Chapter 298: Opening of the business
Gu Jingcheng's imperial examination has come to an end, and now he just needs to wait for the results.
Although I still have to study, I don't have the same sense of urgency as before.
Gu Jingcheng originally wanted to go to the shop with Su Xiaomu, but Su Xiaomu was worried about his injury in the past few days exams, so he didn't agree to him, but let him rest at home, if he had to move, he would help her water the flowers, and take care of the flowers and plants planted in her yard.
Coming out of the small courtyard, Su Xiaomu went to find Mrs. Shoufu first.
Speaking of business, there are definitely not too many backers to find.
Before, because of Gu Jingcheng, Su Xiaomu also had some contacts with the Shoufu Mansion, and Lin Yu owed them a favor for the matter of the Xingyue County Lord, and it was just right to use it at this time, after all, this favor was left behind, and I don't know if people are willing to honor it.
Su Xiaomu brought a lot of pastries made by herself to the Shoufu Mansion, and after a few words of greeting with Mrs. Shoufu, she talked about the cooperation.
And also said that Mrs. Wuding Marquis also took a stake in her business.
This Shoufu wife and Lu Nianyou are friends in the boudoir, and after they got married, they often had contacts with each other because of their husband's affairs, so they have maintained a friend relationship since then.
"Nianyou used to feel that doing business was troublesome, except for those shops in her house, Zhuangzi, she didn't like to get involved in other people's business, I didn't expect you to be able to make her not too troublesome, so according to what you said, I also want to see what you can do in this business."
Mrs. Shoufu admired Su Xiaomu, took the initiative to let her sit beside her to talk, and asked Su Xiaomu about Gu Jingcheng's imperial examination: "This is very lively at the gate of the Gongyuan yesterday, and many scholars gathered in the big and small wine shops in the capital to discuss the exam questions after the exam, your husband, are you with them?" ”
"That's not true, I thought he must be tired after so many days of exams, so let him rest at home for a while, and then go out to the poetry meeting, Mrs. asked about this, but what was wrong with those scholars yesterday?"
Su Xiaomu was curious about Mrs. Shoufu's words, and followed her question.
"How?" Madame shook her head, "I'm just curious to ask, how much money do you need, go tell my grandma next to me later, and let her take you to get it." ”
Seeing that Su Xiaomu's face was the same, Mrs. Shoufu suppressed the doubts in her heart, and after a few words with her, she asked Su Xiaomu to leave.
And Su Xiaomu could probably guess that something must have happened in the capital yesterday, but what she shouldn't know, Su Xiaomu would never be curious.
She didn't think much of it, took the money and left.
With the help of the Shoufu Mansion and the Marquis of Wuding's Mansion, Su Xiaomu quickly found a suitable shop in the capital to reopen.
Su Xiaomu found another place, but after she gained a firm foothold here, sooner or later, the Dingxi Hou Mansion would spit out her original shop and return it to her with interest.
The reopening of Xiyue Pavilion attracted a lot of old customers to take care of the business, so Su Xiaomu earned a lot of money on the first day.
The subordinate who was originally bought from Renyazi also followed the work in the Xiyue Pavilion this time.
However, I haven't started the beauty and massage industry for a long time, and many people are a little handy, Su Xiaomu is busy training them and taking care of the guests, almost very busy.
"Send this to the second floor to the guest at the door of the private room, and then remember to come out to greet the guest on the first floor, and immediately arrange for someone to clean up after the guest leaves, we must not have any health hazards, do you know?"
Su Xiaomu told her subordinates that her tired throat was dry and about to smoke.
Just as she was about to go out to the front desk to check today's accounts, she suddenly saw a familiar figure at the front desk.
"Gu Jingcheng?"
Su Xiaomu walked up to him with a shocked face, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Why did you suddenly come here?" ”
"It's boring to stay at home, I'll come over to help you settle the accounts, don't say, you have a lot of guests, if you don't have a reliable person in charge of this account book, I'm afraid that there will be a lot of problems on your first day of business."
Gu Jingcheng was seriously calculating the account book, and occasionally raised his head to talk to Su Xiaomu.
There was a seriousness between his eyebrows and eyes at the moment, so that Su Xiaomu couldn't take his eyes off him at all.
"That'...... Thank you very much. ”
Su Xiaomu's heart was warm because of his help, and just as she was about to do something else, she suddenly noticed that a lot of eyes were converging here.
Looking up, good guy, almost all the people at this door are female guests, and female guests, regardless of their age, are always reluctant to leave their eyes after seeing Gu Jingcheng.
There were even many guests who stopped and stared at Gu Jingcheng directly, and Su Xiaomu, a person who usually prides himself on being thick-skinned, is a little embarrassed.
In desperation, Su Xiaomu directly pulled Gu Jingcheng, who looked confused, to the private room.
Hey, so there's a private room that can't be used to make money for the time being, and it's really heartbreaking to think about it.
"You settle the account here, I'll come to you when the door closes, and we'll go back together."
Su Xiaomu thought about it and brought Gu Jingcheng some tea and food, telling him to stay here so that he wouldn't be bored.
"You eat first, and then if you still want it, ask someone to settle accounts for you outside, and the guests always have to look at you when they come in and out, which affects my business."
"Okay, you don't want me to be looked at by others, so naturally I have to listen to Madame's words and hide myself well."
Gu Jingcheng was still wondering why Su Xiaomu wanted to pull him here like this just now, but now he finally figured it out.
Not only did he figure it out, but he was also very happy because of this incident.
"What you said is not wrong at all, I am just afraid that others will look at you, then you remember to stay here and don't show your face in front of others again, otherwise I will be unhappy."
A bright smile bloomed on Su Xiaomu's face, she deliberately approached him, she looked at the enlarged handsome face in front of her, and said with a smile: "If you are disobedient, I don't want you." ”
"How?" Gu Jingcheng raised his eyebrows, "Naturally, I listen to Mrs. all." ”
——
Su Xiaomu's business was booming, and it didn't take a few days for Xiyue Pavilion to completely open up his reputation in the capital.
When Liu Lu knew that Su Xiaomu actually dared to open this shop again, he was angry and threw a lot of things at home.
He originally wanted to go to Su Xiaomu for trouble on the first day of opening, but after learning about it, he realized that she actually had her back to Lin Yu and Wu Dinghou, which really made people grit their teeth angrily.
Liu Lu is a well-known gentleman in the capital, and Dingxi Hou also enjoys power in the capital, but even if he is from such a background, he is repeatedly ordered by his family, and some people must not be offended.
