Shanhai Hot Pot Restaurant

The second episode of "Our Store" started broadcasting, and the broadcast time is every Saturday afternoon, at [-]:[-] p.m. on the webcast platform. The platform bought the exclusive broadcasting right at a huge price. In the first period, the number of viewers in the second period is even higher.

If it weren't for the fact that there are only two episodes now, it would be too ugly to start on-demand broadcasts in advance, otherwise the platform has already started to make money like crazy.

Ming Qian took the time to finish watching the first episode, and drove it at double speed. Now he lives in a hotel and has nothing to try, so he sits on the sofa with You Jun and turns on the projector. There are snacks and fruits on the low table in front of him. Waiting for the variety show.

Half an hour before the broadcast, my friends called one by one.

"Is there you in the second issue? Should be? When will you come back? My niece has been pestering me every day since she heard that I met you. She has never been so enthusiastic about me before."

"Xiao Ming, do you have your autographed photo? Give me some more, my sister and my aunt both want it."

"Did you sign a non-disclosure contract? Why didn't you tell me, I would have known that I would also be a waiter in the past, and I could still be on TV, how beautiful it is."

There are also a few pouting buttocks daydreaming every day, asking Mingqian if he has a good relationship with the director, they want to enter the entertainment industry, earn tens of millions and then retire, Mingqian almost spit out the drink in his mouth.

Ming Qian could only reply: "If I can earn tens of millions casually, I still open a hot pot restaurant? I have already devoted myself to the show business and shined."

Mingqian has a high school classmate who is not very well connected. He started his own business in university and became the CEO of a new energy company right after graduation. He has only graduated two years ago and is said to be planning to go public.

The money that people earn in a year, most people can't earn in a lifetime.

All walks of life are the same, those at the top of the pyramid eat meat, and those at the bottom drink soup.

But it doesn't make much sense to always stare at the top group of people. You still have to look at the bottom people and their salary levels.

Ming Qian has a clear understanding of himself, he is tone deaf, his limbs are uncoordinated when he dances, and he only has neat hands and feet when chopping vegetables, let alone acting. If he is asked to cry in a scene, he can only howl, or eye drops.

If you take the vase route, there aren't enough vases in the entertainment industry nowadays?With so many vases, only a few outstanding ones can make a lot of money.

As for any vase with a bit of acting skills, Ming Qian can't match it.

Why bother?

Friends all think that he should enter the entertainment industry, what is his ideal, what is a hot pot restaurant, and being able to make money is the last word.

"If I were you, I'd go filming, take advantage of the fame now, and run away after making a fortune." Pan Yang always said so.

Ming Qian: "Have I lost my treasury? Why do you all say that? If I can enter the entertainment industry and have that ability, I will go to art school in college."

Pan Yang: "You have a good face!"

Ming Qian said helplessly: "The entertainment industry lacks good-looking people? You don't think I am popular now, it's because everyone loves to read my stories. If I really enter the entertainment industry, I will pass away when I debut, that's fine. , don’t tease me every day if you have nothing to do.”

After the phone call, Ming Qian was finally able to put the phone aside and watch TV with You Jun and his parents.

Ming's father and Ming's mother were also sitting on the sofa, and the four "people" sat in a row.

Except for Ming Qian, Youjun and Ming's father and mother all seemed a little uncomfortable.

After a lengthy sponsor's oral broadcast, the variety show screen appeared.

Ming Qian was eating fruit, and would feed You Jun a piece from time to time. The movements of the two were very natural, and Ming Qian didn't feel that there was anything wrong. He watched the variety show with relish, and felt that he was quite stable in it.

In the middle, he was still leaning forward and backward laughing, Jiang Ge contracted the laughing points of this episode, and was alone in the corner, thinking about it.

Brother Jiang really didn't see what was captured by the camera. He was immersed in his own world and felt guilty for his "incompetence".

In particular, he has always given people the impression that he is a mature and stable big brother, with the image of omnipotence.

Ming Qian picked up his mobile phone and searched Jiang Ge's name, and found that many viewers had already started "hahahahahaha".

"Hahahahaha, my stomach hurts from laughing, Brother Jiang feels as uncomfortable as a 40-year-old child."

"Although Brother Jiang is in pain, I laughed too much."

"Dong Han is also very funny. He and Brother Jiang are like two idiots. He looks really amazing with a dish. This short-term memory is comparable to a goldfish, right?"

However, Dong Han still knows the memes and posted a Weibo, reposting the short video released by the program group and adding the text "Dong Jinyu".

Originally, he was not very popular, but the comments on this Weibo quickly exceeded [-].

"Let's form C with Brother Jiang. I've already thought out the name of C for you, the Golden Years Team."

"I know Jin is a goldfish, why is it old?"

"Sui Sui Nian, but Sui Sui is not good for the group name, Sui is better."

"...It's so cold, and I can't take this c, I'm still very particular about c."

"Brother Jiang has a wife and children, can all of you enjoy this?"

"The character design is not a real person, but I just think the two characters are very good and match, ok?"

"Brother Jiang and Dong Han don't have much interaction, what's there to talk about? It's better to talk to Lin Sui and Zheng Xu."

"Don't cue Lin Sui, please Zheng Xu and Zheng Xu fans walk independently."

"This can make a quarrel? Then if you want to play c, wouldn't it be good to play Mingqian and the handsome cashier? Match your face."

"Aww! They are really a good match. It's a pity that this issue didn't give them a few shots. I wonder if there will be more shots in the next issue."

"I always have the feeling that the program group will fire C..."

"Never mind, as long as I'm having fun, I don't care if c is from the show crew or not."

In this episode, Ming Qian didn't show his face much, because the main focus is still on the guests. Even if he is occasionally captured by the camera, he is either busy or standing by the counter talking to Youjun.

Ming Qian ate a piece of watermelon, and said to his parents after eating: "Parents, do you want melon seeds? I'll get them for you."

Ming's father and Ming's mother had just watched him feed the fruit as if there was no one on both sides, and now they are already "eat" enough, so they just waved their hands and said, "No, we don't like melon seeds."

Ming Qian turned his head and looked at them suspiciously. How could he remember that his parents liked melon seeds and peanuts the most?In the past, they were always prepared at home. Is it because after becoming a ghost, tastes and hobbies will change?

"Then do you want to eat something? Seafood or something? I'll call and have someone from the hotel deliver it."

Ming's father and Ming's mother looked at each other, finally stood up and said: "Anyway, I've finished watching, let's go to the beach for a walk."

The husband and wife don't want to stay with the young lover at all, even if the young lover doesn't feel it, it is sticky and greasy.

They are getting older, and the period of passionate love has long passed. After that period, it is difficult for husband and wife to have the atmosphere of a young couple.

The main reason is that one of them is still his own son. When parents look at them, they always feel like they are spying on their son's privacy, which is very strange.

Especially in the eyes of parents, a child will always be a child, or a doll, why are they all talking about someone?

Ming Qian didn't know what his parents were thinking at all, he just thought they wanted to go out and live in a world of two.

So he watched them walk out of the villa, because his parents were ghosts now, so he didn't need to worry about their safety.

After his parents left, Ming Qian laid down on You Jun without caring about his image. You Jun put his hands on Ming Qian's shoulders, and sometimes gently rubbed Ming Qian's earlobes with his fingers.

Ming Qian raised his head suddenly, his eyes met, there was no need for words between them, You Jun lowered his head slightly, Ming Qian kept his current posture still, they kissed in the room where only the two of them were.

After yesterday, they seemed to have lifted the ban, and it was no longer just a simple lip touch.

But they separated soon, Ming Qian would always push You Jun away - not because he didn't want to get close to You Jun, but because he reacted.

His reaction is not the most important thing, the important thing is that he doesn't know if You Jun is the same as him.

If he is the only one like this, doesn't it seem that he is very...

"Let's continue watching TV." Ming Qian coughed lightly, and looked at the screen on the projector seriously, but his mind was no longer on variety shows, but on how to cover himself.

Ming Qian stood up suddenly: "I'm going to the toilet."

With his back turned to Youjun, he immediately ran to the bathroom.

After finally calming himself down, Ming Qian stood in front of the mirror, looked at his flushed cheeks, and regretted not going out to bask in the sun more before, if it was his skin color when he was in college, no one would be able to see this level of blushing.

Ming Qian washed his face with cold water in front of the sink, and went out after making sure that his face was not too red.

The variety show is almost over. The duration of a variety show is more than an hour. The specific time of each episode is not certain, but it is always around 10 minutes. Ming Qian didn’t watch variety shows much before. He was too busy with work and had to rest. There is not enough time, if you still want to watch variety shows at night, you must go to the company with dark circles under your eyes the next morning.

If you are late for 1 minute, you will be deducted five yuan, and it is timed by clocking in. If someone forgets to clock in, it will be miserable. Even if everyone in the company can testify to him, the boss will still deduct him "fairly" .

Anyway, in the three companies that Mingqian went to before, all the bosses Mingqian encountered were stingy to the extreme. Not to mention being late, even regular employees were unwilling to hire them. If they could hire interns, they would hire interns. It was cheap and convenient.

In their eyes, people can be materialized. As long as they are paid, employees should treat them like cows and horses.

Ming Qian occasionally thought of his previous life, and felt that he had a really good temper at that time, maybe it wasn't because of his good temper, but because he had to bow his head for the sake of life.

After his plan was presented to the client, the client proposed to revise the standard. Before he finished the revision, the boss called him into the office to "persuade him with kind words", thinking that he had not done his work seriously, and told him that there must be a wolf in the company to work. Sex, employees without wolf nature can't go far.

The boss hopes that all of them are wolves, but the boss hopes that these wolves eat grass, and he doesn't have to pay anything, he just needs to shout slogans and beat the employees.

Ming Qian shivered when he thought of these things, if he was allowed to go back to his previous life, he was sure he couldn't accept it.

"I sent a message to Chen Yan and asked him to prepare all the things I thought of in the store." Ming Qian sat back to his original position, but he didn't lean on You Jun like before. After all, he calmed down. He didn't want to Run to the bathroom again.

Men are like this, and they can't hide their reactions at all. Fortunately, there are only two of them here.

You Jun doesn't seem to care what Ming Qian did just now, he used to ask everything, but now he knows there are some things that don't need to be asked.

"You want to go back?" You Jun looked into Ming Qian's eyes.

Ming Qian: "No, I finally went on a trip, take this opportunity to play for two more days, and even if I go back now, I can't go to the store."

He runs a hot pot restaurant, so he really doesn't need such a high popularity. The high popularity will only affect his work.

Although thinking like this is a bit suspicious of Versailles, but the store itself can no longer accommodate more customers, and the popularity is really of no real benefit to him.

And he didn't dare to accept Weibo advertisements with high prices, for fear that he would deceive the guests, and he would probably be on the top of the list by then.

"I hope Chen Yan can get things ready soon." Ming Qian said, "How about I send Yiyi another message?"

·

When Yiyi received the news from Mingqian, Chen Yan had already bought everything back.

He is not a "straight man" without vision. The lipsticks he bought were all big-name brands, and he got a slightly lower price by virtue of his large quantity. He also bought a batch of disposable lip brushes.

Chen Yan also bought facial cleanser, which Ming Qian didn't mention.

He bought all men's disposable razors, even though they seemed completely unnecessary.

The mouthwash rubber band and the mobile phone holder were not pulled down. In order to bring a better experience to the guests, Chen Yan also asked Mingxin to come and check it every 10 minutes, and clean up the countertop after cleaning with water and paper towels.

Mingxin couldn't understand it at all, and even complained to Mingli: "It's not like opening a hotel, what's the point of doing these things? It costs so much money, have you seen those lipsticks? Girls like to buy them when I was in college. That brand is normal. The big and small ones cost [-] bottles, so it’s not cheap even if it’s a small sample, right?”

Ming Li: "..."

At least he didn't say that Chen Yan must have bought a fake, which is considered an improvement.

Mingli, who thinks that his ideological realm has already surpassed Mingxin by a large margin, said earnestly: "You can't just look at the present, you have to look at the long-term."

Mingxin: "In the long run, there must be more people who take advantage of it. The guests who come here are not here for these things. They just want to eat and drink well. If you engage in these fancy things, you will lose money."

In Mingxin's view, you can't do things that are not beneficial, otherwise you will be insane.

He used to feed stray cats, and some male classmates mocked him as a saint, asking him how much money he spent on his parents, and did he spend more on stray cats?It's useless for him to refute, and the next day the whole class will know that he is a holy father.

Girls think that he is a good person because of this, but adolescent boys, compared to girls, they hope that they have good brothers everywhere. Girls favor only the little boys, and they are "big brothers" who get along well with the boys.

Afterwards, he never fed stray cats again, nor told anyone that he liked fluffy animals.

Once he did, those people would whisper behind his back that he was a "sissy" who likes what girls like, not a masculine man.

Mingxin: "What's going on with you recently? Who brainwashed you? Do you remember what we came here for?!"

They obviously want to hug Mingqian's thigh, ask Mingqian to introduce them to a good job, and then start earning money to dawdle, find a way to make some more money, and then get married and have children in x city, buy a house, and the task will be considered as completed .

Mingli sighed, and said to Mingxin in a tone of hating iron but not steel: "I have already figured it out. It is useless for others to force us. We can only rely on ourselves. Tell me, what if Mingqian is not willing to help us?"

"Although Ming Qian is our cousin, but we haven't contacted each other for so many years, even if we are a couple, we don't have any feelings for each other, right? Even when we were young, we could only see each other twice a year."

Mingli is preparing for a long speech, and he will move Mingxin with emotion and reason, and let Mingxin accept his views.

But before he finished speaking, a girl next to him, whose cheeks were flushed from drinking, approached and asked, "Excuse me, where is the bathroom?"

Mingli raised a smiling face: "Go straight and you will arrive, do you want me to accompany you?"

The girl hesitated for two seconds: "No need, I can go there by myself."

The girl walked forward alone, she was not allergic to alcohol, her blush was completely heated, it was the first time for her to eat in this restaurant, she wanted to come before, but because she was far away from home, and every time she watched short videos, she queued up There were so many people there that she kept talking but never came.

This time, all my friends wanted to come together, and they finally squeezed in after waiting in line for two hours.

But no loss.

In the past, when she saw online celebrity shops on the Internet, she always had very high expectations. After eating, she felt that it was not enough. Maybe it was because her expectations were too high that she was easily disappointed. If you look at it from an objective perspective , Those online celebrity shops are indeed not bad among similar shops.

Taste and appearance can always be the same.

But this restaurant is completely different. She had high expectations before coming here, and even comforted herself for a while, the price is not expensive anyway, even if it is not as delicious as it says on the Internet, it is definitely not worse than ordinary hot pot barbecue Where to go.

But when she ate the hot pot and barbecue, she realized what it meant to be "well-deserved".

There is also a special person to grill the barbecue for them. In the past, when they went to a barbecue restaurant with many customers, they said that there would be waiters to help, but the waiters were so busy that they came to take a look after calling each other. Always trouble others, just like Zhou Paipi.

But here, these waiters are also busy, and they are looking at several tables at the same time, but they seem to be pinching the time, they can always come over at the right time to turn the barbecue, or put it aside to serve them new vegetable.

In the past, compared with the barbecue grilled by the waiter, it was the difference between meat and charcoal.

The finished products baked by the waiter are not only tender and delicious, but also in a short time. They have been eating non-stop since they were served, and they are eighty percent full. The waiter will also take out some charcoal fire, so that they can eat slowly. chat.

The girl felt a little regretful, she should have come here earlier if she knew the taste and service here were so good, how much time wasted now?

I don't know when the next time I'll be here.

She went straight into the women's bathroom, came out after using the bathroom, and when she was about to wash her hands, she found a pile of very familiar things on the sink—makeup setting spray, lipstick samples, and a small eye shadow.

On the left is something for women, on the right is something for men.

But compared to the left side, there are fewer things on the right side, at most a men's facial cleanser is added.

The girl looked in the mirror, and she was wearing delicate makeup in the mirror.

She loves makeup, which is one of her hobbies, especially European and American makeup. Although her facial features don't suit her, it doesn't mean she can't try it.

It's just that the color of makeup I put on today is relatively dark, but the color of lipstick is wrong. I don't have dark lipstick at home, so I can only wear plum color.

Now the lipstick on her mouth is gone, the girl looks a little embarrassed to the left and right, and picks up the lipstick after making sure no one is looking at her. Put the good cover back, and she held the darker one in her hand.

Finally picked one out.

You still have to use a lip brush from a hot pot restaurant to dip in this kind of public stuff and apply it to your mouth.

After painting, you have to hang up the piece you used.

These are all written on the notice next to it.

The girl is a little strange, does it all depend on the customer's self-consciousness?What if there are customers with low quality and unconsciousness?

But the one she took has never been used, so don't worry too much about it.

After putting on the lipstick, the girl threw away the disposable lip brush, scraped the place she used with a disposable cardboard, and then put the lid back on.

Back at my table, the girl just sat down when the friend next to her said, "Have you put on lipstick? Why is this color different from the one you put on this afternoon? You brought two? This color is pretty pretty." "

The girl leaned into her friend's ear and whispered: "There are makeup and makeup remover items on the sink outside the bathroom, as well as small pieces of eye shadow. Didn't you say that you forgot to put on eye shadow today? You can use it in the past."

Friend: "I have sensitive skin, and the cosmetics I use are fixed brands, and I don't dare to use eye shadows indiscriminately."

Girl: "Do you think it's a miscellaneous brand? I saw that they are all big brands and small samples, and the ones sold online are not cheap."

The friend hesitated: "It can't be fake, right?"

After all, it is a free item. Many people think that it is not good if it is cheap, let alone something that does not cost money.

It is generally believed that most of the free things are defective products, especially if they are encountered in such stores that do not charge high fees.

Girl: "I don't think so. I also use this brand of lipstick frequently. It tastes and feels the same on the lips, but I'm not sure. Why don't you use a little bit first, and then continue to use it if there is no reaction."

The friend stood up and said, "That's fine, I'll try it, come over to eat after a little use, and then go there after eating."

My friend was also very interested in the makeup area that the girl mentioned. She walked to the destination in three steps and two steps, but when she got close, she was startled by the scene in front of her.

A bunch of people ran over to watch the fun, some were using it, and some were watching from the sidelines.

There was actually a man running over to shave his beard.

A man held a disposable razor and said excitedly: "Don't talk about it! It's better than the one in the hotel!"

friend:"……"

Are you here to do a razor review at a hot pot restaurant? !
