Bidding farewell to his mentor Xu Jie, Zhu Ping'an returned to the Hou Mansion to listen to Yuxuan. As soon as he entered Tingyuxuan, Zhu Ping'an found a surprise.

There is a bath bucket in the middle of the courtyard, which looks familiar at first glance, but even more familiar when you look closely.

Belch.

Isn't this bath bucket the one that Xu Fan asked people to carry along the street to sell, and he didn't sell it for three hundred taels of silver, his father Xu Jie's favorite bath bucket? !

Ahem

At that time, I had just entered Xu's mansion, and when I heard Xu Fan say this, I was still slandered in my heart, thinking that who would spend 300 taels of silver to buy a second-hand bath bucket. 300 taels of silver is equivalent to more than 20,000 yuan, and the bath barrel of the Ming Dynasty is not the modern high-tech bath barrel with massage and other functions, how can the bath bucket made of wood be worth 300 taels of silver.

Which wronged man would buy a second-hand bath bucket to use?!

Unexpectedly, the biggest injustice I thought at that time was myself.

"Giggles, does my uncle like it, this is what the young lady specially bought for her uncle for three hundred taels of silver."

The little girl with the bun jumped out of nowhere, like a little butterfly, giggled and appeared beside Zhu Ping'an, stretched out her little fat hand and patted the bathtub, blinked her big watery eyes, looked at Zhu Ping'an and asked.

When Zhu Ping'an heard this, he was stunned for a moment, if he let himself use the second-hand bath bucket that Xu Jie often bathed in, it would be a huge challenge.

Although Zhu Ping'an has no habit of cleanliness, after thinking that this bath bucket is a bath bucket that has been passed down by Xu Jie's family for two generations, Zhu Ping'an is a little discouraged.

"Hun said, who uses a broken bath bucket used by a stinky old man, let people put it in the warehouse, any corner can be, and it will be an eyesore."

Li Shu came suddenly, wearing an off-white cloud smoke shirt embroidered with elegant plum blossoms, a big red antique double butterfly cloud-shaped thousand-water skirt mopping the floor, holding a Suzhou embroidered mandarin duck playing in the water group fan, her pretty face was as charming as the moon of three springs, a pair of watery eyes looked forward to the brilliance, she laughed angrily, and her slender jade hand flicked on the head of the little girl with a bun.

"Miss, it's painful ......" The little girl with the bun covered her head with a pair of chubby hands, and looked at Li Shu with tears in her eyes.

Boom.

Li Shu flicked the bun again, and said with a sneer: "This is painful." ”

The little girl with the bun let out a painful sound, and once again stretched out her little fat hand to cover her head, this time it was really a little painful......

"Miss, why do we have to spend 300 taels of silver to buy a broken bath bucket, it looks like it has been used......" The little girl with the bun rubbed her head and asked puzzled.

"Such a good opportunity, why not buy it." Li Shuyan smiled, her beautiful eyes were looking forward to it, "Is it a husband?" ”

Belch.

All right.

It's a pity that Li Shu, this girl is not an official.

Zhu Ping'an smiled bitterly and touched his head, Li Shu is more suitable to be an official than himself, if Li Shu is a man, he will definitely be better than his own official, and he will do it bigger.

Well, if you buy it, you can buy it, and you can be regarded as a protégé to help the teacher.

It's just that he owes Li Shu another 300 taels of silver.

Hehe.

How do you feel that you are going farther and farther on the road of eating soft rice, no, no, you are a dignified seven-foot man, and if you don't support your family, how can you keep spending Li Shu's money.

I have to find a way to make money, Zhu Ping'an once again moved the idea of the tertiary industry, and decided to put it into action this time.

There will be more places to spend money in the future.

Don't think about it, on the one hand, I have too little money, and on the other hand, my year's money has been deducted by Emperor Jiajing's last holy decree.

Therefore, now that I have no financial resources, if I want to make money, I can only create a tertiary industry.

At noon, Wang Shizhen and Zhang Siwei came to visit together, and they heard that Zhu Ping'an had been fined 160 taels of silver, but Zhu Ping'an was in a hurry, so they came over together to send silver to Zhu Ping'an.

Charcoal in the snow.

The heart was received, but the silver was confiscated by Zhu Ping'an, because the fine had been handed over with Li Shu's strong support.

After hearing that Zhu Ping'an had already paid the fine, Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen did not insist anymore.

Zhang Siwei smiled and quipped, I told Wensheng a long time ago not to worry about Zihou, Zihou is a fast son-in-law of the dragon in the Linhuai Marquis Mansion, I heard that Zihou Yuezhang has a lot of financial resources, what is this fine.

Wang Shizhen also laughed.

Zhu Ping'an smiled helplessly and shook his head, although Zhang Siwei was joking and joking, but once again strengthened Zhu Ping'an's belief in creating the tertiary industry.

Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen had to go to work at their respective yamen in the afternoon, and after Zhu Ping'an invited them to have a simple lunch in the outer courtyard of the Hou Mansion, the two quit and went to work, and Zhu Ping'an sent them all the way to the outside of the mansion.

The three of them separated at the end of Gonghou Street, Zhang Siwei and Wang Shizhen went to work, and Zhu Ping'an went to the Qihuamen area of Dongcheng District alone.

The area around Qihuamen in Dongcheng District is the location that Zhu Ping'an was optimistic about last time, and it is the best choice to create a tertiary industry location.

This is the most prosperous area in the imperial capital except for the "first three gates", and the flow of people is more than the first three gates.

This is the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal to the imperial capital must pass through, is the economic lifeline of the entire Ming Empire and the letter acupoint, Cao transport grain, merchants and merchants, the four sides of the contribution, into Beijing and out of Beijing, officials, businessmen, civilians and Lifu in and out of endlessly, the traffic of Qihuamen is endless.

Zhu Ping'an was optimistic about this location last time, and he also had preliminary considerations for the type of tertiary industry.

Catering industry.

Zhu Ping'an's initial plan for the tertiary industry is the catering industry, and the flow of people in the Qihuamen area is huge, so it is the most suitable for the catering industry. The catering industry is an industry with a low entry threshold and high profits.

Initially testing the waters, Zhu Ping'an plans to face the common people and Lifu, and do popular catering. Zhu Ping'an has inspected that in this area, compared with businessmen and officials, the base of ordinary people is the largest. Zhu Ping'an is a grassroots foodie in modern times, and when he was in school, he ate almost all the fast food restaurants and small restaurants in the neighborhood, and he also knew the most about the modern fast food industry and cheap restaurants. Of course, compared with high-end restaurants, the investment cost of this kind of mass catering is also much lower.

Last time, Zhu Ping'an brought Xiong Zi and Little Lori Niuniu to inspect here, and there is a lot of room for improvement in restaurants for ordinary people and Lifu in this area, whether it is dishes, services or marketing, etc., they are far from modern.

A pot of tea is charged, the dishes are expensive, the meat dishes are more expensive, the serving speed is slow, the dishes are missing catties and two, the service attitude is not good, and the environment is not good...... There are a lot of problems, and the list is endless, and none of them are very popular.

Zhu Ping'an plans to open a popular catering to test the waters, healthy catering, and benefit the people, not only to benefit the people, but also to make themselves more entrants, why not do it.

Come out, fast food.
