Was fired and opened a gourmet food store

Chapter 1

"Jiangcheng, I'm back!"

Leave this post with a picture of Jiangcheng Railway Station on QQ space.

A young man with a face value that is not inferior to the four beauties in the world, pulled his suitcase and left the station square and walked towards the bus station.

The young man's name is Xu Ziqi, he is 22 years old this year, and he is an outstanding graduate of a 985 university in China.

He has been the kind of child from childhood to adulthood.

But these are all in the past.

Now he is an ordinary young man who has just lost his job.

He was fired.

The reason for being fired is not poor ability, but the department leader is too dog.

Xu Ziqi used to work in a large company in Shanghai.

His department leader is a formalistic idiot who likes to engage in overtime culture.

He often posts chicken soup in the circle of friends, such as people who like to have two days off have no ambition, and the company culture is family culture.

Under his instigation, many people who agreed to 955 before entering the company were forced to 996 by him.

Faced with this situation, other people in the department chose to endure.

Xu Ziqi doesn't care about these.

I'm here to work, not to kill myself.

With this idea in mind, he finishes his work early every day and leaves work on time.

Over time, Xu Ziqi has become an outlier in the department and even the entire company.

He is the only one in the entire company who leaves work on time and has two days off.

The department leader also saw this and talked to Xu Ziqi several times, but Xu Ziqi never changed.

The leader couldn't stand it, and soon found a reason to dismiss him.

...

Sitting on a bench at the bus stop, Xu Ziqi tightened his coat.

It's November 2021, and it's a bit cold.

Taking out his mobile phone and opening a chat window on WeChat, Xu Ziqi flipped through the chat record with the note "Zhang Meng".

Seeing the red exclamation mark on the left of the bottom message and the gray small words below.

Xu Ziqi pulled a bitter smile at the corner of his mouth.

"Is the big city so good?"

"So good that I can give up a four-year relationship."

Well, Xu Ziqi was dumped by his girlfriend Zhang Meng and was blocked and deleted.

Just a week after he lost his job.

That day was Xu Ziqi's birthday.

In the rental house, he prepared a large table of dishes waiting for Zhang Meng to come back and celebrate together.

But Zhang Meng came back very late today, and Xu Ziqi didn't think much about it, thinking that she was working overtime.

After all, companies in this city like to work overtime.

When Zhang Meng pushed the door back, it was already 10 o'clock in the evening.

Xu Ziqi greeted her with full expectations.

When he saw her empty hands, he felt a little strange.

Why didn't she bring him a gift?

In the past, Zhang Meng always prepared gifts carefully for her birthday.

Forget it.

If there is no gift, then there is no gift.

Maybe she was busy and forgot.

When Xu Ziqi invited Zhang Meng to eat, Zhang Meng didn't say a word.

After a while, she slowly spoke.

"Let's break up."

Hearing Zhang Meng's words, Xu Ziqi was a little surprised.

"Isn't it just unemployment? Just find another job. There's no need to break up, right?"

Zhang Meng just replied coldly: "What if you find a job? With your salary, when can you buy a house in Shanghai?"

"We can work hard together. We are still young now and there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

"Come on, do you know how much a house costs? Even if you can afford the down payment, you will be overwhelmed by the mortgage for the rest of your life."

"If we feel stressed in the big city, we can go back to our hometown. The pace there is slow and it is a good place to live."

"After returning to our hometown, what's next?"

"Get a salary of three or four thousand a month?"

"Besides, you have read so many books, and you are willing to stay in that small place in your hometown?"

Xu Ziqi felt something was wrong. Zhang Meng today is not the same as before.

"Did you encounter something? Tell me and we can think of a solution together."

"It's nothing."

Zhang Meng didn't hide it and showed her cards directly: "A rich second-generation is pursuing me and promised to settle me down in Shanghai."

Xu Ziqi's tone became cold.

"So you came back so late because you were with him?"

"That's right!"

Zhang Meng gritted his teeth and said, "He just confessed to me and I accepted it."

"And you know, the restaurant where he confessed costs me a month's salary to eat a meal."

"Is this the reason for your breakup?"

"Yes!"

Zhang Meng's tone was firm, but when she saw Xu Ziqi, a hint of tenderness flashed in her eyes.

"Although I don't love him more than you, he can give me the life I want."

"So, I'm sorry!"

...

Xu Ziqi was silent for a long time.

Then.

"I understand. As you wish, we break up."

After saying these words,Xu Ziqi went back to his room to get a coat and went out.

After walking alone on the street for a while, Xu Ziqi entered a convenience store.

After buying cigarettes and alcohol, he thought about it and turned to a dessert shop to get a small cake.

Then he went to the riverside.

The magic city was still bright and bustling at night, but Xu Ziqi had no time to appreciate it.

A puff of cigarette, a sip of beer, and a bite of small cake.

Sweet and a little bitter.

He stayed alone by the river for a long time.

Until he couldn't bear it anymore, Xu Ziqi booked a room in a nearby hotel.

Before falling asleep, he lay in bed and thought for a long time.

Finally made a decision.

Go back to my hometown.

After all, my job and relationship are gone, so why stay in the big city?

Although the big city is good, the pace is too fast, so fast that it is suffocating.

Go back to my hometown to lie down, find a small job, and accompany my parents.

Although I don't have a lot of money, I am free and easy.

It's pretty good.

...

"Handsome guy!"

A delicate voice next to him pulled Xu Ziqi back from his memories.

After coming back to his senses, Xu Ziqi looked at the person next to him in confusion. It was a beautiful girl.

"What's the matter?"

The girl held the phone in both hands, a little shy, but still boldly looked at Xu Ziqi and handed the phone over.

"Can I add WeChat?"

"No!"

"..."

The rejected girl was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect this handsome guy to be so cold and ruthless, and her hand holding the phone was also suspended in the air.

Xu Ziqi didn't care about these.

He just broke up.

All women went away.

At this time, the No. 45 bus also arrived at the station.

Standing up and pulling up the suitcase, Xu Ziqi got on the bus without looking back.

There were no seats on the bus.

Xu Ziqi stood against the pole near the back door.

I was thinking whether to rest for a few days before going home or finish my work first.

A mechanical electronic sound came from my mind...

[Finding a suitable host, system binding...]

[Ding, successfully bound to the God of Cookery system. ]

System?
