After the examination and the head of the government, Bai Gui could clearly feel that Liu Mingda and Wu Huaixian, who were sleeping in the Normal School, were much more enthusiastic about him than usual.

He always keeps his servings on his daily basis.

Relationships are growing.

This is also normal. Qin Province is the most prosperous provincial capital. The case leader in Zhongfucheng is almost equivalent to the case leader who has booked the examination, as long as the luck is not bad. Although the examination is the next level promotion examination in the examination of the provincial capital, the children who pass the examination of the other governments may not be better than the candidates who fail the examination of the provincial capital, and the gap in educational resources is very obvious.

It is also reasonable to stand out among so many candidates and make friends...

Besides, Bai Gui is not a person who is arrogant and inhumane.

On this day, Wu Huaixian took leave and came back to the school, and handed a gold-plated invitation to Bai Gui.

He scratched his head embarrassedly, "This is the cultural salon held by my family recently. My mother invited some celebrities and gentry from Qin Province, ladies and ladies, and some foreigners, such as Nichols, a reporter from the New York newspaper of Ameikan, and Dun Chongli, a missionary from the English country. Oh, he is about to serve as the chief instructor of Tangxizhai, Shanxi University Hall, etc...."

"In the severe drought in the past few years, these foreigners also invested money to boost their money and donated 60,000 US dollars, which is equivalent to nearly 90,000 taels of silver..."

"So Brother Bai doesn't need to mind these foreigners."

Wu Huaixian said that not only foreigners are anti-Chinese, but Chinese are also anti-Japanese, so some things still need to be explained in advance.

"Thank you, Brother Huaixian."

After hearing this, Bai Gui thanked him and then accepted the gold-plated invitation. This was the invitation given to him by Zhou Ying, the richest woman in Qin Province. It was not only an invitation, but also a value for him.

After management, some of the people I met in the cultural salon were their connections.

Salon is the transliteration of the French Salon, which originally refers to the luxurious living room of the upper-level figures in France. Since the 17th century, some celebrities in Paris have been mostly famous ladies and ladies, and often turn the living room into a social place. Most of the people in and out are dramatists, novelists, poets, musicians, etc., who sip drinks while enjoying music and considering the issues of interest, gradually became popular in the cultural circles of Europe and the United States.

In the late Qing Dynasty, the custom of cultural salons was also spread to the Qing Dynasty.

The cultural salon is held seven days later, and the location is in the living room of Wu Mansion.

Wu Huaixian also asked him to prepare a suit in advance.

You don’t have to wear suits when attending a cultural salon, but most people wear it. If you don’t wear it, it will look a little different.

It is unlikely to let others look at each other, and most people will think that it is disrespectful to their owners. Everyone wears it, but you don’t. This is too unconventional.

Having strength is called irrefined.

If you don’t have strength, it’s called sloppy.

Bai Gui was preparing to withdraw twenty taels of silver from the Hulu Chicken Store. He had been studying in the normal school for a while, preparing for exams, and giving gifts. The money he had exchanged was already spent. If he couldn't sleep with him, he would not invite you back to eat. The money was spent a lot of money. He originally wanted to go to the pawn shop to exchange for some money, but when he thought that he had done business, he got a part of the profit.

The transaction of gourd chicken has been steadily recently, and the customer flow is slightly reduced compared to when opening a store before. This is extremely normal. The store is opened because of discount activities. In addition, the novelty of white pheasants is full of people, and novelty cannot be eaten as food. It is considered successful if it can stabilize half of the customer flow.

It is easy to withdraw money and food.

The people who manage the gourd chicken business in the provincial capital are Lu Zilin and Zhou Yuan’s father Zhou Hongfu. As for Bai Jiaxuan, he is the clan leader, and he needs to be in charge of the villagers in Bailu Village and have no time to clone them, but some major issues must be decided together.

Bai Gui did not rush to get involved in his father Bai Youde. Where did his father get the business mind? As long as he doesn't fail, the Bai family, the Lu family, and the Zhou family dare not covet his shares and money...

He can give it and take it back.

"The invitation from the Wu family..., is the precious baby promising now?" A hint of envy flashed in Lu Zilin's eyes. The most brilliant person in his family was just the rich man in the countryside, so how could he climb the high branches of the Wu family?

Zhou Ying was the adopted daughter of the Queen Mother Citizen. Even if the Queen Mother Citizen dies now, she is also the first-class lady of the imperial decree in the court!

The Lu family is not worthy of carrying shoes to the Wu family!

"Give it, Guiwazi, this shop is your business, so we're just helping with it..."

"Look at what my uncle said, these are all family products of our family."

Lu Zilin gave the money very happily and withdrew fifty taels of silver.

The gourd chicken has only been sold for more than a month. Including the money from opening a store for the villagers, this has not been paid back. People who do catering are like this. They can only make money after working for a few months, and the rest is the profit...

But fifty taels are a drop in the bucket for the gourd chicken shop, and it is not a big money. As long as it is well operated, this little money will not lead to any adverse consequences.

After withdrawing money, Bai Gui went to the western clothing shop.

Customized suits are not cheap, and a suit of medium material requires eighteen silver dollars.

As for suits made of high-quality materials, they are even more expensive, generally above 30 silver dollars.

The handwork fee is also quite valuable. Two silver dollars are customized at a time, and there is no bargaining price. At this time, there are not many people wearing suits in Qin Province. Most of them have a long robe, so the western clothing shop also adheres to the idea of ​​"not opening for ten years, but eating for ten years". Although this suit-like tailor shop can also be made, it is fine to wear it occasionally, but it would be a bit embarrassing to really go to Wu's house.

If you go to the south, you will probably be cheaper in this customized suit...

"Sir, I learned the skills in the Shanghai market, which is worth this price. Many foreigners are custom-made suits in my case. Look at this material, but the best pure wool worsted fabric specially imported from England..."

Seeing the boy in front of him hesitated, the tailor of the Western Clothes Shop said slowly.

The fabric is not cheap, so it is very clear that it is expensive. Ordinary and fashionable silk clothes require a lot of silver to base them, let alone this suit. He stepped forward and touched them. Although he didn't know if it was the fabric mentioned by the tailor, he knew that the fabric was good once he touched them.

Bai Gui customized two sets, one silver dollar was cheaper, and spent thirty-five silver dollars.

Because the business of the western clothing shop is bleak, I didn’t mention emergency processing and it will be available in five days.

Seven days later.

The three-horse carriage stopped beside the normal school, and did not stop at the main entrance, but leaned against the corner of the academy's alley.

The three people who were sleeping together also walked out with a smile.

All the suits made others look at each other.

At this time, the suits were a bit different from those in later generations. They were larger than the standard specifications. They looked a little fat and not as slim as in later generations. They were not boxer pants. The suits in later Hong Kong film and television dramas were somewhat similar to them.
