Chapter 173 Four Rich Women Businessmen 26
As soon as the signboard in Wangyou Pavilion was hung out, it really attracted many guests. Even if no robbers were caught back now, it would not prevent everyone from talking about this matter.
In fact, many times, there is not much difference between different wines and dishes in different stores. The guests eat more in a mood, especially when they are excited, their taste has long been paralyzed by alcohol, so how can they tell whether it is salty or light?
Seeing that the business opposite was getting hot day by day, the shopkeeper who came to Xike was a little envious. When Xiangzhi came to the store, the shopkeeper mentioned the matter and asked Xiangzhi if Xikezhi wanted to still offer discounts?
Xiangzhi frowned and felt disgusted with conditioned reflexes.
Since Li Lingjing left the Xie family, Xiangzhi finally turned over and made a decision. She was very disgusted and acted according to Li Lingjing's wishes. It felt like she was still a personal maid who obeyed her own words.
"They want to save their business through discounts, which is like repairing the bribe. This group of robbers committed a major case and would be arrested in no time. Wangyou Pavilion will be restored to its original price in a few days after discounts. We don't need to learn from them."
Xiangzhi flipped through the account book, which was not much different from before, and she didn't lose money, but she didn't make much money.
"Didn't you ask you to find a few girls who can sing small songs before? Why didn't you see the number of customers?" Xiangzhi asked the shopkeeper.
"It's increased a little, but not much." The shopkeeper replied in embarrassment, "Later, the opposite side had a discount event, and many regular customers went to the opposite side to drink..."
Xiangzhi couldn't help but frown, "Now the robbers have not been arrested, and the discount for Wangyou Pavilion cannot start. Why are the guests being taken away?"
The shopkeeper said: "You don't know that Wangyou Pavilion not only set up a discount event, but also hung a map of Shengjing City in the lobby. The guests who went there were drinking while studying where the robbers might hide in front of the map. Sometimes they fought for several rounds and couldn't stop until the second half of the night."
Xiangzhi's face tightened even tighter and she murmured: "There is such a thing..."
Her eyes couldn't help but float to the first floor, with the tables next to each other, leaving only a narrow aisle in the middle, so that the shop's shop can serve wine and food.
This is just a place to drink and eat, unlike Li Lingjing who specially left space for performing for the singer and dancer. Yao Niang pays the most attention to style and atmosphere. Even if she didn't go in and take a look at it, Xiangzhi could guess that the layout in Wangyou Pavilion must be hundreds of times stronger than hers.
She also wanted to make good arrangements, but Xie Lu gave her only this capital... Just the salary of a chef and a small worker running errands is a big expense. Where can I have the remaining money to do the decoration of the restaurant?
Having said that... Where did Li Lingjing get the money? She clearly took all the money in the account. Did the Li family secretly supplement her? This shouldn't be true. Although the Li family loves her daughter, she is even more beloved son. It is impossible for him to take out so much money to Li Lingjing at once.
"One more thing..."
The shopkeeper interrupted Xiangzhi's thoughts.
"What's the matter?" Xiangzhi asked with a frown.
The shopkeeper said hesitantly: "I was having a meal at the second brother of Xie's store at noon. I happened to see the third master's colleague coming to have a meal, so I asked if we could also make a bargain for him. I said I can't make the decision when you come..."
After a pause, the shopkeeper curled his lips and said, "I was very unhappy when the second uncle of the Xie family left."
Xiangzhi's face looked ugly. These relatives of the Xie family were like blood-sucking leeches. They would pick them up when they saw the benefits and could not even be driven away!
In the past, Li Lingjing quarreled with Xie Lu over such things. Xie Lu valued face the most. After hearing it for a long time, he felt that Li Lingjing, a businesswoman, was too ignorant and took too much money, which hurt the relationship between relatives.
If she deals with it like Li Lingjing, she will definitely not be able to get it in front of Xie Lu, but she has to agree to it. This one is cheaper, that one is cheaper, so how can she do business?
"How much cheaper do we give our third master's colleagues?" Xiangzhi asked.
The shopkeeper gestured with his fingers and whispered: "The third master said in person that it is 20% cheaper."
Xiangzhi pursed her lips and said unhappily: "Once the gate is opened, everyone can get involved in the future and it will be cheap. How can our restaurant do business?"
"Isn't that..." the shopkeeper also sighed, "But the second uncle of the Xie family said that even his colleagues can be cheaper, but relatives who have been married to each other will charge the original price. Is it reasonable to say that it is not cheaper?"
Xiangzhi pressed her eyebrows with a headache, "That's all the same. The relatives of the Xie family and the third master's colleagues are all 20% cheaper."
The shopkeeper didn't say anything.
Xiangzhi put down the account book and said irritably: "But the price of vegetables and wine in the store should be mentioned. If you choose some of the better dishes and wine in the store, please raise the price slightly, and the other prices will not change."
The shopkeeper thought that this was also a solution, so he nodded and said yes.
A few days later, the robber was caught.
I caught one first, and not long after, all the remaining four were arrested and the activities of Wangyou Pavilion ended.
Then there was news that the frontier general was about to return to Beijing to report his duties. He heard that the team returning to Beijing brought back a large number of gold, silver and jewelry, as well as many foreign treasures for His Majesty the Emperor.
The map on the first floor of Wangyou Pavilion was immediately changed into a border style picture. The paintings were filled with alien styles, and carefully depicted the food, tools, jewelry and pendants of the people in the border.
The guests who came to Wangyou Pavilion naturally turned to the frontier, talking about how powerful the general was, how brave and good at fighting, and how... and the guests who came with the guest also began to talk about these things.
When Xiangzhi came to the restaurant again, she obviously felt that the atmosphere was not right. She found a long queue outside the gate of Wangyou Pavilion. Because Wangyou Pavilion only started business every day at the Youth hour, these guests actually lined up all the way to Xike. Some people who couldn't wait came in nearby Xike, but her eyes still glanced at Wangyou Pavilion across the street from time to time, as if a heart had already flown to the opposite side.
Xiangzhi went up to the second floor and called the shopkeeper to ask, "What's going on?"
The shopkeeper explained: "Today, Wangyou Pavilion has arranged a play, which is about the general saving the beauty. These people are waiting to see."
After a pause, the shopkeeper said again: "I heard that the boss also made a wine called Hero Wine. The guests who arrived tonight would get a bowl of Hero Wine for free."
Xiangzhi bit her lower lip, and her chest seemed to be holding her breath, and she couldn't feel relieved.
After a long time, she spoke, "Aren't they afraid of losing money?"
The shopkeeper raised his lips slightly, thinking that this aunt was really too unsightly compared to her former wife.
"Most of the customers who enter the store call their friends. How can a bowl of wine be enough for them to be happy? After drinking this wine, side dishes are indispensable. There are also girls holding it and coaxing it, and the rewards will cost a lot. How can they lose money?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard an uproar on the street, and someone shouted: "The door of Wangyou Pavilion is open!!!"
Everyone in the team rushed towards the other end. Several tables of guests were running out of the hotel and hurried to grab the seats, but they didn't even care about the wine and food on the table.
Xiangzhi gritted her teeth and pressed her anger and said to the shopkeeper: "Hurry up, think of a solution!"
