As soon as Qingyao left the palace and returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, she immediately called the servants to bring hot water and washed herself again.
After putting on her nightgown, Qingyao lay lazily on the bed, supporting her cheeks with her fingers, her fingers shaped like orchids. She turned upwards and saw flower petals flying all over the room.
Xiaoyi couldn't help but be amazed when he saw this scene. This ancestor was really amazing. He carefully preserved the spiritual power of others, but used the spiritual power of the ancestor to change various scenes and create all kinds of beautiful scenes to make himself happy.
Seeing the petals dancing in the room, emitting bursts of floral fragrance, Xiaoyi ran over to Qingyao and asked, "Grandfather, what do you think? Does this Emperor suit your taste?"
Qingyao rolled her eyes at Xiaoyi when she heard this: "What do you mean by 'to my taste'? I can only say he's good."
Xiaoyi was stunned when she heard Qingyao's praise for the Emperor. As far as she knew, this old ancestor seldom praised others. The fact that she could praise him must have satisfied her with the Emperor's figure.
Then, Xiao Yi said in a flattering tone, "Then, Old Ancestor, what are your plans next?"
Qingyao looked at the petals flying in the room, feeling happy, and she also had the leisure to tell Xiaoyi about her plan.
Qing Yao said, "Don't be in a hurry. Take your time. The next step is to let those literary geniuses know about my existence. Didn't the Emperor say that he broke off the engagement in his previous life and said I was immoral? Since I'm immoral, then I'll show them that I'm virtuous. I remember I own a teahouse, right?"
Xiaoyi immediately went to check whether there was a teahouse under the original owner's name. Sure enough, there was a teahouse located in the center of the capital.
Then, Qingyao instructed Xiaoyi, "Get me a design from the system mall. I want to hold a poetry reading in the teahouse. Since I want to make a name for myself, this teahouse is the main thing. The design must be novel and high-end." Qingyao said.
"Yes, ancestor, I will arrange it right away." Xiao Yi responded and turned around to hurriedly do his work.
In the room, Qingyao looked at the moonlight outside the window, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she was already looking forward to the next plan.
When Qingyao woke up the next day, the petals in the room had disappeared automatically, and a design pattern appeared on the table.
Qingyao picked it up and took a look. She found that Xiaoyi was quite reliable. Although it was weak and timid, it was loyal to her.
Qingyao looked at the drawing above, picked up a pen and made a few changes, then called her personal maid and said she was going out.
The people in the mansion immediately prepared the carriage, and Qingyao soon arrived at her own teahouse.
The maid immediately lowered the curtain and helped Qingyao out of the carriage. At this time, the owner of the teahouse had already known that the boss would come today, so he was waiting here early.
The shopkeeper looked at Qingyao. She was wearing a pink gauze dress and a pink gauze scarf. Although his face could not be seen clearly, his temperament was extraordinary. He was definitely a peerless beauty.
The shopkeeper warmly invited Qingyao in, and then Qingyao was helped into the main and guest room upstairs by the maid.
The shopkeeper asked enthusiastically, "Boss, what brings you here? Is there anything you need today?"
Then Qingyao took out the stack of designs prepared by her aunt. Because in ancient times, her aunt had modified the paper and changed it to the ancient style, so when Qingyao took out the design, it did not arouse anyone's suspicion.
Qingyao handed the stack of design papers to the shopkeeper and said, "This is the plan for the teahouse's seclusion and reorganization for the next month."
The shopkeeper was stunned when he heard this. This teahouse is located in an area with a lot of traffic. It makes a lot of money every day. If it is closed for a month, it will lose a lot of money.
If we close the shop for a month, many of our regular customers will leave. The shopkeeper looked at Qingyao worriedly and asked, "Young Master, why do we need to renovate the teahouse when everything is fine? We will suffer huge losses if we close it for a month. Do you think there is any important reason why we need to renovate the teahouse?"
Upon hearing this, Qingyao looked at the shopkeeper with admiration, and then asked, "Shopkeeper, how old do you think this teahouse has been like this?"
The shopkeeper was taken aback and said, "Eight years."
Qingyao asked again, "Shopkeeper, people always like novelty. Our current customer base is simply because our tea is good, and we never try to fool our customers. But people will get tired of something after looking at it for a long time. What do you think of the design on this drawing?"
The shopkeeper then carefully examined the blueprints Qingyao handed him. The more he looked at them, the brighter his eyes became. He excitedly clapped his thigh and said, "Boss, this design is really great. It looks magnificent and mysterious. But if we decorate it like this, ordinary customers won't be able to afford it."
Qingyao asked again, "Shopkeeper, we have to think long-term. Although we've renovated it, we're not going for the highest end of the spectrum. How many floors does our teahouse have?"
The shopkeeper said, "There is a third floor."
Qingyao said, "Yes, it's the third floor. The first floor is designed as an ordinary hall, and ordinary guests will be charged the original price. The second floor is medium-sized, and the third floor is the private room, which is the highest-end. Also, the stairs and the door need to be rearranged. The door will open in two places. One is the VIP passage for the third floor, commonly known as the high-end passage. For this floor, you can enter through the main door alone."
The shopkeeper suddenly understood and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Boss, you've thought it through. I'm shortsighted. But this blueprint includes a lot of partitions, soft couches, and a lot of toys. The cost is not low. Can we make back our money?"
Qingyao smiled slightly and said, "Of course, as long as this place becomes a gathering place for scholars and writers, it will naturally make back its investment. And with a good reputation, why worry about not making money? Prepare according to this plan. In a month, I want to see a brand new teahouse."
The shopkeeper responded, "Yes, sir, I'll arrange it right away."
Afterwards, the shopkeeper hurried off with the blueprints to arrange matters, while Qingyao took a short rest in the host and guest room, thinking about the subsequent plans.
