delicious little cook

Chapter 422
The curfew only prohibits people from walking freely on the street outside the square, and does not control the lively nightlife inside the square. In addition, it is almost summer, and the night breeze is cool, and there are more stalls on the street for the night market.

The door of Zhuangzhai's tooth store was still open, and when they saw Bai Kou bringing the eldest son, they immediately got into a car and took them to see the Wangpu.

"Gu Shizi, this shop definitely meets your requirements. There is an inner wall between the front shop and the back house. Only a corner door is opened. When the small corner door is closed, the front and rear are blocked. People who live in the house can directly enter and exit through the back door, without affecting the business of the front shop. "The toothman explained the situation concisely and clearly.

"The prosperous shop in Tianshuifang has always had a very good business. Even if it is rented out for a year, the rent is still high. How can the landlord be willing to sell it?" Gu Yun asked curiously.

"Hey, what kind of landlord? The owner of this shop is an outhouse raised by a businessman. The grandmother of the main house found clues from the account books and private letters, brought her own son to the door to liquidate the inheritance, and kicked out the outhouse with a black nose and a swollen face. , All the staff were fired, the business was closed, and the price was lowered than the market price in order to sell it as soon as possible. We have been thinking that the prince wants to open a good shop, and when he finished the formalities, we informed the white manager afterwards, and we didn't dare to delay for a while. "

"Thank you for being considerate."

The shop is located in the core circle of Shizi Street. From the location of the shop, it can be seen how much the businessman loved the outer room. Everything in the front shop and back house still maintains the original appearance of the previous owner's business and life. The kitchen There are still half-cooked meals in the back house, and there are traces of a fight in the back house. As long as it is thoroughly cleaned and cleaned up, the new owner can move in and prepare for business opening.

The store in front is a building on the second floor, with left and right side rooms. At the bottom of the corridor on the second floor, you can see the courtyard of the back house beyond the inner wall. Bai Kou looked upstairs and downstairs. The former owner used the second floor as a warehouse. But Bai Kou thinks that the second floor can be vacated to open a women's tea room, only accepting female customers, male guests are not allowed, and the downstairs only sells the products produced by the workshop. From now on, the workshop will only be responsible for bulk shipments, so as to save the neighbors from having to pay for a piece of soap. It's fresh and not dirty.

Gu Yun went back and forth to check all the rooms. Three inverted rooms were built on the inner wall of the inner house, and a kitchen, firewood, storage room, etc. were set up. After closing the corner door, it is a complete house.

The toothman kept talking non-stop. This is the most suitable shop that can be found in the short term. If you want to build up a few more shops, you have to spend time and wait patiently. As long as there is a prosperous shop that is vacant, you must notify the customer in time. Prince.

Gu Yun was not in a hurry to grab a few storefronts at once, one counted as one, and the house would be destroyed if it was not needed and kept idle.

Bai Kou also went back to Gu Yun after looking at the inside and outside environment, and asked about the house price. After including the commission to the dentist, it was equal to the market price. It can be seen that the real landlord really set a low price in order to get rid of it as soon as possible. If it wasn't for the tooth shop wanting to be Gu Yun's long-term business, it really wouldn't be able to get it.

After a few words, Gu Yun asked Yaren to leave the key and leave on his own. After two or three days, he went to the Yaman to sign a contract.

"The bounty money given by the palace, how long have you kept it in your hands, and you just went out like this." Gu Yun stood in the courtyard of the shop, looked up at the corridor on the second floor around him, and played with the key ring on his finger.

"When you make transparent glassware, you can earn back as many of these shops as possible."

"The stable production of transparent glazed ware is the wish of the glazed craftsman. It seems that you don't take it seriously?"

"Business secrets, this cannot be told to you."

"Hey, don't be like this, tell me a little? Otherwise, if someone asks about the principle of this transparent vessel in the future, wouldn't it be a joke if I can't explain it?"

"Okay, first of all, the purer the raw materials, the better, and the fewer impurities, the better."

"Well, then what?"

"Then? Then I can't say it. It's related to the whole craft. Let you know. If you drink too much to show off to others, the window paper will be broken as soon as you poke it. The whole craft will be worthless immediately. You don't want to be the only one. business?" Bai Kou rolled his eyes at Gu Yun.

Gu Yun suddenly stroked his chin guiltily, "I'm not someone who talks nonsense when I drink too much."

"No, it's about commercial secrets, no one can trust it."

"It's not like that. You have to ask craftsmen to work, right? At most you know some interesting theories, but you still need people to turn your theories into real things, right?"

"So both Liu Qiang and Liu Zhuang get double wages. Giving them high wages is to make them keep their mouths shut. They will also get big rewards at the end of the year. Let them know that the only way to work is for Young Master Gu Yun, the son of Lord Ye. , can have a bright future, live like a person, and even have the financial resources to buy a house belonging to them in Tianshuifang. People only have the motivation to move forward as long as they live with ambition and see hope, otherwise they must be in chaos. Life is going on, if the masters are passive subordinates, please reflect on yourself first."

"Are you insinuating?" Gu Yun raised his eyebrows.

"Absolutely not."

"Hmph, I don't care if you have it or not."

Gu Yun reached out and handed the key to Bai Kou, and waited for her to take it to the big key ring tied to her body, then took her hand, and took the lantern from her other hand to carry it by himself, illuminating the two people's feet. way.

"It's hard to get a store, go, tell me about your next business plan."

Bai Kou couldn't break away from Gu Yun's hand, so she could only let him lead her, walking around upstairs and downstairs, telling him what was on her mind.

"I have no objection to the layout of the ordinary shop on the first floor. The second floor is changed to a women's tea room? What are you going to do?"

After the two finished walking again, they stood in the corridor on the second floor. Gu Yun leaned on the railing and looked at the dark courtyard downstairs, not quite understanding Bai Kou's thoughts.

"A place that only accepts female guests, gives them a safe environment without harassment, and allows them to enjoy a pleasant and comfortable place to socialize. Maybe it will make them happy and they will place a big order."

"Place a big order? Just do the business of the rich lady? What do you use to lure them to come here for tea?"

"It depends on when the Liuli workshop can make what the servant girl wants. With the utensils to hold the food, is there any need to worry about the food?"

Facing Bai Kou's magnanimous self-confidence, Gu Yun couldn't help but curl his lips.

"That's right, as long as you play your signboard, you are not afraid that no one will come. Just a few rooms and a few tables on the second floor, the wealthy daughters, grandmas, wives, and wives in this workshop alone cannot receive them. You can't Let the guests crowd and push."

"It's easy to handle. The place doesn't open very often. In order to avoid being crowded, we only accept reservations from guests. If it doesn't work out, this place will become a meeting place for women from rich and noble families to meet up in the future."

"Hmph, it's possible."

"And as long as people come, don't you buy something?"

"Do you still want to sell them glazed wares?"

"Those are called transparent glazed practical utensils. They are not good-looking on the shelf, but for daily use on the table. As long as they can be made, this women's tea room can also be opened."

"You old Bai's family has been royal chefs for generations, why did you become a business girl like you? Where did you get your business acumen?"

"My lord, your technique of changing the subject is too blunt." Bai Kou unabashedly rolled her eyes at Gu Yun, anyway, he couldn't see it now that he was blinded.

"I'm just curious to ask, is it okay to ask?"

"No."

"Okay, okay, don't ask if you don't ask." Gu Yun led Bai Kou down the stairs slowly, "Come on, go to the back house to have a look, first lock the front door, we will go through the back door after we finish reading."
