Linger stood behind the black marble bar, wearing a clean and tidy white shirt, calmly wiping the glass, waiting for the first guest of the day and the first guest of his career.
Today is his first day on the job, and he is full of expectations for his career.
There is soothing music playing in the store, the air is filled with the smell of perfume which is not strong, and the atmosphere is comfortable and cozy.
The shop is small in size, but the environment is warm and elegant, and he is very satisfied.
It's just that at this moment he could feel a sharp gaze piercing his body, which came from a table not far from the bar, and the owner of the gaze was a woman wearing a bartender costume.
The woman looked young, probably in her late twenties, with a pretty face and blond hair tied into a ponytail.
She stared at Linger at the bar, flames seemed to burst out of her beautiful sky blue eyes, as if she had some deep hatred with him.
Her name is Elise. Before Ringer successfully applied for the job, she was the person standing at the bar, but now she was downgraded to an apprentice. Naturally, she didn't look good at Ringer.
The bar owner replaced her because there were no customers in the bar.
After drinking the bad wine she blended, Ringer understood the mood of the boss and the previous guests very well.
This woman doesn't know how to mix wine at all and has a bad temper. It can be said that she has nothing but good looks.
No one can keep such a bartender except a satyr.
"Before guests come, you should cross your hands under your navel, press your right hand over your left, and maintain a ready-to-serve attitude, instead of sitting there staring at me like a frog."
Linger's understatement immediately detonated the powder keg.
boom!
"Who do you call a frog?"
Elise slammed the table, stood up, and her chest trembled with her violent movements. This can be regarded as one of her strengths. Ringer swept her chest lightly, thinking in his heart.
"If a guest comes in at this time, you will definitely scare him away." Linge's tone was still calm.
"You, you bastard, it's just that the wine is made better, what's the big deal, sooner or later I will overtake you and drive you out of this shop." Elise was like an angry little lion.
"No, no, no," Ringer shook his head slightly, "It's not enough to be an excellent bartender just by mixing the wine well. A truly excellent bartender will use the wine he made himself as a bridge to reach the guests. heart."
Ringer's gaze swept over Elise lightly.
"With your personality, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do this."
His tone was always unhurried, but it made Elise's face heat up until it flushed red.
The most annoying thing is that she can't refute.
This depressed feeling made her almost go crazy. If she could, she really wanted to hang up the extremely stinky guy in front of her and beat him mercilessly with a whip.
At this time, there was a sound from the door of the bar, and the two looked at the door at the same time.
Are there any guests?
Ringer straightened his collar, cleared his throat, and smiled, ready to offer the most considerate service to his first guest.
Seeing him like this, Elise felt even more upset.
Hmph, you bastard, I don't believe you can keep this posture all the time.
However, it was not a customer who came in, but a woman in loose casual clothes. She was originally the only waiter in the store, but of course there are now two.
"So it's Sister Nilu, I thought it was a guest."
"Haha, it seems that you are looking forward to it, Brother Ringer."
Linge didn't know the exact age of Nilu. She looked very young, but judging from the mature temperament she exuded, she was probably older than himself, so he didn't have any objections to calling her younger brother.
When Nilu changed into her overalls and came out, Ringer couldn't help but shine.
The brown shawl and long hair have a silky texture, and the skin is as fair as milk. The work clothes she wears are also different from Elise's. The white V-neck shirt and a pure black work skirt are neat and capable, but also **** and charming .
Is this also a means to retain guests? Ringer thought to himself.
"Sister Nilu, this guy is looking at you lewdly." Elise, who had been watching Ringer's every move, immediately made a small report.
Linger deeply agreed with this, and nodded silently.
"Okay, let's start the official business!"
Nilu pressed the button on the wall, and the "Open" light on the door lit up.
"Ah, Elise, you forgot to press that, no wonder no guests came." Linge said.
"You really talk a lot, it's not business hours just now." Elise replied back.
Ringer was not interested in arguing with her, so he picked up another cup and wiped it carefully.
Half an hour passed and still no one was there.
Elise stared at Ringer until her eyes were dry, she rubbed her eyes and began to doze off, Nilu went to the lounge.
Just when Ringer was a little discouraged, the wind chimes outside the door finally rang, heralding the arrival of guests.
He cheered up and looked towards the door.
The door was pushed open, and a girl wearing a purple mage robe and a wide wizard hat walked into the bar with her head down. The wide brim of the hat covered her face, making it impossible to see clearly.
I didn't expect the first guest to come to be so special.
Ringer was slightly surprised when he saw the girl's clothes, but he immediately smiled warmly and said, "Welcome to Emerald, what do you want?"
The girl in the wizard hat sat on the high chair in front of the bar, resting her chin on her tender forearm, allowing Ringer to finally see her appearance clearly.
It was a fair and thin face, the eyes were bigger and brighter, and the light purple pupils were full of melancholy, which made people feel pity.
"Do you have any recommendations?" The girl's voice was thin, matching her petite body and delicate face, it was even more charming.
Seeing her immature face, Linge asked, "Is the guest old enough to drink?"
The girl was displeased, she pouted and said, "Stop rambling, serve me some wine."
Elise also stared at him from the side, as if to say, a visitor finally came, do you want to drive her away? And signaled him to drink with his eyes. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
Linge could only smile and said, "If the customer is coming for the first time, I recommend the emerald with the same name as our store."
"Have a drink."
"OK, just a second."
Ringer took out a cocktail glass, put two ice cubes in it, and put it aside.
Then take a mixing glass and a bar spoon, put a few ice cubes in the mixing glass, measure 0.5 ounces of dry vermouth and lemon juice, then add 0.5 ounces of gin, and stir 13 times with a bar spoon until it is pressed. Stop when the fingers of the left hand at the bottom of the wine glass feel cold, and at this time, water vapor overflows from the mouth of the glass.
So far, the step of reconciling the emerald is complete.
He put the ice filter on the glass, poured the mixed wine into the cocktail glass, and gently pushed it to the girl.
"Please use."
During Ringer's mixing, the girl kept looking at him curiously. At this time, her eyes shifted to the glass of crystal clear emerald in front of her. She blinked, raised her glass and drank it down, and then—
Wow cried.
"Woo, I was rejected again."
Faced with the girl's sudden emotional change, Ringer remained calm. For a bartender, such a situation is inevitable.
As a qualified bartender, what you have to do at this time is to listen to the voices of the guests and soothe their emotions.
He said in as gentle a voice as possible:
"Since the other party doesn't like you, why don't you try to change the target?"
"But no one wants me."
"This...how is it possible? You look very cute, my guest."
The girl's flushed face from the alcohol suddenly turned even redder. She lowered her head and whispered:
"You are a real person, why did you suddenly say that you are cute or something..."
