Living in Tokyo, starting with a lifestyle-related job

"I've always been very careful about this aspect."

Yui Nagasawa remarked:

"Hey, hey, hey, this isn't about being careful or not, is it?"

"Although I don't know the specifics of your piano playing, I think even a slight decrease in finger dexterity would have a huge impact on your career, right?"

Watanabe Hina smiled helplessly:

"I know quite a few people who study piano and do it part-time, so it's not as exaggerated as you guys are saying."

Shiro Shiro shook his head and refused:

"Although I don't understand the ins and outs of playing the piano, I know that you are very busy, senior."

"Besides, you have a competition in a few days, so don't bother with all that."

Watanabe Hina pouted, looking somewhat angry:

"Kamishiro-kun, I can do it!"

"no!"

"Why can't it be done?"

"No means no!"

A flicker of emotion crossed Mizuno Maki's usually cool face. Finally, unable to contain herself any longer, she volunteered:

"or."

"How about I do it!"

Chapter 135 Please, you little rich girl, stop buying! The store is luxurious enough!

"How about... how about I do it?"

The three people present were somewhat stunned when they heard Mizuno Maki's self-recommendation.

Watanabe Hina asked in confusion:

"I remember you already had a part-time job at Ichiran Ramen, Mizuno-san?"

"The part-time job here might not be as stable as the one at Ichiran Ramen, Mr. Kamishiro."

"So, Mizuno-senpai, you'd better think it over carefully."

Maki Mizuno remained silent.

She knew that Watanabe-senpai was right.

She already had a job, but still chose to come here.

It feels quite strange.

Yui Nagasawa didn't care who came; as long as someone came, that was fine.

After all, she had been coming to this coffee shop for several days.

these days.

There were practically no customers.

Yesterday, apart from my acquaintances, only one customer came to the shop.

Although it's unusual for the store to be open today, only four people came.

But that might just be a flash in the pan.

After all, Aibe Shino is a fairly well-known female host; it would be strange if she couldn't attract all four of them.

Yui Nagasawa suggested:

"Isn't this nice?"

"Not only is Mizuno-san an acquaintance of Kamishiro-kun, but she's also so beautiful. She would be perfect as a mascot."

"And since I have experience in the food and beverage industry, I can get started more quickly."

"Although it's true that the profit situation here is not very good right now."

"But I really believe that Kamishiro-kun will be able to turn things around."

"Besides, what difference does it make who you hire for the part-time job?"

"This place is the most suitable now, wouldn't it be strange to go out and look for someone else?"

Kamidai Bai Feng thought carefully.

He used to work with Maki Mizuno.

I know this girl is indeed quite hardworking.

She is indeed quite good-looking.

Otherwise, so many boys wouldn't call her their "white moonlight."

According to Yui Nagasawa, she would be a great choice as a mascot.

He then nodded:

"That's exactly what's happening."

"I think it's pretty good too, Mizuno-san."

Maki Mizuno's eyes held a hint of joy.

She hadn't expected that Kamishiro-kun would agree.

wrong!

Why should I be happy?

Seeing that Shiro Kaede looked completely fooled, Nagasawa Yui was overjoyed:

"That's it!"

"Then it's happily decided!"

Shiro Kaede interrupted Nagasawa Yui:

"and many more."

"I haven't discussed salary with Mizuno-san yet."

“That makes sense.” Nagasawa Yui slapped her forehead, then turned to Mizuno Maki and asked, “Mizuno-senpai, how much was your hourly wage for your part-time job again?”

Maki Mizuno explained:

"One thousand yen."

Shiro Shiro was stunned:

"Eh."

Didn't the supervisor give you a raise?

Maki Mizuno remained silent again, neither denying nor responding:

"The price has increased by 200 yen, but that only started today."

Yui Nagasawa analyzed:

"That means Mizuno-senpai's current hourly wage is 1200 yen."

"If we're going to poach you from Ichiran Ramen, the salary and benefits must be better than at Ichiran Ramen, right?"

"What do you think, Kamishiro-kun?"

Kamishiro Shirokaze nodded:

"Yes, if that's the case, it would indeed be better not to come at all."

"After all, Ichiran Ramen is much more stable."

"Then 1300 yen per hour, shall we?"

"What do you think, Mizuno-san?"

Maki Mizuno blinked, not expecting her hourly wage to suddenly jump from 1,000 yen to 1,300 yen.

It's worth noting that jobs with this wage are actually quite hard to find these days.

The hourly wage for part-time jobs for high school students is generally only around 800-1200 yen.

1300 is already quite good.

Unable to think of a reason to refuse, she immediately nodded and said:

"Yeah, I can!"

Yui Nagasawa chuckled.

When Kamishiro is at school, he can only operate for a maximum of 5 hours a day.

Now I have an extra part-time job.

That means it will cost about 6500 yen more per day.

Given his meager daily income of 24,000 yen.

Rounding it off, it's a complete loss!

Meanwhile, Watanabe Hina, standing to the side, was somewhat helpless as Kamishiro-kun chose Mizuno-san instead of her.

But he also knew that even if Kamishiro-kun didn't ask Mizuno-san for help, he would find other part-time jobs to work.

All things considered, Mizuno-san's conditions are indeed very good.

It would be good to have her come.

Most importantly, Watanabe Hina had heard Mizuno Maki say that she didn't want to date in high school, and she had also seen her reject some good-looking boys.

Therefore, Hina Watanabe was quite confident in Maki Mizuno.
