It seems like maid cafes were uniquely Japanese. Anyway, when Lin Jin first heard about maid cafes and the like, it was from news from Japan.

Even though this kind of thing has already made its way to China, typically it would only exist in large cities, right? Although Xiamen, where Lin Jin currently resides, was also considered a big city, her school is essentially in a remote area. If anyone were to actually open a so-called maid cafe, wouldn't a sensible person choose the city center to attract more attention?

Yawning, Lin Jin sat with Lin Xin in the school cafeteria, waiting for two bowls of mixed noodles.

Normally, Lin Jin prefers things like soymilk and fried dough sticks for breakfast, but it seems that this isn't popular in Xiamen. The breakfast at the school cafeteria, aside from mixed noodles and flat meat, only offers soymilk with small meat buns or fried dough with some strange ingredients.

So Lin Jin doesn't really like having breakfast, she simply doesn't know what to eat. Even if they don't have specialties like pot stickers, they should at least have soy milk and fried dough sticks, right? The breakfast at school is all greasy stuff that doesn't seem appetizing at all.

"I'm treating you to breakfast just for accompanying me on this little trip" Lin Jin rolled her eyes, as someone who's financially challenged, treating others to meals is not something she often does. "And there's nothing good to eat anyway."

By the way, Lin Xin and Lin Jin are from the same hometown, although Lin Xin is a native of Fuzhou city proper and Lin Jin is from a county-level city under Fuzhou.

Although they usually like to speak Mandarin, they also occasionally use some dialects to tease each other for fun.

"I want pot stickers" Lin Xin said.

Holding his phone to check out Dota news, Lin Xin complained, "I saw a place selling pot stickers when I was hungry last time. I ordered a serving, and it was terrible. They even put cumin in it, a real dark cuisine."

"You'll get used to it." Lin Jin's favorite breakfast at home is usually pot stickers with a fried oyster cake. Although the fried oyster cake is quite greasy, the pot sticker is very light. The simple shrimp and small dried fish flavor of the oyster cake, mixed with the pot sticker is simply delicious.

However, it's been almost half a year since she last had it.

Lin Jin, somewhat melancholic, rested her cheek on one hand, staring at the dining table.

The food in the school cafeteria isn't great either. Their mixed noodles cost only three yuan, but the portion is pitifully small. One chopstick can hold all the noodles. If your mouth is big and you're not afraid of the heat, you might be able to swallow it whole in a second. The noodles they use aren't the kind Lin Jin often eats. Even though they are flat noodles, they are so thin that the texture isn't good at all.

"Let's finish eating, pack up, and leave" Lin Jin went to the counter and paid with Alipay, then stood next to Lin Xin. "Hurry up, it's already eight o'clock. Go outside with me."

"I know" Lin Xin is a homebody who normally stays in the dorm and doesn't want to go out. Now, perhaps because he got up too early and had nothing to do, he really planned to go out with Lin Jin.

Lin Jin thought that if Lin Xin knew that she planned to apply to become a maid, he wouldn't need to treat him to breakfast. Lin Xin would definitely follow eagerly, and couldn't be driven away.

After all, such an interesting thing...

Leaving from the back gate of the school, the shops on the main street were all closed during the day. Many barbecue stalls and food stands only open at night, at which time the whole street would be filled with a heavy smoky smell. Just passing by could cause you to choke, making your throat dry and induce nausea.

Fortunately, during the day, this street is still quite clean, without serious smoke pollution.

"Do you know where that shop is?" Lin Xin is a true smartphone addict. He was walking with his head down playing on his phone next to Lin Jin, and without raising his head, he asked Lin Jin, "Don't tell me you don't know where it is and brought me out to find it aimlessly."

"How would I know?" Lin Jin put his hands in his pockets. Ever since he had once again become a man, he felt an explosion of self-confidence, with no traces of weakness. Even his speech had become more assertive. "Anyway, I don't know. Let's just wander around."

"You’re way too f*cking idle. Instead of wandering around, you should go back and play Dota." Lin Xin yawned, holding his phone and playing with it, he almost bumped into Lin Jin as he walked with his head down.

To be honest, aimlessly wandering isn't a good method, but Lin Jin had already searched through various maps, asked on Tieba, and various university forums last night. Still, he hadn't found any relevant information.

Could it be that black cat is planning to scam people again?

It seems like this isn't the first or second time the black cat has done something like this. Could it be that there isn't a maid café in Xiamen at all, and this task is one of those tasks that can't be completed?

Hmm, if there really is a so-called maid café near the school, even if it can't be found on the map, there would definitely be relevant information on Tieba, right?

Lin Jin sighed, reopened the school's Tieba forum, and immediately saw a new pinned post.

"Maid Café Opening!"

Huh? Lin Jin clicked on the page, and discovered that the maid café hadn't started operating yet. Furthermore, the café's location was inside a polytechnic university a half hour walk away. And this café was still in need of servers... in other words, it was in need of maids. At the bottom of the post was a recruitment message, the requirement was someone good-looking who was willing to call customers "master."

Huh?

Why did they have to call customers "master"?

Although it's a bit embarrassing, the salary for the maid servers is quite high. Considering that most of the servers are students, the wages are paid weekly. The hourly wage is a full 15 yuan, meaning that if one is willing to work ten hours a day, the monthly salary will be at least 4,500, and with various benefits, the salary could exceed 5,000.

Even without black cat's task, Lin Jin was already very tempted by the high salary. Just going there to work after class every day, even if he only works three hours a day, that's over 1,300 yuan a month, right?

Lin Jin swallowed, it's just being a maid, right? It's just calling someone "master", right? For money, he would even call someone "husband" let alone "master." It's not like calling someone "master" or "husband" would make him lose a limb.

"Let's go! Head back!" Lin Jin took note of the recruitment information in the forum, planning to call and apply as soon as he got back.

"Lin Jin, is your brain not working well today?" Lin Xin looked at Lin Jin, who was full of joy, his eyes completely captivated by money, "Do you have a fever?"

"No! I know where that shop is, I'll go there myself later."

Lin Jin confidently said, "I'm just worried that you might get a stomachache from walking so far right after eating!"

He plans to hurry back, call to apply for the job, and then run over for the interview dressed in women's clothes.

Since there's money to be made, calling someone "master" while being a maid isn't a big problem. Is wearing women's clothes even something to consider?
