Chapter 119 Falling into the Coffin
"Oh? Then tell me, I won't accept anything less."
Qiu Shounian hesitated for a moment, but agreed to Qin Mu.
Qin Mu walked around the back of the counter and took a look. Only after he learned the specific height of the counter did he have the answer in his mind.
"White shops have always had a tradition of high counters. There is only one answer."
"But the old shopkeeper's counter is higher than other white clothing stores. It seems there are two reasons."
"First, you are old and can no longer straighten your body. In order to communicate with customers normally, you have straightened your body."
"The second is to be condescending, so that you can see clearly whether the person entering the door is a human or a ghost."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Shounian's eyes changed instantly, and he silently gave Qin Mu a perfect score.
Just because Qin Mu believes that there are ghosts in this world, it proves that they are on the same road.
If someone walked into his shop and planned to work as a clerk or a seller just to make ends meet, he wouldn't want to do it.
"Yes, it seems you are experienced." Qiu Shounian agreed.
Kui Dazhuang looked confused: "Is there such a statement? Why haven't I heard of it in the sect?"
"That means you are not down to earth." Qin Mu complained.
"Okay, have we passed the test now?"
Kui Dazhuang shouted to the old man with his hands on his hips.
"He can, but you can't." Qiu Shounian pointed at him and shook his head.
"Old man, you are targeting me!"
Kui Dazhuang was not convinced.
"With your temper, something will happen sooner or later! It doesn't matter if my store is damaged, I'm just afraid you won't be able to do it."
"White work is a business that requires the best service quality, and I won't allow any mistakes."
Qiu Shounian scolded.
"If you don't want me here, I'll have my own place. If you want me to do it, I don't want to do it yet!"
After saying that, Kui Dazhuang rushed out of the door, but Qin Mu couldn't stop him.
"Do you still have any questions? No problem, come and report tomorrow."
Qiu Shounian asked Qin Mu.
Qin Mu asked in a low voice: "I don't know about the salary?"
"You still want a salary as an apprentice? Now I'm teaching you my skills, which is equivalent to putting money in your pocket." Qiu Shounian said angrily.
"Ah? Forget it then. I can hardly afford to eat anymore. Old shopkeeper, I'd better go to another place and check it out."
Once he heard that the other party wanted to have sex for nothing, Qin Mu didn't want to do it no matter how interested he was.
What's more, he already knows the art of physiognomy, what else can this old man teach him?
Seeing Qin Mu about to leave, Qiu Shounian shouted:
"The salary is 1,500 yuan, including a lunch, but no housing! If you become a regular employee, your salary will increase."
This was not the condition Qiu Shounian wanted to give, but when he looked at Qin Mu, he always felt that the other party had some strength.
Moreover, he had been recruiting for two months and couldn't wait any longer.
Qin Mu couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and he immediately turned around with a smile.
Although one thousand and fifty is a bit less, he has not been staying in the capital for a long time, so it would be good to have something to eat.
"That's easy to say, hey, then I'll come to work tomorrow?" He smiled.
"Nine to five, and you have to leave here before six o'clock."
Qiu Shounian said mysteriously.
Qin Mu nodded, as if he knew why.
"By the way, what do you call the old shopkeeper?"
"My surname is Qiu." Qiu Shounian didn't intend to say his full name.
"Okay, Shopkeeper Qiu, see you tomorrow!"
After walking out of Shop No. 44, Qin Mu looked around but couldn't see Kui Dazhuang.
"Is this Diaomao really going home?"
He quickly rejected the idea. After all, the guy was broke, so how could he be willing to pay for a ride on his own?
But Kui Dazhuang was actually still on Funeral Street. He found a coffin shop and found a recruitment notice posted at the door.
"Shall I go? With a monthly salary of five thousand and food included, that old man will definitely not be so generous."
After thinking about it, Kui Dazhuang planned to go in and apply for the job, but found that it was noisy inside, as if he had encountered some trouble.
When he entered, he was stunned to see that a funeral was being held inside.
A group of people were surrounding the deceased wearing linen and mourning, and Nan Mo was walking beside him, knocking on wooden fish and chanting sutras for salvation.
"Damn it, isn't this a coffin shop? Why is the business scope so wide?"
When he got closer, he saw a group of people gathered around a brand-new wooden coffin, with the deceased lying inside the coffin.
I saw them working together to lift the coffin lid, but they couldn't get it together. The four strong men could only barely lift the coffin two inches off the ground.
Seeing this, Kui Dazhuang immediately snickered, thinking that if these people couldn't even lift the lid, how could they take the entire coffin away with everyone later?
However, he was also curious about what kind of material the coffin was made of, so it was so heavy.
But this was none of his business. He shouted as he entered the door:
"Who's in charge?"
His voice was enough to stop the sobbing family members.
The shop owner trotted over wiping his sweat and said with a wry smile: "Brother, you are attending a funeral. Do you want to order a birthday plate?"
"Bah, what a bad luck. Do I need that thing? I'm here to apply for a job."
Upon hearing that he was here to apply for a job, the store owner immediately changed his expression, put his hands on his hips and said:
"The applicants just go aside and wait. Can't you see the situation clearly?"
As he spoke, the shop owner twisted his facial features again and started crying in response to the family members. Kui Dazhuang pulled him back again.
This pull almost dislocated the man's neck.
"Can't the coffin be lifted?" he asked.
"Nonsense, this family paid a lot of money to order a coffin made of black iron wood. It is several times heavier than ordinary coffins. It took four people a long time to carry it."
Kui Dazhuang suddenly realized that this black ironwood was the densest and heaviest wood in nature. No wonder the group of people couldn't lift it.
It seemed that this family must be a wealthy and powerful family, so he couldn't help but want to show off in front of others.
"Okay, boss, if I can lift this coffin, you can hire me, what do you think?"
"Okay! If you can lift it up, you can go to work tomorrow!"
The boss said cheerfully, after all, he was already exhausted.
If the coffin cannot be carried at the funeral site, the whole funeral street will laugh at him if word of this bad news spreads.
After hearing the other party's promise, Kui Dazhuang rolled up his sleeves and strode forward.
He is famous for being as strong as an ox, and Qin Mu has already learned this.
You must know that in the Yuan Qing Sect, martial arts training was the first lesson, and then came physiognomy.
Therefore, Kui Dazhuang's skill makes it difficult for Qin Mu to resist.
I saw him walking towards the coffin, reaching the bottom with one hand, and lifting it up a little, he instantly knew the weight of the coffin.
He said dismissively: "Is this the weight? I can lift it alone."
As soon as he finished speaking, Kui stood astride the coffin, lifting his hands up like a king lifting a cauldron.
He easily lifted the coffin lid, which weighed nearly a thousand kilograms, and everyone was stunned.
Some people have even forgotten their sorrow and clapped their hands and praised Kui Dazhuang.
The anxious mood of the family members has also been relieved.
"Dad, please go all the way!"
"Thankfully, someone came to help me today. Your father's spirit in heaven must be very gratifying."
"Finally I can rest in peace. I thank you on behalf of the deceased!"
Everyone was moved.
After hearing this, Kui Dazhuang felt extremely proud, and turned around to cover the coffin.
By then he will be able to earn five thousand a month and even get a big red envelope from his relatives.
Just when he was confident, he was about to close the coffin, but he was too strong and the coffin lid did not align with the groove when he lowered it.
The coffin lid instantly lost weight and slid to the other side. The huge weight also pushed the coffin over, and the deceased immediately rolled out of the coffin.
"Fuck..."
