I opened a shopping mall in Xihuan

Since entering May, the weather in Rose City has gradually become hotter. When you wake up every morning, you can see the warm and bright sun when you open the curtains. Quite a novel experience.

As usual, after getting up, Plindeka was first served by the servants, then changed his clothes, combed his hair, and then went to the bathroom to wash up. The water is poured into the room, but the hotel facilities are so convenient, but the servants are at a loss when they are around. I don’t know when, Plindeka has become more accustomed to solving these things by himself.

After washing up and walking out of the bathroom, he was a little surprised to find that there were two more people on the sofa in his living room. They were his elder brother, Prince Yinlin, and the manager of the hotel, Mr. Pearl.

"Are you ready? Let's go when we are ready!" Prince Yin Lin stood up and said.

Prindkar was confused and asked, "What are you preparing for, where are you going?"

Prince Yin Lin raised a gentle smile: "The shopping mall is open today. Don't you want to visit it a long time ago? You can go there now."

When the two princes first came to Los Angeles, their plan was to play here for a month, but when the one-month deadline came, they were reluctant to leave.

Especially Plindeka, he is used to the convenient life in the hotel, and he feels that staying in Los Angeles is much more comfortable than staying in Bayswater, even if he doesn't do anything every day, just lie on the sofa and listen to music Reading a book makes him feel very happy.

In addition, there is a novel high-rise building in the west, which is said to be a large shopping mall with comprehensive dining, leisure and shopping places in the future. They have never visited this type of building, so the brothers discussed with the knight commander and sent it to the palace. A letter, the letter said bluntly that they wanted to play in Los Angeles for a while longer and wait until the mall opened before going back.

Then, unknowingly, they waited until now, and two months had passed since the two princes came to Ross Field.

Prindka looked at Pearl in surprise: "It opened so soon?"

"No, it's just a trial operation," Pearl said with a smile. "There are still a few stores that are not ready yet, and the mall will officially open in half a month."

"Oh, that's good." Prindka breathed a sigh of relief, so that they could stay in Rose for another half a month.

Since there is no need to think about going back for the time being, Prindka quickly raised his interest and said, "Then let's go, but before that, I need to have breakfast."

The carriage moved along the crowded Schlevogel Street at a moderate speed, and after passing the end of the street, it drove into an empty cypress forest.

The head-on warm wind was slightly intoxicating, making Prince Yin Lin's eyes narrow. He leaned on the soft cushion inside the carriage, looking aimlessly at the outside world through the light yellow gauze curtain of the carriage.

Ahead, the strong sunlight shone on the horse's mane, as if coating the horse with a layer of golden light.

The groom drove the carriage to speed up, and in a short while passed through the newly opened wall door in the Maria district, and entered a flat and wide square.

Prindka leaned his head to the window next to the carriage, with bright eyes open, looking at the diamond-shaped fountain spraying water mist towards the blue sky from the tall and lush two-row sycamore tree-lined avenue in the distance, he asked curiously: "What is this?" There are new squares all around?”

Pearl: "Yes, Your Highness."

"I heard that it turned out to be a slum area, so I can't tell it at all."

"It's really good," Prince Yinlin commented, "Although it's not as bustling as the City Hall Square, it's more peaceful and clean than the City Hall Square."

Prindka: "Maybe this place will be more lively than City Hall Square in the future."

Prince Yin Lin pondered for a few seconds, then smiled and said, "It makes sense."

About three to five minutes later, the carriage stopped at the parking area at the entrance of the shopping mall under the command of the security guards. The knight captain jumped out of the carriage first to check the safety of the surroundings, and helped the two princes get off the carriage after confirming that there was no problem.

Prindka straightened his wind-blown hair, saw that there were other carriages in the parking area, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is there anyone else who came before us?"

Pearl explained: "Although it is a trial operation, it is indeed open to the outside world, and anyone can come in."

Prince Yin Lin led the way up the steps and said, "Let's go in and have a look."

A few people walked through the mall gate in the center. As soon as they entered the mall, there were restaurants on the left and right sides, namely Xia Zhisen's hot pot restaurant and Bopina restaurant. The two restaurants faced the aisle with glass doors and windows, and the interior was exquisitely decorated. no more.

It was already approaching lunch time, and Plindeka saw that the two restaurants were full of customers eating in twos and threes, so he asked Pearl, "Are we eating here at noon?"

"There are many gourmet shops in the shopping mall. It depends on the preferences of the two Highnesses," Pearl replied politely. "If Your Highness doesn't like to have lunch with strangers, I can take the two of you to the garden restaurant upstairs in the hotel. The hotel's The restaurant is not open to the public."

Hearing this, Yin Lin turned his head and asked, "Is the hotel here also open?"

"Yes."

"Is it any different from the one we live in downtown?"

"It's a little different. The hotel rooms here have higher floors, and the rooms on the top floor have balconies, which are larger and more carefully furnished."

After the recruitment of employees in the shopping mall hotel was completed, Youxia felt lazy and dispatched Pearl to train them for a few days, so Pearl is also very familiar with the hotel here.

Prince Yin Lin nodded: "Sounds good, take us up to have a look later, if the room here is more comfortable, we will move here for the last time."

Pearl responded, "No problem."

Then, under the leadership of Pearl, the two princes and the knight commander wandered together in the shopping mall. Because there are many gourmet shops on the first floor, every time they pass by a shop, the unique food smell of nearby shops wafts in the air.

"It smells so sweet..." Prince Yin Lin took a deep breath, "It's so tempting."

"It's the dwarf pastry shop on Schlevogelstrasse," said Pearl. "Would you like to go in and see?"

"No, I'm not hungry yet."

As soon as the words fell, Prindka asked again: "What does this store sell? I smell onions and butter?"

Pearl looked up at the signboard, and introduced to the two princes: "It's a restaurant opened by the Yilan people. Their original store is on Kumbrun Street. The signature dishes are butter stewed chicken and onion stewed pork."

"I've never tasted chicken stew with butter." Prindka felt a little greedy when he smelled the aroma.

Pearl said thoughtfully: "If you need it, I'll buy one for you. All stores in the mall can pack it."

"Okay." Plindeka responded, and immediately saw the exquisitely decorated tavern in front of him, so he arranged: "My brother and I will go to the tavern first, and you will buy stewed chicken later and come to see us."

"Yes, Your Highness."

The tavern they went to was located in the center of the shopping mall. The tavern was very large. The wine cabinet and bar counter were set in the center of the storefront, surrounded by fully transparent glass.

Because the light inside the tavern is relatively dark, the outside scene appears clearer to the tavern guests. Sitting in front of the bar, sipping wine and looking around at the surrounding shops and all kinds of passers-by is a particularly novel and interesting experience.

During the trial opening period, although some shops with troublesome and exquisite decoration were still covered with curtains, most of the shops have already opened for business.

Plindeka leaned on the bar and watched the proprietress of the bakery opposite the window greet the guests. Seeing the scene full of life, he couldn't help raising the corners of his lips, and said to Prince Yin Lin beside him: "This is really a way to pass the time. Great place, right?"

"When it's officially opened, it should be very lively." Prince Yin Lin raised his glass and took a sip, "I heard that there are many shops on the second floor upstairs. From this point of view, it seems that Schlevoge Street has been folded and shrunk. It was stuffed into this building."

After listening to Yin Lin's description, Prindka thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he said in a cheerful tone, "Let's move to the hotel here, and we can go shopping anytime, anywhere."

Although it is convenient to live in the city center and want to go shopping, the shopping mall here is more interesting.

Yin Lin also imagined such a scene, lying on a quiet bed on the upper floor of the hotel at night, while the shopping mall downstairs is very lively with people coming and going, it is a very interesting picture.

He nodded and agreed, "Yes."

"Then I'll talk to Pearl later."

A moment later, Pearl came over with the steaming chicken custard, and Prindkar told him directly about their decision to move here.

Pearl said calmly: "I will convey your intentions to Mr. Youxia and Manager Seidamante."

Yin Lin asked: "Saida Mante is the general manager of the hotel here?"

Pearl lowered his head slightly: "Yes, after the two Highnesses live here, he will be in charge of the daily life of the two Highnesses."

Prindkar was dissatisfied: "It's Xia Zhisen's hotel anyway, can't you just come here and be our housekeeper?"

"This is not in compliance with the regulations. I need to seek the consent of Mr. Youxia."

"It's really troublesome." Plindeka frowned, opened the stewed chicken Pearl bought, tore off a piece of meat vigorously with a knife and fork, put it in his mouth, chewed and spat out the meat again, frowning He said, "It tastes weird."

"After all, it's such a big hotel, so it's understandable to have strict management." Prince Yin Lin smoothed things over with a smile, "Take us to visit the hotel rooms first."

Pearl responded, "Yes, Your Highness."

On the first day of trial operation, You Xia was worried that there would be some emergency and the employees would not know how to deal with it, so they came to the mall early in the morning to wait, and sometimes took the department manager down to walk around to check the safety and sanitation of the mall.

When the princes went upstairs to visit, You Xia was with the hotel manager Saidamant, preparing to go to the restaurant for dinner. The two people met in the hotel lobby, and they simply went to the garden restaurant for lunch.

Today's sunshine is relatively strong. Fortunately, there are thick vines with rose flowers outside the glass room as a cover, otherwise I wouldn't be able to stay in this not-so-breathable sun room for a long time.

Originally, You Xia prepared to eat casually for lunch, but now that there are two more princes, he has to ask someone to go to the kitchen to inform him to prepare more abundant dishes.

While waiting for the lunch to be served, Pearl told Youxia that the two princes were going to move to the hotel here, and Prindka added the idea of ​​asking Pearl to be their housekeeper.

"The two Highnesses want to live here, of course I have no problem here," Youxia said, "It's just that this belongs to the Maria district after all, and the sheriffs in the district are usually busy with other affairs and rarely come to patrol. Considering your safety, the Municipal Council still needs their consent, and my security here is limited, so it’s best to ask them to send some more people to protect your safety.”

Prindka immediately agreed: "It's not a problem, I'll ask the knight commander to notify you later."

You Xia nodded: "As for the butler..."

He glanced at Pearl, then sideways at Saidamante, and immediately understood the state of mind of the two princes.

When selecting a new hotel manager, Yuxia intentionally selected Seidamante, who had a good figure and a more handsome face, among a row of interviewees of similar standards because of Pearl’s example. , not to mention taking into account the management ability, even Saidamant, the best-looking among them, is still inferior to Pearl in terms of appearance and temperament.

Humans are visual creatures, and the two princes were accustomed to Pearl's service. In addition, the butler was so handsome, so it was normal to want to keep him by his side.

"Since Your Highness is more used to Pearl as a housekeeper, let's transfer Pearl here for the time being," Youxia arranged, and then said to the young man beside him: "You go to the city center to manage the hotel over there for a while, you I practiced there, so I should be able to handle it.”

Seidamante responded immediately: "No problem, sir."

After the matter was properly arranged, the waiter also brought the food to the table. For lunch, there were Chinese dishes from Youxia's kitchen and local dishes from Berpina's kitchen. All kinds of delicious food filled the long table, which was extraordinarily rich.

You Xia asked the two guests: "Your Highness visited the shopping mall downstairs, what do you think?"

"Interesting," Prince Prindka replied without hesitation, "we decided to move here just because we visited the mall."

"That's right," Prince Yin Lin raised his glass and said, "We are very much looking forward to the day when the mall officially opens."

You Xia bent the corners of his mouth, raised his eyes, and his eyes just fell on the eyes of the opposite Pearl. For a moment, it seemed that he saw a few rays of early summer sunshine from the pure blue eyes of the opposite party.

He said softly, "That day is coming soon."

On the evening before June was about to enter, the residents of Los Angeles pulled out a folded red poster from the crack of their doors.

Unfolding the poster, the front picture shows the wide fountain square and the grand building, and the title on the top reads in golden font: "Xiazhisen Shopping Mall officially opens tomorrow!"
