1539. Chapter 1539 I’m starving to death

Lin Yun and Qing Xiao's running legs were so weak that no one came to chase them.

Sitting on the street corner, breathing heavily.

"Brother! I didn't expect it to be so difficult to make money!" Qing Xiao burst into tears.

"Xiao'er, don't be sad, there will always be a way. But we didn't expect it. People in this world still care about little stones." Lin Yun said these comforting words, but he felt that he had no confidence.

"Big brother and big sister! It's all my fault for coming up with this bad idea." Xiao Shitou was very embarrassed.

"Now is not the time to talk about this. We need to make some money quickly, otherwise we will starve to death."

Lin Yun said, his eyes searching everywhere on the street.

I saw a tavern. It was very lively inside, but it seemed that the waiters in the store were a little busy.

Lin Yun suddenly had an idea.

"Xiao'er! You wait here with the little stone, and I'll go there to get some food."

"Brother! How can you get food if you don't have money?"

"Look! They are short of manpower. I get food and then work to pay off their bills!"

"Brother! How can I let you suffer together? I will also help. Two people working together can earn more than one person."

"Just letting Xiaoer suffer, it shouldn't be."

"Brother! What are you talking about? We have to share the joys and sorrows together."

"Okay! Let's go together."

"Big brother, big sister! I'm going to help too!" Little Shitou jumped up.

"You! Just stay well, I won't starve you. You don't need to cause trouble for us, otherwise, when people see you, they think we are abusing you again."

Afterwards, Qing Xiao still hid the small stone in her sleeves, and went to the tavern with Lin Yun.

Entering the tavern, Lin Yun and Qing Xiao glanced at the not-so-exquisite food, swallowed hard, and mustered up the courage to walk towards the boss.

Seeking a job in a tavern is something that Lin Yun and Qing Xiao have never experienced before. It is indeed something that requires courage to accomplish.

"I can't believe that we, who were once so high and mighty, have to do this kind of work."

Lin Yun and Qing Xiao couldn't help but sigh secretly.

The person was already standing in front of the boss in a daze.

The boss also looked at them with some astonishment. If they were diners, they shouldn't come to him personally.

"Old...boss, do you need...manpower here?" Lin Yun stammered nervously.

"You want to work here?" The boss understood what Lin Yun meant.

"Okay, one tael of silver per person per month, including food and accommodation, and wages are paid per month. If you like, you can stay. If you don't want to, you can leave."

"Okay, okay!" Lin Yun and Qing Xiao were very hungry and nodded repeatedly. It doesn't matter if they can do it for a month. The important thing is to fill their stomachs now.

"Then go to work!"

The boss said something and turned around to do his own thing.

But he sighed again: "There are only two people. My business is so good, it would be better if there were three people here."

When Lin Yun heard this, he hurriedly said: "Boss! I can do the work of two people by myself, can you give me two wages?"

In the past, Lin Yun would despise even if a mountain of gold was placed in front of him. Now, he has to work hard to get an extra tael of silver a month.

But there was no other way. Here, money was strength, and he had to fight hard.

For the future, there is no other way but to fight hard.

"Yes! But you must do a good job! If you can do a good job, I will not only give you double your wages, but also make up for the food of that person, one or two taels of silver a month." The boss said Refreshingly, he also lacked manpower to force him.

Here, the workload is heavy and the wages are relatively low, so it is not easy to find someone.

Nowadays, there are fools taking the initiative, which is a beautiful thing.

If you don't do well, wouldn't it be possible to deduct all your wages?

It should be deductible. If one person does the work of two people, there are more chances of making mistakes, and the chance of deducting money will also greatly increase.

I'm so smart! The boss was proud of his calculation and decisiveness.

"Thank you, boss!" Lin Yun was very excited.

"Wait!" the boss suddenly shouted again.

Lin Yun was stunned, what, are you going to change your mind?

Qing Xiao also nervously grabbed the corner of Lin Yun's clothes, and her palms became sweaty.

"I still have wood-chopping work in the future. If you can do it, I'll give you another one, two or five dollars!" The boss gritted his teeth, money was his life.

Although he could hire a coolie with very little money and hoped to get all the money back in the future, he still felt heartbroken.

"Ah! That's great, I'll do it!" Lin Yun was overjoyed.

"Okay! It's settled! You go to work!" The boss was also very happy.

Although money is heartbreaking, it is also true that there is a shortage of manpower.

Lin Yun and Qing Xiao did not move, but looked at the boss eagerly.

The boss felt nervous. Could it be that they had discovered his conspiracy and wanted to change their minds?

"Boss, we are very hungry. Can you give us something to eat before we go to work?" Lin Yun requested.

The boss felt relieved when he heard that Lin Yun was talking about eating.

He immediately put on a serious face and shouted: "If you don't want to work, just eat for free. Don't even think about it! If you want to work, do it. If you don't want to work, get out of here right now!"

Lin Yun and Qing Xiao were immediately frightened out of their hunger. They turned around and rushed over, collecting the dishes and wiping the table, and devoted themselves to the intense work with full energy.

Although their strength is limited, the exquisiteness of their previous martial arts training is still there, so even if it is a complicated job, it is impossible for them to make mistakes.

The boss nodded with satisfaction, but was a little annoyed.

It is impossible to deduct the wages of people who do such meticulous work.

.......

"Ah! Finally, I can eat!"

Lin Yun, Qing Xiao and Xiao Shitou looked at the rough but not small amount of food under the dim light, and their eyes were shining.

"Eat!"

The two people and the monkey immediately started eating excitedly.

Soon, the whole table was eaten.

Xiao Shitou rubbed his belly and said, "I can't believe it! This is the food for pigs, and I, a divine monkey, am so excited to eat it."

After saying that, he felt a strange look.

Looking up, Lin Yun and Qing Xiao stared at him angrily, and each of them couldn't eat the half blackened steamed bread in their hands anymore.

"Brother and sister! I didn't mean it. I didn't say you, I just said myself." Xiao Shitou was a little flustered.

"Little Stone, what you said is not wrong. Why are you panicking? Indeed, this is what pigs are fed with."

Qing Xiao threw the small half of the steamed bread into the plate in frustration.

"I only ate half of it, but I can't eat anymore."

Looking at Qing Xiao's aggrieved look, Lin Yun felt very distressed.

He swallowed the small half of the steamed bread and looked helplessly outside the dilapidated house.

When he saw the kitchen with lights on but no one was there, Lin Yun's eyes suddenly lit up.
