"age?"
"twenty two."
"graduated school?"
He heard the other person say: "I came from the same school and the same department as you, the Management Department of South China Associated University."
Jiang Xiao was taken aback for a moment, he hadn't thought of this.
If the other party was the management department of Nanlian, he would be really interested in chatting.
"Which class is it?"
"The class of 2002 is four classes older than you, one more round," Fu Ruoyan said, and then added, "But in the first semester of my junior year, I already dropped out of school."
When he mentioned this matter, there was nothing wrong with his expression, as if suspending school was commonplace.
It is very easy for Jiang Xiao to verify whether this person is from the Nanlian. If he is from the same department, he only needs to ask the teacher to find out.
"Why did you leave school?"
Jiang Xiao knew Lin Chengyu, who dropped out of Nanlian University and had a great change in his family.
"This is my personal matter," the smile on the other party's face faded, "I don't want to talk about it."
Don't say it if you don't want to.
His unprepared appearance is already unreliable enough, and he doesn't care about it.
Jiang Xiao also couldn't explain why he was still interviewing. Maybe it was because he hadn't found a suitable store manager until now, or maybe it was because he didn't have much to do in the future anyway. If what this person said was true, he still had some curiosity.
"work experience?"
Counting it, he should have been out of school for more than three years, and he doesn't know what to do outside.
"After leaving school, I have done everything," Fu Ruoyan said, "I worked odd jobs in coffee shops, sold furniture for a while, did express delivery, worked as a minivan driver, and others I can't remember. Yes, now I'm working as a resident singer in a bar."
… What a messy employment experience.
Having understood the basic background, Jiang Xiao closed the notebook, looked at him seriously, and asked, "Why do you want to come to us for an interview?"
He was really, really curious.
Fu Ruoyan seems to be the opposite of Jiang Xiao. Jiang Xiao believes in being down-to-earth, and he takes every step steadily. He has short-term goals and long-term plans for his life. Anyway, he arranges himself clearly, but Fu Ruoyan is quite Today has the taste of wine and today's drunkenness.
Fu Ruoyan sat a little closer.
Seeing his face up close, Jiang Xiao suddenly felt a little emotional again. Based on this, he should be able to survive in every industry and live well. God really has a preference, especially in the sales industry. A certain level of beauty is indeed productive.
But if there is only face, it really cannot be the reason for Jiang Xiao to hire him.
"Don't you remember me?"
Jiang Xiao heard him say.
Jiang Xiao: "?"
Have they met before
Impossible, Jiang Xiao knows that he has a bit of face control, if he has seen this face, it is impossible for him to forget it.
Seeing that he really didn't seem to remember at all, Fu Ruoyan reminded him, "You saved me on that rainy night."
Oh, it turns out that he is that unlucky "little girl".
"It's fate." Jiang Xiao didn't show any enthusiasm after hearing this sentence. He crossed his hands in front of him and began to make a decision, "But I think you may not be suitable for our position."
But Fu Ruoyan didn't get up and leave. He pointed to the cup of coffee in front of Jiang Xiao, and replied with a very serious sentence: "Don't you want coffee? I brought it for you."
Jiang Xiao glanced at the cup of coffee subconsciously, and said, "Thank you, but I don't like coffee, it's too bitter."
"This cup is sweet, with sugar and milk, and a layer of whipped cream on top, not bitter," Fu Ruoyan said, "You should also know this cafe, it's downstairs."
Jiang Xiao carefully looked at the label above. This coffee shop is on the first floor of the shopping mall. Although it is also along the street, the location is not good. There is also a chain coffee shop of a big brand on the same floor, but the strange thing is that the chain coffee shop The brand business is far inferior to this little-known company.
Jiang Xiao often passed by in the past two months to see the storefront and run renovations. The store is often overcrowded, and there are many people queuing up during peak hours. It is a particularly good business in the entire shopping mall.
… so
Did you give him this to wish him good business
Jiang Xiao was a little confused.
"When this store first opened three years ago, the business was mediocre. I worked there for half a year, from waiter to deputy store manager, and the business improved," Fu Ruoyan said, "Their coffee is not bad. Yes, with a good start, after I left, the business has been going well, and the relationship with the current boss has been very good."
He pointed to the cup of coffee, and continued: "You probably haven't been in that coffee shop, this is one of the best-selling series in the store, and the name of that series is Ruoyan."
He didn't say anything more, and left a phone number for Jiang Xiao.
"If you are interested, you can contact me," he said, "Jiang Xiao, I believe you will come to me."
To be honest, Jiang Xiao was a little shaken because of what he said before he left.
He took a sip of that coffee, it was really not bitter, and it tasted pretty good, Jiang Xiao can only accept this kind of beverage coffee with sugar and milk when drinking coffee.
And after Fu Ruoyan left, he really went to that cafe to verify.
There are still many people in the cafe, almost full.
The name of the top series is actually "Ruoyan", and a few small red letters are added at the back to write the shop signboard, which is especially recommended.
Jiang Xiao wondered if it was a coincidence, but he saw Fu Ruoyan on the photo wall in the corner of the store. He was wearing a coffee shop uniform that was different from others, very eye-catching and good-looking.
If it is a coincidence that the name of the shop assistant is used as a signboard, then this coincidence is too much.
Jiang Xiao really went to the counter to ask the clerk, and the clerk told him that it was exactly what Fu Ruoyan said.
"After he left, many of our old customers often mentioned him and wanted to ask where he was," said the clerk. "He was very good. At that time, the business was even better than it is now. The membership card sold very well, and the takeaway was delivered." Don't come."
Apart from the coffee shop, Jiang Xiao also went to the professor when he went back to school, and asked if there was such a student in Nanlian before. As soon as he mentioned the name, the professor remembered it.
"Yes, he still has good grades, just like you. He started investing when he first entered college. At that time, many girls liked him. When he was in class, he was obviously not a student in our class, so he sat in the back. One row," the professor thought it was very interesting when he remembered the previous events, and joked with him, "just like you and Xiao Lin."
Jiang Xiao: "... You should talk about business."
"Ah," the professor said with some regrets, "I don't know why he suspended school. His family came to organize the suspension. I went to the administrative building to persuade him. His family should be in good condition. Parents Driving a Bentley, I was very impressed and wondered why such a family would keep their children out of school.
But the specific reason is not very clear. It seems that Fu Ruoyan's own business got into trouble or something. Anyway, he didn't come back later, and I don't know where he is now. He was a good seed in the first place. "
Jiang Xiao also went to ask the seniors and sisters, including those who have graduated, and even asked those who came in the same year as Fu Ruoyan, and each question was accurate.
"When you grow up like that, who will forget?" Activities, he also relied on his own connections to take everyone to a hot spring farm in the suburbs at a super cheap price.
But he was very busy, and we didn’t socialize much with him. Later, he suddenly dropped out of school, and he didn’t say much. Some classmates contacted him but couldn’t get in touch. We didn’t have him when we graduated, and everyone was not very interested. mention him. "
In Jiang Xiao's first impression, he was unreliable, but in the evaluation of others, he was actually quite good.
His store manager has never been found, Jiang Xiao is really shaken this time.
The first time he met Fu Ruoyan, it was next to the market, and there was a bar street next to that market. If Fu Ruoyan really had this ability, combined with his face, Jiang Xiao found the bar with the best business.
Jiang Xiao sat alone in the corner, declined a lot of strike-ups, ordered a cup of fruit tea, and waited until past ten or eleven, and finally saw Fu Ruoyan come on stage.
As soon as he got on the small stage, the atmosphere was different. Many people should have come towards him, and there were cheers one after another.
Fu Ruoyan was standing there singing, he also saw Jiang Xiao, and there was a smile in his eyes for an instant, Jiang Xiao also felt that he was always looking at him.
The singing is good, but the driving force of this person is really terrifying.
Jiang Xiao took a sip of the fruit tea. To be honest, the tea was terrible. People like him could not bear it. It smelled like saccharine. Maybe the wine was better, so he ordered a few cups and tasted it. It's okay, the decoration inside the store and the location outside are not the best. For this bar, it is really lucky to have this kind of business.
Looking around, the best thing about the whole store is the small stage, with professional equipment and a band.
Fu Ruoyan sang two songs there and then came down. Another person went up, and the atmosphere was different from before.
Fu Ruoyan was indeed looking at Jiang Xiao on stage.
Jiang Xiao is also conspicuous in the whole bar. There is air conditioning and heating in the bar. His overcoat is neatly placed on the back of the chair. Inside is an off-white sweater, which makes him look obedient and very student-like.
After a while, a well-dressed woman twisted her waist to strike up a conversation, and after a few chats, the woman left quickly, not knowing what he said to the person.
Then Fu Ruoyan sat opposite Jiang Xiao.
"I said you would come to me."
Jiang Xiao was noncommittal about this, and just as he was about to speak, the phone on the table rang.
He glanced at the name, and it really was Lin Chengyu. The daily fixed reminder came again, text messages are frequent, I don't know why I called today on a whim.
Jiang Xiao was a little helpless, he picked up and said: "I'm busy, talk about business, don't worry about it."
Lin Chengyu called at this point because Jiang Xiao would usually go back to the dormitory today. After all, it has been so long, and Jiang Xiao’s itinerary is regular. He can sum it up. Lang and the others reconciled accounts or something, but not today.
Lin Chengyu heaved a sigh of relief when he answered the phone, but Jiang Xiao's background was noisy and there was music.
Is this a ktv or a bar? It's so late, business
Just as his vigilance rose, Jiang Xiao hung up the phone.
