"Mother, I want to open a restaurant."
San Shun said this to Wan Shu.
Wan Shu wasn't surprised when she heard this. Although they had never lacked money since they opened the soap factory, who would complain about having too much money?
Having an additional business line can also help mitigate risks as much as possible.
Besides, opening a restaurant has always been Sam-soon's dream.
From the very beginning of distributing braised food, San Shun had always wanted to open their own restaurant.
However, what San Shun said next surprised Wan Shu.
Restaurants need to be located, so Wan Shu naturally asked, "Have you chosen a shop in the county town yet?"
“I’ve already chosen one.” San Shun nodded. “But it’s not in the county town.”
Wan Shu: "Is it in the prefectural city?"
San Shun smiled and said, "It's not in the city, it's right here in our Qingshui Village."
He carefully explained his thoughts to Wan Shu.
"Ever since the incident involving King Wen, our Qingshui Village has become famous throughout the country. In addition, with the soap factory, many merchants often come here."
“Every time I meet these businessmen, they say that they think the scenery of Qingshui Village is very beautiful.”
How could it not be beautiful? Ever since Emperor Hongxing bestowed upon them fertile land, Wan Shu has planted many flower fields around here to facilitate the production of essential oils and soaps.
In addition, she also planted many fruits and vegetables that were not available in the Great Sheng Dynasty.
It can be said that the scenery is beautiful and the novelty is there. Whenever these merchants come, if they have enough time, they will spend half a day wandering around Qingshui Village.
“I was thinking, since they’re willing to spend time looking around, why don’t we just open a restaurant right here in Qingshui Village? These merchants are all wealthy and generous, so we certainly won’t lack business.”
"In addition to the restaurant, I also want to open an inn, so that if people want to stay overnight, that's fine too."
"I know that no restaurant has ever opened in a small village before, but I believe we can!"
What surprised Wan Shu was not San Shun's groundbreaking idea.
After all, this kind of thing is quite common in modern times; it's just agritourism.
What truly surprised her was Sam-soon's intelligence.
In modern times, when agritainment is everywhere, the idea of opening an agritainment business is not surprising. But in ancient times, when no one had ever tried it, it was a completely different story!
It seems Sam-soon is really suited for business! Since she's suited for it, she definitely deserves our full support!
Wan Shu immediately agreed: "Your idea is excellent! Your mother will help you open the restaurant!"
However, despite this, in order to train Sam-soon's abilities, she didn't actually interfere much in the construction of the restaurant.
However, she still offered her own opinions on the construction of the inn.
“I think… if we’re going to open an inn and our clientele is wealthy people, the toilets can’t just be simple dry toilets.”
"We can design a toilet that can flush automatically and maintain environmental hygiene."
That is, a flush toilet.
Speaking of which, Wan Shu has wanted to get her hands on one of these things ever since she transmigrated.
After all, the dry toilets of ancient times were truly unbearable...
Winter is alright, but in summer... not to mention the stench, you can see maggots wriggling around if you look down.
She almost fainted from fright the first few times she went to the toilet after she transmigrated.
Since then, she has wanted to get a flush toilet, but due to poverty and other commitments, she has not taken any action.
Now that I have money, I have some free time, and I also have the opportunity to open an inn.
If not now, when?
So, as soon as he finished speaking, Wan Shu went to the county town and brought in a few carpenters to study the matter.
The research process for flush toilets did not go very smoothly.
After all, this is a craft that has never existed in ancient times.
However, thanks to Wan Shu's persistent efforts and the system's assistance...
She finally succeeded in designing the flush toilet!
Once the design is completed.
Wan Shu then went to find Meng Wenyuan, and Manager Su also came to experience it.
When Meng Wenyuan and Manager Su first heard that Wan Shu wanted them to come and experience the latrine, they found it strange and even disgusting.
I thought to myself, "Toilets are smelly, what's so great about that?"
However, out of respect for Wan Shu, they agreed. And then... after experiencing it for no more than five minutes, their perception of toilets was completely changed!
Good heavens, how can there be such a clean outhouse in this world!
After you finish urinating, simply pull the switch next to you, and water will automatically come out.
And can you believe it? Wan Shu actually put precious essential oils and aromatherapy in the latrine.
Furthermore, soap was placed at the entrance of the latrine for handwashing.
This toilet, unlike other toilets, doesn't smell bad at all; in fact, it smells wonderful!
After leaving the restroom, both Meng Wenyuan and Manager Su were momentarily stunned.
"Sure enough, you see all sorts of things when you live long enough, even such a magical toilet..."
"Even the emperor and his concubines in the palace probably couldn't use such a nice latrine!"
Wan Shu asked with a smile, "So, do you think our guests will be satisfied with their stay at our inn?"
Without a second thought, Meng Wenyuan and Manager Su nodded immediately: "Of course! With such a fragrant outhouse, what could be unsatisfactory!"
"Yes, yes, the scenery is beautiful, the toilets smell wonderful, what more could you ask for! Even I want to move in right away! I'm sure your restaurants and inns will be fully booked!"
Who wouldn't want their business to thrive?
Wan Shu was overjoyed to hear this, but she did not become complacent because of it.
She knew very well that to run her family's agritainment business well, good scenery and toilets alone were not enough; the accommodation environment and the taste of the food were also very important factors.
San Shun here strictly controls the environment and comfort of the accommodation.
Wan Shu, who is quite accomplished in culinary arts, took charge of overseeing the dishes.
In the words of Meng Wenyuan and Manager Su, "You already have two treasures: braised dishes and crayfish. Even if you just make the other dishes casually, you won't lack customers."
But for Wan Shu, there is no such thing as "casual"!
She worked through the night to design the menu for the restaurant.
Iron pot stewed goose, pickled radish and old duck soup, chicken stew, Cantonese roast goose, char siu pork, and hot pot!
Other dishes are fine, chicken, duck, goose, pork and so on, everyone has eaten them more or less.
However, the word "hot pot" left everyone completely baffled.
Perhaps driven by curiosity or a sense of novelty, Wan Shu's family's agritainment business was packed with people on its first day of opening.
And on every single table, they all ordered a hot pot.
