Chapter 109 Chen Yunyun's Worries
After leaving the Chen family, the carriage headed south and passed by the place where they were interrogated by the officials when they came here before. Lin Xiaoyue knew that they were still investigating the whereabouts of King Jingnan, so she did not get off the carriage. She just asked Zhan Liang to stuff a few silver coins into the officials' hands and they would pass smoothly.
The ride was bumpy, and Chen Yunyun was leaning on Lin Xiaoyue's shoulder and was in a dream, so she didn't know what happened on the road. It was not until the carriage entered Yangming Town that Lin Xiaoyue decided to wake Chen Yunyun up.
"Yunyun, we're almost at the teahouse. Look, this is Yangming Town."
Chen Yunyun rubbed her sleepy head, leaned against the window and looked out. Fresh and cool air drifted in from outside the window, and she finally woke up a little. She saw that the streets on both sides were filled with all kinds of shops, selling ready-made clothes, jewelry, rouge and powder, and grain and oil... There were also small vendors on the streets selling novel gadgets, pork and fruit, noodles and snacks... The streets were bustling with people coming and going.
"Sister Lin, is this Yangming Town? It's much better than our Dongyuan Town! I wish our Dongyuan Town could be as prosperous as this one!"
Lin Xiaoyue couldn't help but sigh when she thought of Dongyuan Town. A good town was made miserable by those robbers and bandits. Now the robbers and bandits are gone, but Dongyuan Town is like a person who has just recovered from a serious illness. It will take a long time to recover.
The main reason is that the geographical location of Dongyuan Town is too ordinary. It is too far to the north and very cold in winter. There is no sea nearby, so there is no maritime economy. There are no lakes, so it is impossible to exchange products with other inland areas. There are no particularly eye-catching specialties. The only mountain has become a bald mountain. It is not certain whether trees will grow there in the future!
Therefore, whether Dongyuan Town can get better in the future depends on whether God gives it a chance!
In the short term, I can’t think of any way I can help Dongyuan Town. I hope I can have a chance to help Dongyuan Town in the future. After all, it is Yunyun’s hometown, and her godfather and godmother live there!
Lin Xiaoyue sighed, patted Chen Yunyun on the shoulder, and comforted her, "Take your time! Dongyuan Town will be fine!"
"Dee dee dee..." The carriage finally stopped at the small door of the teahouse. The reason why they always entered and exited from here was because this location was relatively hidden. Lin Xiaoyue and Liang Jingyao didn't want to be seen by the neighbors' shops when they entered and exited. As the saying goes, you should not have the intention to harm others, but you must always be on guard against others!
Lin Xiaoyue jumped off the carriage first, and then helped Chen Yunyun get off the carriage, "Yunyun, this is our teahouse, you will live here with me from now on."
Chen Yunyun followed Lin Xiaoyue into the backyard of the teahouse. Looking at the spacious courtyard, she couldn't help but sigh, "It's so big here! Much bigger than our home!"
Lin Xiaoyue actually had the idea of renovating her godfather and godmother's house, but when she bought some things back home, the two elders were afraid that she would spend money, so she gave up the idea of rebuilding the house.
However, now that Yunyun has come out with me, I have the opportunity to give her more money, and the renovation of the old house is just around the corner!
"Our home will be bigger and better than this one in the future. Let's work hard together!"
Chen Yunyun was a little unsure. How much money could he make? Could storytelling really make money?
"Sister Lin, can we really do this?"
Lin Xiaoyue nodded affirmatively and said, "Of course, you believe me!"
At the Yuanheng Inn opposite, Liang Jingyao, who was busy inside, heard that Lin Xiaoyue had returned. He put down the drawings in his hand and ran happily to the teahouse.
"Yue'er, are you back?"
Chen Yunyun knew it was something special when she heard the name. She poked Lin Xiaoyue's elbow with a smile and whispered, "Sister Lin, is this the big brother you're partnering with? He seems to like you very much!"
Lin Xiaoyue's face suddenly turned red all the way to her neck. She introduced herself sheepishly, "Brother Liang, this is my godsister Chen Yunyun. Yunyun, quickly call me Brother Liang!"
Chen Yunyun greeted Liang Jingyao with a smile and said, "Hello, Brother Liang! You can call me Yunyun from now on."
"Okay!" Liang Jingyao nodded and said to Lin Xiaoyue, "By the way, Yue'er, I've closed the Yuanheng Inn and started renovating the restaurant. Do you want to go over and take a look?"
Lin Xiaoyue attaches great importance to the new restaurant, which incorporates her modern ideas. Whether it can develop its own characteristics depends on this!
"Really? So soon! Yunyun, come with me and take a look!"
As she spoke, Lin Xiaoyue pulled Chen Yunyun towards the Yuanheng Inn. "Yunyun, do you think this inn is big enough? We're going to turn it into a restaurant, and I'll be the owner from now on!"
Chen Yunyun stood outside and took a look. She had thought the teahouse was big enough, but she didn't expect this inn to be even bigger! It was even more luxurious and grand than the inns in Dongyuan Town! Could it be that because it was close to the capital, it had so many advantages?
"Sister Lin, isn't it okay to keep this place as an inn? Why change it into a restaurant?"
Lin Xiaoyue brought Chen Yunyun into the inn and introduced her, "Yunyun, this is Brother Liang's restaurant manager in the capital—Manager Wang! Manager Wang, this is my godsister, Chen Yunyun."
Wang Fugui greeted Chen Yunyun with a smile, "Hello, Miss Yunyun. The restaurant has just started to be renovated, so it's a bit messy inside. Please be careful when you walk."
Chen Yunyun nodded and said, "Thank you, Shopkeeper Wang. I will pay attention to it."
Lin Xiaoyue glared at Wang Fugui as he walked away. She leaned over to Chen Yunyun's ear and said, "Do you understand now? Because Brother Liang originally ran a restaurant, and now he's planning to open a branch here. Besides, how can an inn make as much money as a restaurant? There's so much more you can do here!"
Chen Yunyun was very curious about all of this and asked like a curious baby, "What's it called? Sister Lin, tell me quickly."
Lin Xiaoyue was standing on the first floor. They were partitioning off into separate rooms, some large and some small. She pointed at the rooms and said, "Look, there are several separate rooms here. We're planning to attract merchants to come in and let sellers display their wares inside. We'll charge monthly rent for the booths. Locations near the stairs are better, as they have more space and will be more expensive. Smaller rooms further away are cheaper."
Chen Yunyun understood. It was just selling things for people, but there weren't many stalls or shops on the street. Would anyone really come here?
"Sister Lin, I think this is very risky. After all, there's nothing like it on the street. If you want to buy something, just go to the street and look for it. Who needs to come here to look? You're definitely going to lose money!"
Lin Xiaoyue had already heard several skeptical voices, but now that the arrow had been shot, there was no turning back. She could only grit her teeth and go ahead. If she didn't succeed, she would die! This plan would be successful in the modern era, even if it only involved a shift in time and space. She believed that as long as the restaurant was prosperous, it would definitely bring customers to the merchants exhibiting here!
