Li Shuheng pursed his lips, a hint of disappointment flashing in his eyes.
"Young man, you're here to apply for a job as an artist."
Yun Zhiyi was taken aback, but quickly recalled the relevant memories.
The story begins with the time when Wei Man Zhai was falsely accused and taken to court.
After that incident, Wei Man Zhai became very popular.
Lu Jingyi wanted to find someone to redraw the entire menu.
It just so happened that Li Shuheng was good at drawing, so we asked him to help draw a batch.
However, the daily menu at Wei Man Zhai may change.
Therefore, the menu design also needs to be changed daily.
Yun Zhiyi then asked Lu Jingyi to find another painter who was skilled in painting to work with regularly.
Li Shuheng boldly volunteered, saying that he could do it.
Yun Zhiyi declined, considering that he was about to take an exam.
However, to avoid discouraging the young man, he casually said, "We'll talk about it when you pass the imperial examination."
The words were just spoken casually.
She forgot about it afterwards.
I didn't expect this kid to still remember.
She found it somewhat amusing. "Aren't you going to take the state exam?"
The state examination was the test for becoming a successful candidate in the provincial examination.
If you pass the exam, you can go directly to the capital to participate in the palace examination next time.
Li Shuheng shook his head, "We still need to accumulate more experience."
She said, "I imagine your studies will become even more demanding in the future, so you should focus on them."
Li Shuheng pursed his lips, "The kid can handle it all; it won't interfere with his work."
Yun Zhiyi was puzzled. "I see that your family is not short of money these days, so why are you in such a hurry to work?"
Li Shuheng opened his mouth, wanting to explain, but he didn't know how, and he was afraid that she would misunderstand him as being eager for quick success.
His ears immediately turned bright red with anxiety.
Yun Zhiyi said helplessly, "Now that there are painters in the building, you should focus on your studies. It wasn't easy to get to this point, so don't neglect one thing for the other."
When Li Shuheng heard that an artist had already been hired, he couldn't hide his disappointment.
He opened his mouth, but in the end he could only bow respectfully and obediently leave.
Yun Zhiyi looked up and saw a deep sense of loneliness shrouding his thin back.
I really don't understand, do they want that job so badly?
However, she quickly put the matter aside.
Three days after the Mid-Autumn Festival, Yunjian Vegetable Shop reopened for business.
Little did they know how many people had their hair turn white from waiting for those three days.
After a few days of fermentation, Yunjian Vegetable Shop's reputation can now be said to have surpassed that of its predecessors.
It completely overshadowed the other three stores.
Firstly, the lively and unusual queuing scene before the Mid-Autumn Festival attracted a lot of attention.
Although Wei Man Zhai is famous, its audience is still limited. Most ordinary people know about this restaurant because of the courtroom farce that happened back then.
After that, I almost forgot about it.
It then mainly circulated within upper-class circles.
Moreover, because of the limited number of tables, it didn't spread very widely.
For example, some young people in the family don't understand at all.
The exaggerated queues at Yunjian Restaurant during the three days of the Mid-Autumn Festival became a hot topic of conversation, arousing the curiosity of many people.
Not to mention the controversy surrounding the high-priced auction of headcount to help buy groceries, which attracted even more attention.
Those who paid attention to the matter also indirectly learned about the situation of Yunjian Vegetable Shop.
Since the fruits and vegetables inside are affordable for ordinary people.
They couldn't help but want to see how amazing it was, making so many rich people spend money like crazy just to buy a little more vegetables.
Some of the new customers happened to buy a dish, and the whole family ate it and praised it highly.
Then the word spread from one to ten, from ten to a hundred, directly reaching both the upper and lower markets.
The third point is that there are more people who want to become middlemen.
Starting from the Mid-Autumn Festival, the vegetable shop was closed for two consecutive days.
Some of the people who had previously bought the vegetables tried to take them out and sell them at a higher price.
Surprisingly, someone actually bought it.
Many people saw the potential profits in this and, having tasted the sweetness of success, wanted to continue acting as middlemen.
If all else fails, we can try to sell a number of people.
This has led to queues forming outside vegetable shops again since yesterday.
When Yun Zhiyi arrived with her convoy this morning, the line was already quite far apart.
It was just as good as the days leading up to the Mid-Autumn Festival.
When they saw Yun Zhiyi's vegetable delivery team appear, the people in line perked up.
The regulars greeted them loudly.
Yun Zhiyi sent two shop assistants to stock up on goods.
Take out a new wooden board and hang it directly at the entrance of the shop.
The rules for buying vegetables are written on the wooden board.
The first rule remains unchanged: purchase restrictions.
Each person is limited to purchasing one item per item.
Each customer is limited to one item for special products, and you will be informed on the same day.
Currently, the only special product is watermelon.
The second rule is that resale is prohibited.
Effective immediately, anyone who resells goods purchased from the vegetable store will be disqualified from purchasing from the store again.
The third rule is the rules for queuing to buy vegetables.
Starting today, the store will only accept 1,000 grocery shopping orders per day.
They are classified into multiple categories and a single category.
Each type of vegetable will have its own separate numbering box.
If you buy multiple items at once, there will be a separate numbering container.
Divided into all categories, Category 1, Category 2, Category 3...
Choose the container that corresponds to the number of different types of vegetables you want to buy.
Each lot-drawing box contains 500 lots, but only 100 lots are numbered, and each person can only draw a number once.
Every day, people who come to buy vegetables have a chance to draw a number. The number drawn will be marked on their bamboo strip, and they can buy vegetables anytime they come the next day.
Those who don't win the lottery can still come tomorrow, but they can only participate in the lottery and cannot buy groceries.
New customers also need to draw lots before buying groceries.
This rule is extremely domineering and extremely off-putting to customers.
But once you know the value of the food in the restaurant, who would just walk away?
