Chapter 436 Lin Zhinuo's Cowherd Career (2)

The laser light matrix above the head is swinging, drawing light trails in the dark-toned bar space. The light focuses on the middle-aged man wearing a top hat standing on the stage in the middle of the bar. With the saxophone, the whole band has stopped playing, only the long, lingering and melodious saxophone tone is hovering in the bar, like the dusk in the wilderness that no one knows.
However, most people didn't pay attention to the saxophonist who should be the focus, and all cast their eyes on the direction of the bar.

Because Lin Zhinuo stood there.

Where he stands is like a fantasy within reach. The colorful trademark stickers are shining in the entire towering wine wall behind him. The wines of different colors set off his flawless whiteness, and the lights are layered on the glass. , smeared on the edge of Lin Zhinuo's body, looking cold and peaceful.

Like a glacier in the sun.

The dazzling light made everyone unable to take their eyes off.

Dayanwen looked at Lin Zhinuo who was performing fancy bartending at the bar, with a satisfied expression on his face. In the first week after Lin Zhinuo came back, Yinyan's turnover returned to its peak, attracting countless Women spend a lot of money for him, ordering more than 8 Louis XIII is like ordering a glass of boiled water, just to hear Lin Zhinuo say "thank you" to them
Without seeing it with my own eyes, Dayanwen really couldn't believe that these seemingly mature young women would be so crazy.

Gao Yuemei resisted the urge to rush up to ask Lin Zhinuo why she didn't contact her when she came back, and she was also full of doubts: "Is he really a liar? Then why didn't my sister-in-law call the police? And he was allowed to return to Yinyan? What is it for?" At this moment, Gao Yuemei wanted to ask Lin Zhinuo too many questions, but she didn't know how to ask them. She turned her eyes away from Lin Zhinuo, turned to Big Eye Wen and said, "Wen Manager, my reserved seat."

Dayanwen bowed quickly and made a gesture of invitation, "Miss Gao, this way!"

After finishing the big-eyed text, he straightened up and took the lead to walk towards a booth near the bar. Logically speaking, it should be the most moderate distance from the circular stage in the middle, and the booth next to the window is the best, where you can browse Along the bustling street scene, you can see the river of cars and the sea of ​​people flowing under your eyes, and you can also enjoy the performance of the band from a perfect angle.

But because of Lin Zhinuo's existence, the bar counter is the most in demand now, followed by the booths near the bar counter, which are booked out early every day, not to mention that today is the weekend.Of course, Dayanwen knew why Gao Yuemei came here, and specially reserved the most golden seat for her, and the booth closest to Lin Zhinuo usually had to be snatched.

The decoration of Yinyan is not a traditional bar style, but more home-like, so the booths are not closed, separated only by transparent gauze, the curtain-like crystal lamps surround the booths, and the purple velvet sofa sandwiches a rectangular black A marble coffee table with a delicate silver candlestick lamp on it.

It doesn't look like a bar at all, but like a corner of a living room for a very tasteful and elegant lady.

When Gao Yuemei and Shen Youyi walked into the booth under the leadership of Da Yanwen, the women at the two tables next to them were looking at them with hostile eyes, which made Gao Yuemei and Shen Youyi somewhat puzzled.

There were already four bottles of Louis XIII on the tea table, Dayanwen handed the wine list and snack list to Gao Yuemei, and at the same time whispered: "Miss Gao, it doesn't matter if you don't want to drink Louis XIII, these four bottles are placed by me Generally speaking, our booth will not be reserved for more than nine o’clock, if I don’t arrange it like this, some regular customers next to me will disturb me to death.”

Gao Yuemei looked around, all the seats were occupied, but the whole Yinyan didn't look crowded, it wasn't as lively as she saw when she came to Yinyan before, Gao Yuemei stretched out her hand to caress the black hip leather skirt and sat down Sitting on the sofa, he asked suspiciously: "Is Yinyan's business so good now? Why do I feel that there are not as many people as before!"

Dayanwen said proudly: "Don't tell me, it seems that our Yinyan is not as lively as before, but now the turnover is much higher than before. After Lin Zhinuo came back, he changed our marketing strategy here. I used to go down every day to solicit customers, but now they are all customers begging me to give me a seat.”

When Gao Yuemei heard that it was Lin Zhinuo who changed the marketing strategy of voice and face, she immediately asked curiously: "Huh? What's going on? Could it be that he has the ability to turn stones into gold?"

"It's true. Since last weekend, our seats here only accept reservations. Men who have not made a reservation will not be accepted. If you are a woman, you can arrange a number, but there may not be a seat. If you really don't have a seat, then I'm sorry. Please book in advance tomorrow!"

After a pause, Dayanwen said word by word: "Lin Zhinuo calls this selection of precise target customers. Anyway, their cultured people do everything in a set way. I can't understand it at all."

Gao Yuemei was a little surprised and asked: "Huh? That means Yinyan only accepts reservations now? No individual customers?"

"Isn't this just a membership system, and there's nothing special about it?" Shen Youyi said while holding his chin.

Dayanwen smiled, and shook his fingers, "It's here that you're great. Other places charge you for money. If you charge a lot, you'll be allowed in. But our Yinyan is now a bar with quality! Customers are also accepted, but they have to fill out the questionnaire”

"Questionnaire?" Even Shen Youyi was a little surprised.

Da Yanwen nodded, "These are the rules set by Lin Zhinuo. Last week, there were often grabbing seats, especially at the bar. You don't know how crazy those women are. We just came here to clean at 07:30 , they just sat at the bar counter motionless, didn't drink much, just waited for Lin Zhinuo to go to work. We still have some old drinkers here and there, just to appreciate Lin Zhinuo's bartending skills, but every time they come to sit I couldn’t get a seat, so I made two comments. Lin Zhinuo said that there must be reforms. I asked the proprietress, and the proprietress said that everything was according to Lin Zhinuo. So Lin Zhinuo made a lot of rules. If you want to sit at the bar, you must fill in the The questionnaire, what kind of questionnaire is it, is actually an exam, and it not only contains cocktail knowledge, but also mixed with current affairs questions, literature questions and music questions, even those who have done it say it is a difficult one.”

Speaking of "difficult horse", Big Eyed Wen coughed, feeling that he shouldn't say such vulgar words in front of two such beautiful ladies, paused before continuing: "Always is a holy book to me, I can’t understand it. Now if you want to sit at the bar, you must score more than [-] points in the test. If you don’t have a reservation, if you want to come in, you can also try to answer the questionnaire, and you can come in if you can answer [-] points or more. Those who can answer with full marks can drink at our Yinyan for free for one night."

This kind of marketing plan is very innovative, but it must be when Yinyan is very attractive. In terms of Yinyan's previous operating conditions, it is too risky to implement such rules. Of course, judging from Dayanwen's expression, it is very Success, which also proves that Lin Zhinuo is an extremely intelligent and decisive person, Gao Yuemei couldn't help sighing: "Is this okay?"

When asked by the proprietress' sister-in-law, Dayanwen naturally knew everything, "Of course, there was some influence in the first two days, and it felt like the bar was empty of people, but the turnover did not decrease particularly much. The strange thing is that later There are more and more phone calls, and some people come here especially for the purpose of making papers, and somehow, our business here is also increasing."

Shen Youyi also found it quite interesting, and asked with great interest: "Does that mean you have to pass the exam if you want to drink in your Yinyan?"

Dayanwen said triumphantly: "It's just that drinking at the bar requires an exam, but this is also the only one in the country. The paper that Lin Zhinuo gave the day before yesterday was also trending on Weibo. Many people said that he can get full marks for this paper. You can marry directly regardless of appearance. A girl who can get full marks can marry directly regardless of appearance, because he (she) must be a schoolmaster with a lot of interest in life! Our Lin Zhinuo also followed the hot search because of his long He is so handsome, now many reporters want to interview him, but he refuses to accept, and even film and television companies and modeling companies contact him, but he doesn’t respond.”

Then he glanced at the women at the table beside him, lowered his head and said in a low voice, "See? The next table is from Shonan Satellite TV, and the short and fat woman sitting in the middle is the producer of the program group "Good Upward" Every time I come here, I buy at least two bottles of Louis XIII from Lin Zhinuo, and I have told me several times that she can give Lin Zhinuo a lot of money and ask Lin Zhinuo to contact her, but Lin Zhinuo doesn't care at all."

"Why? Doesn't being a celebrity make more money than being a bartender?" Gao Yuemei asked pretending not to care. In fact, she really wanted to turn her head to look at Lin Zhinuo, but she purposely chose to sit with her back facing Lin Zhinuo. Now It was a bit embarrassing to turn around, so I could only suppress the impulse in my heart.

"That's what I told him too! I said it's a pity to give in to our bar with your talent. Although the proprietress also values ​​you, it's not as fast as being a celebrity to make money! Look at that XX ice, XX just, Every one of them is worth tens of millions of tax evasion, and with your appearance, it is unreasonable not to be popular!" Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, the big-eyed text continued with emotion: "However, Lin Zhinuo said that being a celebrity is too boring. My life is to never go with the flow, run counter to others, go beyond low-level tastes, and capture the unique beauty in the world. Therefore, enough money is enough, too much, but it is a burden”

Seeing Gao Yuemei's and Shen Youyi's expressions were strangely silent, Dayanwen laughed at himself and said with a self-deprecating smile: "Ordinary people like me can't understand the burden. I wish I could be overwhelmed by money."

Lin Zhinuo's words reached Gao Yuemei's heart inexplicably. Although she is actually a person who goes with the flow and goes with the situation, she especially admires the kind of maverick strong man. She took a look at the four bottles on the coffee table. Louis XIII, handed the wine list to Da Yanwen and said, "Then let's drink Louis XIII! We bought all four bottles."

After speaking, Gao Yuemei handed the menu to Shen Youyi, "What do you want to eat, you can order."

Shen Youyi waved his hand, "I don't care, let Manager Wen take care of the arrangement! But can I trouble Manager Wen to bring a copy of the questionnaire from Lin Zhinuo?"

Dayanwen was not surprised by Shen Youyi's request, nodded and smiled: "No problem, but Miss Shen, don't be depressed if you can't do it. In fact, there are very few people who can answer ninety percent, and many people only answer eighty percent." Lin Zhinuo also awarded ninety points."

Shen Youyi smiled, and said in a gentle manner: "I'm just curious, and I don't have to answer."

Da Yanwen nodded, got up with the wine list and menu, and said to Gao Yuemei: "Miss Gao, there is no need to buy four bottles of Louis XIII, the two of you can't finish it, why don't you open a bottle first!"

Gao Yuemei said: "Only four bottles, if you can't finish it, keep it here!"

Dayanwen didn't persuade him much, and replied: "That's good." Just as he was about to leave,

Gao Yuemei hesitated for a moment, but still opened her mouth and shouted: "That. Manager Wen. Of my four bottles of wine, two bottles belong to Lin Zhinuo."

Da Yanwen blinked at Gao Yuemei, "All four bottles are his! I get a dividend in the bar!"

--------------

Cheng Mo stood at the bar bar and mixed drinks. Since adopting the rules of answering questionnaires to screen drinkers, he has relaxed a lot. He doesn't have to face those eyes who want to take off all his clothes every day. Now he can sit in front of the bar counter Yes, they are all highly educated drinkers, and they really like cocktails, but most of them are men.

Cheng Mo originally thought that the tips for him would be much less, but to his surprise, these men were also very generous. For them, it is very difficult to find Yinyan in Xingcheng who has a high style, many beauties, and good wine. Good bar too.

Those who can answer Chengmo's questionnaire are all gold-collar workers with an annual salary of more than one million. They even think that with Chengmo's level of bartending, the price of wine is too cheap. They have suggested that Chengmo raise the price of wine several times. Afraid that Yinyan would not be able to continue his business, Cheng Mo did not continue to work as a bartender here.

After Chengmo rejected the price increase proposal, he consciously gave a lot of tips every time, and often brought customers over. The guests he brought were also high-level people, including many foreign executives from foreign companies. Even these foreign guests Everyone was full of praise for Cheng Mo's cocktails, and several people even suggested Cheng Mo to participate in the world-class bartending master competition.

Cheng Mo naturally laughed it off, saying that he was just a part-time job.

At the moment, Cheng Mo is helping a white-haired foreigner named Davis tune a martini. Since he was brought here once by others, this old man has come every day. In order to sit at the bar, he even troubled his secretary to put him in a martini. All the questionnaires were translated into English, and I did them all in person. After I finished, I had to praise the papers written by Cheng Mo, which is really great.

In fact, being able to sit in front of the bar and drink now has become a kind of honor. This kind of honor is more high-end than purely rich, but a sense of superiority from IQ and taste, because Cheng Mo's test paper involves a lot of things. It's too broad. Although it's all about culture and entertainment, the knowledge points are quite small, and it's really hard to answer without any level.

And those who can answer, sitting together in front of the bar, can easily chat together, several people have become drinking friends because of this, these are unexpected by Cheng Mo.

Cheng Mo usually doesn't talk very much, but he doesn't mind chatting with these people who are not only intelligent but also very experienced in life, so he is chatting with Davis about Huami's economy and why the trade friction between the two countries is so acute.

At this time, Dayanwen arranged for Gao Yuemei and Shen Youyi, ran to the side of the bar, called "Arnuo", then winked at Cheng Mo, telling him to come closer.

Cheng Mo unhurriedly adjusted Davis' martini first, and after placing it in front of Davis, he walked to the side of the bar and asked, "What's wrong?"

Dayanwen said excitedly: "Miss Gao is here!"

"Yes! I saw it." Cheng Mo replied indifferently.

"Fuck! It's obvious that Miss Gao came here for you. She didn't come here once when you were not in Yinyan. Don't miss such a good girl! Don't think that she is just a rich daughter! Back then, his brother was nothing. Wealthy people, they don’t know much about these things. When I went to Brother Gao’s house to drink a few years ago, their family still lived in a small flat floor! As long as you can pass the test of the proprietress, I’ll tell you that you really have a chance "

"I think the proprietress actually values ​​you quite a bit. The only downside is that she is a bit inappropriate for her age, but a third-year girl is holding gold bricks. Ms. Gao is not just a gold brick, it is a gold mine!" Big-eyed Wen Jian Chengmo remained the same With an expressionless face, he said earnestly.

Cheng Mo nodded, "Okay, I see."

Dayanwen raised his middle finger at Cheng Mo, and said, "Damn, you kid, you will be at a disadvantage if you don't listen to the old man!"

"Brother Wen, I know what to do. I'm going to bartending first, and I have a lot of orders in my hands!"

Dayanwen said helplessly: "What's so important about the list? Miss Gao, don't you want to accompany me?"

Cheng Mo shook his head.

Seeing Cheng Mo's indifferent expression, Dayanwen said helplessly, "They still want your questionnaire. When you grade it later, remember to put down the water so they don't have to pass."

Cheng Mo turned his head and glanced at Gao Yuemei's booth. She was sitting with her back to him, sitting side by side with Shen Youyi. Because she knew that Gao Yuemei and Shen Youyi were coming today, today's paper focused on literature. It should be a bit difficult for me, but with the help of Mr. Shen, it is not a big problem.

Thinking that Teacher Shen usually marks his papers, and today it was his turn to correct Teacher Shen's papers, Cheng Mo felt a little strange.
