Chapter 148: New Stores
"Therefore, it is not necessarily a blessing for a person to be able to marry so many wives and concubines, he has to deal with a lot of messy housework, and he wastes a lot of energy."
"Wan Jianzhong's wife in charge will definitely not be an ordinary person, just the broad mind comparable to the territory of the Apocalypse Dynasty is not comparable to ordinary people."
"That's right." Sun Chen thought so.
……
After the Chinese New Year, the weather is getting warmer day by day, and by March, everything has recovered, and everywhere is full of life.
The time has come for Sun Chen to accept his studies.
The children's birth test was held in the county, and Sun Chen moved here half a month in advance.
Yes, not 'come' but 'move'.
Originally, Sun Chen planned to come over alone, just go home directly after the exam, but the family was not at ease, and everyone was clamoring to come over and have a look. Especially Chu Chengfeng, his reason is even stronger: "I have taught you for so long, you must always accept the results as soon as possible, right?" ”
"And me, brother, I want to know the first time you become a showman." The second girl spoke confidently.
"And me, and me." Fennel looked at Sun Chen with big watery eyes.
"Ah Chen, I haven't seen the Tong Sheng test yet." Yang Shuping also made a faint sound.
Well, just bring it all.
Sun Chen thought that he was also preparing to open a store in the county, so he simply came over early to find a good place.
The handling of trivial matters is left to the second girl, and Sun Chen can still be a leisurely shopkeeper.
As for the shop in Taikang Town, it has been fully handed over to his second uncle Li Hanlin and cousin Li Yicong to be in charge, and Shen Bo and his son left him to help, and Sun Chen was very relieved to have them there. The Niu clan was brought to the county seat of Youlan to take care of their diet and daily life.
Six shops in a downtown area, plus two courtyards in the back, cost Sun Chen more than 2,000 taels of silver. In addition, when applying for the deed and shop license, he also invited Wan Jianzhong, the head of the housing intermediary Wanyou Commercial Bank, to have a thank-you dinner of more than 300 taels of silver, and 3,000 taels of silver will be enough.
However, Sun Chen felt that the money was well spent. The houses are in an excellent location, surrounded by high-end consumption places such as silver buildings, restaurants, and inns, and the flow of people is also the highest in the entire Youlan County. When he invited Wan Jianzhong to dinner, he also brought many well-known figures in Youlan County, so that Sun Chen, a 'redneck' with no foundation, entered the upper class of Youlan County as quickly as possible.
Because there is already a set of successful operation processes in front of him, Sun Chen's new store is opening very smoothly. He took a unique approach to integrate the two shops of Beauty Fang and Luo Yifang to make it look similar to the image design studio in modern society, and also gave the new store a very literary name - Pujia Pavilion.
"The leaves are pale, the white dew is frost, the so-called Yi people, on the water side. Ah Chen, it seems that your books during this period of time have not been read in vain, and you can even choose a name so stylishly. Liu Mingxuan looked at Sun Chen's new shop with a look of appreciation.
"Of course," Sun Chen agreed quite proudly, "Don't look at who we are, don't say it's an export chapter, which page of those books is at your fingertips, isn't it trivial to take such a name?" ”
"So?" Liu Mingxuan raised his eyebrows, "Why don't you write a poem on the spot for me to taste and taste?" It also allows ordinary people like me to see the demeanor of Sun Dacai, who won the special award of the Star Winning Tower? ”
"Uh...... Forget it! Sun Chen admitted that he really didn't want to plagiarize other people's poems, which made him very uncomfortable. But with his own literary talent, there is still a lot of heat to make poems of the same level as theirs.
"Hahaha, why are you like this? As soon as I say that I want you to compose a poem, it's like asking for your life, I see you, but I'm too lazy to use my brain, and it's not that I can't write it~"
Sun Chenxin said that I really let you give you the point, I really don't have that ability! Thinking of this, he couldn't help but regret his impulsiveness that night. Although it was quite happy to win that Han Xudong at the time, the sequelae it brought were too wide and too long.
……
On the day of the opening of Pujia Pavilion, Sun Chen invited Wan Jianzhong, Liu Mingxuan, and a few well-known people from Youlan County to come over and help cut the ribbon, and invited them to have a big meal at Chunlan Restaurant.
Chunlan Restaurant is the property of Wanyou Commercial Bank, and the name of Wan Jianzhong's wife is *** Lan, so all the industries belonging to Wanyou Commercial Bank in Yulan County are 'Chunlan'. Chunlan Restaurant, Chunlan Silver Building, Chunlan Pastry, Chunlan Inn, etc.
Looking at the signboard of the restaurant, Sun Chen suddenly had a whim, if two of Wan Jianzhong's concubines had their hometowns in the same place, then whose name would the property there be named after?
"What are you smirking at here?" Liu Mingxuan saw Sun Chen smirking there, and hit him on the head with the folding fan in his hand.
"Hehe, nothing."
"Then go inside, there are a few more people who want to talk to you!"
Originally, Liu Mingxuan was most annoyed by such entertainment, but for Sun Chen, he accompanied him from beginning to end, and Sun Chen's gratitude in his heart was beyond words.
Everyone knew his identity, and they didn't mention the name of the county lord during the banquet, but they looked down on Sun Chen, a hillbilly who had no background at all, but had a personal relationship with Wanyou Commercial Bank and the county princess.
Because of the escort of the two bigwigs, Wan Jianzhong and Liu Mingxuan, the business of Pujia Pavilion has been carried out smoothly like never before, and the entire Youlan County knows about this place.
Especially those pampered ladies, their usual pastime is how to dress themselves up beautifully. Usually, except for a few close friends, they are just behind closed doors and grow savagely. It is possible to dress appropriately and good-looking without understanding, and it is possible to be miserable without understanding.
Suddenly, there was such a place to teach them how to dress up, which made them feel very novel. There are those who have the courage to try, and after going out, they have changed greatly, bringing more customers, and more and more people are following.
However, Sun Chen didn't have the heart to care about these anymore, his main task now was to prepare for the Tongsheng test.
The letter had already been opened before coming to the county, and Sun Chen still remembered the surprise and doubts on his face when he went back to Linjia Village to find Huang Xiucai to open the letter.
"I knew from when you were a kid that you were going to have a great future." Huang Xiucai squinted his eyes and looked at Sun Chen and encouraged.
Sun Chen studied with Huang Xiucai for two years when he was a child. At that time, his mother was still alive, and he had plenty of time to attend school every day. Because he knew that the opportunity to study was not easy to come by, Sun Chen worked very hard. Huang Xiucai was also very satisfied with Sun Chen at that time, and bluntly said that he would be the youngest among the scholars who were admitted to Xiucai in Linjia Village.
