"For regular customers, just maintain your standard service attitude."
Be polite, natural, and clear; don't be too soft.
Bai listened very attentively.
Although he didn't quite understand why, there must be a reason why Boss Zhang Yu said that.
So he immediately lowered his head and agreed.
"Yes."
"I've got it."
Zhang Yu nodded in satisfaction.
"Also, you're currently in your probationary period."
Bai immediately tensed up.
"Probation period?"
"One month."
Zhang Yu held up one finger.
"You'll be in charge of greeting guests for the next month."
"If you perform well, you'll be officially hired."
"At that time, you will be the official gold-medal greeter of the Undead Tavern."
Upon hearing the word "formal," Bai's expression immediately became much more serious.
After he arrived here, what he feared most was not the hardship of the work.
It's not that I'm useless, but that I'm incompetent.
If I can stay at the Undead Tavern, and continue to be in the same place as Mr. Zabuza,
He was willing to try his best to adapt to everything here so that he could stop living a life of fleeing and fighting.
Even though this outfit made him feel shy.
Even though greeting guests was something more unfamiliar to him than fighting.
Bai raised her head, her voice soft yet firm.
" Boss Zhang Yu, I will definitely work hard."
"I won't let you down."
Zhang Yu smiled.
"Very good."
"Then let's open for business."
The tavern doors opened.
Bai stood at the door.
A clean school uniform, a delicate and gentle face, a slightly reserved yet trying effortlessly to maintain a natural smile.
The effects were immediately apparent at this stop.
The few Konoha who were passing by the entrance of the Undead Tavern only glanced at the sign out of habit.
As soon as their gaze fell on Bai, their steps slowed down.
A middle-aged woman couldn't help but whisper, "When did this shop get such a pretty greeter?"
The young man next to him was also stunned for a moment.
"How come I've never seen this before?"
Bai heard someone approaching and immediately lowered his head slightly, as Zhang Yu had instructed.
Welcome to the Undead Tavern.
The voice wasn't too soft.
But its gentle and soothing tone is pleasant to listen to.
Several people who were originally just passing by looked at each other and then actually pushed open the door and went into the store.
"Then let's go in and take a look."
"It's hot outside, let's have some drinks."
I've heard this place has good pastries.
Behind the bar, Zhang Yu's eyes lit up.
It's so effective!
There used to be a freak standing at the entrance of the Undead Tavern, and passersby would rather take a detour.
Now that the store is white, passersby are actually voluntarily entering.
This is the beauty economy.
Hashirama leaned over the bar, his face filled with shock.
"Boss, your arrangement is brilliant."
"Just stand at the door, and the guests will come in on their own."
Tobirama flipped through the account books, his tone calm.
"Judging from the changes in passenger flow, the greeting position is indeed necessary."
Izuna came out of the kitchen carrying some snacks and glanced at the doorway.
"Haku is far more suitable than Zabuza."
In the kitchen, Zabuza happened to be passing by carrying a basin of washed vegetables when his face darkened.
"I heard you."
Ban snorted coldly.
So what if you hear it?
"If we make you stand at the door, customers will just think this shop is going to kill someone."
Zabuza's forehead twitched, but he ultimately held back.
He is now beginning to understand the rules of survival in the Undead Tavern.
If you can avoid Madara Uchiha, then don't argue with him.
Bai remained diligently guarding the door.
He greeted each guest according to Zhang Yu's instructions.
Some people glanced at him curiously, but he only smiled politely.
When someone asked what was available in the shop, he would introduce it according to a simple menu that Tobirama had hastily prepared.
After the customers entered the shop, Hashirama was in charge of greeting them, Izuna was in charge of serving them sweets.
For the first time, the tavern truly looked like it was open for business.
Zhang Yu stood behind the bar, watching table after table of customers sit down, feeling incredibly happy.
Although these ordinary customers do not spend much.
But its popularity soared.
Once your fame spreads, you'll have more opportunities to make money.
Even after closing time in the evening, Bai was still standing at the door, carefully seeing off the last customer.
Welcome back next time.
The guest smiled and waved.
"I'll come again next time."
Bai breathed a sigh of relief after the door closed.
He stood for a long time today.
I'm not too tired.
But I remained tense inside.
Zhang Yu walked over and patted him on the shoulder.
"Good performance."
The Byakugan brightened slightly.
"Really?"
"Real."
Zhang Yu smiled and said, "First day of my probation period, and I passed."
Bai immediately lowered his head.
"Thank you, Boss Zhang Yu."
After closing time, Tobirama quickly organized the account books.
He stood by the bar, his tone calm.
Today's turnover: 20,000 taels.
Upon Hashirama, Hashirama immediately became delighted.
"Not bad!"
"There were quite a few regular guests today."
Izuna nodded as well.
"We sold a lot of snacks."
Zabuza came out of the kitchen wiping his hands, and his expression showed some surprise when he heard the number.
In the past, his missions often involved life-or-death battles.
Unexpectedly, a tavern could earn 20,000 taels of silver in a single day of normal operation.
But Zhang Yu wasn't entirely satisfied.
"Twenty thousand taels..."
He touched his chin.
For a typical small shop, this number is certainly good.
But the Undead Tavern is no ordinary little shop.
In the previous deal Hiruzen Sarutobi, the top-grade Erguotou alone sold for 7.2 million taels.
In comparison, today's total sales revenue is pitifully low.
The flow of people has picked up.
However, the average order value is too low.
Relying solely on ordinary customers to drink beverages and eat snacks will take too long to make a fortune.
Zhang Yu quickly came up with a new idea.
Regular drinks are sold as usual to maintain customer traffic.
The real money is made from scarce alcoholic beverages.
They package a few special wines as rare, out-of-print items and auction them off periodically.
There are quite a few wealthy people in Konoha.
Ninja clans, Jonin, businessmen, the Hokage's office—they can all be potential customers.
Simply by advertising the word "scarcity," prices can be driven up.
Zhang Yu thought about it more and more and it seemed feasible.
Selling them one bottle at a time is too slow.
"We should start holding auctions in the future."
The highest bidder wins.
Hashirama was taken aback.
"Boss, you've come up with another new way to make money?"
Zhang Yu smiled.
"It's still just an idea."
"We'll do it when the time is right."
Tobirama, however, had already raised his head.
"If we want to hold an auction, we need to establish the rules in advance."
"To prevent customers from defaulting on payments and disrupting order, it's also important to clearly define the alcoholic beverage categories."
Zhang Yu looked at Tobirama, extremely satisfied.
"As expected of you."
"I'll leave the planning for this to you from now on."
Tobirama nodded.
"Can."
Just then, a system notification popped up in front of Zhang Yu's eyes.
[bite!]
[Task complete.]
[Task Name: Tavern Specialty Waiter]
[Task Requirements: Dress Bai in a school uniform and have her work as a waitress at the Undead Tavern.]
[Task rewards are being distributed --]
[Congratulations, host, you have received 10,000 gold coins.]
Zhang Yu's eyes lit up instantly.
The money has arrived!
Bai made a killing at this one stop today.
Just moments ago, Zhang Yu felt that 20,000 taels of revenue wasn't enough, but now that the system reward had arrived, his mood immediately improved.
