Suppressing his excitement, Zhuangzi’s ears pricked up even more.

He was getting closer and closer to Gu Yundong and Zheng Gang. In the end, he simply stood behind Zheng Gang and wiped the back of his chair with a cloth. Gu Yundong was speechless. Could you be more obvious?

Zheng Gang did not know whether to laugh or cry. He simply asked on his behalf, “Boss, I’m naturally willing to go to the prefectural city. Then how should we arrange the shop here?”

Gu Yundong tapped her fingers on the table and glanced sideways at Zhuangzi, who had suddenly stopped nervously. She smiled and said, “Uncle Zheng, do you have any suggestions?”

“Actually, although this shop has only been open for less than a year, business has always been very good. There are many customers, and most of them are regular customers. Therefore, it’s better to use a familiar person to be the shopkeeper. Zhuangzi has been here since the shop opened. He’s most familiar with this place and has feelings for it. The customers like him very much. Moreover, he has been learning calligraphy and writing with me these days. He has become more and more mature and steady. He’s the most suitable person.”

Zhuangzi looked at Zheng Gang in a daze. The man’s words moved him so much that his eyes turned red.

He was usually very strict with her and would say that Zhuangzi was too slippery and not steady enough. Zhuangzi did not expect him to have such a high evaluation in front of his boss.

Simply, simply too evil.

“Boss, what do you want me to think about?”

Gu Yundong smiled. “Uncle Zheng is right. After he goes to the prefectural city, this shop indeed needs a skilled person to manage it. You are the most suitable.”

Zhuangzi’s heart, which had just sunk, suddenly came back to life. His eyes lit up.

Gu Yundong said, “You’ll be the shopkeeper for three months.”

“What? You won’t let me be the shopkeeper after three months?” Wasn’t this too short?

“Three months later, I’ll give you two choices. One is to continue staying here as a shopkeeper. The other is to go to the prefectural city and continue working under Uncle Zheng. You can decide what you want.”

Zhuangzi was dumbfounded. This, this, this...

This choice was too difficult. He was too difficult.

“Boss, I have to think about this carefully.” His mind was a little chaotic now. Being a shopkeeper had always been his dream. In the previous fifteen minutes, this was still his ultimate goal.

However, going to the prefectural city did not seem like a bad idea.

On the other hand, if he went there, he still had to be a shop assistant. After being a shopkeeper for three months, he would be demoted to a shop assistant.
