The two of them just finished eating their noodles, so they put down their chopsticks and headed to the inn lobby.
"I've met Miss Shen, Mr. Ji." The housekeeper greeted with a smile on his face and held an invitation in his hands, "Tonight's dinner at the Governor's Mansion, I would like to ask Mr. Ji, Miss Shen, to show your respect.'
Hearing the words "Prefect's Mansion", Shen Yue thought of Ding Xiaolian and went to her house to attend the family dinner~~ It would be quite embarrassing to meet him.
But now that I have come to Lingzhou, I will meet you sooner or later. Just when Ji Xun's questioning eyes came over, Shen Yue nodded slightly.
Ji Xun accepted the invitation.
"The governor's office is waiting for your presence." After saying this, the housekeeper bowed, got on the carriage and left.
I was busy at the inn all afternoon and recruited three women who were responsible for cleaning and taught them how to do hygiene.
"These places need to be wiped." Shen Yuyu wiped the window sill and raised his dusty fingers to show the ladies.
"Yes, big boss." Several women responded in unison.
"This carpet must be wiped with a wet hand towel every day to clean up all the dust and hair on it, and also underneath this carpet~~ See how dirty it is? You need to roll up the carpet and wipe the floor."
“The carvings on the bed are the easiest to accumulate dust and must be wiped daily.”
"After guests check out the bath tub, they take it to the backyard and wash it with soap powder before sending it to the guest room."
"When guests come in, they must greet them warmly and have a nice smile. When they book a room, they must introduce them into the room and ask if they need hot water. These are the basic services of an ordinary inn. If they are not done well, all wages will be deducted!"
The wages of the clerks were also doubled, and everyone enthusiastically responded in unison: "Yes, the big boss."
Standing behind is a young man in his early twenties, dressed gorgeously and looking proud.
After that, Shen Yuyu went to the backyard to inspect the hygiene conditions of the women who were unpacking and washing the bedding.
Yunlai Inn is located on Ping'an Street to the west of Lingzhou City, while the Governor's Mansion is located on Xingsheng Street to the north of Lingzhou City. It took the carriage more than half an hour to reach the Governor's Mansion.
The ladies were all shocked.
Such a new building in such a good location can be greatly improved with some casual management. It is not like the previous messy place where even a waiter could not be found.
"Miss Young Master, please show me your invitation."
Since Ah Xun needs money, she will definitely try her best to earn it, and breast-length mattress skirts are her "patent", which makes it easier to earn money than in other industries.
He is Ding Chengmin, the concubine of the governor's office. He was preparing to go to the banquet hall at this moment. When he encountered Shen Yuyu and Ji Xun, who were looking around like they had never seen the world, they stepped forward to show off their power.
"Who are you? Why are you wandering around the house? Do you know where this is?" The man was surprised when he looked at Shen Yuyu, but when he saw the deep scar on Ji Xun's face, he showed disdain. Undisguised.
Ji Xun and Shen Yuyu got out of the car and came to the gate of the Governor's Mansion, where the guards stopped them.
Of course, the reason why she dresses like this is not to compete with others. She is a businesswoman, so she will not miss such an advertising opportunity.
Ji Xun was wearing a light blue robe with a waist and a straight collar. His dark hair was half tied up and half down. He had handsome eyebrows and a long body. He was not deliberately arrogant but made people feel unattainable.
After being busy until four or five o'clock in the afternoon, Shen Yuehu and Ji Xun changed their clothes, packed up, and headed to the Governor's Mansion.
After reading the invitation, the guard made an invitation gesture to the mansion, "Mr. Ji, Miss Shen, please come inside."
These women also looked at water as a means of purification, and even did not put in the soap locust powder, so they did it perfunctorily.
The gate was full of carriages, and the governor was hosting a banquet. Naturally, all the prominent people in Lingzhou City would come to attend.
After Shen Yuyu asked about their previous wages, he felt that they were a bit low, so he tripled their wages on the spot.
Shen Yuyu wore a light blue and moon-white chest-length skirt, a snake bun, a hairpin with butterfly flowers and a gold hairpin inlaid with rubies. Her appearance was fresh, smart and refined.
Seeing that he dared to look at her husband like this, Shen Yuyu felt angry. Just as he was about to speak, Ji Xun shook her hand and said coldly and politely, "We are guests invited by Governor Ding. I haven't found a place to entertain guests."
After insulting the mother-in-law, Shen Yuhu called the four waiters over and lectured her.
The high-walled courtyard of the Governor's Mansion is majestic, with the large gilt characters "Lingzhou Governor's Mansion" shining in the setting sun. There are majestic stone lions on both sides of the gate, which add to the solemnity of the entire mansion.
The backyard is quite large, with enough space to dry bedding and a well. It is very convenient to clean bedding. Shen Yuxi saw some freshly washed bedding drying on bamboo poles, so he went over and took a look. Almost all of them were unqualified and not clean enough. All must be rewashed.
They arrived late and there was no one to guide them, so Ji Xun took Shen Yuyu's hand and walked in while enjoying the scenery of the courtyard leisurely.
Shen Yuyu opened her eyes wide, as if she had entered an antique park, with a lake for boating, a competing lotus pond, and a rockery pavilion and corridor. The palace is nothing more than that, right?
The two were walking when someone shouted from behind: "Stop." When Ji Xun and Shen Yue heard the voice, they stopped and turned around.
Shen Yuyu looked at them and said seriously, "I won't say much else. The reason why I give you such a high salary is to make you take your responsibility. The bedding must be cleaned every day, otherwise the wages will be deducted."
The ladies hurriedly said excitedly: "Don't worry, boss, we will wash the bedding clean and do a good job." Such a high salary is equivalent to doing the previous three jobs, can you do a good job?
Later, a big sign was specially made and placed in front of the store, "Hot water is free, service is free, price: Tianzihao 5 taels, Dizihao 2 liang, Renzihao. Prices are clearly marked, no arbitrary charges."
"I charge your wages higher than any other inn. If you dare to do anything perfunctory, I will deduct half of it."
Several ladies hurriedly responded respectfully: "Don't worry, boss, we will do this job conscientiously."
Ji Xun handed over the invitation.
Lu Chengmin pulled the corner of his mouth and stretched out his hand, "Humph, country bumpkin, where are your invitations?"
Shen Yuyu covered her mouth and smiled and said: "Master Ding, is he looking down on his father? The dignified governor actually invited two country bumpkins to the banquet! Pfft~~'
"You~~" Ding Chengmin became angry in embarrassment, "A sharp-tongued country girl, how dare you misinterpret my meaning."
He pointed to the door and said, "The banquet has already started. I think you two should go back, so as not to have to go to the banquet living room at this time and not even have a place to sit."
"Fuck you." Governor Ding rushed over with his robe in hand, raised his hand and slapped Ding Chengmin hard, "Get out, get back here, there is no need to attend the banquet tonight.'
Then he respectfully said to Ji Xun and Shen Yuyu: "Mr. Ji, Miss Shen, you two are blind, don't take it to heart, hurry, hurry, come here."
