Chapter 238: Reduced to a Worker
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Meng Chuyuan did not have many requirements in terms of accommodation. She took the initiative to give the opportunity to others. “Sisters, choose first.”
The problem of choosing a house fell on Qi Yan and Liao Jiayan.
However, in terms of age, Qi Yan was a year older than Liao Jiayan, so she applied what she had learned. “Sister Qi Yan, you go first.”
Qi Yan: “…”
[I announce, Qi Yan has won this round. Hahaha.]
[Qi Yan expressed: I didn’t expect my old age to have brought me such an advantage.]
[If I had to choose, it would be very awkward for me too. I might as well compete fairly.]
[They’re all staying in the guesthouse this time. No matter how bad the conditions are, they shouldn’t be as dilapidated as the adobe houses Meng Chuyuan and the others lived in in the first episode, right?]
Seeing that everyone was being humble, Qi Yan did not stand on ceremony with them and directly chose the photo she thought was good.
Judging from the many photos, two of the rooms looked slightly better and had similar design styles. They should be from the same homestay. One of the rooms had just been chosen by Qi Yan.
When it was Liao Jiayan’s turn to choose, she did not choose the good ones or the bad ones. She chose a small single room based on her affinity to the room. In the end, Meng Chuyuan and Lu Jinsen were left to choose at the same time.
Lu Jinsen moved closer to Meng Chuyuan. He pointed at the better room and asked softly, “Why didn’t you choose this room?”
“Why aren’t you picking it?” Meng Chuyuan raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at him meaningfully.
“It’s more suitable for you.”
Anyone with a discerning eye would know that this photo was from the same homestay as Qi Yan’s. If he chose the remaining room, it would be extremely awkward.
He saw that Meng Chuyuan was not interested in this good room at all. Instead, she was looking at the rest. Lu Jinsen made a choice for her. “If you don’t choose this room, wouldn’t you have worked for nothing just now?”
“What I need is the priority to choose first, but that doesn’t mean that I will choose the good one. Do you understand?”
Lu Jinsen frowned and asked in confusion, “What kind of logic is that?”
“Naturally, it’s a principle that you don’t understand.”
[It’s over. I seem to have been tricked by their words!!]
[Although, I think there’s nothing wrong with Sister Meng. The winning party can choose everything, but there’s no rule that they have to choose the best.]
[I’m with Lu Jinsen’s idea. I think victory is hard to come by. Why should I give away good things?]
[Sister Meng’s point of view is quite special. It has refreshed my understanding of her again.]
Meng Chuyuan still did not choose that room. After looking at the remaining photos, she already had the answer she wanted.
She chose a room that was more pertinent. From the photos, the room was small and warm. Most importantly, the lighting was good.
Looking at Lu Jinsen’s puzzled expression, Meng Chuyuan gave him a suggestion. “If you want to keep the goodies to yourself, it’s not a bad choice.”
Lu Jinsen was expressionless and did not say a word. He chose the best room among the remaining rooms.
There were four people who had not been eliminated by the mysterious persons in this card gathering event, so the individual competition would continue until the next event.
Director: “The theme of this episode’s variety show is to test everyone’s capability in business operations, so later, our two teams will send a representative up to draw lots to decide everyone’s career identity. Then, we’ll go to town to train for half a day and start work tomorrow.”
The production team contacted the milk tea shop and dessert shop in town. They sent four guests as students to both shops for three days of internship.
Meng Chuyuan’s team drew the milk tea shop, while Liao Jiake’s team drew the dessert shop.
After lunch break, the two groups of guests went to work for training.
Meng Chuyuan and the others came to a brand-created milk tea shop. The physical shop was quite big and had a lot of customers.
Under the manager’s guidance, they toured the shop and learned about the daily operations of the milk tea shop, as well as the various machines and materials used to make milk tea.
The store manager assigned the three girls their respective jobs: Liao Jiayan was in charge of taking orders, Meng Chuyuan was in charge of making the drinks, and Qi Yan was in charge of packing them.
After explaining their work clearly, the store manager turned his attention to Lu Jinsen. “Can you do the delivery?”
Lu Jinsen: “No problem.”
The store manager nodded and asked, “Do you know how to ride an electric scooter?”
When he was asked this, Lu Jinsen suddenly fell silent.
Lu Jinsen had never ridden an electric bike before, so he did not know if he could handle it.
Seeing Lu Jinsen’s hesitant expression, the manager felt a little awkward and regretted not asking earlier.
Just as the atmosphere was about to freeze, Meng Chuyuan took the initiative to step forward to help. “Manager, why don’t you let me deliver it? I know how to ride a small electric scooter.”
“Alright.” The manager glanced at Lu Jinsen. “Then you’ll be the one who makes the drinks.”
Just as Lu Jinsen was about to agree, Meng Chuyuan spoke again. “Manager, for the sake of your shop’s reputation, why don’t you change his position?”
“…” The store manager was dumbfounded.
[Little kid, do you have a lot of question marks???]
[Hahahaha, Sister Meng’s ridicule is fatal. Young Master can’t cook. I didn’t expect him to be stripped of his right to make milk tea.]
[How did Sister Meng expose him in such a serious manner? If it were me, I would definitely raise my head and laugh first before talking about it.]
[Help! If I hadn’t seen the comments section, I wouldn’t have realized what had happened. Hahaha!]
[Does My Brother Sen not need face. He’s recording a variety show and his underwear is about to be taken off by you guys.]
Seeing that the store manager was a little confused, Meng Chuyuan said something simple and easy to understand, “This child’s ability to make drinks is not particularly good.”
Lu Jinsen: “…”
After some consideration, the manager decided to exchange his position with Liao Jiayan’s. “Then you should go and take orders. Jia Yan will handle it.”
Lu Jinsen: “Okay.”
After they were allocated jobs, they began to familiarize themselves with their jobs in advance. Then, the manager brought them for training and told them some problems they would encounter in their daily work.
“Those who are in charge of ordering must be energetic. Don’t take down the wrong order for the customers.”
“Also, the bartender has to familiarize themself with the various containers and master the technique of making the drinks. Try not to make any mistakes, or it will affect the taste of the drink.”
“You have to look at the receipt first before packing the food to avoid any mistakes.”
Meng Chuyuan’s half day of training was relatively free. She only needed to know how to ride an electric scooter and familiarize herself with the road conditions. She just needed to make sure that she wasn’t late and didn’t send the food to the wrong person.
“We have a special delivery man for online orders. The time which we’re in charge of delivering is when some users contact us through WeChat to order directly. We have to deliver these orders ourselves.”
Because this milk tea shop was opened by the store manager and a friend, they had an additional WeChat order option.
“We don’t usually receive many of these orders. You might stay in the shop most of the time and help clean up the trash on the table.”
Meng Chuyuan: “I understand.”
