Chapter 23 Housekeeping Work Looking at this old guy up close, he is a little different from an ordinary old man.
His skin looked a little more delicate, not as dull as other old men, but with a full glow.
A face with a slightly unhappy look, as if someone owes him millions.
Chen Xiao naturally heard that this old man's voice was exactly the one he heard on the phone twice.
The old man seemed to have a strange temperament, and after he finished speaking coldly, he lowered his head and continued to read, and finished reading a chapter without hurrying, and then he carefully took out a thin bookmark carved in ivory from his pocket and sandwiched it into the chapter page he read, and then closed the book, raised his head and looked at Chen Xiao.
"You are Chen Xiao" The old man snorted, his voice was dry, but he did not hide his dissatisfaction: "Hmph, it's just a little kid."
Do those guys think I'm a babysitter?"
Although he said it very politely, Chen Xiao was not annoyed that this old man's hair was gray, and it was more than enough to be his grandfather in terms of age, and it was not ashamed to be called a "little brat" by him.
An old man and a young man looked at each other with wide eyes for a while, the old man's eyes became brighter and brighter, as if he wanted to read something from Chen Xiao's eyes, but after staring at Chen Xiao for a long time, Chen Xiao's eyes did not dodge and retreat at all.
"Hmph, boy, it seems to be a stubborn temper too."
The old man's voice was a little softer: "Okay, find a place to sit down yourself."
As he spoke, he casually pointed in the store.
Chen Xiao didn't shirk it, and directly found a sofa closest to the counter and sat down.
The old man took out two cans of beer from under the counter and sat in front of Chen Xiao, he was wearing a flower shirt, but his body was as thin as a bamboo pole, and the wide shirt was swaying, as if it would be blown away by the wind at any time.
"Drink, you're welcome."
The old man opened a can of beer and handed it to Chen Xiao: "I don't like others to interrupt when I speak, so if you want to ask anything, put up with it for me first."
My old man's time is precious, and after I'm done, I will allow you to ask questions, you can only ask questions, understand?"
Chen Xiao took a sip of beer and nodded, although this place is full of weirdness, this old man doesn't look like a normal person.
However, since it was the stronghold of the supernatural organization "Service Society", Chen Xiao had already been mentally prepared.
"My surname is Ai, Edward."
The old man opened his mouth and said his name.
"Edward" Chen Xiao couldn't help but interject. syllable I saw the old man sitting on the sofa opposite, flicking his empty finger at himself, Chen Xiao had just finished saying such a short sentence, and he felt a hard blow on his head, and a hot pain suddenly appeared on his forehead Seeing that the old man's hand was still so far away from him, the pain of being knocked on his forehead just now was clear.
Relying on the magic power of snapping his fingers, Chen Xiao couldn't help but widen his eyes, looking at the old man's thick and short fingers.
"I said that I don't like others to interject when I speak, why don't young people have a memory" The old man had a gloomy face: "Also, it's not Edward, it's Edward, it's Edward's wormwood's wormwood, Virtue's virtue, Huaxia's Hua remembers."
Next time you call me by name, be careful that I knock out your front teeth. ” When the old man spoke, his tone was clearly a little disdainful and impatient, and his eyes were full of arrogance and arrogance, as if he could sit here and talk to Chen Xiao, he had already given the other party a lot of face.
Although Chen Xiao was beaten very painfully, considering the identity and age of the other party, he endured it.
"Your situation, that little bastard of Lei Hu has already told me.
Although I don't like to do this kind of work as a nanny, but after all, I am also a retired person in the organization, and I can't ignore the things that are assigned to me, so you kid will ask for more blessings in the future, hum, my old man's temper is not very good, and you will have to suffer by my side in the future. ” Chen Xiao frowned, his eyes were a little puzzled, Edward saw that he had something to say, so he waved his hand: "What do you want to say, say it" "Lei Hu promised me that I was just here to do a job, and it has nothing to do with your organization, and it is a normal person's job, if you want me to join your organization, it won't work."
"Aha" The old man Edward laughed instead, squinting his eyes and looking at Chen Xiao: "You are holding the shelf upside down, don't worry, boy, hum, in our organization, how many people cry and shout and beg can't get in."
That little bastard Lei Hu values you, and my old man won't treat you as a baby. ” "That's good."
Chen Xiao breathed a sigh of relief: "What is my job?"
"This is it."
The old man waved his hand imposingly: "This is the coffee shop."
You'll take care of it for me.
I didn't want you to come so early, but I suddenly have something to do and leave for a few days.
That's why I had to call you first. ” As he spoke, he glanced at Chen Xiao, and his eyes were a little uneasy: "A child of your age, I don't know if you can do the work here." ” Chen Xiao thought for a moment: "I have worked in restaurants and fast food restaurants, and I have also worked in coffee shops, and I can also make coffee.
Then he looked at the huge empty shop hall and couldn't help but smile: "Besides, I guess the work here is not too busy." ” "Hmph, don't get complacent too early, do you think it's so simple" Old Edward shook his head and sneered, and then coughed: "That's the treatment, three thousand a month, two free meals a day."
In my absence, you were all on your own as the cashier, waiter, and cook.
To put it simply, it is a bare-rod commander. ” "Well, if there aren't many guests, I'll be able to handle it alone."
Chen Xiao nodded: "I will work hard." ” "Don't say it too soon.
I usually don't have many guests here, but all the old customers who come here are some old customers, and those old customers are troublesome guys, you have to be careful to serve, don't anger people, otherwise, most of those guys have a bad temper, if you get into trouble, but you have to suffer. ” As he spoke, the old man had already stood up: "Lei Hu must have told you that my place is a place similar to the placement of retired personnel."
Many of my regular customers here are old people from the service agency.
It can be said that it is basically not a normal human hum, and you will understand it slowly. ” Syllable.
The old man suddenly shook his hand, and a bunch of keys fell in front of Chen Xiao.
"The door of the store, the warehouses at the back, and the cash register door, and a small safe at the back, all the keys are here, I'm too lazy to introduce them to you one by one, you can find them yourself after I leave."

The old man coughed twice, and said leisurely: "I shouldn't be away for too long, but I can't say for sure, anyway, there is money in the safe, and if I haven't come back on the day of paycheck, you can take the salary yourself." ” Chen Xiao stared at the old man with a strange expression Even the key to the safe was thrown to me, where is there a boss who trusts his employees like this "I'd like to tell you one more thing.
My shop, it doesn't matter if you open the door or not, you don't have to open the door during the day, but I only have one requirement, that is, every Thursday night must be open for business, even if no customers arrive at night, you must ensure that it is open until twelve o'clock and one minute, you understand, as long as you do this, then the other days of the week, I don't care what you do. ” Chen Xiao couldn't help but be thundered.
There is also this kind of business, as long as one night a week, and then you can get a salary of 3,000 a month "Don't worry, what you do is normal work, serving tea and water, collecting money to make coffee.
I won't let you do any special tasks, let you do something else, do you have that ability" After the old man finished speaking, he glanced at the clock on the wall and frowned: "It's not early, I'm leaving."
Remember what I said.
Usually when you visit the store, if you are bored, you can read the books I put under the counter casually, but be careful not to lose them, they are all collector's editions. ” After saying that, the old man stood up so easily and walked to the door with a big grin.
Chen Xiao was stunned for a moment, he had never seen such an irresponsible interview since he was working "Please wait a minute."
Chen Xiao couldn't help but scream.
"What's the matter" Old Edward turned around, and looked impatient: "I said it clearly enough, the work is also very simple, even idiots can do it well, what else do you not understand" "That's right."
Chen Xiao thought for a moment: "The two rows of words at the door" Chen Xiao's face was a little ridiculous: "If a beautiful woman comes, do you really want to be exempt?"
"Of course" The old man's eyes lit up, and he immediately puffed up his chest, and said proudly: "This is my old man's signboard, and you also remember that if there is a beautiful woman who comes to drink and patronize, you are not allowed to charge money."
Chen Xiao nodded helplessly, but thought in her heart: Beauty, I haven't even seen a female rabbit all the way to this kind of unfinished commercial area, and I am half a breath away from bankruptcy, where will there be a beautiful woman who comes here to drink coffee It's a pity that Chen Xiao didn't expect that his words were too early and too arbitrary.
In fact, he should have realized that since he knew these people, he could no longer use common sense to measure these people and these things Smash the ticket, smash the ticket Say three words to all the brothers and sisters who smashed the tickets: enough to be interesting Say four words to the brothers and sisters who didn't smash the ticket: Hurry up :
