No matter what? Life still had to go on, but it was just a matter of whether it went well or not. When people were in trouble, they would even stuff their teeth when they drank cold water. For example, Shao Wei's current customer came with a friend. This time, he should be the one paying for the bath. Then, the friend of the other customer who was lying on Brother Wang's bath bed would make mud, salt, and milk. He wanted everything. Shao Wei's customer was interesting. He didn't want oil, salt, or chicken feathers.
"Look at the customer. You have so much oil on you. How good would it be if you were clean and tight!”Brother Wang. He couldn't stand it anymore, so he helped Shao Wei persuade him to live.
This was related to a professional term called persuasion. What was persuasion? When two or more customers got on the bath bed together, some customers could get the service from their hometown, while others couldn't. They might need the help of their colleagues at this time. Perhaps they could make more money by saying a few words. Of course, there were many people who couldn't be helped, but Shao Wei had been in this industry for many years. The kind of person he was most afraid of was when the weather was hot and his body was covered in sweat and oil, and then he didn't take a bath at all. Just let him rub it, and he didn't even want to remove the mud and oil. This was the worst. The skin on his body was as sticky as dead pig skin. It was so greasy that it was difficult to rub it. I don't want anything. Just rub it clean for me. Aiya, those things are all scammers. It's not like I haven't used them before. No, can you rub them? If you can't do it, get someone else to do it.
It was the same as what was said above. Rice breeds a hundred kinds of people. Generally, for those who couldn't be scrubbed clean, they would choose the good one in the end. This was because not only would they lose their skills, but they would also be tired to death. In the end, they would also be complained about. There was a very unfriendly rule in this industry that was very unfriendly to the scrubbers. Of course, it was also a small whip that spurred them to be meticulous. Whenever a customer complained about it in a big shop, the shop would directly let you pay the bill for the customer regardless of the reason. Moreover, there was a fine. This was the most fatal thing because no one could guarantee their interests since the beginning of the industry. Bathing was a job that required hard work, great effort, and a meticulous conscience. However, many times, they would encounter customers who were unhappy and used them as a punching bag. Therefore, even if there were many times when people said that the job of a bather was good, that they could not be affected by the wind or rain, and that they could earn a lot of money in a month, I was envious! The scrub master wanted to tell them,"You'll know when you come and do it. If there's another business, who would want to do it? And to be honest, every scrub worker had a story behind them!”
"I don't want anything. There's no need to say anything. Hurry up and rub it. In a while, the two of us still have to go over there to drink!”As expected, the customer was a little impatient.
"Alright!" Even though he was very unhappy, Shao Wei still agreed happily. Then, he started to rub him."Aiya, big brother, you have a lot of dust on you. How long has it been since you last rubbed?”
"It's only been a few days. I went up the mountain and stayed on the mountain for more than half a month. Aiya, my body is full of fistulas (giving off an unpleasant smell).。。”
"Then you must have earned a lot this time, right?"
"What's there to earn? I have some cows at home. Aiya, my child is sick, and the workers I hired have something to do. Otherwise, I wouldn't have gone up.”
"Aiya, it's good, it's good! "Slow down your arm, slow down, slow down. Aiya, this arm hurts a little ~" When she lifted the customer's arm horizontally, the customer's voice changed. He was grimacing.
"Aiyo, brother, is this your scapularized shoulder? Alright, how about this angle? Was it less painful? But you're in a worst-hit area. There's a lot of dust, and I'm afraid I can't clean it up ~"
" It's fine. I saw how hard you tried. You couldn't clean it off. It's my fault for not being able to lift my arm. I don't blame you."
After a few words, especially after knowing what he was thinking, Shao Wei stopped trying to sell him anything and started chatting with him. Before he knew it, he had finished washing the first half of the noodles. The customer turned around and rubbed his back."Brother, use some strength on your back.”
"Alright, Brother, don't worry. To be honest, you don't have a back. There's a lot in front of you ~"
"Brother, you should sleep with your upper body bare, right?"
"Yeah, that's right!"
"That's easy. The dust on your back is all on the blanket and mattress, so he has less!”
"What you said makes sense, hahahahaha ~"
"What shower gel? Give him salted milk and massage him properly. I'll pay for it ~" Brother Wong, the guest on the bed, suddenly interrupted.
"No, I just want to take a shower. Besides, how can I let you pay for my treat?”Shao Wei's customer spoke.
"Forget it. We've known each other for so many years. Who do you think you are? I don't know that money isn't that big in your pocket. My brother doesn't talk so much. I'll help you with the things I asked for today's class. Who hasn't been troubled by money? Give him some salted milk and give him a good massage ~ Don't say anything, I'm in charge!”
"Big Brother, look ~"
" Sigh, let's fight, brother. To be honest, I didn't bring much money with me today. Money is tight these days. A while ago, the cow had a problem, so I almost had no money. To be honest, we almost never came to your family's bathing center of this level." It was true that Shaowei came to work here relatively late. After he came, he heard that a high-end bathing center had opened in this small border city. Just the ticket price alone was enough to make a lot of money. Those who were more careful would flinch, but they had to admit that the idea was wrong. Money was something that could not be brought with it when it was born or taken with it when it was dead. In a situation where there was a surplus every day, one should enjoy it a little, because there was really nothing wrong with treating oneself a little better.
" Then, is this the first time Big Brother has come to our house?" Shao Wei asked, but his hands were not idle. He opened a tube of salt and quickly applied it to the customer's bar.
After that, he started a simple massage. The customer's frozen shoulder was already very serious, so he mainly took care of his shoulder. In the ancestral memory left by his ancestors, there was a saying that said,"Treat a headache, treat a pain in the foot, shoulder, and leg." Most of the time, the customer's frozen shoulder was caused by the blockage of the meridians and the long period of not moving. With the help of the white jade hand, although the customer couldn't be cured in one go because it would be too magical, the customer would also be afraid. However, it was not a problem at all to relieve his pain and alleviate his illness by knocking on the table and kneading.
"Your shop used to come here before the other shop opened, but this is the first time since he opened it. Aiyo, aiyo, you're really strong. Aiyo, this arm is quite comfortable~"
" It's comfortable, right? Although it can't cure you, it can help you relieve your pain. Don't forget, if the effect is good, you can promote your brother and our shop!" Shao Wei had never forgotten to promote himself and his shop no matter what. With advertisements and a good reputation, business would be better. With more customers in the shop, business would be better, and the masters who worked hard would naturally be able to earn more money.
"Okay, okay, okay ~" After the customer said this, he was left with a slight "aiyo" and "hiss". He took a mouthful of cold air, but it felt really good. It was as if he was asking if the food was delicious. Was the technique good? Only the tongue and the person knew.
They started to knock on the back, creating a cheerful rhythm that made the customers happy. They also listened happily. The old bath masters knew that knocking on the back was actually more tiring than bathing. Some of the masters who had nothing to do actually researched how many people and how many customers would go to bed together? He could actually turn it into music by hitting different points on the back. Although the sound was monotonous, it was also very magical, wasn't it?
"Hey, brother, the strength and timing of your knock on the back are really not bad. You should be new, right?”
"I've been here for more than half a year, almost a year. It's just that you've been here for a long time, so you haven't seen me yet ~" Sweat trickled down Shao Wei's face. He didn't stop working and even had to respond to the customer's words.
"Alright, as long as you're here, I'll come to your shop to wash in the future. Especially when it was cheaper than the other side. Those bastards, what else could they use if they didn't pay for it?，It was neither good nor bad, because most of the time, the customers did not understand the situation of the scrub workers, and the scrub workers did not understand the customers. Therefore, in order to speed up the progress, the customers felt that it was a scam. This was not clear, but there were some masters in this industry who were really too much. Under the circumstances where the customers did not have any supplementary work, they could not even scrub clean. It would be too much if the place that could be scrubbed was already clean, especially since foreign monks liked to chant scriptures. The scrubbing masters were also divided into north and south. The scrubbing profession first appeared in the daily life notes of Emperor Qianlong. When Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty went to Jiangnan, there was a Yangzhou scrubbing master who gave him a bath. This was the earliest master of this profession to appear in official historical materials, so it could be said that this profession had a long history (this was recorded in history, and the key points of painting needed to be tested).
After the customer got off the bed, he was very satisfied with the service. He rested his arms and stretched his legs. The degree of lifting his arms was much higher than when he first came, so he was very happy. There was no pain from tearing them apart. He picked up the cigarettes beside him and gave them to Shao Wei and Brother Wang. They each gave one. It was really like a starving camel was still bigger than a horse. Even though they were in a tight financial situation, they still smoked cigarettes that cost dozens of yuan a pack. It was unlike any other master in this industry. The best cigarettes he had smoked were the ones that he had been smoking all the time, and they were only worth a dozen yuan. Shao Wei was even more stingy. They were all worth less than ten yuan. It could be said that under no major accidents, Hongtashan cigarettes that were worth eight yuan would not collapse. Firstly, with the current situation of cigarette brands, the quality of this cigarette was cheap, especially since it was an old brand. Although there were some changes, it was still the same when smoking. At the very least, it was not too embarrassing. When he was free at home, he used to smoke cigarettes that he bought by the kilo. A kilo of cigarettes that cost 80 yuan could last him a year. Moreover, the smell of cigarettes was much better than these cigarettes. He did not cough or cough. The topic was a little off.
"Why do you talk so much?" Brother Wong, it's time for my menopause lecture again. As long as you were chatting with a customer, he would nag you if you wanted to get more work.
"It's good that you didn't make things difficult for me today. The last job was done through chatting. Can't you tell that you masters, especially those who run shops, can sell your faces and favors, but what about me?”
"When have you ever spent less than us?”
"How interesting. If I didn't have a foot massage and a foot massage, when did I ever sell anything to you?”
"Alright, don't be so stingy. Put the money down and I'll send it down. Do you want ice cream?”After Shao Wei said a few words, the matter was over. Actually, he would talk a lot with people who could talk in real life. Otherwise, he wouldn't be particularly willing to talk. When he was at home, he could stay quietly for a day, two days, three days, five days, half a month, or even a month.
"It's too cold. I won't eat it. You can go down!”Shao Wei put on his clothes and sent the tickets downstairs. It was still morning, after all, and Brother Wang had yet to come to work, so they could only send the tickets themselves. In this era where communication was so convenient, there were very few places that could provide handwritten tickets. They had asked the boss and the lady boss, but they did not say anything. They got the news that they were the ones who contracted the shop. A system and a touch-screen computer cost more than 100,000 yuan. If it wasn't his own shop, who would invest so much in it? Money was hard to earn in this world, and sh * t tasted bad. Since ancient times, it was difficult to make money, but it was easy to spend it. A few days ago, he was chatting with a friend on WeChat, and his friend told him that he had bought a phone for his child. It was called Rotten Apple Plus? After spending 10,000 yuan, Shao Wei's friend chuckled and said that his father had never used such an expensive phone before. However, he had no choice but to raise a child, especially her child. She was very worry-free and had excellent academic results. Most importantly, she was a girl. She had to be rich. Otherwise, she would be cheated away by others. Shao Wei would cry to death. When the two of them talked about this, Shao Wei's friend couldn't help but laugh out loud over the phone. He kept saying that it made sense.
The tickets had been delivered. There were no customers at the bar counter downstairs, so he smoked the cigarette that the customer had given him and went to the gate. The weather outside was good. The weather was clear and there were white clouds floating in the sky. There was not much sunshine. In this small border city, there was plenty of oxygen, no traffic, and there were not many people coming and going. It felt like the life here was peaceful!
Thinking about how he had earned a lot of money these days, he walked to the small market not far away with his shirt bare and his big pants on. He bought some food and drinks. Everyone ate and drank a little. Many times, this was how human relationships were maintained.
