Chapter Forty-Nine: The Opening of Tianyi Pavilion
After Yaru went back, she told Linlang about this cooperation. After that, I need to go out of the house often, and there is an old lady and Li in the house. After a long time, it is inevitable that it will be true. Going out in the name of taking care of business is okay once or twice, but it's not okay to go out all the time. So she had to think of a long-term approach.
Linlang readjusted the gatehouse and asked Guan Bo to replace the back door of the mansion with his old family Cui Bo. Cui Bo used to be the companion of the county lord of Changxing and was a trustworthy person.
After breakfast, Yaru happily took the girl out of the back door. When she came back yesterday, she wrote a letter to her father, asking him to help find a shopkeeper. During this period of time, she wants to renovate the restaurant.
When she arrived at the hotel, Yaru told the shopkeeper about her design plan for the renovation of the hotel.
The shopkeeper was surprised when he heard this, he didn't expect Yaru to have such a delicate mind.
Yaru actually got the modern hotel set here. In her sketch of the design, she replaced the bulky round tables in the lobby that could seat several people with small rectangular tables that could seat four people, which fully reduced the waste of space. If there are many people, you can also put two rectangles into one, which can seat eight people. The second floor is still in the form of a private room. The door was remodeled and made into a glass cabinet in the style of dishes in the current way, which increased the intuitive sensibility of the dishes and stimulated customers' desire to buy. Yaru is also planning to slowly transform the other restaurants she manages into this style.
The shopkeeper praised again and again. Such a transformation is novel and practical. The two of them discussed some more details.
The shopkeeper said that Mrs. Yang will not leave until next month, and he can stay to help during this period of time, and he will leave when Yaru finds a new shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper has been in the capital for so many years, and he also has some connections, so he is responsible for finding someone to renovate the restaurant, and then open it after the renovation is completed.
In fact, it is not a big change, the main thing is to order some new tables and chairs, build a new cabinet, and repaint the hotel from the inside out, and even the plaque has been rewritten. A few days later, a brand new Tianyi Pavilion restaurant was released.
At the same time as the closure and renovation, Yaru posted a notice in the most conspicuous place next to the restaurant, to the effect that the restaurant needs to be closed for half a month because of the change of owner. The opening time has been announced, and I hope you will come by then. On the day of opening, the restaurant has entertainment activities and so on.
Linlang sent some invitations to relatives and friends in the name of the county king's mansion.
The shopkeeper that Guan Hou Ye was looking for also arrived. This is a young man of twenty-five or sixteen years old, named Guan Xin.
Guan Xin has been taking care of the store for Guan Houye, and he is a person he trusts very much.
To say that Guan Yuanhe really loves Yaru's little daughter, he is really willing to give everything.
On the day of its opening, the entrance of the restaurant was full of people. People want to see who owns the best hotel in the capital.
After a while, I saw Linlang coming out of the restaurant with Yaru.
Linlang's female soldiers also deliberately changed into short clothes today, and they followed behind Linlang.
In this way, even people in the capital who don't know Linlang can guess it, isn't this the princess of the county? In the entire capital, only the princess of the county who came back from the battlefield was escorted by female soldiers.
People began to whisper: "I still wonder who can eat the first restaurant in the capital, it turned out that it was bought by the county king's mansion." ”
Someone else said: "I heard that after the original Boss Yang passed away, he left behind his wife and a pair of underage children." If it is not sold, it will be difficult for this restaurant to survive. I heard that Boss Yang's cousins are all eating and drinking here for nothing, and they don't give money. Ah, of the orphans and widows. It's better to sell it for some silver taels. This restaurant is worth a lot of money, right?"
"That's for sure, you don't look at the location of this restaurant, this is a golden place. This restaurant can't be changed to several restaurants. People were talking.
At this time, Guan Xin stood at the front, and he began to speak: "Today is the first day of the opening of our Tianyi Pavilion, and everyone is welcome to come to this restaurant." In order to thank everyone for coming, the princess and princess of our family decided to get a 70% discount on meals and free drinks today. If you want to eat, you are welcome to enter the restaurant. ”
Everyone is excited, the drinks are free, I haven't heard of anyone's restaurant opening with free drinks, so don't do anything yet. Originally, there were many people here who came for the first day of opening of Tianyi Pavilion. So people pushed each other into the restaurant.
A variety of female soldiers stared at our group, and their mission today was to prevent the younger ones from causing trouble.
Guan Yunhe father and son, Ling Yuanhui Li, two uncles and several cousins and sisters-in-law of the Ping Wangfu all came. Cui Ji came today, and Ah Ning was a little uncomfortable today and didn't come. There are also a few friends who received invitations and brought their families to congratulate.
Linlang and Yaru entertained female guests, and Ling Yuanhui consciously entertained male guests with Cui Ji. Relatives and friends were allowed to live in private rooms on the second floor.
Everyone is busy. I only heard someone say: "I heard that this Tianyi Pavilion has a new boss today, so I came over to see who bought Tianyi Pavilion, it turned out to be the county king's mansion, congratulations." "It turned out that King An had arrived.
The news of Tianyi Pavilion was told to him by Ling Yuanhui. King An is ready to come today. He took out a red gold statue of the God of Wealth, which was as tall as the palm of an adult man, and was very delicate.
Linlang hurriedly said: "King An, we are very grateful for your come, but your gift is too valuable." You see....."
Before Linlang finished speaking, King An's face was a little unhappy: "What's the matter, don't you accept other people's gifts?"
Ling Yuanhui hurriedly went up and accepted it: "King Xie An, please come inside." As he spoke, he personally invited King An into a private room.
Linlang looked at their backs thoughtfully. King Ling had mentioned to Linlang about the relationship between Ling Yuanhui and King An's mother family before he set out on the expedition, and the king of the county had deep worries about this second brother in his heart.
Yaru also saw this scene, she walked to Linlang's side and asked softly, "Mother, is there anything wrong?"
Linlang retracted her gaze and whispered back to Yaru: "We'll talk about it when we go back." Let's treat the guests first. ”
Those private rooms were already full, so Ling Yuanhui placed King An alone in a private room. After settling in, he went to invite someone to accompany King An in person, and he left alone.
In the evening, he took stock of the day's accounts, and even though the drinks were free and the meals were discounted today, he made a net profit of one hundred taels of silver that day. Both Linlang and Yaru were delighted.
The two of them talked about King An's congratulations today.
Linlang said: "Your father said that your second uncle and King An's uncle are very close, and your second uncle's current position is not what your father found." There should be the handiwork of King An behind this. ”
Aru said in surprise: "That is. King An has already walked with his second uncle?"
"Probably yes. Their father and son are in danger of their lives at any time on the battlefield, and if we don't defend them in the rear, maybe one day they won't even have a way out. So we'll both have to pay attention in the future. Although we are women, we can only do this on our own now. Linlang said contemplatively.
Yaru thought for a while and said: "Do you think this is good, the restaurant is a place where dignitaries and nobles often gather, especially a big restaurant like Tianyi Pavilion, and it is also the place where the news spreads the fastest." Set up some eyeliner in our restaurants and restaurants first. Install some people we trust and set up a message channel. ”
Linlang thought for a while and said, "I think it's okay, we can't go to the battlefield, but we can do what we can for them in the rear." The best way is to find out the news from all aspects of the capital, and maybe we can help them in the future. ”
The two talked for a long time about this matter, how to operate, who to use, and a series of questions.
