Chapter 288: The emperor visits the supermarket
"The emperor is out on patrol, and the front is avoided!"
At the gate of the Yamen Gate in Shimen Town, two vertical ironclad elite soldiers opened the way, escorting several sedan chairs behind.
The sedan chair is hollowed out in all directions, and the sedan curtain is lifted, so that the people can see the people sitting in the sedan chair.
"That's the emperor, what a talent!" The passers-by on the side were lucky enough to see the emperor's appearance, and they couldn't help but look straight in the eyes.
That graceful and luxurious posture is only available to people in the palace!
"Hurry up, hurry up, and see where the emperor goes!" Every time the sedan chair walked, the people moved a little with it, and they all wanted to see where the emperor was going.
Shimen Town was originally small, and Chengjia Department Store was not far from the Yamen of Shimen Town, and the group had walked less than two teas, and the buttocks were not yet hot, and the sedan chair stopped.
"Your Majesty, it's here", Xu Weimin came all the way, he was next to the sedan chair in the south wind, and he came to say goodbye as soon as he arrived at the destination.
"It's here?" Nanfeng Qi hasn't enjoyed accepting the love of the people, so it's here?
The sedan chair stopped, and all the royal relatives were helped out of the carriage, and the place where they stopped was a place like a shop on the side of the street.
The door of the shop was surrounded by elite soldiers, and there were people constantly coming in and out of the shop, and it seemed that business was good.
"What is this place?"
"Back to the emperor, this is the Cheng family department store, and it is also the largest shop in the town", Xu Weimin said, stretching out his hand to bring everyone into the shop.
At noon today, someone from the yamen came to tell Liu Dong that in the afternoon, distinguished guests from the capital would come to check on their shops and let them prepare to greet them.
Liu Dong didn't know what to look like to be ready, he just asked the staff in the store to dress up and cheer up, and they were more enthusiastic than usual.
"Hello, please put the baggage you carry in the locker", Wang Xiaojiu and Liu Nansheng were the first to see the distinguished guests.
When they saw the elite soldiers at the door, they were already too frightened to move, but where the duty was, Cheng Yangyang told them that they must remind all the guests who came in, in case they were inconvenient to buy things with their baggage.
"Presumptuous! How can the emperor's things be handed over to others at will!" Xu Weimin really wanted them to shut up, didn't he explain to the people in the store? Why haven't you seen it yet!
"Xiaomin should be damned!" Wang Xiaojiu and Liu Nansheng were so frightened that they knelt on the ground when he drank like this.
As soon as Liu Dong came down from the second floor, he saw that the door was full of people, led by a pale yellow robe, full of luxury, and followed by a group of extraordinary people, including the four princes!
It seems that the nobleman is here!
"Xiaomin to meet the emperor!" Liu Dong hurriedly ran from upstairs and knelt down in front of a group of nobles, "Your Majesty, it is Xiaomin who is not strict in discipline and has disturbed the emperor, and I ask the emperor to forgive me!"
"Shopkeeper Liu, what's the matter with you!" Xu Weimin asked him in a low voice, did he not receive the news from the Yamen!
"That's it, it's not in the capital, and I'm not being bothered, let's get up!"
He made such a high-profile patrol because he wanted to get close to the people's livelihood and win the favor of the people for himself, but now that there are so many people outside the shop, how can he deal with these small people.
"Don't thank you yet!"
"Emperor Xie!" Liu Dong took the two of them up, mentioned the aside, and handed over the introduction to Lord Xu, anyway, it was not the first time he had come to the store.
Everyone entered the shop, which was as big as a restaurant inn, and the shop was full of shelves for goods, and many strange things were neatly placed on the shelves.
When the customers in the store saw the group of noble people coming in, everyone automatically got out of the way, not daring to approach, and some directly put down the things they were going to buy and went out to watch the excitement like the onlookers.
"Lord Xu, this shop is quite chic!" Nanfeng Qi saw it, and couldn't help but praise it.
"Your Majesty, the lower officials have sent someone to clear the guests in the store, and the emperor and the ministers can rest assured. ”
"It's okay", Nanfeng Qi nodded, he didn't really want to squeeze together with these ordinary people, "Ministers, go and take a look!"
"Obey the order!"
The ministers, the ladies, and the maids behind him all walked towards various places in the store, and they were also very curious about the things in the store.
Nanfeng Qi was still followed by a few important courtiers in the court, and they followed him and walked around slowly.
"What is this?"
The first thing they saw was of course the food, fruit and vegetable area that the people needed most, the colorful colors, are they really vegetables?
In order to pursue beauty and arouse the guests' love for their vegetables, Cheng Yangyang arranged the vegetables on a row of shelves according to the colors of the rainbow, which can be seen as soon as you enter the door, which is heartwarming.
"Back to the emperor, this place is for selling vegetables. ”
Xu Weimin was very satisfied with this area for the first time, the colors of other things in the store were not as bright as this place, he wanted to see those fresh and tender dishes, and he wanted to buy the dishes back and cook them himself!
"Is this a dish?" Nanfeng Qi was slightly surprised, that row of rainbow-like things turned out to be vegetables!
"Who is that, you!" Xu Weimin wanted to introduce it to the emperor in person, but he found that there were some dishes that he really didn't know, so he pointed to Liu Meimei, who was in charge of this area.
"Come here, tell the emperor about the dishes here!"
Liu Meimei had already seen this group of nobles who came, although she was very nervous, she couldn't embarrass Boss Cheng and Cheng's Department Store!
She quietly clenched her fists, tried to show the smile on her face that usually greets guests, and stepped forward, "The people have seen the emperor!"
"Your Majesty, let the people introduce our vegetables to the emperor!" Liu Meimei is now in front of the shelf, introducing several people from left to right.
"Your Majesty, most of the fruits here are unique to our store, this red fruit is called tomatoes, which can be eaten raw or cooked, and this orange carrot is also a dish that can be eaten raw. ”
After Liu Meimei spoke, she found her usual feeling, and after two sentences, she was no longer so nervous.
"This yellow and green pepper, also called bell pepper, tastes slightly sweet but not spicy, very suitable for the elderly and children, the green is a small winter melon, we also have a large winter melon, and the purple is an eggplant. ”
"As for the blue vegetables, we haven't grown them yet, so we use blue hydrangeas instead, and the floral fragrance in the store is the specialty of our store. ”
Liu Meimei used the words that Cheng Yangyang taught her, even if there were no blue vegetables, it would not make people think that they were not good enough.
"The shelves on the opposite side are also colorful, but the types of vegetables are different. ”
"Oh, there's something different!" Nanfeng Qi originally thought that these vegetables were rare enough, but he didn't expect them to be there.
They made a detour to the opposite shelf, and Liu Meimei introduced them again.
