Chapter 492 Is Luo'er unlucky? Let's open a women's restaurant!
"That's really strange. This woman can even do business?"
"Why not? Didn't you see that she seems to be the one in charge? Her father is always following her around. And with just a few words, she can make all these managers and shopkeepers bow down to her."
"Hey, is that really true? When did our Great Chu actually have a woman in charge?"
"I heard that they only have one daughter, so they found a son-in-law who would move in with them. However, the daughter still manages the business on a daily basis."
"Even so, it's still too indecent. We should avoid their restaurant in the future."
"Yeah, what bad luck! Let's go, let's go, let's go."
Before long, several tables of customers left the restaurant.
Those who hadn't left were mostly still watching the spectacle.
The shopkeeper was extremely worried.
"Young Master, when you go out in the future, could you please wear a hood that covers your whole body?"
"Look at you, walking around outside so casually. It's making our customers feel uncomfortable. What if they stop coming to our restaurant?"
Although Nangong Di was also standing to the side, Li Qingluo had the young master's token hanging from his waist.
Some shopkeepers never even saw this token in their entire lives.
Every manager of Tianfeng Trading Company knows this thing.
Therefore, upon seeing the token, they immediately recognized it as their master.
However, the young master's demeanor and appearance, being new to the place, startled the shopkeeper.
Li Qingluo looked around.
Although she had long noticed that the customs of the Great Chu were completely different from those of the Great Liang, this was still too exaggerated.
When women from the Great Chu went out, not one dared to fully expose their face.
Even when dining in restaurants, they would cover their entire bodies.
It was as if they were afraid of being looked at by others.
Li Qinglu frowned deeply.
"What, are all the women here ashamed to be seen in public?"
"Is it bad luck to walk outside without wearing a veil?"
Granny Zheng stepped forward and shouted, "How dare you!"
"This is the young master's own shop. Coming here is like returning home. How the young master conducts himself is none of your business."
"So what if these shallow customers never come to the restaurant again?"
"The young master also has his own way of dealing with it."
"It's none of your business to point fingers and criticize your own employer like everyone else. What's the difference between you and those people?"
Li Qingluo gave Zheng Mama an approving look.
Although she is a bit eccentric in normal times, she is always very steady when it matters.
No wonder she was given to her by her grandmother.
Li Qingluo looked at the trembling shopkeeper: "She is not wrong."
"You're starting to dislike me too?"
The shopkeeper immediately knelt on the ground with a thud.
"Young Master, I dare not, I really dare not."
Whether they dare or not is revealed in their words and actions.
What's the point of saying all this?
However, since she was new to the area, it was not appropriate for her to immediately send the person away.
So, she took a safer approach.
"Although I don't like the atmosphere in Nan'an, I will follow the local customs."
"If there's anything else we need to be careful about in the future, you can just go to the manor and let us know in advance. To confront me like this in the main hall of a restaurant, are you trying to intimidate me?"
The shopkeeper, surnamed Qian, trembled violently with nervousness after hearing Li Qingluo's warning.
He was almost in tears.
Everyone who works at Tianfeng Trading Company has been personally inspected by the old lady!
Moreover, nowadays, who doesn't know that the young master is the lifeblood of the big master?
Those of them who were in charge of the shop and the management used to be able to see the old lady every two or three years.
So they knew that Madam Pei was the real owner.
Even though Mr. Nangong has arrived, they are smart enough to know not to ask too many questions when things happen. They just treat the old lady's son as a good-for-nothing, so they directly train the young master.
But it was precisely because the head of the household was an old lady that they, as subordinates, knew that the idea of women being looked down upon was absolutely forbidden in their Tianfeng Trading Company!
It was obvious that his inappropriate behavior had angered the young master.
Manager Qian didn't bother to explain and immediately apologized: "Young Master, how could I dare to have such an absurd idea?"
"I truly know I was wrong. I beg the young master to give me another chance."
This person is quite adaptable.
Li Qingluo couldn't help but glance at him again.
Then they went upstairs and wandered around.
The more he looked, the more his brows furrowed.
These women of the Great Chu are living such unhappy lives.
Even the girls eating in the side rooms wore hoods the whole time to prevent the waiter from coming in.
When the male customers passing by saw Li Qingluo, a young woman, exposing her entire face naked, even though she was incredibly beautiful, they all looked at her with disdain.
Li Qinglu gave a cold snort.
Suddenly, he understood that even if Zongzheng Yu'er was causing trouble for the Lotus Sect, which advocated gender equality, she only did so in Daliang.
In this Great Chu, before even a few followers can be recruited, the men of this Great Chu will be the first to break their wings.
"If my appearance today really means that no customers will ever come to this restaurant again, that would be fine."
Manager Qian and his managers: ?
This is going to cost me my job!
Li Qingluo gently curled the corners of her lips: "Because I have a better idea."
Granny Zheng and Manager Qian both looked over curiously.
Nangong Di couldn't help but ask, "Luo'er, what's your idea?"
Li Qingluo: "A restaurant that caters exclusively to women for dining and drinking."
"Men are not allowed to enter."
"Here, we can talk about romance, music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and songs."
"We can also chat about everyday family matters, the joys of life, and the frustrations of living."
"Even the shopkeeper and servants have been replaced by women."
"There is only one rule here. They must take off their hoods before entering, and be their true selves."
What do you think?
Both Granny Zheng and Que'er's eyes lit up at the same time.
"Great idea, girl!"
“That’s good. I’ve already inquired, and there aren’t any restaurants like this in Nan’an yet.”
Manager Qian kept wiping his forehead and exclaiming, "This..."
"Young Master, what about your subordinate..."
He looked at the young master with a pitiful and resentful expression. Did the young master ultimately despise him and abandon him?
Li Qingluo reassured him, "Don't worry, we'll find you another place, still the innkeeper."
Shopkeeper: Waaah, he just wants to manage the restaurant.
At that moment, he only regretted that he wasn't a woman.
It's truly hateful and extremely regrettable!
After a busy day, Li Qingluo had just returned home when she heard that Duan Rongshi had already returned.
She wanted to know what he had done that day, getting up so early.
So I quickly returned to Tangdi Residence, which had already been thoroughly cleaned.
However, before she even stepped into the courtyard, she saw a figure in blue and green practicing swordplay in the courtyard.
This man was very tall, with long hair styled in the manner of men from the Great Chu Dynasty.
But that face was one that Li Qingluo had never seen before.
Handsome and dashing, elegant and bright.
Moreover, if you ignore his face, his figure is exactly the one Li Qingluo knows best!
She remembered what Sparrow had said that morning.
After looking at his figure several times, surprise spread through my heart like ripples: "A-Shi?"
