Daughter of aristocratic family

Chapter 240 Pandian
There were footsteps at the top of the stairs, and a middle-aged man walked down. He was dressed simply, but had a calm temperament and a bit of melancholy on his face.

He bowed to Yao Shanzhi and Zhao Wangshu and asked, "Are these two girls wanting to take over this store?"

"Yes, we want to take over this store." Yao Shanzhi nodded and said.

"The two girls have also seen it. Although this store has three floors, each floor is not spacious and it is quite difficult to operate. Girls, please consider it carefully." The middle-aged man said sincerely.

Hearing this, both Yao Shanzhi and Zhao Wangshu were a little surprised. In this situation, he was not in a hurry to take action, but instead told the truth so frankly, which shows his character.

"We understand your concerns, but we are confident that we can run this store well." Yao Shanzhi said firmly.

"And we don't open a teahouse, we open a beauty salon." Zhao Wangshu said with a smile.

Yao Shanzhi looked at Zhao Wangshu confused, what is a beauty salon?
However, she did not dismantle Zhao Wangshu, "We will run this store well. How much money do you plan to transfer the store to us?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said: "If you two girls want to take over, just give me nine hundred taels of silver."

"Okay, then for nine hundred taels of silver, let's go to the government office to apply for paperwork." Yao Shanzhi agreed happily and did not bargain with him.

After completing the paperwork, the store became Yao Shan Zhi. Yao Shan Zhi dragged Zhao Wangshu to a restaurant for lunch and asked her, "What is a beauty shop?"

Zhao Wangshu took a sip of tea and slowly told her, "The beauty shop is the same as the rouge shop in that they also sell lip balm, hair oil and other products. The difference is that we provide makeup and skin care services."

Yao Shanzhi thought for a while, "In other words, we still need to invite the makeup girl?"

"Not only these, we also need to teach them how to match customers' clothes, how to give customers massages, how to clean their faces, etc. We want customers to enjoy the ultimate excellent service after they come in, so that they feel it is worth their money." Zhao Wangshu explained simply.

"This idea is quite novel. Why didn't I think of it before?" Yao Shanzhi said in surprise.

"Now that I remind you, you will know." Zhao Wangshu said with a smile.

"How many people should we invite?"

"For the time being, please hire three makeup ladies, three assistants, three assistants, and a shopkeeper and an accountant." Zhao Wangshu crossed his fingers, "There are eleven people in total."

"I'll invite the people, I'll have the goods prepared, and you'll be responsible for how to run the store." Yao Shanzhi arranged the things.

"No problem." Zhao Wangshu replied readily.

After talking about the business, the two of them imagined the grand opening of the store.

"We will definitely be able to count the money until our hands are weak." Yao Shanzhi looked like a man of wealth.

Zhao Wangshu smiled, "Since when did you like silver so much?"

"You can't buy delicious food without money." Yao Shanzhi said.

"The eldest princess has deducted your monthly payment?" Zhao Wangshu asked curiously.

Yao Shanzhi nodded with a grimace, "I am using my old money now."

"I'll treat you to this meal." Zhao Wangshu said generously.

"Yue'er, you're the best." Yao Shanzhi immediately showed a big smile, his eyes shining with gratitude.

During the chat, the food in the restaurant was served.

The fat and tender drunken chicken, the bright red braised pork, the milky white fish soup, and several exquisite side dishes all exude an alluring aroma and make people salivate.

"I'm really hungry." Yao Shanzhi picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of drunken chicken and put it into his mouth. The chicken was tender and juicy, the aroma of wine overflowed, and it tasted great.

Zhao Wangshu looked at Yao Shanzhi eating with gusto, and also picked up a piece of braised pork. The meat was soft, fat but not greasy, and very delicious.

While eating happily, there was a noise outside. Yao Shanzhi said excitedly: "Let's go for a walk. There's something exciting to see. Let's go out and watch the excitement."

Zhao Wangshu drank the fish soup in the bowl, followed her out, leaned on the railing and looked down. "Hey, hey, is that Han Zhiqing?" Zhao Wangshu was not sure.

"It's her." Yao Shanzhi replied.

Zhao Wangshu squinted and asked, "What is she doing?"

"Competing talents with others." Yao Shanzhi raised his eyebrows.

"Did you arrange it?" Zhao Wangshu glanced at her.

"As the tide goes, she wants to be a talented girl, so we have to let her get her wish." Yao Shanzhi said in a strange tone.

"She really thought she was talented. She actually competed with the students from Zhizhai Academy." Zhao Wangshu recognized that the talented students were wearing Zhizhai Academy student uniforms.

"Yue'er, look at her proud look, isn't it funny?" Yao Shanzhi asked sarcastically.

Zhao Wangshu nodded slightly. Han Zhiqing thought she was talented, but her talent was insignificant in front of real talents.

The two stood by the railing, looking down at Han Zhiqing and the students of Zhizhai Academy.

Han Zhiqing was wearing a light blue dress with a delicate hosta on her head. She looked quite like a talented woman.

She held a pen in her hand and was concentrating on splashing ink on a painting.

The students from Zhizhai Academy sat aside and waved their folding fans.

"These people are pretty good at pretending." Zhao Wangshu curled his lips, and in March he waved his folding fan to pretend to be suave.

"If you don't pretend, you won't be able to invite them." Yao Shanzhi said with a smile.

"It turns out it's only half a catty." Zhao Wangshu took out two plum candies and stuffed one into Yao Shanzhi.

Han Zhiqing's painting was quickly completed. She smiled proudly and handed the scroll to a maid next to her.

The maid unfolded the scroll and showed it to everyone.

The picture shows a small landscape with a meandering river bank and shaded poplar trees.

"A painting of a tiger cannot be compared to a dog." Zhao Wangshu could tell at a glance that Han Zhiqing looked like the fifth chapter in Gao Weisheng's "Nine Chapters on Landscapes".

Gao Weisheng's original painting is very artistic. The river bank is lightly rendered with light ink, the distant mountains are rendered with cyan, and the mountains and river banks are separated by white mist.

The poplar branches near the shore are delicately outlined, and the branches and leaves are rendered with light ink, like blue clouds and mist. The whole painting is unified and harmonious.

The riverbanks and distant mountains in Han Zhiqing's paintings appear too dense, lacking the elegance and artistic conception of the original works.

The description of the white mist also seems stiff, without the hazy beauty in the original work.

The poplar trees near the shore are even more outrageous. The outline of their trunks is rough and the branches and leaves are so dense that there is almost no sense of blue clouds.

"Miss Han, is this painting the fifth chapter of Gao Weisheng's "Nine Chapters on Landscapes"?" a student asked.

"Yes." Han Zhiqing nodded.

The student said bluntly: "Gao Weisheng's paintings pay attention to the artistic conception and vivid charm. Your paintings are too stiff and lack artistic conception. They are not similar in form and spirit."

Han Zhiqing's face changed slightly, "I'm not very good at painting. I'm not very good at painting. I wonder if Mr. Mo can draw one and let me learn from it, okay?"

She begged softly, and most men couldn't resist. The Mo scholar blushed slightly and went over to paint.

Yao Shanzhi commented: "It's really stupid." He scolded two people in one sentence.
