Siheyuan: I am reborn as a good person He Yuzhu

Master Li is a well-known wood carving artist with very sophisticated skills.

After receiving the design, he studied it carefully for a long time, and finally said, "Boss Liu, the plaque made according to this design will definitely become the distinctive symbol of your store."

Boss Liu was overjoyed when he heard this.

“Is it really that good?”

Master Li continued: "Not only that, I think the color and shape of the bird in this design are just right."

Having received high praise from professionals, Boss Liu excitedly introduced He Yuzhu to Master Li: "This is my good partner. Although he is young, he is very talented. He is not only a winemaker who produces and brews his own wine, but also the chief designer of our teahouse dim sum."

Although praised so highly by Boss Liu, He Yuzhu remained low-key and did not show his inner joy too much.

"This young man's design is really good, but I want to mention one thing first." Master Li said earnestly, "If you want to make a brand, the selection of materials is the primary consideration."

“No matter how skilled I am, if I don’t have the best wood, it’s all in vain.”

"I have already considered this." Boss Liu nodded in agreement. "Material selection is very important, so I plan to use materials of better quality, such as sandalwood..."

Boss Liu explained his plan in detail, while He Yuzhu listened silently without saying a word.

Master Li nodded in approval.

After a while, Master Li spoke:

"It's good to use sandalwood, but this thing is not cheap." He Yuzhu frowned slightly when he heard this. The cost of this material was indeed beyond his expectations.

He looked at Brother Liu and asked, "Brother Liu, isn't it necessary to use such high-grade materials?"

Brother Liu said, "Xiao Yuzhu, what do you know? This store is newly opened by us."

Then he explained: "If there is no special feature, how can a new store retain customers? I think it is better to use sandalwood, which is of high quality."

Seeing Brother Liu's firm attitude, He Yuzhu responded: "Okay... I will find a way to get a batch of high-quality sandalwood."

The next day, Brother Liu found a piece of high-quality sandalwood through his connections.

It took the craftsman three days to complete the carving of the shop plaque.

That morning, He Yuzhu and Brother Liu moved the plaque back.

"Xiao Yuzhu, your design is amazing. Business will definitely improve after this plaque is hung up!" Brother Liu said excitedly.

As he started selling a variety of exquisite dim sum, his teahouse became more and more popular, and he valued He Yuzhu more and more.

He Yuzhu smiled and asked, "How are the procedures going? When do you expect to open for business?" "Most of them are almost ready. It will probably be open in a few days." Brother Liu replied.

Hearing this, He Yuzhu became a little anxious: "Is there a specific opening date? You know it takes time to prepare dim sum." Brother Liu thought for a moment and replied: "It should be the day after tomorrow. I will ask them to speed up the decoration." He was also eager to open for business as soon as possible, because he had already informed some loyal old customers in advance, and everyone was looking forward to it.

However, since some necessary procedures have not been completed and some places still need to be renovated, the plan had to be postponed.

After learning about this arrangement, He Yuzhu finally felt relieved.

“Okay, I’ll start preparing tonight.

Ensure timely delivery." He knew that he would have to work overtime in this winery in the next few days.

This time, He Yuzhu was determined to make sure that everything went perfectly well.

After all, the business has just opened and the quality of the products is of great importance. If there are any problems, customers may be lost.

He intends to personally supervise and execute all subsequent work.

That afternoon, He Yuzhu stayed in the winery to carry out the final quality inspection.

Not only did he experiment with different types of snacks to sell, he also adjusted the wine-making process from time to time.

When we left the winery, the lights outside were already on.

He looked at the time on his mobile phone and estimated that his wife Xu Huizhen should have returned home, so he went straight back to their residence - a traditional-style courtyard house.

As soon as I stepped into the gate of the yard, Yan Bugui came up to me and said, "Hey, I heard you are going to open a shop?" Yan Bugui was famous for his love of sweets, but because he was always short of money, he rarely had the opportunity to satisfy his appetite.

As soon as I heard the news, I ran over to see if I could get some small advantage.

He Yuzhu said with some embarrassment: "That's true, but is there anything wrong?"

Yan Bugui smiled and rubbed his hands: "I'm a little short of money recently, can you give me a few pieces to taste?"

He Yuzhu raised his eyebrows and said with a hint of displeasure: "The desserts in my shop are limited in supply every day."

However, Yan Bugui immediately responded: "I know, I know, don't worry about that, I won't refuse to eat.

I can buy it with money. I'll pay you as much as you want. That should be fine, right?" After some thought, He Yuzhu finally agreed: "As long as I pay, it's fine."

When I returned to the house, the table was already filled with food.

He Yuzhu looked at Xu Huizhen who was placing plates of food, and asked in confusion: "Huizhen, how did you know that we were opening a store?" He originally thought that it might be his wife who spread the news.

"The neighbors in the yard are paying close attention to these movements." Xu Huizhen smiled as she posed, then motioned for him to eat quickly.

"It would have been much better if the store had been opened a few months earlier, so that it wouldn't have attracted too much attention." He Yuzhu sighed.

"Now that it's open, there will definitely be a lot of people paying attention to it, and some may even want to get a piece of the pie." Xu Huizhen chuckled, without much worry in her tone.

"Don't worry, if anyone dares to come and make trouble, Boss Liu will definitely deal with him!" He Yuzhu was stunned.

"Huizhen, what do you mean by that?"

"I mean, you shouldn't worry too much and just focus on managing the store.

"

Xu Huizhen often felt that He Yuzhu thought too much and always made simple things complicated.

He Yuzhu was also aware of his habit, so he smiled and continued to eat.

The next day, He Yuzhu went to the winery early to work as usual.

Today's task is to take out at least ten jars of newly brewed wine.

There was already a long line of guests waiting to make reservations in his small hotel.

He Yuzhu distributed the wine that had just been delivered from the winery to the guests who had made reservations and served them one by one in the order of their reservations.

A customer handed him a five-dollar bill and he began to pour drinks.

"Boss He, can you add some toppings to the wine here?" a middle-aged woman walked up and asked.

He Yuzhu was stunned.

“Auntie, what do you want to add?”

"Yes, I drank your wine yesterday and it was really delicious!" The woman had a satisfied smile on her face.

"Well, do you want to add something special?" He Yuzhu's heart moved. He knew that his own wine was popular, but he never thought that someone would want to add ingredients to it.

“Well… I can’t really say for sure, but it’s a good thing anyway.

"

“That won’t work. The preparation of medicinal liquor requires specific proportions and raw materials, and they cannot be changed at will.

"He Yuzhu said firmly.

At this moment, He Yuzhu noticed that many guests around him were also paying attention to the conversation here.

"What if we add more ingredients? Will the aroma of the wine be richer?" the middle-aged woman asked anxiously.

You can tell she really wants more.

However, for He Yuzhu, the customer flow in his store is far beyond the reach of other stores.

Although the limited supply of raw materials made him reluctant to expand his customer base, the behavior of the middle-aged woman in front of him still disgusted him.

He felt that this person was no ordinary consumer and seemed to be particularly interested in his exclusive secret recipe.

"Auntie, this is not appropriate. This is our unique secret recipe.

"

"Then I can offer a high price? Please rest assured, as long as you reveal the formula to me, I will pay you double the money.

“The middle-aged woman’s emotions seemed somewhat urgent.

He Yuzhu frowned, “Although your offer is indeed good, I can’t do such a thing just for the money.

' He shook his head firmly.

When the middle-aged woman saw He Yuzhu's unshakable attitude, a trace of disappointment appeared on her face, and then she sighed softly.

"Well, if you don't want to, I won't force you.

"After saying this, the woman turned and left.

The onlookers around were talking about it.

“This woman is really weird.

"

“Indeed, her expression was as if she was longing for something irresistible, as if she had a deep hatred for Boss He.

"

He Yuzhu also heard these comments.

"Boss He, do you know that woman?" a curious customer leaned over and whispered.

He Yuzhu shook his head and responded, "That's strange.

"The other person continued.

“What’s strange?”

"I think this woman looks familiar. Could she be an employee of the new liquor store in the west? An employee of the new liquor store in the west district?"

He Yuzhu immediately thought of the pub in the West District that had opened last month and was said to be not doing well.

He suspected that the middle-aged woman in front of him might be someone sent by the other party to conduct investigation.

This could very well be a common commercial ** activity. Thinking of this, He Yuzhu sneered in his heart.

“It doesn’t matter who sent her, as long as she doesn’t cause me trouble.

"Someone echoed.

"Yes, there aren't enough people who like to make small calculations like this, right?"

"Indeed, who can resist the opportunity to make a fortune?"

Faced with the noisy discussions of the crowd, He Yuzhu did not show much interest or worry.

However, this episode did make him feel a little uneasy.

That evening, as the number of guests gradually decreased, He Yuzhu found Xu Huizhen and took her to the backyard.

"Huizhen, tell your brothers too. If anyone comes to ask about the details of our medicinal wine, tell them you don't know.

“Although he believed that people in the store would not disclose confidential information, he still felt that preventive measures were necessary.

Moreover, this matter itself does seem a bit strange. If it is really a trap set by the other party, then remaining vigilant is also to prevent anyone from taking advantage of it.
