Chapter 714: Shunde Fang
Shen Liuhui inscribed a plaque for the roast duck restaurant, which Lian Man'er did not expect. om Lian Man'er and Wulang exchanged another look, and they both understood what Shen Liu meant by doing this.
Now that Gorou has obtained the fame of Xiucai, and with the support of Mr. Lu, a teacher, and the Shen Mansion, he will definitely enter the official career in the future. And Xiao Qi, ** also has to follow the same path as Gorou. Shi Nong Industry and Commerce, Lian Man'er's family was a farmer first, and now they are a soldier, and after entering the threshold of Shi, they will climb step by step.
It is not enough to have one or two companies in Thirty Miles of Yingzi and Jinyang County, and when you arrive in Fucheng, it is not appropriate to hang the signboard of Lianji. There's nothing wrong with them being the owners of the shop, but they shouldn't be hung on a plaque.
This is Shen Liu's very thoughtful and far-reaching consideration for the Lian family.
In fact, even Man'er has thought about this matter. She believes that the signboard of the company will not have any impact, and it is more convenient to promote it if it is unified into one company. Her expectations are not limited to Jinyang County, nor are they limited to Liaodong Mansion. Her expectations are even broader.
However, since Shen Liu took the initiative to choose another name for the roast duck restaurant, even Man'er was happy to accept it. Shen Liu has been immersed in officialdom over the years, his vision is far-reaching and broader than hers, and Lian Man'er respects his prudence.
It was an unexpected joy to get the plaque inscribed by Shen Liu, but this did not make Lian Man'er forget that there was another important thing.
"Sixth Master, has there been any big banquet in the mansion recently?" Lian Man'er waited for the handwriting to dry thoroughly, so she and Gorou carefully rolled up the rice paper, ready to take it away later, and asked Shen Liu with a smile.
"The Great Feast? What's your idea? Shen Liu walked away from the table, went straight out of the door, stood by the vermilion railing, and looked out from the railing.
Wulang and Lian Man'er naturally followed Shen Liu.
Phoenix Tower is extremely high, standing here, not only the Shen Mansion can be seen at a glance, but also the entire Shen City. Needless to say, the gate tower and corner tower on the city wall of Shencheng are this phoenix tower, which obviously also has a military purpose.
The bright lights in the nearby Shen Mansion, and then the lights of thousands of homes in Shen City, the sky is high and wide for a while. When the wind blew slowly, a little girl approached lightly and held a large piece of rice in her hand.
Shen Liu turned his head to see it, and glanced at Lian Man'er quickly. He rejected the little girl's intention to put on a big coat for him, but reached out to pick it up. However, he changed his mind again, put down the big hat, left the side of the building, and went into the house again.
Today's weather is quite chilly after nightfall. Xiaoxi and Xiaoqing also brought Wulang, Lian Man'er and Xiaoqi's clothes bags, but the two girls were not in front of them. Shen Liu walked back into the house, but he also saved Lian Man'er and Wulang from freezing.
"If there is a big banquet in the house, just use the roast duck feast." Lian Man'er laughed.
Let Shen Liu taste Lian Ji's roast duck first, in order to get his approval first. And let the Shen Mansion feast with roast duck and feast guests, this is the ultimate goal of Lian Man'er.
After all, if you go out now and say that Shen Liu likes to eat roast duck very much, I believe that after the roast duck restaurant opens, there will be people who will come to it. But in doing so, others have heard about it. And if you come to Shen's house for a banquet and really eat roast duck, the situation will be very different. Those who can come to the Shen Mansion for a banquet are naturally the magnates in the city. This group of people is the target customer group of the roast duck restaurant. And once these people are sought after, the roast duck restaurant will be able to come like a cloud.
"Nope." Da Ma sat down on the chair with a knife and said neatly.
This is naturally not a real refusal, if he really wants to refuse, Shen Liu will definitely not say this, nor will he use such an attitude. Because of this, Lian Man'er felt a little itchy when she looked at Shen Liu.
Itchy teeth are itchy teeth, and with a few guts, she didn't dare to put the idea of beating Shen Liu's anger into action. Not only can't you fight, but you have to coax.
"Originally, there was none, but as long as the sixth master said that there was, then there would naturally be." Lian Man'er released her star eyes again, "Sixth Master, you are old and wise and powerful, and your spirit is extraordinary, just help people to the end and send the Buddha to the west." ”
The star-eyed Lian Man'er, at this moment, there was a villain in his heart at the same time, who was raising his eyebrows and pointing at Shen Liu to reprimand. Do you want to take one-fifth of the dry shares for nothing, and take people's money to eliminate disasters? You're also a shareholder, so of course you have to do things for the store. There is no such thing as a good thing in this world that just takes money and does not work. And you're not going to do anything that tasteless, are you?
"Am I old?" Shen Liu raised his hand, touched the stubble on his chin, and asked as if he was a little dissatisfied.
Lian Man'er choked for a moment, this is called picking bones in eggs, and there is no excuse for the sin that you want to add. You are old, that is clearly an honorific title, and it has no direct relationship with age.
Isn't it enough to shoot the sycophants, Shen Liu is hinting at her and asking her to praise her for being young and handsome?
Lian Man'er was embarrassed. Although Shen Liu is very worthy of the four words young and handsome, it is very difficult for her to say these four words in front of Shen Liu. She didn't stand so boastful. Her age and gender make her not have this position. If she really boasted like this, wouldn't Shen Liu think that she was slighting him?
Shen Liu shouldn't think she despised him, but he would think that she had thoughts about him, for sure.
Lian Man'er choked for a moment, and before she could say anything, there was a sound of footsteps outside, it was Mr. Lu who came back with Mr. Chu, Shen Jin, Shen Qian and Xiao Qi when the hour was almost up.
Everyone talked and laughed again, and the hour was not early, and Lian Man'er had to get up and say goodbye.
Shen Liu did not stay, it was still the Shen Mansion that sent a car to send Lian Man'er and the others back to Songshu Hutong.
After sending Lian Man'er and the others away, Shen Liu sent Shen Jin and Shen Qian back to rest, and walked back to the study by himself. Shen Liu sat in front of the table, took out the contract of dry stocks and revisited it, and a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth. He stood up and walked over to the wall and rolled up a pair of scrolls. Then, a click was heard, revealing a dark grid on the wall.
Shen Liu took out a wooden box from the dark compartment, opened it, and then carefully put the paper contract inside.
Twenty percent of the dry shares of a store may be a rich property in other families, but in Shen Liu, this is not an explanation. The reason for such careful storage is only known to him.
“…… Even if it is, leave it with me first. Shen Liu closed the secret grid and said to himself.
Walking back to the table and sitting down, Shen Liu casually picked up a scroll and did a night reading. It's just that if someone gets closer, they will find that Shen Liu's eyes don't have the words on the scroll at all, and his mind is naturally not on the scroll.
Shen Liuye, who has been working hard all the time, is rarely distracted.
On the other side, Lian Man'er had already returned to her home in Fucheng. Because of the matter of holding a roast duck banquet, it was not approved by Shen Liu in the end, and Lian Man'er was a little apprehensive. If the other party was not Shen Liu, but someone else, she would even suspect that the other party was disgusted with the lack of dry shares, and wanted to ask for more.
But the other party was Shen Liu, and Lian Man'er didn't think about it.
Lian Man'er attributed the reason why Shen Liu did this to because Shen Liu's personality, although he had so many advantages, those advantages could not hide Shen Liu's bad taste, and he was not born a good person. Before going to bed, Lian Man'er was still slandering.
The next day, after breakfast, Lian Man'er and Wulang discussed, and were about to take the words written by Shen Liu to make a plaque, when it was reported outside that the Zhong steward of the Shen Mansion was here.
The people of the Shen Mansion have the most dealings with the Lian family, except for Zhang Qianhu in the army, who is the Zhong steward.
Invite the bell steward into the house, and after a little greeting, the bell steward will get straight to the point.
“…… There will be a banquet in the mansion the day after tomorrow, and there are many people invited, and the sixth master sent me over to discuss with the fourth master and the fifth master. ”
The Shen Mansion held a banquet, but asked Lian Shouxin and Wulang to discuss, which clearly agreed to her request for the roast duck banquet. Lian Man'er didn't think that this was Shen Liu's change of mind overnight, he must have decided a long time ago, but he didn't say it yesterday, and deliberately misunderstood her, as a result, early this morning, he sent a surprise.
In addition to joy, Lian Man'er couldn't help grinding her teeth.
The next few days were busy for the whole family. And things are going quite smoothly. Shen Liu is about to enter Beijing to congratulate the emperor on his birthday, and Shen Jin is about to enter the palace, and it is meaningless, he will be a candidate for the main palace. Before leaving, the Shen Mansion feasted the guests, and all the powerful people in the city arrived. The people of the Shen family who are in other places, those who can come back have also returned. This banquet was naturally very lively. And the roast duck in Shunde Fang also became popular overnight.
Shunde Fang was opened on the third day after the feast, and in the sound of firecrackers, the red silk fell, revealing the plaque inscribed by Shen Liu on the lintel. The roast duck noodles in the store have long been booked. Not only were the seats set for the opening day, but also for the next few days.
Shunde Fang's hanging oven roast duck, all need to be booked. There will be people who will transport cramming ducks from the thirty-mile camp to the city according to the predetermined list. Ducks that arrive at night are slaughtered immediately, then roasted the same day and sold the same day. Only by booking in advance can you eat the freshest and most delicious roast duck.
A few days after the opening of Shunde Fang, Lian Shouxin, Wulang, Lian Man'er and Xiaoqi sat in the account room behind the store, listening to the account report of the shopkeeper Chen and the bookkeeper, and the eyes were full of cash boxes next to them, and they once again felt the joy of the harvest.
The daily income of a Shunde Fang is actually the sum of the income of several stores in the county.
"Fucheng is such a good place." When there were only a few masters, Lian Shouxin couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"Of course." Lian Man'er smiled. Liaodong Mansion is naturally the first to recommend the capital city. However, within the boundaries of the entire Ming Dynasty, there was a more prosperous and better place for gold mining than Fucheng.
Shunde Fang, worthy of its name, has just started.
