This is a bustling commercial street near the Sunshine Coast. Due to the development of tourism in Haicheng, countless merchants choose to open stores here to do business. If you can do a small business here, you will definitely make a lot of money every day. of.

After these days of getting used to, Chu Yue has already walked much better than at the beginning. Although his feet still feel uncomfortable, and there is always an indescribable awkwardness, but after his hard work, he can pretend to be a human. The fish of the same species can finally walk on land with two legs smoothly, and can barely be a human being.

He was walking along the long commercial street, which was very close to the sea. Chu Yue seemed to hear the sound of waves hitting the sea, and the slightly moist wind messed up his hair, and the thin clothes on his body were also covered The wind blows, highlighting the smooth and even lines.

Summer is almost over, and autumn is approaching. The temperature is pleasant and the climate is mild. For Chu Yue who is a mermaid but lives on land, this period is the most comfortable day.

The beautiful young man was walking slowly on the commercial street like this. Even though this was only the edge of the commercial street, it still attracted the eyes of countless passers-by, and people couldn't help but stop and look sideways.

Especially the chestnut curly short hair, the pair of bright obsidian eyes, and the indescribably delicate face, many passers-by have already secretly guessed in their hearts whether the young man in front of him is from some talent show The starlet who debuted.

Suddenly, Chu Yue stopped, moved her nose in a certain direction, and then took a deep breath, like a little mouse smelling food.

"It smells so good! It smells like fish!" Chu Yue's eyes lit up.

This smell of fish is even more delicious than the smell of fish he gnawed in the sea last night. Chu Yue, who has tasted human food, can almost be sure that this smell of fish comes from human hand.

It turns out... can human boiled fish be so delicious?This is amazing too!awesome!

At that moment, Chu Yue felt as if he had opened the door to a new world. For the sake of the taste of fish, he had a little more affection and inexplicable admiration for human beings.

While sniffing his nose hard, he couldn't help but follow the tempting smell, looking at the place where the smell of fish was continuously wafting out.

Not far away, a restaurant called "Ultimate Grilled Fish" stands quietly at the end of this commercial street. There are several gorgeous flower baskets in front of the grilled fish shop, and each flower basket has a Holding a red card, Chu Yue relied on the mermaid's powerful night vision ability to let him see the content on the card clearly.

——Business is booming.

——Financial resources are abundant.

--Reopening day.

Waiting for such congratulatory words, Chu Yue couldn't help but look at the flower basket a few more times, his eyebrows slightly raised, and he secretly let out a long "oh" in his heart, his face was full of understanding. A grilled fish shop is a newly opened shop in the commercial street recently.

It's a pity that the prime location of this commercial street has long been occupied by other shops. Therefore, this newly opened grilled fish shop is not lucky enough, so it can only be huddled on the edge of the commercial street.

Because it is located on the edge, no matter it is a working day or a rest day, the flow of people here is as rare as ever. Therefore, the facade of the grilled fish shop looks a bit deserted. Looking inside, you can sit at the table and eat grilled fish. There are very few fish guests, about zero.

It is conceivable how miserable the daily turnover of this grilled fish shop will be in the accounts...

"Why are there no humans in this grilled fish shop? The smell of grilled fish is so delicious! Some humans really don't know how to appreciate it! They are so blind!"

Chu Yue sighed for a long time, feeling sorry for this grilled fish restaurant that is clearly capable but has a bleak financial future. The business of this grilled fish restaurant is really worrying.

Suddenly, for some reason, in Chu Yue's vision, a colorful light flashed his eyes, and he subconsciously closed his eyes slightly.

When he opened his eyes again, because of his curiosity about the products of human society, his downcast eyes inadvertently fell on the luminous sign standing in front of the grilled fish shop, which is where the colorful light source is emitted.

Chu Yue subconsciously raised her eyes to look at the luminous sign, and found that there were a few lines of large characters written on it, and the color of the font was even more eye-catching and bright purple, which could be seen clearly at a glance.

Chu Yue narrowed his eyes slightly, and after quickly browsing the information on the luminous card, his eyes suddenly lit up.

—— Temporarily recruit a person who distributes leaflets in our store. The working hours are from 6:9 pm to [-]:[-] pm.

Thinking of herself who was penniless and shy, Chu Yue walked to the door of the grilled fish shop that didn't have a lot of customers, and walked in without hesitation.

The boss was busy replying to WeChat in the store, and in a blink of an eye, he saw the chestnut hair of the young man who had just entered the door. Slowly, a delicate face of Bai Zhe appeared in his peripheral vision. He stopped his movements immediately, and couldn't help but stare at Chu Yue I looked at my face a few more times.

I don't know how much time passed, Chu Yue met the boss's dull eyes, he clenched his fist and pressed it to his lips, coughed lightly, imitating how humans usually greet people he knows: "Boss, hello ah!"

"...ah? Uh...haha," the boss came back to his senses after hearing Chu Yue's voice. He uttered a series of meaningless modal particles incoherently, and after looking down for a long time, he finally put his tongue Picked it up, "Little brother, are you here to eat grilled fish? How many people do you want?"

Chu Yue shook his head subconsciously, and he explained with a smile: "Boss, I'm not here to eat grilled fish, I'm here to apply for the job of distributing leaflets, which is the luminous sign you put on the store door, boss, I saw it It says to recruit people who distribute leaflets, are you still recruiting here?"

"Recruiting! Of course we are still recruiting!" The boss's eyes lit up when he heard this.

The grilled fish shop has just opened not long ago, and this is just the early stage of planning to do more publicity, trying to attract more customers. Before, a student promised him to come over every night to do a part-time job of distributing leaflets. Who Knowing that just an hour ago, the kid suddenly called and said that he had no time tonight and would not come, so he let him go.

For a while, he was really worried that he couldn't find anyone. He didn't expect that someone else would automatically come to the door so soon, quickly solving his urgent needs.

"Really?" Chu Yue was overjoyed, her face was red, and her beautiful eyes suddenly brightened, "I want to do it! I want to do it!"

The boss was stunned for a few seconds, he looked Chu Yue up and down several times, the more he looked more and more satisfied, he smiled gradually: "OK, we will distribute leaflets tonight for three hours, 20 yuan an hour, It adds up to a total of 60 yuan, do you have any comments on the salary?"

When Chu Yue suddenly heard that there was a salary of 60 yuan, Chu Yue's heart was going crazy. For him who is now poor, that is simply a huge sum of money. How could he have any objections.

Chu Yue looked excited, and he quickly shook his head: "No, I have no objection."

……

In the central area of ​​the commercial street, the crowds were very dense. A thin young man with curly chestnut hair was carrying a large black backpack. He was holding a stack of thick leaflets and handed them to passers-by.

"Everyone, don't miss it when you pass by. The ultimate grilled fish restaurant is newly opened today, and all the big discounts for the opening are [-]% off. You all take the flyer and have a look. There are more discounts when you enter the store to eat grilled fish with the flyer. Don't accept it now. Regret, because you may never know what you lost..."

Chu Yue's promotional words rhymed quite well, but every passerby who received his flyer couldn't help but stop and look back at him more.

Some passers-by even stared at his face for a long time, and almost forgot to move on. Moreover, their companions were not in a hurry to drag the dazed person away, because they were just as dumbfounded as the former.

Or some passers-by walked forward while looking at Chu Yue, but because they didn't look at the road, they bumped into the person in front of them to react, and stood in place for a while and apologized repeatedly.

At this time, passers-by were thinking in unison: How could there be such a good-looking person! ! !

……

"Looking at the grilled fish on the leaflet, it seems to be very good. Haven't we eaten yet? Let's go to this store to have a grilled fish and try something new."

"It's been a long time since I've eaten grilled fish. After reading the leaflet, I suddenly feel like eating..."

"This grilled fish restaurant is newly opened today, with a [-]% discount when entering the store. The price is very affordable, and you can't eat a few dollars for a meal."

"The ultimate grilled fish restaurant? Newly opened, where is it located? No. XXX, Haicheng Commercial Street? It doesn't seem too far to walk from here. Why haven't I seen this grilled fish restaurant before?"

"Let's go together. Anyway, I feel that my stomach is starting to be hungry. We are walking over now, and it is estimated that it is almost time for dinner."

"Let's go……"

……

After receiving these leaflets, the passers-by chatted with their companions, and they all discussed going to this grilled fish restaurant to eat together. Therefore, within a radius of 200 meters from Chu Yue, the passers-by walking on the commercial street almost It was a red leaflet in everyone's hand—it was the promotional leaflet of the grilled fish shop.

Some passers-by walked towards the ultimate grilled fish shop at the other end of the bustling commercial street. Some people who walked fast had already reached the grilled fish shop, and they held a red leaflet in their hands. The bright red color contrasts with the flower baskets at the door, adding a lot of festiveness to this newly opened grilled fish restaurant.

The boss, who was so bored playing Doudizhu at the cash register to pass the time, suddenly saw a sudden influx of customers from the grilled fish shop, and was moved to tears.

The deserted grilled fish restaurant suddenly became a little more lively because of the influx of customers. The boss quickly quit the game, turned off the phone screen, and started to call the waiter in the store, ready to start working.

At this time, an elegant-looking girl suddenly raised the red flyer in her hand at the boss, and she frowned, "Boss, come to eat grilled fish with the flyer today, is there a discount?"

The boss stared at the leaflet without blinking. After a while, he seemed to realize something. The corners of his mouth slightly turned up, and he raised his voice: "Yes, of course, customers who come in with leaflets to consume, eat roasted food." In addition to the [-]% discount on the fish, every guest sitting at the table will be given a bottle of drink for free."

The boss's voice was so loud that it spread to almost every corner of the grilled fish shop. As soon as his words fell, there was a burst of cheers in the grilled fish shop.

The cheers came from the customers in the store.

Hearing the cheers, the boss nodded in satisfaction while standing in the grilled fish shop. It suddenly occurred to him that recruiting that young man to distribute leaflets was undoubtedly the most correct decision he had made since opening the shop.
