I opened a shopping mall in Xihuan
Chapter 131
Givellos is a civil servant of the City Council.
It is said that he is a civil servant, but he is actually a handyman who runs errands at the bottom. His daily work is only to help his boss organize documents in the office, run errands upstairs and downstairs to deliver documents, and occasionally go out to help his boss pick up a letter or buy something. I didn't do anything, but I did everything, and I was very tired every time it was time to get off work.
Although the work is boring and tiring, Givellos is actually very satisfied with the job.
He is still very young and has no pressure to support his family. A monthly salary of [-] silver coins is enough for him. After paying the monthly rent of [-] silver coins, the remaining money can not only feed and clothe him, but also From time to time, I go to the hot pot restaurant with my colleagues to have a good meal.
He was not from a wealthy family, only his father had worked as a housekeeper for a senior official for more than ten years. Although he was dismissed later due to health reasons, he also received a certain amount of education during those ten years. Therefore, he was lucky enough to enter the City Council at this age and become a small clerk.
In order to save some rent, Givellos chose to live in the Leopold block in the old city.This block is quite far from the central area where the city government building is located. For this reason, he spends at least half an hour on the way to work every day. He used to complain about this and often considered whether to change his residence. , but since the chicken shop opened on Nightingale Street, he has had no complaints.
Although he had to get up early every day, he was able to buy a limited breakfast that was not repeated every day at the fried chicken shop, and ate a hot and delicious breakfast all the way to work. This feeling of happiness immediately offset his dissatisfaction with lack of sleep.
Today is the same. Jivelus bought a new set of hamburger and hot milk from the fried chicken shop in winter. Eating delicious burgers and drinking hot milk, he walked on the street in the early morning, as if the time had been accelerated.
He was finishing his breakfast just as he was about to enter the downtown block.
Givellos casually threw the packaging bag into the trash can in front of a certain store, then took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth, and walked unhurriedly through the alley next to the art gallery to the City Hall Square.
As soon as he turned the intersection, he looked at the square in front of him and suddenly realized something was wrong. Why are there so many people in the square at this time of the season?
As he quickened his pace, a stunning glass building slowly appeared in the front left of his vision.
When he saw the whole picture of the building, Jivelos couldn't help but opened his mouth wide in surprise. While staring at the pure and flawless glass building with wide eyes, he was unconsciously carried forward by the crowd.
After a while, he followed the crowd and stood on the border of the square, looking up at this strange building in a daze.
"It turned out to be made of colorless glass. It's so spectacular. It's just like the temple where the gods live in the story." A familiar voice suddenly sighed.
Givellus turned his head and glanced, and found that standing on his left happened to be his familiar colleague Sarus.
It is not accurate to say that it is a colorless glass building. The whole building is indeed made of pure and colorless glass. However, this glass is not completely transparent like the glass door of a grocery store, but is like a layer of hoarfrost. Generally, with some vague texture.
Because of this special texture, under the slightly gloomy sky at the moment, at first glance, this building seems to be in a drizzle, with a thin layer of water mist inside and outside, as if there will be water droplets along the road at any time. The glass slides down, which is very artistic.
"I heard that Xia Zhisen's boss might buy this apartment building before, but I didn't expect it to be true!" Colleague Sarus tilted his head with emotion, and then bumped his shoulder and asked, "Do you think Its floors are much higher, although it is a five-story building, it is almost as tall as our seven-story city hall building."
Givellos agreed: "It is indeed much higher."
"It's amazing. If I saw it built with my own eyes, I might not be so surprised, but in one night, such a miraculous change took place in a good apartment building. I'm really not used to it, no, not so much I’m not used to it, it’s better to say it’s a surprise, this house is too unique, and it’s not certain that it will become a landmark building in our Los Angeles city in the future.” Sarus clicked his tongue, “I don’t know, I don’t have a chance to go up and have a look, The inside seems prettier than the outside.”
Jivelos nodded in agreement and said, "I don't know what this building will be used for."
"It's about opening a hotel."
"Hotel?" Jivelos didn't have this concept, and his first reaction was: "Is it a high-end tavern?"
"No, have you seen the recruitment notice posted at the entrance? Oh, by the way, you must have missed it when you first came here. Now you can't squeeze in. There are people on the third and third floors outside the entrance!"
Sarus seemed to have come early and knew more, so he said to his colleagues with a sense of superiority, "The recruitment notice was divided into many departments to recruit people, including the catering department and the room department. , the front office department, the security department, the logistics department, the cleaning department, I roughly calculated that at least 80 people will be recruited, which is almost catching up with the number of people in our courtyard."
"There are so many," Jivellus took a breath, "so what is it for?"
"I saw that there are dedicated doormen, porters, and room cleaners. It should be a hotel similar to the Navia Hotel next door." Salus said his judgment: "But the staff of Xia Zhisen It has to be much more detailed, maybe there will be a difference.”
Jivelos nodded thoughtfully.
"Did you just look at the glass building, and didn't you notice that the old house next to the art museum has also changed?" Beside Sarus, a stranger asked.
"I've seen it a long time ago," Sarus replied, "It's just that compared with this building, that house is really inconspicuous."
Givellos really didn't notice the changes on the opposite side. He turned his head and tiptoed in a diagonal direction for a few glances, and he saw a brand new small white building appearing next to the art gallery.
"I think that house is quite beautiful. I've never seen such a wall. I don't know what kind of shop it is." Givellos said to himself.
Sarus heard his grunt, and immediately answered: "I went to see it, and there was also a recruitment notice at the door of the store. It only recruited six salespersons and one supervisor. It should be an ordinary store."
"Is that so..."
"However, the supervisor's salary is really high enough. Eighty silver coins a month is almost double my salary," Sarrus sighed, "If it weren't for his position as a supervisor requiring proficiency in at least three languages, You also need to have experience in managing a store, which I really want to try.”
"His salesperson's salary is also high, [-] silver a month," another passer-by lamented, "It's a pity that I can't write, otherwise I would try it too."
Forty silver... Jivelus thought to himself that this was the same as his monthly salary.
He couldn't help being a little moved, but when he looked down at the uniform representing the officials of the City Council, he gave up the idea.
It's only forty silver, not much difference, and besides wearing this uniform, even the lowest suit, outsiders will always give him more respect when they see it.
Thinking about this, he might as well work hard, save money, and go back to Xia Zhisen's clothing store to order better quality work clothes.
Not being tempted by the outside world, Jivellus clenched his fists for his firm belief. Immediately after he noticed that the crowd around him began to disperse, he immediately realized that he had been standing here for too long, and if he didn't go to work, he would It's time to be late.
"Hey, stop chatting, we're going to be late!" Givelos slapped Sarus' arm abruptly to remind him, then he carried his bag through the crowd and ran towards the city hall building.
·
Feeling that the building she renovated in the city center would inevitably attract countless people to watch, You Xia didn't go out today.
In the early morning, after visiting the hotel, he racked his brains to write two recruitment notices, and he didn't return home until six o'clock in the morning.
Having not slept for half the night, You Xia was quite sleepy, and fell asleep as soon as his head touched the pillow, and it was almost noon when he woke up again.
Maybe it's the magical power of the winter quilt. You Xia is usually a hardworking person, but today she couldn't help but get out of bed, just leaning on the pillow, idly opening the luxury store in the game mall, browsing the newly unlocked commodity.
You Xia had already read the product unlocking rules of the luxury store last night. It is still the old rule. Every [-] items sold can unlock a new luxury category.
At present, the three types of initial unlocks are "headwear", "neckwear" and "watches".
Among them, "head accessories" includes four categories: "hair crowns", "hats", "hair accessories" and "ear accessories", and these subcategories contain several different types of commodities, which is a wide variety and detailed classification. category.
You Xia briefly browsed the mall last night, and the products contained in the first column "hair crown" are enough to dazzle him, and these products are even more expensive than each other, and the purchase price of the cheapest hair crown is It costs dozens of silver coins, and the system price is directly doubled, which is worthy of being a luxury.
You Xia had originally planned to add new products one by one slowly, but now that he saw the purchase prices of these accessories, he became passive and had to do new ones slowly. After all, he is very poor now and really wants to buy in large quantities. Well, if these valuables cannot be sold, the funds in his hands should not be able to circulate.
After seeing the "headdress", it was the turn of the "neck ornament".
According to the rules of the system, You Xia originally thought that the following categories should be simpler, but he didn't expect that as soon as he opened the product page of "Necklace", he was so surprised by its internal classification that he was speechless.
A seemingly narrow "neck ornament" actually includes seven categories: "scarf", "silk scarf", "shawl", "tie", "necklace", "pendant" and "collar". It is almost catching up with the classification posture of the cosmetics store at the beginning.
At first when he saw "scarves", "silk scarves" and "shawls", Youxia thought he had read them wrong. After all, clothing stores and grocery stores also have these things. Then he opened the mall to take a closer look at the products, and he was speechless immediately. It can be said.
There is a big difference between silk scarves in luxury stores and silk scarves in grocery stores. As for where the difference is, You Xiaguang can’t tell the difference from the pictures. Anyway, the price difference between them is more than dozens of times. up.
Thankfully, the last category of "watches" is much simpler than the first two. It is only divided into two categories: "men's watches" and "women's watches". The types of watches included are more detailed, but compared with the first two, this category is relatively clear.
The purchase price of watches is also very expensive, there is no doubt about this, not to mention other things, such things as watches are luxury goods in this world.
According to You Xia's understanding, mechanical clocks are already popular in the world's big cities, and basically people with a little savings can afford them, but small mechanical watches like pocket watches and watches are still quite expensive items. It is spread in the upper class that if ordinary people can buy a cheap pocket watch, they can keep it at home as a family heirloom.
Having said that, the aesthetics of the system is still very good. Be it the accessories or watches, they are all very beautiful and have their own characteristics.
You Xia flipped through the product pages for a long time, and finally chose six luxury items that he thought were the most exquisite and gorgeous to buy.
Afterwards, with these six luxuries, he ran to the next room and knocked on the door of the study.
After a while, Li Youmen came and opened the door.
Seeing the cub's uncontrollably raised mouth corners and the deliberately disguised innocent eyes, Li Youmen suddenly had a bad premonition.
He raised his face intentionally and asked, "What's wrong?"
You Xia smiled at him, held a very luxurious sapphire hair crown in both hands and slowly raised it, and asked: "What do you think of this, is it beautiful?"
Li Youmen looked down at the hair crown, the olive leaf branches made of gold set off the sapphire in the center, it was indeed very beautiful, especially the gold design, which was very in line with his aesthetics, so he nodded and said: "Not bad."
"It will definitely look better on your head," You Xia said with a smile, "It's called 'Long Night's Dream', and it's the main item in my new store. If you're free this afternoon, can you be the poster model for my new product promotion?"
"..."
Li Youmen hesitated to speak.
After a moment of silence, he looked at Yuxia pleadingly, and the adult elf who was rounding off to four hundred years old finally nodded helplessly.
It is said that he is a civil servant, but he is actually a handyman who runs errands at the bottom. His daily work is only to help his boss organize documents in the office, run errands upstairs and downstairs to deliver documents, and occasionally go out to help his boss pick up a letter or buy something.
