luck on thursday

He couldn't help but lean back in doubt, and began to unconsciously recall whether there was anything wrong with him: "Is there anything wrong, sir?"

The person who came was a young gentleman, wearing a thick coat and kicking slippers not too particular, Lin Qingyang felt cold when he saw it.

The gentleman sat down on the seat next to him, holding a hot sandwich and grilled sausage in his hand, and a glass of soda was placed on his left. It was a refill of Coke that can be bought in the convenience store here. You can refill it for three yuan. The big cup kind.

"That piece of bread has been on the shelf for a month," he said bluntly, and his eyes were also quite blunt, but a kind smile neutralized these. When he arched his eyebrows, he looked like a sunny big man Boy, "I've been wondering who's going to buy it."

Lin Qingyang felt a little unbelievable: "Is there anything wrong with this piece of bread?"

"It's terrible, only got two dollars in last month. I ate one." Straightforward.

Lin Qingyang licked the roots of his teeth, but didn't let out the taste of that thing from the depths of his mouth, but felt that there was still a lingering smell of inferior essence: "Yes. I just found it to be terrible."

"And you actually finished eating and didn't drink any water." The people around said in disbelief.

Lin Qingyang smiled subtly, although this smile made him look a little sad: "I wake up hungry in the morning, you can be me, and you can eat whatever you want."

The person next to him laughed loudly, and the cheese slice that had fallen out of half of the sandwich in his hand was crumbling. Lin Qingyang was terrified when he saw it: "You are so interesting."

"...Thank you." Lin Qingyang didn't intend to say more, he pulled out his mobile phone and stuffed it into his pocket, picked up the bag beside him,

The door of the convenience store was closed behind him, Lin Qingyang turned around occasionally, and saw the gentleman sitting in front of the window of the convenience store, biting a sandwich, squinting his eyes, smiling and waving to greet him.

Lin Qingyang was a little embarrassed, so she waved her hand.

The daylight is a bit shallow, and after the morning peak, even the number of pedestrians under the street trees has decreased by more than half.

Lin Qingyang went through all kinds of twists and turns—in fact, she took the wrong bus in the middle—and finally rented a cheap room.

The rental house in Roseburg is not cheap, but this room is facing the street, and when it is noisy, it can shatter the windows of the entire wall, so not many tenants are willing to rent such an expensive place that cannot sleep well.

As soon as the previous tenant was ousted, Lin Qingyang walked in from the outside, and then managed to get such a good room (especially the price) except that it was not soundproof.

The old landlady looked particularly unfriendly, with upside-down eyebrows and a hooked nose, wearing a colorful scarf, like a witch stirring a cauldron in a classic film and television work.She warned Lin Qingyang not to stain the bathroom tile floor, because that was her favorite pattern.

Lin Qingyang invited her out tremblingly, and when the door closed, he barely heaved a sigh of relief.

"It costs so much to rent a house..."

He turned around and sat on the bed, checked the memo on the phone seriously, and looked down: "Look for a job."

The fried skewers shop on the street seems to be a good choice.

In the winter, people usually like to eat something high in calories. Even the Rosaburg people who call themselves gentlemen have a high probability of not being able to resist the crispy taste of fried food; besides, this small fried skewer shop also works part-time as handmade sandwiches and For the job of boiling pearl milk tea, many citizens who are too lazy to deal with breakfast like to buy a sandwich to fill their stomachs here.

Perhaps because of these reasons, its business is particularly hot, and it is also particularly short of manpower.

Lin Qingyang got a position as a shop assistant with his particularly pleasing smile. The shop owner seemed to appreciate him very much. He patted him on the shoulder on the first day of work, saying that the young man should do a good job.

Another female clerk in the store also seemed to like the boy who had just grown up. She showed him the small storefront and taught him how to make things.

A chef machine, a skewer machine, a clean chopping board and a knife for handling sandwich materials, and Miss Lima patted an unremarkable machine next to her: "This can be used to boil pearls, and then you can use this measuring cup to make drinks for guests..."

Before he finished speaking, the male clerk standing next to him and hugging his shoulders said, his face was not very good-looking: "Aiya, why are you talking so much, let him follow you when you go to work tomorrow, and you will learn it soon. ?”

He turned around and murmured in a low voice, "I wasted time teaching him when I was off work..."

Miss Lima smiled at Lin Qingyang apologetically, shook her head, and slowed down her voice: "I didn't pay attention to this. It's already off-duty time, otherwise, Val, you should go back first, and I will bring the newcomer."

The male clerk sneered, and clicked his tongue: "It's obvious that I'm not very busy recently, but the manager is still recruiting... Isn't it just because of this face."

He picked up his bag with a big movement. When he threw the bag, half of its size fell on Lin Qingyang's arm. Lin Qingyang was caught off guard and took a few steps back, and was supported by Miss Lima: " Joe? Are you all right?"

Lin Qingyang shook her head, rubbed her arm casually, and smiled: "Mr. Monroe is right, it is indeed off-duty time...I'm sorry, Miss Lima."

"It's okay, just don't worry about it. Val doesn't know what's going on, but he just can't understand the newcomers, especially in the morning when there are the most guests. The newcomers not only take up space but also get in the way... It's not about you, Joe, you will be very upset Get used to it soon."

"I will." Lin Qingyang smiled at her.

It is not the first time for Lin Qingyang to work part-time, but it is indeed the first time for him to do such a fast-paced job.

Usually he will choose to do some housework in the community, such as helping some people mow the lawn or take care of their dogs, to earn daily living expenses; or go to the door of the shopping mall to distribute leaflets. At this time, he knows how to use his own advantages, such as laughing It's sweeter, the eyes are more curved, and the girls like it.

But small fast food restaurants like fried skewers are completely different from the part-time jobs he used to do.

In the morning, the store manager walked around inside, and after replenishing the raw materials, he told them to work hard, especially to bring along "potential" newcomers, so that the newcomer Mr. Lun can get started faster.

Aya responded with a smile, Val was a little reluctant, the store manager raised his voice and called him again: "Mr. Monroe?!"

"... Oh." He reluctantly agreed, and Lin Qingyang didn't know where to move her hands and feet.

The guests came in waves, so busy that there was almost no time to breathe.

When the store was first opened, there was a long queue at the entrance of the store. There were fried skewers, sandwiches, and milk tea burgers. The store is not big, but there are many things to make.

The clerk inside was busy walking around immediately. Miss Lima put the cooked bacon on the chopping board, and directed Lin Qingyang to turn on the tea-making machine without looking back: "Joe, turn on the machine over there, and then turn on the tea-making machine. Put the tea bag I told you yesterday to put in."

Lin Qingyang was not idle either, he was struggling to move the materials out, when he heard Miss Lima's order, he immediately turned his head back to press the switch of the machine, but he encountered difficulties in setting the time.

He was a little embarrassed to ask for help from Aya Lima, who was so busy that he was on his feet. He was planning to study it by himself, so he hesitated a little and was seen by Val.

"Why are you so dumb?" Val pushed Lin Qingyang away, and skillfully pressed a few buttons, and the machine buzzed, "The newcomer just came in to watch and learn more, don't just stand still in place stupidly. "

Lin Qingyang couldn't help defending herself in a low voice: "I was just moving things over there..."

"You still have the nerve to say that?" Mr. Monroe gave him a strange look, very disgusted, "It took 5 minutes to move two boxes of biscuits, what did you do here? Experience life, young master?"

That's because the corners of the box were leaking, and he searched everywhere for transparent glue to seal them, otherwise the biscuits inside might get damp!

Lin Qingyang blushed and said nothing. Miss Lima had already called him to help: "Joe, help these two ladies make a cup of coffee."

In the morning when the sun was thinning, the guests went to work and went to school. Lin Qingyang made cheese sandwiches for the last freckled boy and cut oiled paper. The busy morning finally came to an end.

The store manager allowed the clerk to use the ingredients in the store to make breakfast for himself, so Lin Qingyang didn't plan to spend money, and he didn't dare to use the skewer machine that he didn't understand yet, so he had to use a knife to peel off the bread slices and spread some A layer of butter.

"Joe didn't eat breakfast?" Aya asked with a smile.

Lin Qingyang nodded embarrassingly. Val sat on the stool beside him, glanced at him, and muttered: "This kind of hard bread can be eaten... I have eaten too much good stuff, come and taste the common people's food?"
