Reborn Concubine, Be Respectful First
Chapter 70 If you want power, you must first make money
"Third Miss, Third Miss, spare my life!"
"Miss San, Birou will be obedient in the future. Please don't send us back. I kowtow to you."
Looking at the two people kneeling on the ground, who did not directly answer her questions, Su Xinqing was not anxious.
After all, everyone who should know knows.
"Hmph! How dare you come to our mansion to play tricks!" Zhang glared at the two of them angrily, and really thought that there was no one left in their mansion of Marquis Zhenbei.
Who dares to interfere in their Marquis's Mansion? Even though Chu Yu is not very capable, the Marquis is still in his prime. This is really too much!
He flicked his sleeves and left.
When Jiang saw Zhang leaving, she looked coldly at the two people kneeling on the ground with very ugly faces, and followed them.
Sure enough, before Su Xinqing brought the two back to her own courtyard, they were taken away again by Nanny Gong.
"Girl, will Birou and Murui die?" Banyue couldn't help but ask. After all, they had been living in the same courtyard for more than ten years.
Although the two men had bullied her a lot in the past, when it came to the moment of life and death, Banyue couldn't help but soften her heart.
"Well, maybe. They chose their own path."
What's more, these two people also betrayed her in the previous life and were a sword in Li's hand. Even in the He family, she treated them better than Banyue, but still did not win their sincerity. They helped Li and Su Xintao deceive her and died in vain in the backyard. In this life, she gave them a chance and they were still willing to be a sword in Li's hand. So she shouldn't blame herself.
Su Xinqing looked at the night outside, her thoughts drifting away.
Ban Yue wanted to continue to plead with Bi Rou and Murui, but was interrupted by Shan Lan: "Ban Yue, the master is tired after running all day. Go to the small kitchen and see if the water boiled for the master is ready. Let's help the master wash up."
After hearing Shanlan's words, Banyue also saw Su Xinqing in a trance, and hurriedly said that he was confused, and hurried out.
At night, neither the master nor the servant noticed that Shanlan quietly left Fufeng Pavilion and went to the front yard of the Marquis' Mansion.
During the next half month, Su Xinqing's life was finally relatively peaceful.
However, Shanqing brought in news from outside, saying that the two little maids sent back to the Earl of Yong'an's Mansion by the Marquis' Mansion were sold.
Su Xinqing's hands, which were not embroidering, did not stop for a moment, indicating that she did not care.
Banyue wanted to ask, but seeing his master's attitude, he didn't say much.
Shan Qing continued to talk, saying that the Jiang family in Beijing had reopened a restaurant called Haidilao. Each person only needed 200 silver coins to eat their fill, and there was plenty of good wine and food.
It just opened these two days ago and is very lively. It is located on the busiest street in the capital, and there is a place to listen to music on the first floor.
The second floor is a more elegant private room, which also serves chestnut cake and hibiscus cake from Ruifulou, as well as bamboo leaf wine from Titianxianglou, which are very popular among many young ladies and ladies in Beijing.
The fee is also higher than on the first floor, one or two taels of silver per person.
Today is the third day of opening, and the number of people queuing outside has already reached half a month later.
There are only twenty places available on the second floor every day, and there are one hundred places on the first floor, which is still not enough.
Banyue's attention was quickly attracted by Shanqing's mention of Haidilao.
"Girl, the chestnut cake and hibiscus cake at Ruifulou are so hard to buy that you have to queue up. A pound of cake costs one or two taels of silver. If someone only eats cakes, wouldn't they lose a lot of money? What's more, it's even harder to get a jar of Zhuyezui. How can they do business like this? No wonder Haidilao is doing such a good business. If you can go there for a meal, the Jiang family will lose money no matter how you calculate it, right?" Banyue couldn't understand why there were people doing business like this.
"Is there such a good thing? A jar of wine from Zhuyezui in Tianxiang Tower may be sold for one tael and five cents of silver. If Shanwu and I go to drink a jar, wouldn't we make it back? Is there really no restriction? As long as we give the silver, we can eat and drink as we please?" Shanlan's eyes lit up, as if the good wine and delicious food were right in front of him.
Shan Qing nodded: "According to the people who came out, this is what they said. I am not very clear about the details. Shan Wu and I failed to get a number. Now the number at the door has been bid up to three taels of silver, and the number on the second floor has been bid up to ten taels of silver."
"Ah..." I was already surprised to hear Shan Qing say three taels of silver, let alone ten taels of silver.
"If I had so much money, why would I go to his place? Why not go directly to Tianxianglou, eat roasted lamb and drink bamboo leaf wine? Isn't that better?" Shanlan said with dissatisfaction.
I originally thought that I could have a nice meal and drink the wine I had always dreamed of at a very cheap price.
However, I didn't expect that I would have to pay several taels of silver just to enter the door. No matter how you calculate it, it's not cost-effective.
"Then, have many people entered in the past two days? Who are they?" When Su Xinqing heard that it was the Jiang family's business, she didn't even have to think about who came up with the idea of such a novel industry.
During this period, Shanqing walked around in the backyard and got to know the new master's preferences and temperament.
Therefore, when inquiring for information, it was all based on Su Xinqing's habits.
Knowing that her mistress was not an ordinary woman, she worked more seriously and diligently, and told her everything she had heard.
"My Lord, I also find it strange. The people who go in to eat are all fine. They are merchants from the surrounding area, stewards from wealthy families who go out to do business, people from outside the city, and young men and women from aristocratic families who are looking for something new. It's all fine, but the people who are ready to sell tickets at the door are the ones that I find strange. At noon, I followed them and found that they all went to the other courtyard of the Jiang family's butler. I guess they are all people hired by the Jiang family."
After hearing Shan Qing say this, Su Xinqing confirmed her guess.
Jiang Xinrou really did use the same marketing tactics that a certain milk tea company used in her previous life.
First hire people to queue up to increase your visibility, and then when the brand effect comes into play, you can recover the money invested in the early stage.
The main idea is to lose money in the beginning but make a lot of money in the end. Now Jiang Xinrou sells the scalper accounts at such a high price, so she will not lose money in the beginning and will still make money in the end.
It seems that Jiang Xinrou has come to terms with it. If she wants to have power, she needs money first without the prince's love.
"Oh my God, Shanqing, as you said, if I want to go in and eat on the first floor, I need to pay three taels of silver for a number fee, and then I need to pay another two hundred coins?" Shanlan said uncertainly, counting on his fingers.
"Yes, that's right!" Shan Qing nodded truthfully.
"On the second floor, there are cakes from Ruifengxiang and Zhuyezui from Tianxianglou. The total cost should be 11 taels of silver?"
Shanqing nodded again.
Shan Lan: “…”
