"Is there only one customer?" The proprietress tilted her head slightly and looked behind them through the small holes behind the pupils of the mask.

"Yes..." Qin Rang replied hurriedly. He was still a little frightened and had not recovered.

It was just a brief inquiry, but Qi Qiu felt something different. He quickly adapted to the strange mask of the landlady and politely asked the other party: "Hello, are there many tourists originally scheduled to come?"

The landlady smiled and said: "Yes, usually a tourist bus brings passengers here. Individual travelers like you are rare."

Tourist bus? Qi Jiu and Qin Rang looked at each other at the same time.

Does this have anything to do with the "accident" bus parked on the wilderness road?

However, since there is a tour bus, it means that the timeline of this instance is modern, and it is just an antique-style construction of tourist attractions.

As she spoke, the landlady looked at the time again: "That's right, it's not the scheduled arrival time of the bus yet. It's because I'm too anxious."

"It's not yet dinner time, and it happens to be not the opening date of the outdoor hot spring. Would you like someone to come with me to the store to rest first?" the landlady asked again.

Undecided, Qin Rang looked at Qi Qiu, who looked apologetic, and scratched his head in a dignified manner: "I'm really sorry, we didn't come here for vacation. In fact, we came here to find a job.

"

The landlady was stunned for a moment, and looked the two young men up and down through their masks: "Looking for a job? But you both look young, especially you."

The landlady's eyes fell on Qi Qiu: "Are you still in school?"

Qi Jiu nodded, with just the right amount of youthfulness on his face: "My brother and I took advantage of the holiday and wanted to find something to do to make money."

The landlady smiled: "Want to earn pocket money and chase girls?"

Qi Jiu pursed his lips in embarrassment, shook his head and said, "I just want to supplement the family income. Our mother works too hard."

The landlady was stunned for a moment, as if she was persuaded by his lie, but the next moment she smiled and shook her head: "I'm sorry, although you are very pitiful, but our hotel is not hiring people now."

"It's not just us. The economy is in a recession right now. No store on this street is hiring. Your part-time job plan may be in vain." The landlady reminded kindly.

"Thank you for telling us this, but I still want to get jobs for myself and my brother."

Next, Qi Jiu told the proprietress in a sincere tone that was irresistible that he and his "brother" Qin Rang were both born into a family that owned a hotel. However, due to the recent economic downturn, the hotel had closed down, and his mother could only do odd jobs to support the two of them.

child.

“My brother and I don’t have any other specialties, because our grandparents were traveling massage technicians. We have also been influenced by the family culture since we were young. We learned the lost professional massage techniques from our grandparents, so we want to use it for our family.

Make some money."

Qi Jiu compiled this story so smoothly that his "brother" Qin Rang next to him was dumbfounded.

His lies not only played the emotional card, but also conveyed his professional skills to the other party in a subtle way, which was simply irresistible.

Qin Rang put himself in his shoes and thought about it. If there was such an applicant in his company, he would definitely not be able to resist the temptation and send him an offer immediately.

Sure enough, the landlady was a little moved by what he said. She looked at the two young men with compassion: "With the current economic crisis, it is not easy for everyone to survive."

Although the boss lady's words were sincere, they were by no means a good sign.

Qi Chu keenly sensed the other party's firm refusal and continued: "If you are worried that we can't make money for you, I suggest you give it a try first, or set up an employment assessment for us."

Qi Jiu's seriousness and perseverance made the boss's wife laugh: "Young people are quite confident in their craftsmanship."

Qi Jiu smiled humbly, acquiescing to what the other party said.

He knew this was a sign of improvement.

"There are not many young people who are willing to work hard like this." The landlady carefully looked at the two of them again and showed her approval. "Well, I will also give young people a chance."

Then she looked at the time: "It's 6 pm now. If you can successfully earn the money of two passengers before 9 pm, I will agree to hire you."

"Let's agree in advance. My standard for hiring technicians is to give them a basic salary, but the basic salary is not high. The main thing is to draw a commission based on the order. Can you accept it?" The boss's wife is a businesswoman, and she made all the rules clear.

Qin Rang, who was watching the group performance next to him, was stunned, this is what happened?!

"Thank you, of course we can accept it." Qi Kuo realistically played the young student's expression of ecstasy when he found a part-time job opportunity while forcing himself to be calm on the outside.

[Dear traveler, congratulations on starting the free side mission: successfully joining the hotel and becoming an intern masseur]

[Task completion conditions: Successfully provide paid massage services to two passengers before 9 p.m.]

[Current progress: 0%]

A copy with a high degree of freedom will refresh side tasks according to the traveler's actions.

"Then it's settled," the landlady said, leading them into the hot spring hotel. "The tour bus hasn't come yet, and there are no tourists coming yet, but don't worry, they will definitely arrive within half an hour."

Qi Jiu confirmed again: "Do you know how many guests will check in tonight?"

If it is a tour bus, the tour group will inform the host hotel in advance of the number of people staying at the hotel.

Boss lady: "It said there were eighteen guests."

"But I'm not sure if there will be additional individual travelers staying here," the landlady said as she glanced at the soft snow in the sky, "The economy is so bad now, the weather hasn't been very good recently, and there are fewer individual travelers."

"But the cold weather is very suitable for bathing in the bath." Qi Jiu said.

Boss lady: "That's right."

There is a dry landscape courtyard in the hotel. After passing through the courtyard, you will come to the hotel check-in area. The entire hotel is built with an all-wooden structure. The facilities seem to be old and exude an old smell. However, it is very clean and has a lamp.

The bamboo floor lamp shines dimly in the corner, making it look simple and quiet.

A registration clerk who also wore a strange mask and a girl's yukata stood at the front desk in a daze.

The girl at the front desk is wearing the "small face" of the female type of noodle. The face plate and forehead are relatively wider and plumper, making her look much younger and more lively.

"You are free to move around and attract customers during this period before nine o'clock. I will come to check and accept the results then," the landlady said.

Qi Jiu smiled like a good student: "No problem, thank you."

The proprietress walked over and said a few words to the girl at the front desk, then went to the kitchen to get busy.

Qin Rang was completely relieved now. He pulled Qi Jiu aside and lowered his voice and said, "What's going on? Why do we have to go to such trouble to apply for the job."

Qi Jiu: "That's why we learned massage for a week."

Qin Rang: "Ah?"

Qi Gu: "In the context of a hot spring hotel, compared to tourists, the staff will have more rules at hand and have greater initiative, right?"

But unlike the previous factory dungeon, the rules and goals in "Canned Rose Fish" are very rigid, and the identities that travelers can choose are relatively simple.

This hot spring was marked as a flexible dungeon. Before entering, he didn't know what kind of identity he would play as, but he concluded that if the theme was a hot spring hotel, there was a high probability that he would be a tourist.

Tourists, like foreigners, are in a relatively passive position in acquiring information. All they need to do is change their initial identity and status to reduce the information gap.

"And compared with other types of work, massage services that require technical skills are less likely to be replaced." Qi Jiu added.

"That's right, I didn't think about this," he scratched his head, thought of something and frowned, "By the way, the tour bus the boss lady just mentioned, could it be the empty bus we saw on the road?

"

Qi Jiu pondered for a moment and shook his head: "I was worried about this just now, but after thinking about it, I think this possibility is unlikely."

"Eh? Why?"

Qi Jiu explained: "The number of people doesn't match."

"The number of people in the accident reported by Highway FM was 19 passengers plus a driver and a flight attendant, a total of 21 people. But just now the proprietress told us that there were 18 tourists who booked the hotel, so it was not the tourist bus." Qi Qiu deduced.

.

"Or, there is another possibility..." He seemed to have thought of something and frowned deeply.

Qin Rang suddenly became nervous: "What's wrong?"

Qi Jiu, who was lost in thought, did not answer immediately. Qin Rang said anxiously: "Ah, don't swallow it back mid-sentence. It's too scary."

Qi Jiu looked at the attraction tickets in his hand and said thoughtfully: "There are 18 passengers who have not arrived yet. Including the two of us and the body on the road, there are 21 people in total..."

Although he didn't understand the causal connection, it didn't stop Qin Rang from getting goosebumps all over.

"There is also a possibility that the 21 people in the accident represent us, and the accident mentioned on the radio will happen in the future..." Qi Jiu paused, suppressed the doubts in his heart, and looked at the girl at the front desk again, "But the top priority is

, let’s solve the onboarding problem before we talk about it.”

He walked to the front desk with the small card he had prepared earlier. He pushed up his glasses and pretended to smile shyly: "Hello, please...can I do you a favor?"

Qin Rang, who was standing aside, secretly held his forehead:...

Here we go again, this Chacha’s teammate is online again.

"Ah?" The girl at the front desk seemed to be shy easily. She was immediately at a loss and stammered, "Yes, yes, please tell me."

Qi Qiu had a gentle smile on his face, but he unceremoniously took out a small card: "If there are guests staying at the hotel later, please help us promote our massage business."

The landlady only said that the work would be accepted at that time, but she did not stipulate what channels and methods they should use. This did not prevent Qi Gu from issuing small cards to promote his craftsmanship.

"If you successfully attract customers, I will give you 20% of the proceeds, which will be considered as advertising fees," Qi Jiu set out his conditions, "Of course, the cost can be discussed."

The girl at the front desk was stunned for a moment, and Qi Jiu said warmly: "It doesn't matter if you think it's inappropriate, it's me who is troubling you."

Qin Rang:......

It's so scary. Who can refuse this guy who is always retreating in order to advance and seems harmless to humans and animals?

As expected, the girl immediately shook her head and took the small card handed over by Qi Jiu: "No, no problem, of course, but how should I introduce you to the guests?"

Qi Jiu smiled: "Tell the guests: If you have enough time, you can come and experience the hotel's massage service. Maybe you will have unexpected surprises."
