Chapter 167: Money Can Make Demons Grind
Hearing Hua Niang say this, Xiao Yue sighed, "Hua Niang, this is no different from having money or not, rich people will not dislike having more money, but making money depends on luck, the business of the inn is nothing more than relying on the merchants who come and go, and now that the war has just ended, it is acceptable that the situation is not good for the time being, on the other hand, the current room layout of the inn is a bit wasteful, I think it can be adjusted in this way." ”
Xiao Yue told Hua Niang her previous ideas on how to make reasonable use of the inn space, Hua Niang nodded again and again, and finally said with a red face: "Actually, what Childe said is reasonable, but on the one hand, I take care of my husband and have no time to take care of him, on the other hand, the business of the inn is not good now, and I am not satisfied with living on weekdays, so where do I still want to leave a few more rooms." ”
Xiao Yue smiled and said: "I'm not to blame, in addition, I don't think about my idea of the Tianzi room in the back, I guess you won't think about it, after all, you still need to spend a little more silver to renovate, so let's do it, anyway, there is no one in the inn now, it's better for you to close down early, and relocate the inn according to my idea, in addition, didn't you also take out fifty taels of silver to buy shares, use this money to build a house later, and if the money is not enough, you will find the Xu account room to pay the money, and you will be busy with this during this time." ”
Hua Niang has no objection to Xiao Yue's suggestion, and she has also seen the glorious past of Fengyi Inn, and she also hopes that Fengyi Inn can change its appearance and return to the previous overcrowded situation.
Xiao Yue arranged a job for Hua Niang, and rushed to Jiang Shangyue Restaurant non-stop, because the backyard was full, so she and Yun Yan temporarily sat in the private room on the second floor, and Xiao Er made them new tea and sent some snacks.
When the two settled down, they heard Mr. Sheng talking in a low voice.
Xiao Yue pushed open the door of the private room and looked into the atrium of the hall on the first floor, where Mr. Sheng was sitting, holding a shocking wood in his hand, shaking his head and telling a story about filial piety.
Yun Yan also followed out curiously, "Childe, you see it's not noon yet, and there are a lot of people in the restaurant." ”
Xiao Yue looked around and found that there were not many people eating at this point in time, and many people seemed to come to listen to the story deliberately.
"This Mr. Sheng really deserves his reputation, and the person recommended to me by Bai Siye is really good. ”
Yun Yan smiled and said: "This Mr. Sheng has a strange temper, ordinary people don't move, I also think it's strange, how can he talk here for so long, I thought he wouldn't stay long before leaving." ”
Xiao Yue smiled proudly and said: "You forgot that Bai Siye told me before that the teahouse asked Mr. Sheng to talk about a book, five to ten copper plates, and then I asked Xu Chengchang to tell Mr. Sheng that we are not here at this price." ”
Yun Yan blinked mischievously, "Could it be that the price offered by Gongzi is higher, so Mr. Sheng is reluctant to leave?"
Xiao Yue smiled slyly, then shook her head, "I didn't offer a higher price, but I asked Xu Chengchang to tell him that when he was talking to us here, a guest came to the store to eat, drink tea, and the final amount of consumption would be divided into 10% for him." ”
Yun Yan was puzzled and said, "It's not much money to divide one percent." ”
Xiao Yue explained: "It's true that there isn't much money to eat a meal alone, but if there are more people, it's considerable, not to mention that some people are not here for him, they are regular customers of the restaurant, isn't he making money for nothing?"
After listening, Yun Yan's eyes widened, "So that's the case, no wonder Mr. Sheng worked so hard and started talking in the morning." ”
Xiao Yue sighed with emotion: "There is a way that money can make ghosts grind, this Mr. Sheng received a salary of three taels of silver last month." ”
"What?!" Yun Yan said in surprise, "Oh my God! ”
Xiao Yue said with a smile: "You know that I can share a hundred taels of silver from the restaurant every month, and it is normal for him to be able to divide a few taels." ”
Yun Yan was a little unconvinced and said, "This salary is too high, and the son is not afraid of spoiling him?"
Xiaoyue said proudly: "You see that he is spoiled there, I let the shopkeeper talk to the outside world, all the storytellers know that we have a high salary here, and more people come to us to tell stories, I told the shopkeeper that if you meet a good gentleman who has a storyteller, let him come to us to try to speak, take care of food and housing, if you can compare Mr. Sheng, just stay, they tell at different times, if you can't exceed Mr. Sheng's, give a few copper plates, and ask him to leave." ”
"Wow!" Yun Yan looked at Xiao Yue with admiration and said, "Childe, in this way, doesn't Mr. Sheng need to show his housekeeping skills?"
"Yes, so if there is competition, I am not afraid to get used to him. After saying that, Satsuki went back to the private room.
The two of them didn't sit in the room for a few minutes when they heard someone knocking on the door, Yun Yan got up to open the door, and just saw a person who looked like a scholar in white standing at the door.
When Yun Yan saw this person's face, she asked, "Who is Gongzi looking for?"
This person raised his hand and paused to be full of rules, gave Yun Yan a bow, and said with a gentle attitude: "May I ask if it is Wen Gongzi sitting inside." ”
Yun Yan looked back at Xiao Yue, who shook her head at her, indicating that she didn't know her.
Yun Yan then asked, "May I ask who you are?"
This person did not directly identify himself, but named Yun Yan's identity, "Miss Yun, I saw you in Bailan Bookstore." ”
Yun Yan said a little impatiently: "This son, I don't remember seeing you, please ask your name." ”
The man still said tepidly: "The contemptible surname is Lin, and the single name is one language." ”
When Yun Yan heard this name, she was suddenly stunned, and she said to herself: "Why is this name so familiar?"
The man smiled and said, "It turns out that Miss Yun has heard my name, this is really my honor. ”
Yun Yan thought for a long time, and suddenly remembered, she pointed at this man and scolded: "How can you be Lin Yu, isn't Lin Yu an old man?"
Xiao Yue listened in a fog, "What Lin language, what old man, you go into the house to talk." ”
Yun Yan blocked the door and didn't let the man enter the house, "Childe, ask clearly, lest a liar who came from nowhere to blackmail us." ”
The man was still not angry, and said gently: "Miss Yun, it is Lin Yu again, if you don't believe it, you can ask Fourth Master Bai to testify." ”
Yun Yan snorted, "Fourth Master Bai is in Yuzhou now, let him testify and don't know how many days he will come back, you think of a way to prove that you are not a liar." ”
Xiao Yue pretended to cough a few times, and Yun Yan realized that she was a little aggressive, and she sneered: "Childe, this person... ”
Xiao Yue said: "It's okay, whoever comes is a guest, come in and talk." ”
Yun Yan leaned sideways to the stranger, and half-squatted and saluted, "Young Master Lin, please come in." ”
This self-proclaimed Lin Yu's cultivation is extremely high, and he has been troubled by Yun Yan for a long time, but his face still does not change, he smiled and said, "Thank you, Miss Yun." Then, he stepped into the private room and saw Satsuki clenching his fists.
"Presumably this is Gongzi Wen, I have admired him for a long time!"
