After returning home, Shen Yuyu got busy. He washed the grass jelly and boiled it into a thick juice. He filtered out the residue and poured an appropriate amount of rice milk into it. In ancient times, there was no plantain flour. Use this instead. When it is almost cooked, pour it into a basin. Add honey, mix well and let it cool. After cooling, touch it with chopsticks and pop it into pieces. It will look very appetizing.
Chill it with well water, cut it into pieces of suitable size, and put it into bowls, sprinkle with chopped peanuts, candied dates, and raisins. Each person holds a bowl. It's delicious and refreshing, and you can't stop eating it.
The next day, Ji Xun and Shen Yuyu went to Dahe Town. They first went to Baohe Hall to have a look, chatted with Dr. Liu Xiaocheng and settled accounts, and then went to Yaxing Lane to inquire about the Wang family's old house.
Unexpectedly, it was actually listed for sale in a tooth shop. When I asked about the price, it was 80 taels of silver. A house of such a big size only sold for 80 taels of silver, with such a wide land and such a good location. There was also a separate road leading to the house. It cost only 80 taels of silver. Silver is really not expensive.
Shen Yuehu and Ji Xun immediately bought the house and waited for two or three years before Shenjia Village became "Taoyuan Village". There was plenty of room for appreciation in the value of the land.
After paying the money and getting the title deed, Shen Yuyu happily kept it, feeling that she was about to become a landlord. The two large houses in Shenjia Village were not a landlord.
Thinking about the time when I traveled through time a few months ago, I was huddled in a cave at the foot of Dongshan Mountain with Ji Xun and Jifeng’s family. How long did it take for me to become a serf and start singing! It’s wonderful.
After buying the land, Ji Xun and Shen Yuyu drove their carriage to the county and cashed the six thousand taels of silver notes into cash.
Early the next morning, I went to Baijia Village and distributed two taels of silver to each of the farmers polluted by the iron mine in the name of President Yao of Qinglin Academy. Fortunately, there was a lot of rain this year. After the rain washed away the contaminated land, it was restored. It's going pretty fast, and the fields should be able to be cultivated soon.
After a busy day, I returned to the county in the evening.
When Shen Yuxi passed by the Xiuyi Shop, Shen Yue glanced over twice, but did not see the three sisters-in-law. He calculated that it had been a month since they left.
Before he finished speaking, someone picked up the conversation: "Hey? Why is Miss Shen so confident?" The person who came was Mei Niang, the owner of Cai Die Xuan, the largest, most luxurious and most popular restaurant on Tai'an Street.
Shen Xingwang's business is getting smarter and smarter now. These days, he has renovated the store, purchased all kinds of fabrics and threads, and has everything ready, just waiting to open.
"Who is this? You're making fun of people before you even open your business. You really don't have a good heart." The second sister-in-law muttered.
After signing the contract, the question returns to how to open the business.
"Congratulations to the three sisters-in-law, they will be craftsmen from now on." Shen Yuyu was also very happy.
After parking the carriage, I ran to the door and took a look. Sure enough, the door was open.
As her name suggests, Mei Niang has red phoenix eyes and cherry lips, and her eyes are charming and enchanting. She is tall and is a natural dresser. At this moment, she is wearing a pink cross-neck skirt that makes her look more gorgeous than a peach blossom.
Shen Caixuan smiled heartily: "Er Niang said that our craftsmanship is the fastest and best among those she has taught. Look at what we are wearing? We are all made by ourselves." As they spoke, the three of them turned around with their skirts in hand. They stood up and let Shen Yuyu admire their masterpieces.
"Sister Yu Yu, are you back?" Seeing Shen Yu Yu walking in with a smile, the three sisters-in-law gathered around happily.
The reason why Mei Niang came to visit was because of Shen Yue's name. Shen Yue's failed brothel, Fengming House, was transformed into Fengming Restaurant and became an instant hit.
Shen Yuyu smiled and said, her voice full of determination: "Don't worry, open it first. After opening, I will naturally be confident that the business will get better.'
Shen Yuyu remembered Mei Niang and Cai Die Xuan. When she was making clothes for her family a few years ago, she went to Cai Die Xuan to ask about the price. People were so arrogant that they seemed to ignore the yin and yang, as if country people were not worthy of wearing their clothes from Cai Die Xuan.
Therefore, craftsmanship alone is not enough, you must innovate in style.
Mei Niang had forgotten about Shen Yuyu. There were so many country people who were driven out of the store by them. How could she remember so many of them?
"Boss Mei Niang came to our place, what's the matter?" Shen Yuyu asked calmly, although he didn't want to offend her, but colleagues are enemies. When your business is bad, people will laugh at you, and when your business is good, they will be sour~ ~This is true in every line of work.
"Why are you talking? We haven't opened yet, what do you mean by saying such unlucky words?" Sister-in-law Shen Caixuan took two steps forward, and her strong body almost touched Mei Niang.
After seeing it, Shen Yue thought it was indeed good. Both the tailoring and the workmanship were very good, but the style was the same as that of other ready-to-wear stores, without any special features.
You just revitalized a restaurant, do you really think that you are the best in everything? A good restaurant does nothing but wants to get involved in it, a girl who doesn’t know the heights of the world~~ is not pleasing to the eye!
Mei Niang had a charming smile on her face, but her voice was not very kind, "It's nothing, I just came here to advise you, don't lose everything."
Just as I was thinking about it, my sister-in-law couldn't help but said: "Sister Yu Yu, we have learned the craftsmanship and will be ready to open tomorrow. We just do it and leave the rest to you."
The third sister-in-law, Shen Jiao, brought over four contracts at this time: "Brothers have settled accounts. This is the first time for us, sisters-in-law and sisters, to do business together. There is no other meaning in signing a contract. It just makes it more formal, not a random group of people." ."After that, everyone laughed. The contract was naturally signed, and the four people shared the dividends equally.
Shen Yuxi was right. Mei Niang came here to watch the joke. As soon as she walked in and heard Shen Yuxi boasting about Haikou, saying that it could improve business, she almost burst into laughter.
If you want to be a restaurant, just be a restaurant, and you actually opened a tailor shop~~ This made Mei Niang secretly cover her mouth and snicker, a cook~~Pfft~~Although they are all touched by 'knives', they are thousands of miles apart, if this is For her to be able to do it would be an insult to the entire Tai'an Street~~
Mei Niang smiled half-heartedly and looked at Shen Yuyu with contempt.
Mei Niang exited the store and sneered: "I'm kindly reminding you, don't treat it like a donkey liver and lungs. You will cry when it goes bankrupt. By the way, if it can't be opened anymore, you can sell the fabric to me at a 30% discount. At least you can recover some capital." After saying that, he twisted around and left.
Shen Jiao said, "Since this Mei Niang is so arrogant, let's show her how to do business well so that we can hurt her a little bit next time." Shen Yuyu glanced at Mei Niang's back and said nothing.
The next day, after a burst of firecrackers, the 'Nishang Pavilion' was officially opened. They were all members of the family, setting off a few strings of firecrackers for a while. After the excitement, everyone gradually dispersed, and there were only three sisters-in-law left in the shop, which was deserted. .
"Where's sister Yu Yu?" Shen Caixuan asked.
"Go back to the restaurant, right?" Shen Hui replied softly.
"Impossible, she must have gone to other ready-made clothing stores to check the market. Let's make the clothes first and put them at the door to make samples." Shen Jiao said, and the three of them began to choose clothing materials.
