Text Chapter 133: Take charge of the Fengdu Night Market of Wujimen
Yan Ziyue pointed out some problems in the cloth shop and the jade shop in one breath, and the two shopkeepers praised them again and again.
Yan Ziyue picked up three drawn accounting templates from the table and handed them to the five shopkeepers.
"I have a little requirement here, in the future, the income and expenditure of the store should be recorded separately, an income account, an expenditure account, income and expenditure can be divided into a level and a second level, the clearer the record, the better, once a day, once a month, the third book, the accounts reported in the future must be three complete. In addition, it is recommended that each store build a history book of customers to record the information of each customer, such as name, identity, things bought, how much money was spent, etc., the more detailed the better. In this way, we can analyze the preferences of our guests, and preferably, remember every important guest, so that the guests will remember us and will naturally come more."
The five shopkeepers listened attentively, looked at the bookkeeping model, and all of them were convinced.
Time flies, and noon is about to pass.
"Then I'll talk about the teahouse," Yan Ziyue took a sip of water and continued.
"Young master, the matter of the teahouse, I am not in a hurry, everyone must be hungry, I asked people to go to Huaming Building to order wine and food, let's talk while eating."
"That's fine", Yan Ziyue got up, looked at the five shopkeepers, and said politely: "The five of you should also be together."
The five of them all looked at the Cloud Hall Master, and when they saw his approval, they happily went.
Yan Ziyue and his entourage came into Huaming Building, and the waiter's little brother led him directly to the private room upstairs. Yan Ziyue came for the first time, scanned the layout and layout of the building, observed the guests and waiters in the building, and the things sold in the building.
In the private room, as soon as Yan Ziyue and the others sat down, the food came up.
Yun Yang asked the waiter's little brother to bring a pot of wine, but Yan Ziyue refused.
Yan Ziyue looked at each dish one by one, and said to Lei Yunting: "Come, you try it first."
Lei Yunting didn't say a word, picked up the chopsticks and ate, chose a random one to start, and stopped the chopsticks after eating a circle.
"How"?
"It's okay, this, and this one are not bad, the others are average."
"Hehe", Yan Ziyue smiled faintly, turned to the others and said, "I'm sorry, I made you laugh, but you also heard that the dishes here are average."
"Young master, this is one of the best restaurants in Fengdu, its dishes are also well-known delicacies, and the dishes I ordered are also its best dishes, although it can't be compared with the palace, but it's not ordinary."
"In this case, then we can only invite everyone to the palace to gather another day."
"Master Yuntang, if it was before, I wouldn't dare to say such a thing, but now, the things on the small stove of the young master of the palace are indeed not ordinary, and I have never eaten such delicious dishes in my life."
As soon as Steward Luo said this, everyone was full of expectations for the palace.
"Okay, let's not talk about it for now, let's eat first."
Yan Ziyue spoke, and everyone started eating.
Lei Yunting moved slightly, he really couldn't swallow it, he barely drank some soup, Yan Ziyue tasted everything, and he didn't eat much.
After a while, everyone put down their chopsticks, and they should be full.
"Master Yuntang, how much silver does this table get?"
"Young master, there should be fifteen taels at this table!"
"So expensive"? Yan Ziyue thought for a moment, glanced at the food on the table again, and didn't say anything more.
Yun Yang settled the account, and everyone returned to the door of the teahouse.
When Yan Ziyue and the others went out, Steward Dai looked at it in a hidden place, and saw that they were dressed in fine clothes and talked about their temperament, and they were not like ordinary sons, they were a little curious, but they saw that not far away, Jin Buchang, a young man wearing a silver butterfly mask, came over, so he hurriedly greeted him.
"Boss Jin, why are you here, this is..."?
"Young Master Yan, he will be the big boss of Hua Minglou in the future, and I am the second boss", Jin Buchang said with a smile.
"It's... Hello Flame Boy...".
"What did you just look at"?
"It's nothing, it's just that there was a wave of guests who felt unusual, so I came out and took a look."
"Where"? Jin Buchang asked.
"It's already far away", Steward Dai raised his eyes and looked at the direction Yan Ziyue was walking, and there was no trace of them.
"Let's go", Jin Buchang said and looked at Yan Gongzi, finding that he was still looking in the direction that Steward Dai pointed out just now.
"I said God of Wealth, what do you see"?
Xiao Yan didn't pay attention to it, the back just now felt so familiar, it was him, Yue... Is that you?
"Let's go upstairs first," Jin Buchang said with a smile.
"Hmm...", Xiao Yan retracted his gaze and followed Jin Bu upstairs.
In the teahouse, Yun Yang asked the four shopkeepers to be busy first, and explained that they must do it as required.
Yan Ziyue stopped them, walked to the rice shop, noodle shop, and cloth shop shopkeepers and said: "Three shopkeepers, the things in your store are all related to the people's livelihood, if there are people in danger to come, please let them owe credit as appropriate, my Wujimen should be people who do good deeds in the narrow sense." Shopkeeper Zheng, if the mother-in-law in the morning comes again, she should give her some credit."
"It's... Young Master".
"Go ahead... In fact, you have all done a good job, and if you put more thought into the details, I believe it will be even better."
"Young master...", the four shopkeepers looked at Yan Ziyue, and there was a feeling of death for a confidant, and said in unison: "Young master, don't worry, we will do our best to do better."
"Well..., I trust you".
The four of them gave up their hands and turned to leave.
Steward Luo and Yun Yang saw everything in their eyes and respected Yan Ziyue even more.
Lei Yunting stepped forward and stood beside Yan Ziyue, looked at her, and showed a bright smile.
Yan Ziyue followed Yun Yang into the teahouse, and taking advantage of the fact that there were not many guests now, Yan Ziyue pointed out all the places where the problems were found, and proposed solutions. Subsequently, Yan Ziyue asked Yun Yang to take her to the back kitchen, Yan Ziyue saw that the back kitchen was so spacious, and it was a pity, but if the teahouse was changed into a restaurant, the kitchen would be enough, but the space in the outer hall would not be enough. However, the teahouse has the practice of a teahouse, and it is not lost to the restaurant if it is done. Immediately, Yan Ziyue asked Yun Yang to find someone to change a few ovens in the kitchen, and go back to make some roast chicken, roast duck or roast suckling pig or something.
Yan Ziyue asked Yun Yang to change the second floor of the teahouse into a high platform, and invited a few famous storytellers to come back, it is best to tell some interesting anecdotes or something, anyway, the guests have to be guests who love to listen. In addition, there are too few styles of refreshments, so I will send a secret recipe for refreshments to the teahouse, and let Hongsu also teach the masters here.
The shopkeeper of the teahouse was stunned when he heard this, and he was directly dumbfounded, he never knew that the teahouse could do this.
Yun Yang just smiled and said nothing, and wrote it down by heart.
In the end, Yan Ziyue also specially told Yun Yang to take back the rented out shop as soon as possible, and then don't waste it in the teahouse, if you have leftover refreshments to eat or something, you can send them to some people in need.
It was already time to finish, and when Yun Yang sent Yan Ziyue and the others away, he seemed to have something to say.
"Master Yun, just say what you have," Yan Ziyue asked.
"Young master, the matchmaker's business, she didn't mean it, please don't blame her."
"Oh... Is the Cloud Hall Master interceding for the Red Hall Master, presumably your relationship is extraordinary."
"Young master, I misunderstood, I just...", Yun Yang didn't know how to explain for a while.
"It's just a joke, don't worry, I have my own judgment."
"Yes...", Yun Yang's jaw responded, for Yan Ziyue, she is not only smart and kind, observant, but also understands people's hearts, she can see through things that ordinary people can't see through at a glance, decisive and assertive, rigid and soft, tolerant but not damaging majesty, friendly but domineering.
After Yan Ziyue left, Yun Yang asked people to bring a handwritten letter to the matchmaker, asking her to ask Yan Ziyue for guilt as soon as possible.
Yan Ziyue went back to King Kang's Mansion for dinner, and then took Steward Luo and Lei Yunting to the location of Qingyi Hall and the shops under his management to investigate.
"Young master, after entering here, you can see the location of Qingyi Hall."
"It's very lively, it deserves to be a famous night market in Fengdu, let's go."
I don't know if I don't see it, I was dumbfounded when I saw Yan Ziyue, this night market is a black market at all, and it is all shady trading. None of the sixteen shops under the Qingyi Hall are doing business, they are all shady, and one of them is actually engaged in slave trading.
Yan Ziyue was a little angry, and she wanted to rush up to teach these people a lesson, but was stopped by Steward Luo.
After finding a tavern that looked a little cleaner and sat down, Steward Luo and Yan Ziyue explained in detail the formation of this night market and some rules for buying and selling in the night market.
Yan Ziyue couldn't understand and could only accept it after hearing this, it turned out that Qingyitang was also very difficult to do in the night market, the night market was controlled by the newly established ghost palace in the rivers and lakes, and the total transaction volume of the daily night market was as high as 100,000 taels, half of which fell into the hands of the ghost palace. It's not that the imperial court doesn't want to take care of it, but it can't be managed, because it is related to many powerful people in the imperial court, and most of the slaves traded here are criminal slaves, and the medicinal materials and weapons are not from the right way, but these are in great demand, and it can be said that they are all obtained by bidding.
"Let's go, let's go and have a look", Yan Ziyue couldn't sit still after listening to Steward Luo's words.
The three of them walked out of the tavern and walked around the night market again, and sure enough, they were surprised everywhere, some things were indeed very tempting, such as precious medicinal materials, excellent weapons, lost learning, and young men and girls who were like flowers, and there was also a thing that Yan Ziyue was shocked by was the sale of human life, no matter who it was, as long as he could afford the money, he could take anyone's life, even if it was an official in an important position, and the prisoners in the prison, no matter what crime they committed, as long as they have money, they can also be redeemed.
Yan Ziyue felt that her common sense had been seriously impacted, she was disgusted but also helpless, these are not things that can be changed by her own strength, the only thing she wants to know now is what Qingyitang is doing, whether she has done anything hurtful to the heavens and reason, if there is, she will definitely not spare Wei Yi.
Yan Ziyue specially asked Steward Luo to take her to the shop in Qingyi Hall to check carefully, and she didn't let go of any of them, and after asking, she was already so angry that she couldn't do it, and she tried hard to suppress her anger and left the night market in a hurry.
"My Flame God of Wealth, what are you looking for"? Jin didn't change his breath and panted all the way to trot through the crowd before catching up with Xiao Yan.
"Lord, are you looking for someone"? Zephyr looked around, and there were people everywhere, all kinds of dressed people.
"Am I dazzled"? Owl Flame said to himself.
