A sip of fine tea soothes the throat.
District Chief Guan couldn't help but ask, "Manager Chen, is this the traditional culture you were telling me about?"
Chen Zhe nodded.
“That’s right, District Chief Guan. Ever since the discovery of the ancient tomb complex in Lijing Park, Sister Hu has had an idea. It’s a real pity that traditional culture is buried underground and the world doesn’t know about the history of Donghai City. So Sister Hu considered whether we could create a cultural tourism project for Donghai City based on the ancient sites discovered in Lijing Park. As you know, we run a club business, so Sister Hu combined our ideas and decided to transform this place into an ancient entertainment and cultural club.”
The district chief nodded with a smile.
"This is great, very innovative, and it's certainly pleasing to the eye."
A leader standing nearby chimed in with another comment.
"But aren't there a few of us in the audience a bit too few?"
"Director Li is right. Since it's the opening day, we do indeed have a few too few people."
If we can really develop cultural tourism projects as Chen Zhe said, that would be a political achievement, and since it's an achievement, it needs to be seen by others.
That's what they care about.
Chen Zhe had, of course, taken that into consideration.
He called Wu Yuanyuan over.
Wu Yuanyuan's attire at this moment is also the same as in ancient times. She wasn't here just now; she went to change her clothes.
"Shopkeeper, what are your orders?"
Since it's a club simulating ancient times, the manager can't be called that.
"Yuanyuan, go and arrange for someone to come over."
"yes."
Wu Yuanyuan performed a polite bow and then withdrew.
Yang Yun, who was standing next to Chen Zhe, tugged at his sleeve and whispered, "Who is it? When did you arrange for someone to come?"
"Of course we've arranged for people. How can we open a business without arranging for people? The opening should definitely be a lively affair."
"Huh? If you arranged this, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"Didn't I tell you? I told you not to worry."
Yang Yun's lips twitched, feeling like she'd been tricked, and she snorted.
Wu Yuanyuan arrived at the door.
She saw that a large crowd had gathered at the entrance, all craning their necks to look inside.
She called over Zhang Kai, who was waiting there.
"Brother Zhang, have your men arrived yet?"
"Don't worry, Manager Wu, everything has been arranged. We're just waiting for your instructions."
"Where are Mr. Wang's people?"
"General Manager Wang" refers to Wang De. Chen Zhe explained many things to Wu Yuanyuan.
"Don't worry, Mr. Wang's old taxi driver friends and the people from Zhe Shang Zhe Supermarket are on their way here, as are Sister Lin's media friends."
"Okay, then I'll leave this to you."
At this moment, Wu Yuanyuan had someone bring out a sign that read "Linglong Club's Opening Special Offer Today".
[Tea tasting package 99. Traditional craft beer tasting package 128.]
These striking characters startled all the onlookers. Looking at the magnificent entrance of the Linglong Club, which resembled a palace, they couldn't help but ask a question.
"Miss, is it really only 99 here???"
Wu Yuanyuan smiled sweetly.
"This is certainly not a lie. We have prepared excellent tea inside. If you would like to drink alcohol, we also have a 128 yuan set meal. These are all fine wines brewed using traditional brewing techniques and are also specialties of our Donghai City."
The man swallowed hard.
For just over 100 yuan, you can experience the grandeur of this club, which is like a palace.
That's totally worth it.
Many people share his thoughts, so they all came to ask him.
They were in a hurry to buy tickets to get in.
Everyone at the service counter by the entrance is scanning QR codes.
Wu Yuanyuan smiled and said, "No rush, everyone wait a moment, I haven't finished yet."
"Beautiful lady, you're not going to change your mind, are you? Are you trying to fool us?"
"Yeah, they say we can come in but then they won't. What's going on?"
"Yeah, we've already bought tickets. You're not planning to raise the price again, are you?"
"I knew there was no such thing as a free lunch..."
Wu Yuanyuan chuckled and reassured everyone, "Everyone, please don't misunderstand. There's a rule for entering our club: everyone has to change into traditional clothing, like the one I'm wearing. Is that acceptable to you all?"
"Want to change clothes? Will there be an extra charge?"
Wu Yuanyuan shook her head.
"No need, we provide all the clothes."
"Then I'll change!"
"I want one too!!"
No one is averse to changing clothes; many people dream of wearing traditional clothing, after all, we all grew up watching period dramas, and the costumes of the ancients in those dramas were something we all longed for.
However, due to the current social dress code, many people feel a little ashamed to wear it alone. Now that everyone has changed into this kind of clothing, it feels natural. Once the clothes are on, the hat is on, and the black boots are on, everyone gets excited.
Everyone felt like an ancient knight-errant, a free-spirited young master, or a lady from a noble family. These clubs were originally frequented by men, but with the addition of these ancient costumes, the number of girls actually far exceeded that of the boys.
After changing, I couldn't resist taking pictures.
Seeing them blocking the entrance and taking pictures, passersby also gathered around.
After asking around, everyone wanted to try it out.
Playing cosplay alone isn't very interesting; it doesn't offer much of an experience. But it's much more fun when dozens or hundreds of people play together.
The entrance became lively.
The district chief and his colleagues couldn't help but look back.
When they saw a customer dressed in ancient costume walk in, they were also eager to try it themselves.
The district chief asked, "Manager Chen, oh no, Shopkeeper Chen, do you have any clothes for us to change into?"
Even the district chief himself didn't realize that he would change his title under such circumstances.
Chen Zhe smiled.
"Of course, I have prepared everything for you. Please follow me to the changing room on the second floor."
Excitement flashed across the faces of the district chief and his colleagues.
They all stood up without hesitation.
Ninth Master, who was standing next to Shen Xingang, glanced at him.
"Mr. Shen, should we go up too?"
Shen Xingang snorted; "What a boring trick. We're here to find Hu Ling."
Seeing that he hadn't moved, Ninth Master felt it wouldn't be right for him to leave.
The changing room is located on the second floor, in the "Tianzi" room.
There were already many sets of very high-quality ancient costumes displayed here. As soon as the district chief touched them, he knew that the fabric was extraordinary.
"This is good stuff!"
The district chief's eyes lit up, and he couldn't resist taking off his shirt.
Chen Zhe smiled and stopped him.
"District Chief Guan, how can you come here personally to change clothes?"
The district chief was taken aback.
Then Chen Zhe clapped his hands.
Several more maids, dressed in ancient-style strapless long dresses and dressed in flamboyant attire, entered the room.
Seeing these sexy beauties dressed so alluringly, the district chief and his colleagues swallowed hard.
"This... Manager Chen, we're not the kind of people who make mistakes... Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
That's what they said, but their eyes never left the girls.
“District Chief Guan, you are our distinguished guests, and of course we must receive you with the highest courtesy. This is the basic changing service in our Tianzi changing room. Ancient clothes can be quite troublesome to put on, and it is not easy for one person to manage them, so we will help you put them on. This is not considered a mistake.”
Chen Zhe's explanation convinced them, and everyone felt at ease letting the girls come over and help them unbutton their clothes.
Looking at these sexy beauties and receiving such thoughtful and gentle service, the district chief and his colleagues felt very pleased with themselves; this was the kind of treatment that the elite should enjoy.
Chen Zhe also changed his clothes with the help of a maid.
The clothes they were wearing were clearly made of much higher-quality fabric than those of the customers who came in below.
"District Chief Guan, let's go down and take another look. There are still performances to come."
The district chief and the others nodded.
Then I followed Chen Zhe downstairs.
By this time, a large number of people had gathered downstairs. The once empty hall was now packed with people.
Upon seeing this scene, the district chief was overjoyed.
"Manager Chen, what did you say about how to develop the cultural tourism project? Are we going to do some promotion later?"
Chen Zhe understood that District Chief Guan wanted to go on stage and say something; he naturally understood his intentions.
"District Chief Guan, speaking of which, I still have one thing I need your help with."
"you say."
"The reason why our Linglong Club is developing this project is because an ancient tomb complex was discovered in Lijing Park. The development project of Lijing Park was led by you, District Chief Guan. So I would like to ask you to come up on stage and say a few words to us about the history and culture of Donghai, and also to give us some guidance on our work."
The district chief was overjoyed.
However, I still had to pretend to decline.
He loosened his belt and coughed lightly. "This isn't quite right. This is your home turf. We're just here for a visit."
"District Chief Guan, in the North District, you will always be our spiritual guide. This is naturally your home turf as well. It concerns a tourism development project in our North District. We hope you will not refuse any longer."
"Ahem, since you've put it that way, then I'll respectfully comply."
"Thank you, District Chief Guan."
...
After the performance on stage ended, the dancers all left.
The audience members below the stage were still enjoying themselves.
They all shouted for one more.
At this point, Chen Zhe was the first to go on stage.
To avoid looking too conspicuous, he didn't use a microphone, but instead had a microphone clipped to his collar.
"Hello everyone, I am Manager Chen from Linglong Club. You can also call me Manager Chen here today. As you can see, Linglong Club has undergone a major renovation and has changed a lot compared to before. Are you all used to wearing ancient costumes?"
Everyone enjoyed the experience and readily agreed. Among them were many of Chen Zhe's accomplices, namely the taxi drivers and the employees of Zhe Shangzhe.
They all came today.
"Manager Chen, we are so happy! To receive such excellent service and see such a wonderful show for such a small amount of money is absolutely worth it!"
"Yes! It's totally worth it."
Chen Zhe used his eloquence to have an interesting interaction with many customers present.
Some of them were his shills, but others were people he didn't know.
He created a very lively atmosphere at the scene.
She was like a natural-born host, bringing the atmosphere to a climax.
Only then did they slowly invite District Chief Guan out.
It was the first time that District Chief Guan had spoken in ancient costume in front of such a passionate crowd, and he was extremely excited.
Although he was talking nonsense, no one paid any attention to it.
On the contrary, I feel that experiencing this kind of activity with the leaders here is a very prestigious thing.
For example, they could write about their experience later.
[I once participated in a cosplay event with a certain district head.]
