Suppressing his excitement, Zhuangzi’s ears pricked up even more.
He was getting closer and closer to Gu Yundong and Zheng Gang. In the end, he simply stood behind Zheng Gang and wiped the back of his chair with a cloth. Gu Yundong was speechless. Could you be more obvious?
Zheng Gang did not know whether to laugh or cry. He simply asked on his behalf, “Boss, I’m naturally willing to go to the prefectural city. Then how should we arrange the shop here?”
Gu Yundong tapped her fingers on the table and glanced sideways at Zhuangzi, who had suddenly stopped nervously. She smiled and said, “Uncle Zheng, do you have any suggestions?”
“Actually, although this shop has only been open for less than a year, business has always been very good. There are many customers, and most of them are regular customers. Therefore, it’s better to use a familiar person to be the shopkeeper. Zhuangzi has been here since the shop opened. He’s most familiar with this place and has feelings for it. The customers like him very much. Moreover, he has been learning calligraphy and writing with me these days. He has become more and more mature and steady. He’s the most suitable person.”
Zhuangzi looked at Zheng Gang in a daze. The man’s words moved him so much that his eyes turned red.
He was usually very strict with her and would say that Zhuangzi was too slippery and not steady enough. Zhuangzi did not expect him to have such a high evaluation in front of his boss.
Simply, simply too evil.
Gu Yundong glanced at him and smiled. “Actually, I’ve also considered Zhuangzi as the shopkeeper.”
Zhuangzi’s body stiffened. After these days of training, he immediately understood the meaning behind Gu Yundong’s words.
‘Has considered it?’
In other words, she was no longer considering it?
Zhuangzi immediately felt a little disappointed and lowered his head weakly. Thinking about it, it made sense. After all, he was still young. How could he be promoted to shopkeeper after being a shop assistant for such a short period of time?
However, he did not know what the new shopkeeper’s personality was like. Was he easy to talk to? Was he like Shopkeeper Zheng who taught him how to read and write?
Now that he thought about it, he suddenly realized that Shopkeeper Zheng was really tolerant and concerned about him.
He was usually a little strict with his words, but whenever there was anything delicious or useful, he would give Zhuangzi a portion.
The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. Zhuangzi felt like crying.
Gu Yundong quickly added, “However, after thinking about it, there’s another choice. No matter what, Zhuangzi needs to think it through himself.” Zhuangzi was stunned. He blinked. What did that mean?
What was the other choice?
“Boss, what do you want me to think about?”
Gu Yundong smiled. “Uncle Zheng is right. After he goes to the prefectural city, this shop indeed needs a skilled person to manage it. You are the most suitable.”
Zhuangzi’s heart, which had just sunk, suddenly came back to life. His eyes lit up.
Gu Yundong said, “You’ll be the shopkeeper for three months.”
“What? You won’t let me be the shopkeeper after three months?” Wasn’t this too short?
“Three months later, I’ll give you two choices. One is to continue staying here as a shopkeeper. The other is to go to the prefectural city and continue working under Uncle Zheng. You can decide what you want.”
Zhuangzi was dumbfounded. This, this, this…
This choice was too difficult. He was too difficult.
“Boss, I have to think about this carefully.” His mind was a little chaotic now. Being a shopkeeper had always been his dream. In the previous fifteen minutes, this was still his ultimate goal.
However, going to the prefectural city did not seem like a bad idea.
On the other hand, if he went there, he still had to be a shop assistant. After being a shopkeeper for three months, he would be demoted to a shop assistant.
