Chapter 3: The First Arrival in Stone Town (3)
She pursed her lips, coughed dryly, lowered her posture, and whispered contrivedly.
"I ...... I don't want the things left by the ancestors of the Su family to disappear like this, I think we can try hard, but if we can't find another way, are you right? ”
Liu Xing'er turned around and smiled wryly at everyone awkwardly.
She thought that Su Zhengdi would also think that she was whimsical and wanted to blame her, thinking about how she should face the Su family in the future, and wanted to squeeze two tears out to cover up, but heard Su Zhengdi say.
"Now that the words are out, naturally you have your idea, but you should tell everyone about it."
"Actually, I just thought........ Maybe our inn will have a booming business in the next few days. ”
"Xing, are you kidding everyone?"
Liu Xing'er didn't know how to explain, but with her hands behind her back, she walked around the inn, thinking if she could find some doorway in this inn, after all, her hands were empty, and her brain couldn't be used even if she was smart.
The attention of the Su family was on her, wondering if Liu Xing'er had a bad brain, and Su Zhengdi didn't ask again, just followed her.
Unconsciously, Liu Xing'er walked to the back kitchen, she looked at a few large jars in the courtyard, scraped off a thick layer of dust with her hands, and knocked it.
"It's wine."
Su Zhengdi nodded.
"There have been no customers in the past few months, these are all backlogs, and there is a lot of rice and dried vegetables in the back."
Liu Xing'er showed a hint of joy, thinking that the things she had calculated were finally a little eyebrows.
Liu Xing'er sped up her steps, there were ten bags of rice, all kinds of dried vegetables and pickles were about to become moldy if they were put down, as the saying goes, there is no endless road, with these things, she can show her skills in Stone Town, she suppressed the joy in her heart, and soon returned to the lobby, opened her mouth to shout "Uncle Su", thought about it and stopped her mouth in time, flattered and contrivedly shouted "Dad", and then returned to her normal tone.
"Let's roll up our sleeves and work, clean the side room when you should clean the wing, clean the back kitchen when you should tidy up the back kitchen, our guests will come to the door in the next two days."
The sanitary environment of this Fulai Inn is so poor, this is unbearable for her as a professional, the key is that she is now humble and contemptuous, and no one is convinced to move her mouth like this, where can she dare to have higher requirements.
She was just thinking about how to attract all the customers in Stone Town to her inn, and she didn't pay attention to the surprised eyes of the Su family at all, and was forced to ask Su Zhengdi to help her write a few words on the paper. Su Zhengdi was puzzled, but he still dipped his pen in ink.
"You say, I'll write it."
Liu Xinger asked: "How do other inns charge on weekdays?" ”
Brother Su raised his eyebrows, he had doubts in his heart, but he still answered unhurriedly.
"The upper class room is about 300 to 500 wen per person, the middle room is about 200 wen, and an inn like ours is generally 100 wen per person."
Liu Xing'er asked again: "What if two people share a room?" ”
Su Zhengdi replied: "It's also a hundred per person." ”
"Then let's come to the Fulai Inn with some new tricks, from today one person and one night for one hundred Wen, two people walking together for one hundred and fifty Wen, three people living in one hundred and eighty Wen, more than three people are fifty Wen for one person, rice and dried vegetables are all free, meat and wine are paid separately, you write like this!"
Ancient people would not have thought of this, although just a few dry words on the paper, but it can have quite a good effect.
Su Zhengdi has read many books and written many words, but he has never heard these words and written these words. He felt incredible, but now that Liu Xing'er was boasting about Haikou for the Su family, he could only use a dead horse as a live horse doctor, so he obeyed Liu Xing'er's wishes.
Su Zhengdi only wrote down such a one, Liu Xing'er thought that she wanted many people to see that this thin piece of paper was far from enough, she went to the room and found a lot of white paper, Su Zhengdi asked while writing: "What are you asking me to write so many words for?" ”
Liu Xing'er said: "Don't underestimate the words you wrote, he is very useful." ”
Mrs. Su and Aunt Su couldn't hold back any longer, and Mrs. Su ran over to tear up these things.
"Our Su family is almost out of place to live, and we still have to play these tricks with you, a slut!"
Su Huagu whispered: "Mother, I think Liu Xing'er must have fallen into something evil today, it has always been very abnormal, or we will find a master to collect her demonic energy, so as not to harm our brother for a long time." ”
Old Man Su glared at them: "What are you doing here, what should you do!" ”
Su Huagu couldn't help but roll her eyes at Liu Xing'er.
Don't Daddy think that Liu Xing'er's behavior today is too strange?
Liu Xing'er carefully put the words written by Su Zhengdi on the ground to dry one by one, for fear of being blown away by the wind, and deliberately found a few small stones to press, although she didn't know Wen Chao's words, but these words were very important to her.
She Liu Xing'er was about to do something in the Wen Dynasty, and when Su Zhengdi wrote almost, she quickly put away these words, and found that there was no paste in the inn, so she asked Su Zhengdi to take her to find some flour mixed with water and knead it into a dough, and dry the starch in it to make a big bowl of rice cereal. This is also thanks to the fact that she used to post Spring Festival couplets with her grandfather in the countryside, so she has this ability.
The Su family also started to move one after another under the supervision of Old Man Su, Liu Xing'er had something in her heart, and she didn't dare to stay longer, so she packed up her things and pulled Su Zhengdi to leave.
Brother Su Zheng asked: "Where are we going now, and you have to tell me what we want to do, so that I can help you, right?" ”
Liu Xing'er looked at him: "Let's go to the entrance of the town." ”
The two of them walked very quickly, and after a while, they arrived at the entrance of Stone Town, and they had two empty bags, just a bowl of rice cereal and a thick roll of paper.
Liu Xing'er carefully observed the entrance of the town, and there were really a lot of people coming in and out, because it was a remote town, and there was no one at the entrance of the town, which was nothing more than good news for Liu Xing'er.
She looked at the wide limestone wall, and stood in a conspicuous place as much as possible, and when she was ready to start construction, she remembered that she didn't have the tools to brush rice paste, so she casually pulled the green vegetable leaves in a field next to her and thought that she would use them immediately, not wanting the fat aunt nearby to be angry.
"Where are you from, your skin is itchy!"
Brother Su subconsciously blocked Liu Xing'er behind him, full of apologies.
“…… Aunt Zhang, it's me, Xing'er is looking at your family's vegetables are really fresh, thinking about the next time I come to your house to buy some, I can't help but start. ”
"You're from the Blessing Inn?"
Zhang looked at the two men thoughtfully.
The business of Fulai Inn has been bleak in the past few years, plus the famous daughter-in-law of her family, who is not a joke of the Su family after dinner. But listening to the words of these two people, it was not that there was something wrong with the Fulai Inn, she thought about it in her heart, and picked a fat and big cabbage on the spot.
"Since your daughter-in-law wants to try it, then take it, business will be booming in the future, but don't forget Aunt Zhang."
Liu Xing'er felt a little relieved in her heart, not all the people in this stone town were not optimistic about the Fulai Inn, she was actually a little grateful.
"Aunt Zhang, don't worry, you can keep some good things for our family in the future."
Zhang laughed perfunctorily a few times, and began to work on the farm with his back to the loess.
With Zhang's words, Liu Xing'er worked hard, and with the assistance of Su Zhengdi, she pasted the white paper full of words on the entire wall of the town.
Su Zhengdi on the side was dumbfounded, he never thought that the words he wrote would be of such use one day.
Liu Xing'er was a little carried away, and hugged Su Zhengdi: "Now that we're done, we just need to wait for the guests in the lobby to enter the door." ”
Brother Su Zhengdi looked at her straightly, is today's Liu Xing'er still his Liu Xing'er?
In the past, she never took the initiative to get close to her, and she really gave him too much incredible today.
Liu Xing'er was too proud to realize that there was a pair of big eyes staring at her above her, and she suddenly let go of her hand, her face flushed.
"I ...... I...... I'm so happy. ”
Brother Su Zhengdi is not stupid, when he beat Liu Xing'er and said that he was going to Zhenkou, he understood everything, and he was actually quite satisfied.
"Your transaction seems to be a loss, but by using the method of staying together, you can attract a lot of people, and then give away free meals, but in fact, it is just using the backlog of ingredients that cannot be sold to attract residents to drink and eat meat and pay again, and then write these benefits on a blank piece of paper and show them to passers-by in Stone Town like a notice."
He hugged Liu Xing'er into his arms.
"Xing'er, you are so smart, how could I not have found out before?"
Liu Xing'er's heart was sudden, her face was flushed, she patted his hands, and coughed a few times.
"You're going to strangle me."
She thought secretly.
I was born again, how did I become a wife? It's clear that she is still a yellow flower girl.
The two looked at each other and smiled and hurriedly went back, Su Zhengdi looked around upstairs and downstairs of the inn, he had not been so passionate as today for a long time, Liu Xinger was afraid that there would be problems in the back kitchen, and as soon as she returned to the inn, she stayed in the back kitchen, washing vegetables for a while and washing dishes for a while, and did not dare to stop.
Fortunately, she grew up in the countryside since she was a child, and she has also studied and practiced in hotels with particularly harsh environments, even if she is used to living a superior life, she can still adapt to this environment.
She'll be able to do it!
It is with this kind of momentum that Liu Xing'er does not feel very bitter when she does these rough and tiring work, and when everyone is almost busy, the sky is slightly dark, and Stone Town has also quieted down.
After a busy day, the whole family sat in the lobby to rest, also expecting something to happen, but until it was completely dark, the people who the Su family was waiting for still did not come.
