The clerk Xia Yingying in the pastry shop can be either male or female, but must be good at communication and enthusiastic. In addition, the store also needs a cashier who also acts as an accountant, who should be called a shopkeeper in this world.

Xia Yingying originally thought of just asking Zhao Wen and the others to come, but when she thought that their appearance would cause panic, she gave up the idea.

It is not easy to recruit the right person. Xia Yingying did what she said. She took a pen and paper and wrote a recruitment notice and posted it on the door of the store so that people passing by could see it at a glance.

The words on the paper were still written with charcoal.

The content of the recruitment notice is as follows:

"A cake shop is looking to hire two actors for store clerks due to store upgrades. Anyone interested please sign up.

Requirements are as follows:

One clerk: aged 15 to 55, lively and cheerful, good at speaking, and has sales experience.

A shopkeeper: he should be able to count, keep accounts, use an abacus, have a cheerful and lively personality, be good at speaking, and have good conduct.

Xia Yingying originally thought that it might be very difficult to find a suitable one, but she didn't expect that someone would come to her door in the afternoon shortly after the paper was posted.

The visitor was a woman in a royal blue dress and a bun, about 20 to 25 years old. She had a beautiful face, but there was an lingering melancholy in front of her.

Xia Yingying thought she was here to buy cakes, so she asked, "Madam, you can try whatever you want and buy it after you try it."

"Madam, are you looking for a shopkeeper? Have you found one?"

The woman spoke in a graceful and elegant manner, which was very pleasant to listen to.

"Yes, we are recruiting, but we haven't found a suitable one yet. Are you here to apply for the position of shopkeeper?" Xia Yingying asked.

"Yes, I have managed several shops at home and also managed the household expenses. I am capable of doing the job of shopkeeper." When she said the last part, the woman's tone was a little anxious, and there was even a hint of tears in her voice.

Xia Yingying didn't know what happened to this woman, so she could only comfort her, "Don't worry, we will comprehensively evaluate whether you are qualified for this position. I will send someone to tell you the result in three days. Where do you live now?"

"I...I'm staying at Yunlai Inn now!" the woman said with some hesitation.

Seeing the woman like this, Xia Yingying thought that something must have happened in her family that forced her to go out to work.

But this is not a charity, and she didn't have a heart of sanctity and decide to hire this woman right away.

"Can you do the accounting? I have a ledger here. How about you help me list it in a cup of tea?"

Xia Yingying had never done any accounting. During this period, she wrote down the store's income and expenditure according to her own understanding, so that it would be easier to settle the accounts when settling accounts. She had always wanted to ask a shopkeeper to help with the accounting, but she forgot about it because she was busy, and only remembered it at this time.

The woman nodded confidently to Xia Yingying, "Yes."

After hearing the woman's answer, Xia Yingying handed the woman the bill she had just sorted out a few days ago.

The only place with a table in the store was the counter, so Xia Yingying took the woman to the counter, asked her to stand there, and started to settle the bill.

Xia Yingying had requested a cup of tea's time, but she had not expected that this woman was so good at accounting that she had sorted out the messy bill Xia Yingying gave her in less than half a minute, making Xia Yingying sigh that being professional is being professional.

"What's your name?" Xia Yingying was already impressed by her professionalism.

"My name is Yang Liuxu. I'm temporarily living in Yunlai Inn. If you finally decide to hire me, can you tell me as soon as possible? I really need a job urgently." Yang Liuxu said.

"Well, that's natural, but I still want to compare, because you are the first person to come to our store for an interview, so it will take a few days for me to reply you. I promise you that I will reply you within three days." Seeing that she was a little anxious, Xia Yingying did not play Tai Chi with her but spoke to Yang Liuxu very frankly.

After Xia Yingying's explanation, Yang Liuxu was not angry, but nodded with understanding.

"Okay." Three days was still too long for Yang Liuxu. She was running out of money and really needed a place with food and accommodation. Even if it wasn't provided, the daily salary would allow her to survive for a while.

"Do you pay employees on a daily basis in your store? Do you provide food and accommodation?" Yang Liuxu asked again.

Xia Yingying was stunned, but thinking that Yang Liuxu was in a very difficult situation, she answered her questions very carefully.

"Once you are hired, you can live in the store if you want, but the environment may be a little worse. You can eat in the store, and your salary can be paid on a daily basis."

"okay, I get it."

Yang Liuxu had no other problems at the moment, so she left.

After Yang Liuxu left, an old customer, Aunt Wang, came into the store.

Aunt Wang is a sociable person and likes to chat about all kinds of gossip with others.

It is human nature to love gossip, and Xia Yingying is no exception.

Xia Yingying heard many things about Qingshui County from Aunt Wang.

As soon as Aunt Wang arrived, she told Xia Yingying about the recent gossip in the county town. Xia Yingying also listened very carefully.

"Yingying, did you know that the son of the county magistrate in Qingshui County and his daughter-in-law are getting divorced?

Our county magistrate's daughter-in-law is truly an extraordinary person. Her family originally owned the famous Yang's shop, and it is said that all the houses in her home are made of gold. She is very rich.

But the Yang family shop had offended Uncle Yang some time ago, and all of their family's property was confiscated by Uncle Yang, and their parents, sons, daughters-in-law, and grandsons were all exiled to the bitter and cold land in the north.

The county magistrate's daughter-in-law begged the magistrate to use his connections to save her family, but the county magistrate only wanted to protect himself and didn't want to get involved in this mess. Not only did he ignore his daughter-in-law, he also asked his son to divorce Yang. His grandfather's daughter-in-law begged him to come forward and save his family now.

It must be said that Yang was a miserable person. She had married the county magistrate's son with great fanfare, but now she had ended up with such a miserable fate.

Now the daughter-in-law's dowry has been seized by the county magistrate's son, and she cannot take a single cent with her.

I heard that the county magistrate's daughter-in-law is looking for a job everywhere, but I don't know if it's because the county magistrate's position is too high, so many shops dare not hire her. Now that daughter-in-law has come out with her daughter, she only has a few dollars on her. It seems that she is begging for food."

After hearing what Aunt Wang said, Xia Yingying fell into deep thought. Could it be that the woman with a different temperament just now was the protagonist of the story Aunt Wang mentioned?

After Aunt Wang finished telling this gossip, she chatted with Xia Yingying about some other things. After that, Aunt Wang left as she had nothing else to say.

Song Ruyi listened on the side and muttered to Xia Yingying.

Song Ruyi still sympathized with Yang, but sympathy was sympathy, and Song Ruyi cared more about Xia Yingying.

"Yingying, you'd better ignore that woman named Yang Liuxu in the future. Now that our pastry shop is opened here, we have to deal with the county magistrate. There's no need to offend the local tyrant for a woman. Listen to what mother said. People should not fight officials. Let's forget about this matter. Even if that woman named Yang Liuxu is really capable, don't let the broad road behind you be blocked."

Song Ruyi persuaded Xia Yingying earnestly.

Song Ruyi never thought that Xia Yingying would not agree. Instead, she shook her head and said, "Mom, don't worry. Although I feel sad for her experience, I don't want to hang myself on a tree."

Song Ru found that Xia Yingying did not agree but gave an ambiguous answer, so he immediately sighed.

If only her son-in-law were here, Xia Yingying would definitely listen to her. "Please vote"
