"Excuse me, are you hiring here? I just saw a job posting outside—" A girl with a ponytail pushed the door open and was so surprised when she saw Cheng Lang and Shen Huaiyu that she lost her voice.

"Hiring!" Cheng Lang put the teacup on the table, walked up to the girl, and said, "Please sit down. Can you make milk tea?"

He then went to the water dispenser and poured a glass of water for the girl.

"Thank you!" The girl stood up in a somewhat flattered manner and took the water cup with both hands, "I can make milk tea. I used to work in a milk tea shop."

As she spoke, the girl's face became redder and redder. She had never talked to such a handsome boy in her life.

"Are you two also employees of the milk tea shop?" The girl's eyes sparkled. If she can work with such a handsome boy, it doesn't matter if she gets a lower salary.

"We are the owners of a milk tea shop." Cheng Lang said, "Can you introduce yourself first? How should I call you?"

"My name is Liang Yanyan, I'm 20 years old. I've been a waiter and a salesperson. I've worked in burger shops, barbecue restaurants, hot pot restaurants, and milk tea shops before. I can do everything..."

"What was your last job, and why did you quit?" Cheng Lang asked.

"My last job was working in a milk tea shop. The boss of that milk tea shop was a man, and he always put his hands on me, so I quit." Liang Yanyan saw Cheng Lang and Shen Huaiyu and immediately said, "But I believe you will never do that."

Liang Yanyan said this, looking at Cheng Lang and Shen Huaiyu eagerly, "I can do everything, and I am especially willing to endure hardships. Really."

Cheng Lang and Shen Huaiyu looked at each other and said, "Make a cup of milk tea for us to try first."

Liang Yanyan said, "No problem."

Cheng Lang took people to the back kitchen and said, "Everything is ready. You can use it, right?"

"I can." Liang Yanyan nodded, rolled up her sleeves, and started to work as soon as she entered.

Cheng Lang carefully observed Liang Yanyan's movements and found that Liang Yanyan was quick with her hands and feet, making milk tea and cleaning at the same time, and she did a particularly clean job.

Liang Yanyan made a cup of the most common original milk tea. She wanted to put pearls in it but couldn't find any.

Cheng Lang explained, "I just redeemed this store. It hasn't opened yet, and some of the ingredients have been stored for a long time and are not fresh, so I threw them away."

Liang Yanyan suddenly realized. She brought out the milk tea and looked at Cheng Lang expectantly.

Cheng Lang poured one for Shen Huaiyu, "You should try it too."

Shen Huaiyu nodded, held the cup with both hands, and took a sip of milk tea, "It tastes good."

Cheng Lang also took a sip. It was quite standard—the kind of milk tea that can be defined as delicious on the market.

"You worked in a milk tea shop before, how was your monthly salary calculated?" Cheng Lang asked.

"A monthly salary of 3,000, with a 1% commission. There are two days off every month. Work nine hours a day, two shifts." Liang Yanyan said honestly.

Before Cheng Lang posted the recruitment notice, he went to several other milk tea shops near the school to inquire. Hearing this, he immediately said, "Our basic salary here is 4,000, and there is also a 1% commission. There are four days off every month, and work eight hours a day, also in two shifts. Overtime is paid."

Liang Yanyan took a breath of cool air.

Cheng Lang glanced over, "What's wrong?"

"Why do you want to give such a high base salary?" Liang Yanyan looked at Cheng Lang and Shen Huaiyu in shock and couldn't help saying, "If the salary is so high, it will be a loss, right?"

Cheng Lang laughed dumbly, "High salary, naturally high requirements. We will sign a formal contract with employees. After signing the contract, employees are not allowed to leave without permission. Special skills learned in our store are not allowed to be taken outside."

Hearing Cheng Lang's cautious words, Liang Yanyan asked carefully, "You should be worried that employees will open their own stores after learning skills from you? Of course, I won't do such an unethical thing. But can I ask, what special skills do you plan to teach me?" So cautious that they have to sign a contract?

Cheng Lang glanced at Shen Huaiyu and said confidently, "It has not been invented yet. But don't worry, it will be invented. It will definitely amaze everyone."

Shen Huaiyu clenched his fists shyly and excitedly after hearing what Cheng Lang said. Cheng Lang trusted him so much, he would definitely work hard.

Liang Yanyan: "..." Is this boss really reliable?

No matter how worried Liang Yanyan was, she still signed the contract for the good looks of the two bosses and the super high salary. After signing the contract, Liang Yanyan asked, "When can I start working?"

When the milk tea shop was transferred, the boss gave him an extra month. Cheng Lang originally wanted to wait until everything was ready before talking about opening the shop. 

After all, the batch of drinks he asked for from White Jade Capital's purchasing manager, Chen Haijin, had not arrived yet. But Liang Yanyan didn't expect that she couldn't accept it. 

She looked at Cheng Lang and said carefully, "How about we open the milk tea shop first? After Brother Shen's special skills are invented, I will receive training?"

Liang Yanyan really didn't believe what the two bosses said. She knew that young people nowadays are ambitious, and it would take a long time for them to invent new technology for making milk tea.

You said these two bosses are young and handsome. But their brains are not very good.

In an instant, Cheng Lang and Shen Huaiyu became rich second-generations who wanted to start a business but were unreliable in their work in Liang Yanyan's heart. For her new job and to help the two handsome guys waste less money, Liang Yanyan patiently communicated, "Look, our milk tea shop has been renovated, and there are still a lot of materials in the back kitchen. It's a pity to leave it empty every day. Why not start the milk tea shop first? We can earn a little bit."

Shen Huaiyu looked at Cheng Lang, and he felt that what Liang Yanyan said made sense.

"But we haven't hired enough people for this milk tea shop." Cheng Lang said. Such a big milk tea shop can't be run by Liang Yanyan alone.

"Huaiyu and I are both students of X University. We have classes during the day and part-time jobs at night. We don't have time—"

"I can do it alone." Liang Yanyan said. She worked in a milk tea shop before, and she was also responsible for many things by herself. Although the work is a little hard and trivial, as long as there are not too many customers in the store, Liang Yanyan can be busy by herself.

"Is your store usually doing well?" Thinking of this, Liang Yanyan asked.

Cheng Lang and Shen Huaiyu smiled at each other. The business of this store before can no longer be described as good or bad.

"Then you can handle it alone first." Cheng Lang didn't care. There are surveillance cameras in the milk tea shop, and Cheng Lang has nothing to worry about. "During the trial operation stage, the business hours can be from 9 am to 6 pm. Your task is to record the tastes of customers and see what everyone likes to drink. By the way, recruit a few more staff."

Liang Yanyan pointed at herself and said, "Should I recruit a clerk?"

Cheng Lang nodded, "After the staff are hired, you will spend the longest time with each other. So of course you have to get along well with each other. I only have one requirement, professionalism, dedication, and a good temper."

"I understand." Liang Yanyan nodded excitedly. She didn't expect that on the first day of work, the bosses would think so highly of her, "We are in the service industry, so, of course, we have to have a good temper and can't quarrel with customers. Don't worry. I will definitely recruit staff with good personalities and delicious milk tea."

Cheng Lang handed Liang Yanyan a set of keys to the milk tea shop. He let Liang Yanyan clean the shop and prepare for tomorrow's opening and dragged Shen Huaiyu back to school.

Shen Huaiyu looked at Cheng Lang curiously, "Do you trust that girl so much?"

"I trust people when I work for them." Cheng Lang said with a smile, "It's just a milk tea shop."

Shen Huaiyu frowned slightly.

Cheng Lang smiled and said, "Didn't you say that the milk tea shop should open as soon as possible?"

"But I think you seem to have your own plans." Shen Huaiyu pursed his lips, "Did I mess up your plans?"

"It's not that exaggerated." Cheng Lang chuckled and said, "I said, this is our business. Of course, we have to work together. Although I want to have everything ready, your consideration is also reasonable. Everything is difficult at the beginning, and there are not so many perfect opportunities in this world. First, start the milk tea shop, and then the subsequent planning can follow slowly. No Fortune 500 company has a market value of hundreds of billions as soon as it opens. We have to do it step by step."

Shen Huaiyu finally felt relieved after listening to Cheng Lang's words. He grew up with his parents and was planned by his parents to study and learn. He rarely made decisions on his own. So every time he made a decision, he would always worry about gains and losses for a long time. He knew that this habit of his was not good. But he couldn't change it in a short time.

"I wish I could be as good as you." Shen Huaiyu couldn't help but say. He really envied Cheng Lang, who could do everything so well.

"I think you are also very good! You are so good at studying, you can also make tea, repair cultural relics, and are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting." Cheng Lang said with a smile, "Everyone has something they are good at. Don't blame yourself for everything."

A gentle person must be gentle in doing things; a cautious person must look ahead and behind in doing things; a kind, gentle, and simple-minded person will most likely be helpless when encountering malicious intentions. But who can say that gentleness is not good? Caution is not good? Kind, gentle, and simple-minded people are not good?

"Don't think too much." Cheng Lang patted Shen Huaiyu on the shoulder, "Go back and change your clothes. Come with me to the studio to return things. Then have dinner, and we have to go to the bar in the evening."

"Okay." Shen Huaiyu nodded, looking at Cheng Lang with eyes full of dependence.
