Chapter Sixty-Four: Looking at the Prospect Inn and Looking at the Wine Workshop
In this way, the time of the week passed in a hurry. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoWhen Zhao Xiaoyong was still studying his leg method, his two small shops were almost ready.
The equipment in the winery has arrived, some apprentices have been recruited, and Qi Fan's mother has also taken over, just waiting for Zhao Xiaoyong's words, Qi Fan began to make wine. The apprentice also signed an agreement with Zhao Xiaoyong that the apprentice was not allowed to go out during his three-year apprenticeship. However, Zhao Xiaoyong generously gave double the salary on the market, so he recruited a lot of people.
The inn is still under renovation, according to Zhao Xiaoyong's meaning, the dining area and the accommodation area are separated, and high-end decoration materials are used, which is forced to be high. "The design of the garden, I used a sedan chair to carry Shi Qinglu over, and the whole garden must be beautiful and generous. Zhao Xiaoyong said. However, Zhao Xiaoyong still lacks all kinds of skilled workers, and Xiao Er and the chef must recruit some experienced and capable masters.
Liu Jinbao used his previous connections in Fanlou to find a few undesirable masters. However, some people gave up coming to Dengfeng because of the long distance. No, Zhao Xiaoyong spent a lot of money to dig up some people before he recruited enough people.
Zhao Xiaoyong introduced a bonus system, and the better the inn's business, the higher their wages. They croaked in excitement and waited for the inn to open.
Liu Jinbao wants Zhao Xiaoyong to have a name now. Everything is going on in an orderly manner, and you can open on an auspicious day with a name. This is Liu Jinbao's first time as a shopkeeper, and he is a little apprehensive and excited, and his various moods are indescribable. Liu Jinbao can only let himself devote himself to the construction of the inn in order to make himself forget this emotion.
After Zhao Xiaoyong came down the mountain, while thinking about what to buy for the sweeping monk, he was thinking about his own shop, and he wanted to give it a domineering name. There is no way, now Zhao Xiaoyong has money in his mind except money.
Zhao Xiaoyong first went to Qiao Sanhuai's house for a turn, and then went to the inn to see Liu Jinbao's renovation progress.
After Liu Jinbao saw Zhao Xiaoyong, he hurriedly ran up and said, "My lord, you are finally here." Now it's up to you to come up with a name. After the renovation is completed, you can choose an auspicious day to open. It seemed that Liu Jinbao was very excited, with a smile on his face. The clothes looked quite dirty, but they were still in good spirits.
When Zhao Xiaoyong heard this, he first praised Liu Jinbao for his ability, and then told Liu Jinbao to take care of his body. At this time, Zhao Xiaoyong saw from the book that caring for his subordinates can effectively improve their loyalty.
Although Liu Jinbao was very moved, Liu Jinbao now does not care about his body, but the name of the inn. Zhao Xiaoyong listened to Liu Jinbao's polite reply, and smiled: "I think about it, Longmen Inn." ”
This is the name given by Zhao Xiaoyong in memory of future generations. And this name has added a dragon character, and ordinary merchants dare not use this name. Zhao Xiaoyong's dream is to open this inn all over the Great Song Dynasty and become a giant, and the name must be unique.
"Longmen Inn? This sounds very heavy, are you sure the young master won't change it?" Liu Jinbao whispered a few times and replied.
"No, that's it. Later, we opened a branch and gave this name as well, and I wanted this name to resound throughout the Great Song Dynasty. Jinbao, this first stick will be handed over to you. Zhao Xiaoyong shook his head, and then looked at Liu Jinbao expectantly.
Liu Jinbao heard Zhao Xiaoyong's expectations and Zhao Xiaoyong's ambitions, and nodded excitedly.
Then, Liu Jinbao took Zhao Xiaoyong around the inn. Although there are still some decorations, it does not affect the viewing.
The front half of the whole inn is the dining area, and the first floor is the hall, but it is separated by several screens, if you want to eat together, you can remove the screens. The second floor is a private room, and there are some celebrity calligraphy and paintings in the private room, but they are all imitations. The third floor became a hall again, but there were only three tables. The whole decoration expresses the meaning of Zhao Xiaoyong, which is magnificent, luxurious and elegant.
The second half is the accommodation area, which is divided into four areas. Yong is a homophone of Yong, take the meaning of mediocrity, the decoration is similar to the outside inn, but the price is nearly twice as expensive. According to Zhao Xiaoyong's meaning, it is a presidential suite, and the price is also the most expensive, but the service is not said. Rong and Hua are somewhere in between. The four districts were divided and not clustered together.
The entire decoration of the inn made Zhao Xiaoyong pay a lot of silver, and 20,000 taels of silver were thrown into it, but it made Zhao Xiaoyong's flesh hurt for a while.
"Well done, Jinbao. That's it, and I'm looking forward to seeing what you do. Zhao Xiaoyong is very satisfied. I just don't know what Zhao Xiaoyong's expression will be if he loses money, but there is no word failure in Zhao Xiaoyong's dictionary.
After Liu Jinbao heard this, he scratched his head embarrassedly, although what Liu Jinbao said was methodical, but Liu Jinbao's heart was still lacking in confidence, after all, Liu Jinbao was just in his early twenties this year. Zhao Xiaoyong's words encouraged Zhao Xiaoyong to a certain extent.
At this time, Zhao Xiaoyong also saw that Liu Jinbao was a little lacking in confidence. Zhao Xiaoyong smiled and took out a waist card, which Zhao Xiaoyong "borrowed" from Zhao Maid. Jin Cancan's waist card had a maid word written on it, and Zhao Xiaoyong said with a smile: "When you open, you can take this waist card and put the blood of the prefect, he won't dare not come." When the prefect comes, I'll see you. ”
Liu Jinbao took a closer look at the waist card, and raised his head in surprise to look at Zhao Xiaoyong, he knew the huge value of this brand. Zhao Xiaoyong smiled and said, "I've already helped you make all the preludes." The rest is up to you. ”
"I will definitely not disappoint the young master. Liu Jinbao said excitedly, and then carefully put the waist card in his arms.
Zhao Xiaoyong smiled, then chatted with Liu Jinbao for a while, and then ran to the winery. Zhao Xiaoyong said in his heart: "I am really a hard-working little bee, and I don't have a beautiful woman to comfort me." But as soon as the industry is on the right track, it will be much better. ”
When he arrived at the wine shop, Qi Fan was supporting his wife and walking around the wine shop. Qi Fan's wife is only in her forties, but she looks like she wants to be in her fifties. It looked like he was injured on his leg, and he couldn't walk easily, so Qi Fan helped his mother.
Zhao Xiaoyong admires people who are filial to their parents, and it should be difficult for such people to betray them. Zhao Xiaoyong smiled and said to Qi Fan from a distance: "Qi Fan, are you busy?" After finishing speaking, he walked towards Qi Fan, and it was not good to let the old lady come over in person.
After Qi Fan saw Zhao Xiaoyong, he stood in place. After Zhao Xiaoyong passed, he first said to the old lady: "Old lady, you are Qi Fan's mother, right?"
"Yes, I'm Qi Fan's mother, Qi Fan works under you, what's wrong, please bear with me. It seems that the old lady knows that the person in front of her is her son's boss, and she uses honorifics when she speaks.
"You're polite, you're an elder, don't use you, just call me Xiaoyong. Qi Fan can come, it has helped me a lot, and you don't have to be so polite. What is your leg?" replied Zhao Xiaoyong politely.
"I used to work a lot on this leg, so I was a little inflexible, and I was a little old and tired to walk. But I'm not going to get in the way of my son's work. You, no, Hyoyong, you can rest assured. The old lady explained. She was afraid that Zhao Xiaoyong would dislike her and drag Qi Fan down, so she hurriedly explained. When Qi Fan heard this, his eyes turned cold and looked at Zhao Xiaoyong.
Zhao Xiaoyong smiled when he heard this. Shaking his head, he said: "Old lady, don't think of me as anyone! When you come to me, you are naturally my elder." My friend knows a miracle doctor who is known as the Enemy of Hades. I'll invite him to see you when I have time. ”
Qi Fan and his mother Wang were relieved when they heard this. A little grateful, Qi Fan also made up his mind. I said in my heart, "In the past three years, I must make wine well and study the wine scriptures left by my father." If I can really heal my mother's leg, what will I do for you for the rest of my life? ”
Zhao Xiaoyong didn't know about his decision to regain a top winemaker. Zhao Xiaoyong thought that he could take this opportunity to get acquainted with Xue Muhua, and it was better than coming to the door dryly later, saying, "I am your junior sister's godbrother, help me save someone." "It seems like a bit ideal.
Zhao Xiaoyong smiled at this time: "Qi Fan, the old lady will go back in a while, you go to the hall, I will discuss something with you." After finishing speaking, Zhao Xiaoyong went directly to the hall. This time, he planned to tell Qi Fan the secret of sorghum wine, that is, the brewing method of Erguotou. The sooner you start brewing, the sooner you make money.
After Zhao Xiaoyong left, Wang said to Qi Fan: "Your owner looks very kind, and it seems that you will not be troubled when you work under him." He'll help me find a doctor, but I don't know how good the medicine is?"
Qi Fan thought that Zhao Xiaoyong drove other first-class winemakers back to Huashan without hesitation, and felt that this Zhao Xiaoyong was not an ordinary boss.
"By the way, isn't your host looking for you? Mother has moved enough, help me back. Wang said suddenly.
Qi Fan reacted and nodded. After sending the old lady back, she walked directly to the hall.
