Chapter 165: A Beautiful Cash Cow
"In the past, there seemed to be a nightless song city, how did it become an urban beauty café?"
After getting off the bus at the destination, Ye Xiaolu looked left and right, she still had an impression of this place, Nightless Sky Song City, she was here for her birthday last time, but now this place has changed a lot, Nightless Sky Song City has become a four-story small building, and there is a boxy plaque hanging on the second floor, and there are several big lacquer words written on the plaque - Urban Beauty Teahouse.
"You will be the proprietress of this café in the future." Zhao Bin smiled: "How about Xiaolu? Are you not satisfied? "The antique decoration of the Urban Beauty Café is very refreshing in the city where historical sites have become increasingly scarce.
"You asked me to be the lady of this teahouse?" Ye Xiaolu asked Zhao Bin, and saw Zhao Bin nodding, "I can't do it, I'm still in college." Xiaolu was both happy and uneasy: "If I don't manage it well, won't it hurt you to lose money?" ”
"If someone else is responsible for the specific operation, you can be a female boss. Aren't you and Sun Man learning folk dance, the tea house on the second floor is your stage. The guests were drinking tea and watching folk songs and dances, and I thought business would be good. ”
Zhao Bin originally wanted to transform the Nightless Sky Song City into a leisure hotel, but in the end, he made an urban beauty café, one is a Chinese restaurant, the second floor is a tea house, the third floor is a small theater, and the fourth floor is a women's gym. The basement has been transformed into a large indoor skating rink, which integrates food, tea culture, leisure and entertainment, and fashion sports, which can be regarded as very distinctive.
"Why do I have to work for you two?" Sun Man was a little unhappy, and asked Zhao Bin and Ye Xiaolu with a smile.
Zhao Bin smiled and took out a contract from his bag: "After signing this contract, you are the female shareholder of Urban Beauty Teahouse." Sun Man hurriedly read the contract and said happily: "This urban beauty tea house is a joint venture between my mother and you?" I also have half of the shares? ”
Zhao Bin smiled and nodded, "The contract is clearly written, if it weren't for Aunt Li's help, I wouldn't be able to take over such a big business with my wallet alone." In the future, your vocal and dance team will not have to run around to perform, you will work for yourself, and the stage of the Beauty Café is built for the two of you, go in and have a look. ”
There is no need to look at the Chinese restaurant on the first floor, Zhao Bin led two big and one small girl to the tea house on the second floor. The black coffee table is dotted around, surrounded by rattan chairs, and there are several fashion magazines and a complete set of tea sets on the coffee table, which is quite ancient.
In the corners of the surroundings, there are several small boxes, no locked wooden doors, a line of cyan reeds, hanging curtains down, shaking can be seen, the decoration inside is more exquisite and exquisite.
The four of them ran to the front desk, and the wooden platform was almost twice as tall as Xiao Zhiqing, which made the little girl frown, so the little girl stretched out her hands to Zhao Bin, and Zhao Bin hugged the little Lori.
"Hello boss." A graceful woman in her twenties-fifteen years greeted Zhao Bin with a smile. She was wearing a moon-white women's sleeveless cheongsam, her head full of green silk was tied up with a wooden oath, and she fell behind her head, and her plain white round fingers deftly flicked the abacus beads, making a crisp sound.
"Su asked sister, why are you here?" Sun Man shouted in some surprise, it turned out that this woman named Su Wen used to be the foreman of Jugu Zhai and helped Mrs. Sun Li Yueqing do things.
"Hello Miss, Madame asked me to come here to do something." On Su Wen's forehead, fine beads of sweat oozed out, and her supple eyebrows tightened first and then loosened. It seemed that she had encountered some difficulties, but as soon as she saw Zhao Bin and Sun Man, her mood improved.
"Sister Suwen, you are so beautiful~!" Xiao Zhiqing's big eyes looked at Su Wen and said with a smile. Children don't lie.
"Hello Miss Zhiqing." Su Wen is Li Yueqing's right-hand man, and of course he knows Xiao Zhiqing. Zhao Bin introduced Su Wen to Ye Xiaolu again, "Xiaolu, this is Su Wen, the general manager of the Urban Beauty Café, Sister Su Wen, this is Ye Xiaolu, my girlfriend." ”
Ye Xiaolu looked at it, and the account book in front of Su Wen was densely written with large and small numbers, the most obvious thing was a wide variety of tea names, followed by a large list of arrears. The eyeballs are bigger.
"Sister Su Wen, you are really capable, I look at these account books, but you manage them in an orderly manner, and you really have a taste in this cheongsam, if you look like this in ancient times, it is really called out of the kitchen, into the hall, earn face, manage the silver, if any man marries you in the future, it is really a blessing." Ye Xiaolu is a person who looks sweet, and his mouth is even sweeter.
Su Wen was overjoyed by her praise, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up a soft amplitude, and he reached over and took Ye Xiaolu's hand and said: "Xiaolu, you are a young man, what about the flower and the moon, I will let you and the eldest lady make a cheongsam, you must be more beautiful than me when you wear it." ”
In the current market, to open a niche high-end tea house with the nature of a private club, the biggest cost is not the land, not the decoration, but the tea. The top famous tea is the Dahongpao of Wuyi Mountain, with 10,000 yuan per gram of tea, 500,000 yuan, and even only one or two.
The reason why Zhao Bin wanted to pull Sun Man's mother Li Yueqing and invest in this tea house together is to take a fancy to the connections of the Sun family, which can allow Zhao Bin to save a lot of expenses when he buys goods, but even so, Su Wen wants to buy some high-quality tea in order to retain the most tasteful guests, which also costs a lot of money.
However, high risk means high return, most of these most tasteful guests are willing to spend money, professional beautiful tea masters, brewing hundreds of thousands of yuan a pot of Da Hong Pao, these people can also afford to drink.
In short, the business of leisure tea houses is still very interesting to play classical cards, beauty cards, and professional cards.
"Is the boss here to inspect my work today?" Su Wen rubbed his temples, put down the account book and abacus, walked out from behind the counter, picked up the teapot with his hand, and made a pot of tea for Zhao Bin and them very professionally, and said with a smile: "How about the tea taste of our beauty teahouse?" ”
"Sister Su Wen is a professional tea artist, and the action of making tea is smooth and very ornamental." Zhao Bin took a sip of tea and said with a smile, this is why Zhao Bin invited her to be the general manager with a high salary.
"Hehe, in fact, almost every girl in Qingshi Town has the skill of making tea, as long as you ask two professional tea masters to train, you can basically get on the job, this time I recruited thirty female workers in Qingshi Town in one go."
Su Wen is a big expert in business, when Zhao Bin said that he wanted to invite her to engage in a tea house, play classical cards, play beauty cards, and play professional cards, she appreciated Zhao Bin's courage and vision.
Wuchuan's economy has taken off for many years, creating a group of billionaires who got rich first, and the money of these people has been earned by the owners of Western restaurants, and professional and high-end tea houses, not to mention in Wuchuan, are rare even in the whole country.
"Well, to run this tea house well, a good tea master is the key, and I'm going to spend a lot of money to find it in Japan." Zhao Bin knows that Chinese people like to drink tea, and those who can afford and drink tea are definitely elites from all walks of life. If this urban beauty café is well run, with the connections of the Sun family, it will definitely become the first choice of the upper class, and it is not uncommon for the annual profit to be tens of millions.
It's just that the tea ceremony originated in China, and was learned by the little devil in the Southern Song Dynasty, and later Mongolia destroyed the Song Dynasty, and the domestic tea ceremony was lost, but it was small Japan, based on my Chinese tea ceremony, and created the Japanese tea ceremony, Oda Nobunaga, Takeda Shingen, Tokugawa Ieyasu, in short, Japanese celebrities, all of whom are tea ceremony masters.
The essence of Chinese culture has been lost in China, but it has been carried forward in Japan and South Korea and other countries.
Su Wen nodded, and shook his head again. Zhao Bin didn't understand what he meant, and was about to ask, but Su asked himself and said with a smile: "Boss, if you really want to hire a good tea master, it is not practical to go to Japan, Chinese culture, broad and profound, folk masters, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, why do you want to go far." ”
As soon as everyone heard this, they all came to their senses, and Zhao Bin asked with interest: "Where is the master?" ”
Su Wen said with a smile: "The master is in our Qingshi Town, our Qingshi Town, in addition to many mines, it is also rich in another specialty, that is, teapots." In the past, in ancient times, bluestone tea ware was a tribute. ”
"That's right, the tea ware in Qingshi Town is very famous all over the world, since the Qingshi people are very good at making tea utensils, then there must be a master of the tea ceremony among the Qingshi people? Su asked my sister, don't sell Guanzi, you can say it quickly~! Ye Xiaolu actually wants to learn tea art, when Su Wen made tea just now, he was full of classical and graceful beauty, and he really envied Ye Xiaolu.
"Sister Suwen, aren't you just a master of the tea ceremony?" Sun Man said with a smile.
"I'm just an ordinary tea master, and I'm still far from the realm of a tea ceremony master." Su Wen smiled, "The tea ceremony master I'm talking about is my master, and she is also from Qingshi Town." ”
"Then Su asked my sister who your master is, is she as beautiful as you?" The curious doll Xiao Zhiqing couldn't hold back, and finally seized the opportunity to ask a question.
"Of course my master is also a beauty, she is a year younger than me, her name is Liao Jie." As soon as Su Wen finished speaking, Zhao Bin and Ye Xiaolu were stunned. "No, she's still a master of the tea ceremony?" Zhao Bin's face was full of disbelief.
"Wow, Sister Liao is so amazing, she is actually Sister Su Wen's master, a master of the tea ceremony!" Ye Xiaolu shouted excitedly.
"You seem to know her well, huh?" Sun Man and Su Wen asked in unison. "Of course, Sister Liao was my English teacher in high school with Zhao Bin, and we sent her back to Qingshi Town once a few days ago." Ye Xiaolu said with a smile.
"That's great, with such a relationship, it shouldn't be a big problem for us to invite her to the Beauty Café." Su asked for joy.
"Could it be a mistake? There are many people with the same name and surname. Zhao Bin still didn't believe it. Su Wen said with a smile: "The Liao family has been rooted in Qingshi Town for hundreds of years, do you know Lu Yu who wrote the "Book of Tea"? ”
Zhao Bin shook his head, he has always lacked knowledge of literature and history.
"Even the tea god Lu Yu doesn't know, are you still not from our Chudong?" Sun Man glanced at Zhao Bin, and then said with a smile: "Lu Yu is from our Qingshi Town, and the "Book of Tea" he wrote is a classic for planting tea, cooking tea, and drinking tea, and the ancestor of the Liao family, according to legend, is Lu Yu's son-in-law, and the true copy of the secret book of the "Book of Tea" should be in the Liao family." The "Book of Tea" circulating on the market is just a fake and a remnant. ”
"The authentic secret book of the "Book of Tea" is the heirloom of the Liao family?" Zhao Bin froze, he didn't expect the Liao family to be so big, and his ancestor was actually the true disciple of the ancient tea god Lu Yu?
"The people in Qingshi Town are so spreading, Qingshi Town is mountainous, the soil is thin, planting tea trees, the local temperature is not suitable, you can only take the soil to burn tea utensils, before the founding of the People's Republic of China, there are many people who make tea utensils in the town, at that time the largest tea merchant in the whole Chudong is the Liao family, and then the Liao family's family property is all lost, until Liao Qingzhi's generation, it was re-developed and started to be a mine boss. However, he himself is the number one tea ceremony master in Qingshan Town, and Liao Jie is his only daughter, at least there is a true biography of Lao Liao. ”
Zhao Bin listened to his thoughts, this Liao Jie is really my cash cow! It's my human flesh! Zhao Bin slapped his thigh excitedly: "I didn't say it, no matter how much it costs, I have to invite her here!" ”
