Chapter 39: The Bandit's Fan
Although the girl on the first floor was wearing ordinary cloth, her wealth was evident in her looks, and her young and bright face was full of pride. The temperament she exuded did not seem to match this plain cloth.
Su Luo felt that she was definitely not a girl from an ordinary family. There was no reason, just her first impression was that she smelled the scent of a pampered life on this girl.
Why would such a girl appear here? Ask her if she needs help? After years of watching TV and novels, Su Luo believes there are only two possibilities. One is that the girl has some purpose and wants to stay in the store. But her store is not even open yet, and the people in the store are more troublesome than the other and all come from the poor and lower classes. Obviously, they have nothing to do with this rich lady, so the first possibility is basically ruled out. Then there is only the second possibility left, that the girl has nothing better to do and wants to experience life at the grassroots level.
This was the conclusion Su Luo came to in an instant, so she had reason to believe that even if she failed in business, she could still open a famous detective agency to support her family.
"Hey! I'm talking to you, can you hear me?" the girl asked again.
Su Luo really wanted to jump down from the second floor like Yun Lang and say "I didn't hear it" in a proud manner, but she felt that she would break her legs and look stupid if she did that, so she gave up and went down the stairs obediently. She stood opposite the girl and took a good look at her. She became more certain of her idea - the earrings on the girl's ears were gold.
Su Luo decided to put aside his unhappy thoughts about this girl. As a businessman, one must be flexible and adaptable. This girl seemed to have a wealthy family and could potentially become a potential customer.
"We don't hire women here." Zhou Chongwen just came out of the private room. Su Luo nodded quickly. The store had enough staff for the time being, and at most it was short of a shopkeeper. This girl was not qualified for the position of shopkeeper.
The girl looked up at Zhou Chongwen and asked, "Were you the one who spent money in Taohuayuan a few days ago?" in a tone of great disbelief.
Zhou Si did not disappoint her and said, "No."
The girl said, "I think so too," and turned around to ask Su Luo, "Who is that?"
Su Luo's face changed, thinking that this girl was a relative of Zhutou, who wanted to sneak into the store to seek revenge. Just as he was about to speak to negotiate, a figure fell from the sky. Needless to say, it was no one but the bandit leader.
Yun Lang crossed his arms and looked at the girl, then stroked his chin. "What's the matter? I don't hit women. Let that pighead take revenge on his own."
"Who knows what a pighead is?" The girl walked around Yunlang and nodded with interest. "I've decided to stay. The salary doesn't matter. You can find me a place to live."
It was clear that her target was Yun Lang. Su Luo almost sprained her waist. Throughout history, playboy-type men have always been very popular with women. It was estimated that this girl heard about Yun Lang's glorious deeds by chance and came here to chase her idol.
The bandit leader was stunned for a long time, then a look of surprise gradually appeared on his face. The fleet of brand-name cars upstairs also came out of the box, huddled together, whistling and shouting some incomprehensible slogans like "Good job, boss".
Yun Lang pretended to be serious and coughed dryly. It was obvious that he was trying hard to hold back his laughter. He sighed heavily and long, holding the girl's shoulders with both hands, "Girl, I already have someone I like, so I can only let you down..."
It turns out that in front of a beautiful woman, the bandit leader can also speak in an artistic tone, not even saying " I " anymore. Su Luo felt sore in her throat that she wanted to bang her head against the wall. But before she banged her head against the wall, she was very curious about who was so unlucky to be the one the bandit leader liked.
The girl pouted her lips, turned around and used the excuse of looking at the decoration of the store to avoid Yunlang's clutches. After walking around twice, she suddenly smiled, turned around and said with regret, "That's a pity, but I won't give up."
The whistles from upstairs became louder. Yun Lang smiled complacently and secretly, turned around and raised his eyebrows at Su Luo, meaning, see, this is called charm.
Su Luo scratched his chin with cold sweat on his head, waved to Yun Lang, put his arm around his neck and said in a very low voice: "Find out the bottom of this girl."
Yun Lang nodded with an ambiguous look on his face. Su Luo grabbed him back and said, "I'm not asking you to really touch her. I'm trying to find out what she's like and what her family does."
Yun Lang looked extremely insulted, but he still approached the girl and said, "My last name is Feng, my name is Yun Lang, and my other name is Yipianyun."
Su Luo wanted to hit the wall again. Isn’t it just a gust of wind?
"My name is Qing'er." The girl smiled brightly, so full of energy that Su Luo was a little envious. "Li Qing'er." She emphasized her last name.
Zhou Si pulled Su Luo aside and whispered that Li Qing'er couldn't be allowed to stay. Su Luo nodded to show that she understood, saying that she asked Yun Lang to use the beauty trap just to attract a customer first, and she couldn't discourage the little girl's enthusiasm for chasing stars.
The two of them whispered here for a long time. Yunlang's investigation work had been completed. He called them over with a long sigh and said that Qing'er's life was really pitiful. Her parents had died, and she was raised by her brother since she was a child. Her sister-in-law was fierce and did not give her food every day. That's why she ran away, hoping to make money with her own hands. BALABALABALA... The final words were: I have promised her to stay.
Su Luo was speechless. The bandit leader who had admirers suddenly became stupid. How could this girl look pitiful? How could she grow up to be fair, tender and beautiful without food? Then she would not eat tomorrow, she would not eat for three days, she would not eat for a year!
"She can't stay." Su Luo didn't want the potential customer to become a paying employee. Chasing stars is this girl's own business, don't think about asking her to pay.
"They don't want salary." Yun Lang hit the point with one sentence.
“It costs money to live here!”
"Why would it cost to live with you?" Yun Lang had already arranged a place for him.
"…Her food expenses will be deducted from half of your salary!"
Yunlang didn't care. He always had enough money to spend anyway, so it made no difference to him whether the money was deducted or not.
Su Luo walked up to Li Qing'er and scratched his chin for a long time, but couldn't think of any good ideas to deal with her. "What can you do?"
"I don't know anything." Li Qing'er continued to visit the exhibits in the store.
Su Luo turned around and glared at Yun Lang, and found that Yun Lang had flown to the second floor again at some point to accept the admiration of the famous car fleet.
"The decoration in our store is too old-fashioned." Li Qing'er suddenly spoke up with a look of disdain, "This kind of counter is the same style as the year before last. This floor is ten years old, right? And this storefront layout can only accommodate some low-end and middle-class customers. With such a scale and taste, which political or business celebrity would be willing to come to cut the ribbon for your opening?"
Su Luo was nodding to accept the suggestion, but when he heard the last sentence, he was stunned for a long time, then jumped to Li Qing'er's side and asked, "Cutting the ribbon?"
