Chapter 315 Busy
"That's great~" Seeing that King Qiu Shou finally agreed to his suggestion, Zhang Ran couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, then bowed to him with a smile and said, "Since Brother Zi Gan also thinks this method is feasible, then I'll ask Brother Zi Gan for hiring a dance girl!"
"Huh?" King Wuqiu Shou couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this, "Brother Ran, what did you say? Are you planning to hand over the hiring of the dance girl to me?"
"Yes~" Zhang Ran nodded without hesitation, and then replied with a smile: "Brother Zigan, you know, I have just come to Chang'an City for a while, and I have only heard of the dancer's story. I have never seen or contacted it with my own eyes... And I have also heard that although the dancer in the Qi and Zhao land is famous all over the world for her beauty, it is also contaminated with a lot of dust and is not so easy to control! Therefore, I think that Brother Zigan must take the initiative to personally select and check it out!"
"Uh..." Hearing Zhang Ran's words, King Wuqiu Shou's expression slightly stopped. Unexpectedly, after going around like this, Zhang Ran actually threw these troubles into his hands again... This is too scammed!
King Wuqiu Shou wanted to refuse, but when he saw Zhang Ran's sincere expression on his face, he suddenly swallowed his words again... After all, he was short-speaking and soft-working. Zhang Ran had just done him so much. If he didn't even agree to this small request, he would be too conscience!
"Oh~" Therefore, King Wuqiu Shou could only lower his head and sighed slightly, "Okay... It happened that some time ago, I met several wealthy merchants from Handan through my friend's introduction. I think there should be channels for them to find many dancers... Tomorrow, I will go to find someone to ask!"
"The rich merchant in Handan?" Zhang Ran couldn't help but lit up when he heard this. He never expected that King Wuqiu Shou actually knew the rich merchant in Handan.
You should know that since the story of Lu Buwei's "strange goods are available" spread all over the world, the great merchants of the world, especially the rich merchants in Zhao, have followed Lu Buwei and raised a trend of raising beautiful dancers... This trend has lasted for nearly a hundred years. Although the world was a little silent at the end of the Qin Dynasty, it has not stopped!
As the Han Dynasty gradually flourished, this trend emerged again. Even because the Han Dynasty's regime was stable, there were few wars in Zhao, and the population became increasingly prosperous, the scale of the prosperous merchants raising dancers was larger and more professional than before!
Therefore, Zhang Ran felt that as long as King Qiu Shou could contact the wealthy merchants in Handan, there would be 80% chance of hiring a dancer!
"Brother Zigan! You are such a timely rain!"
Thinking of this, Zhang Ran couldn't help but sigh, and then said happily to Wuqiu Shouwang: "I heard that the women in Zhao are graceful and even ordinary people walk very beautifully, so there is a saying of "Learn to walk in Handan"!
It is rumored that among the beauties in the world, Qi women are passionate, Chu women are thin waists, and Zhao women are colorful... Among them, the dancer in Handan is the most outstanding in appearance and the dance posture is the most beautiful!
If we can invite a group of dancers from Handan to perform a song and dance when our restaurant opens... I believe that it will definitely attract a large number of people to watch. At that time, our restaurant name will be resounding throughout Chang'an City in the shortest time!"
"Um~" King Yuqiu Shou frowned slightly when he heard this, and hesitated: "Brother Ran, I have only met the rich merchants from Handan, and I have not had much friendship... Therefore, I cannot guarantee that I can hire many dancers!"
"That's how..." After hearing this, Zhang Ran couldn't help but touch his chin and said with a little regret: "It's such a pity. I originally wanted to see the charm of the dancer in Handan... It seems that the opportunity is not very great!"
"Uh~" King Wuqiu Shou couldn't help but twitch his lips when he heard this, and he sighed with his forehead: "Brother Ran, you have to know that those wealthy merchants spend a lot of money to train dancers. The purpose is not to simply let them perform singing and dancing, but mainly to make friends with powerful people... With our current status, even if we are rich, it is difficult to invite beautiful dancers! It is possible unless the teacher comes forward in person, but... in short, you must be mentally prepared!"
"Oh~" Zhang Ran couldn't help but sigh again when he heard this, but he also knew that King Wuqiu Shou was talking about something, and he knew more that such a thing was really hard to force, so he could only say to King Wuqiu Shou with great regret: "It doesn't matter, if it succeeds, it will be successful, and it doesn't matter if it doesn't. Brother Zi Gan doesn't have to have too much burden, just let it go!"
"Okay!" King Wuqiu Shou nodded slightly and bowed and replied, "Since that's the case, I will try my best!"
"Then I'll have a lot of trouble with Brother Zigan!"
...
After the negotiations on the renovation of the restaurant were made, the few people began to act separately.
In order to break ground as soon as possible, Zhang Meng and his son refused Zhang Ran's attempt to stay. That afternoon, they rushed back to Zhangli to gather people with excitement!
At the same time, King Wuqiu Shou was not idle. After Zhang Meng and his son left, King Wuqiu Shou immediately began to help contact merchants, buy all the building materials needed for the renovation of the wine shop and hire professional architects to guide and improve the renovation plan of the wine shop. At Zhang Ran's request, he also helped arrange residences for everyone in Zhangli's construction team... In short, he was inseparable from him in big and small matters.
Of course, in addition to this, King Wuqiu Shou also has to be responsible for hiring dance girls... But fortunately, this matter is not too urgent for the time being, and it only needs to be done before the opening of the restaurant!
But despite this, it can be predicted that for a long time in the future, King Wuqiu Shou will focus most of his energy on the transformation of the wine shop.
As for Zhang Ran himself, he was not much freezing. Although with the help of King Wuqiu Shou and Zhang Meng and his son, most of the things in the restaurant were basically not needed to be managed by him personally. However, the matter in the workshop garden still involved most of Zhang Ran’s energy.
Moreover, as the designer of the wine shop renovation plan, Zhang Ran could not be the boss without hesitation. At least he had to know the progress of the wine shop renovation.
Therefore, in the next few days, Zhang Ran was also very busy. Not only did he have to go back and forth between the workshop garden and the restaurant, inspect the progress of the restaurant renovation, etc., but he also had to take time to visit the Zhangli people's residence to express his condolences. He even had to return home at night, and seize the time to write bamboo slips for the Art of Destiny... It was not much easier than Wuqiu Shouwang and others.
