I am a writer

Chapter 245 Pension Insurance

"Don't come too many people, don't come too many people, it's better to have hail and blades..."

Peng Min stood beside the bookshelf and prayed silently.

He is an intern at Sisyphus Bookstore. His salary is only 600 yuan in transportation subsidies, but his workload is heavy. He often needs to stand from morning to night, basically without any rest time.

The inventory needs to be checked frequently, and the goods must be put on the shelves. It is really not easy for him who is slightly afraid of heights to climb to the high shelves to organize books.

Working in a bookstore really requires emotion. Originally, Peng Min thought that he would be able to read books often when he came to Sisyph for an internship, but he didn't know that there was no time to sit down and rest!

Even if the internal employees can borrow books to read, who will be so tired after get off work, who has the energy to go home and read slowly.

Peng Min is not the owner of a bookstore, nor does he have a sales commission. Of course, he hopes that the weather will be as bad as possible.

God seems to have heard his heart.

There was a rumbling thunder, and the big raindrops crackled on the glass wall of the bookstore.

Pedestrians on the street quickened their pace.

Some took out their umbrellas, some came to the corner of the street, some ran to the subway entrance, and some came to the door of the bookstore.

"Isn't it? I am really God's favorite cub?" Peng Min felt ecstatic and continued to make a wish: "I hope I can find a good employer during the fall recruitment in the second half of the year, and never fall into a pit like Sisyphus. .”

Just as he was looking forward to it, the store manager quietly came behind him, coughed twice, and said, "We've already opened the door, what are we still doing hiding here! It's raining, and some customers come in to hide from the rain, so you sell and sell."

"Σ(дlll)"

Peng Min's eyes widened.

Shouldn't there be no customers on a rainy day? How come so many people come in?
He was too young after all.

I didn't know that a rainy day is more suitable for a bookstore.

"Did you help me make a wish for nothing?"

Peng Min felt 1 shit in his heart, and was extremely unwilling to come to the door.

Sisyphus is not very active in selling books, but it sells a lot of creative products, which is why Peng Min doesn't like to intern here.

I thought I was here to recommend works to readers, but I didn't expect it to become a sale!
Pedestrians who are not in a hurry just stop and go in the bookstore, look around, randomly find a book from the bookshelf, and put it back after opening two pages.

This type of customer is basically killing time and not buying anything.

On the other hand, the kind of customers who rush into the bookstore without looking around at all, but go straight to the new book section must have a target.

"Hello, may I help you?" Peng Min smiled.

The hurried middle-aged man on the opposite side was holding a handbag and a newspaper under his arm. After looking around the new book shelf area, he found that he couldn't find the target, so he answered: "I want to find Qin Chuan's new book. I suddenly forgot the name, but it’s a mystery novel about the Tang Dynasty.”

"Qin Chuan?"

Peng Min understood as soon as he heard it, he walked to the poster next to the new book shelf area, took out a book from the top of the stack, handed it over and said, "This is "Detective Di Renjie"."

"Yes, yes, this is the book." The middle-aged uncle looked at the huge words written by Qin Chuan on the cover and felt relieved, "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Peng Min was very curious about this book.

Sisyphus Bookstore has its own logistics, basically several bookstores in the area share a large warehouse and logistics.

"Detective Di Renjie" had been delivered a few days ago, but it was only placed this morning by two employees.

Due to being too busy, Peng Min never had a chance to read it, and he was not interested in history or reasoning, so he didn't like it even more.

In comparison, he still likes to use his spare time to read those cold jokes and poisonous chicken soup works.

When there are still customers in the store, you will be scolded for reading novels blatantly.

Peng Min found that he seemed to be rooted next to the stack of "Detective Di Renjie". From time to time, people came to inquire and buy, and there was a huge difference in age.

There are retired old men in their 60s, students in their teens wearing school uniforms, and even more middle-aged people in their 30s and 40s!
"When did Qin Chuan expand his fan base to these age groups? I thought young people would like to read his novels."

Peng Min secretly marveled in his heart.

He naturally likes to read, otherwise he would not choose to come to the bookstore for an internship during the summer vacation, and there are many classmates and friends around him who like to read.

The memory of Qin Chuan is mostly in online novels, even though he has bought several physical books.

Only now did Peng Min discover that the physical education teacher who tortured and cried countless readers on the Internet is actually so popular in real life!

You know, the place where he is now is not a prosperous area of ​​a first-tier city.

"It seems that Qin Chuan is really popular. So many people come to buy his novel, it must be that he has written pension insurance in advance!"

If a writer can have one or two works that sell for a long time, it is no different from pension insurance.

It is very rare to have a pension insurance.

Peng Min couldn't help turning the pages of the book quietly, wanting to see what's attractive inside.

Who knew that just looking at it would be mesmerized immediately!

The protagonist Di Renjie was ordered in the face of danger. It turned out that the frontier was not peaceful during the Wu Zhou Dynasty.

Although he knew Wu Zetian, it was limited to a small chapter in the history textbook. He had watched a lot of film and television works, and the one that left a deep impression on him was the childhood shadow of killing a girl to preach the Tao.

Turning back page by page, Peng Min imitated the other readers, even squatting on the stairs, holding a book with relish and reading non-stop.

"Xiao Peng..."

A familiar voice came from beside him.

But Peng Min didn't react at all, he was immersed in the sea of ​​books and couldn't extricate himself.

It would be fine if Peng Min was a customer. He wore a staff uniform and sat with the readers, which was particularly conspicuous.

A regular employee wanted to mention him.

After inspecting the bookstore, the store manager's eyes were directly attracted by the small stairs of the bookstore.

Although there are readers sitting on the steps of the stairs to read books every day, the employees are not allowed to sit and read too!

So he walked to Peng Min's side with normal steps, and stood there quietly, wondering when the child would find out.

Peng Min had no other distractions, his eyes were only focused on reading the text, so he couldn't be in the mood to pay attention to who was next to him.

What's more, all he could see with his eyes was a pair of leather shoes and trousers, which he couldn't recognize.

The store manager's face turned blue, and he stood on the steps for almost 3 minutes, but the kid still didn't respond, so he could only bend down and pat Peng Min on the shoulder: "It's working time now, is your job reading? "

The sudden shock made Peng Min shudder.

I'm scared to death!

"Ah, manager!"

After standing up, Peng Min quickly closed the book, "I'll take it back and put it away right away."

"Let's not take this as an example. If you read books during working hours, you don't need to use them." The store manager warned, "Didn't you tell you the responsibilities of the store staff during the training? You post-zeros really have no sense of professional ethics. The time is not good to listen to, usually cheating and cheating, not even doing sales well, what kind of work are you doing, just go home and eat the old man."

It is estimated that the scolding was smooth, and the map cannon was accidentally fired.

Who knew that Peng Min hadn't planned to continue doing it long ago.

Hearing what the store manager said at this moment, he was even more aggrieved, "I just don't want to come, I really thought that the interns would generate electricity for love, they have to work three hours more than the regular employees every day, and they have to sell things for you Selling coffee. The 600 yuan subsidy will be given to you to buy Liuwei Dihuang Wan!"

Peng Min originally planned to wait half a month to get the internship certificate, but now he doesn't want to endure it.

After finishing speaking, he ignored the store manager and other customers on the steps, and took off his work clothes while walking, and at the same time, he did not forget to take the unfinished "Detective Di Renjie" to the cashier.

If you want to leave, you have to buy a book before leaving!
