The next day.
Jiangcheng Bofu.
After everyone finished breakfast, Zhu Xiuyuan smiled and said: "Madam, Shuyu, today we will go out to see the restaurant and try to confirm the location first."
"Okay!" Dong Shuzhen waved with joy.
"Well, let me change my clothes." Dong Shuyu also nodded.
So everyone went back to their rooms to prepare.
My father-in-law, Dong Cheng, put on his crimson round-collared official robe and went to run his duty at the Yamen of Runzhou Prefecture.
Zhu Xiuyuan went back and changed into casual clothes.
The two sisters Dong Shuyu and Dong Shuzhen, in addition to changing their clothes, also focused on dressing up, stroking their cheeks and eyebrows, etc., which made Zhu Xiuyuan wait for a while.
Half an hour later.
Everyone gathered at the gate of the mansion, got on their carriages, and set off towards the Qinhuai River.
"Husband, are we going...to the place where the pipa master lives?" Dong Shuzhen put down the side curtain of the carriage and looked back at Zhu Xiuyuan, her face slightly unhappy.
"This is not a place for pipa masters!" Zhu Xiuyuan pulled the lady back and pressed her on the seat, "Madam, you have forgotten that our Dong's Tea House is also over there! We are going to the tea house!"
"Oh, yes, I forgot about this." Dong Shuzhen suddenly realized, and then she wondered: "But husband, why are we going to the tea house? That vixen is nearby!"
Dong Shuzhen has always "never forgotten" Kou Wanwan.
"Because right next to the entrance of Wuyi Lane, that is, right next to Dong's Tea House, there is a restaurant, and the shopkeeper wants to transfer it."
"Because the restaurant is close to the teahouse, it can be convenient for Shuyu to take care of in the future. Moreover, the location of the restaurant is very good. Both Weihu and Shuyu value that place."
Zhu Xiuyuan smiled.
"Oh, that's it!" Dong Shuzhen nodded.
Soon, the carriage arrived at Chaoku Street and stopped at the entrance of Wuyi Lane.
Everyone got off the car and went to Dong's Tea House for a break. It was still early, so they could have a cup of tea before going.
A long queue of "hungry" people has already lined up in front of the tea house. They are all customers who are waiting for the tea house to open and then rush in to buy "today's portion" of new tea.
Because the tea house adopts a quantitative sales model.
In the afternoon the day before, customers could only buy "tea coupons", and the tea coupons were fixed.
On the morning of the second day, use the tea coupon to purchase the specified amount of tea.
In this way, it is convenient for both the guests and the tea house.
The tea house only needs to sell tea in the morning and "tea purchase coupons" in the afternoon, thus avoiding a lot of conflicts and confusion.
Because the queue in front of the tea house was too long, Zhu Xiuyuan and the others entered the tea house through the back door.
We came to a small living room at the back of the store, which was converted from three rooms at the back of the store.
Of the other two rooms, one was converted into Dong Shuyu's independent office and the other was converted into a warehouse.
"Xiuyuan's 'pre-sale' method is really clever!" Dong Shuyu poured tea for everyone in person, "Guests don't have to queue up again, and they don't have to fight for the only supply of goods. And our tea house is also a lot more relaxed..."
Zhu Xiuyuan sat calmly like an old man, watching Dong Shuyu pouring tea, and then following her hand, he couldn't help but look at her face.
Dong Shuyu also put on makeup today.
She applied makeup and lipstick.
In addition, the hair is piled high, the hair accessories are exquisite, and the clothes are elegant and gentle.
As a result, her whole person looked glamorous, gentle and approachable.
The whole body seems to be exuding a kind of glory, which is very attractive.
Dong Shuyu noticed the way Zhu Xiuyuan was looking at her and couldn't help but give him a vague glance.
Then he turned away, holding the pot in hand, and poured tea for Dong Shuzhen.
"I just love drinking tea made by my sister!"
Dong Shuzhen held the teacup with both hands and leaned over with a smile.
Dong Shuyu held the teapot and started pouring it. A stream of green tea soup poured out and slowly poured into the tea cup.
"There is nothing we can do about this. The production of fried tea has never increased." Zhu Xiuyuan was a little embarrassed, withdrew his gaze, and turned to hold the tea cup.
"This capital city is far from comparable to Jiangzhou. Civil and military officials from all dynasties, wealthy merchants and landowners all gather here. If possible, they can sell out all our inventory at once." Zhu Xiuyuan smelled the aroma of tea and blew it.
, take another small peck.
"So, we can only take the pre-sale method... That's a lot of money. Who doesn't want to make more money?" Zhu Xiuyuan finished drinking the tea and did not put down the tea cup, but held it in his hand to warm it.
"It seems that we should find ways to increase the output of fried tea..." Dong Shuyu finally poured himself tea.
"This matter is not urgent." Zhu Xiuyuan put down his tea cup and smacked his lips, "If we rashly increase the production of fried tea, we will definitely increase the risk of leaking the frying method."
"For now, the tea house is our main source of income and expenditure. We must not reveal the method of tea frying unless we have to!" Zhu Xiuyuan added.
"Well, I will open the restaurant as soon as possible and reserve enough money and food for recruiting generals in the mansion." Dong Shuyu nodded, she has never forgotten this important matter.
"Well...it's not urgent..." Zhu Xiuyuan looked at Dong Shuyu's face again.
Her face is thin and handsome, coupled with a hint of lingering sadness, which makes her more and more interesting and makes people want to explore.
"There is still a lot of money and food in the warehouse of the mansion, which was rewarded by His Majesty, as well as the income from the farm... I can barely cope with it for a while." Zhu Xiuyuan added with a smile.
Dong Shuyu simply stood up and walked slowly to avoid Zhu Xiuyuan's prying eyes.
He also said: "The gifts given by Your Majesty will eventually be used up. Although there are thousands of acres of fertile land in the mansion, we do not want to exploit those tenant farmers... Compared with the money and food that the family will consume, these are far from enough."
"We still have to expand our income. The tea house is one, and the newly opened restaurant is the second!" Dong Shuyu said while walking slowly.
"Well, thank you for your hard work, Shuyu!" Zhu Xiuyuan nodded.
"Sister, if Zhen'er is free, come and help!" Dong Shuzhen also came over.
"You!" Dong Shuyu nodded his sister's forehead, shook his head and said, "Just don't do anything to help..."
"No, she is very powerful!" Dong Shuzhen's face suddenly became serious, eager to express herself, "Sister, husband, I have an idea right now to make the newly opened restaurant better and more profitable!"
"Oh, madam, do you have any ideas? You might as well tell me." Zhu Xiuyuan said with a smile.
"Artificial hot spring, we can move the artificial hot spring into the restaurant and use it as a gimmick... No, it should be what my husband said... buy some, yes, just buy some!"
After Dong Shuzhen finished speaking, she stuck out her head and looked at the expressions of Dong Shuyu and Zhu Xiuyuan respectively.
A pair of big eyes are very bright, with a hint of expectation.
"Not bad!" Zhu Xiuyuan clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Not bad, my wife's method reminded me, it is indeed a good method!"
"We can transform some rooms into rooms with artificial hot springs. Even if the price is doubled, or even doubled, or tripled, I believe many people will flock to it!" Dong Shuyu took over.
"Haha, right, as I said, I am also very powerful and can help my sister and husband!" Dong Shuzhen jumped out arrogantly.
She raised her delicate and snow-white chin, and her eyes moved back and forth on the faces of Dong Shuyu and Zhu Xiuyuan, waiting for praise.
Zhu Xiuyuan and Dong Shuyu naturally satisfied her and did not hesitate to praise her.
This made Dong Shuzhen extremely happy, and the smile on her face could no longer be kept.
…
After drinking a cup of tea, everyone left the teahouse through the back door. After walking a few steps, they turned into Wuyi Lane, and then walked a few more steps until they arrived in front of the restaurant.
This building is four stories high and covers a very large area. It is a "courtyard-style restaurant" because there are three courtyards behind it.
In other words, in addition to this four-story wooden building, it also has five or six buildings surrounding three courtyards!
This is a very large restaurant!
Above the majestic facade, there is a plaque with three large regular script characters of "Zui Xianju" written in gold.
Zhu Xiuyuan actually came here for an on-site inspection of this "Drunken Immortal Residence". He was very satisfied at that time and had negotiated the price with the shopkeeper.
But later, he was bought by Luo Ding at a high price.
Later, the Luo family got into trouble and their property was confiscated, so the restaurant went into the pockets of the Imperial Mansion.
According to Zhu Xiuyuan's plan, he will conduct a "leakage" operation on the restaurant that Luo Ding bought at a high price and redeem it at a low price.
But he was a step too late.
This Zuixianju was unexpectedly bought by someone else first.
And I still don’t know who that person is!
There was no other way, so Zhu Xiuyuan had no choice but to come here again to negotiate the transfer with the current owner.
When everyone entered the store and explained their intention, the shopkeeper came out to greet them personally and ordered a waiter to take them around to "inspect the goods" first.
It became clear that Dong Shuyu became more and more satisfied the longer he walked around. He nodded frequently and praised him repeatedly along the way.
Zhu Xiuyuan observed from the side and knew that Dong Shuyu was already interested. She really fell in love with this restaurant!
"Are Shuyu still satisfied?" Zhu Xiuyuan suddenly asked.
