Chapter 794: Extras (18)
(Minor repairs)
On the day of the opening of the Dayi Pavilion in Wangji Building, Yu Shu did not show up at all. There is no dragon and lion dance, and there is no stage team that blows, plays, and sings, only two strings of firecrackers are put in front of the door, and a case is set up at the gate.
No one knew that the owner of this Great Yi Pavilion was the current Si Tianjian Da Ti, and even most of the Twelve Mansion families had not heard the rumors. The guests who enter the door are either holding a big seal to make a bargain, or passers-by joining in the fun.
The Wangji Building is not as beautiful as the faΓ§ade of the Da Yi Pavilion on Qianyuan Street, but when you enter it, there is no cave. There are two welcoming guys in the door, all wearing black robes and red belts, looking refreshed, and when they see the guests entering the door, they will remind a few words with a smile - "If the guest officer wants to look at the fortune telling, please go to the west 'Bing Hall', and if there are any incurable diseases, go to the east 'Youqiu Hall', in addition, our Da Yi Hall will announce tomorrow's weather every morning, and you should pay attention to the 'Heavenly Machine List' in the hall."
Guests enter the door and turn around, you will find that this is very different from other places in the Dayi Museum, first of all, the "Bing Hall" to see the face of the hexagram of the gentleman will carefully ask your name and surname and birth date, recorded in a booklet, and then give you a number, saying that it is a month to come again, as long as the number is reported, you can get a peace charm for free.
If you suspect that the gentlemen of the "Bing Hall" side are not accurate, or if you have other troubles, you can go to the "Youqiu Hall" on the east side of the hall.
There was a long row of counters in the hall, and behind the counters sat young maids all dressed in green dresses, silver and red armor, with double hair combed, and a stack of yellow booklets and a plate of number tags in their hands. Specialized in handling incurable diseases. What is an incurable disease? It's like losing a cat or a dog, looking for people and things. It's like saying that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are not in harmony, husband and wife are not harmonious, and it is like saying that they are running into evil spirits and ghosts, and they are riddled with bad luck. No matter how big or small, but any problem that can be solved with easy learning can be left here with a bounty.
Guests only need to pay 10 coated paper and ink money, and they can take a number of signatures, leaving your problem with the gratuity, and agree on a time limit. When the time limit expires, if there is no reply, not only will the honorarium be refunded, but the ten copper plates will also be recovered.
Someone offers a reward, and naturally someone receives it. It doesn't matter whether he is a serious Yi Shi or not, but if he enters the Wangji Building, he only needs to pay ten copper plates, register the roster, and he can look at the reward list here at will. If you want to unveil the bill, you need to pay an additional one-tenth of the gratuity as a deposit, and you can get a corresponding number plate, meet with the rewarder in the meeting room on the second floor, and the two parties will solve it by themselves. When you turn around, you only need to hold the bounty person's number tag, and you can receive the corresponding remuneration in the forgotten machine building. At the same time, keep a record and accumulate a reward amount for backup.
So clearly stated. You can see all of them on the sign at the entrance of "Yukurido".
It is worth mentioning that the three highest rewards will be posted free of charge on the "Heavenly Machine List" in the center of the hall. For people to see.
Therefore, the guests who come and go every day in the Wangji Building are not just ordinary people who need to ask for divination. There are also idle Yike, ten copper plates are not money at all. Why not take advantage of the opportunity to earn extra money?
On the first day of opening, the teachers in Bing Hall were very busy, all of them were guests holding big seals to ask for free divination, and some of them were deserted, and only a dozen guests paid money to leave their names all day.
However, at the bottom of the heavenly list in the center of the hall, there was a group of people surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside, most of them to see the weather good or bad tomorrow, but they were surprised to see two rewards posted on the list and in red paper and gold letters-
Recruiting sons-in-law: Looking for a gentleman to enter the door, he must have good facial features and good character, no hidden diseases and both civil and military, and have the same ambitions. Bounty: The head of the Yi Xue family. Reward: 50,000 taels of gold.
Missing person notice: The teacher Qingzheng Dao Chang, who has traveled all over the world, is now investigating his whereabouts. Bounty Bearer: Si Tianjian Makes a Recommendation. Reward: 10,000 taels of gold.
All the guests who entered the Wangji Building witnessed this list of rewards, and they were amazed and spread by word of mouth, not only because of the rich bounty, but also because of the extraordinary identity of the person who issued the reward.
Some people also doubted the authenticity of these two bounty lists, and asked the manager and the guy of the Wangji Building, but the other party smiled incomprehensibly and replied: "The guest officer probably doesn't know who my master is." "There is no follow-up, but people are anxious to scratch their hearts, and they are curious to death.
So three days passed, the name of the forgotten machine building spread all over the streets and alleys, not to mention the south of the city, the north of the city is a piece of few people do not know
In the evening of that day, a mahogany soft sedan car stopped at the back door of the Wangji Building. Lu Hong and Xu Qing stepped forward and knocked on the door one by one, since Yu Shu ascended to the top of the Si Tianjian, the two of them were promoted to the five-rank guards with knives, and they were allowed to walk in front of the emperor, and they finally survived, envying the group of brothers who were still living in the Jinwu Guard.
Yu Shu took over Gu Hong from Zhu Qingjue, and asked this mysterious master to help her guide Lu Hong and Xu Qing, but in a few days, the skills of the two of them flew around, and they were also considered to be upstream among the many black-clothed guards.
The backyard of the forgetting machine building has not changed in the slightest, it is still the same as when the restaurant was opened, and the residents here are not only the shopkeeper Lin Fu and the guys, but also one more Xinli Mountain who is sitting here, and the two leaders are the first to change the division.
The idea of asking for the hall and the Bing hall was thought up by Yu Shu, but it was a rule deliberated by Xin Lishan. And the eye-catching heavenly machine list, the weather forecast is from Yu Shu's handwriting, and the red list reward is proposed by Xin Lishan first, Yu Shu is blessed to the heart, so he finalized a son-in-law notice and a missing person notice, which was approved by Xin Lishan with both hands.
The two smell the same, no, it should be said that they cherish each other, and they jointly opened the Big Easy Pavilion in Wangji Building. Half a month has passed in this blink of an eye, although it has not yet begun to make a profit, but the reputation is an instant hit, and if it continues to develop like this, it is just waiting for the melons to ripen.
Sitting in the tea room, Xin Lishan flipped through the roster in his hand and grinned at Yu Shu: "Today, there are seventy or eighty repeat customers who received peace charms in Bing Hall alone, and the cheapest is to ask for fortune, and they have collected a total of more than two hundred taels. Half of the 1,000 large seals that were sent out on the first day of the opening have been recovered. In other words, we've got 500 repeat customers. β
Two hundred taels of silver is not much at first glance. But you must know that this is the newly opened Dayi Museum, and there is no reputation at all. Hundreds of customers ask for hexagrams every day, and in the future, with word of mouth, this number will have to be multiplied several times. And that's not even counting the sale of some good luck and bad luck knick-knacks, and expensive feng shui ornaments.
"What's going on over there?" Yu Shu asked.
Xin Lishan was even happier when he mentioned this, "When you came up with this ghost idea, I was still playing the drum in my heart, I was afraid that I would end up stirring up the yellow, but I didn't think that it was only more than half a month, and there were hundreds of more rewards." Nearly 1,000 taels were collected for the prepaid remuneration alone, and some people took turns to increase the price in order to compete for the last reward spot on the Tianji list. As for the number of e-customers registered in our forgotten building, there are more than 100 people, and it is still growing. β
Yu Shu finally had a smile on his face, his fingers tapped the tea lid briskly, and said, "Wait another month or two, depending on the situation, you can add one more strange person list to the Tianji list." According to the number of honorariums accumulated by the e-customers on weekdays, the top five are listed, and they can go to the Wangji Building every month to receive a salary. β
Not only does she want to build a trading platform in the Forgotten Building, but she also wants to take this opportunity to attract a large number of idle customers. Let them be used by the Forgotten Machine Building, and become a force in her hands.
Hearing the words, Xin Lishan secretly smacked his tongue. Although Yu Shu was a big mentioner. His attitude towards him was the same as before, but he still felt the increasing grandeur and majesty in her. The strength that involuntarily exudes makes people unconsciously a head short in front of her.
"Then again. Fifth uncle, how did you think about the matter I mentioned to you last time? Yu Shu turned his words and looked at him.
Xin Lishan touched his nose and said, "I'm used to being free, you asked me to go to Si Tianjian to be an official, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay." Besides, I am at odds with Lord Zuo, just don't see each other, as soon as we meet, my eyes are red and my face is anxious, aren't you afraid that I will make Si Tianjian restless? β
The grievances between Xin Lishan and Xin Ya, the father and son, have never been resolved, and Yu Shu didn't think about interfering, but she felt a pity that a capable and capable Great Yi Master like Xin Lishan could not be accepted into Si Tianjian.
She doesn't have to use the Great Insight Technique, and she can see that Xin Lishan doesn't have no idea about entering the court as an official, but because of Xin Ya, she refuses to comply.
"Think about it again, I'll keep the position of the right judge of the Astronomical Bureau for you first, when you figure it out, let me know."
Xin Lishan nodded lightly, taking in her kindness.
The two talked about business, and Yu Shu rested in the Wangji Building that night, and did not sleep upstairs, but slept downstairs, the room where Xue Rui once lived. The incense burner in the room was smoked with his favorite orchid, which was as fresh and elegant as his person, and made her feel comfortable.
This night she had a dream, dreaming that she and he were boating on the Jade Lion Lake, admiring the wind and the moon, and spending a good night together
When he woke up the next day, Yu Shu was in a good mood, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was hung until Si Tianjian, and as soon as he arrived at Taixi Tower, he heard the good news in the palace - Empress Xiajiang gave birth to a little prince this morning, and both mother and son were safe.
Yu Shu hurriedly changed his clothes and went into the palace to meet him. When she arrived at Fengzao Palace, there was already a group of women sitting there in the side hall, Empress Dowager Rui and Empress Dowager Xue came, as well as Concubine Rui Shuyu and Mei Jieyu.
Three women in one play, there is one more here, and there is an undercurrent surging, Yu Shu doesn't know, but these women with extraordinary status in the harem have all suffered losses in her hands, and no one dares to mess with her for the time being.
Emperor Chongzhen wanted to accompany the queen in the dormitory, and after a while, he led the nurse who carefully hugged the emperor's eldest son over to show the two queen mothers.
"Ouch, this nose and eyes are born everywhere, and at first glance he is a blessed child." Empress Dowager Rui preemptively hugged the child and praised her in a series of ways.
Empress Dowager Xue didn't put on a cold face anymore, and said with a smile: "But isn't it, I think this child looks more like the emperor," and then turned his head to Emperor Chongzhen and said: "This child and you were just born when they were born, it was just a mold printed." β
Everyone could see the emperor's joy, no one present was disappointed, even Concubine Rui Shu didn't say anything sour.
"Lianfang," Emperor Chongzhen beckoned to Yu Shu, asking her to also step forward to see the child, and explained to her: "Si Tianjian has drafted a few auspicious words, I have to choose them well, and give the eldest prince a good name." β
Yu Shu looked at the baby in the swaddling clothes, red and wrinkled like a monkey, not as cute as Xiao Yu Guo in her family, but because it was a child born to Xia Jiangmin, her eyes couldn't help but soften, and the flame between her eyebrows became warm.
"The minister's decree, be sure to draw up a few good words for His Royal Highness." (To be continued......)
