  However, Wu Zhengyi seemed to have anticipated this move and dodged the shop owner's slap before quickly retreating out of the door. At that moment, he didn't look like an injured person at all?

  After rushing out of the door, Wu Zhengye still didn't forget to turn his head and shout loudly, "I'm doing this for your own good, what do you think it is? Let me tell you, if I hadn't eaten this meal at your place, I wouldn't have even bothered speaking!"

  "Get out!!!" A loud shout accompanied a stool flying straight out.

  Wu Zhengye's eyes widened, "Ah! My grass!" He quickly dodged and narrowly avoided the flying stool attack. Afterwards, Wu Zhengye cursed and ran away...

  "Boss, come and pack some fragrant cigarettes." In front of a small grocery store outside a common residential area in the city, Wu Zhengxie put on his usual attire and stood here.

  This time, he added a hospital gown to his outfit. The gown was naturally bought with money, as the black-hearted hospital charged for it. Wu Zhengye put on the gown, which was purchased with someone else's money.

  "What cigarette?" The owner of the small grocery store looked up at Wu Zhengxie.

  He rubbed his hands together, Wu Zhengyi's face full of joy, "Hmph, let's go... Mountain City!"

  "Which one?"

  "That kind of thing for one dollar!"

  "There isn't any now, the cheapest cigarettes in Mountain City cost two yuan." As he said this, the boss took another glance at Wu Zhengyi outside the door.

  "What? I just bought a pack a few days ago and it's already gone up in price?"

  "A few days ago?" The man sneered, "I'm afraid it's been a few years already."

  "Hmph, don't believe it then."

  "Hey, are you going to buy it or not? The price of cigarettes is fixed and can't be reduced, not even by half a cent. If you want to buy, pay up; if not, get out."

  "You..." Wu Zheng was slightly depressed for a moment, the boss had said it right, he indeed hadn't bought cigarettes to enjoy in several years. This time coming here to buy, there was indeed a reason, because he had been to many places selling cigarettes already, but none of them sold cigarettes for under 5 yuan, so he came to this small convenience store in a residential area.

  "I'm telling you, boss, is this how you do business?" Wu Zhengxia lowered his voice, "I'm a poor man, boss, be kind and sell me a pack for one yuan, okay?"

  "Hmph," the boss snorted, immediately turning his head away in disdain. "If you don't have money, why not quit smoking? People like you who are penniless but still want to eat, drink, and gamble are all trash!"

  "My grass!" As soon as he heard this, Wu Zhengye suddenly jumped up and down, "Do you know that I don't have money? I just want to haggle a bit, do you have to talk like that?"

  "Hmm!" The boss was also in a bad mood. Hearing this, he immediately stood up and said, "You......"

  "Two blocks of mountain city, two packs!" Wu Zhengye's words suddenly interrupted the boss, and at the same time, the green skin notes in Wu Zhengye's hand made the boss's eyes widen.

  He had seen plenty of green banknotes, and even more red ones, but what surprised him was that he couldn't believe the guy in front of him could produce a green banknote. The boss took the money and flipped it back and forth to check its authenticity.

  After a good while, Wu Zhengxie, with a smug expression, finally spoke up, "I say boss, have you checked enough? How about saying something?"

  The boss furrowed his brow, took another good look at Wu Zhengye, then pulled out two packs of "Shancheng" cigarettes from the cigarette cabinet and threw them on the counter. He quickly made up for 46 yuan and handed it to Wu Zhengye, saying, "Today I'll consider myself blind."

  Taking over that handful of cash, Wu Zhengyi roughly counted it, "45, 46... 47, 48!"

  48 yuan! He actually topped up 48 yuan!

  For a moment, Wu Zhengyi only felt his face flushing and his heart racing, hastily stuffing the money into his underwear, and laughing at the shop owner, "Haha, let me tell you, actually you're not just wrong about this one thing, you can't imagine it, but I'm actually a master of fortune-telling and feng shui who is hidden in the mortal world..."

  "Bang!"

  Wu Zhengye hadn't even finished saying the two words "big master" when he suddenly felt a pain in his knee, followed by a muffled grunt, "It's over!"

  He turned back suddenly, ignoring the pain in his knee, and only wanted to verify what he had knocked over.

  He couldn't help but let out a huge sigh of relief in his heart, "It's okay, it's just a pile of trash."

  He rubbed his knees, grumbled and stood up, and didn't forget to kick the trash again. After doing all this, he finally walked forward...

  The next day.

  Inside a KTV called 'Dream City' on Binjiang Road in H city.

  "Boss, I'm here for the interview." Wu Zhengxie looked quite clean today, his messy hair was cut off, maybe he even took a bath, wearing the same clothes as yesterday, but at least he didn't look like he would make people lose their appetite.

  Yesterday, he thought a lot about his own life, which in some way should have been saved by that little girl 'Xiao Min'. The content of the note she left when she walked away was still vivid in his mind.

  Big brother, Mianmian thinks you're a good person. Mianmian asked mom to use her allowance for the whole year to send big brother to the hospital. Mianmian is very happy, but this means she won't get any lollipops this year. However, Mianmian doesn't regret it. Big brother, you must be a good person from now on and make contributions to society. This way, even if Mianmian can't have lollipops, she'll still be very happy...

  It was this sentence that changed his mind, and he no longer set up a stall to cheat people by fortune-telling, but came out to find a job.

  Dream City KTV Recruitment. It was posted yesterday evening, which reads: "Recruiting service staff, male and female, with a salary of 1,000 yuan per day, paid daily, plus commission, red envelopes, year-end bonuses and dividends."

  Requirements: Male, height must be above 170cm, strong physical strength and endurance, priority to those with a stable personality, humorous and witty, dignified appearance, priority to those with relevant work experience, age: 18-35 years old. If exceptionally outstanding, salary negotiable.

  The above service staff recruitment, welcome high school and university students of both sexes to part-time job.

  Contact: Manager Liu, Phone:*

  At that time, Wu Zhengxie was moved by this advertisement. He is only 25 years old now. As for his height, although he hasn't measured it, he feels that he should be over 1.75 meters tall. His personality can't be described as steady, but he is humorous and witty. As for his appearance, in his opinion, it's not a beauty pageant, so how important is appearance?

  Anyway, for this job application, he was very confident.

  He just couldn't understand what this 'waiter' was doing and why his salary was so high.

  But now he has only one idea in mind: as long as he can make money, he is willing to do anything.

  So he waited outside the gate of Dream City at dawn today, and when Dream City opened its doors, he was the first to rush in. His goal: to apply for a job.

  The middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes, who was frowning on the chair in front of Wu Zhengxie, shook his head after sizing him up from top to bottom for a while and said, "Sorry, our cleaning staff is already fully recruited."

  "Haha, boss you guessed wrong, I'm not here to apply for this position, my purpose is to apply for that daily salary of one thousand big ocean 'waiter'." Wu Zheng said with a sly smile.

  Upon hearing this, Manager Liu looked at him with a hint of a smile, "You're here to apply for the 'waiter' position?"

  He nodded very seriously, "Exactly!"

  "Hmm, you're too thin for this position, you can't handle it." Manager Liu smiled and shook his head, "You'd better go back, and on your way out, call in Deng Pingsheng who's waiting outside."

  "Oh, so that's what you mean..." Wu Zhengxie asked in confusion, "Boss, are you saying I'm not resilient enough? To be honest, boss, don't look at my slender build, but I've been through hardships since I was young. I dare say this: there aren't many people in this world who can endure more than me!"

  Seeing Wu Zhengye's determined look, Manager Liu couldn't bear to say no, "Alright, you go back and wait for my call." After saying that, Manager Liu stood up, "Next, Deng Pingsheng!"

  "Huh? Boss, I don't have a phone!" Wu Zhengxie said with a gloomy face. "I don't have a phone, how can you find me? Or else, I'll tell you my usual address, yeah, usually at night, and during the day... haha, daytime work is busier..."

  "Hello, Manager Liu!" At this time, Deng Pingsheng pushed open the door and entered.

  "Ah, sit down." Manager Liu looked Deng Pingsheng up and down and said, "Weight 76kg, age 22, third-year student, likes sports..." At this point, Manager Liu looked Deng Pingsheng up and down again, nodded in satisfaction, "Not bad, looks handsome enough, physically fit enough, body sturdy enough... uh, why haven't you left yet?"

  Manager Liu raised his eyes and saw Wu Zheng standing at the door with a silly expression, looking like a little thief!

  "Hmm... " Wu Zheng's eyes rolled, "Heh heh, I just wanted to ask if you guys still need a janitor here. Don't worry about the salary, my demands have never been high."

  As soon as he heard this, Manager Liu suddenly opened his mouth, but he didn't say a word. Instead, he looked at Deng Pingsheng with great significance.
