Mr. Mi waved his hand, coughed slightly and said, "The invitation said that A-Yao and I were specially invited. If that's the case, let me go to the banquet with us this time."
He made the final decision, and no one dared to contradict the old man.
You may say that you are okay with it, but deep down in your heart you may have some unwillingness to do so.
When everyone walked out of the main hall, the fourth uncle was reminiscing with Mi Hanhai with a smile on his face, hoping to build a closer relationship with the third brother.
The uncle here had one hand behind his back, and the second master Mi next to him looked at Mi Xiayao and the others with a sinister look on his face.
Ever since Mr. Mi called Mr. Mi over last time, he and Mi Xia Yao in the shopping mall have indeed become much more relaxed.
But the more this happened, the more she knew that Mr. Mi might have some conspiracy waiting for her.
——
Princess Yongning's birthday banquet was a day celebrated by the entire capital.
There was a festive atmosphere for several days.
The team of escorts trained by the Gu family personally delivered the goods to the capital half a month earlier than expected.
And Yuelai Building also happens to be officially opened today.
The lively opening gongs and drums soon attracted many customers to come and hang out. Even some children from aristocratic families who like to join in the fun would come in to take a look.
The decoration of Yuelai Building can be said to be quite gorgeous. The golden decoration gives people a feeling that this shop is rich and confident.
Mi Xiayao and Gu Yun looked down from the second floor of Yuelai Building and saw the most beautiful cloth hanging in the most conspicuous place. Both of them smiled with satisfaction.
Seeing that the first floor was almost crowded, the two returned to the box.
She drank tea and sighed with half-squinted eyes: "As expected of the Gu family's cloth shop, the quality of this batch of fabrics is much better than that of other cloth shops.
"If I can be a little more keen on the styles of these clothes, I might be able to make new patterns on these cloths, and then the prices of these ready-made clothes can be adjusted up several times."
Gu Yun listened to Mi Xiayao's very business-savvy thinking. Just listening to it, she also felt that this matter could make the Gu family wealthy for a long time in the future.
"Will you sell these pieces of cloth in batches like those of weak quality? Although our cloth store says that the inventory of these top-quality cloths can last another half a year, the population of the capital is several times greater than that of Tangzhou..."
Gu Yun frowned. She had been worried about this these days. Now when she saw Mi Xiayao, she couldn't help but ask.
Mi Xiayao felt that the tea was tasteless, so she had some sake brought to her. She took a sip of the wine and her whole body felt warm.
"How can it be sold together with ordinary cloth? A treasure like this is naturally sold in limited quantities."
Naturally, she had other plans for these pieces of cloth.
While there was a commotion outside, Song Qiao suddenly ran into the side room and said nervously: "Master Zuo Tongzheng is here."
The two looked at each other quickly, and both saw a look of surprise in each other's eyes.
After they hurriedly got up and went downstairs, they saw Rong Yuanzhou dressed in official clothes and looking up and down Yuelai Tower.
The customers visiting the shops around Yuelai Building had different expressions.
Some are naturally timid and sneak out of the shop early.
When Mi Xiayao saw that most of her guests were missing, she was lying if she said she was not angry.
She restrained her irritable mood and greeted him with a smile, "Master Rong, do you have something to announce?"
"I heard that you were going to open a new store, and I was a little curious, so I came over to take a look. It's not a big deal."
His voice was calm, and the guests in the room breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this.
But soon there was new gossip for them to discuss.
"What is this gentleman's background? He actually came to this shop in person. Could he be the boss's fiancé?"
Someone whispered to their companions.
Gu Yun stood close, and she glanced at him.
The guest also knew that it was inappropriate for him to discuss gossip at the scene, so he lowered his head with a guilty conscience.
However, her companion did not have much insight and said directly: "You don't even know about this sir?! This is the best choice for a husband in the capital. He comes from a well-off family and is upright. How happy would any girl be if she married him?"
Here Mi Xia Yao smiled a little reluctantly.
If you want to join in the fun, if you are a person with high emotional intelligence, you have to change your official uniform and act low-key. It would be better for him...
"Then take a look. The fabrics in Yuelailou are purchased from specialized cloth shops. The first-hand fabrics have a very comfortable texture. Whether they are cut into linings or used as outerwear, they are all good choices. If you have time, adults
, you can also see more.”
Mi Xiayao would not waste such a perfect publicity opportunity by catching Rong Yuanzhou and trying to steal something from him.
Her words were equivalent to leaving Rong Yuanzhou, who had come to take a look, in an awkward place.
At this moment, all the guests were waiting to see Mr. Guan's next move.
Gu Yun crossed his arms across his chest and looked at Mi Xiayao amusedly. She saw this woman's little thoughts and shook her head with a helpless smile.
Rong Yuanzhou was almost forced to move away by Mi Xia Yao's words.
Mi Xiayao pointed at a piece of cloth, and Rong Yuanzhou nodded. Then she took off the entire piece of cloth and threw it to the shop boy with a bright smile.
In this mode, Mi Xiayao almost took Rong Yuanzhou for a complete tour.
Even the boy holding the cloth behind him was changed several times.
Finally, Mi Xiayao was excited and wanted to take Rong Yuanzhou up to the second floor.
But the other party quickly found other excuses.
"The government office may have something waiting for me, so I'll come back to visit you another day."
He looked back at the boy holding the cloth, and his eyes twitched fiercely for a moment.
Mi Xiayao looked at the other party with a smile, "Okay, if that's the case, then I won't keep you here.
"Pay the bill, sir?"
Her light words made Rong Yuanzhou's eyes twitch even more.
Gu Yun watched as the shopkeeper's hand pulling the abacus became more and more busy, and he even used two abacus to settle the bill.
This shows how impressive the income from today's good start is.
Mi Xiayao and Gu Yun personally saw off the enemy in official uniform after leaving Yuelai Tower.
She crossed her arms across her chest and said with a proud smile: "You came here wearing official uniform and want to press down on my shop?
"Then let me give you more money."
Gu Yun patted Mi Xiayao's shoulder. She was so impressed that she couldn't say anything at the moment.
"I collected a big bill today. Let's go. I'm going to treat you today. You can come out with your son and we can have a meal?"
Gu Yun didn't have any objections. She went to the inn to pick up her children first, while Mi Xiayao asked Song Qiao to go to the best restaurant to reserve a seat.
Just as she was about to turn around and enter the Yuelailou shop.
Suddenly, footsteps approached from behind, and a man's deep voice was heard.
"That man named Rong just came over and bought a lot of things from your shop?"
Mi Xiayao turned around and saw Pei Xingyuan looking at her with a stern face.
