I opened a shopping mall in Xihuan
Chapter 36
The next day, just as the sun was rising, You Xia went to the grocery store with a baby dragon in his arms and a sleepy face, and sat on a chair in the checkout area before eight o'clock, waiting for the applicants to come to the door.
In fact, he is not sure if anyone will come today, but he still has to wait. While he is waiting, he can feed the little dragon cub a breakfast, and by the way, he can also use the "History of Race Evolution in the First Era" he learned yesterday. I recited it.
The adult elves said that they have to ask questions in class at night, although there will be no punishment for not being able to answer, but Youxia will feel very ashamed.
When he was reciting the important events of the first era, he caught a glimpse of a thin man walking in the door from the corner of his eye.
You Xia raised his head and looked at the man's neatly combed short brown and black hair and clean clothes, and politely got up and said, "Hi, are you here for an interview?"
The man was a little nervous, cleared his throat and said, "Yes, Your Excellency, my name is Muriel. I came here after seeing the recruitment notice at the entrance of your shop."
"What job do you want to interview for?"
"The cashier."
"A cashier needs to be proficient in arithmetic and writing."
"Yes, I can."
"Then don't you mind if I test you a few questions?" When it comes to the requirement of being good at arithmetic, You Xia has no choice. Although the game system can settle the turnover and profit of a day, it cannot replace the real cashier work after all.
In the past, there were so many types of food in restaurants, and the prices were relatively uniform. It was relatively simple to calculate, but the products in grocery stores were more complicated. The same thing could have several prices, but the system didn’t even have a computer. Can only rely on the most traditional manual calculations, so he had to recruit a cashier who is proficient in simple calculations.
Muriel is quite confident about this, nodded and said: "Yes."
Hearing this, You Xia took out a primary school application test paper prepared last night, handed it to him together with a pen and said, "There are ten questions in total, each question is ten points, as long as you can answer more than eight questions correctly, I will hire you." .”
Muriel took the test paper and glanced at the first question of the test paper, and he felt a feeling of blackness in front of him.
"If you feel uncomfortable, you can read the questions a few more times. In fact, they are all very simple questions." You Xia gave up his seat while talking, and stood at the door with the book to recite the history of the mainland.
After reading the topic, Muriel's mind is now full of "stocks and shipments from warehouse A and warehouse B". He glanced at the black lizard sitting on the corner of the table and gnawed chicken legs wholeheartedly, but didn't pay much attention. He turned and sat on the chair, wrinkled. Mei began to solve the problem.
At the beginning, he was really confused about this type of question full of confusing behavior, and couldn't help but feel impatient. Later, according to the prompt of the elf, after reading the question several times, he gradually understood the core content of the question.
In fact, once the idea of doing the question is clarified, there is no difficulty in this question. He skillfully used his calculation skills to write the answer on paper.
The following questions are basically the same routine, either the topic is a bit more complicated, or the calculation is more involved. Muriel calms down and calculates calmly, and he can always come up with an answer.
About half an hour later, he finished all ten questions, got up and said, "Your Excellency, I'm done."
While he was working on the questions, two or three people came to apply for salespersons. You Xia asked them some questions, and found that either they were completely illiterate, or they were dull and not good at communication, and they were not suitable for this job, so they all bluntly said.
Immediately, he read and reviewed the test papers that Muriel had prepared.
Overall, Muriel's calculation skills are good, and only one of the ten questions is wrong. The wrong question is also because he set a small trap that the other party didn't consider. All in all, he can be hired.
"Congratulations, Mr. Muriel, you've been hired." Youxia smiled and returned the test paper to him, "I'll leave this test question for you as a souvenir. Remember to come to work at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."
Unexpectedly, he passed the test so easily, and Muriel was overjoyed: "Okay, Your Excellency."
You Xia added: "However, in order to test your work attitude, there will be a one-month probationary period at the beginning. During the probationary period, the salary will be settled daily, one silver coin per day, and the remaining ten silver coins will be paid at the end of the month, is that okay?"
"No problem." The daily salary is what he desires the most at the moment. Muriel leaned over to Youxia and said, "Thank you very much, Your Excellency, I am looking forward to working for you in the future!"
"You're welcome, I hope we can cooperate happily."
Watching Muriel's back leave, Youxia glanced at the clock on the wall, it was 15 minutes before class started at nine o'clock.
So he sat back at the cash register, wiped the mouth of the dragon cub after breakfast, and then continued to pick up the book to read and recite.
When the clock on the wall struck nine o'clock, and still no one applied for the job, You Xia planned to lock the door and go upstairs to class.
And just when he closed the book and hugged him and got up to close the door, three people suddenly rushed in at the door.
Walking in the front was Diss with a cloth towel wrapped around his head. His face was ruddy, he was out of breath, and his forehead was covered with sweat, as if he had just arrived from somewhere.
Behind him stood two young girls who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old.
You Xia didn't look carefully at the person behind him, and asked, "Mr. Dees, why are you here?"
"Sorry for being late," Diss said, wiping off his sweat, "I heard that you are recruiting salespeople here, can you two?"
As he spoke, he stepped aside and introduced the two girls, "They are half-orcs of the rabbit family, and they are also a pair of twins. The taller one is the elder sister, named Ellie, and the shorter one is called Effie."
Hearing him mentioning the rabbit tribe half-orcs, You Xia noticed that the eyes of the two girls were gray, and they were both wearing turbans, and the shapes of their drooping ears could be vaguely seen.
"Didn't the city lord send the city guards to destroy the slave trading market in the black market before? After that, there were many orc boys and girls who were sold from small tribes in Maria District, and the two of them were one of them." Diss explained their situation. The origin said.
"Ah," You Xia suddenly realized, "Then why did you bring them here?"
"They wanted to find a decent job, so they came to me to introduce them." Diss said with a smile: "I know you are recruiting salespersons here. You don't choose race or gender, you only need to be literate. It just so happens that the two of them look like That’s right, they all learned simple characters before being sold as slaves, so I’ll bring them here to try.”
The tall girl named Ellie answered, "Your Excellency, please accept us, we will work hard."
You Xia's gaze shifted to the two girls. These two are indeed twins. At first glance, they look exactly the same. If it weren't for the slight difference in height, they really wouldn't be able to tell who they were.
He thought for a while and asked, "How is your eloquence?"
The younger sister Effie heard the meaning of his words, and hurriedly said: "We are very good at selling things."
Elder sister Ellie also hurriedly said: "In the past, when the family held a market, we often helped the family sell things, and every time we sold well."
You Xia nodded thoughtfully, and after thinking for a while, he said: "I can hire you for a try, but there is a one-month probationary period, and the salary will be settled daily during the probationary period, if you are not satisfied, I will fire you, is it acceptable? "
The two rabbit girls looked at each other, and spoke in a sweet and soft voice: "We want to try."
You Xia nodded: "Then, come to work at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."
The girls of the rabbit family bowed down tacitly: "Thank you."
After being introduced to this job, Diss was also very happy. He smiled happily and said to Youxia: "Thanks to you, otherwise it would not be easy for two half-orc girls to find a decent job in Rose City."
"Where, I also want to thank you for being able to recruit employees so quickly." You Xia thanked you sincerely.
It is also a good thing for him to be able to fill up the staff this morning.
The recruitment of employees means that the store's distribution work can be carried out, and the training for different types of work can be carried out as soon as possible. Then, it will not be long before a new store can be opened.
·
The next morning, there was a drizzle of rain in the sky, and the wind and tide blowing brought a sense of coolness.
You Xia got up early as usual, first prepared the ingredients for the milk tea shop and fried chicken shop, and then took Xiao Heilong to the new shop in the Chelsea neighborhood.
Perhaps because of the disrepair of the old town, the roads in the Chelsea neighborhood are somewhat potholed. When it is rained, small ponds will form on the ground. Whenever a carriage passes by quickly, there will be a splash of water.
Because there is no umbrella, You Xia can only walk close to the space under the eaves of the houses on the street, trying not to let the rain fall on him.
But even if his hair or clothes got wet, the little dragon cub lying on his shoulder would blow hot air quickly to dry him up.
His little devil dragon is quite talented in controlling fire attribute magic!
Delayed by the rainy weather, it was already past eight o'clock when You Xia arrived at the grocery store, and the three newly hired employees yesterday were already waiting under the eaves of the next-door store.
"Sorry for the long wait." You Xia quickly opened the door with the key and let everyone in.
In fact, Augst and Liumen are both there upstairs, but one of them is sleeping and the other is withdrawn, so they don't care whether there is anyone downstairs at all.
After entering the store, You Xia took the three of them to the store first, and then they went to the basement together.
Before he left last night, he wholesaled a large amount of goods from the mall and put them in the warehouse. When the three new employees entered, they saw several large boxes full of goods.
You Xia unpacked a few boxes and assigned the task to the three of them: "Today our main job is to spread the goods on the shelves outside."
"Ellie, Effie, when you distribute the goods, you must remember the placement of each product, the name of the product, its function, and the general method of use."
You Xia picked up a bottle of shampoo with a pink glass outer packaging from the box, pointed to the product label on it and said to the rabbit sisters: "What I said is on the product introduction on the bottle body, although the content is a bit much , but only by remembering these can you better recommend them to customers.”
Ellie nodded and said, "We understand."
Youxia responded, then turned to look at Muriel: "As a cashier, all you need to do is remember the price of each product, although there will be price tags on the shelves at that time, but customers are waiting There’s no time to wait for you to look at everything at the checkout, you have to keep it in your head.”
Muriel felt a little pressure, and agreed with a serious expression: "I will, sir."
"Okay, now, everyone, let's get to work!"
As soon as his words fell, the three employees immediately raced against time to get busy.
Youxia helped arrange the display area for each product on the first floor, and was called upstairs by Liyoumen not long after, and started the daily Elvish language course.
The three-hour class was fleeting, and when he came downstairs again, he found that the shelves in the section at the main entrance of the store had been filled to the brim with colorful products.
The Rabbit sisters have a good way of shopping. All the products are neatly arranged according to different colors and models, and the price tags are also put on by Muriel one by one. It is already a mature modern small supermarket!
In the early morning of the third day, the weather was fine, and You Xia neatly placed twelve flower baskets customized at a flower shop at a high price at the door of the grocery store.
Different from modern flower baskets, Youxia's customized flower baskets are actually stacked wooden flower stands with real roses and roses planted inside, so that even after the opening period, the flower stands can be placed beside the glass wall as potted plants for greening.
At this time, six flower baskets were lined up at the door, and the delicate flowers were entwined on the flower stand, forming a road surrounded by flowers, which attracted the attention of many passers-by.
At [-]:[-], You Xia opened the glass door, smiled at the three energetic faces in the store, and announced the official opening of the third new store!
In fact, he is not sure if anyone will come today, but he still has to wait. While he is waiting, he can feed the little dragon cub a breakfast, and by the way, he can also use the "History of Race Evolution in the First Era" he learned yesterday. I recited it.
