Chapter 396: Opening
When the carriage arrived in Yeyang, it was still dark before the dawn.
The city gate was opened in the fourth watch, and a huge lantern hung on each side, and it was also bright.
At this time, there were few people entering the city, and Lala was a small merchant and hawker, and the gatekeepers were not lax, and they were very careful.
After entering the city gate, the vendors have to guard the market door before they can enter, and they are urged to leave before they finish buying and selling or close the city gate. They are all floating population, and they can't set up camp in the city, so they can only run around every day.
Ji Yu was once again glad about her decision to buy the store.
As always, when it is their turn, the time for the check-in is always longer than that of others.
Guan Shan took off the hat and let others look at it, without the slightest fluctuation in his eyes.
There is one of the gatekeepers who often comes here on duty, and he has already remembered Guan Shan's face. Of course, I also investigated him, and knew that this was a homeless person, and he was destined to marry a local daughter-in-law, and now he has opened a store in Yeyang, plus Ji Yu has given him a lot of benefits before and after...... He turned his head and muttered a few words to his companion, who hesitated for a moment before letting go.
Horses clatter through the silent streets, the lights come on one after another, and a new day is about to begin.
When I arrived at the door of my store, I found that the door panel had been removed, and the store was brightly lit.
Guan Shan turned around, took Dabao, and stretched out another hand to help Ji Yu.
Ji Yu got out of the carriage and said in surprise, "It's so early, shopkeeper Xu!" β
"Don't make fun of me, Ji Dongjia." Xu Laifu came out of the shop, pointed his finger, and motioned for Ji Yu to look up.
Ji Yu raised her head and found that the door plaque had been hung.
It's not a whole piece, but four small pieces that are square, from right to left, written respectively - season, clan, taste, and karma.
Four large characters are hung in the highest position in the middle of the store.
Below, above the faΓ§ade where the spices are located, there is also a plaque hanging on it, which reads "Baiwei Fang"; Above the faΓ§ade where the soy sauce vinegar is located, there is also a plaque hanging with the words "Sauce and vinegar workshop".
The black background of the water is golden, and there is also a red silk ribbon.
In addition, there are several vertical plaques, the kind that hangs at the door, and they are all written auspicious words such as welcoming guests from all sides and attracting wealth from all directions.
Ji Yu asked, "Doctor Xin, they are also up?" β
Xu Laifu also only met Ping An yesterday, and he hasn't seen Dr. Xin yet, but he has been staying in the store and hasn't seen anyone coming.
"Then this plaque should have been hung up yesterday after we left."
Xu Laifu understood, "This plaque was given by Dr. Xin?" β
Ji Yu nodded, "It's not him, who else can there be." β
She was originally going to find someone to order it herself, but she was preempted by Xin Ziqi, and she couldn't refuse if she wanted to.
She didn't have to worry about the door plaque, so she found someone else to order two billboards with stands, which were the kind she made when she sold Hu spicy soup before, but this one is much more formal than that one.
Guan Shan took the billboard out of the carriage, propped up the stand and stood on the ground, Xu Laifu found that there was not a word on it, and looked at Ji Yu suspiciously.
Ji Yu explained in a few words, "Just put it at the door, if there are any new products and activities, you can write them on paper and paste them." β
Xu Laifu's eyes lit up, "Paper can be replaced at any time, isn't it more practical than a fixed plaque?" β
"To each his own, well." Exclusive signboards are still needed.
The two talked at the door, and Dabao took Ji Yu's hand, and his little head grew little by little.
Just on the way here, the two of them were sleepy, and at this time Ji Yu was in good spirits, and Dabao was still sleepy.
Ji Yu bent over, just about to pick up Dabao, as if thinking of something, her hand paused, and changed to hugging.
"Dabao, wake up, wake up."
Dabao has been quite competitive during this time, no matter how Guan Shan tortured, he didn't ask Ji Yu to complain.
But at this moment, I was in a daze, and the instinct that had been cultivated for more than a year came up, and I closed my eyes and went straight into Ji Yu's arms, my little face was still wrinkled, and I didn't get up too obviously.
However, as soon as he fell into Ji Yu's arms, he was lifted up by Guan Shan.
"Eh......"
Ji Yu watched Dabao being carried all the way into the backyard by Guan Shan, and when he followed up, Dabao was already on the horse with a resentful face.
"Isn't this a little ......" Ji Yu thought to say, even if she wants to exercise, it's too early.
looked at Shangguanshan, and turned a corner bluntly, "It's good...... Boys, don't be squeamish, come on, Dabao! β
After Ji Yu finished speaking against her will, she hurriedly left, not daring to go to see Dabao.
Does this count as having a step-brother-in-law and having a step-sister?
Alas, poor Dabao.
The door of the second room to the west opened from the inside, and the boat came out with two bowls of water, still steaming from the bowls, apparently freshly burned.
Ji Yu didn't expect him to get up so early, "Why don't you sleep for a while?" β
Xu Laifu said, "Xiaozhou is earlier than me, Laiyun and I thought we would wait until dawn at the door, but as soon as we sat down, Xiaozhou came around from the alley and called us to enter the corner door." β
"I, I'm not sleepy."
Xiao Zhou said, handing one bowl to Ji Yu and the other to Guan Shan.
Not to mention, it's cold all the way, and it's really comfortable to drink some hot water.
The Xu brothers have already drunk it.
Xiaozhou didn't know in advance that Ji Yu would bring her younger brother, so she went in and served another bowl.
When it was handed to Dabao, Dabao did not accept it, and still maintained a posture of raising his arms and knees half-bent.
Ji Yu looked at Guanshan. Guan Shan received her meaning, his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, but in the end he still nodded, and said to Dabao with a cold face and continued later.
Dabao took the water, not to mention how smelly his face was.
Ji Yu was also worried that Xiaozhou would think too much, thinking that Dabao's stinky face was directed at him. But what kind of child Xiaozhou has never seen, and he doesn't take it to heart.
After that, Guan Shan took Dabao to the second courtyard to stand on the pile and box, Xiaozhou couldn't hide his curiosity, and stood at the moon cave gate for a long time.
Ji Yu and Xu Laifu went back to the store to discuss the details.
When the sky was bright, I asked Xu Laiyun to go to the breakfast shop next to me to buy steamed buns and wontons, and everyone gathered around a table to have breakfast.
After eating and cleaning up, the sky is already bright, and there are more and more people on the street one after another.
Ping'an led the two medicine boys from Yidetang diagonally from the opposite side.
"Ji Niangzi, don't be surprised, my young master is about to come over, and a patient's family members are crying and coming to the door, he has gone to the clinic, and Dr. Liu wants to stay in the hall for consultation."
Ji Yu naturally won't be surprised.
Everyone was busy for a while, using a feather duster to dust the dust that didn't exist on the rack, and re-sorting the goods on the shelf, all of which were trivial.
Xu Laifu was nervous, and there were words in his mouth.
He is more familiar with soy sauce and vinegar than anyone else, but he is still a novice in the seasoning, for fear of remembering something wrong or missing, and he keeps reciting it silently when he has nothing to do these days.
Although Xiaozhou's performance was not obvious, he was obviously a little panicked.
From time to time, I touch the teapot on the table, and when the water temperature is a little cold, I want to change it to a new one, and my eyes have been staring at the door all the time.
Ji Yu is okay.
At the beginning of the day, everything was ready, and she nodded.
Amid the sound of crackling firecrackers, the new store officially opened.
