The ingenious house was as full as ever, but just when the guys were busy entertaining the waiting area.

A burst of firecrackers rang out, and everyone looked at it, and they saw that the tavern on the side was holding a grand opening ceremony.

The lion dance team performed back and forth on wooden stakes at the door, and outside the door, men dressed in uniform held fresh strawberries in their hands for the onlookers to taste.

The guys enthusiastically advertised the store, and they were still shouting.

"Our store is open today, but if you enter the store to consume, you can get a strawberry fruit, all discounts during the opening period, and there are also theatrical performances, so don't miss it when you pass by."

Hearing this, who was originally waiting in the waiting area, everyone looked at each other and put down the drinks in their hands and started to come to the door of the store together.

Standing in front of the lion dance team, the people looked up and saw the golden plaque engraved with the three big characters of Qiaoyi.

The people present looked at each other in confusion, and the sound of discussion also sounded.

"Could Qiaoyiju also be a branch of Qiaoyiju?"

"It may be, but the Yanji Tavern opposite is not a branch of Qiaoju."

"That's right, the clothes you wear are also the same, and there are also theater performances to watch."

"Then what are we waiting for, since there is a place, it is better to go in and have a look."

The words fell, and the crowd of onlookers swarmed into the Qiaoyiyi Tavern with a word.

Seeing that the source of customers was gradually losing, the guy who was entertaining guests outside couldn't bear to run back to Qiaoju to inform Liu Qiaoer and Xu Xiaoxiao.

At this time, the two of them were counting the accounts in front of the counter, and they saw the guy who was sweating and panting for breath.

"What's wrong?"

"The big shopkeeper and the second shopkeeper, no, there is a tavern next door that is one word different from our clever residence."

"What did you say?" Liu Qiaoer's face changed greatly when she heard this, she hurriedly put down her abacus and walked out of the counter with her buddy trotting out of the door.

Xu Xiaoxiao was silent for a while, and then put down the wolf in his hand and followed.

Several people came to Qiaoyi, looking at the ceremony that was exactly the same as their opening, and they were resentful.

"This tavern is so shameless, even the name is plagiarized." Liu Qiaoer walked into the tavern angrily.

The tavern is full, and the interior decoration is exactly the same as that of the ingenious house, the same ingredients of the hot pot, the same free fruits and drinks.

Even the way the guys entertain their clients is the same as that of Ingenuity.

Liu Qiao'er was so angry that she couldn't wait to pull out the shopkeeper of this tavern and teach her a good lesson.

Xu Xiaoxiao was worried that Liu Qiao'er would follow her impulsively, she looked at Liu Qiao'er in front of her anxiously and her face turned red with anger, she said comfortingly, "Don't worry, fake is always fake." ”

Alin, who was busy entertaining guests in the lobby, spotted the two of them, and he came to them impatiently.

"Are you two here for dinner?"

Liu Qiao'er looked at Alin and gritted her teeth, "Shameless, even the name is plagiarized." ”

"Shopkeeper Liu, but be cautious, what about the law that says you can't open an identical tavern? What's more, in today's world, why not choose cheap delicacies that you can eat? Arin disagreed, and proudly raised the corners of his mouth and waved behind him.

He had long known that Liu Qiao'er and Xu Xiaoxiao would come to make trouble, so he informed Shopkeeper Wang in advance and asked him to send a few thugs in the tavern.

The tall and mighty thug came behind Alin with a black face and a vicious voice.

Xu Xiaoxiao protected Liu Qiao'er behind her, and the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, "Water can carry a boat and capsize a boat, so it's good to do it." ”

After speaking, she pulled Liu Qiao'er and left Qiaoyi.

Alin snorted a few times in disdain, turned around and continued to greet the guests who entered the store.

Liu Qiao'er entered the back room of the ingenious house in a hurry, she gulped down the tea in her hand, and her resentment was blocked in her heart and could not be dissipated.

"What are you afraid of him?"

Xu Xiaoxiao sat beside Liu Qiao'er indifferently, poured down the tea and took a few sips, since he said slowly, "I'm not afraid of him, but there are so many guests in the tavern, if you really want to make trouble, it will only make people say that we are small, who do you say will be the last Bo's reputation?" ”

Liu Qiao'er stopped arguing and closed her lips when she heard this, but she really couldn't swallow this politeness, although our quality is first-class freshness on Chang'an Street, the price is still more expensive than ordinary taverns.

In this way, Qiaoyiyi next to her is really suppressing the price, but I am afraid that she will soon lose customers.

In order to cope with the full supply of customers, she also recruited another batch of guys, who are still in training, if their popularity weakens, I am afraid that the new and old guys will face the danger of losing their jobs.

Xu Xiaoxiao drank the tea calmly, and glanced at the impatient Liu Qiaoer, she raised her hand and patted the back of Liu Qiaoer's hand, "Don't worry, this kind of replication business model is not uncommon in modern times, why be angry, as long as you work quality and service and innovation, customers will make choices." ”

"That being said, there are only so many customers, and there are few people who can come out to eat in this world, so if such a thing happens, I'm afraid that the money in our hands will not be able to support the rent of the store and the money of the workers." After listening to Xu Xiaoxiao's comfort, Liu Qiaoer's irritable heart eased a lot, but she was still worried about the future.

Xu Xiaoxiao knocked on the table silently, she really needed to further prepare a batch of funds due to the risk of reduced flow of people.

Once the working capital is gone, it will be difficult to pay the wages and rents of the workers, which will also cause other industries.

"I'll go to shopkeeper Liu to talk, the tea should be able to be picked recently, and it can be delivered after picking, and a batch of funds will come out at that time, plus I still have a batch of money in Zhao's shopkeeper's hands, which should be able to carry it."

"Okay, so what's next?"

"Don't worry about the new products, I've eaten a lot more food than them."

Xu Xiaoxiao's sly eyes flashed, and a wicked smile appeared on his face.

At this time, Liu Qiaoer was completely relieved.

Time was pressing, Xu Xiaoxiao hurriedly got into the carriage with Liu Qiaoer and came to Liu's mansion.

As they got into the carriage and left, Arin hid in the shop and watched the two of them leave the tavern, after which he crept through the lobby to the back kitchen.

He came to the courtyard of the back kitchen, opened the back door of the courtyard, and a figure appeared in front of the back door, and he smiled and looked at the carriage behind the figure.

The carriage was filled with fresh vegetables, fruits, and drinks.

Alin smiled and checked around the carriage, then took out the tomatoes from the carriage and ate them, which were sweet, juicy and tender.

He nodded in satisfaction, then took out a stack of silver taels from his bosom and handed it to the person opposite.

"Work hard, let's make a lot of money together in the future."

The man licked his fingertips, then counted the silver tickets in his hand, and nodded happily.

The carriage crossed Chang'an Avenue and came to the mansion of the shopkeeper Liu.

Lin Chong was very surprised to see Xu Xiaoxiao and Liu Qiao'er appear in front of Zhumen, and when he knew the purpose of the two of them, he welcomed the two into the study.

In the study, Shopkeeper Liu sat on the Taishi chair, and Liu Yuan sat on the high stool on the side.

"You're saying the tea leaves are ready to be picked?" Shopkeeper Liu put down the wolf and asked suspiciously.

Xu Xiaoxiao nodded, "Yes, you can deliver a thousand catties the day after tomorrow." ”

"A thousand pounds?" Liu Yuan stood up from the stool excitedly.

He knew that Xu Xiaoxiao had a tea garden, but he didn't expect that he could pick a thousand catties of tea leaves.

Not only Liu Yuan was surprised, but even the shopkeeper Liu felt incredible, he had been in business for many years and was not as easy to fool as Liu Yuan.

What he found incredible was not the yield of the tea plantation, but why Xu Xiaoxiao was able to grow so much tea in such a short period of time.

She has only been in Xin'an City for less than half a year, and according to the growth time of tea, it is completely incorrect.

"Miss Xu, when did you plant the tea garden?" Shopkeeper Liu squinted at Xu Xiaoxiao suspiciously, and asked in a low voice.

Xu Xiaoxiao chuckled a few times, her face was not in a hurry, she had already communicated with Chu Qing when she proposed to cooperate with Shopkeeper Liu, and once Shopkeeper Liu asked, she would use him as a shield.

Chu Qing has always been secretive, and it is not surprising that he grows tea secretly.

"It was planted by the prince before, I managed and sold it for him, and the prince called me a commission after the tea was sold."

Her answer was seamless, and even Lin Chong, who had always been cautious, couldn't find a flaw.

Shopkeeper Liu instantly understood when he heard this, it would not be strange if the prince planted, the prince had always had the idea of revitalizing Xin'an City, and asked him many times to discuss how to restore the prosperity of the city.

It seems that the prince is still thoughtful, and thinks in advance that the price of tea is getting more and more expensive day by day.

"How much is a pound of tea now?"

"I'm picking silver needles now, and the price is one tael and one catty."

"One or two?"

Liu Yuan looked at the shopkeeper Liu in surprise, one tael and one catty and one thousand catties are one thousand taels, which is not a small amount.

Shopkeeper Liu also felt embarrassed, it was not a problem for him to take out a thousand taels at once, but now the world is chaotic, and there is no silver in his hand, so it is easy to have an accident.

Xu Xiaoxiao naturally knew that looking at the shopkeeper Liu's embarrassed expression was naturally clear, she hurriedly explained, "You don't need to pay it all at once, you have to sell it first, just give me a deposit of 30%, and then make up it after the sale." ”
