The blood fell on the white paper, leaving a purple mark. The paper trembled, brilliance lingering on it, then turned into a ray of light and plunged into Yao Ziyan's body.
Yao Ziyan was taken aback for a moment. She didn't notice anything unusual in her body, except for a newfound sense of peace within the store. It felt oddly familiar and comforting, like being near family.
"The contract was successfully signed! Congratulations to the host for successfully recruiting the first clerk. The reward has been issued, please check it!"
"Detected that the current position does not match the recommendation."
"Name: Yao Ziyan. Current position: clerk of Origin Mall. Recommended position: Mrs. Boss."
"Do you want to make changes?"
A series of system prompts sounded in Luo Chuan's mind.
System, are you happy now?
"No," Luo Chuan replied in his mind.
"The recommended position does not match the current position. Please reconfirm, host."
"Confirm."
Luo Chuan rolled his eyes inwardly.
"Confirmation is successful. Warm reminder: Yao Ziyan's position can be modified at any time."
Luo Chuan: ...
Seeing Luo Chuan's changing expressions, Yao Ziyan asked cautiously, "Boss, what's the matter?"
Luo Chuan shook his head. "Nothing. Congratulations on becoming a full-time employee of Origin Mall."
Yao Ziyan smiled and nodded. She hadn't felt such joy in a long time. Perhaps becoming a member of this store was indeed a good thing.
Yao Ziyan couldn't help but have such a thought in her heart.
"By the way," Luo Chuan suddenly remembered something, "don't you have a wound on your hand? Go get a bottle of Coke and drink it."
Coke?
Yao Ziyan was confused, not knowing what Coke was.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce it to you." Luo Chuan pointed to the glass shelf inside. "At present, there are three kinds of products in the store: Coke, Spicy Bar, and Ginger Jelly."
"You should have seen Qiongyelu just now. It's what you drank last night."
Last night... the jelly lotion I drank?
Yao Ziyan suddenly remembered seeing Luo Chuan give her a cold jade bottle when she woke up last night.
Did he give me something worth 100,000 spirit crystals?
Even as a Venerable, Yao Ziyan couldn't help feeling distressed.
"But don't worry. As an employee of the store, those are due benefits, and you won't have to pay," Luo Chuan continued.
The previously signed contract clearly stated that when employees are in life-threatening situations, they can use the store's products unconditionally. Store staff can use non-consumable goods for free on weekdays.
As for what non-consumable goods are, Luo Chuan didn't know, given that the store only had three products.
This is similar to Luo Chuan's benefits as the shopkeeper, though with some restrictions.
Luo Chuan continued, "As for Spicy Bars and Coke, you've seen them before when Wei Qingzhu and the others bought them. There is no inventory limit for these two. Their introductions are available under the shelves. You can look at them later."
"As for your salary," Luo Chuan thought for a while and said, "for now, let's make it a pack of Spicy Bars and Coke every day. Of course, board and lodging are free."
Yao Ziyan nodded. Thus, a member of the monster beast royal family successfully became a small clerk in Luo Chuan's store.
Later, Yao Ziyan went to the shelf to learn more about the products.
After a while, she was dumbfounded by the introductions.
Coke, priced at only ten spirit crystals, could instantly restore all non-fatal injuries. Spicy Bars, priced at one hundred spirit crystals, could increase strength temporarily, with effects that could be stacked.
The most terrifying product, Qiongyelu, she had already seen before.
Yao Ziyan believed she was well-informed from her time in Tianlan Continent, but now she felt like a naive country girl seeing the world for the first time.
