During these three days, Shen An secretly observed Wang Er and discovered that he had found two or three young children from somewhere.

Several people each designated an area to distribute flyers, and they made sure to hand the flyers carefully to passers-by.

If they find someone has lost it, they will pick it up and distribute it again.

Three days later, when Wang Er came to collect the remaining half tael of silver, Li Shao asked him if he was willing to stay in the wine shop as a waiter, two taels of silver a month.

Wang Er agreed immediately. He now looks for work on the street every day. When times are good he can earn at most 100 to 200 coins a day.

But when the weather is bad or there is no work, they are penniless. Moreover, their job requires little technical skills and the competition is fierce.

He was unwilling to go along with them and was always excluded. Now he often didn't earn a penny for several days in a row.

Ever since his father died of illness, leaving behind a huge debt for them and their four children, life has been extremely difficult.

His younger brothers and sisters were still young, and the money he earned from this job was sometimes more and sometimes less, never enough to support his family. He had no other skills or ways to earn money.

His mother earned money by washing clothes for others. Her hands were so hard-working that they looked like those of a person in her 50s, and she would get frostbite in the winter.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Li was willing to keep him as a waiter in the wine shop, and he was paid two taels of silver a month.

He will definitely work hard and once he pays off the family debt, his mother won't have to work so hard anymore.

He was so excited that he was about to kneel down to Li Shao, but was stopped by Shen An, "Our master doesn't like others to kneel down."

Wang Er quickly changed to bowing, and while bowing he said excitedly: "Master Li, no, I should call you Master Dong, Master Dong, thank you so much, thank you so much."

"I, I, I don't know what to say, but don't worry, if you give me this opportunity, I will do my best and not cheat or play dirty."

Li Shao smiled and said, "Shen An is the owner of this wine shop. If you have any problems in the future, just go to him directly. If you don't know anything, just ask him. Just do your job well. You will sign an employment agreement later and you can start work tomorrow."

Shen An also echoed: "Wang Er, the master and I know everything about your family. The master is kind-hearted and knows that it is not easy for you. He is filial to his parents and loves his brothers and sisters. He is an honest and kind person."

"Work hard when you come to the wine shop. As long as you don't do anything to let the wine shop down or the master down, you will have a good life after paying off the debt."

"The master also said that considering your family's situation, after the contract is signed, I will give you a month's salary in advance. You can take it home to pay off debts or buy some things. It's up to you."

Shen An was also hinting to him that we have investigated your family background thoroughly, so don't think of any bad ideas, otherwise you will end up in trouble.

Wang Er is a smart man, how could he not hear it?

However, he did not think that there was anything wrong with what the boss and the shopkeeper did. Other stores would also conduct investigations when hiring waiters. Those doing legitimate business would definitely require that the people they hire have a clean background.

Moreover, he could get an advance on his wages without having done a single day's work. Wang Er, who had been working on the streets for several years and had seen the fickleness of human nature, felt very happy at this moment.

With tears welling up in his eyes, he said, "Boss, shopkeeper, don't worry. If I dare to have any evil thoughts, I will be struck by lightning. From now on, the wine shop is my home, and I will definitely protect our shop well."

Li Shao smiled and patted his shoulder. "Okay, there's no need to be so serious. Just do your job well. We don't have so many rules here. Listen to Shen An in everything from now on."

Shen An also agreed: "Yes, come over here, let's sign the contract first, and then I'll give you an advance on your wages."

Wang Er smiled and nodded vigorously.

Ever since a waiter appeared in the wine shop, Li Shao no longer came here every day and only took a look from time to time.

Shen An is basically here watching every day. After all, Wang Er is new and they don't know him that well. Shen An is worried about leaving him alone to look after the store.

Handing out flyers did have an effect, and many people came to the store to see what was new. Most of them wanted to see what kind of wine was sold at such a high price.

I want to try it, but the rule here in Li Shao is that you have to buy it if you want to, and you can't even taste or smell it, let alone taste it.

Li Shao even asked Shen An to make a display board for this rule and put it at the entrance. It was very eye-catching, and those who wanted to come and have a taste of it left cursing.

On that day, a man in his forties stood at the door of the store, standing in front of a sign that read "Please do not smell, taste, or drink any of the medicinal liquor in this store."

Jin Lai Fu is 41 years old this year. His family is in the business of silk, cloth, jewelry and jade. They have been doing business for generations and are related to the current imperial merchants. He has never lacked money.

Apart from doing business, I only have two hobbies in my life, one is food and the other is beautiful women.

In addition to the wife, there are also many wives and concubines and many children in the family. He is a man with some conscience. Basically, he will take those who are on good terms with him into his home and will not leave them without a place to stay.

Being surrounded by a group of soft and fragrant beauties is a great enjoyment when you are young, but as you get older, it becomes increasingly difficult to do so.

The women and girls at home line up every day to bring him soup and flirt with him in order to win his favor. No one knows the pain in his heart, but a man cannot say no.

For their sake, he could only rely on medicine, but taking too much medicine not only was ineffective, it also had great side effects. Two years ago, he took too much and almost died. The entire Jin family was in an uproar.

The person was rescued, but he lost all his face. His mother scolded his wife and a bunch of concubines, and he was so embarrassed that he wished he had not rescued him.

From then on, he started taking various kinds of soups and tonics. The doctor diagnosed that his body had recovered in the past year, but his sexual function might not be as good as before, and he should focus on maintaining his health in the future.

He didn't believe it at first, but when he went to the concubines' rooms, he found that they were indeed useless and those who smelled bad to him were not allowed to stay overnight.

Now he doesn't dare to take medicine randomly anymore. He has drunk a lot of tonic soups and medicinal wines that are not harmful to the body, but they are of no use at all.

He happened to see a flyer for Yangyuan Liquor Shop a few days ago, but he didn't think the price of the medicinal liquor was expensive.

He just thought that if it was really as effective as the flyer said and did not harm the body, he could afford any amount of money.

Today, I deliberately did not let my entourage follow me, and ran to Yangyuan Liquor Shop by myself to see what was going on.
