Chapter 256 New Job
It was a new job that was not tiring and allowed her to run around in this huge treasure attic. At first, Zhou Ling was very happy. No matter which cubicle she ran to deliver tea, she always had a smile on her face.
Until... I ran to the master's room.
In the not-too-big compartment, the master was not the only one sitting silently.
"Master, how could you treat me like this? Since you can come in as a guest, why do you let me be a waiter?"
Relying on each compartment, guests can set up their own barriers.
So since entering the cubicle, Zhou Ling let go of herself, put down the heavy tray, and sobbed to herself, accusing her master of bullying the child.
"You little rascal, guests certainly have their roles, and waiters also have their importance. Don't underestimate this little waiter. He can walk freely in Zhizhenbao Pavilion. If we want to do something, it will be very easy. Don't you understand the truth?"
Long Aotian didn't buy her trick. He raised the other end of the chopsticks and was about to hit her on the head.
But then, there was a bang!
Long Aotian's chopsticks hit Sheng Yuan's chopsticks.
After blocking the attack for Zhou Ling, Sheng Yuan silently withdrew his hand and continued to pick up the food calmly.
The master and disciple were both silent now and both turned around to look at him. Unexpectedly, Sheng Yuan disguised himself very well this time. He changed into an ordinary face, but his identity and temperament also became mediocre. No wonder Zhou Ling didn't find him at the door at that time. It turned out that his presence was too low and it was really difficult to be discovered in the crowd.
"I'm teaching my disciple a lesson, why are you blocking me?"
Long Aotian was puzzled. When did his disciple catch the eye of this senior?
Wow, look at how protective he is of his child. If you don’t know, you would think that Long Aotian is the stepfather and is abusing the child!
"Children are delicate, and their skin is not as tough as adults. They can't take a beating. It's okay if you bend your knuckles and hit them, because you can control the force, but chopsticks are not the same. It hurts a lot."
Although the talk is a bit long, the logic is clearly analyzed.
Long Aotian pointed at him with chopsticks for a long while, but ended up in silence.
"Well, he's a fool. Ignore him. Anyway, you're serving as a water delivery boy in the Treasure Pavilion this time, and you have a mission. Do you see Room 508 across the street? If they order tea later, be smart and take the initiative to answer it. Find a legitimate reason to get close and listen to what they're talking about."
"Who's in there?"
Zhou Ling looked in the direction the master pointed, and saw a shadowy figure under the half-covered curtain, but it was not clear.
"The current sect leader's son and the current sect leader's close junior brother. In short, you just need to keep an eye on them. If nothing unexpected happens, they are not gathering here simply to buy treasures."
Although the words were not finished, Zhou Ling understood the meaning and nodded solemnly.
"Don't worry, Master, I promise to complete the mission!"
Staying too long in a private room with a barrier would arouse suspicion, so they didn't waste too much time on this gathering. After composing herself, Zhou Ling walked out with the empty tray.
Why do almost all mortals try their best to come to this world of immortal cultivation to do some work? There is only one answer: there are really too many things given here.
Although the currency of immortal cultivators and mortals is not interchangeable, even if the lowest-level cultivators can easily slip some of the lowest-level and most complicated spiritual herbs through their fingers and let them fall into the hands of mortals, who can then take them out to exchange for some money in the room and live a worry-free life for a few years.
The reward given by the Treasure Pavilion is of course the same, just some colorful spiritual herbs of younger age and lower grade.
But compared to what is offered in other places, the compensation here is already extremely generous.
All the people working here were in a hurry. Everyone in work clothes was walking in a hurry, looking flustered, forcing themselves to stay calm, determined to complete every service task in a hurry.
And every guest here is served comfortably by these waiters, strolling leisurely in the corridors or chatting and laughing in the cubicles.
At first, he thought it was a very interesting job, but after doing it numbly and repetitively for an hour, Zhou Ling felt a little tired.
The compartment that the master pointed out to her was in an excellent location, but of course the price of using it was also quite high.
At first, Zhou Ling thought this task was very simple, but when she tried to get in, she found out that the people working here were actually divided into different levels. Serving tea and water to the users in the high-end compartments was basically a high-end job, and it was not the turn of a little girl like her who had just arrived.
In order to complete the task assigned by her master, firstly, she had to be thick-skinned, and secondly, she had to be efficient and more diligent than before.
The assignment of tasks was arranged by the person in charge on their level. If they wanted to get the compartment they wanted, pleasing him became an unavoidable shortcut.
The only thing that made Zhou Ling feel relieved was that the person in charge did not have any bad habits, so it would not be difficult to please him.
Because in his eyes, there seems to be only work, a true workaholic.
If you want to be arranged to those more upscale areas, you can earn high commissions and get some extra benefits from the guests.
It is true that it is what many people dream of, but it also requires your sincerity.
There is no other way to be sincere than diligence.
In the opinion of the person in charge, only those who have a keen eye, are steady in their work, and are quick and nimble are qualified to be assigned to that area. Serving those distinguished guests well is the greatest honor for those who do odd jobs like them.
It’s hard to say much about Zhou Ling, but the most noteworthy thing is her nimble hands and feet.
For two hours in a row, while doing his job well, he was able to show his face in front of the person in charge from time to time so that he would remember him.
The first impression was a success, perfect.
"You, the new guy, there's a vacancy in the 50th area across the street, do you want to go over there?"
"want!"
When he showed up again, he was successfully stopped by the person in charge.
Now that the opportunity is in front of us, we must seize it, she responded loudly, decisively and firmly.
"Okay, go ahead. I'll record today's zone change for you. You won't be deducted from your reward. Just do your best."
"Yes!"
After observing for a while, he found that the person in charge didn't like people who were too long-winded, so Zhou Ling's answers were brief and clear, which suited his taste very well.
In this way, wouldn't it be more satisfying?
Indeed, as Zhou Ling had guessed, the master's satisfaction with her increased.
He even glanced at the upper level area and actually wanted to arrange Zhou Ling there.
