Chapter 39

Lu Qingjia was busy all night, and worked out the script and set arrangement overnight. By the time he turned off the computer, it was already the next morning.

When he went downstairs, the employees in the store were already busy.

The cleaners work a little later, and they are helping the kitchen with the day's ingredients.

Although Lu Qingjia is located in a remote place, the treatment is very good, including food and housing, and the dormitory conditions and meals are quite good.

The dormitory has one room for four people. The large guest room on the first floor has been renovated. It has its own small hall and a separate bathroom. There are air-conditioning TVs in the rooms. The employees who are invited to eat are also very good at cooking nearby. The aunt, who is good at home cooking, cooks the staff meals. Every meal uses solid ingredients. Lu Qingjia, the boss, also eats with them. Naturally, there is no place to cut corners.

I often purchase good ingredients, and I often share a portion for extra meals.

Every month, the salary is five or six thousand after tax, and five insurances and one housing fund are also purchased, so there is less place to spend money. Most of the salary is saved after a year.

Therefore, even in remote locations, most of the employees work for a long time. Unless they get married and have children or have major life plans, few people leave the company.

This morning, the staff made steamed buns and sweet potato porridge, the chef's own pickled rouge radish, and fried porridge with bean and carob with minced meat.

The buns have thin skin and large fillings. One bite is full of rich and fragrant soup, and you can eat several in one go with porridge.

Xiaowei, who is also the person at the front desk, personnel and finance, brought a tray over. The girl is estimated to be losing weight recently. There is only half a bowl of porridge and a stack of pickles in the tray, and no buns.

She put down the tray and sat across from Lu Qingjia: "Boss, A Ping is going to resign. Didn't she go back to the city for a blind date during her vacation a while ago?"

"I've met a good friend recently. It's not appropriate to be so far away from dating. I just want to go back to the city to develop."

Lu Qingjia nodded: "Congratulations to her, if you're not busy, then wait until the Qixi Festival this week is over before leaving. By then, her salary will be counted as a month for her."

Xiaowei smiled and said, "I told her about this, and I'm not in a hurry for the time being. Even if she's gone, we definitely won't have enough people."

"The store is getting busier and busier, so let's get all the people together while she's still here?"

Lu Qingjia said, "Cheng, you are responsible. You can recruit one or two more. In the future, I may not have as much energy to look after the store."

When the farmhouse was run by his uncle, the staff were directly selected by women from the nearby villages.

However, after Lu Qingjia took over the transformation, most of the customer groups have become young people, and the staff are mainly young people who are younger and more flexible and have common topics with customers.

Such people generally go to big cities to develop, and few are willing to stay in small mountain villages.

Fortunately, Lu Qingjia is well paid, and he has built the neighborhood into an industrial chain. The scenery is picturesque and the working environment is beautiful. Tired of the hustle and bustle of the big city, there are many young people who come here to look for opportunities.

Lu Qingjia even booked a car and was responsible for picking up express delivery for people near the scenic spot every day. Many employees who make money and have nowhere to spend, at least there is no obstacle to online shopping.

Sure enough, not long after Xiaowei posted the post, she received a lot of resumes, but after learning the job location, many people backed down.

But looking at the salary, the beautiful scenery, and the leisurely pace of life, many people feel that they have dug a treasure.

Lu Qingjia went back to her room to rest after breakfast, but she didn't know that not long after he left, Xiaowei invited several young female employees in the store—

"Come on, I got a resume, I'm gone."

Several people thought there was something wonderful to share, but when they got close to the computer, they all took a deep breath—

"I'm here to apply for a farmhouse waiter? Which draft company sent the wrong resume?"

"No no no, you have promoted the draft company. Can unpackaged stars have this quality?"

"Not many of the packaged ones can beat it, right? Let's talk about the face, not the temperament."

"If this is a P picture, the technology is a bit awesome."

"Look at his reasons for entry below—homeless? What the heck?"

Xiaowei ripped open a few heads in the computer and coughed twice: "Anyway, let's inform the other party for the interview first, it's not a question of whether he is handsome or not, mainly because our store is now young and famous in the circle. , attracting high-quality employees, which is conducive to future development.”

Several people nodded repeatedly and said yes, but their hearts were actually clear.

The boss didn't mean to open a branch to expand at all, and only focused on operating the surrounding area.

Several people urged: "Then why are you standing still? Send an invitation text message quickly."

Xiaowei said solemnly: "I think it is more sincere to call and invite."

As he spoke, he dialed the number on his resume, and after a few rings, it was connected there.

There was a wet magnetism in his voice, as if he had taken a shower after exercising in the morning: "Hello?"

The phone was turned on on the speakerphone, and several female employees around heard the tone and texture and took a deep breath.

Xiaowei hurriedly said, "Is that Mr. Zhong Liyu? This is Jiajia Country Theme Hotel. We received your resume and thought—"

Lu Qingjia was lying on the bed in the room at the moment. For some reason, there was a chill, but it was fleeting.

While he wasn't very sleepy, he sorted out the quest rewards this time.

According to the game, due to the fermentation reaction caused by various reasons, the difficulty of the original dungeon at the peak of the primary level has reached the intermediate difficulty.

What's more, Zhong Liyu stepped in, which greatly misled the players' thinking and made the game more difficult.

For players to leapfrog to complete the task and perform perfectly, the clearance evaluation will also be improved accordingly.

Lu Qingjia's evaluation this time is SSS, which has never appeared several times in history. You must know that the upper limit of evaluation of a dungeon is only SS.

He is now equivalent to completing the task of the intermediate field in the primary field, and still breaks through the dungeon with the perfect performance of the SS level, and the natural reward is more generous.

Among them, there is also credit for killing the evil players. This time, Lu Qingjia's cumulative reward points are as high as 125,000.

In addition to the points he had accumulated before, it was already a very impressive number.

Lu Qingjia was quite satisfied with this figure, because he knew that after entering the intermediate stage, the price of the props was not tens of points or hundreds of points in the primary stage, but a thousand points was already considered a very efficient prop.

After entering the intermediate field, many of them seem to be inconspicuous and they will cost thousands of dollars, while the real good goods are tens of thousands of ordinary ones.

Even Lu Qingjia knew about the exchange student system.

After entering the intermediate field, the more promising players in the horror game will be exchanged to the other two major games for clearance. If the clearance is successful alive, they can also be purchased in the game's exchange mall.

When he received this news in the set clock, he said that the company's employees went to the competitor's home to communicate and learn, and he appreciated the open shopping channels of the competitor's company.

Although precious props always cost a lot of money everywhere, but some horror games are not very sold, and in reality, weapons that are not easy to handle, Lu Qingjia is interested, so he is looking forward to the exchange student.

In short, before becoming an exchange student, accumulating more points is definitely the right choice.

Then there is the ability that Lu Qingjia obtained in this level.

To be honest, because the mission is not to save the ghost, Lu Qingjia didn't have much time to contact the ghost, which greatly reduced the possibility of his ability to explode.

But fortunately, he is a rare SSS-level evaluation this time, and he can basically ignore other obstacles.

This time, there are three abilities that Lu Qingjia burst out. The first one is the shadow separation burst out from the transgender ghost.

However, it is a variant version. Players can split part of their own shadows and integrate them into the shadow of a certain target, so that they can always grasp the movements of the other party, and even with the improvement of their abilities, they can also grasp the words and deeds of the other party and even control them.

When necessary, you can control the shadow to wake up and attack, which is a good plotting ability.

The second is to get a space operation from the footless ghost. The footless ghost can control the blood to sneak into the room through a small gap and store items.

In fact, its ability is far more than that shown, but the gap in the room is too small to affect her performance.

In fact, its tricks are very powerful. It was time for other players to meet her. At that time, there was a large pool of blood on the ground, which could directly absorb people into the secondary space. Fortunately, the players were alert at that time.

The female player that Lu Qingjia was very optimistic about hooked the huge crystal lamp on the ceiling with a rope and used her strength to climb out of the opponent's range to escape.

Lu Qingjia definitely couldn't cut his wrists every time he used this ability, and a large pool of blood would come out.

However, the conditions of use are not so brutal, as long as his blood is mixed in the liquid.

It's just that the larger the volume of liquid, the more blood it needs. It is of course a dream to drop two drops of blood into the Pacific Ocean to turn the Pacific Ocean into its own territory.

The last ability is the control hair obtained from the water ghost

Lu Qingjia can change the length and density of his hair, as well as the blade sharpness, turning thin hair into sharp weapons or tool ropes.

This is a very good ability. Luckily, Lu Qingjia also brought back the water ghost's hair and some red silk. There is no need to dare. The basic ability has been exposed to you, and it is even more convenient.

He tried it, and the crisp short hair instantly grew to his ankles, black and lustrous, scattered on the white sheets, like a collection of works of art.

In the mirror, a handsome long-haired guy who looked a little unfamiliar appeared. Lu Qingjia tugged his long hair back and murmured, "So that's what I look like with my long hair?"

If it weren't for the outdated modern pajamas on his body, he would still be a gentle gentleman who came out of a classical painting with an ethereal aura.

With a thought, the long hair was retracted, and Lu Qingjia fell on the bed.

In addition to the reward points and the ability to explode, the ultimate clearance evaluation also improved Lu Qingjia's previous ability by several steps.

For example, asking him to go back and use his perspective ability to see what's in the safe is a trivial matter.

After all, although he was in a hurry, Lu Qingjia has indeed become an intermediate player in all aspects, and he is a big step closer to his goal.

After all, with his attitude and philosophy, he should be assigned a sinister player after the game, so there will always be clues about the old uncle and one day to find out the murderer.

Lu Qingjia suddenly asked, "Game, do you know who the murderer is?"

Although the game usually swears, but this time there is no gag: "I know!"

"But you can't possibly get any hints from me, and certainly not from Zhong Liyu."

Lu Qingjia chuckled: "Of course, if you do this kind of major cheating, you will fundamentally deny your existence. Of course, you will guard against Zhong Ye, who is likely to help me directly or indirectly."

"Of course this is what I want. I sincerely hope that the murderer is still alive now. As long as I think about it, he may have died in a corner, in the hands of someone more sinister, even if he died a hundred times more miserable than my uncle, I find it hard to breathe."

"Because something like an enemy doesn't die in his own hands, it's meaningless at all."

The game has seen a lot of grievances and hatreds, but Lu Qingjia's madness in his calm still makes his heart tremble.

Greedy fighting between mediocrity is only the norm, but those who are the best, in the game, will one day have a place for each other in their own private fields, even if they are still in the growth stage, the weight of each sentence is different.

Lu Qingjia settled down and went to sleep. When the hotel was built, his uncle personally supervised the whole process, and the materials were solid, so the sound insulation effect was very good.

He slept until the afternoon and woke up in the afternoon. After washing and changing his clothes, he went out to find something to eat. As soon as he got to the lobby, he saw a female employee gathered around excitedly discussing something.

Lu Qingjia walked over and said, "What's wrong?"

He usually gets along well with his employees, and he is more casual about things other than work. There is no pressure for everyone to be caught by the boss.

He said excitedly, "Xiaowei is interviewing right now. The person who came to apply this time is a super handsome guy."

"That's right, we originally thought that the photos had P pictures. Who knows that real people are more handsome than photos. The photos don't capture the charm and momentum at all. It's simply."

"Cough cough! Of course, in our eyes, you are the most handsome boss."

Lu Qingjia smiled, and he had nothing to worry about entrusting this kind of recruitment to Xiaowei.

Xiaowei used to be an executive of a large company, with strong working ability, but she worked overtime for a long time and suffered from serious illness, and her spirit was also facing collapse due to the high-intensity work and the breathless pace of life.

After being cured, he chose to slow down his pace. Once he traveled here, he fell in love with the scenery and the soothing rhythm. Lu Qingjia was recruiting people, so he volunteered.

Speaking of which, Lu Qingjia picked up a lot of bargains, and she was naturally more professional when it came to recruiting people.

Lu Qingjia also understood the girls' thoughts and said with a smile, "Don't worry about the handsome guy delaying work."

"Where can it be?" Several people laughed: "With the boss, our immunity to handsome guys is very strong."

He said again, "Would you like a cup of coffee? Wenwen just ground it."

Lu Qingjia said, "Give me a—"

Before he finished speaking, the small meeting room used as the interview room opened, and a figure appeared first.

The other party was very tall, and even lowered his head a little when he went out, but Lu Qingjia could recognize his figure and face even if he turned into ashes.

His whole person is calm, and with what he knows about that idiot, even if it can't be done once and for all, it can definitely make him calm down for a while, right

Yet it had only been twenty-four hours.

The other party also saw him at this moment, his face was noble and glamorous, and he looked at himself condescendingly by taking advantage of his height.

This guy is very aggressive in appearance, or if he doesn't speak, it's really like that.

Xiaowei came out from the inside, and when she saw Lu Qingjia, she introduced: "This is the owner of our hotel. His surname is Lu, but he is very easy-going, so don't be under pressure."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the always easy-going and gentle voice of the boss speak coldly: "Don't you have any self-respect? This kind of small broken hotel, let alone make you work, even if you stay in it, it's too shabby?"

Xiaowei and a few female employees shivered. They couldn't tell the difference for a while and were stunned. Seeing that the atmosphere took a turn for the worse, it became extremely embarrassing.

Is the boss dissatisfied with this employee

That handsome guy also looks quite arrogant, and this looks like the rhythm of being pissed off.

Sure enough, the other party raised his chin slightly, showing an arrogant smile: "Let's be so-so, don't underestimate yourself, it's not bad for you, a layman who is a half-way monk, to be able to manage to this level."

"It's just that there are still many things that are not good, but you can rest assured that there is a professional guide who is hard to find at a low price."

Lu Qingjia said lazily, "I'm sorry to say that I only hire one person to sweep the floor. I'm afraid you've come to the wrong place with such an ambition."

Saying that, he said to Xiao Wei, "If you don't accept it, let's recruit someone again."

Zhong Liyu could no longer pretend to be coercive at this moment, so he lowered his noble head in humiliation and said, "It's okay to sweep the floor and serve dishes, I'm not someone who can't endure hardship."

Seeing that the other party didn't respond, he gritted his teeth and continued: "I can do anything, I really need this job, please think about it again, boss?"

It's not that Lu Qingjia hasn't seen this guy's shameless appearance, but the program and the reaction arc are not right.

Besides, he was obviously being embarrassed by a strong man at the moment. He just couldn't let go of the air after calling himself a ban, and he was helpless, so he could only guess what was going on after thinking about it.

Lu Qingjia raised his eyebrows and said, "I was kicked out of my family?"

Zhong Liyu immediately showed a ridiculous expression: "I was kicked out? By whom?"

"Don't you know who is in charge of my family now? I, Zhong Liyu, said that the one-of-a-kind character will be kicked out of the house?"

"So you're here to find fault with me?" Lu Qingjia said lightly, "Get out."

He didn't dare to pretend anymore, someone's head lowered a little: "I was kicked out, I didn't let me bring any clothes, so I was kicked out in the middle of the night. The stepmother at home is in power, and life is not easy. ."

"Just ask the boss to take him in, just provide a shelter and a bite to eat."

Lu Qingjia let out a long sigh of relief, holding back her anger, and asked again, "Do you think I'm stupid or do you think I'm as easy to deceive as you? What did you just say yesterday? How about dignity? How about arrogance?"

"Then I can't live any longer, and eating is a problem, so what's the self-esteem?"

Lu Qingjia: "Don't pretend to me, you lack a house to live in? Who would point to the city's architectural horizon and say that they are unhappy, and want to demolish this building and repair that building to create an architectural landscape that suits their own aesthetics?"

"Just as you pretended to be, don't say that Ms. An kicked you out, she just cut you into 100,000 pieces and then threw them out. You can find shelter for each piece."

Zhong Liyu disagreed and said, "Why is this called pretending to be a force? It's a thing that the daughter of a real estate developer with debts of billions of dollars can do. How can I be called pretending to be forceful when I do it?"

"Besides, aren't you complaining that the glass of that skyscraper is too dazzling?" He whispered, "Who am I doing this for?"

Lu Qingjia didn't want to entangle with this idiot: "That's none of my business. Even if you have nowhere to stay, there are so many homeless people in the world. Can I take them in? Go away."

Zhong Liyu: "You have to force me to make more moves, right?"

Lu Qingjia: "…"

Zhong Liyu: "When I dare to do it, I'm afraid you won't take it."

Lu Qingjia: "What do you want, idiot?"

Zhong Liyu said loudly, "My salary is halved! Let's see who competes with me!"

"If you don't accept me, I'll pick up a cardboard box to build a house outside your hotel, and write on the box 'Bastard boss Lu Qingjia is irresponsible for causing people to become homeless'."

"My house has been robbed by my stepmother, the money has been frozen by my stepmother, and the property has been taken over by my stepmother. I have time, so don't force me."

These words, the amount of information exploded, and the employees couldn't eat the melon, but there was always an inexplicable feeling of excitement.

Seeing this silly and realistic enthusiasm, Lu Qingjia crossed his arms and said with a half-smile, "Do you think this set will work for me?"

"Believe it or not, I'll directly ask you for a marriage in the village. There are just a few widows who are worried that there is no man to work, and many people are willing to take you in."

Zhong Liyu took a deep breath: "Are you human?"

Lu Qingjia didn't want to entangle with this guy for the time being, but Ms. An was not easy to get rid of. Lu Qingjia was ashamed of her, and Zhong Ye, an idiot who borrowed a donkey, would definitely not be able to deal with it quietly.

However, from another angle, it is not impossible to turn trouble into an opportunity, if it is impossible to avoid it.

Lu Qingjia nodded: "It's not impossible to accept you, but how about exchanging something from you?"

Zhong Liyu's expression became serious, he gave Lu Qingjia a deep look: "You really can use anything."

He said lazily, "But I'm still curious about what you want, so let's hear it?"

The two consciously left the crowd and came to the back garden. Lu Qingjia leaned on the stone mill, looked at each other and said, "Don't be nervous, little thing."

"Originally, I wanted to rely on luck, or get more clues to analyze later, but since you have all delivered to the door."

He leaned forward, and the distance between the two drew closer. Lu Qingjia said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Have you been there once? A copy of my uncle's death."

Zhong Liyu's pupils shrank, and Lu Qingjia could see this slight change, but he was not surprised: "You can't have been there, you were all mad at that time, and with your pride, you will definitely be sure that you have become a successful person. Who is the tool person, and what is the source of the whole thing."

"Although you may not have the same authority in that dungeon as in other worlds due to the rules, at least you know the coordinates of that dungeon."

"Tell me how?" Lu Qingjia said these words almost coaxingly.

Just like back to a few years ago, when he took clues from the other party, his tone was a little coquettish and scratched at the heart of his heart.

Zhong Liyu's whole body tightened, and the uncontrollable throbbing faded, followed by the anger that swept over.

He pinched Lu Qingjia's cheeks, and said with a sullen face, "Can't wait? You have just entered the intermediate field, so don't be too conceited."

Lu Qingjia said: "Try it, anyway, the murderer can't stand there waiting for me, just find out."

"Don't worry, I have infinite patience for this matter."

The author has something to say:

Heavy rain, cardboard boxes, the abandoned green brother asked for shelter.

Malu, broken bowl, humble Ah Yin seeking nutrient solution.
