Chapter 124

"Let me tell you, such a place, such a storefront, is rare in the whole of Shangdu. We have ten famous squares in Shangdu, and this Chuanyan Square is one of them. There is also the largest Yuhe Square, which is only a few steps away from here. After visiting a few squares, it doesn’t take a moment to ride a horse. The three of you, look at the location of this building, facing south, on the busiest market street in Chuanyanfang. People come and go, and the flow is endless. It is used to open a restaurant , that would be the best. As long as the buddy stretches out his hand at the door, eight or nine can be stopped." This donor named Xiao Ma can speak well.

The sales method for thousands of years has changed the soup but not the medicine.

Mo Zi naturally knew that this was Lao Wang selling melons and boasting. In fact, there was a lot of water in it, and one or two of ten sentences could be believed, so he didn't nod along with Cen Er's nodding.

When I first came in, I saw the location of the gate, and it was indeed a good location, in the middle of the street.However, there are few shops on both sides. It is said that it is a market, and there are many temporary roadside stalls. They sell vegetables, cloth, and groceries. They are all basic goods that solve people's livelihood.The houses in the entire Fang City are generally crowded and simple, and it can be seen that the people living here are not too rich.

But after all, it was Cen Er who found the donor, and it is said that he is already an outstanding "professional" in this field, and Mo Zi didn't say bad things when he came up.I thought to myself, at least read the inside and then talk.

After entering the door, there is a three-story red building 20 meters ahead. Between the door and the building is a gaudy-looking garden. Roses, cannas, and morning glory are planted randomly, and red gauze and green silk are tied to the trunk. It's confusing.I wonder what kind of festive atmosphere the owner wants to add?

When we approached the small building, we found that it was badly dilapidated.On the third and second floors, there are big holes in the tissue paper, allowing the happy spring breeze to blow in and out.Under the sun, the red building looks so old, it's all due to the gray and thick layer of dust.

The pony has sharp eyes, saw Mo Zi frown, and immediately said, "Although this building is old, I heard that you are going to rebuild it, so it's okay, right? Otherwise, if it's a new building, it can't be this building." price."

Mo Zi still just laughed and didn't speak.

Xiao Ma thought to himself that he thought Cen Er was the one in charge, but now it seems that the one who doesn't talk much may be the one who decides.

So, he made up his mind to win over Mo Zi more, and said, "The price can still be negotiated. Because the proprietor is in a hurry to go back to his hometown, it should be no problem to be lower than a hundred taels, and I will take care of it."

Cen Er had been here once before, and he was quite satisfied with this place. He told Mo Zi, "I didn't draw a picture of the yard in front of it and this building. The main thing is that there is a garden with a pond at the back. Shangdu is densely populated. The land is more expensive than other places, and the location is better, and the land is bigger, so it is really hard to find. The size of this land is less than that of Luozhou, but it is the biggest one I can find."

"Not bad. Just because the place is so big, several big merchants have approached the proprietor. If I hadn't made friends with the proprietor, I've made an agreement in advance, I'm afraid they won't wait for you to see it for the second time, and people will buy it. It's gone." Xiao Ma thought he was smart enough to answer the guest's words.

Mo Zi heard the contradiction.Xiao Ma first told her that he could lower the price, and lowering the price should be his real psychology in his eagerness to find a buyer.It is bragging to say later that there are several potential buyers of large merchants.Otherwise, the proprietor would have sold it long ago regardless of whether he had friendship or not.Who would have trouble with silver?

"What kind of shop was opened in this place, and what kind of business did it do for a living?" I had heard people say it all the time, and it was her turn to say it.The structure is a bit strange. There is a gate, but it is not a street shop. You have to walk through the garden to get into the building.Generally not so hospitality.

"..." Xiao Ma looked at Cen Er, the meaning in that look was——didn't you tell me?

Cen Er cleared his throat, his expression was very uncomfortable, awkward for a long time, as if he wanted to say something or not.

Mo Zi stared at Cen Er for a while, and his mind had turned twice, "It's hard to say? I guess, the place is big, and it's not a street shop. A garden with red flowers and plantain greens, both yarn and silk, can't be Business done at night? Less words, "flesh trading, selling jokes.

Cen Er's eyes were more white than black, and he grinned, "Brother Mo..."

"Brother Mo, you have really good eyesight." Xiao Ma tried to reverse the disadvantage, "This used to be the famous Xiliu Garden in Shanghai, and there have been several oirans. The mother who heads the family is now old and wants to return to her hometown to take care of herself. Only then are you willing to give up the land. Otherwise, how could there be such a good opportunity, right?"

When Mo Zi heard it, it was nothing more than a court in the past, but she was actually well-known in Shanghai and had been an oiran.She said that when she first came in, a row of peddlers stared at them.

There is no need to look at the downstairs, that building, and the garden behind. Mo Zi stopped in the front yard and asked the pony, "Apart from this land, is there anything else?".

"Brother Mo, go in and have a look. If you don't want to rebuild, you can open a big restaurant with a little renovation. There is also a garden behind, with a pool. After finishing it, it will be a unique scenery. Building a pavilion can attract people. That's great. The location, such a big place, and such a cheap price, there is no second place. It’s only 2000 taels of silver.” If a donor like Xiao Ma meets other buyers, he may be able to convince him, but if he meets It was Mo Zi who arrived, and what he said was in vain.

"If you don't have any other land, then we have to find other donors." Mo Zi didn't want to waste any more time, "Cen Er, let's go."

Cen Er has always admired Mo Zi, so although he thinks this place is okay, Mo Zi doesn't like it, so he has no choice but to follow her out.But after all, he still expressed his meaning.

"Brother Mo, I know you think this place used to be a brothel. I hesitated at first when I heard what Xiao Ma said, but then I thought, after buying this place, it will be completely rebuilt anyway. It doesn't matter what you used to run, right? The price That’s good. A shop that’s only one-tenth the size here is at the end of this street, and it costs 300 taels of silver.” Cen Er didn’t just listen to Xiao Ma’s talk, he also understood it.

"Cen Er, it's not about money." Mo Zi said as he walked, "It's nothing more than other livelihoods. As you said, the change of appearance has nothing to do with the previous business here. However, one of the characteristics of Wangqiu Tower is that Ge Qiuniang. Ge Qiuniang is a talented performer. We all know that it is a serious job, but those who are not familiar with it may not know it. Singing and dancing in a restaurant and pouring wine for guests, it is easy for people to compare our building with the past. Mixed together with the fine willow garden, there is an unscrupulous association. Once the Wangqiu Building is opened and the characteristics are publicized, I am afraid that the easiest people to come to the building are those regular customers. As for those who don’t know, we still think that we are a j courtyard. It also sells drinks. Since then, Wangqiu Tower has lost its reputation in the Internet. The positioning has confused customers from the very beginning, so there are only two ways to go. One way is to follow our beliefs, then we have to ask for flowers and willows. The guests are driven out, but the hospitality is not coming, and the business is gradually sluggish. Another way is to simply turn Wangqiu Tower into a fireworks field, but Ge Qiu girls won’t do it anymore, so you have to buy a batch of willing ones. No way, force her into prostitution."

Cen Er yelled, "Brother Mo, am I that kind of person?".Still forcing her into prostitution?He kept a distance and respected those Ge Qiuniangs in the building.

"That's the first way. I started a high-end restaurant business on this street selling vegetables, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and finally closed down." The whole doesn't fit.

"My boss must kill me." Cen Er didn't even dare to think about it.

"So it's not about the money, but the location. It's not an ordinary lively location, but—" Mo Zi didn't finish.

Cen Er opened his mind, "It's about going to a good and lively area, such as Yuhefang. Yuhefang gathers the best treasure buildings, restaurants, inns, silk shops, and famous medicine shops in Shangdu. There are many people coming and going. It’s not that I haven’t thought about it, but now it’s full of big merchants, and there’s no shop at all, let alone land with a garden. Anyone who wants to bring a garden must be a private house. Our restaurant can’t open In a private house."

"That's not necessarily true." Hearing that there was no shop, Mo Zi couldn't think of an idea for a while.Cen Er's last sentence gave her inspiration.

The aroma of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley.As long as Wangqiu Tower can settle in a good place, even if it is not facing the street, it may not be impossible to attract visitors.If you want to say that those who are really rich and powerful may not like to go to the street to listen to music and dance, just try to make it quiet and unique.Everything is different from Luozhou.Luozhou is a place full of businessmen, loves dignitaries, and loves to call out friends and friends. A group of people choose the most lively place, watching Mei Niang while looking at the street scene, and let passers-by listen to their laughter.All the capitals are imperial, princes, generals, and civil and military officials will occupy the best squares. I love to go to people's houses to appreciate flowers, and I like to go to people's mansions to drink wine.As soon as the house entered, the ordinary people had to go to the suburbs to enjoy the scenery of lakes and mountains, and the nobles of Shangdu surrounded their homes with beautiful scenery on good days.It's not that they don't like to go out, but because they have a high social class, they always go to places that match their status.

If Wangqiu Tower wants to be unique among the many restaurants in Yuhefang, use the elegant style of private houses to build flying beams and painted buildings, green water and white bridges, water pavilions, boats in the lake, and differently decorated packages in the garden. room, and then receive guests in a spacious and bright luxurious high-rise house, it is likely to be an instant hit.

"Little horse?" Mo Zi couldn't stop her thoughts once she opened her mind.

The donor was muttering in the back, very dissatisfied with Mo Zi and the others leaving suddenly, so when he heard Mo Zi call him, he should have strength.

"You don't have a shop in Yuhefang, do you have a private house?" Mo Zi didn't care about Xiao Ma's attitude.If it were her, she would be dejected if the cooked duck flew away.

"Private house?" Xiao Ma saw that the other party seemed to still intend to let him hook up, so he cheered up, raised his eyebrows, cocked his mouth, and thought for a long time, "Secluded, no."

"Are there any secluded ones? Is there any one on the other side of the city?" She didn't want to be too secluded.

"If you ask me that, there really is a family." Xiao Ma's eyes lit up first, then darkened, "To tell you the truth, Brother Mo, that family is a bit troublesome."

Donors who lie to the dead and don't pay for their lives are troublesome?

"Tell me and let me listen." Mo Zi was still curious.

Guys, don't scold me.

It’s not that I’m resigned as soon as I finished the list (although I fell to fourth in the end), it’s because I added too much a while ago, I’m exhausted, and there’s a lot of work backlog, and if I don’t finish it, I will be talked to by the boss.

Let me delay for two days, so that I can concentrate on work during the day, and start updating on weekends.

Sorry, but also thank you for your understanding.
