Xue Poye was very satisfied with this scene. He turned around and smiled slightly at Xiao Suzhen, who nodded with a smile.
Zhang Hu stretched out his thumb and whispered: "Brother Xue, I admire you!"
Xue Poye touched his nose and said easily: "Xiao Kesi!"
"Xiao Ke died?" Xiao Suzhen and Zhang Hu were both confused.
Xue Poye felt ashamed, touched his head and said: "It's just a trivial matter!" Since the play was going to this level, he naturally wanted to add fuel to the fire, stretched out his hand to signal everyone to calm down, and then said loudly: "You gentlemen's noble moral sentiments and I admire you greatly for your upright and awe-inspiring gentlemanly demeanor. A scholar is a scholar, and his consciousness is really high. You might as well think about it, if every sentence in this thousand-character statement is true, then you may be rewarded for your merits, and those who have a famous name on the thousand-character statement Gentlemen have a bright future!"
Those talented young men and young men with a good reputation immediately felt at ease. The shopkeeper's words were really pleasing to the people.
Xue Poye got a small needle from nowhere, pricked his left thumb in front of everyone, and a trace of blood spilled out. He pressed it on the Thousand Character Words simply and said solemnly: "I have no talent and no fame. I dare not sign or seal it, so I can only support Xiao Cainnu’s act of filial piety with blood!”
He is really a benevolent and righteous shopkeeper. He has great hope of becoming one of our gentlemen. The talented people appreciate him very much.
Now that someone has taken the lead and the knot in their hearts has been resolved, the talented young men and young men with fame and fame no longer hesitated and stepped forward to sign and seal. Those without fame claimed to learn from the shopkeeper's initiative and supported it with their blood.
The Thousand-Character Word can't always be covered with blood seals. In desperation, I had to come up with a way and found another big piece of silk. If you want to support it with blood, press the blood on the big silk, and then the Thousand-Character Word will be with it. The Qianziyan was presented, in addition to Xiao Suzhen's signature and handprint, it was Xue Poye's blood seal. Later, it was signed and stamped by the talented young man with the title. Because there were many people, Zhang Hu led his subordinates to organize everyone to arrange the seal. Get in line.
Xiao Suzhen thanked her profusely, her eyes moist.
After signing and sealing, Xue Poye asked Xiao Pinshi and Hu San to bring the wine and food. It was really a big banquet. The three floors were full, and more than thirty tables outside were also filled. The room was not enough, and the remaining They can only sit on the floor.
The food and wine had been prepared since last night. The banquet, with hundreds of tables, was really grand in scale.
Before the banquet, Xue Poye announced the simultaneous opening of Lan Yuexuan. With the sound of firecrackers and the lion dance team that Lao Song had arranged long ago, it was really lively.
The banquet was really silly, and suddenly someone suggested that Xiao Suzhen should show off her talents.
Xiao Suzhen received help from everyone today and couldn't refuse. She pulled Xue Poye over and said with a smile: "Uncles and brothers, the little girl is writing a word today and I will write it, but this word is written by shopkeeper Xue!"
All the talented young men asked curiously: "This shopkeeper can still write the poems that only us gentlemen can write?"
Naturally, everyone praised Xiao Suzhen, but everyone did not believe it. When Xiao Suzhen wrote the "Shui Diao Ge Tou", everyone was amazed. However, many people still doubted that it was not written by Xue Poye.
A calligraphy treasure inscribed by Xiao Suzhen himself, Xue Poye hung it in the lobby to attract business.
The feast did not break up until dusk.
Zhang Hu and Xue Poye said goodbye reluctantly before escorting Xiao Suzhen back home. Xiao Suzhen was quite reluctant to leave before leaving.
By the time everyone left, it was already night.
…
…
At midnight, everyone in Lan Yuexuan gathered together for a meal.
"Shopkeeper, we spent a total of three hundred and seventy-four taels of silver on this banquet!" Lao Song handed over the remaining silver.
Xue Poye smiled and said: "Thank you for your hard work!" He looked around at everyone, stood up and bowed, and said sincerely: "You have followed me, Xue Poye, to conquer the country. Today's banquet is a complete success. It is your credit. Xue is here
Thanks!"
Everyone looked at him with smiles and were very excited.
Xue Poye handed over the remaining twenty taels of silver to Lao Song again and said: "You divide this silver equally among everyone, except for the five children, each one has a share!"
The little fairy blinked and said, "Me too?"
One sentence immediately made everyone laugh.
Xue Poye laughed and said: "Yes, of course you have it too. If you don't want it, you can skip it!"
"I want it!" Little Spirit Fairy giggled and stuck out her tongue: "I'm exhausted, so of course I want it."
Xue Poye smiled and suddenly said seriously: "From tomorrow onwards, all expenses and income of the restaurant must be reported to Yuezhu. The income and expenditure of money will also be in charge of Yuezhu. Yuezhu needs to make a form every day to provide details of the expenses and income.
Divide it and give it to me for review." Yuezhu was a little shy and nodded in agreement.
Xue Poye ordered again: "Old Song is responsible for the daily management of the restaurant. His words are my words. Anyone who violates them will get out immediately." Old Song was very grateful.
He also said: "Pin Shi is responsible for purchasing. If the restaurant is short of anything, tell Yuezhu and give him some money to buy it. Hu San and your four brothers will wait in the restaurant for now. You must abide by the rules. If you continue to be idle as before,
Get out of here right now!" Everyone hurriedly said yes.
Xue Poye looked at the chef Lao Hu again and said with a smile: "Master Hu, you will take care of the kitchen affairs!" Lao Hu naturally nodded in agreement.
The little fairy wondered: "Then what should I do?"
"You?" Xue Poye touched his nose and smiled: "You are responsible for eating and sleeping!"
The little fairy glared at him fiercely and said ferociously: "Everyone has something to do, how about you?"
"Me?"
The same monthly salary... wages!"
Lao Song was naturally grateful.
Xue Poye cleared his throat and finally said: "You all work together, and again, Xue will not treat anyone badly. The better the restaurant business, the higher your wages will naturally be. At the end of the year, I will also
Bonuses will be given based on your daily performance. Whoever does well will receive a big red envelope at the end of the year!"
These words certainly made everyone very motivated.
After dinner, Xue Poye found a secluded place to practice Pi Kong Fist. After practicing it several times, he became more proficient. His whole body was sweating profusely, but he didn't feel tired. Instead, he became more energetic.
Go back downstairs, clean up, and go to bed.
I slept very comfortably that night. Once the thousand-word signing banquet was over, Lan Yuexuan announced that there was a big shock, and there was no need to worry too much about future customers.
Early the next morning, a carriage drove to Lan Yuexuan, and a charming and coquettish woman got out, holding a pipa in her arms and her almond-shaped eyes looking forward to it.
Xue Poye knew in his heart that this was naturally the girl sent by Piaoxiang Pavilion. She was wearing a green shirt and clear skirt, wearing silver jewelry on her head, and her brows were charming. She arrived on the second floor under the surprised eyes of everyone in Lan Yuexuan.
Xue Poye ordered someone to make a partition, and my sister sat behind the partition.
Xue Poye knew the meaning of "the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers can be heard deep in the forest". The more her sister loomed, the more the talented young men felt itchy and unbearable.
This girl's name is Cecilia. She is a popular girl in Pinxiang Pavilion. She has an excellent voice and knows how to seduce people, so she was sent as a pioneer by the Green Lady.
Xue Poye briefly introduced Yue Zhu and others, and the reason was naturally to get Yuexuan's business. Although Yue Zhu and other female relatives were very dissatisfied, the male headed by Hu San was elated.
Someone came to collect the rented tables and chairs and take them away. The sails were removed, and the outside was spacious again.
The first batch of guests came not long after. Five or six talented people came over waving fans and asked for a private room. When they saw a beautiful woman behind the curtain, they opened the door, listened to ditties, drank and talked and laughed.
"This girl's tune is really strange. It's very different from the usual tune!" The famous talent immediately discovered that Cecilia's tune was somewhat novel.
Once everyone was reminded, they immediately became interested.
Xue Poye saw it from the side and was secretly proud. It seemed that the strong cooperation between the restaurant and the brothel had initially yielded results.
Perhaps it was really because of the promotion of the leaflet and the reputation of the Thousand Character Banquet that Lan Yuexuan's business was extremely good that day. There was an endless stream of people coming and going, and everyone who came was riding a horse, sitting in a sedan chair, or
Three or two came together, and they all looked at the "Shui Tiao Ge Tou" written by Xiao Suzhen. Afterwards, they drank and went about their business. It was very lively, and the deserted atmosphere of the past disappeared.
Everyone in Lan Yuexuan was smiling happily. Lao Song never closed his mouth, but he was more ashamed and admired. When he was in his own hands, this restaurant was already in ruins, but he never expected that it would be ruined in Xue Poye's hands.
There was a chance of survival, and in just a few days, Lan Yuexuan was brought back to life.
There is still a gap between people!——
If it looks good, collect it, there will be more exciting things later!dd
