Chapter 201: Poor boy, rich girl
With the help of Kong Liu, Du Hongyuan successfully became a winter vacation worker at the Peace Residence.
The store manager Wang Siting got Du Hongyuan a health certificate. Du Hongyuan worked as a waiter in the hotel during the day and worked the night shift in the security booth at night.
There is not much work to do on the night shift. Basically, I just sleep in the security booth with the air conditioner on, and occasionally check the surveillance to make sure there are no unexpected incidents such as fire or theft in the hotel.
However, the Chinese New Year is almost here, and thieves will go home for the holiday. Don't even think about theft, it will definitely not happen. Fire is the key thing to prevent.
When I woke up at three or four o'clock, I would get up and patrol the entire hotel with a flashlight.
At around six or seven o'clock, a special truck would come to deliver the food, and you would have to get up and open the door.
Except for these two time points, Du Hongyuan just had to sleep normally at other times. The beds in the security room were large soft Simmons beds, which were many times more comfortable than the broken wooden beds in school. Du Hongyuan slept soundly.
Du Hongyuan's salary as a waiter is 6,800 yuan, and his salary as a night shift security guard is 5,400 yuan, which means he makes 12,000 yuan a month. This does not include the Spring Festival bonus and overtime pay. If everything is added up, Du Hongyuan's monthly salary is estimated to be 20,000 to 30,000 yuan.
The Heping Official Residence will be closed for half a day on the afternoon of New Year's Eve and will be open as usual on New Year's Day. The salary during this period will be doubled. You can imagine how high the salary is during the New Year.
Du Hongyuan just didn't want to go home. He had good food, good drinks, good accommodation and money to earn here. He thought he could just be a useless person here peacefully.
This idea continues until the day of Little New Year in the north.
On that day, Shen Xia's father Shen Lijun and the Sun family's business manager who came from Suzhou discussed the details of the baseball jacket order, and the hotel they booked was the Heping Official Residence.
The waiter serving Shen Lijun's private room was Du Hongyuan.
At noon that day, Shen Xia did not come. The one accompanying Shen Lijun was his son Shen Wenxuan. From the moment Shen Wenxuan walked into the private room, Du Hongyuan felt that this boy looked familiar, like... Shen Xia?
Du Hongyuan felt that his idea was too absurd.
He shook his head, throwing away the weird thoughts in his mind, thinking: "I must be crazy. I actually think a man looks like Shen Xia... Am I suffering from lovesickness? Speaking of which, it's been almost half a month since the holiday. I really miss her a little. I don't know how she is doing in Gusu."
Shen Wenxuan looked at the male waiter who was staring at him and asked politely, "Hello, why are you staring at me?"
"No, no, no!" Du Hongyuan immediately waved his hand and apologized, "I'm sorry, dear guest, I mistook you for my friend."
In order to make money, the foul-mouthed Du Hongyuan has now learned to use respectful and humble words, and the phrase he says most often is: "I'm sorry!"
"It's okay." Shen Wenxuan smiled and waved his hand.
Du Hongyuan felt much better when he met such a civilized and polite customer.
After the dishes were served, Du Hongyuan quietly left the private room and stood guard at the door - according to the hotel's rules, guests are absolutely not allowed to enter the private room without being called.
When people come to the Heping Residence to eat, they are never eating for the food, but for the appearance, status, and class. The guests who come here to eat do not come for the food, but to discuss business.
A pigeon that costs less than fifty yuan, combined with a bunch of medicinal herbs worth hundreds of yuan, makes a pigeon soup that is only worth a few hundred yuan in itself, but the price on the menu is eighteen hundred yuan.
And this pigeon that costs 1,800 yuan may bring in a business order of 18 million yuan. Looking at it this way, don’t you suddenly feel that this pigeon soup that costs 1,800 yuan is not expensive at all?
In the private room, after three rounds of drinks, Shen Lijun's business negotiations went extremely smoothly. The contract for the baseball uniforms was quickly finalized. Seven days later, a batch of samples will be sent to the clothing company under the Sun family. As long as the samples are qualified, Shen Lijun's account will immediately receive a deposit of 5 million US dollars!
Shen Lijun got so happy that he drank a lot.
Looking at his father's expression, Shen Wenxuan knew that he could not handle the situation, so he called Shen Xia.
When Shen Xia hurried to the Heping official residence and saw Du Hongyuan standing at the door of the private room in a waiter's uniform, they were both stunned.
Du Hongyuan's heart skipped a beat, and at that moment he even forgot how to breathe.
It was not until his brain was deprived of oxygen that he suddenly came to his senses. Looking at Shen Xia, who was dressed luxuriously and had an extraordinary temperament, Du Hongyuan wished he could jump off the building and die right now.
There is no man in this world who would want to show his most miserable side to the girl he loves most.
Although it is not shameful to be a waiter and earn money by working, Du Hongyuan could not accept that Shen Xia saw him like this. He felt that he was the most destitute man in the world at this moment.
When Shen Xia saw Du Hongyuan, there was a hint of surprise in her eyes. She smiled calmly and generously, and greeted Du Hongyuan: "Du Hongyuan."
"what?"
Du Hongyuan lowered his head in shame, not even daring to agree to Shen Xia, and just uttered a vague "ah".
Shen Xia asked curiously: "Are you working here during the winter vacation?"
"I……"
Du Hongyuan now wanted to take off his waiter uniform and tear it into pieces. He didn't want to continue working for even a minute.
At this moment, Du Hongyuan recalled a comedy movie he watched in his childhood, "The Legend of Drunken Master".
He felt like Su Chaharcan, who was supposed to have won the title of martial arts champion and was full of vigor and ambition, but was falsely accused of cheating, his martial arts skills were ruined, and he became Su Qi'er, and met his beloved girl Rushuang.
When Du Hongyuan, who was still a child, first saw the scene of Su Qi'er smearing his face with coal ash, he just thought it was funny. Now that he has personally experienced Su Qi'er's embarrassment, he wishes he could have a basin of coal ash at this moment and smear his face with it until it is black.
In this way, he could at least say to Shen Xia: "I am not Du Hongyuan, you have the wrong person."
"..."
After being silent for a few seconds, Du Hongyuan pushed Shen Xia away and rushed downstairs.
Shen Xia stared at the boy's hurried back and froze in place for a long time before she came to her senses. It was the younger brother in the private room who came out and asked, "Sister, why are you here and not going in? Did you see the waiter brother just now?"
"without……"
Shen Xia shook her head and walked into the private room.
In the toilet on the first floor, Du Hongyuan soaked his entire face in the pool. At this moment, he really hoped to drown in the pool.
