"Can't our accountant make the decision on his own regarding the matter to be discussed with the Rat Clan? Dingdang Ears and the others are also staying in the store, so we can just discuss it with them... Why do you have to ask me?"
Looking at the potion in front of him that was getting worse and worse in color, Zheng Qing sighed deeply and gave up the idea of saving himself.
Life is like the herbs boiled in the crucible in front of you. Every wrong move will bring a lot of trouble. For young public-funded students, choosing to open that small shop outside the school seems to be such a wrong move.
You can obviously save the income from hunting in the bank and earn interest, so why do you want to invest in a smart business? The feeling of doing business is really terrible. Once the freshness wears off, your head is filled with the feeling of trouble.
The dilemma in life often comes at this time.
When the path you choose encounters trouble, it is difficult for you to know whether it is right to continue on or to give up on this path in time. If the final result of this path is good, then your persistence will be praised; if
If the outcome behind this path is very bad, then your giving up will also be praised.
However, no one can see all the possibilities of the future - not even great fortune-tellers - so when faced with this kind of dilemma, people often can only follow their own hearts. But most people will always be brave when they should retreat.
, give up when you should be brave, hesitate when you should be decisive, kick the accelerator and rush forward when you should slow down.
This is one of the reasons why success is always a rare quality and is widely pursued.
After hearing Zheng Qing's complaint, Xiao Xiao rolled his eyes, reached out to pick up the pot lid from the test bench, covered the mouth of the crucible, and suppressed the increasingly weird-colored gases in the pot.
Then he pulled off the big mask on his face, turned to look at the young public-funded student, and said, "Are you kidding me?"
Zheng Qing blinked, not knowing why.
"Is the store yours or Fox Five's?" Dr. Xiao Da replied angrily: "I have never heard of a boss who lets his subordinates make decisions when doing business... Simplifying administration and delegating power is not your approach."
"The store belongs to everyone, not mine." Zheng Qing immediately corrected the minor flaw in Xiao's joke, then touched his nose and suddenly laughed: "Actually, our accountant flew paper cranes for everyone...
After receiving Paper Crane, I have informed Dingdang Ears, and she said that as long as the funds are in place, there is no problem in temporarily hiring some rat helpers."
"So, this matter will ultimately have to be decided by Qingqiu Mansion or the school. After all, we are not the ones who actually hire the mice. We are just a small shop that makes connections."
"Also... don't call him Fox Five from now on, call him Hank... our accountant has his own name outside Qingqiu Mansion."
Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows and did not continue to say anything.
Fatty Xin, on the other hand, remembered something and became a little angry.
"Not everyone!" The fat man stood aside, waving the glass rod for stirring the potion, and said angrily: "The elder and I didn't receive the Fox Five... I mean Hank's paper crane!"
"Even a fox knows how to watch people serve food. This is really a terrible world." Zhang Jixin also sighed.
Zheng Qing glanced at the crucible in front of the two of them worriedly, and reminded: "Can you put on a mask when you are talking? Be careful of spittle splashing into the potion... If even one of our circles is qualified,
If I can’t get out all the medicine, Professor Li will really get mad!”
During the practical operation of Potions class, two people usually work in groups to prepare a potion.
The medicine of Zheng Qing and Xiao Xiao's group has been successfully destroyed by Dr. Xiao Da's 'new operation'. Among their small group, only Fatty Xin and Zhang Jixin are left in the crucible in front of them. The quality of the medicine looks like
Still making do.
The fat man muttered something in a low voice and finally put on the mask obediently.
He still knows the importance of things like this.
"Speaking of which, don't you think there are a little too many 'non-traditional wizards' in our store?" Xiao Xiao suddenly raised his head, looked at Zheng Qing, and asked a little worriedly: "Especially because our store is opposite the Wandering Bar... According to
I know that Wandering Bar has many 'traditional wizards' with extreme ideas gathered all year round."
The so-called "traditional wizards" in Xiao Xiao's mouth actually refer to wizards of human origin like Zheng Qing and Xiao Xiao; of course, some "traditional wizards" are even more extreme and only recognize members of the human wizard aristocracy as true wizards.
.
Including vampires, werewolves, foxes, ghosts and other races that have the status of 'wizards' in the "Witch Union Code", they are often regarded as "magic beings" by such wizards, or if they are more polite, they call them "magic beings".
Unconventional wizard'.
Because it involves racial discrimination, wizard equality and many other legal provisions, no one will openly challenge the authority of the "Wizard Code" in this regard. But this does not mean that they will not express their prejudices through some obscure means.
To use an example that Zheng Qing is familiar with, the difference between 'traditional wizards' and 'non-traditional wizards' is similar to the difference between whites and blacks in the United States in the 1960s and 1970s. Legally, they are equal, yes; but in reality
, when black people travel long distances, they need a green book.
This is precisely why Xiao Xiao is worried about D&K.
Because all the members of the Exoneration Hunting Team spent most of their time in school, and they had no money to hire real wizards as store employees, Zheng Qing chose a compromise method after weighing the balance.
The person in charge of the accounts is the fox accountant sent by Qingqiu Mansion, a male fox with a big furry tail; the person in charge of reception is four small mice wearing vests and able to talk, with tinkling ears and tinkling ears.
The leader; and the three cats who guard the 'cargo' and prevent the 'caged rats' and 'corpse-eating beetles' from escaping.
One is a big forest cat, the other is a small ragdoll cat, and the third one is some kind of yellow civet that only appears occasionally, which is the mature cat that Zheng Qing calls 'Brother Huang'.
Cat three mouse four fox five.
There is no 'real' wizard.
Perhaps only in this magical world can we support this fantastic way of opening a store.
Xiao Xiao's worry is not unreasonable. Zheng Qing - or Beauty Su - has actually noticed this risk for a long time.
"Well, Hank hung up the Qingqiu Mansion sign outside the store, and also displayed my status as a Merlin Medal and a public-funded student at the front desk... No one with any sense would go looking for trouble." Zheng Qing explained vaguely.
Then he made a reassuring gesture to the doctor.
Xiao Xiao glanced at Zheng Qing strangely, with an unpredictable look on his face.
"If necessary, I'll tell my brother and hang up the Zhang family's sign too." Zhang Jixin agreed gruffly from the side, interrupting the doctor's thoughts.
