Chapter 24: A Feast (I)

"Lao Tzu is really a talent." Ziyou walked down the street with the little rice, remembering the poem he had recited.

Just like the earlier half of the poem, Ziyou still can't be sure whether this poem was written by himself or the result of reciting poems as a child, but either way...... can be incorporated into the collection of Ziyou's poems, Ziyou thought shamelessly.

If you want to talk about the meaning of the poem, Ziyou himself doesn't understand, and he doesn't need to understand, poetry is such a thing, the artistic conception is there, and it is very cool to read it, it is enough, for example, when talking to Zhao Yiyi, it is most suitable to add a poem to it.

And then...... There is no then, as for whether that girl can be yelled at by her own talent, whatever.

……

At this time, it is almost twilight, and there are still many people on the streets, doing their last busy work in front of the night that fills the entire Selangor city.

On both sides of the road, there are a variety of shops, which are very different from the previous ones, and there are many Azusa tours that are new to you, such as blacksmith shops, such as dart boards, and recently there is a large and novel market.

The market is filled with neighing horses and dust, the shouts of vendors and the counter-offers of buyers.

It is a horse market, equivalent to the car sales company in the previous life, and only people with a certain amount of financial resources can enter and exit the horse market, buy the horses they need, if the modern 4S concept is applied to the horse market, I don't know what kind of repercussions will be.

Ziyou walked and looked, on the one hand, because of curiosity, on the other hand, he was also looking for a place that was suspected of being in a hotel, the hotel must be of high grade, and the ordinary ones were not eye-catching, and Ziyou still had about nine taels of silver on his body...... Quite with nine thousand dollars, eat a meal...... It should be no longer a problem.

Suddenly, Azusa stopped at the door of a shop, not because it was a hotel...... Instead, the sign of the store reads...... Bu Yi Xuan ...... Three big words.

"Bu Yixuan......" Ziyou said.

This is not Boss Zhao's mouth open...... Bu Yixuan, at that time, Boss Zhao gritted his teeth at this Bu Yixuan, as if he had some deep hatred.

Now seeing the Bu Yixuan deity, it makes Ziyou pay extra attention, well, just pay attention.

"The clearance sale, the original 60 Wen Tsing Yi cheongsam, now only 40 Wen, the original 80 Wen cotton clothes and cotton pants...... Now it's only 65 Wen, don't miss it when you pass by, vomit blood and sell it...... Big Sale! ”

At the entrance of Buyixuan, a young man shouted at the crowd coming and going on the street, and there were constantly customers coming in and out of Buyixuan, in an endless stream...... Apparently the business is quite prosperous.

Bu Yixuan is also a ready-to-wear store, and Zhao's ready-to-wear is in competition with each other, but if the two are compared with each other, you will find that the business of this store is simply boundless, and it is no wonder that Boss Zhao looks ugly when he mentions Bu Yixuan.

"Bu Yixuan's clothes...... Just a few dozen pennies? Ziyou listened to the little guy's shouts and was suddenly surprised.

In Zhao Yiyi's house before, the average cost of making a dress was more than 100 yuan, but the clothes in this store were so cheap that they were about to reach the level of cheap clothes in a certain treasure.

The clothes are sold so cheaply, no wonder the business is so prosperous, squeezing Zhao's ready-to-wear clothes to the point that even the living space is almost gone. They all had to rent out the dowry house to supplement the family...... No, the monthly rent of two pennies can supplement a woolen family?

Why are Bu Yixuan's clothes so cheap? Could it be that Zhao Yiyi blackened Ziyou? This is basically impossible, just because she dares to rent a house to Ziyou for two pennies, Zhao Yiyi can't be that kind of profiteer.

So the problem can only be with Bu Yixuan.

The first possibility is that Bu Yi Xuan will control the cost, so that the cost of making their clothes is much lower than that of other ready-to-wear stores.

The second possibility is that Bu Yi Xuan is dumping the clothing market in Selangor, crushing other ready-to-wear stores by self-harm, and then completely dominating the entire clothing industry in Selangor.

But here's the problem...... Will this kind of commercial method that can only appear in modern society appear in ancient times...... That's really a question.

It remains to be seen what kind of possibility it is, but of course Ziyou has no intention of observing.

In fact, the gains and losses of the Zhao family's ready-to-wear have little to do with him, and he Ziyou is not so idle to help the Zhao family come up with ideas to improve their current situation, which has no direct interest in Ziyou.

Ziyou doesn't have any ideas at the moment, even if he does, tell them that it's a question of whether they can accept it, so Ziyou doesn't plan to wade into this troubled water, or do what he wants to do, it's enough.

So Ren Bu Yixuan was crazy, Ziyou still took the small rice and continued to look for the hotel.

Not long after, a very delicate small building appeared in front of me, with red bricks and green tiles, and an antique taste.

At first glance, it is quite a classy place.

Although the name "Drunken Moon Building" is full of commotion and vague.

Ziyou is still determined by the smell of food coming from the building, and the people holding chopsticks...... This is a restaurant.

The place where Azusa is looking.

As soon as Ziyou stopped with the small rice, a man in a green shirt and a small hat trotted over with a smile.

"Guest officer...... How many are you? Xiao Erdao saw a towel hanging on each of his shoulders, a wet towel, and a dry towel.

As he spoke, he directly picked up the dry towel on his shoulder and pulled it towards Ziyou.

Zi You had never seen this posture, even if he had always boasted of being calm, he couldn't help but be startled. "Your ...... What are you doing? ”

Xiao Er was stunned, looked at the towel in his hand, looked at Ziyou again, and then smiled with relief. "It's the first time for the guest officer, this is the rule of the store, you have to help the guest officer shake off the dust before entering the store...... It's called dust washing."

Xiao Er explained briefly.

It turns out that in ancient times, many people who stayed in the hotel were mostly outsiders, so the hotel simply helped those travelers shake off the dust with dry towels before the guest officers entered the door, and over time it formed a hotel etiquette with dust washing as the situation.

As for the other wet towel, it is used to wipe the table.

This is a necessary ritual before entering the door.

Even sometimes, some people just stay in front of the hotel for a while, there will be a shopkeeper to wash the dust for them, if the person who is washed is thin-skinned, may have to enter the store to spend a day or two.

It's also a way to attract customers.

After hearing this, Ziyou coughed lightly. "You don't have to explain so much, I naturally know this, I see that your towel is not very clean, so the more you shake it, the dirtier it will be."

Xiao Er was startled, and looked down to check the towel in his hand, but the gray towel ...... The color is the same, and it's very clean.

"Guest officer, this towel is freshly dried, and it is very clean."

"That's not necessarily, how many people have shaken your towel, and I don't know how many bacteria there are in it, but you can't see it with the naked eye."

Ziyou pretended to be a deep voice, and Xiao Er, who listened, was stunned, what bacteria, there are so many, it can't be seen by the naked eye, how did he see it, Xiao Er's belly said, but it was not easy to ask.

"Anyway, this etiquette is skipped, I'm here to eat."

These are just trivial things, dispensable, since it is certain that this guest officer is entering the store to consume, then you must greet him with a smile.

Xiao Er bowed down and stretched out his hand. "Please ...... inside the guest officer"

This bow is simply bowed to the ancestor's house, it is a hundred and twenty degrees, if the hotel door in the previous life can learn this little two's attitude towards work...... Why not worry about a herniated disc in the waist?

Ziyou was amazed, pulled the small rice, and walked towards the hotel.

……

The business of this hotel is also good, Ziyou and Xiaomifan have to sit in the corner, but this restaurant is transparent from north to south, and the lighting is good, but it is not too stuffy.

The menu is pasted on the wall in black and red letters, and there is one not far from Azusa You.

Ziyou briefly glanced at the menu and asked for the small rice opposite. "Little rice, if you want to eat something, just say ......"

Xiao Fan heard Ziyou ask what he wanted to eat, and after thinking about it, he picked up Ziyou's wrist, and put his little finger in Ziyou's hand as before...... Wrote.

Write in the air on your hands, unless the strokes are simple, if they are slightly more complicated...... It's hard to feel it very clearly with the sense of touch.

So the little rice seems to have been written many times in Ziyou's palm, and Ziyou doesn't understand it and is too lazy to understand.

There are so many dishes in this hotel, and I ordered a few big meats, I don't believe there are no dishes she likes to eat!

"Want beef? Okay, okay, Xiao Er cut half a catty of beef! ”
