Chapter 362
Chapter 362 - Old Love New Lover!
Zhang Xiaolong immediately recognized these two people. They were the same two people he met when he went to the Celestial Mansion Family last time. They were the same two people he met last time.
“So it's you two. I didn't expect you two to be so good at playing instruments!” Zhang Xiaolong exclaimed in admiration.
“Actually, we have only just entered the music industry.” Zhao Xiaotian was a little embarrassed.
“Oh right, thank you for helping us out last time. We still don't know your name.” Han Xiaoya stopped and said.
Zhang Xiaolong waved his hand and said, “Don't be so polite. You already thanked me last time. It's just a small matter, you don't have to take it to heart. My name is Zhang Xiaolong. Even if we know each other now, why are you two so interested in playing here?”
Judging from the level of their performance, even if they were not as good as famous musicians, they were already very good. Who would play on the street for no reason?
“Uh…” Zhao Xiaotian blushed. “I've made you laugh again. We originally wanted to come to Yanjing to realize our music dreams, but after so many days, we haven't even found the most basic job. We can only stand on the street and sell our skills. Otherwise, even eating would be a problem.”
“How is that possible?” Luh Xiaoya was curious. “With your performance just now, I think it's already very good!”
In the past, Zhao Xiaotian and Han Xiaoya would still be happy, but now, they no longer felt anything.
“That is the so-called ‘high and low'.” Zhang Xiaolong immediately revealed the truth, “Ordinary people like us only listen to the music because it sounds nice. But to understand it, we really can't. In most commercialized places, most of the time, the audience's interest and needs are taken into consideration. Most of the time, they won't be interested in this kind of music, and the places that really need this kind of music are very difficult to enter.”
“It's just that our standards are limited. For those true masters, our performances are still very childish.” Zhao Xiaotian quickly said, “It was because we thought too much about it before coming here that we met so many obstacles.”
“Then what do you plan to do in the future?” Zhang Xiaolong asked.
“We can only take one step at a time.” Han Xiaoya suddenly asked again, “Right, Zhang Xiaolong, you are familiar with this place. Do you know where we can find a stable job? Brother Xiaotian and I need a job. Otherwise, we will starve to death before we can realize our dreams.”
Zhang Xiaolong and Luh Xiaoya looked at each other and laughed, “Yes, I know the owner of a classical restaurant. They are looking for two classical musicians. Do you guys want to go?”
When Han Xiaoya and Luh Xiaoya heard this, they smiled awkwardly.
“We have already been to that place, but that boss…” Zhao Xiaotian paused and continued, “To be honest, I think that boss is a little evil. What he wants is not classical music, but beautiful women. He even said that he wants to send Xiaoya to learn dancing, so we left.”
“You must be talking about the Flying Phoenix Great Restaurant across the street, right?” Luh Xiaoya immediately understood what they were talking about.
“Are you sure?” Han Xiaoya asked doubtfully.
“Of course not. We are talking about the Divine Dragon Great Restaurant. Look, it's right across the street from the Flying Phoenix Restaurant.” Luh Xiaoya pointed at the huge and dazzling signboard.
Zhao Xiaotian and the other man looked at the signboard, but they were still a little worried. “Looks like it is even more luxurious than the Flying Phoenix Restaurant. Let's not talk about whether we can go there or not, the person they want must be around the same level as the Flying Phoenix Restaurant. Nowadays, rich people like to watch hot dances. Who would still appreciate classical music like us?”
“Look, you guys were just talking about pursuing your dreams and not giving up. Now, you don't even want to try it? At least, according to what I know, this is the real restaurant that focuses on classical music. It is completely different from the Flying Phoenix Restaurant across the street. If you don't believe me, you can follow me to take a look.” Zhang Xiaolong said.
The two of them hesitated for a moment, but they still decided to follow him to take a look. After playing for a while, they were paid. However, this was not a long-term solution. The two of them could not treat this as their livelihood.
As soon as they entered the Divine Dragon Great Restaurant, the eyes of Zhao Xiaotian and the other man lit up.
Unlike the Flying Phoenix Restaurant, although the waiters there were dressed in ancient clothes, their every move was no different from ordinary restaurants. It was a little out of place.
In the Divine Dragon Great Restaurant, all the waiters and waitresses were very natural and harmonious in this classical environment, making people feel a sense of natural harmony.
“This is a real classical restaurant!” Zhao Xiaotian's eyes flashed with excitement, “But would the requirements here be too high?”
“It won't be too high. As long as the boss feels that you are suitable, I think there shouldn't be any problems.” Luh Xiaoya said slyly.
Looking at her strange eyes, Han Xiaoya immediately realized something. She pointed at Zhang Xiaolong and said, “You are the boss here?”
Zhang Xiaolong did not hide anything, “I guess so. If you don't mind, I would like to officially invite you to join the Divine Dragon Great Restaurant!”
“I don't mind, I don't mind, I don't mind at all!” Han Xiaoya agreed repeatedly. This was exactly what they wanted.
Zhao Xiaotian seemed to be hesitating. Just as he was about to speak, Zhang Xiaolong added, “Don't worry, we will definitely not go the opposite way to the Flying Phoenix Restaurant. If anyone is rude to Xiaoya, I will personally throw him out and never welcome him again. Of course, if he is rude to Xiaotian, that will depend on whether Xiaotian is willing to do so or not!”
These words made Zhao Xiaotian blush in embarrassment. The group of people burst into laughter. This matter was settled in a jesting manner.
From then onwards, there were two men and women playing the zither and the flute in the Divine Dragon Great Restaurant. The melodious ancient music brought people to another world. Combined with the fragrance of the dishes, the entire Divine Dragon Great Restaurant appeared more elegant and mysterious.
Although the restaurant's style had improved, the number of customers did not increase. It was still not as popular as it was before.
Zhang Xiaolong was not in a hurry. On the other hand, Yang Maocheng was the first one to be amused. He pulled the two people who he didn't want over. It was useless. This kind of management was too childish!
“I think we should add some new projects. These rich people, they will get sick of eating the same dish over and over again!” Yang Maocheng thought to himself.
While he was pondering, the two beautiful girls outside were also thinking about where to eat.
“I heard that the dishes in the Flying Phoenix Great Restaurant are especially delicious. I have never tried it before. Now that I have finally returned to Yanjing, I must go and taste the delicacies of the vegetarian dishes!” One of the girls wearing a pair of large sunglasses said happily.
“Why are you so happy? Is it because you want to eat the vegetarian dishes?” The other girl rolled her eyes, ready to dig up the latest gossip at any time. “Quickly tell me the truth. Is there a new lover or a new love? Is that why you are so happy?”
