Chapter 1(1/2)

Many students in the Magic City University Town recently passed on a word of mouth:

A very strange store was recently opened in the University Town Garbage Street. The store was called "Meeting". Two very simple words were made with an ordinary light box on the front of the store - Meeting!

Well! Such a store suddenly appeared.

No one seems to know when it opened. There was no celebration when it opened. There was no noise and buzzing sound at the door of the store, such as "I can't buy it and suffer losses, I can't buy it and be fooled...", and there were no part-time college students stopping you on the side of the road and stuffing a colorful leaflet...

Anyway, no matter whether you care or not, "meet" appears there and appears in the garbage street.

Perhaps there are a few people who are interested who still remember that the ex he "met" seemed to be a cafe.

Try walking in and you will slowly discover that "Meet" is a very strange store.

When you enter the door, the beautiful lady in fine clothes politely said to you "Welcome" and the waiter in standard work clothes to greet you, "Hello, what do you need?", and the shopping guide with a professional smile, eloquently said to you Balabala...

Looking around, there are not many booths in the store that is 50 square meters small, some are single rows and some are opposite rows; there are green plastic vines hanging behind the back of the booth, some are entangled, some are hanging down, and some are spread horizontally. Each booth is a small world.

Of course, there are also some potted green plants scattered in the hall.

Listen to the ears, sometimes soothing, sometimes gentle, sometimes gentle and sometimes smooth music penetrates the heart.

Occasionally, there are three or two big cats, or they sit there alone in a daze, reading a book, or they communicate with each other with a smile. Of course, there is no need for the deep love of the mandarin ducks to lower their eyebrows to express their feelings.

Anyway, everyone is doing their own things.

If you have a little restless heart, you will unconsciously calm down in this peaceful and peaceful atmosphere.

If you want to stay here, you will walk to the counter habitually... You may see a girl who looks like a college student looking down and reading and writing. Without waiting for you to speak, the girl may not even raise her head and just whisper with her fingers holding a pen:

"What do you drink, just do it yourself!"

You looked in the direction of the girl's fingers, and there was a long table with many bottles and jars.

At this time, maybe you will be stunned, no, you will be stunned in confusion.

Without waiting for you to speak, girls will get used to frowning and explain patiently to you:

"Here! There are a lot of things to drink there, including boiled water, carbonated drinks, Coke, Sprite, etc., and orange juice, coffee and milk... You can tell if you go over and take a look. Do whatever you want to drink."

Maybe I will add another sentence: "The cups are washed and disinfected, so please rest assured!"

After saying that, the girl will be busy with her own affairs and will no longer pay attention to you.

Even, girls may think that you disturbed her reading and writing, otherwise why would she talk to you with her frown?

It’s already very polite if you don’t show impatience?

No doubt, this kind of thing has been repeated many times.

If you are puzzled, “You are a waiter, right? Why do you have to do it yourself?”

She will answer you with confidence:

"I am a waiter, but my job is limited to cleaning, cleaning tables and chairs and cleaning cups. Because our store is self-service... Just do whatever you want!"

If you joke, “Didn’t you say that customers are God, you just treat God like this?”

She should respond to you with a mischievous smile:

"Did God not have a long hand? Besides, God is omnipotent, why can't he do it yourself?"

If you complain, "Your store does business like this? Do you have no basic services?"

She should answer you very seriously:

"You don't know me, and I don't know you, why do I need to serve you? Will you serve him when you meet a stranger on the street? Of course, it doesn't count if you help the old lady cross the road!"

If you intimidate: "I want to complain to your boss!"

She should have a slightly funny, disdainful or expectant smile, and touch the corner of her mouth to give you two words "please" or even fear that you won't complain. She reminds you very considerately: "The boss usually stays in the store after 6 o'clock in the evening."

...

What you don’t know is that no matter what kind of questions you have, she can generally provide “routine” standard answers with confidence.

The reason why she is justified is that she has asked the boss about your questions many times, and the boss also answered her like this.

To be more precise, this should be called fearlessness, because the boss has this style.

If you turn around and leave at this time, she will not look at you more, and it is even more impossible to speak out and keep it, because his boss said:

"All stays and stays are guests, so - please!"

She thought about the answer given by the boss for a long time, but couldn't figure it out.

I even once wondered if I had any misunderstanding of the saying "I am always a guest when I stay or stay."

If you don't mind or choose to stay with some curiosity, you will find that as the girl said, there are quite a lot of beverages to choose from.

There are hot and cold boiled water, carbonated drinks like Cola Sprite, orange juice, milk, and even a small freezer next to it, with small buckets of ice cubes to choose from; next to the small freezer, there are instant coffee, bottled coffee powder... Wow, there are actually unground coffee beans and a coffee maker at the corner...

Although there are many types, they are generally common drinks.

Ungrinded coffee beans can only distinguish between high and low levels of quality by those who know the knowledge.

If you return to the counter with your favorite drink, ask the girl:

"How much?"

You would never have thought that girls would use an extremely perfunctory attitude, without even looking at you, and then give you an answer that would be disappointed:

"casual!"

At this time, you will definitely think that the girl didn't hear your question or heard it wrong, so you raise your voice:

"Hey, beauty, how much does it cost?"

The girl's shoulders drooped, and she answered skillfully in a helpless tone like reciting the text silently:

"Hello! Our store is self-service, and all the payment orders are self-service... You can give it or not! If you don't want to give it, just treat it as "meeting" and treat it... If you are willing to give it, it depends on your mood. It's not too small, and it's not too much... Finally, I kindly remind you that this store does not provide change services, and change is not within my work scope!"

Will it refresh your cognition?

Is this the first time I heard that you can even "service by yourself" in such a thing as paying a bill?

At this time, do you also feel that you have any misunderstandings about the word "self-help"?

Is this the first time I heard that it is okay to pay or not after spending?

How much money is paid depends entirely on the customer's mood.

Also, when will the job of seeking change become a service that can be not provided?

......

When you feel like everyone else’s brain is down, girls may kindly add some words:

"By the way, if you want to refill the cup, do it yourself, but please try not to change the cup, and don't disturb me! Oh... By the way, don't disturb others here, don't make noise, don't smoke, please give yourself the rest!"

You came to your senses and, under the flashing eyes of the girl, you didn't care about your whole body, but you had to pretend to be cool and heartbroken and take a hundred-dollar bill... Or you were blushing and squeezing with a coin... Or you thought for a moment and tried to not pay the bill first... Or you were holding another advantage and turned around decisively, and the girl wouldn't say anything.

Perhaps, when you stare at those eyes that seem to be able to talk again, you will also see your clear reflection in it.

......

While you are ignoring your eyes, you choose an acceptable place to sit down.

Next, you will definitely look at this store that makes you feel very strange again, review the scenes that just happened, and then involuntarily start studying the store owner.

I kept guessing the identity of the shop owner in my mind, pieced together the appearance of the shop owner, and then overturned it over and over again.

In the end, I gained nothing except curiosity.

It’s not like gaining nothing. The strange “meeting” can make you enjoy it and let you experience a “willful” sense of 1.

There is no noise and no trouble.

Only after a guest leaves can you see a figure tidying up the tables and chairs wandering back and forth.

When you walk out of the store, you are sure you will look back.

Is it because of the two ordinary light box stores that "Meet" seem to have a little more charm?

Will there be a trace of inexplicable worry in my heart, worried that if this store closes due to poor management, there will be no chance to "meet" again in the future?

Will you touch your pockets again and hesitate?

-------------------------------------

Xiao Yuxuan stepped into the "meeting" in the cold wind, and glanced at his "magic throne" at the first time - as expected, he was occupied by a couple who were loving each other again.

"There are always bad people staring at my position!" Xiao Yuxuan muttered and walked to the counter, seeing the girl immersed in the book and tapping on the counter.

"So what's wrong?" The girl raised her eyes impatiently, sat down and didn't get up, "Oh... the boss is here!"

"Tong Sheyu, are you lame? Am I very old?" Xiao Yuxuan took off his black sweatshirt hat and took off his shoulder bag, saying, "Well, you can get off work. If you don't have a meal, go to eat soon. After dinner, you can go back to the dormitory directly!"

"How many times have I said it... My name is Tong Shu, I understand? Of course you are not old... I will remove the 'old' in the future and call you 'Ban'er'!" Tong Shu gave a strong response.

"There is no difference between Sheyu and Shu? The writing style is the same. Don't care about these details!" Xiao Yuxuan walked over and poured a cup of hot water, then turned back, "This is not the point. The point is that you can get off work now... you can go to dinner... you can go back to school..."

"I've eaten just now... I'm just 7 o'clock now, and I'm off work at 8 o'clock, so I'll go back after work!" Tong Shu looked at the clock on the wall, and it's 5 o'clock now.

"Then just act like I give you the benefits of leaving early... Now, Tong Shu, I will officially notify you now that you can go back early to rest after get off work!"
To be continued...
