[Chapter 174 Chapter 174 Becoming a Popular Person after Divorce (51)]
The design of Ruyi Restaurant was finalized by Sanniang and Liangchen. The style is roughly the same as other restaurants, except that there is an extra stage in the center of the lobby.
On the second day of opening, there was still a lot of customer flow.
Most of them were people who had received free tea coupons from cloth shops.
The fabrics in Yanqing's store are at least 20% cheaper than the market price, so naturally there is no shortage of customers.
For every piece of cloth purchased, a pot of fine tea from Ruyi Restaurant will be given as a gift.
What is tapped is the mentality of taking advantage of small gains and following the herd that most people have.
So it doesn’t matter whether the tea is good or not, as long as it can attract customers.
Sanniang has a good skill in making pastries, so attracting people is not a problem for her.
Several cooks in the restaurant have won unanimous recognition from two foodies, Meijing and Lianqiao.
Among the guests, there were some sour scholars in long gowns who came with a critical attitude, but at this moment they were staring at the willow girl playing the music on the stage.
"Look, Prime Minister Han has brought people here again." Sanniang joked with a smile, "Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is not the real purpose of this."
Yan Qing looked at Han Sheng who was sitting by the window in the hall.
The man was dressed in a blue robe, with his long hair tied up with a jade hairpin, and he looked as dignified and noble as he had been when they first met.
Noticing her gaze, Han Sheng picked up the tea and smiled at her warmly.
Like a spring breeze blowing across the mountains, the cold snow lotus becomes gentle again.
Yan Qing curled his lips. Even though they had divorced, they still had an unspeakable tacit understanding.
Han Sheng's occasional glances were as polite as he was, and never disturbing.
Turning his gaze to the beautiful woman on the stage, Yan Qing leaned against the railing in front of him and said, "Sanniang, who always says that money should be spent on the most important things, how can you be willing to spend money on the most important things to hire someone to play the piano and sing?"
Sanniang hummed along to the music: "We are trying to be elegant. Our Ruyi Restaurant must be unique."
Yan Qing poked her waist and said, "Third sister is clearly a kind-hearted person."
Sanniang pretended to tickle her: "There is no Bodhisattva who owes a lot of debts to others."
Yang Liu finished playing a song and walked up the stairs slowly. She knelt down when she saw the two people.
Yan Qing and Sanniang held her hands on either side.
"On behalf of all the sisters, Yang Liu would like to thank the two young ladies for saving our lives." She had tears in her eyes and her face was full of gratitude.
She and a few of her sisters were prostitutes in a brothel. They sold their art but not their bodies, and were not famous in the brothel.
With the example of the courtesans before them, these low-ranking prostitutes were not welcomed by the guests.
If they cannot bring benefits to the building, they will be forced to sell their bodies.
It was the two bosses of Ruyi Restaurant who signed a contract with the brothel owner, inviting them to take turns to perform at the restaurant every day, which changed their fate of being forced to receive customers.
Sanniang gave her today's performance fee and said, "It's a mutually beneficial thing, why bother thanking me."
Someone was asked to send Yang Liu back, and she bumped into Yan Qing's arm.
His mouth was almost stretched to his ears. "Oh, this is the first time someone treats me like a hero. My old face is getting a little red."
"Not only did she help them, but she also brought more customers to the restaurant." Yan Qing blinked sincerely, "Why isn't Third Sister considered a hero~"
In ancient times, the place where news spread the fastest was brothels.
Yang Liu and others have received favors from the restaurant, so they will naturally spare no effort to help promote it.
And as Sanniang said at the beginning, Ruyi Restaurant is unique because of this feature, so more curious customers will come here.
Mo Sanniang touched her hot face and said, "This is all thanks to Xiao Lianqiao's inspiration."
Lian Qiao's clinic opened earlier, but because the girl was a girl and not very old, he didn't see any customers.
Until a few days ago, a pimp in a brothel came to ask Lian Qiao to treat a sick girl.
At that time, she even stopped the little girl and asked, "Aren't you afraid of tarnishing your reputation?"
The girl puffed up her cute face and taught her seriously: "Sanniang, grandma said that patients are not divided into high and low status."
She was worried about the little girl going alone, so she followed her.
He happened to meet the madam forcing Yang Liu to entertain customers, and after some questioning he learned about her situation and that of some low-ranking prostitutes.
Then I came up with the idea of inviting them to perform in the restaurant.
She took out the small abacus tucked into her waist and calculated the approximate revenue for the day.
Yan Qing hung on her: "From now on, I will have to rely on my third sister to support me."
"You keep making fun of me." Sanniang rolled her eyes. "As the owner of several stores, why do I need others to support me?"
Lian Qiao, who had heard the conversation clearly, pulled Mei Jing over and said, "We also want Sanniang to take care of us, so can we eat pork elbow today?"
Meijing swallowed her saliva and said, "I want braised ones~"
Liangchen, who was following the two of them, looked around, pulled her hand and whispered, "Pay attention to your appearance, don't embarrass the young lady in public."
Yan Qing noticed her movements, and seeing that Meijing became much more reserved after her reminder, he sighed lightly.
"You, don't be so reserved. You act like an old woman at such a young age." She pinched Liangchen's face.
Liangchen relaxed his body and blushed: "Miss is teasing me again."
Several people went into the box and had a meal around the table.
Yan Qing left Lian Qiao alone and asked impatiently, "How is the task that sister gave to little Lian Qiao going?"
The little girl said anxiously, "There are still three herbs that are not clear yet. I plan to ask Master to research them further."
After Doctor Hu returned from Pingnan, he submitted his resignation to the Imperial Medical Bureau on the grounds that he had been infected with an epidemic and was in poor health.
He bought a small house next to the yard where Yan Qing and his friends lived.
I also have to check their homework from time to time.
As a result, Yan Qing's acupuncture skills improved rapidly.
"Remember to keep this matter secret." Yan Qing made a gesture to keep quiet.
Lian Qiao nodded obediently and pinched her lips.
The fertility pill given by the system is a bit mysterious after all. Regardless of whether it can be developed in the end, the fewer people who know about it, the better.
Yan Qing had received feedback about the medicinal residue that he had dumped in the pigpen at Biezhuang several months ago.
All the sows in the pen became pregnant at the same time, and now it is almost time for them to give birth.
The village head was quite surprised when he reported this matter and thought it was a good omen.
But after hearing this, she couldn't help but reveal a look of regret.
I thought the fertility pill was so effective that it could overcome gender barriers and make boars pregnant.
If that were really possible, she would have to do something to the dog emperor.
Yan Qing's several stores brought considerable impact to the capital's cloth market, and the cloth and silk in the stores were almost in short supply.
This resulted in Xie's cloth shop having a backlog of goods, and they were forced to engage in a price war with her.
She was as steady as a rock, calmly watching the other party jump up and down in anger, but she did not dare to play any tricks because she did not know what role the emperor played in the matter.
I am thinking of expanding to a few more stores once the factory gets bigger.
Soon it was the fifth day of May, the traditional day of prayer in Dayan.
Fulin Temple publicly raised funds to repair the temple, and many people responded.
A group of ladies and young ladies from official and noble families went to pray for blessings, and Yan Qing was naturally among them.
Unexpectedly, she received a special gift in the temple.
