"This location is just a few steps away from the store over there. We might as well go and take a look."

He walked a little far without realizing it. It would take quite a while to return to the inn. Anyway, this place was quite close to the location where the photo was taken by the disciple named 'Qingque', so Chen Lin planned to take a look around Changletian Square.

If someone is in trouble, he can help them out by doing them a favor, which can leave a good impression on them, right?

Chen Lin did what he said. He followed the map route in his mind and combined it with the displayed information. Some shops had front and back passages on both streets, which saved him a lot of time.

In less than ten minutes, Chen Lin arrived at Changletian Plaza.

After using psychic power for a while, I found the place where the photo was taken, which was near the teahouse at the front end of the square.

The teahouse has a huge flow of customers, and there are tables and chairs inside and outside for customers to rest or drink tea. There are also parasols set up between the tables and chairs outside to provide shade and shelter from the rain.

There are introductions on both sides of the teahouse, which roughly mean not to miss it if you pass by, XX tea is on sale, seats are free, and even if you don't drink tea and sit here to rest, the store will provide corresponding boiled water or iced drinks to quench your thirst.

Many waiters in front of the teahouse had smiles on their faces, warmly inviting guests who were sweating profusely on the road to come in and rest, and emphasized that seats and drinks were provided free of charge and they would not force them to consume.

It's a very good marketing method, attracting customers at a very low cost. Even if people who don't want to drink tea pass by here and feel tired, they can just sit down and drink free iced drinks, which will trigger the herd mentality and guilt of some customers.

There are a lot of people here, the tea must be delicious.

I've gotten free stuff many times, this time I'll just order a cup of tea to help the store get some money back.

Accurately grasp the user's pain points, deepen the industry's traditional strategies, identify key paths, and use feedback from customers to penetrate the user's mind.

Chen Lin glanced at the prices of various types of tea and thought that as long as one out of a hundred people who came in made a purchase, the teahouse would make money.

This boss understands marketing.

When Chen Lin was looking around as he passed by the teahouse, several young girls in waitress uniforms suddenly had their eyes lit up, and they came forward to invite him like crazy.

"Handsome man, come to our store to rest in the hot weather. Don't worry, the seats are free, and all kinds of drinks are free of charge, except for tea when you need it!"

"Our store has the latest large-scale cooling jade, which makes it very comfortable in this hot and humid weather."

They have relevant standards for soliciting customers every day, and the customers they bring in, regardless of whether they consume or not, are counted towards their performance. The handsome young man they discovered inadvertently has an excellent temperament, exquisite facial features, and a face shape that conforms to the best aesthetics of the Xianzhou people.

Chen Lin's clothes were custom-made by Bronya when he was in Beloberg. After all, he had been wearing modern clothes since he was a child, and he couldn't get used to Beloberg's complicated clothing. Therefore, Chen Lin's clothes were designed by him personally.

Under the beige wide-sleeved jacket is a white low-necked blouse, which not only highlights his slender figure, but also makes his already delicate collarbone half-exposed and exposed. There is no sense of incongruity in his every move, but rather a kind of elegant and easy-going aura which becomes more obvious when he smiles.

If they could pull them into the store and find a seat outside, would they still worry about not attracting enough customers today?

A true human-shaped advertisement!

Chen Lin naturally didn't think about these tricks, but the girls crowded around him were so enthusiastic that he felt a little embarrassed to refuse.

I thought that at worst I could just sit inside and send a text message to the Taibusi disciple who came to pick me up, telling him not to take the detour to the inn but to just come to the teahouse to find him.

Chen Lin was half pushed and half shoved to sit at a table outside the teahouse. The waitress who brought him in was a fox girl. She brought him a drink and a pot of tea as quickly as possible.

"This is a gift from the boss to you, sir. He also told me that we won't charge you for tea in the future. Just sit here."

"?"

Good man, you think I’m a poster boy, right?

I have to say that this teahouse knows how to behave and the owner knows how to do business.

He knows best what he looks like. He could only barely score 85 points to begin with. After the origin transformation, his temperament and appearance have undergone qualitative changes. Scoring 98 points is a bit modest.

Because the traits that Origin had added to him included something called 'Charm Extraordinary MAX', it could be said that Chen Lin met the aesthetic standards of any life form, and it was easy for people to have a very good first impression just by looking at him, not to mention the other traits that added to his temperament and appearance, including the 'Very Delicious' that caused Xing to bite him at every turn...

In short, the feeling of getting something for free is really not good.

"I understand. Thank your boss for me." Chen Lin said with a smile.

thump!

thump!

thump! !

The fox girl blushed, and she seemed to be able to hear her own violent heartbeat. She said in a mosquito-like voice:

"No...no way...it's the boss and we who should thank you."

After saying that, she poured the tea, covered her face and trotted away.

Suddenly, there was a sign-boy sitting outside, and the flow of customers to the teahouse increased a lot. The waiters who were inviting customers from a distance would point to Chen Lin's location to the female customers every time, and then these female customers would choose to enter the store without hesitation.

Chen Lin skillfully declined the dozen or so people who came to chat with him, and observed his surroundings while drinking tea.

There are only a few people drinking tea in the teahouse. Most of them come in to rest and have a glass of water to quench their thirst. Occasionally, you can see some mature-looking people walking out of the upper floor of the teahouse, who seem to be discussing business. Of course, there are also friends who buy some snacks and gather here to chat.

However, he noticed that in addition to these, there were quite a few people doing other activities in the teahouse!

People gathered in groups of three or four around a table. In the middle of the table was a pile of thick square blocks. There were many people around Chen Lin playing with these things. He took a quick look and was greatly shocked.

Isn't this mahjong? ! !

The national entertainment activity in my hometown can be traced back to thousands of years ago, and the prototype was called "Boxi".

It was not until the Tang Dynasty that modern mahjong began to take shape.

Chen Lin's mother's hometown is in Sichuan. She would return to Sichuan every Chinese New Year. Chen Lin was influenced by her and naturally knew how to play this thing.

Especially when he was in college, a game called "Mahjong Soul" became popular on the Internet. The main rules were still Riichi Mahjong. Chen Lin played it a lot at that time. He even participated in amateur competitions and won the top three results, which gave him special effects and other miscellaneous things in the game.

However, what Chen Lin valued most was the trophy coated with gold powder.

After all, it's a trophy, right?

How come the fairy boat also has this thing?

There were three young ladies in scantily clad clothes playing mahjong at the next table. When they saw Chen Lin watching them play, they introduced them to him.

This thing is called 'Emperor Yuan Qiong Yu' in Xianzhou. It is a new game that has exploded in recent years. It has become popular all over Xianzhou at an incredible speed in a very short period of time. Nowadays, every household will carry a set of Emperor Yuan Qiong Yu when traveling to kill time with friends.

The gameplay was roughly the same as the Sichuan Mahjong and Li Mahjong that he was familiar with, with only a few details different. After watching them play a few rounds, Chen Lin basically mastered the gameplay. The other party also enthusiastically introduced all the card types to him.

Now the more Chen Lin looks at the Immortal Boat, the more it looks like his home planet...

Could there really be some blood relationship?

Seeing that the time was almost up, Chen Lin thought that the other party should be finishing the matter soon, so he was about to send a text message to the disciple named "Qingque" to inform him of his location, but he heard the crisp voice of a girl not far away.

"Open the gang! On the ridge! I drew all the same color! Hu Li~"

"Ah? Qingque, why did you lose again? It's not even ten rounds yet!"

Greenbird?!

Chen Lin was startled, put down his phone and turned to look in the direction of the sound.

Chapter 132 What a coincidence! You live there too.

There are streams of water drilled around the teahouse. Although there is no hole to make the water flow, the water here is clear and transparent. The lotus leaves and blooming petals floating on the water surface add a bit of color to the place.

"Ah? Qingque, why did you lose again? It's not even ten rounds yet!"

Chen Lin put down his phone and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see four people sitting neatly in a corner not far away, one man and three women, which seemed to be a bit unbalanced between yin and yang.

The person who spoke was a man in a pure white gown. He touched his head in distress and gave all the remaining green dumplings in a box on the table to the girl on his right.

There were some snacks in front of the four people, and many people who played Diyuan Qiongyu seemed to have such small things to eat or drink in front of them. Gambling big money would violate the rules, and just playing to win or lose would lack some fun. Using cheap snacks as bets, if you win you can have snacks, and if you lose it can also add to the fun, which is harmless.

When a few people saw him start to pack up his things, they asked in confusion, "Are you not going to play anymore?"

The man smiled bitterly and said, "No more playing, no more playing. The academy will open in half an hour. I still have two classes in the afternoon. I haven't had time to correct the students' homework yet."

It seems that he is a teacher hired by a certain academy, and he came here to play cards with others during his break.

A hot woman sitting next to him joked, "Don't write the Emperor Yuan Qiong Yu card type on students' homework."

"Then I can wait to change jobs."

"Hahahaha!"

A few people laughed and jokingly sent the man away. Di Yuan Qiong Yu could be with four, three, or two people.

The party would never be unable to continue because of someone's sudden departure, but the older sister-like woman still walked around and politely asked if anyone wanted to join.

The two of them started chatting during this time.

"Qingque, shouldn't you be at work at this time? How come you have time to come here to play cards?" The woman on the other side asked, "You haven't been fired, have you?"

On her right was a petite girl, her height was quite impressive, estimated to be about 1.5 meters. Her little face was as delicate as a jade sculpture and at first glance you might think she was some kind of child, but in fact she had been a corporate slave who had been working for many years.

"I'm just working now." Qingque shrugged, his face bitter, and complained trivially: "I was originally reading the newly bought miscellaneous books in the library, but unexpectedly I was caught by the Grand Master, and he insisted that I make up for my mistake by going out to do business..."

"Then why did you come to play cards with us? Aren't you afraid of being criticized when you go back?"

"Hey! You don't understand. Although the old lady Taibu was angry, she just asked me to pick up a customer. I begged her for a long time before she said that it would be fine as long as I finished it before leaving get off work."

Qingque chuckled and said, "Since it is said to be finished before the end of get off work, why should I finish it early and then go back to do other work?"

"It's really a miracle that you didn't get fired..." the woman who asked the question muttered.

"Hey, we have to grasp the scale for everything. If it's three feet long and one inch short, then we should take the middle path. If we keep repeating, we can find the lowest limit." Qingque laughed and said, "Work does not create value for employees. Only slacking off during work can create value for employees."

“You really know it clearly.”

"Otherwise, if you finish a day's work in a matter of minutes, there will be more work the next day, and your salary won't increase, so why work so hard?"

The sticky little dumpling was played around in Qingque's mouth. The sweet taste made her half-close her eyes and sighed, "That friend just now actually bought this dumpling from Qiu Baoxuan. It's great to have money."

"The income of a teacher in the academy is indeed quite high. Do you want to be a teacher, Qingque?"

"No, the teacher has a lot of chores to do, and working overtime is commonplace. The key is that he has to deal with students in the school and leaders in the academy. He also has to correct homework after work. It's tiring just to hear that."

Qingque shook his head vigorously and concluded: "Why not get a leisurely job and play cards in my spare time..."

Before he could finish his words, the hot woman who had just gone out for a date came back carrying two large paper bags.

"I found a new friend. Not only is he a handsome guy, he also bought several desserts from Qiu Baoxuan next door to place bets on winning or losing!"

"Sister Qing, you're coming... Wow! This is Qiu Baoxuan's popular jam roll!"

The sharp-eyed card players discovered that the bag contained the hot-selling dessert recently launched by Changletian Dessert Shop. With its wonderful sweet and sour ratio and soft cake body, it has become a must-try dessert in the eyes of many people when visiting Xianzhou.

The only thing is that the price is relatively expensive. Most people probably only buy a small piece to satisfy their cravings once a month, so such a large portion like the one in the bag would really surprise them.

"Originally I said I would just buy some cookies or something, but this handsome guy said there were too many people lining up in the store, so he asked me to go with him and buy these."

"It doesn't matter, as long as the food is delicious. Now that we're here, we can't just stand in line and let everyone wait."

It was only then that everyone noticed that there was a tall young man following her. His gentle smile and generous gesture inexplicably gave them a good first impression.

Those women who were playing cards with two or three people were particularly regretful, especially those who Chen Lin had been watching at their table before. Why did they forget to invite the handsome guy to come and play with them?

Maybe we can play cards together during the day and at night...

In short, many naked eyes were directed at Chen Lin as he sat down in his seat, as if they wanted to eat him.

Qingque still had half a dumpling in its mouth, but its eyes were fixed on the paper bag on the tray beside it, forming a sharp contrast with the focus of others.

"I've just arrived at Xianzhou and have never played before. Please forgive me if I made any mistakes." Chen Lin suddenly spoke.

Qingque then retracted his gaze from the paper bag and exclaimed "Huh".

"But I heard that you speak Xianzhou dialect very fluently, without any accent at all."

The other two people at the table also nodded like chicks pecking at rice.

"Maybe I have a good talent for languages. I couldn't speak fluently when I first came here, but after talking to more people, I found the knack... I'm ready." Chen Lin took a jam roll out of the box and put it on the table.

"Since we are new friends, let's talk about our betting odds." The hot woman who brought Chen Lin here said: "The odds for the Emperor Yuan Qiong Yu card type are one times the seabed, and five times for all the same suits..."

After she finished speaking, Chen Lin nodded seriously: "I remember it."

"Let's start then, what's your name?"

"Just call me Xiao Chen, or Lao Chen."

"Xiao Chen, right? This is Qingque Taibu Sisui, you can ask her for divination. This is Yu'er, I opened a clothing store nearby, you can just call me Sister Qing, I usually make some small handicrafts to make a living."

During the card sorting and drawing stages, Qingque's eyes were always attracted by the box of delicious-looking jam rolls. Her bet was a box of bread rolls, while the other two's bets were small snacks that could be bought from the nearby supermarket.

She thought it was okay to win some Qingtuan or something, after all, the income of the academy teacher was there, so she didn't feel any burden. But this friend who had never even played cards before bought such expensive bets, and she always felt a little guilty if she won.

'Forget it, I'll just play two or three games and let one go, that'll be fair to this new friend.'

Qingque thought to himself.

In fact, the other two people had similar ideas. They were all new players who played Diyuan Qiongyu. There were many new players who didn't know how to play cards, and those tourists were unwilling to calm down and learn. It was hard to get fresh blood, and they couldn't let them lose too badly.
