Qin Wan did not ask about the small stalls outside. In fact, there were not many customers in these shops. Yunshan City was still too small. Often, it was enough for someone from his own family to help. There was no need to recruit additional people. However, some people were always there. It is still possible to get in and out of the shop.
There are not many types of shops.
For example, in a carpentry shop, there is a dazzling array of wooden furniture all over the room, such as wooden cabinets, tables, and chairs, which are common, as well as wooden bowls, basins, and chopsticks, and many people buy them.
In comparison, the furniture made of stainless steel from the one next door has fewer customers.
Qin Wan knew how particular they were.
Nowadays, people are crazy about pursuing green and ecological nature. Log furniture, even if it is made of artificial wood, is more popular than stainless steel.
Qin Wan looked at the prosperous carpentry shop and walked over, asking if they were looking for apprentices.
"No, no, I'm very busy at home."
The boss waved his hand, his eyes still a little wary.
Qin Wan was quite helpless. The woodware in this house was not exquisitely made, let alone carvings. Some of the rough edges had not been polished, so there was naturally no design.
When she was a second-generation leisurely rich person, she had played with everything from ceramics to wood carving. Although she didn't have the energy to build large-scale furniture at her own expense, she would be good at making some exquisite wood carvings.
Unfortunately, the boss still refused, "I know what you are talking about is something that rich people play with, but you can't sell it here. If you want to sell wood carvings, you have to go to the first-tier cities, and you have to use natural wood or artificial wood? In our city The rich prefer living potted plants.”
Although his tone was not very good, he made the key points clear.
Qin Wan reacted.
Artificial wood carvings are dead objects. Compared with the artistic sense that can only be paid attention to in the prosperous and peaceful times, people nowadays pursue living objects more.
She remembered that her scumbag father had a wood carving given by someone else. It was a natural wood carving of a horse. Horse was his zodiac sign. This gift suited him very well. From time to time, scumbag father would take it out and plate it, and he would also take a brush. I brushed it carefully, and now I think back that the horse's body was indeed smooth and vivid - not to describe how high the level of this master sculptor was, but as Daddy continued to coil it, it was as if he was giving it a A kind of aura and a kind of vitality.
This is another point that is different from before the end of the world.
Just like jade jewelry, there is a saying that the more you wear a jade bracelet, the brighter it becomes. Doesn’t this mean the more you wear it, the brighter it becomes and the more you wear it, the more you live?
Like the jade bracelet, they all firmly believe that this kind of spiritual energy can maintain health and complement the human body.
If he could support himself, Qin Wan would not care whether this was considered feudal superstition, but unfortunately, there was no natural wood in Yunshan City.
Natural wood is difficult to grow, especially the wood that can be used for wood carvings is not fast-growing wood for several years. It is rare in places like the Imperial Capital.
She shook her head and continued looking for the next one.
There was a shop selling sweet potatoes where people came and went. The owner and his family were busy greeting customers, calling customers, and collecting money.
Qin Wan went over and asked.
The lady boss in charge of collecting money shook her head like a rattle.
When Qin Wan left, he still heard her saying, "The food shops are so pretty these days. Even my own relatives can't come here, so why do we need an outsider?"
After asking several companies in succession, it turned out that they also had the same idea.
This is different: before the end of the world, most bosses were actually reluctant to have relatives. They couldn't take it lightly, seriously, beat or scold them. Unlike strangers, you go to work and I give you money. If you can't do it, you get out. There is no need to worry about any feelings. . Now, everyone is used to staying in groups.
Because we can live longer if we stick together.
Qin Wan was not discouraged, and asked as usual with a smile on his face. There was no other way, he had to eat and live.
Suddenly, she saw a barber shop.
Something clicked in her heart - as a rich second generation, she went to the barbershop several times a month to get her hair styled. She knew how to put on makeup and do her hair, and her suggestions on aesthetics and design were praised by makeup artists. If the boss was willing to let her become a Apprentice, she will definitely grow up quickly.
Maybe she still needs to practice her skills, but she can give guidance to others.
Thinking of this, she immediately walked to the barber shop, when a young girl suddenly looked over.
Qin Wan was stunned, it was Wang Qiuer.
Wang Qiuer also recognized him and almost immediately lowered his head to avoid her sight.
She was not very beautiful, but her face was very white. At a glance, her face turned red, as if she was too embarrassed to see anyone.
Qin Wan paused in his steps, remembering the rumors he had heard before, and looking at the barber shop gave him an unspeakable feeling.
This may be what Aunt Li said was not serious.
She is not afraid of bad people because of her earth power, but she is very weak now and would rather make money slower, and she has to consider Qin Huijun's thoughts.
Qin Wan finally chose to go to the next house.
The owner of the barber shop behind him had seen Qianfan, and his eyes were so vicious. Even though Qin Wan had lost all his skin, he could still see the girl's almost perfect bones. If such a beautiful woman could be born and raised for two or three months, she would definitely be in the future. I wanted to wait for her to come in and chat with someone, but I didn’t expect her to turn around and leave.
The boss narrowed his eyes and said, "Qiu'er, I think you recognize her. Go and ask her if she's here to find a job?"
A real rich lady would not be so hungry. He believed that such a beautiful little guy from the bottom did not need to be forced.
"yes."
Wang Qiuer only agreed.
She was very obedient, took a few steps to catch up with Qin Wan, and called in a low voice, "Sister Qin."
Qin Wan didn't hear it at first, until she ran in front of Qin Wan.
"What's wrong? Sister Wang?"
"Are you looking for a job?" Wang Qiuer asked quickly.
Qin Wan nodded.
Wang Qiuer asked again, "Shops in this area rarely recruit outsiders. Our boss is interested in you, but you'd better not agree."
Qin Wan looked at her in surprise.
Wang Qiuer was a little anxious, "Our boss has a very high vision, and there are very few people he likes, but he will send people to the club. The club is different from the barber shop. You have to drink with them, and you will be taken advantage of. Yes Do you know how cheap it is?"
Her voice became lower and lower, "Although the owner of the club claims that his business is clean and honest, he is just for inspection. They will get the girl drunk and take her out..."
Qin Wan knew what she meant, but he didn't expect her to mention him. The two of them had only met each other once and hadn't even exchanged a word. She risked offending her boss by saying this.
"Sister Qiu'er, don't worry, I won't agree."
Qin Wan's voice was calm and had a convincing power. Wang Qiuer looked at her, and the anxiety in his heart subsided a little unconsciously.
Qin Wan didn't know Wang Qiu'er, but Wang Qiu'er knew her.
When she came home before, she heard her mother laugh at Aunt Qin next door, saying that Aunt Qin had lost her entire family for a loser, and that she was just a little girl making movies, but she didn't have a son.
Her mother was disdainful, but Wang Qiuer was envious.
Aunt Qin is a good person, and she doesn't want the daughter whom Aunt Qin finally rescued to fall into that situation.
She is not that good-looking. She feels that she is very lucky. If Qin Wan is similar to her, she will not speak and can eat enough just by being taken advantage of. It would be great, but the club is not a barber shop.
"Then what job are you looking for?" Wang Qiuer really felt hungry and uncomfortable.
There were times when she was about to starve to death in the underground shelter.
She didn't want to die at all.
"I used to help my dad take care of the plants at his place. I could prepare nutrient solutions and condition the soil. I thought maybe I could become a farmer or something related to it, but I have a wood affinity. The temperature is a bit low." Qin Wan smiled bitterly.
But considering the current situation, it is better to find a job in this direction. Other jobs are difficult unless introduced by relatives.
Taking care of plants is more high-end and not so easily replaced.
Wang Qiuer was surprised and admired, but she also understood. She also thought Qin Wan had a good temperament, "You have a low wood affinity and are not suitable to be a farmer, but if you have experience, you might as well take care of natural plants."
Now that she has said it, she said it more carefully, "I heard people say that natural plants are very complicated and have two sides. They say they are delicate, but they die easily. The past experience of taking care of artificial plants does not work here. It is not casual. Just pour some water and loosen the soil, and it makes sense to say that it has strong vitality. As long as the external environment is suitable, it can grow well, and it does not rely on people but relies on experience."
Qin Wan praised, "Sister Qiu'er, you know a lot."
Wang Qiu'er hummed in a low voice, looking a little sad, "Who doesn't want to become a wood spiritualist? The wood affinity must reach at least 30, and the success rate of buying low-level awakening potions is relatively high, but even with official subsidies, one It also costs two hundred yuan, not to mention the subsequent investment, and my monthly salary is only twelve yuan, and I have to give it to my mother. If I can’t keep it, she won’t buy me the awakening potion.”
Twelve yuan, thirty cents a day over there in the wasteland, nine yuan for a month without asking for leave. Qin Wan finally realized the value of money.
These two hundred yuan are equivalent to more than 100,000 yuan before the end of the world.
In the past, Qin Wan could easily take it out, but now she only has fifty cents in her pocket.
"It's getting late. Just keep walking along this road. There is a flower shop at the end. Go and ask. Maybe he will be willing to hire you."
Wang Qiuer hurriedly explained and left.
Qin Wan took a deep breath, take it slow, and support his family first. This wood spiritist has the highest status, but if you can't get in, there is no need to spend a lot of money on it.
She followed Wang Qiuer's instructions and walked forward. Sure enough, she saw a flower shop covering an area of more than 100 square meters at the end. It was very luxurious.
The name is Xinxin Huayu.
However, the door was closed, and there was a piece of paper posted next to it, explaining that there was something wrong with a batch of potted plants in the store. The boss had to go to a professional for advice and would not be back until tomorrow.
Qin Wan was a little regretful that it didn't write down what the problem was, otherwise she could have guessed.
In the past, the yard of her villa was very large and she had a lot of flowers and plants. Her mother liked it very much and took care of it herself.
He also knows some knowledge about the care of flowers and plants.
I just don’t know what varieties this flower shop has.
What a coincidence. Qin Wan was about to leave when he noticed a new store opened opposite the flower shop.
That sign is an official state-owned store.
State-run stores like this are very common underground. Because supplies are in short supply, many items are subject to purchase restrictions, and some can only be purchased with tickets. Such internal tickets are often only issued to people who have made great contributions to the shelter.
Many people joked that they were back in the past era of planned economy.
The impression that the state-owned stores had good stuff and were cheap had become deeply ingrained in his bones, so Qin Wan walked over subconsciously.
