Chapter 5

Sister Zhang clicked her lips a few times, and teased with a smile: "But it's true, the little girl stood next to you and let you compete, so who would be happy?"

Tang Yuan's face turned red, he stuffed his work clothes into his backpack, picked them up and ran away.

Just before going out, there was a table of male guests who had been drinking, which was served by Tang Yuan just now. One of them stopped him and said in a rough voice, "Waiter, go and get me ten more bottles." Beer, keep it cold."

Tang Yuan's occupational illness took him a second, and he said "Okay, wait a minute" and turned around to get the wine, but was stopped by another guest, who waved his hand and said no.

The guest who asked for wine was still urging, Tang Yuan didn't know who to listen to for a while.

When I was at a loss, I heard the one who stopped him say to the one who asked for wine: "You drink less first, we will change places at night."

The one who ordered the wine was already blushing and had a thick neck, and asked blankly, "Where should I go?"

"Don't talk about 'White Moonlight', you're just pretending here."

"Oh, that's right, I really forgot, I won't drink that, I'll drink it later."

The other two men at the same table also booed.The four talked to each other a few times, and even teased each other with dirty words, winking and smiling with deep meaning.

Tang Yuan, who was ignored by the side, felt hot when he heard it, and went out quietly when he saw that there was nothing wrong with him.

Although he is young and has a simple personality, he is a young man in his late twenties, so it is impossible for him not to understand the meaning of the semi-cryptic and non-cryptic words of those people just now.So while walking to the bus station, he took the phone map and searched for the name "Bai Yueguang".

On the first line of the page, an address less than two kilometers away popped up. The rating was not bad. I clicked on the picture and looked through it. It was indeed a night entertainment place, open all night.

It's not that Tang Yuan is interested in the places where the male customers will go, he just wants to know what kind of places are still available for drinking at night, and whether they can hire waiters.

Today he specifically asked the restaurant owner if he could increase his working hours and let him close from noon.The boss said embarrassingly that there is no shortage of manpower recently, so Tang Yuan didn't mention it again, otherwise it would be tantamount to stealing other people's jobs.Those who come to work here are basically the old and the young, and the whole family is waiting to make ends meet, and he only needs to support himself, which is considered good.

A bus passed by in the distance, Tang Yuan stretched his neck to look at the numbers, it was not the way home.By accident, he looked down at the map that had not been turned off, and clicked on the route.Coincidentally, the car was going in that direction.

Tang Yuan's two legs moved ahead of his brain, and when he realized it, he had already stepped into the car, simply swiped his card, and found a seat to sit down.

Just try your luck.

Unexpectedly, the place where "White Moonlight" is located is a whole street full of feasting and feasting lights. As far as the eye can see, there are more than a dozen large and small bars and nightclubs, all of which are flashing eye-catching LED headlight signs, and the street is full of cars.Tang Yuan had never been to this kind of place before. Curiosity and timidity saw each other, and he dawdled at the door for 10 minutes without daring to go in.Fortunately, it was still early for the nightlife to start, and there were not many people coming in and out, so they didn't block the road.

Tang Yuan was so nervous that his palms were sweating, he kept cheering himself up in his heart: It's already here, so it won't hurt to just go in and ask.

In the end, he gritted his teeth and opened the door of "White Moonlight".

You can see the wide hall with dark gray tiled floor, leather reception sofa, and the circles of spotlights on the high ceiling are all purple and orange. The front desk is backed by a whole glass wine cabinet, displaying the Want to know the expensive wine too.

"Welcome." The front desk lady in a wine-red uniform saw Tang Yuan coming in, her face full of well-trained professional smirks.

Tang Yuan was at a loss and was also very embarrassed, because he didn't come to consume.

"Excuse me, are you hiring waiters here?" Tang Yuan didn't dare to get too close, and asked some distance away from the front desk.

The two front desk ladies looked him up and down, exchanged glances after looking at each other, one of them came out from the counter and said to Tang Yuan, "Sit down for a while, I'll call you the manager."

After finishing speaking, he stepped on Xiaozhong and da da da.

Another lady at the front desk leaned forward and stared at Tang Yuan inquisitively, "You sit first, we don't know if we will be able to recruit people, we have to wait for the manager to come."

"Thank you." Tang Yuan nodded politely, walked to the corner of the sofa and sat on half of his buttocks.

After a while, footsteps came from the side, accompanied by inaudible whispers.The front desk lady just brought over a man in a dark suit but wearing the same burgundy bow tie. Seeing Tang Yuan standing up, she swept him from head to toe calmly, and extended her hand to introduce herself: "Hello, I am The manager here, my name is Liu."

"Hello, Manager Liu." Tang Yuan shook his hand back, "My name is Tang Yuan."

"Are you looking for a job?" Manager Liu is a middle-aged man with a long face and glasses. He is slender and straight. He is not handsome but has aura, and his voice is clear and pleasant.

"Yes, looking for a night job."

Manager Liu saw that Tang Yuan was dressed as a young student, with white sneakers, sports pants, baseball uniform, and a backpack, and asked uncertainly, "Are you an adult?"

"I'm nineteen years old." Tang Yuan replied truthfully.

"Is it a student?"

"Yes, from Pingzhou University of Technology."

Seeing Tang Yuan's timid yet sincere eyes, Manager Liu pursed his lower lip.If it wasn't made up, Tang Yuan's self-reporting to the school was really ill-considered.However, there are more fake college students doing this than real college students, and Manager Liu doesn't bother to delve into it.

"We are recruiting, you come with me."

Tang Yuan didn't expect to find a job so smoothly this time, his eyes lit up with surprise, and he started to guess how much salary he could get on the way to the office with the manager.

Manager Liu asked him to sit down, turned on the computer, and asked routinely, "Did you bring your resume?"

"No." Tang Yuan was surprised, then said.He showed up today without any preparations, and he wasn't asked for a resume when he was looking for jobs in restaurants and convenience stores.

"It's nothing, I'm just asking." Manager Liu really doesn't care. Generally, those who come to work here are not highly educated, and some are introduced by others. Eight out of ten have no resume.It's just for easy registration.

"Can you drink?"

Tang Yuan shook his head honestly, "No."

The conclusion that he "doesn't know how to drink" was reached by his sister. As long as anyone persuades him to drink, her sister will stand in front of them and say: My Xiaoyuan can't drink.Just say nothing and let him drink.

In addition, Tang Yuan himself had no occasion to drink, at most he would have dinner with his classmates and drink a bottle of canned beer. He had never tried his own limit, and over time, Tang Yuan also thought that he could not drink.

But why did you ask him if he would drink?Is it not only women who have lost their feet to drink with male guests, but also men who drink with women?

It's not that I haven't heard of it, but I didn't expect it.

Manager Liu looked at him for two seconds, and smiled brightly, "It's okay, I have practiced my drinking capacity."

"Manager Liu, you don't need to know how to drink bars to be a waiter." Tang Yuan tentatively tried, and pronounced the word "waiter" perfectly, in case the lady at the front desk misinterpreted the words and thought he was here to apply for the kind of job. special occupation.

For a place like a nightclub, Tang Yuan is a blank slate, but Manager Liu is an old fritter.He has seen a lot of boys and girls who are strong and persistent at the beginning, but later lost in the desire for money and material things. Let's put it this way, half of the young masters and princesses in the store were waiters at the beginning. human.

But it’s the same day and night turning upside down in such an environment to make a living. Others just sit and drink, chat and smile, but after one night, they can get several times the money they get for serving tea and water, and most of them will feel unwilling , It is also difficult to resist temptation at this age.

He pretended to be sympathetic, and deliberately gave a hint: "The salary of a waiter is not high, if you can drink, you can earn more."

Tang Yuan was unmoved, and he didn't climb the pole. When he mentioned money, he became more energetic, "How much is the hourly salary?"

Manager Liu said a number and business hours, "Tips are usually paid on the same day, but they are not much, and they are definitely not comparable to being a young master."

This naked/naked/naked statement was also ignored by Tang Yuan. He calculated how much money he could get a month, which was already a lot to him. It turned out that the addition of convenience stores and restaurants was more.At least the money to support the house is settled.

But in this way, excluding the time on the road, he can only sleep for four hours a day at most.

But at least life has a way out.

Tang Yuan happily filled out the information and entered the job. He thanked Manager Liu and the sisters at the front desk and said goodbye gratefully. When he went out, he met two well-dressed boys smoking at the gate, and greeted them with a smile.

Manager Liu is always amiable, not in a hurry or annoyed.He has seen countless people, and he has a lot of ways to deal with Tang Yuan, who is short of money at a young age, so he can naturally hold his breath.

Driving away from the downtown area by bus, Pingzhou at night gradually has the meaning of "the wind is uncertain, and people are quiet at first".Tang Yuan listened to English words through his earphones, and occasionally looked out of the window to see the buildings in the city receding backwards, or to appreciate the quiet river scenery with colorful neon lights.

Sang Qingshi's house is also facing the river, so I wonder if he will take Xiao Yezi to the riverside to watch the lantern show during Chinese New Year.

Just as he was thinking, the English words in the earphones were suddenly interrupted by the ringing of the phone.

It's a call from an unknown number.

Tang Yuan pressed the answer button, "Hello, who is it?"

Before the words fell, an urgent female voice came from the opposite side: "Hello, is this Sang Ye's uncle?"

Tang Yuan's heart skipped a beat, a chill instantly covered his limbs, and the hand holding the phone couldn't help shaking.

He was really afraid of this sudden call, as if there was always a bolt of news waiting for him on the other side of the line.

When his parents were seriously ill one after another, he had just entered elementary school, and his sister dropped out of school and went to the hospital in the town, so he was fostered by a relative in the village.It didn't take long to connect to two bad news.

More than ten years later, the tragedy happened again, and Tang Yuan was notified by the hospital's critically ill family members.

Probably the man who told his fortune on the day he sent his parents to the funeral was right, he was a disaster star, with an unlucky horoscope, and evil spirits in his life.

Destined to overcome all relatives.
