Guide to Running a Shop in Another World

Chapter 145: Four stores linked together

Views:

Ji Zhixin suppressed his suddenly violent heartbeat and slowly turned to look at Ji Feiming.

Uncle Ming was calm and didn't look at him.

Lu Yao handed the snacks to Water Drop Seal and Harold, then turned to Ji Feiming and said, "The number of appointments has increased to 50. Jiuhua is taking over in the switchboard room. I'll go upstairs to take a look. You take Zhixin around the store and come back to see me later."

When the Furry Shop was expanded for the first time, the store employee badges and the guests' VIP cards were privately upgraded once. By wearing them, guests can experience all the leisure activities in the Furry Shop. The only restriction on guests is that they cannot dive into the sea.

On the way back from buying snacks, Lu Yao was basically sure that Ji Zhixin could adapt to the job of a switchboard operator.

He went out in the hot weather of over 40 degrees Celsius. He had just arrived in an unfamiliar place and his legs and feet were not very convenient, but he was able to keep his emotions stable.

While eating in the dessert shop, he chatted about everything - desserts, taking photos, and shop management. He was even more talkative than Xiao Ji, and didn't look as depressed and frustrated as he did in the initial video.

Lu Yao had already decided to hire this person, it just depends on whether he is willing to stay in the furry shop.

Ji Feiming pushed Ji Zhixin into the deep-sea tunnel. Outside the transparent film, there were magnificent corals, lush algae, and fish swimming leisurely.

Occasionally, when a customer walked past them, they would secretly look back and take a few more glances. It was the first time they had seen someone in a wheelchair in the store.

After leaving home, Ji Zhixin didn't care about other people's eyes as much as usual. It might be because of this environment that he had no time to care. He held the wheelchair armrests tightly with both hands and asked impatiently: "Uncle Ming, what's going on with this store?"

Ji Feiming thought Ji Zhixin looked very useless. He completely forgot that he had been shocked for the first time in the nail salon and his reaction was similar.

It was difficult to talk in the tunnel, so he quickened his pace and pushed Ji Zhixin to the octopus room.

Some guests lay on the floor, holding the pigs in their arms and sucking them hard; some held snacks and fed them in various ways, making the pigs meow; and some held the pigs and rode on the slide together.

Ji Zhixin stared with his eyes wide open, and a voice came out of his throat, "Under the Sea Cat Cafe?"

Ji Feiming half-lowered his eyes and said calmly: "There are puppies, parrots, rabbits, and seals next door. If you join us, you will be their colleague."

Ji Zhixin: "..."

Even though they were a group that once served gods and were more likely to accept strange things than ordinary people, this store was beyond their imagination.

Ji Zhixin said in a dry voice: "It really is a furry shop... but where is it?"

"Another world." Ji Feiming said it concisely, with an attitude of completely revealing his cards.

The shop owner did not sign a confidentiality agreement in advance, and he was a little worried that Ji Zhixin would not be able to stay in the end.

Ji Zhixin turned his head suddenly, his pupils trembling, "Another world? I thought... I didn't expect... There are three more shops outside, could they all be..."

Ji Feiming nodded: "Each store is connected to a different world, so it is not convenient to say too much for now. If you stay, sign the confidentiality agreement, and get the owner's consent, you can go to other stores. If you don't want to do this, leave here, and the owner will make you forget everything you experienced today."

She really does erase memories...

Ji Zhixin thought of the clan secrets and Uncle Ming's gossip that had been discussed in the "Ji Zhi" group. His face kept changing, and he couldn't help but whispered: "Uncle Feichen has found the child, and many people in the clan are preparing to move to Tianshu City, hoping to take advantage of the new god's succession. So what is the owner of this shop?"

Ji Feiming's face was calm: "I don't know, so I will stay here and monitor her actions."

This is Uncle Ming’s original intention of asking the clan for help. So this is what happened.

If the old gods had not yet died and Uncle Ming was still a messenger of God, this level of weirdness would probably not be known to the younger generations of the clan.

Born in the Ji family, who hasn't dreamed of encountering the supernatural in person

Now a unique opportunity is in front of him. Ji Zhixin suppressed his uncontrollable emotions and said, "Uncle Ming, I want to stay here. Whether it's a switchboard operator or a waiter, I'm willing to do it."

Ji Feiming was quite pleased: "It's a good idea. When I'm too busy, I have to kill fish, wash dishes, and serve plates. I have to do everything myself."

Ji Zhixin looked over subtly and asked cautiously, "You haven't... done everything?"

"…" After a moment of silence, Ji Feiming pushed Ji Zhixin into another deep-sea tunnel and headed for the coral room: "In front is the dog house, which has a few snow-white puppies. After you take a look, go to the fishing house to find the owner and settle your matter first."

The topic... was skipped.

Ji Zhixin made up his mind to stay, and looking around, he was filled with curiosity and excitement.

No matter how you look at it, the existence of this store is amazing.

In a pet shop in the deep sea, customers will turn into fish and seals will serve them...

After seeing the palm-sized round dog, the vast coral forest outside the transparent membrane, and the garden eels dancing in the sea, Ji Zhixin slowly exhaled a breath.

When he lost the use of his legs, his world collapsed once and never recovered.

He was trapped under the rubble and couldn't breathe.

Life is infinitely stretched, but only darkness remains.

When I came to this shop and saw the sea, the huge rock that had been weighing on my back suddenly broke apart, and my body and mind were liberated.

"Uncle Ming, how many people know about the existence of this store?" Ji Zhixin asked.

Ji Feiming recalled roughly, "A lot."

Ji Zhixin: "... How much is a lot? Have you all signed the contract?"

Ji Feiming reacted, "Are you asking about the shopping street? You're asking so many questions before you even start working. Come back after you sign the confidentiality agreement."

Ji Zhixin: "..."

Are you really monitoring me

-

Lu Yao took over Jiuhua's shift and asked her to go downstairs to rest and eat something.

When Jiuhua heard that there was snacks downstairs, she rushed out holding the water drop seal that accompanied her to work.

A new drop seal climbed onto the shore, grunting as it moved to Lu Yao's legs. It tilted its head back, its wet eyes full of innocence and love: "Woo woo."

This one came to accompany Lu Yao to work again.

All the appointments for today have been processed. Lu Yao took out the materials from the drawer and prepared to make some tickets.

Special tickets to the Furry Shop, made only by the owner and Harold.

In a few days, she will be busy opening a new store, and was afraid that she would not have time to take care of this, so she made some more and stored them.

The blob seal used its soft and powerful tail to support the floor, its two short and fat flippers clung to the table legs, and it propped up its head and looked at Lu Yao eagerly: "Woo woo."

"You want to learn?"

“Hmm!”

Lu Yao almost forgot that the drop seal was a messenger of God. Unlike ordinary people, he had some magical talent.

I learned this little magic trick of making tickets in less than five minutes, and I did it quickly and well.

The ultimate working leopard with unlimited potential.

The man and the leopard worked hard to use up the materials, and the finished tickets filled two cabinets and three drawers.

After its magic power was overdrawn, the little seal rested against the corner of the table, with its flippers resting on its chest, its tail tapping the floor lightly, and its eyes looking over with wetness.

Lu Yao felt in his bag and took out two small mooncakes and a flyer.

The mooncakes are sample packs given by Zhou Su.

She tore off the wrapping paper and handed one over, "Do you want to eat it?"

Blob seals are different from ordinary seals. They are interested in human food and can eat some of it.

When there are no customers, some greedy seals will run to the kitchen to steal food.

The little seal came over, sniffed it, stretched out its tongue to lick it, its big watery eyes suddenly lit up, it stretched out its flippers to take the mooncake, rolled to the corner, and nibbled it in small bites.

Lu Yao ate the remaining one. The crust was soft and glutinous, and the filling was sweet but not greasy. The combination of the two had a rich and layered taste. It was an old-fashioned mooncake that was made with great care.

She picked up the flyer on the table, scanned the code, and sent a friend request.

At this time, Ji Feiming came up carrying Ji Zhixin on his back.

When Ji Zhixin saw the sea, his emotions, which had just calmed down, became uneasy again.

I thought this shop was only on the seabed, but it turns out there are facilities on the sea surface too, with chubby little seals to play with, and you can pry oysters, touch conches, and pick up sea urchins...

Isn't it like being on vacation to work here every day

When Ji Zhixin saw Lu Yao, he first apologized for concealing the fact that he had a leg injury, and then firmly expressed his desire to come to work at the furry shop.

Lu Yao took out the confidentiality agreement that he had prepared long ago. The contract was signed, and the Furry Shop added a new human clerk.

She took some time to hand over the work, and then took out the little leopard who was still hiding in the corner eating mooncakes: "This guy can make tickets, and you will work with him from now on."

There was still mooncake crumbs on the little leopard's mouth, and his round head and round face were full of innocence.

Ji Zhixin couldn't help but reach out and touch it. The feeling was so soft and sticky that it was indescribable. He couldn't stop after touching it once. "I was given a small seal when I joined the company. This is a benefit I didn't expect."

The little leopard squinted his eyes and made a comfortable purring sound. He must have learned it from the little pig in the store.

The ghost phone system is very mature, and Lu Yao also equipped it with a computer for easy operation.

Ji Zhixin joined the company smoothly and adapted well.

But his office was in the fishing house, and Ji Feiming had to carry him up there every day when he went to work, and pick him up again when he got off work.

Lu Yao observed for two days and discussed with the system about installing an elevator.

The system represents a huge amount of work, and it is completely different from the octopus hot air balloon.

It can be installed, but it's expensive.

Lu Yao thought about it and settled for the next best thing, which was to add an extra-long slide next to the stairs, all the way from the fishing house to the main store of the furry shop.

The slide is long enough, with a gentle slope and many ups and downs, but the material used is the same transparent film as the underwater tunnel.

Sliding down from the top is as exciting as walking on the glass plank road on the top of the mountain.

Before Ji Zhixin got off work to experience it, the little seal and a group of guests had already started having fun.

The experience of the transparent slide and the octopus slide are completely different. There were little seals and guests queuing up to play all afternoon.

Lu Yao turned back to discuss with Lei Lei and took a drop of God's Tear to make a bracelet, blessing it with the Deep Sea Goddess's blessing.

She handed the bracelet to Ji Zhixin: "Because it is an agent, this bracelet will only be blessed in this sea area."

The golden string bracelet is strung with a little finger-sized white pearl. The style is simple but very attractive.

Ji Zhixin was puzzled: "Give it to me?"

"Yes, wear it together with the work badge." Lu Yao said.

After Ji Zhixin put it on, the golden string began to deform and wrapped around the silver badge little by little. The two bracelets gradually merged into one, and a round and bright pearl appeared next to the small silver badge.

Lu Yao: "Stand up and take two steps."

Ji Zhixin: “?”

Ji Feiming was anxious and pulled Ji Zhixin up.

Ji Zhi was a little panicked, and he leaned back to hide, but his uncle was very strong, so he was pulled up and walked a few steps.

He paused, looked down at his legs that could suddenly stand normally, took two steps forward, and turned his head in disbelief: "I...you..."

Lu Yao: "Don't get too excited, it's just magic during working hours. Once you leave this sea, the magic will be gone."

Ji Zhixin was in mixed emotions. After the ecstasy, he fell again and returned to his original state, but there was a hint of relief in the depression.

At least he doesn't have to trouble Uncle Ming when going to and from get off work anymore. It's quite stressful for him to be carried up and down by his elders every day.

Ji Zhixin took out his mobile phone, opened the social software, and changed the nicknames of various social accounts to a unified name.

A few days later, Lu Yao created a small group for working in the shopping street. Seeing Ji Zhixin's new nickname, he couldn't help but recall his original image.

I was wrong.

This guy is actually a funny guy, right

Ji Feiming didn't leave a note for Ji Zhixin. When he saw the nickname, he even @ed the person and asked: [@Cinderella's new colleague at work?"]

[Cinderella at work: Uncle Ming, I am Zhixin.]

[Ji Feiming: ???]

He is Cinderella at work.

Because after get off work, the fairy godmother's magic will lose its effect.

Not to mention how complicated Uncle Ming’s mood was later, Ji Zhixin had just changed his name when he received a message notification from the “Ji Zhi” small group.

[Ji Zhixun: @Ji Zhixin Zhixin brother, are you really going to work at a pet store? ]
