Chapter 4 Huaitianlou opened
After breakfast, the maid brought mouthwash green leaf powder and jade jars. After rinsing the green leaf powder, spit it into the jade jar. The mouth is not greasy and fresh, and wipe your mouth with a new handkerchief.
At the same time, the plaque of Huaitianlou was also handed over, made of white jade, and there were golden patterns inlaid on it, the font was atmospheric, and everyone's praise was indispensable. In the end, Bai Fengxue begged for a reward for the carpenters like her mother, and each of them got five taels of silver and a month's salary. The carpenters laughed from ear to ear, and praised their young lady for her kindness.
Covered the plaque with a red hijab, asked for thirty guards and butlers, packed hundreds of bottles of pills one by one, and set off with people in a mighty way.
At the entrance of the house, the special carriage has been prepared, and he stepped on a small bench to get into the carriage. As soon as he tilted his body, he lay down. Shuang'er sat not far away and stared at her young lady, helplessly holding her forehead.
After a while, they arrived at the most prosperous street in Tiancheng, and the carriage moved slowly, attracting the attention of many people, "The carriage of the Heavenly Maiden, the Danlou of the Heavenly Maiden is about to open today"
The forces of all parties are ready to move, and the neighboring four major cities rushed to come yesterday, and when they heard the rumors, they hurriedly sent letters back to their respective families. The families exploded in an instant, and they prepared silver coins one after another. Some even rushed over overnight on flying beasts. For a time, the inn was overcrowded.
"Yesterday, I was born with a vision, the emperor came to the general's mansion in person, and when he left, he also took away four rare pills."
"Yes, yes, Prime Minister Lin also has it, I'm so happy when I go back."
"The Heavenly Maiden is so small, how can she be an alchemist?" one person asked.
"You don't know, the Heavenly Maiden nodded in March and was exempt from fiefdom taxes"
"Yes, we in Fengcheng haven't paid taxes for five years, and the people are grateful for this, especially the Heavenly Maiden, and I'm also hee-hee." A young man smiled stupidly, "Don't say much, I'm going to see the goddess"
"The Heavenly Maiden usually doesn't show up, very few people have seen her appearance, let's go and join in the fun."
They followed the carriage in twos and threes, and soon the carriage was full of people.
"Miss, Miss, there are so many people" Shuang'er slightly lifted the silk veil and looked at the endless stream of people behind her, black and pressing.
"It's a lot, it's estimated that the surrounding cities have received the news." Bai Fengxue nodded slightly.
The carriage came to a slow stop, and the butler jumped out of the carriage and held a small bench for cushioning.
The crowd behind the carriage craned their necks. I saw a little girl in a maid's costume being helped down from the car by the housekeeper.
"The little girl a year ago is now so beautiful." The old bustard of the Roulian Pavilion said with a smile upstairs.
Then a small blue hand was placed on Frost'er's hand, with slender fingers and rounded fingertips. Escorted by the butler and the guards, he stepped on a small bench and got out of the carriage. Her jet-black and shiny hair was half-draped over her back, and she wore a complicated bun at the back of her head. White crystal tassel jewelry, lining people more and more cute. Beneath the thick curly eyelashes are a pair of eye-catching eyes. The small nose, the slightly pouting pink lips, the slightly fleshy goose egg face, the skin is not mixed with a little impurities, and the smoothness makes people sigh. Wearing a white skirt, elegant and smart. The morning sun shone on her body, emitting a faint light. One stroke at a time seems to be carefully carved, and a smile has already captivated the country and the city.
The crowd was blinded, and only after bowing down did they turn their heads and ears.
At this time, the plaque of Huaitianlou draped in red cloth had been hung up. Firecrackers are also in place. The pill was also put in and placed through the back door, and the guy was still the guy who was here before.
Huaitian Tower, a total of five floors, covers a wide area.
was originally a rouge shop at home, but was asked to come by Bai Fengxue. This shop is the largest of all the shops with the best location, but I didn't expect my mother to give it to her without blinking, and no one asked her what she was coming for. Then he closed down and no one mentioned it, and she messed around. It took a month to change it to the style she wanted, and when it was finished, she was very satisfied.
Bai Fengxue didn't say a word of nonsense, she directly asked people to light firecrackers, pulled down the red cloth herself, and the plaque fell into everyone's eyes.
The three words Huaitianlou were imprinted on everyone's hearts.
The two guards pushed open the heavy door, and not far from the entrance, on the right-hand side, there was a large counter for easy checkout. This is followed by a large hall with a high platform that can accommodate 100 people, which is used for explanations or activities. In the corner of the hall there is a palm-deep fountain pool, and in the middle of the fountain is a two-person tall white coral. There is also a spiral staircase that circles the entire hall and leads to the top floor. Rows of half-human-high agarwood shelves are divided into grids, and small jade bottles are placed in the recessed position, and the names and prices are pasted on the partitions.
The second floor is a restaurant model, with a total of 500 private rooms. The third floor is to receive people who have Huaitianlou VIP cards. The fourth floor is a place for future alchemists. The fifth floor is left by the owner.
Thirty guards stood at the door, the people outside were about to move, Bai Fengxue turned around, "Let them line up in three lines, and then come in turn, the troublemaker Huai Tianlou will never receive it." ”
"Yes" replied in unison, and the people who heard the movement immediately lined up, and the three lines were lined up not long after, and the guards moved the chairs specially made for Bai Fengxue and found a suitable place on the stage. Bai Fengxue sat down and stared at the door. Frost was half a step behind and stood on the right.
Everyone came in in an orderly manner, first to see the dignity of the Heavenly Maiden, and then quickly moved to the shelves, there were about twenty guys in the store. The shopkeeper is a young man of about twenty, the son of the housekeeper, both of whom are side children of the Bai family, and they were sent to the main family, and the housekeeper stayed for thirty years. The shopkeeper made everyone quiet, and the pressure on nearly 2,000 people was huge. But still use spiritual power to spread your voice to make sure everyone can hear it. Then the grades, functions and prices of each pill in each region were explained one by one.
"Everyone, today I Huai Tianlou officially opened. The number is limited, and because Huaitianlou is short of manpower, we open the door every seven afternoons. Everyone must know how these pills came from. Our landlord will hold an elixir party after March, and children of appropriate age in the family who want to be alchemists can send them to participate in the competition. After being selected, in the case of not reaching the third-grade alchemist, the medicinal materials are provided by the landlord. The shopkeeper gushed endlessly. Everyone was really excited when they heard it.
"White shopkeeper, but it's true." One asked incredulously.
"It's true, my master is sitting there, how dare I talk nonsense." The white shopkeeper said with a smile.
Bai Fengxue said at the right time, "This is indeed the case, I hope everyone will go back and publicize it more and benefit the capital of my snow country." It doesn't matter if you are poor or not, no matter what your age, as long as you have a motivated heart. I believe that in three months, most people will pass my test. ”
Although the sound was not loud, most people still heard it, and it was passed from person to person, telling what they didn't hear. But for a moment, everyone was excited. You must know that medicinal materials are very expensive, and ordinary people can't afford them at all. Now, there is a fourth-grade alchemist, not to mention that she can refine rare qualities. She is a noble person, and she is only five years old, and her future is limitless.
"Okay, everyone, be quiet," the white shopkeeper said, "Now let's take a look at the elixir, this is a high-grade elixir spiritual power pill, and the spiritual power that is lost after eating it will be restored instantly." A high-grade detoxification pill can detoxify hundreds of poisons, and a bottle of ten taels of silver. Everyone was stunned, and the white shopkeeper said, "Ten taels of gold for the second-grade high-grade elixir, one hundred taels of gold for the third-grade high-grade elixir, in addition to the Lingli Pill Detoxification Pill, the third-grade elixir also has the Beauty Pill. "The girls are itching in their hearts.
"There is also the rare quality four-grade pill that you have been waiting for for a long time, the Continuation Pill is as the name suggests, it is to save your life when your life is dying, delaying your life by three months." The white shopkeeper pushed the atmosphere into a climax, "The price is 1,000 taels of gold, no credit and no mortgage." Due to the limited quantity today, only one bottle can be taken per person. After everyone told me what they wanted, they handed over the cash and went to the counter to register before leaving. It doesn't matter if you don't get it, you can make an appointment, at that table, register the information and then make an appointment, and you can get it after seven days. Don't miss the opportunity and don't come again, if you miss it, you have to wait seven days. ”
Bai Fengxue looked at the shopkeeper so skillfully, watched the guys serve with a smile, and did their best to get busy. Lightly opened his thin lips, "Butler, reward, everyone, ten taels of silver per person." ”
Shuang'er's eyes lit up, "Miss Xie" It's good to follow Miss, you don't have to do anything to get the reward. The white butler said, "Yes, Miss," and then smiled as well.
It lasted for an hour and was finally sold out. Those who got it were excited, and those who didn't get it were happy. Everything that is needed is registered, and they go to their respective families to share the joy.
The heavy gate closes from the inside, and the door is set for the next opening time.
Bai Fengxue slowly got up and looked at everyone, "Today's performance is very good, and the potential of the white shopkeeper is good." ”
"Miss Shirama Xie" said and bowed. Everyone also saluted, and most of them were very reserved. Everyone roared in their hearts, the daughter of the Bai family has a strong aura and a noble status, and she can't afford to be hurt.
"Come on, I don't have that much etiquette here, just be happy. I have something to talk to you about. Bai Fengxue narrowed her eyes slightly, "Are you willing to be a cook?" ”
The crowd became nervous all at once.
Bai Fengxue chuckled, "Don't be so nervous, from today onwards, you will only work one day for eight days, and I will give you ten taels of silver per month, and the shopkeeper will give you one hundred taels." After a pause, he continued, "But you also know that the second floor is used for a restaurant, and I expect to recruit another hundred chefs to come in, and then follow you to learn the dishes, and to become a chef you will have to work another seven days, eight days of work and six and a half days, and a day and a half of rest." The cook's salary was thirty taels a month, and the shopkeeper's salary was three hundred taels. When the time comes, branches will be opened in various places, all of which are to divide you out and bring people, and then those who are willing to come back can come back, there are no nostalgic people here, and the position of the shopkeeper will always be there. ”
Look at me, people, and I'll look at you. Shiruma stepped forward and knelt down, "Hakuma will always follow his master." One after another stood up, "We will always follow the master." ”
"Okay, don't worry, I won't treat you badly." Bai Fengxue smiled lightly, "Now clean up and follow the housekeeper back to the house." The housekeeper has settled them, and tomorrow I will make a part of the recipe, and then I will follow along. Also, I'm out of town today, and I'll come back before dark, so I don't have to report to my father. ”
The butler commanded, "Yes, miss." ”
Bai Fengxue left with Shuang'er and the thirty guards, and after getting into the carriage, she instantly slumped and found a place to lean, "Is there a good person in the village who treats you?" How many families are there?"
Shuang'er choked up and said, "Almost every family has helped the slaves. Everybody is fine. There are fifty families in the village."
"Well, it doesn't look good when you cry." Bai Fengxue touched her head and instructed outside the car, "Hire two carriages, buy 100 books, 500 catties of pork divided into 10 catties of bundles, 50 bags of rice, 100 bags of flour, 50 catties of maltose, you 20 of you go to buy, and after you buy them, go to Yuejing Restaurant for lunch." He took out a thousand taels of silver tickets and handed them to the guards, and after dividing the twenty guards, he took Shuang'er, the coachman and ten guards towards the Yuejing Restaurant.
Xiao Er of Yuejing Restaurant saw the carriage parked at the door with a big mouth, and hurriedly asked people to notify the shopkeeper to come down.
As soon as I got out of the carriage, I saw a gentle middle-aged man coming over, "See the Heavenly Maiden, the Heavenly Maiden is auspicious." Then he knelt down.
"Get up, don't be polite." Bai Fengxue nodded slightly. Then he said, "Three boxes"
The shopkeeper immediately arranged to bring people to the third floor.
"Five special dishes, three vegetarian dishes, two meats, two dishes and chopsticks." After Bai Fengxue spoke, she pointed to the guards, "The other two boxes have three rounds of specialties, and they will arrange the time." ”
The guards looked moved, and Bai Fengxue rolled her eyes indecently, "How can you be hungry and go out of the city in the afternoon." Leave two to take turns guarding the door, and the others go to the box to rest. ”
The shopkeeper secretly admired this little doll, did not look down on inferior people, respected everyone, and then silently withdrew from the box arrangement.
After a while, the dishes were all on the table, "Shuang'er sit, if you don't sit, I'll be angry." Eat together, and if you don't eat, you'll be sold. Bai Fengxue was very hungry, blocked Shuang'er's words, and ate elegantly.
Frost is petrified, and Miss is good or bad. After sitting down obediently, Bai Fengxue gave Shuang'er vegetables, "Shuang'er eat more and grow taller." Shuang'er's cheeks were slightly red, and she ate it gently. The next box was full of laughter and laughter in front of the table full of dishes. An hour later, they were all satisfied. Bai Fengxue flicked her sleeves, got up elegantly, and then returned to the carriage under the hug.
