As everyone knows, there are several places in Kyoto that are favorite places for the dignitaries to visit, and those idle people are collectively called manors and pavilions.

After the Xu family was confiscated and Princess Lu committed suicide, Qibao Pavilion existed in name only. Although the other shareholders did not know what Xu Song had done, the reputation of Qibao Pavilion was already bad, and they had to change their appearance and start a new business.

Xiangyun Hao took advantage of this opportunity to grow wildly. Even after Pei Yue returned to Beijing, he cut off the complicated cargo of Xiangyun Hao and only retained three types: briquettes, grain and cloth. It was still one of the top big business houses in the capital and even in the entire Liang.

Liyuan is famous for its Qing huts, its bamboo house has the best wines from all over the world, and the last one, Xianyunzhuang, is the only place outside the city.

Xianyunzhuang is located more than 20 miles south of Kyoto. It has beautiful mountains and rivers and beautiful scenery. Kyoto literati and poets often gather here. The outing poetry meeting every spring is a grand event in Daliang literary circles. Many poets and literary scholars will attend the meeting every year.

A large number of good articles and lines appeared, and there was no shortage of young talents who wanted to make a splash and shine in poetry festivals.

In addition to manors and pavilions, there are many other recreational places in the city, but they are slightly less famous.

Ye Qi suddenly mentioned Zhulou, naturally because she subconsciously did not believe that Pei Yue would make a small fuss. Even if he just wanted to open a restaurant, he would target the top wine shop in the city.

Pei Yue smiled and asked: "Why is it a bamboo building?"

Ye Qi muttered: "Qibao Pavilion has fallen. Although Xiangyun Hao cannot be regarded as replacing it, it has actually occupied a large share in the city. You must not be interested in the kind of business in Liyuan. I have known you for so long, except in

What happened in Lingzhou happened for a reason

, I have never seen you take the initiative to go to a brothel to paint a boat. Xianyun Village is mainly engaged in the business of literati. Now those literati Qingliu may have a lot of opinions on you, so they will not take action in this direction. After thinking about it, you

I definitely still want to bring down the Bamboo Tower."

Pei Yue thought for a while and said, "It makes sense."

Ye Qi knew him very well and knew that he had guessed wrong as soon as he heard it.

Pei Yue did not give an answer immediately, but took everyone to another corner, where they saw a huge water tank with many basins of different sizes next to it.

"I'll do a trick for you."

Pei Yue smiled softly, and then took out a large basin and asked Deng Zai to scoop water from the water tank into the basin. After the water level reached about half, he took a small basin and placed it in the big basin, and continued to let Deng Zai.

Pour water into the small basin.

Then Pei Yue walked to the wall, opened a well-sealed earthenware jar, took out a few stones, and put them into a large basin of water.

Ye Qi watched intently. As time passed little by little, the water in the big basin began to boil, and the water in the small basin gradually condensed.

Suddenly there was a hint of coolness in the air.

Deng Zai and Wang Yong were stunned, watching helplessly as the cold water in the small basin turned into ice cubes.

Even though Ye Qi was determined and determined, he couldn't help but murmur at this moment: "It's so magical."

Pei Yue said calmly: "This is the method of making ice recorded in ancient books. This stone is called saltpeter. Of course, it has many other functions. I will tell you later. Back to the previous question, Deng Zai said

It’s not wrong, I do plan to open a restaurant, but this restaurant is different from what you imagined.”

His expression was calm and calm, but his eyes were very sharp, and he continued: "Whether it is Liyuan or Bamboo House, even Xianyun Village where literati often go, they all have their own characteristics, but they all seem too single.

.I want to do more than just a restaurant

, good wine and delicious food are just the first attraction to attract guests, and there are many unique ways to spend time later. Just like the ancient ice making technique you see, when summer comes, there will be no entertainment place in the city that can

Like ours, guests can feel like they are in an ice palace."

Ye Qi said with emotion: "You are thoughtful for those dignitaries."

Pei Yue happily accepted her eye roll and said with a smile: "If you want to take money out of people's pockets, you must take good service measures."

Ye Qi asked again: "What else?"

Pei Yue said: "In this place I created, the food and wine are not surprising. In summer, guests can enjoy all kinds of iced drinks. In winter, they can taste the freshest vegetables, and they can also enjoy the warmth of spring-like heating throughout the room."

.In addition, there are all kinds of novel gameplay and interesting programs that they have never seen before, which are guaranteed to keep these wealthy people lingering and obediently taking out the banknotes in their wallets."

Deng Zai listened with excitement, but he knew his responsibilities, so he could still maintain a calm appearance. Wang Yong was excited and worried, and said cautiously: "Master, I can't handle such a big thing."

Pei Yue said gently: "You only need to build the winery, and then manage the business and the mine. I will not put this business under the name of the business, but set up a new store separately."

Wang Yong breathed a sigh of relief and replied: "This is great."

Ye Qi asked curiously: "Do you want to do this yourself?"

Pei Yue looked at her with a smile, and this look made Ye Qi feel a little scared.

She asked in disbelief: "Me?"

Pei Yue nodded and said seriously: "It must be you."

Ye Qi shook his head and said: "Pei Yue, don't mess around."

Pei Yue coughed twice and said to Deng Zai and Wang Yong: "You go out first and guard outside the door."

"Yes, Master."

After the two of them went out, Ye Qi said in embarrassment: "Pei Yue, I really can't do it."

It's okay to let her kill people, but Ye Qi is very aware of her own abilities in running such an obviously huge business. This is not her area of ​​expertise at all.

Pei Yue stepped forward and took her hand, smiled and said: "Don't be anxious first, listen to me explain the whole framework."

"you say."

"This is not just a restaurant, but a manor that encompasses many of my ideas. To put it simply, I will open this manor in every big city in Daliang. It will not only bring me countless money, but also raise money.

I have played a very important role, which is to establish my own information channel. The men led by Qi Min and Yang Hu will become the guards of the manor, and they can glean a lot of useful information from the dignitaries who come to the manor every day."

"But……"

"Ye Qi, the only strength I can rely on now is the Zangfengwei. This is not enough. I must establish a strong and close bond of interests and let more powerful people become members of my ship."

"You want other people involved?"

"Yes, I will select some rich and powerful mansions and let them get the shares of this manor. With the precedent of Xiangyun Hao, no one can resist the temptation of sitting at home and collecting money. As long as they are used to it.

If I gain benefits here, they will be unable to do without me in the future. As long as I am not plotting rebellion, they will definitely support me on various occasions."

Ye Qi looked at Pei Yue intently, his heart racing for a moment.

Pei Yue smiled and said: "Xiangyunhao took the initiative to shrink the scope of business, including the fact that I handed over the recipe for briquettes before, which is why I took the initiative to express my feelings to the emperor. Because this person was too suspicious, I had to do this. The profit of briquettes

In fact, it has been fixed. It is impossible for me to kick Sun Qi and the others out. If I want to win more people to stand by my side, I must have a brand new method of profit-making."

Ye Qi sighed: "But I can't do these things."

Pei Yue held her hand and said: "I will not let those powerful people participate in the specific management. This is to prevent them from poaching. After all, the idea of ​​this manor contains a lot of my creativity. You don't have to worry about not being able to do it.

The operation will naturally be managed by professional talents. You only need to control the account details and control Qi Min and Yang Hu at the same time, and you are done. In addition, I will find a real business genius to help you."

Ye Qi was stunned for a moment, looked at Pei Yue with strange eyes, and said slowly: "You don't want to..."

Pei Yue interrupted her and said, "No one is more suitable than Chen Xizhi."

Ye Qi said with difficulty: "Can you trust her?"

Pei Yue said calmly: "Of course I don't trust her, but that doesn't matter. I have thought about how to deal with Chen Xizhi. After repeated thinking, it is most appropriate to let her stay with you. The more we do on this issue, the more mistakes we will make."

, the less you do, the safer it is. In fact, this does not mean leaving the affairs of the manor to her. Even if she changes her name, she can only stay behind the scenes. What I mean is to ask her to help you with the details, so that at least you will not be idle all day.

He panicked and then started plotting against us."

Ye Qi thought about it and hesitated: "Can I ask her what she thinks?"

Pei Yue nodded and said: "It should be so, but even if she doesn't want to, it actually won't have any impact. I just hope that you can help me control the overall situation. Of course, there will be someone dedicated to handle the details."
