The path of the villain is not easy

Chapter 16 Two Fakes
"Ahem." Changsun Ji, who was drinking tea, almost spit out a mouthful of water. "How many?"

"45 taels, if you don't believe me, young master, you can check the bill." Seeing that Changsun Ji reacted so strongly, the shopkeeper thought he didn't believe him, so he hurriedly said.

In fact, Changsun Ji did not believe him.Or rather surprised.He also thought about how this shop would make more than 1000 silver per month, and he also thought about supporting himself by it, but he didn't expect that the monthly profit of this shop was not enough to buy some good herbal medicines for himself.

But when he turned around and thought about it, he realized that the source of the inn was accommodation, and each person staying for one night only cost a dozen copper coins, plus some local tyrants who lived in private rooms, they could earn more.But not too much.

And the current inn is really just an inn, you can only live but not eat.Get rid of the guy's salary and all the clutter.It's quite a lot to be able to clean these things.

Seeing that the shopkeeper really took out the ledger and abacus and prepared to make a good deal.He waved his hand, indicating that he didn't have to do that.

"There's no need to be like this, I naturally believe you." After speaking, Changsun Ji pondered for a while, took out 20 taels of silver from his pocket and put it on the table, saying:

"You don't have to hand over this month's profit to the family anymore. Add the 20 taels of silver, and you go to hire a cook, buy a few tables, and find a few waiters. From now on, the first floor will be the place for guests to eat. In the future An inn is an inn that integrates food and lodging.”

"Well, can this work? My lord, most of the customers find restaurants to eat by themselves." The shopkeeper naturally understood what it meant, but asked hesitantly.

"Most of the people who come to stay here are on the way for a day, and most of them like to be lazy. Since you can eat in the inn, you will not look far away. If the guest asks, the meal can also be delivered to the guest's room. This will increase the number of guests. It's a customer source. Just do as I tell you." Changsun Ji said.

"Young master, it doesn't take that much money. Why don't you go back some more."

Changsun Ji looked up at the shopkeeper and said, "You are honest."

"With this money, you can hire a few waiters and a chef with better cooking skills. You can give them a higher salary. But you must do what I say."

"You say."

"The clerk recruits some honest and honest people. Whether it is dining, guiding, or lodging, as long as he is serving the guests, he must give me a smile. It doesn't matter whether he is rich, poor, or even a beggar, as long as he comes to the store. That is Our guests, treat him like me. Let them feel like a master."

"Also, no matter what the customer asks for, you must try your best to fulfill it. If you don't have anything in the store, you can buy it outside. Of course, it's a different matter for some excessive things or those who come here specifically to find something."

"You are hiring some pulp washers. The quilts in the store need to be washed and changed frequently, and the quilts are often dried in the sun. There must be no peculiar smell." Changsun Ji took a sip of tea to moisten his throat and continued:
"Naturally, as our services have improved, the fees will of course also increase. How much to raise is up to you."

"Did you remember everything I said?" Changsun Ji asked with a glance at the shopkeeper.

"Write it down, write it down, son."

"That's good, make them into store rules, and everyone in the store must remember. If someone can't do it, he will be fired directly. I will send someone to experience it. If you can't do it, then I will fire you."

"Don't worry, young master. The little old man will definitely do as you say." The shopkeeper nodded affirmatively.

Changsun Ji nodded, drank the tea in the cup, got up and left with Ma Xiao.When he walked out of the store, Changsun Ji turned his head to look again, and saw a flag with "Inn" planted aside, frowned, and said to the shopkeeper who was standing aside to see him off: "Go to those Pen and paper, I will come up with a store name."

Then turned around and went back to the store.Standing by the table, Changsun Ji took a pen, thought for a while, and wrote "Tianranju" on the paper.Then I wrote a pair of couplets, or the Disabled Persons' Federation "The guest went to the natural residence, and the guest was actually a guest in the sky."

During this period of time, he has been practicing Yan Zhenqing's handwriting, and it has achieved some results.His fonts are already a little out of date.

"Good words, good couplets! Young master is worthy of being a talented person who writes Taoist poems, and the writing style is brilliant!" The shopkeeper praised.The incident of the West Lake that day, and the fact that Changsun Ji and Ning Fang wrote Taoist poems have already spread in the capital.

Although I know that the shopkeeper is a bit exaggerated, he is flattering him.But he was very happy to shoot.

"You make this word into a plaque and hang it up. On this couplet, you can engrave these two sentences on the first couplet, and tell everyone that if someone writes the second couplet, then my eldest grandson will pay for his consumption in Tianranju this time."

As if remembering something, Changsun Ji threw away the brush, walked out of the store with a big laugh and left.

The next day, early morning.

Changsun Ji is practicing "Eight Directions Crossing" in the yard. If he has nothing to do, his life will be extremely monotonous. He practices "Eight Directions Crossing" in the morning and evening.

Practice the face and body when the sun is relatively basking, and use the juice to practice disguise at night.Generally speaking, it takes a long time to cultivate his facial features a day, which is also the main reason why his facial features have improved rapidly.

After this period of time, his "Eight Directions Crossing" has already started.Coupled with the eight years of skill in his body, he believes that with a few more months of practice, this skill can be achieved in a small way.

Ma Xiao stood aside, watching Changsun Ji practice without disturbing him.After Changsun Ji finished breathing out, he approached and said, "My lord, Monk Xuanhai was rescued. Two guards died in Jingzhaoyin prison."

"Oh, is that so?" Changsun Ji was not surprised. In fact, when he visited the prison pretending to be Princess Ling'an that day, he knew that Monk Xuanhai would be rescued.Because that day, besides him, there was another person pretending to be Princess Ling An to visit the prison.

He was taken aback and nearly collided with another.He originally thought that the other one would be real, but later, when he came back and sent someone to investigate, the real Princess Ling An actually stayed in the palace and never went out.

Immediately, I knew that both of them were fake and shoddy products.However, if it really counts, which one of him is nine yuan and nine free shipping, and the other one must be a fake on Pinxixi, and it also has free shipping by the way.After all, he still has a disguise technique, and the other one is at most a human skin mask.

As an old enemy in the previous life, Changsun Ji didn't want to kill Xuan Hai, but he couldn't.Whether it's him or another person pretending to be Princess Ling'an, it can only be said that he has the right to spare Xuan Hai's flesh and blood or add personal insults to him.

But it is very difficult to let him go or kill him.Because the jailer does not obey orders, special prisoners like Xuan Hai who are involved in the court do not have orders from above.They will not let him have an accident, because it will make them have a lot to do.

He was not angry about Xuan Hai's escape, because he still had this last move waiting for him.The enemy is bright and we are dark, he has enough time to prepare.
