Chapter 234 Opening



Chen Li just supported her chin and looked at her without interrupting. The current Bai Yao was completely different from before, and her eyes and eyebrows exuded vitality.

Bai Yao talked for a long time before she stopped, picked up the tea in front of her and drank it all in one gulp. Without waiting for Chen Li to say anything, she got up in a hurry and went downstairs.

After a while, several carriages were attracted to the store door. The passengers who got out were all young men. Their clothes and temperament were extraordinary. Naturally, they also asked for private rooms.

By lunchtime, there were not many people in the store, and everyone was mentally prepared.

After all, if a young man comes in now, the minimum consumption is five taels, so if a few more come, the store won’t have to worry about business.

After lunch, many more people came in, and most of the twenty or so private rooms were occupied at once.

Everyone in the store was busy the whole time, especially the fragrance from the backyard, which never stopped throughout the day.

The shop didn't close until it got dark, and everyone gathered in the lobby on the first floor, waiting for Bai Yao to settle the bill.

Listening to the crackling sound of the abacus, everyone was very happy. They were not tired or cold after a day's work. Where could they find such a good job?

Bai Yao counted twice before pausing, "Boss, our total income today is 356 taels."

"Yeah, it's okay."

Compared to Chen Li's attitude, the servants and Shen Changshan beside her were extremely excited.

"Okay, those who need to rest should rest, and those who need to clean should clean up."

Chen Li went back with her family in a carriage. The food had been prepared there. She originally wanted to ask Bai Yao to go back with them, but she said she wanted to stay in the hotel, so Chen Li ignored her.

I took my father and third brother back home. My eldest sister-in-law was still in confinement after giving birth, so my mother and eldest brother stayed at home to take care of her.

Chen Li may not return to Daohua Village for a while. As for Dad and Third Brother, they can go back to their jobs after the store is back on track in a few days.

Now that the New Year is drawing to a close, some families have gone back to buy charcoal, so we can sell a batch before the New Year.

After finishing dinner and returning to the room, a warm breeze blew towards me, and two maids were standing outside the door.

"Miss, would you like to prepare some hot water for your bath?"

"Well, get ready."

"yes."

Soon, two maids came into the room carrying hot water. It took them several trips to fill the bathtub.

Chen Li sat in the bathtub, still thinking about the things in the store. She didn't get up and put on her clothes until the water temperature turned cold.

Before going to bed at night, I entered the space as usual. Now, the two superpowers are on the verge of breakthrough. The more time passes, the more patience is needed.

The next morning at 9:00 a.m., the family went to the store on time. The store was still a little deserted at that moment, but business was good towards noon and in the afternoon.

In the afternoon, a familiar carriage stopped in front of him again. It was the little girl from yesterday. Today, there were three other girls with her.

They have excellent looks, gorgeous clothes, and different temperaments. Following them are several maids and servants. It is obvious that they are ladies from wealthy families.

Bai Yao hurried to greet him. She remembered this customer very clearly.

"Miss, do you still want the fragrance in your private room today?"

"Anything else?"

"Yes, Lanzhuju's box is still empty right now, and there are other boxes besides."

"Then let's have bamboo today."

"Okay, this way please."

A group of girls stayed here for half an hour and then left. When they left, they packed up a lot of cakes and milk tea. They spent more than forty taels of silver in this private room today. Bai Yao never stopped smiling.

When counting the accounts in the evening, it was found that today's business was better than yesterday. The total revenue for today was 483 taels of silver. This was with a 20% discount. After deducting labor and costs, the profit was considerable.

When Banrixian was in trial operation, the business was good. The night before the opening, Chen Li made several flower baskets in the space and planned to put them outside Banrixian the next day to attract the attention of passers-by.

At the beginning of the Si hour, the firecrackers outside Banrixian started to crackle, mixed with the flower baskets at the door, attracting the attention of many passers-by.

In addition, there were restaurants, teahouses, gold and silver shops and other places nearby, so a lot of people flocked into the store in a short time.

Even Shen Changshan and Shen Yuanzhou went down to greet the guests wearing their store uniforms, and later Shen Li also went down to help. They stopped at noon. In the afternoon, the young ladies and masters came in an endless stream, and the private rooms upstairs were packed.

It was not until night fell that the people in the store stopped to rest, and their eyes were all focused on Bai Yao.

Bai Yao sat there using an abacus. She had been standing for too long today and her feet were hurting, so she had to sit down.

"Today's income is 1,122 taels!"

Her slightly excited voice also aroused everyone's emotions.

Chen Li was also very happy. "Business is good today, everyone has worked hard, so I'll give you one month's salary as a reward."

"Thank you, Boss!"

Chen Li left two hundred taels of silver in the store for circulation and took the rest away.

After having dinner with the people in the store, Chen Li returned to her temporary residence. To make cakes, fruits are indispensable. It seems that she needs to plant more fruit trees on the farm.

It can be made into canned fruit, which can be used as a substitute when there is less fruit.

Things were slowly getting back on track after half a day of leisure, and soon it was the 15th. Shen Qi'an and the others should have come out of Lushan Academy.

Chen Li came to the dental clinic and said, "Uncle Wu, I have something I want to ask you for help."

When Wu Song saw her coming, a smile appeared on his face. "A-Li is here. Let's talk inside."

After sitting down, she got straight to the point, "Uncle Wu, I want to find some people with good boxing skills."

The business in the store is good, so it is inevitable that some people will have bad intentions. However, they will not stay in the store all the time, so someone must be there to keep things under control.

"These people are usually hard to find. Uncle Wu can ask around for you."

These people have skills and rarely sell themselves into slavery.

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Wu. By the way, please ask Aunt Wu to help me pick out two maids, and I'll take them back to the store to wash the dishes."

"Okay, you sit down first, I'll bring it over to you later."

"good."

When Chen Li left, she took away two burly maids and put them in charge of washing dishes during the half-day break.

She couldn't bear to let the maids in the store wash dishes. After all, a pair of well-maintained hands is also a trademark.

Those young men and women would not like to see a pair of rough hands serving them food.

It was not until the eighteenth day that the three of them took a carriage back to Daohua Village. Lin Cuicui saw that it took them so long to come back. She would be lying if she said she was not worried, but her eldest daughter-in-law was still in confinement and she could not ignore her.
