Chapter 42: A Substitute for a Horse
"It's here so soon." Liu Mengli was a little happy in the carriage, in the past, it took half a day to get to Xishi on the bluestone road, but now it seems that it will take half an hour to walk on this cement road.
She opened the dark curtain first, and said to Xu Yang respectfully: "Lord Wanfu, the bicycle store has arrived, please get off the bike." ā
Xu Yang didn't react for a while, why did he even change his name when he went out.
Liu Mengli said with a serious face: "In the past, the lord had no official position, and people could just call him by his name, but now the lord is a serious man from Youzhou County, and he can't be shabby when he goes out, and he can't call his name, the honor guard has been arranged, and he asked the lord to get off." ā
Now Xu Yang understood, feeling that he was made a baron, and immediately became a person with status, he only knew that there was his own fief of 300 households in the east of Youzhou by the sea, and now he didn't expect to need some honor guards when he went out.
He was still a little uncomfortable.
But Liu Mengli is familiar with doing this, how can the old lady of the Liu family say that he is also a five-grade official, a dignified official, and he is also very particular about pomp and circumstance when he goes out, Liu Mengli has been exposed to it since he was a child, and he is also very clear.
Stepping on a kneeling little guy got off the carriage, two maids stood on both sides of Xu Yang, Xu Yang looked at the bicycle shop he opened, only to see that this store is very large, and the street side of the later generations of large household appliances store about the same size, more than four zhang wide storefront, about ten meters, inside is a big house, there are all kinds of bicycles in the glass counter, from the outside you can see the luxury of the house, like the car show of later generations.
Directly above the storefront, a big advertising logo, several bluestone carved into large characters, 'Youzhou Bicycle Shop', simple atmosphere, these words are worth 300 yuan worth a bottle of Datang Kouzi Cellar from the most famous Mr. Yunyi in Youzhou.
"Not bad, not bad." Xu Yang looked at this masterpiece created by his own arrangement and nodded proudly.
Flicked the green jade on his waist, straddled the cirrus boots, and walked towards the house.
Inside the house, more than a dozen brightly dressed 'car' ladies were already eager to try, and now the leading squad leader was giving them final guidance.
"When the guests come in, they must maintain a ceremonial posture, require the whole person to go up, and not have too much shaking, just like when you model training, you must show a standard smile when you speak, showing seven teeth, the lord has ordered, the teeth must be brushed white, the yellow teeth are to be driven out of the store, now it is better to rinse your mouth with salt water first, and clean your teeth with soaphorns, the lord said, after a while, the toothbrush will be invented, and someone will send it when the time comes, three times a day, keep your breath fresh, understand?"
"Understood." The girls all nodded in unison, they were all smart maids selected from everyone, and they were trained by Xu Yang in Liu's house for more than a month, and the model girls who Xu Yang often trained in the yard at that time were them.
"Okay, the people who come to buy the car in a while are all distinguished customers, and they all have to be served, the lord said, you can get a consistent commission when you sell a bicycle, understand?"
"Understood!" Once it was about money, these maids finally revealed the essence of a rich slave, and their eyes turned into copper coins.
The posture is getting more and more upright, and the close-fitting clothes on the body are getting tighter and tighter, and it is not an exaggeration to convex and backward.
"Okay, girls, all stand in their places, ready to open the door to welcome customers" Before Miss Stilt finished speaking, she saw Xu Yang, who was dressed in brocade clothes and jade robes, standing in the store and looking around.
"Sir! ~" This shout is sweeter than dense, as if it can crispen people's hearts.
Uh-Xu Yang stood next to a bicycle placed on the glass counter with a black line, and the body of the squad leader and Miss Pounced up, Xu Yang's forehead oozed dense beads of sweat, and his face was full of embarrassment.
Sure enough, Xu Yang instantly felt a dark energy on his lower back, "Oh~" A bone-eroding sound came out of Xu Yang's throat, startling the squad leader who pounced.
She turned her head to look, and saw a woman in pink standing behind Xu Yang with a gloomy face, and one hand was stretched into the sleeve under Xu Yang's armpit, not knowing what she was doing.
"Sir, haven't you told your concubine who this is?" Liu Mengli looked at Xu Yang with a smile on her face, but the murderous aura on her face couldn't be erased, and she even used the word concubine, just to give this fox spirit a few colors.
Xu Yang can't say his bitterness now, because these women are all sixteen or seventeen years old, and his adults in their twenties generally never meet them in general, and they are generally coaxed with good words, but this also just developed Liu Mengli's cruel behavior of 'no one in his eyes'.
"Mengli, this is the Zhao lady introduced by the, and now she is appointed as the squad leader of the car sales lady to manage the sales of cars, don't get me wrong." Xu Yang said calmly, his clear eyes did not have a trace of impurities.
Liu Mengli wanted to see something from Xu Yang's eyes, but in the end she quickly gave up, Xu Yang's bad female character is very strong, although he likes to see beautiful women, but he will never take it for himself, in his own words, it is the eye of appreciation, God knows if his eye of appreciation is covetous and voyeuristic.
Liu Mengli gave her hand angrily and followed Xu Yang's side, as if she was afraid that the fox spirits in this store would abduct her brother Xu Yang.
Xu Yang is very much like an inspection by the leaders of later generations, and he walked around the store at random, surrounded by a group of young women in uniform and uniforms, this feeling is very refreshing, no wonder those guys in later generations like to be leaders so much.
Xu Yang looked east and west, the ceiling was hung with crystal lamps made of glass, and the whole room was brightly lit, under this light, the bicycles in the glass case seemed to be covered with a layer of gold, looking extremely luxurious.
The five women at the checkout had already stood there respectfully, waiting for the guests to come in, and Xu Yang was very excited when he thought that his first bicycle shop in Datang was about to open.
A few days ago, the news of the opening of the Liu family's bicycle shop at noon today was made into an invitation and sent to the nobles of the family in Youzhou City, which has long been famous in the northeast instead of horses, which has become the longest topic of discussion among the nobles.
"Zhao, what time is it?" Xu Yang was a little impatient.
"Back to my lord, it's just now."
"It's just the right time" Xu Yang was a little disappointed, time passed so slowly.
There are already a lot of people outside the bicycle shop next to the West Market in Youzhou, and from time to time someone looks into the store to see what kind of novelty it is.
"Let one go, let one go." A strong man in a carriage huddled in the crowd.
The curtain of the car was opened, and I saw a handsome young man with oily hair and pink face poking his head out of the car and said, "Zhang Er, hurry up to the bicycle shop!" Childe, I'm afraid I won't be able to buy it if I'm late, but my brothers all set off early in the morning! ā
The strong man driving in front of him looked embarrassed and said, "Childe, I don't know why this West Market is so congested today, there are crowds of people in front, and the streets are already crowded." ā
When the powder-faced Xiaosheng heard this, he said angrily: "You may feel the bicycle shop before noon?!" ā
"The villain is estimated to be hanging, and now it is almost noon, and the carriage is estimated to be difficult to move an inch." The strong man looked frightened.
"Then don't worry about the carriage for now, take Childe and me to the bicycle shop!" The pink-faced boy was also a decisive master, and immediately announced that he would abandon the car and let the driver take him to the bicycle shop on West Market Second Street on foot.
"Okay! Childe, follow me. With that, he jumped out of the car, pulled away the people who were in the way next to him, and squeezed towards the bicycle shop with his son
The sun is three poles, and the noon sun spreads throughout Youzhou City, with a hint of dryness and heat.
Xu Yang looked at a large string of homemade firecrackers hanging on the high platform over there with satisfaction, and said to Liu Qi beside him: "Seven, go and light the firecrackers, pay attention to be careful, and don't let the people around you get too close." ā
Liu Qi smiled and nodded seriously, the firecrackers made by Childe can be described as earth-shattering thunder, from the beginning of being scared to the point of urine, to now like a toy, Liu Qi really wants to see what other people look like.
Everyone listened to Xu Yang's construction yƬ, and spread out in front of the bicycle shop, forming a circle, looking at the long list of red things hanging on the high platform.
I saw Liu Qi climb to the high platform in two steps, holding a fire fold in his hand, and "clicked" to ignite the long string of fuses.
Then he immediately flew down, hid in the extreme distance and covered his ears, and everyone didn't know why.
At this time, the sound of crackling resounded through the heavens and the earth.
