Chapter 808 Unexpected joy

"Master Zhu, the owner of the shop that I saw yesterday agreed to change hands, and even offered to reduce the rent by one tael per month. You can sign the contract now."

Early in the morning of the second day, Fang Ya ran to Huaihou Mansion with a blushing face, and told Zhu Pingan the good news with spittle.

"Is there such a good thing?"

Zhu Pingan came from the inner courtyard to the outer courtyard. After hearing the news Fang Ya said, he was surprised. There are still people who take the initiative to lower the rent these days?

Then Zhu Pingan nodded with a smile, hung the money bag in his hand on his waist, and followed Fang Ya out of Linhuaihou Mansion.

In the yard far away, Baozi’s little maid Hua’er poked her head out from behind a bush of blooming roses, showing half of her head, a pair of big eyes rolling around, a bun face full of collagen, curious and nervous, Like a little lady catching an adulterer, she looked at the direction Zhu Pingan was leaving.

Uncle just asked Miss to borrow a hundred taels of silver.

Miss gave it to uncle without even asking. What if my uncle learns badly from others and goes out to drink flower wine, or go to some dubious place?

Now in the Hou Mansion, it is said that my uncle is the youngest fifth-rank official in Ming Dynasty, and that my uncle's future is limitless. Many girls in the mansion don't look right at my uncle.

It is Zijuan, the big girl next to the old lady, who seems to be a little bit wrong recently.

That's one hundred taels of silver, so the lady is not worried.

If the uncle goes out to flirt with women again, the lady will definitely be sad.

no.

I have to go and see, and help the lady to watch the uncle.

You can't let my uncle do wrong things.

With the idea of ​​curing diseases and saving lives, the little girl Baozi firmly nodded her head, and then clumsily dropped far behind Zhu Pingan and Fang Ya.

Although he was clumsy, but fortunately the distance was far enough that Zhu Pingan didn't notice it either.

Of course, it is also a loss that Liu Mu and Liu Dadao went to the gate of the city to pick up Liu Dachui and the others early in the morning, and did not follow Zhu Pingan. The old hunters who have been hunting in the mountains all year round have found it more than ten times.

It was already past eight o'clock in the morning, and the gate of Xinghuamen was wide open, and no traffic was allowed. There were a lot of cars and people, and it was a bustling place.

Fang Ya was half a step behind Zhu Ping'an, and they walked towards Xinghua Gate together, planning to go to that shop to sign a contract.

Yesterday afternoon, Fang Ya had already negotiated with the landlord. The agreement was that the three parties would meet this morning and then directly sign the contract.

After the contract was finalized, Fang Ya was in a happy mood, and walked all the way to introduce nearby shops to Zhu Pingan.

For example, the owner of this shop is very stingy, not only deducting the wages of the shop assistants, but also selling things often short of catties. When you visit this shop in the future, you must pay attention.

For example, the shop was stolen last time, and even the vases in the shop were stolen, all of which were emptied.

Another example is the opening of this restaurant the day before yesterday. Five or six orchids with **** and big butts were invited from outside the Great Wall. They danced with their bare feet and navels exposed, twisting their buttocks. While speaking, Zhu Pingan obviously saw his Adam's apple swell, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva, obviously salivating at the scene of Orchid dancing.

Zhu Ping'an nodded and responded softly while walking.

Orchid dancing, um, it’s probably the belly dance of the Western Regions, it’s an Arabian-style dance in the Middle East. Even in modern times, this kind of **** and charming belly dance can easily be associated with sex. In ancient times, it was only normal for people to be considered immoral.

Um.

When opening, invite orchids to dance, hehe, it seems that ancient restaurants are also well versed in some marketing methods.

but.

Still rough.

It seems that it is time for you to see the real marketing.

Zhu Ping'an slightly hooked the corners of his lips, and stepped forward. Under the sun, the young man's sunny smiling face almost dazzled people's eyes.

This is the street where the finalized shop is located. There are shops on both sides of the street. There are taverns, inns, cloth shops, teahouses, pen, ink, paper and inkstone shops, etc. In front of the shop, there are small stalls selling farm products, selling Fruit sellers, candied haws, and fortune tellers... Although the stalls are small, the business is good, and the stall owners are vying to attract customers.

At the foot of the imperial capital, full of energy.

There are a lot of people on the street, high and low, everyone's face is full of yearning for a better life.

Next to the street is a Beijing-Hangzhou canal leading to the inner city river in the city. Boats come and go on the wide river, end to end. The boatman shouts and shakes the oars. It was full of goods, and the laborers carried the goods barebacked, and unloaded them nervously and orderly.

There is a stone arch bridge in front of the dock area, which spans the inner city river and connects the two banks. The stone arch bridge is not as magnificent as the Zhaozhou Bridge, but it is taller, and the bridge opening is high enough and wide enough to not affect the passage of ships in inland rivers at all.

People are coming and going on the bridge, and boats are coming and going under the bridge, which makes the flow of people on this side of the arch bridge extraordinarily large.

Just a few steps past the arch bridge, Fang Ya pointed to a shop and reminded Zhu Pingan, "Lord Zhu, look, this is the shop."

Zhu Ping'an stopped and looked along Fang Ya's fingers. This is a shop with a width of two rooms, which is about 60 square meters.

This is a pastry shop.

You can smell a sweet and greasy smell from a long distance. This smell reminds Zhu Ping'an of the Fujialin pastry shop not far from the university gate when he was in college.

This is a very classical pastry shop with antique decoration. The shelves of the shop are full of various pastries, such as steamed short cheese with sugar, chestnut flour cake steamed with sweet-scented osmanthus sugar, ruyi cake, acacia cake, auspicious fruit

However, although there are many tricks, the business of this pastry shop is relatively deserted. In the Xinghuamen area where people come and go, this shop seems out of place.

Zhu Pingan took a look at the wooden signs stuck behind various pastries, and probably understood why the business in the shop was deserted.

The price is too expensive.

The price of any kind of pastry is more expensive than beef and mutton, obviously only the upper class can enjoy it. However, most of the people who come and go on the street are common people, as well as hard-working laborers and trackers. There are only a small number of passing merchants and wealthy people.

Object positioning is wrong.

Beijing city, the east city is rich and the west city is expensive! Xuanwu is poor, Chongwen is broken!

If this pastry shop opened in the wealthy districts of East City and West City, the business might be quite different.

Zhu Ping'an shook his head slightly, followed Fang Ya across the main entrance of the store, and walked into the backyard of the store from the corner door on the side.

The backyard is clean, with flowers, grass, and a clump of bamboo.

Fang entered the backyard, and a touch of red came into Zhu Pingan's eyes.
