175 God of Wealth
More than a dozen ladies led by Mrs. Situ came slowly in a carriage. Also with him was Shen Qiuhua, the daughter of Shen County Ling.
Half of the ladies brought their own daughters, and there were still waiting maids behind them, and there were as many as thirty or forty people.
"This Gujia Village is really different from other villages, the road is very spacious and smooth." Mrs. Bai couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "The scenery is beautiful, the fields are neat, and I smell the air better than in the county." ”
Mrs. Zhou nodded: "The Wang family has also bought a house in Gujia Village, and it is said that Lord Shen also wants to buy a piece of land in Gujia Village, it seems that this is really a treasure of feng shui." ”
Shen Qiuhua smiled, neither showing closeness nor alienation from these people, "My father does have this plan, but if the family is thin, this matter can only be stopped!" ”
The group chatted and walked, and soon arrived at the entrance of the village.
Yang Huai at the entrance of the village had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw that they finally came, he immediately called the villagers to take them to Gu Qing's house.
Dozens of people faced the street full of people, and were almost scattered by the crowd.
Gu Qing, who was so frightened that he was watching on the second floor of Qingpei Pavilion, hurriedly came down from downstairs and joined them.
"The county lord is well." Mrs. Situ held Miss Situ's hand tightly, afraid that she would be squeezed away by the crowd, "I really didn't expect that there would be so many people at the Lantern Festival tonight, I would have come earlier!" ”
There are so many people, how much tax do you have to pay for the Youshui County Order, and how much political achievements do you have to help the Youshui County Order!
I'm afraid that this Shen County Order will be promoted soon.
Mrs. Situ's eyes were a little hot, and her eyes couldn't help but glance at Shen Qiuhua.
Shen Qiuhua looked indifferent and didn't care.
"I didn't expect it either!" Gu Qing laughed and led a few people towards his house.
"Mother, look at those lanterns are so beautiful! I've never seen it in the capital! ”
"Mother, look, there are still sky lanterns in the sky!" Miss Situ felt that she didn't have enough eyes.
"If Miss Situ likes it, I'll ask someone to fetch a few and send them to you."
"Do you hear that? Don't thank Lord Rongchang yet! Mrs. Situ patted Miss Situ's hand: "There are many people, follow closely, if you get lost, you can't find it!" ”
"Got it, mother!" Miss Situ stuck out her tongue, at the age of fourteen or fifteen, she looked very cute.
When a group of people arrived at the door of Gu Qing's house, two mighty and domineering stone lions stood in front of the door.
There are also two huge lanterns hanging at the door, and when you walk in, there is a small garden, and the courtyard pavilion is deep and secluded.
The crowd walked hundreds of steps before they reached the meeting room.
Mama Zhu immediately took Xia Zhu and a few people to serve tea and snacks to everyone.
I also arranged for the little guy to go to the street to buy a lot of special snacks back, the portion is not much but the variety is full, one person tastes a taste, dozens of kinds down, and then drinks a sip of milk tea, everyone is surprised to find that they have eaten!
Ten-year-old Miss Bai hiccups and is clamoring to go out to shop for lanterns.
Mrs. Bai was troubled by her quarrel, so she had to say goodbye first and leave with Miss Bai.
As soon as they saw Miss Bai leave, the other ladies couldn't sit still one by one.
More than a dozen ladies came here from afar, and it was impossible for them to stay in Gu Qing's house all the time, and they also knew in their hearts how important it was to Gu Qing today.
After tasting the special food, it is not good to disturb too much. They all got up to say goodbye and went out shopping.
There are too many delicacies in Gujia Village, except for sugar gourds, sugar paintings, and sugar fried chestnuts, the rest of these tourists have basically never seen it.
What octopus balls, ice cream, egg waffles, spicy tang, stinky tofu, barbecue, duck neck, braised chicken feet...... All kinds of desserts, cakes, drinks, and even Qingpei Pavilion have a lot of new dishes.
The chicken and fries burger, which was the most popular among children in the previous life, Gu Qing also copied all of them.
Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, the fried chicken is tender and juicy on the inside, and when you bite into it, your mouth is full of oil.
Sprinkle a thin layer of special chili noodles, that taste, you can't stop tasting it.
With fries, Gu Qing didn't let go of street food. Three classic potato recipes were selected.
Spicy baby potatoes, whirlwind potatoes, savoury potato wedges.
"What is this yellow thing, I've never seen it before."
"If you take a bite, you won't know, well, it's too delicious, soft and glutinous, and it's not enough to eat one bite."
"I'll try it too...... Oh my god, what the hell is this, I've never eaten it before. ”
"There is a writing here, which is native to Beichen and is called potatoes. Hey, it's still something from Beichen Kingdom, I can buy some more and go back to my family to taste it. ”
"There are tomatoes from Xiliang Country here, this thing is also the first time I've seen it, it's red, it's delicious to look at."
"Emma, you can only taste one bite of everything, and each one is better than the other. I can't even lift my hands here. ”
"What do you do with so much of it? Gujiacun won't run again. I heard that except for today, Gujia Village, like our county, has food and food sold every day. You come and eat a dozen things at a time, come a dozen times, and you're done! ”
“……”
A variety of food is laid out, and tourists line up to taste it one by one.
All the free food is a small bite, which is basically a taste for people to whet their cravings so they can buy them.
'Bang Bang Bang'
Several explosions sounded in succession, and fireworks bloomed in the night sky.
Jin Hua Niang stood in the crowd and shouted: "The food is always there, and the fireworks are fleeting." Fireworks are being set off on the second street, and ladies and ladies who like fireworks can go to the second street to watch the fireworks and set off the lanterns! ”
"Let's go, this queue is too long, let's go over there to watch the fireworks first!"
"I'll go too!"
Gu Qing climbed to the roof of Qingpei Pavilion, and just saw the flow of people on the food street, this scene is a fight with the modern Spring Festival.
On this day, the lantern festival lasts until the end of the hour.
By the time all the people on the street had dispersed, it was already early in the morning.
But even so, all the villagers did not leave, and they all stared at their temporary shopkeeper, the mall brother, to count today's turnover.
Yang Pei pinched the turnover of each store in his hand, and after crackling and calculating, he reported, "Today's Lantern Festival, the flow of people in Gujia Village has reached more than 100,000 people, and the capitation fee for entering the village is a total of 3,000 taels. ”
"The turnover of all the shops in the village has exceeded 1,000 taels." He continued, "The teahouse restaurant is even more crowded...... Excluding Qingpei Pavilion Qinghan desserts, the total turnover of Gujiacun today is 200,000 taels! After deducting one-third of the cost, the net profit is 133,000 taels. The total turnover and net profit of our own two stores is 7,000 taels! It has the highest turnover of any store. ”
Gu Qing nodded with satisfaction.
In ancient times, when communication was not developed, it was enough to attract 100,000 people, which is enough to prove the success of the Lantern Festival.
With this group of guests, Gujia Village will not worry about no guests coming to eat, drink and have fun in the future.
The villagers, who had been refusing to go back to sleep, could not sleep at all after hearing this number.
In just one day, the turnover reached 200,000 taels!
The net profit was 133,000 taels.
There are a total of 2,600 people in their Gujia Village, and each of them can get more than 50 taels of silver?
It's more than fifty taels a day, and these villagers don't dare to think about it. They all looked sideways at Gu Qing, their eyes didn't look like they were looking at people, but they were a little like they were looking at the God of Wealth.
