Chapter 47: Mingfeng Pavilion
Xiao Mo was a little embarrassed about whether or not to go to Wang Zhanpeng's invitation, because Ming'er was the day when Xiao Mo took over the restaurant, and it was also the day when the slave market sent those children over.
The restaurant is not in a hurry to renovate, but Xiao Mo is still very concerned about the accommodation and diet of those children, and he doesn't want any problems to arise at that time.
However, Wang Zhanpeng's appointment time is after noon, which is equivalent to two o'clock in the afternoon in later generations. This is still a lot of time for Xiao Mo, and it will be in time for Ming'er to move quickly in the morning. So Xiao Mo finally accepted Wang Zhanpeng's invitation, but in order to prevent accidents, Xiao Mo still asked Sixi to go back and report that it might be a little later.
Early the next morning, Xiao Mo finished his workout early, and then soaked in the bath bucket like a toad on his back, and from time to time he scratched the two cows that soaked in another bucket side by side.
Xiao Mo saw that Erniu was sitting straight, with a serious face. couldn't help laughing and said: "I said Erniu, don't you just take a bath, you need to sit straight, and with a straight face, it's like going to prison?"
Er Niu nodded and replied very seriously: "Young Master, this medicinal bath and the secret method of practicing qi are too precious, Er Niu must practice seriously, so that he can live up to Grandpa Han's wishes, and he can also protect Xiang'er and Young Master well in the future."
Xiao Mo pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "Don't listen to that old man's nonsense, that old man talks all day long, and he looks like a magic stick!" Do you really think that there are any secret martial arts methods in this world? “
Erniu nodded very seriously and said, "Young Master, Erniu believes Grandpa Han's words."
Xiao Mo didn't bother to waste saliva on this matter after hearing this, so he changed the topic and said: "Let's not talk about this, you and I will go outside later, young master, I will take over the restaurant, and those children." The ox cart will be left to you. “
Er Niu replied respectfully: "Er Niu listens to the young master."
For Xiao Mo, taking over the restaurant and those children is also a very simple thing, at this time, the businessman, the most important thing is reputation and quality, once the transaction is completed, they will try their best to do the best, so that customers are satisfied.
Xiao Mo only told one thing from beginning to end, that is, let Xiaoya prepare steamed buns as much as possible, although those children were bought by themselves and would not be bullied again, this does not mean that the slave market will give them enough to eat, after all, it is a slave market! The principle of doing things is as long as you don't starve to death.
Xiao Mo was wearing a light blue Confucian shirt today, which he bought in the shop that day. Moreover, Xiao Mo also cut a pair of white trousers into a big pants shape, which finally preliminarily solved the problem of underwear.
The restaurant under Xiao Mo's plate is now an empty house, but it is very clean and looks very comfortable.
As for the slave market, the children were also sent over early.
Xiao Mo arranged the children in the room in the backyard of the restaurant, the backyard of this restaurant is very large, there are many yards in the house, and there is a small garden, it is enough to arrange these children. What's more, these children are all very obedient, which makes Xiao Mo very worry-free.
While eating steamed buns at this time, they looked at Xiao Mo with gratitude, as if they had never been treated so well.
When Xiao Mo was about to leave, these children looked at Xiao Mo, all of them blinked their eyes and showed reluctance, and they would ask if Xiao Mo would come again. But when they found out that Xiao Mo was going to live here in the future, and that they needed their help, the children were all excited.
Xiao Mo is also very concerned about these children. Such an attitude was in stark contrast to the slave market.
From birth to now, what these children want most is just to be able to eat, and if you want to say that their biggest dream is to meet a good master, not to be nice to them, as long as they are not abused.
Although Xiao Mo's concern for these children was just a very ordinary moral issue for Xiao Mo in the later generations, for these children, Xiao Mo was a hundred times better than the kind of master they dreamed of in their hearts.
This made Xiao Mo, the easy-going young master, leave a warm sunshine in the pure white hearts of these children.
Xiao Mo absolutely refuses to eat out now. Xiaoya's cooking talent is quite good, and both the taste and appearance of the dishes have been quite good these days.
However, since he had Xiaobai, a strange dog, half of Xiao Mo's time enjoying food has become the time to feed the dog.
After settling those children, Xiao Mo bought a lot of fresh mutton on the way back, and the class really spent a lot of copper. Xiao Mo really couldn't stand the fishy smell of this raw mutton, but Xiaobai was very satisfied with this raw mutton.
Sixi, the two stunned people, seem to have learned smartly recently, and they came to pick up Xiao Mo after stepping on the meal. It's indispensable to have a beautiful meal.
In Sixi's eyes, this Young Master Xiao's temper is really good, although his own young master is also good, but to be honest, he is not as powerful as this Young Master Xiao! Just look at the food that Xiaoya cooks, and it's very telling.
Xiao Mo, who got into the carriage, still didn't understand what Wang Zhanpeng thought, and he had to go to the Qinglou to solve the good things, and I have to say that this is really high.
This Mingfeng Pavilion seems to be quite far away from Xiao Mo, and Sixi actually used a carriage this time, not an ox cart.
To be honest, Xiao Mo still likes to ride an ox cart, which is very stable and comfortable. However, the carriage was indeed quite fast, and it reached its destination in half an hour.
Xiao Mo, who got out of the carriage, couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the situation in front of him, the Mingfeng Pavilion in front of him was a little unexpected by Xiao Mo. There is no other building around, just standing quietly in that secluded place with beautiful scenery! It's completely the opposite of what Xiao Mo saw when he watched TV before.
This Mingfeng Pavilion is located next to the river in the upper reaches of the Yi River, and there are no other buildings around, which is very abrupt and conspicuous. And the architectural style of this Mingfeng Pavilion is very antique, there are four floors, the four corners of each floor, the cornices are high up. Except for the fourth floor, a fist-sized brass bell hung from each cornice on every other floor.
On the four-cornered cornices of the fourth floor, there are four gilded phoenixes of different shapes and shining gold, each of which holds a golden bell in its mouth.
When he got closer, Xiao Mo found that what was even more peculiar was that there was no plaque in this Mingfeng Pavilion, and there were no words in Mingfeng Pavilion on the door.
In its place, there is a picture of a flying phoenix composed of gilded petals.
Sixi saw Xiao Mo looking at the flying phoenix picture with a curious face, knowing that this young master Xiao had never been here, so he explained on the side: "Young Master Xiao, these gold-plated petals are all gold-plated peonies obtained from the singing drum and picking flowers, and the gold-plated petals that make up the flying phoenix picture of Mingfeng Pavilion are all gold-plated peonies obtained from the best poems made by the first talents in the past, and they will never use the rest. This flying phoenix picture is also a famous scene in Luodu, every time the drum is beaten and the flowers are picked, this flying phoenix picture will become larger. “
When Xiao Mo heard this, he unconsciously smacked his lips when he looked at the really small flying phoenix picture in front of him.
This gold-plated peony is not really as big as a peony, it is a pocket version of the handicraft, a leaf is small and pitiful, but at a glance this flying phoenix picture in front of me I know that it takes a lot of gold-plated peonies to make it, so this flying phoenix picture is a little powerful! What's more, people still only take the best results of the first talent of each session of Mingfeng Pavilion to compose this flying phoenix map.
Xiao Mo couldn't help but sigh, he deserved to be the first of the four major courtyards in the past, and this bearing was different.
After Sixi finished explaining, he went to stop the carriage, and Xiao Mo naturally had to wait first.
However, before Xiao Mo entered the door, a beautiful maid greeted him, and she gave a salute and said with a smile: "I don't know if this son came alone or to the appointment?"
Xiao Mo was also a little strange when he heard this, why did there be a business person who didn't welcome the guests in first, but blocked the door to interrogate some if he didn't get it, so he asked with a smile: "Could it be that there is anything special about this?"
The beautiful maid replied with a smile: "If the son comes to the appointment, the slave will naturally lead the son to the place of the appointment." If Childe comes alone, then Childe needs to show the slave maid Childe's flying phoenix feathers. so that the maidservant knows how many floors to take her son. However, if Gongzi only stays on the first floor of Mingfeng Pavilion, then naturally there are no requirements, and he can enter now. “
Xiao Mo became even more curious when he heard this, and continued: "Flying Phoenix Feather? What is it? I really don't have that. Could it be that this floor is also exquisite? “
The beautiful maid smiled and said, "It seems that the son is coming to Mingfeng Pavilion for the first time, so the slave will tell the son in detail."
On the first floor of Mingfeng Pavilion, all kinds of people in the world can enter.
On the second floor of Mingfeng Pavilion, talented literati can enter, the first time you come only need to make a poem, no matter what the poem is, you can get a white feather, and then come to Mingfeng Pavilion in the future, you only need to show the flying phoenix feather. Of course, there are some differences. Some famous talented literati can enter the second-floor private room and get a bronze feather.
As for the third floor of the Mingfeng Pavilion, non-nobles are not allowed to enter, and those who enter can get a silver feather. Luodu or the rest of the Great Sui, or Nan Chen, a very famous talented literati, can also enter the three-story private room and get a golden feather. Of course, some powerful people can also enter the three-story private room. “
After hearing this, Xiao Mo couldn't help but secretly praise, this Mingfeng Pavilion really has a set, just this kind of identity system of business methods, it is enough to make many people rush to it, vanity is such a thing, as long as it is a person, it will not be without.
However, Xiao Mo is also very strange, why didn't this maid continue to talk about the third layer, but what about the fourth layer!? Why is there no mention of what kind of identity is required to enter. So Xiao Mo then asked, "I don't know what kind of person can enter this fourth layer?"
The beautiful maid was obviously stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then said with a smile: "Childe, you are really good at laughing!" This fourth floor is now the boudoir of everyone in Yu'er, and unless it is a guest of everyone in Yu'er, they are not allowed to enter. The fourth floor of our Mingfeng Pavilion has not been set foot by a man for twenty years. This boy should not have crooked thoughts. “
Xiao Mo couldn't help but curse in his heart, I damn it, it turns out that this one is even more ruthless. No wonder this Mingfeng Pavilion is so famous. As long as it's a man, who doesn't want to sit on fame, fortune and beauty. Who doesn't have a heart to conquer difficulties!
If anyone can enter the fourth floor of Mingfeng Pavilion, wouldn't they immediately be the spokesperson of the most capable man?
