The Favorite of the Court of Joy

"How to do business? Of course it was truthful business, we failed to persuade you." Xue Yanru said, and then asked, "I heard from Wan Zi that you and Uncle Nine Emperors had a quarrel because of Yu Wenyu. What exactly is it?"

"It's none of Yu Wenyu's business. Because he doesn't love me." Speaking of Zhao Minghan, Zhang Xiaoqian was annoyed, "Why should I continue to stay with someone who doesn't love me."

"No, the emperor dotes on you."

"Yanru, listen clearly, what I want is love, not petting. Love can only love one person, but petting can be shared with many people."

The three immediately understood what he meant.

Zheng Yinger patted him on the shoulder, gave him a thumbs up, and said, "Xiaoqian, you are very brave. I admire you and support you."

"Dongyue Kingdom and surrounding countries are like this. Men have the right to three wives and four concubines, and women must be loyal to men, not to mention that the status of the beloved is inferior to that of women, and they can't make decisions about life and death. This is the tragedy of the whole world. Many I really envy the beauty of the so-called "modern world" in your mouth." Xue Yanru sighed, then smiled and said to Zhang Xiaoqian, "I also support you and admire you."

"Wanzi, how do you feel when you see those people downstairs again? Do you think they are doing well after leaving Xunhuan Pavilion?" Zhang Xiaoqian asked

Wan Zi shook her head and said, "I don't know what they've been through, but on the surface, it seems that everyone's life is not very good, and some people seem to be much thinner than before."

"That's right." Zhang Xiaoqian nodded, and continued: "I thought they would have a better life after leaving Xunhuan Pavilion, a place that sells jokes and meat, but I was wrong. They have a very bad life. Although those rough workers They are full of strength, but when others know that they are favorites, they will not hire them; and those good-looking ones have been trained how to seduce men since childhood, and learn some simple piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and have no other specialties. I saved money before, but I couldn’t support myself when it came to food, clothing, housing and transportation. Most of the darlings continued to sell, just for a ration. Some evil masters played with them and refused to give them money, and in turn beat them up. They They don’t slap their faces for fear of others knowing, they slap their bodies everywhere. They were covered with scars. When I called them back, when they heard that there was food to eat, they all expressed that they would follow me unconditionally. I saw them all in a state of distress. , I am distressed and ashamed.”

Zhang Xiaoqian paused for a moment, and then said: "Bai Mudan is better. But it's not very good. He lost the Xunhuan Pavilion, so he has no source of money, and basically all the savings he saved in the past were spent on Bai Lian , there is only one rice shop industry left, but it is difficult to make ends meet, and it is difficult to live every day."

"Seeing them live like that, I wondered if it was a mistake for me to close Xunhuan Pavilion." Zhang Xiaoqian said, "Now I have brought them all back, and assigned positions according to each person's characteristics, such as welcoming guests, Servers, lobby managers, accountants, cashiers, foremen, etc.”

"Yeah, you really look good." Zheng Yinger said.

"That is, if you want to do it, you have to do it decently." Zhang Xiaoqian said, "As long as they work hard, let alone give them a bite to eat, I will pay them wages. If they do well, they will be rewarded. If they do not do well , then you can’t blame me for being ruthless, I don’t support idlers here.”

Zheng Yinger took a sip of scented tea and said with a smile: "You invested regardless of cost, it seems that you have collected a lot from Uncle Nine Emperors."

"Hmph! I've been kind to him by not removing all of his property. I won't mention him, I'm upset if I mention him." Zhang Xiaoqian suppressed his anger with a sip of scented tea.

"Alright, let's not mention him.

Suddenly, Zhang Xiaoqian had another idea, and the three of them smiled and said, "Are you interested in investing?"

The three of them looked at each other, thinking that this was a good idea. They spent most of their time in the palace, so they couldn't actually help them. It would be fine to give him more money, but they didn't actually want to get something in return.

Just do it, Zhang Xiaoqian immediately drafted the contract and asked them to sign it. After they signed it, they said that they would send the money in the near future.

"The opening time is scheduled to be seven days later."

"Seven days later, is there any special day?" Zheng Yinger asked.

"It's Little Golden Pig's Hundred Days." Wan Zi answered for Zhang Xiaoqian, he remembered this day clearly.That day, he and Zhang Xiaoqian gave birth on the same day, Zhang Xiaoqian gave birth quickly, the child was born before midnight, and his child was born in the early morning of the next day, although the two children were born on two or three hours apart, they were not born on the same day.

"Yeah, I've finished the opening leaflets. Before you came, the people from the printing workshop just delivered the leaflets. I plan to have people distribute leaflets on the street in two days." Zhang Xiaoqian said to Xiaocheng, "Go and get some leaflets and give them to them."

Xiaocheng brought the leaflets and gave each of them one.This poster is full of pictures and texts. Zheng Yinger lamented that Zhang Xiaoqian really used the modern publicity methods to the extreme. The content of the flyer is simple, clear and attractive, especially the "[-]% off all purchases on the opening day" is the most attractive.It is also enough to show how much Zhang Xiaoqian spent in the early stage in order to attract customers.

"Okay, we are keeping this flyer, and we will definitely promote it for you." Xue Yanru said, "We should also return to the palace."

"Xiao Cheng, how is the sandwich preparation in the kitchen?" Zhang Xiaoqian asked.

"Back to the master, everything is ready."

"Bring them here." Zhang Xiaoqian ordered Xiaocheng, and then said to the three of them, "Let's go, I'll see you off."

If you want to go, you must support Ximei.

"Ximei, I probably still need help in the kitchen, you can stay and help me."

"Wan Zi..."

"Ximei, you can stay here. Studying dishes is your pleasure. There are so many maids in the harem taking care of me, as well as Yanru and Yinger, don't worry."

"Well, I'll stay." Ximei was very happy. She and Xiao Huang had just developed a new dish. It didn't taste much and could be used as a signature. He really likes cooking.

Everything was stable, Wan Zi accompanied Xue Yanru and Zheng Yinger back to the palace, he sighed several times along the way.

"What's wrong Wan Zi?" Xue Yanru asked.

Wan Zi shook her head and said: "It's nothing, I just admire Xiao Qian's bravery and courage." Although Wan Zi said that he has a child, the child is everything to him, as for whether the emperor will spoil him or not, he doesn't care.But the real self in my heart really doesn't care?No, he cares.From the bottom of his heart, he also longed for what Zhang Xiaoqian said, "I wish to have one person's heart and never leave each other". In this life, there is no regret in this life if there is only one person in love with each other.

"Well, he is really powerful, maybe he can really change the fate of you darlings." Zheng Yinger said.

Xue Yanru suddenly remembered that after the four of them visited Chengtian Temple in the second day of junior high school, there was a folk saying that Zhang Xiaoqian and Wan Zi were blessed by the Buddha to appear in the Buddha's light, and that the hundred-year-old painting may have Zhang Xiaoqian's arrival in the dark When God deliberately arranged, maybe...

"Maybe."

In Xunhuan Hotel, Zhang Xiaoqian proceeded methodically according to the plan.He didn't know how Xue Yanru and the three of them explained to the emperor, because no one came to persuade him to return to the palace afterwards.But the people in the palace came to see him every now and then, like the four blue, green and purple sisters. By the way, Xiaohong also came to see him once. Xiaohong thanked Zhang Xiaoqian again for helping her out of the sea of ​​suffering. After all, the treatment in the palace is so good. Say something.Butler Wu didn't come, but every time someone else came, he asked someone to bring them to say hello.

The leaflets have been distributed long ago, although some people threw them away without reading them, and some threw them away after a glance, only a few people kept the leaflets and planned to come to visit on the opening day.

In the hotel, people in various positions are also ready and ready to take up their posts at any time.

On this day, seven days later, at four o'clock in the morning, the five-star Xunhuan Hotel officially opened.

Zhang Xiaoqian invited the dragon and lion dance team, the drum team and the waist drum team to start the parade from the bustling market, attracting the followers of passers-by, and parade all the way to the hotel entrance, where a long red carpet was laid on the ground. It is 100 meters long.When the leading dragon and lion dance team was about to arrive, Zhang Xiaoqian immediately ordered fireworks to be set off.

The lively scene was set off by the sounds of "crackling" and "dongdong qiangqiang".The nearby Nanfeng Courtyard was woken up. Even though they opened the windows and scolded, the noisy scene had already overwhelmed their scolding.

Then, dragon and lion dances, chuida and waist drum teams performed in turn, which attracted the people even more.In addition to the attractiveness of these performances, it is difficult to ignore the welcoming Bilian and Bichi standing at the door. With standard smiles, they kept saying to the guests who entered: "Welcome to visit, welcome to visit."

In the past, you would have to spend money to see the smiles of these two beauties, let alone talk to them. Now as long as you walk inside, they will not only smile at you, but also take the initiative to talk to you. The old customers of Huan Pavilion can't wait to go inside.

There are quite a few people in the hall at the moment, and all the private rooms above have been booked. It seems that the business is going well on the first day and the first period of time. Bai Mudan is greeting some regular customers and asking them to order the most expensive dishes. , the most expensive wine, the most expensive scented tea, his business ability is the best in the whole Yanliu Lane.

In the hall, the most eye-catching slogans are: If you respect me, I will respect you.Please do not harass any employee of our store at will, otherwise they will be blacklisted, serious violations will be at your own risk.

But most people don't particularly care about this rule, they just say that Xunhuan Pavilion has changed its name and reopened.Originally, these people were itching to take advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of the favorite waiter, but when they saw some officials and some royal relatives who also came to Xunhuan Pavilion, and thought that the current boss was Prince Rui's side concubine, they did not dare to act rashly, otherwise they would eat Go to court.Anyway, not only can they get a [-]% discount for this meal, but they can also feast their eyes on seeing the beautiful darling serving them, and the darling playing and dancing on the stage. This meal, they have earned money.In short, if it tastes good, they will come to patronize again, if it tastes bad, they will never come again.

A variety of dishes and fine wines were delivered to the table one after another for the guests to taste.Facing the colorful and fragrant dishes and the mellow and luscious wine, many people have already decided to come to patronize tomorrow.
