Perona finally managed to sneak into the team of tavern waiters. Although she was a little timid when she offered to help, the kind-hearted Weiwei and Xia Lulu didn't ask any more questions.
However, only half an hour later, Perona felt a little regretful: "I'm so exhausted. It's completely different from lunch!"
"Because the number of guests suddenly increased in the evening." Weiwei wiped the sweat from her forehead and fixed the tray with two bottles of wine on Karu's back, "Let's go Karu, the guest wearing the hat."
"Gua~" Karu trotted over to deliver the wine.
The guests who receive the wine are not surprised. Cats can play the piano. Is there anything strange about a duck giving two bottles of wine?
"Hey~ Karu is quite capable." Perona saw that Karu has been running around many times, and the reward is only a large drink. He is definitely the favorite type of employee of the black-hearted boss.
"I want two glasses of Ouzo here!" Xia Lulu waved to Perona near the door.
"Come right away!" Perona responded and went to the counter to get a drink from Rui Mengmeng. She did not participate in the pre-opening training and didn't even know what Uzo was.
Rui Mengmeng is an old employee, and she also shoulders the important task of warehouse keeper. She knows exactly where everything is placed in the tavern, and she also knows how to deal with any issues. If there is any disadvantage, it is that it cannot prevent a certain cat that likes to go to the food warehouse to steal food.
But there is nothing that can be done about it. Unless Zhang Daye stares at Tom intently and uses the 'master's majesty' to restrain him, no one can stop Tom from stealing food. As the chief chef of the Amber Tour Group, Tom can obviously be upright. He eats in secret, but he likes to eat in secret. Maybe the food tastes better this way?
Now Zhang Daye and the others are doing their own things and are not in front of them. Rui Mengmeng has arranged everything in the tavern in an orderly manner, and she has also dealt with the guests who drank without paying.
Seeing Perona's tired and impatient look, Rui Mengmeng said, "You don't have to force yourself if you don't want to do it. I just need to take more care of her."
"It's okay, I have to do it myself." Perona waved her hand, "Now that you have started, work hard until you get off work. Don't give up on doing things halfway."
Perona can actually tell you not to give up halfway? Rui Mengmeng looked at her in surprise, as if she was looking at an alien.
"What kind of look is that? That's what Uncle Long said. It's so annoying!" Perona stamped her feet, turned around and ran to deliver the wine.
Rui Mengmeng shouted from behind: "Be careful."
"I know...ah!" Perona didn't take a step steadily, and fell to the ground with her left foot and right foot. The tray and the wine glass in her hand were thrown out, "Ah...that's terrible!"
In critical moments, a hero will always fall from the sky, and the hero at this time is Tom.
Tom, who played the piano, received not only applause and praise, but also a lot of snacks given by the guests. Just now he was counting his harvest in the corner of the counter, thinking about which ones he liked best and which ones he could share with Artoria and other people.
When he heard Perona's exclamation, Tom subconsciously turned his head and looked over, and then immediately noticed the tray, wine glasses and wine flying in the air.
Tom was taken aback, dropped the snacks and swooped over, running around in a panic under the wine glass that was about to start falling, adjusting his position, and then accurately grabbed an empty glass with each hand, and then Lifting one foot to catch the tray.
Finally, Tom hopped a few times on one foot, waved his hands, and each of the two glasses caught a portion of the wine without wasting a drop.
"Oooo!!!"
"That's awesome Tom!"
Tom's acrobatic and difficult moves attracted a burst of cheers and whistles, and the guests felt that their day was not in vain.
Facing everyone's cheers, Tom instinctively wanted to raise his hands in greeting, almost forgetting that he was still holding something in his hands. Perona finally got up, and after a while of fussing, she and Tom caught the things again, and successfully delivered the wine to the guests.
"Thank you for your hard work." The two guests suddenly felt that the wine was hard-earned. They looked at the two surviving wine glasses on the table and didn't know whether they should drink it or not.
When it was almost closing time, Zhang Daye wandered up to the front and showed his face, intending to take a break.
"It's so lively." He had been obsessed with exercising and didn't pay attention to the movement in front of him.
Rui Mengmeng said: "There were a lot of guests in the evening. Listening to their chats, they seemed to be attracted by Tom, and some of them were curious about Weiwei."
Zhang Da also smiled and said: "I hope Ikarem and the others know that I let Weiwei be a waiter and they won't kill me."
"Long time no see, Brother Tatsuya." A familiar customer came over to talk.
Zhang Da also said: "Ah, long time no see, thank you for supporting me."
The man breathed a sigh of relief: "Ha, I didn't expect that you all suddenly became a big shot. I almost didn't dare to come over and say hello!"
Zhang Daye said with a smile: "What a big shot. I haven't become a naval general or a senior government official. I'm just a tavern owner."
Seeing that Zhang Da was as easy to talk to as before, more people gathered around and asked various questions, such as the truth about the competition between Artoria and Hawkeye, and what interesting islands they encountered. For example, which country has more beauties?
Zhang Da also asked: "After sitting here for so long, haven't Mengmeng and the others told you anything?"
"They are also very busy. The little brother named Ye Yan did talk a little bit, but it always felt too exaggerated and hard for people to believe."
"Okay." Zhang Da also answered some questions selectively. What he said when talking about the competition between Artoria and Hawkeye was completely true, but no one believed it.
That was a battle between the world's greatest swordsmen. It must have been thrilling and dangerous. How could we sit down and have a meal together while fighting? You also said that you were stabbed by Hawkeye and survived. That's a lie. You don't even have a scar on your body! After half a year of not seeing each other, the little boss has learned to brag.
Maybe this is growth.
Zhang Da also had no choice but to let them think about the unprecedented battle, and then picked out some interesting experiences during the journey and told them.
Everyone was quickly attracted by all kinds of interesting things, including the Upside Down Mountain where the sea water flows backwards, the small garden full of prehistoric creatures, and the Crown Island full of rare and exotic animals...
Many unheard of sights fascinate them, and they can't wait to go to the sea to see it in person. The charm of this sea lies in its mystery, vastness, and countless unknown things waiting for people to explore.
It's just that no matter how fascinated everyone here is, they are just fascinated. Going to sea means risking their lives, and they will not make hasty decisions just because of that little curiosity. It's enough to listen to these overseas things as anecdotes and as conversation starters.
"...Later, when the animals on the Precious Beast Island saw that Tom could cut down a big tree casually, they begged to invite Tom to be their king." Zhang Da also counted the time with his fingers. "If you want to know what happened next time, let's listen to the explanation next time. It's time. It's closed. Come back tomorrow!"
"It's still early!"
"At least finish telling the story of Precious Beast Island!"
"Did Tom stay and become king?"
"Let's go, let's go, it's already very late. Didn't you see that our little princess started to yawn?" Zhang Da also started to drive people out, feeling a little bit of happiness in the complaints of the guests.
Xia Lulu had returned to her cat form and looked at the guests speechlessly. Are these people stupid? If Tom stays and becomes king, who is lying on the counter now?
After all the guests left, Zhang Da also summoned the hard-working employees: "How do you feel? Are you still interested in continuing?"
"Fortunately, I've long been used to it. This kind of work is not tiring and I earn a lot." Rui Mengmeng counted the advantages of opening a tavern, and finally added, "And I'm not afraid of being rude now."
Of course I'm not afraid anymore. The last time Rui Mengmeng met a dirty guy was when he opened a tavern. That person didn't even touch her, but a folding stool hit her head, and her whole body was embedded in the floor. In the end, not only did she not dare They caused trouble and lost money on the floor.
Rui Mengmeng is now confident that she can embed people into the floor without the boss having to do anything, and she has also grown.
Ye Yan spread his hands and said, "Don't look at me. I used to work a lot. If you have such a short business hours and distribute all the profits to your employees, you are simply a conscientious businessman..."
Looking at Zhang Daye's eyes, Ye Yan considered his words: "It's just charity. I have no problem at all. I even want you to increase your efforts."
Xia Lulu said: "I've said it before, I've seen this kind of work before, but this is my first time doing it in human form. It's quite interesting to be able to practice magic at the same time."
These are relatively mature people and there won't be any big problems. Zhang Da is still more concerned about Weiwei: "What do Weiwei think?"
Weiwei thought about it seriously and put a smile on her face: "Although I'm a little tired, I'm very happy, and the guests are so interesting, but the smell of wine and cigarettes is a bit unpleasant."
"How about I come to help tomorrow? Let's try to blow away the smell of smoke." Wendy was too involved in practicing magic with Zhang Daye and didn't pay attention to things here. She felt a little sorry for Weiwei and Xia Lulu .
Perona was a little embarrassed. She said she didn't want to work but then changed her mind. She was a little embarrassed. It wasn't until she was sure that no one cared about it that she felt relieved and made a simple and rude suggestion: "There's nothing you can do about the smell of alcohol, but if you hate the smell of cigarettes, just stop smoking."
No one among them smokes anyway.
"Isn't it possible? How can any pub restrict guests like this?" Weiwei recalled and said, "It seems that most of the guests smoke, so everyone will be unhappy, right?"
"It's okay. As long as we are happy with the tavern we opened, it doesn't matter." Zhang Da also thinks it doesn't matter. They are not an ordinary tavern. There is no pressure to survive. It can be said that the opening is purely based on interest. You can do whatever makes you happy.
Everyone had a brief chat, and by the way, they calculated today's profit and shared it all with everyone. It wasn't much, but it was definitely a lot of pocket money.
"Oh, by the way, Perona also worked hard all night...well done." Zhang Da also praised before disbanding. The words to tease her were all on his lips, but he swallowed them back when he saw her evasive eyes.
There should be more encouragement for the growing child, especially when she takes the initiative to change herself. At this time, joking about her embarrassing things may make her character more and more awkward.
Zhang Da also suddenly felt that his mentality seemed to be getting older, and he began to reflect on why he, an eighteen or nineteen-year-old, had accumulated a lot of parenting experience inexplicably.
Perona's face turned red. According to her expectation, she would be lucky if she didn't get teased. She didn't expect that not only did she earn pocket money, she would also be praised. She trotted all the way back to her room, rolling around on the bed with a stuffed bear in her arms, trying hard not to laugh out loud.
Early the next morning, everyone got up, washed up, and went out for morning exercises. Tatsuya, who had been running wildly, had returned a long time ago, and the team was even stronger than before. It once again became a unique scenery in 59GR.
Everyone has almost gotten used to it, and recently there have even been people doing morning exercises with them.
On the way back, Uncle Long stopped suddenly when he encountered a grocery store: "You guys go ahead, I'm almost out of shampoo, go buy a bottle."
Rui Mengmeng said: "Uncle Long, we are running out of salt soon. Let's buy some by the way."
"Okay." Jackie Chan agreed.
Shark Chili said: "By the way, let's see if there are any toothbrushes suitable for my size. Bring me a few."
"No problem." Jackie Chan was very happy, it was easy to do anyway.
Ye Yan joined in the fun: "Help me see if there are any creative costumes over there. If there are any, bring them back directly."
"...Okay." Jackie Chan began to feel that something was wrong.
Weiwei raised her hand: "Uncle Long, I want a deck of playing cards, and Karu needs a water glass that can be hung around his neck to drink water."
"I want a new set of coffee mugs for hot cocoa," Perona said.
Wendy tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said, "I don't want anything, where is Xia Lulu?"
Xia Lulu said: "Well, I want a bow, but it's better to choose this one yourself."
Artoria was about to speak, and Tom was eager to give it a try, but was ruthlessly interrupted by Zhang Daye:
"Hey, that's enough for you guys. Uncle Long just stopped by to buy a bottle of shampoo, why did it become a big purchase? How can he carry so many things by himself?"
"..." Everyone was a little embarrassed. At first, they brought some small items with them, but as they talked, they went off topic unknowingly.
Jackie Chan finally realized that something was wrong here, but still said: "It's okay, it's okay. Anyway, there are bubble bags here, so it's very convenient to get things."
"Oh." Zhang Daye nodded exaggeratedly and said with a smirk, "Let's see if there are any canned cat food that looks delicious, and other delicious ones too."
Jackie Chan:…
Tom tugged at Jackie Chan's clothes and pointed at Zhang Tatsuya, indicating that the cat wanted the same thing as his master.
Zhang Da also rubbed Tom's head and sighed, this stupid cat, I just want it for you.
…
Uncle Long embarked on his shopping journey dumbfounded. What could have been solved in a few minutes now took a while.
Several people who were doing morning exercises nearby like Zhang Daye and others noticed Jackie Chan who was alone and looked at each other: Here's the opportunity!
