The NO.1 Food Stall in the Wasteland novel Chapter 79

Chapter 79: Chapter 79: "Boss Shen, you’re truly a good person.

Bitten by a mutant beast?

Shen Lu told Wang Daguo to pull his sleeve up. She wanted to see the wound.

Wang Daguo did as he was told.

After a night, the wound looked even worse than it had the day before.

Shen Lu could tell at a glance that Wang Daguo’s wound hadn’t been treated at all. It hadn’t even been washed.

Wang Daguo said, "This little injury is nothing. It’ll get better in a few days."

Shen Lu shot him an exasperated glare, handed her tools to Cai Su to hold, then turned and went inside. She returned with medicinal powder, gauze, and clean water to bandage Wang Daguo’s arm.

"If you want to work for me, you can’t be so careless. How are you supposed to do your job if you don’t take care of your body?"

Because she frequently changed Fu Cheng’s bandages, Shen Lu was very skilled at cleaning and dressing wounds. She had Wang Daguo patched up in less than ten minutes.

The powder had pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory properties, and once it was applied, Wang Daguo’s arm felt much better.

His eyes, when he looked at Shen Lu, were filled with gratitude. "Boss Shen, you’re a truly good person."

’Medicine and clean water were so expensive, yet Shen Lu had used them on him without a second thought. Working for a boss like this definitely won’t be bad,’ he thought.

At that moment, Wang Daguo hoped more than anything that he could become one of Shen Lu’s employees.

"Have you made up your mind? The work at my stall isn’t as easy as you might think. Also, I won’t let you take on part-time jobs during work hours. It won’t be as flexible as your previous job."

She had to set some expectations in advance to avoid any unpleasantness later.

"I’ve made up my mind, Boss Shen. The only reason I took on side jobs before was because my work was temporary. If I’m working for you, I promise I won’t take on any part-time work during business hours. You have my word."

"Alright then." Shen Lu nodded. "Welcome to Little Deer Cuisine. You’re our second official employee. When can you start work?"

"I can start today."

"Deal. Just stick with us for now. I’ll tell you what needs to be done."

"Okay." Wang Daguo proactively took the tools from Cai Su’s hands. "I can carry this stuff."

Cai Su didn’t object. It was perfectly normal for a new colleague to want to make a good impression.

On the way, Shen Lu asked the system to confirm whether the junk Wang Daguo collected would count as her own.

[It counts. As long as the Host personally extends an invitation and the other party accepts, they become a member of the shop. As the Host’s subordinate, they can share a portion of the Host’s privileges.]

Shen Lu asked, "Like the permanent 80% cleanliness? What about the one-hundred-percent damage reflection?"

[Because the permanent 80% cleanliness is a store-related privilege, it can be shared by employees. However, the one-hundred-percent damage reflection is the Host’s personal privilege and cannot be shared.]

’So that’s how it works,’ she thought.

With Wang Daguo on board, their junk-collecting efficiency doubled.

Whenever the detector’s red light flashed, no matter how deep a component was buried, Wang Daguo could dig it out.

Shen Lu hit the jackpot. She found a kilogram of gold alone, and the other bits and pieces of precious metals she collected weighed dozens of pounds combined.

Wang Daguo asked curiously, "Boss Shen, what are you collecting all this stuff for?"

Shen Lu placed all the metal into the System Warehouse and said casually, "To trade for ingredients."

"This stuff can be traded for ingredients? Do you trade it at the black market? Since when did the black market start taking metal for ingredients?"

"Ahem!" Cai Su quickly cut off Wang Daguo’s questions with a fake cough.

She couldn’t believe how dense Wang Daguo was being. ’How can he ask a question like that?’ she thought.

That was Shen Lu’s private business.
