Chapter 17 He's willing to pay to work!
Taken aback by Wang Xiao's sudden question, Snowman paused for a moment before saying with a complicated expression, "Boss Wang, my situation is a bit special. I don't know if I'm lucky or unlucky..."
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiao immediately became interested: "Hey, buddy, you really have a story to tell?"
Wang Xiao spoke up: "Tell me."
After trying to recall for a moment, Brother Snowman slowly said, "Boss Wang, before explaining my situation, please allow me to introduce myself first."
My name is Lu Ran, I'm 25 years old, and I graduated from a culinary school with an intermediate chef's certificate. Since I recently joined the hotel, I'm in charge of some common banquets. My strengths include...
Before Lu Ran could finish speaking, Wang Xiao grasped the key point in Lu Ran's words.
Intermediate chef certificate? He actually has one!
Wang Xiao was secretly delighted: This is truly heaven's help!
Now that he's found someone with a chef's certificate, surely that will meet the system's stringent requirements, right?
While Lu Ran was trying to sell himself to Wang Xiao as Wei Yan had instructed in order to secure a place at the hotel, Wang Xiao, upon learning that Lu Ran was a mid-level chef, was also having the system review Lu Ran's qualifications.
[The review is currently underway to determine whether former hotel employee 'Lu Ran' possesses the qualifications and skills required to work as a hotel chef...]
[Lu Ran, male, 25 years old, graduated from ** Culinary Academy, has accumulated 6 years of experience in the culinary industry, obtained an intermediate chef's certificate, and possesses skilled knife skills... Currently employed at Xinyue Hotel, and after system verification, this person 'Lu Ran' meets the minimum requirements for the hotel chef position.]
Upon seeing the system notification that Lu Ran met the requirements for a hotel chef, Wang Xiao's eyes lit up. He hadn't expected to find such a talented person.
Fortunately, Wei Yan didn't treat this guy as scrap, otherwise he would have lost a valuable general for nothing.
Praise for the cold storage.
Praise to Brother Snowman.
Wei Yan will be rewarded with more sweeping of the building tomorrow.
"Boss Wang, besides the usual..."
Just as Lu Ran was still engrossed in promoting himself, Wang Xiao suddenly stepped forward, grabbed Lu Ran's hand, and said with a smile:
"Chef Lu, hello, hello. I've heard so much about you. I wonder if it would be convenient for you to leave your previous hotel and join my more promising Peace Hotel as head chef?"
Lu Ran, who was still thinking about how to introduce himself in a way that would allow him to stay, was caught off guard by Wang Xiao's sudden invitation and didn't know how to start. Even the introduction he hadn't finished was left unsaid.
Lu Ran looked at Wei Yan, his eyes filled with doubt.
No, bro, this isn't what you said.
Didn't you say that your boss is difficult to talk to and that you should try to make your resume as unique and attractive as possible?
How come your boss sent me an invitation before I even finished my self-introduction?
Or should I take on the role of head chef?
Is this...is this real?
Wei Yan also fell into self-doubt: You ask me, I don't know either.
Based on his observations, Wang Xiao's work style doesn't seem like that of someone who would hire people casually.
He was able to get the job purely because of his original shares, while Xue Wu and his wife practically sold their lives to Wang Xiao to get the job.
Logically speaking, someone like you who locks himself in the cold storage should be kicked out of the hotel by the boss, right?
Faced with Wang Xiao's enthusiastic invitation, Lu Ran felt incredulous, but after learning about the situation outside, he firmly grasped Wang Xiao's hand.
Lu Ran said sincerely, "Thank you for your kindness, Boss Wang. I, Lu Ran, am willing to join the Peace Hotel from today and serve you with utmost loyalty."
As for the Crescent Hotel, sorry, I'm not familiar with it, please don't bother me.
What? You're saying I don't feel ashamed to say this in the Crescent Hotel?
What kind of talk is that!
This place is clearly called the Peace Hotel!
The Heavenly King himself has arrived today, and this place is also called the Peace Hotel!
You're saying there's no salary?
As long as he can stay in the hotel and survive, I'd be willing to give him my bank card PIN, let alone not get paid.
He's willing to pay to work for him!
Money? Sorry, it's the least useful thing right now.
The moment Lu Ran agreed to join the hotel, several system notifications instantly appeared in Wang Xiao's mind.
[Task: Greet every "God" with a smile.]
Current progress: 4/5.
[Please keep up the good work, host, and find more talent for the hotel.]
……
[Your sincerity has helped your hotel discover a chef with tremendous potential. Nurture him, and perhaps one day he will become a star attraction for your hotel.]
[The mission cafeteria should be a place to eat! Completed]
[Current progress of calmed personnel: 9/9.]
[Current chef search progress: 1/1.]
[Task Rating: Excellent]
[Task Rewards: +1 Free Attribute Point, +10 Experience Points, +5 Points, 1 Chef Skill Book.]
[Bonus Rewards: Experience Points +10, Points +5]
……
Looking at the system's notification, Wang Xiao's lips curled slightly.
How could it not become a golden brand?
Right now, he's probably the only one in the world still thinking about running a hotel in this kind of environment...
But none of that matters; getting the rewards from the system is what really matters.
If the pay is good enough, it wouldn't be a problem for him to kidnap zombies and use them as security guards right now.
After a brief exchange, the two happily completed the shortest job-hopping operation in the post-apocalyptic world.
Although Lu Ran had successfully joined the Peace Hotel, Wang Xiao still couldn't help but ask him why he would rather cosplay as a snowman than fight zombies.
When this matter was mentioned, the smile on Lu Ran's face vanished instantly, replaced by a look of sorrow and resentment as he said, "Boss, it's not what you think. The situation at the time was too special."
I remember I was moving ingredients into the cold storage when some son of a bitch suddenly slammed the door shut on me.
Then I started banging on the door for help, but it seemed like the CS guy outside was deliberately trying to hurt me. The louder I banged, the louder he banged.
After the cooling started, I don't know why, but I ended up sitting down against the cabinet...
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiao could roughly guess what had happened. It seemed that this guy's luck was indeed something special.
They say he's lucky; he got locked up even when he was just delivering vegetables.
While some might say he was unlucky, he also managed to escape unscathed because of this.
It can only be said that fortune and misfortune are intertwined.
Seeing that Lu Ran was getting more and more excited, Wang Xiao reached out and patted him on the shoulder, saying seriously, "Chef Lu, you don't need to say more, I understand what you mean."
So, you should rest well today. If you need anything, just tell Wei Yan.
"How about you show everyone your skills again tomorrow after you've rested up?"
Facing Wang Xiao, who had placed high hopes on him, Lu Ran nodded vigorously and said, "Okay, boss, I will definitely live up to your expectations."
"Alright, then you should get some rest. Remember to pick a room at the front desk later. There are so many rooms in the hotel, you two grown men shouldn't squeeze together."
After saying that, Wang Xiao turned and walked downstairs. He needed to discuss tomorrow's arrangements with Xue Wu.
[Since the rioters on the street have not been dealt with for a long time, you, with your foresight, believe that these rioters may disrupt the hotel's power supply, thereby causing significant harm to the hotel's operations. As the hotel owner, you have decided to take some precautions in advance.]
[Mission: What's yours is mine, and what's mine is still mine.]
[Task Description: To ensure the hotel's smooth opening, you've decided to negotiate with your competitors to borrow a few generators as a precaution.]
Current progress: 0/3
[Task Rewards: Experience +40, Points +20, Generator Improvement Blueprint *1]
