The plan was proposed by Liu Ci, and although she explained the concept of the franchise store clearly to Stuhl, in the face of the young man's pitiful gaze, Liu Ci couldn't pat his ass and leave.

The so-called franchise is to let Stuart take the initiative to empower the forces interested in their business.

The skills of making food can be taught, special ingredients can be provided, as long as a certain "franchise fee" is charged, outside of Emster City, there are countless markets waiting for everyone to expand in the entire continent, so why fight in one city? Of course, in order to promote the franchise, Stuart must have an attractive reputation, technology and experience.

Relying only on the small fights in the farmers' market is at most to attract the attention of others. There may already be people who are interested in the snack shop business, but the small shop opened at the entrance of the farmers' market is far from enough to attract the attention of the big nobles. As long as Stuart doesn't say it, who would know that the small shop can earn more than 10,000 gold coins a year?

The other businessmen in the red-eyed business, Liu Ci didn't look at it. As long as they dare to make trouble, she has a way to clean people up.

Stuart's goal now is to form his own fame and brand, unified decoration, unified tableware, an easy-to-remember store name, and a unified clothing on the waiter, the brand is slowly formed. With the confidence to negotiate business and cooperation with the nobles, when the forces that can threaten the two find out that this inconspicuous small business is making money, Stull already has the opportunity to negotiate.

"Four Seasons Fresh Food Shop", in Stull's words, the shop is miserable, and Liu Ci is also a chill when he listens to it. But Stuart came up with a number of names, and the workers in the store unanimously chose "Four Seasons Fresh" to sound good and easy to remember. The clientele of the snack bar is mostly commoners and middle-class, including the aristocracy's subordinates, and judging by their level of education, there is really nothing wrong with the four seasons.

Stuart endured the pain of closing for a few days, and according to Liu Ci, he formulated uniform work clothes for the employees of "Four Seasons Fresh", the tableware was branded with a unified brand, and the entire store was redecorated again, and the ground was clean. Obviously, the food has not changed, the small details are unified, and it seems that the grade has risen a lot after sitting in it and drinking tofu brain.

Taking advantage of the renovation for a few days, the branch with a unified style was also opened, and Stur was busy training the "waiter" in Liu Ci's mouth, and was busy training the chef who made snacks, and the whole person turned like a spinning top.

Liu Ci felt that it was inhumane to stand by and watch, so he took Nana to the tailor shop to make clothes.

The cloth industry in the Magic Continent is very developed, and in this continent where there is no technical content in farming, there are actually people who can raise silkworms to make silk cloth, and it has to be said that the demand of luxury aristocrats has promoted the production technology. In addition to silk, cotton and linen, cashmere felt, leather...... The tailor shop has a wide variety of fabrics to meet almost all the needs of customers.

Well, Liu Ci's picky goods are not in the category of ordinary customers.

Far from the political and cultural center of the mainland, Emstead City is barren and remote, and what is popular in the Holy Land Port and what is popular in the Imperial Capital may take months or even a year or two to reach Amster City. Liu Ci's dissatisfaction lies in the fact that she can draw the design of clothes and shoes, but she cannot find a talent who is good at embroidery.

The ancient Chinese skirt with the palace silk embroidery, the feeling of foreign but not earthy makes Liu Ci feel extremely awkward.

She loves beauty and dresses up, but "embroidering" such a woman's type of work is not suitable for the domineering Liu Ye.

"Miss, you can buy a few people and let them learn embroidery......"

Nana made a suggestion, and Liu Ci hesitated: "Wouldn't it be too extravagant?" ”

The faithful Nana shook her head vigorously, the hired men in the manor ate white bread all day long, and the owner of the manor kept a few more maids, where was the luxury? As the manor is built, more and more maids will be needed, and she and Amy will feel overwhelmed, and it will be necessary to properly replenish the reserves.

"There is no need to buy people for the time being, there are still many little girls in the hired family."

Liu Ci suddenly became enlightened, not every little girl is willing to become a female warrior in physical arts, there are many girls over the age of twelve, let them do farm work, Liu Ci felt that he was abusing the flowers, and training it to serve himself is a good way out.

After Nana's reminder, Liu Ci suddenly found that he had stored enough "sister paper" in his manor, and after ordering clothes in the tailor shop, Liu Ci also ordered a batch of plain cotton cloth and silk, plus a number of colored silk threads and needlework tools, ready to cultivate a group of Chinese embroidery girls in the other world.

Coming out of the tailor shop, it was still quite early, and it was idle to go back to the hotel at this time, let alone go back to "Four Seasons Fresh", Liu Ci was not afraid of anything, just afraid of trouble, Stuart would definitely pester her to ask questions.

The only place she was interested in in Amster City was the bookstore.

Last time in the bookstore, she met a learned girl who called herself "Chrissy Town", there are not many people who can be appreciated by Liu Ci, she is very interested in Chrissy Town, maybe she can meet again in the bookstore.

Riding a carriage to the bookstore, Liu Ci had been observing for several days, and Claude and his party didn't know where to go, and they disappeared after being slapped in the face by her, and they didn't do anything like "tracking". She didn't want her manor to be exposed now, but fortunately, Claude and the others didn't plan to chase her hard, and Liu Ci himself didn't mind assassinating a few Knights of Light.

There are a lot of people in the bookstore, but the environment is very quiet.

Wearing robes and looking like young people leaning on the bookshelves, quietly flipping through the books, the occasional "whooshing" sound of flipping books actually made Liu Ci's impetuous heart in the city slowly quiet down.

Obviously, the skin color and hair color of those students were completely different from her, but Liu Ci felt that she was very harmonious with her surroundings in this environment.

Their thirst for knowledge was undisguised, and some of them might become famous archmagicians on the continent in the future, and they might turn to serve the Holy See like Edward, but in any case, at this moment, in the afternoon in Amster, they were just a bunch of young people with dreams.

Liu Ci's movements also became lighter, and he whispered to the clerk if he had any new books. Liu Ci is very generous in buying books, unlike other people who will rub books to read, she is very happy to pay for the books she likes, although she has not come for a month, the clerk still has an impression of her and is very enthusiastic about her.

"Miss, there are two new travelogues in our store, which are from the Ruilan Empire, you will definitely like them."

Liu Ci's heart moved, the three major empires of the Magic Continent, Xiyi and Spurs, she knew something, the geographical relationship, she knew the least about the Ruilan Empire, and when she heard the clerk's recommendation, she couldn't help but nodded.

Seeing that she was interested, the clerk rushed to the back to move the books.

Liu Ci had already sent Nana to go shopping by herself, and when she saw that it took time for the clerk to pick up the goods, she went to the bookshelf by herself. After looking at the dozen or so customers in the store, she was a little disappointed that there was no erudite and mysterious "Chrissycho".

A small emotion could not affect Liu Ci's mood, she casually pulled out a book that would be scrolled, and was about to flip through the pages to see if it was connected with the talisman, when a new guest came to the door of the bookstore.

"Grandpa, this is the bookstore."

Liu Ci pinched the book and heard a somewhat familiar female voice, and couldn't help but look up.

The stunning girl with purple hair and purple eyes slowly approached, and the magic students who were immersed in the sea of books couldn't help but look at her distractedly.

Alchemy girl Yui?! Why did I meet her again in the bookstore. Liu Ci turned sideways to avoid and completely hid himself behind the bookshelf. It's not that she's afraid of the teenage girl, but Liu Ci found that in addition to being obsessed with alchemy, the other party is also a little self-righteous and paranoid.

Wei Yi looked back behind her from time to time, and an old man followed her and walked into the store.

The thin old man, with white hair and full of energy, has short white hair, and only according to the "grandfather" he calls him, is actually the "old man" who used to lie in the manor?!

Liu Ci's heart was shocked, and the hand holding the spine of the book couldn't help but exert force. Are there any other reasons for this? It's also too much of a coincidence.

Her mind fluctuated slightly, and the old man's eyes were like torches, and he glanced behind the bookshelf.

With just one glance, it brought Liu Ci an indescribable coercion. The strength of the "old man" is not something she can fight against at this time. Liu Ci gritted his teeth and was about to walk out, but Wei Yi had already pulled the sleeve of the old man.

"Go this way! Boss, what about the book that let you in last time?! ”

A well-dressed middle-aged man came down the stairs, thanks to Weiyi's blessing, Liu Ci also met the bookstore owner for the first time.

The other party is obviously very familiar with Weiyi, and when he saw the "old man", his bookish atmosphere became respectful.

"You're here."

He greeted the "old man of the board" first, and then turned his head to Weiyi with a warm face and said: "The two books you want are not easy to find, this time I imported a batch of books from the Ruilan Empire, it may be the private collection of an old family, Miss is very lucky, the two books happen to be among them." ”

Wei Yixi smiled, she is obsessed with alchemy, but alchemists are self-cherished, they rarely write books to leave their own experience, alchemy books are the most difficult to find.

The owner of the bookstore asked Wei Yi to take out the two books that Wei Yi wanted, and Wei Yi pestered the old man to pay, and the boss bent down again and again, and said: "I don't dare to take your money, you can come to the bookstore more when you have time." ”

You don't need money to buy books, and the abnormality here has attracted other guests to wait and see.

Liu Ci found that several students looked at the old man in awe, and in the blink of an eye, he lowered his head and buried his head in the book as if he didn't see each other, which was indescribably weird.

Ban Cuntou took out a bag of gold coins and asked Wei Yi to settle the bill, chatting with the bookstore owner: "The books shipped from the Ruilan Empire...... The three major empires went to war, and the biggest loss was the Ruilan Empire, and many nobles went bankrupt. ”

The owner of the bookstore also sighed with emotion, "No, the nobles who sell their properties are not, and even our bookstore has picked up the cheap." Amster's location was remote and barren, and the Empire knew that it would not be able to squeeze out any gold coins, but would be the least affected, which was a blessing in disguise. Not to mention the victorious Xiyi Empire, if the Ruilan Empire wants to recover, I'm afraid it will take ten years. ”

The boss spoke, his tone sad.

Liu Ci hid behind the bookshelf and listened, thinking to himself, could it be that the owner of the bookstore is from Ruilan?

Ban Cuntou "snorted", "Those in power are ignorant!" The Moloch Mountains hide a looming danger, and the threat of the Monsters has not been resolved, and the humans have turned to cannibalism...... Don't be sad, the war is destined to win and lose, what can the defeated country do, the monarch can learn a lesson, and it will not be difficult for the Ruilan Empire to develop again in a few years. You are also a big bookseller now, just do your best to help the suffering people, you can lose everything, you can't lose the pride of an empire, you can't lose the pride of being a man! ”

The pride of an empire cannot be lost, and the pride of being a man cannot be lost!

The ashes on the bookstore owner's face were swept away, and his somewhat stiff waist straightened again.

The old man's words were so loud that even Liu Ci felt very inspiring when he heard it, not to mention the students who pretended to be reading books, but in fact they were also eavesdropping.

A few students looked excited, put down the books in their hands, took two steps forward, and bowed to the old man:

"We are also from Ruilan...... I am very fortunate to have listened to your teachings, and thank you, Dean! ”

Ruilan people, spur people, both countries are the defeated side, the words of the old man resonated with the students of the bookstore, and under the excitement, the two Ruilan students took two steps forward, saluted at the same time, and also exposed the identity of the old man.

The Chief Dean?!

Liu Ci was completely stunned, the old man who had lived in the villa for a few days was the "chief dean" of the Amster School of Magic who rarely showed up...... She frowned, feeling that life was more dramatic than fiction!
