After a month of this, Yang Xu, who had spent the initial period of pain, felt a sense of transformation in his body, and the sub-health state of the past no longer existed.

He began to feel happy. He woke up early every day, and if he didn't stretch his muscles and bones, he felt uncomfortable all over. Even the habit of sleeping in was changed unknowingly.

After that, Yang Hongyu began to teach Yang Xu some fist skills in a step-by-step manner, and practiced with a set of internal mental methods.

In Yang Hongyu's words, as long as Yang Xu practices carefully, it is difficult to achieve great success in martial arts in the future, but as long as he does not meet first-class experts, self-protection should be enough.

As for how high a first-class expert’s kung fu is, Yang Xu has no specific concept and does not know.

After asking Yang Hongyu, Yang Hongyu just said that he could barely be among the top experts at the moment.

This shocked Yang Xu.

Being able to rush into the top-notch masters means that you are not a real top-notch master. So as she said, if you really succeed in learning, don’t you have to be afraid of her?

Then, if you say a few dirty jokes in front of her or make a few jokes about her, you don’t have to worry about being beaten by her?

In order to enhance his physical fitness, Yang Xu insisted on running every day.

So every morning, when the sky is dawn, many early people in Jinyang City will see a handsome young man wearing light and strong clothes running through the streets and alleys, sweating profusely.

There are brothels on the banks of the Yishui River. Every time Yang Xu passes here, he will see the beautiful scene of the spring breeze ten miles away and the red sleeves on the building.

They were some brothel women who admired him, waving their handwriting and greeting him while leaning against the window.

Some of the brothel women who greeted Yang Xu recognized Yang Xu, and some who did not recognize him but had heard of his reputation.

The four poems written by Yang Xu for the four courtesans amazed the entire Jinyang City.

Especially the first lyrics of a water tune that was later circulated from Yan Feixue, Yan Xiong, pushed Yang Xu's reputation to an unattainable point in ordinary literati. Some even composed it into a song and sang it, so that all the brothel women of all sizes in Jinyang City knew Yang Xu's name.

In this era, talented men are most popular among brothel women, especially those young and literary women who are similar to those who are literary and artistic, and are more likely to fall in love with scholars.

Therefore, it is normal for Yang Xu to be highly praised and welcomed by brothel women.

Yang Xu thought that he had just copied a few poems, and it was really unexpected that he could become so popular.

If it were placed in his previous world, if he gave a poem to his beloved woman, and hoped to win the favor of the other party, it would be impossible. If he didn't do it well, he would even spit on him.

So Yang Xu is becoming more and more loving for the current era.

When passing by the Yishui River, Yang Xu would also show six white teeth and wave his hand to respond with a smile.

After running for a while in the morning, Yang Xu, who felt good about himself, made two small sandbags weighing ten pounds and tied them to his legs. After exercising with weight, he felt that his body was much lighter, and his reaction ability and agility were greatly improved.

On this day, Yang Xu, who was consciously learning martial arts, shouted at Yang Hongyu with great enthusiasm.

He didn't dare to hope to defeat Yang Hongyu, but just wanted to try whether he could compete with Yang Hongyu.

"People who practice martial arts should proceed step by step, not overly. Your achievements in martial arts are like toddlers, and are far behind those of real martial arts masters."

Yang Hongyu attacked Yang Xu without hesitation.

Yang Xu was not willing to believe it and insisted on a fight with Yang Hongyu, but stated that he would not be allowed to slap in the face.

He is now famous in the literary world and has good looks. If the restaurant business is not good in the future, he might still rely on his face and fame to make a living, so this handsome face was listed as a key target for protection by him.

Yang Hongyu was too lazy to say anything to Yang Xu, and sneered and raised her hands behind her back. The meaning was clearly that even if I didn't use my hands, you wouldn't be able to beat me.

Yang Xu felt that his dignity was provoked and knew that there was no need to be pity for Yang Hongyu, so he threw himself on his teeth and claws, using the fist skills he had learned over the past few days to launch a fierce attack on Yang Hongyu.

Yang Hongyu's body was moving, light and agile, and easily avoided Yang Xu's consecutive attacks.

Yang Xu was almost exhausted, but she didn't even touch Yang Hongyu's corner of her clothes. Instead, she hooked her toes several times and fell to the ground. She fell to death. In the end, she had to hang her head and admit defeat.

Fortunately, Yang Xu is a tougher and stronger person. This failure made him realize the difference between himself and his martial arts masters in this world and become more diligent.

Yang Hongyu saw it and nodded secretly, thinking that when she returned to the village next time, she asked her great-grandfather if there was any way to accelerate the entry of martial arts.

The current Yang Family Restaurant has already been on the right track. As long as it develops step by step according to the plan formulated by Yang Xu, it will be a stable source of wealth, and Yang Xu basically doesn't have to worry about it anymore.

※※※

At night, the Yang Family Restaurant is brightly lit and lively.

The thirty dining tables of large and small dining tables in the first floor lobby were already full, and the guests were all covered in greasy faces, eating and drinking.

While eating and drinking, some guests either listened carefully to the storytellers' stories, or turned their heads to look at the white paper hanging on the walls around the restaurant, frowned and thought hard.

On those white papers, lines of handwriting are written in regular script, which is the "brain teaser" that has been popular in Jinyang City recently.

It is said that this brain teaser was one of the three major shareholders of the Yang Family Restaurant. His talent surpassed all the scholars of Jinyang City.

Many literati from Jinyang City have carefully studied this brain teaser and have gained some experience.

They know that brain teasers test people's urgent wisdom. If you want to answer questions correctly, you must not think according to common sense.

In their opinion, this is a brand new form of entertainment. Some brain teasers answers make people laugh and laugh, which is more interesting than guessing riddles during the Moon Festival.

The corresponding guests belong to different classes of the three floors of the Yang Family Restaurant.

The first floor is more popular than the public and has relatively low consumption. Most of the guests who eat and drink here are well-off families with a little spare money.

The second floor of the wine and food is more elegant and refined, but the consumption is at least twice as high. Each table is separated by a screen. Most of the guests who eat and drink here are rich or well-known figures in Jinyang City.

The consumption on the third floor is at least twice that on the second floor. The guests who can afford it here are almost all wealthy and powerful celebrities in Jinyang City.

Although the opening time of Yangjia Restaurant is short, it has become a signboard in the catering industry in Jinyang City. Many customers are proud to be able to eat and drink here.

Especially for customers who have consumed on the second and third floors, when facing relatives and friends, they invisibly feel a sense of psychological superiority and capital to show off.

The brain teasers on the first floor and the couplet puzzles on the second floor are benefits specially introduced by the Yang Family Restaurant for guests who are short of money but want to enjoy delicious food on a higher floor.

Guests who can correctly answer brain teasers will be invited to the second floor. The cost of food and drink is only the price on the first floor.

For example, if you spend ten taels on the second floor, you only need to pay three or five taels of silver.

And those who answered couplets on the second floor and guessed the puzzle correctly went to the VIP private room on the third floor to eat and drink, the same is true.

When Yang Family Restaurant does this, it seems like it is a loss, but in fact it is just a little less profitable.
