When Shopkeeper Liu saw this cornucopia, he no longer felt embarrassed. He felt that he might have gone to the wrong place. Which wealthy family's birthday banquet or wedding was this?
He has been a shopkeeper in Ping'an City for 20 years and has never seen such generous opening gifts.
Sister Dan poked Mr. Zhou next to her with her elbow, "Miss Gu is not simple. Didn't you say that her family just escaped from famine? How did she get to know these rich people?"
Mr. Zhou didn't understand either. When she met Gu Fei once, she was still dressed like a country girl. Why did she suddenly become so successful?
Old Man Huang stood far away. He had packed up neatly today, changed into clean clothes, and his usually messy gray hair was neatly combed. He glanced at the cornucopia, and then at the stone, with a slight smile on his lips. Curl upward.
At this moment, two beggars wearing white robes came over.
One held a broken bowl in his hand, and the other held a pot of delicate crabapples.
The two of them stood at the door, and the one with the broken bowl shouted, "The Eight Immortals will congratulate you on the opening of the inn!"
Gu Fei was startled for a moment, she, she still has a relationship with the beggar?
Why didn't she know?
Seeing that she was stunned, Sister Dan quickly pulled her aside and whispered: "The Eight Immortals Association is the beggar's gang in Ping'an City. They will be there no matter where there is a wedding or wedding."
"They got it for you. If you don't reciprocate the gift, they will come to your store every day to make trouble."
Gu Fei looked at the begonia in his hand and took a breath, "How much reciprocation is appropriate?"
Sister Dan ? He held out a finger and said, "One tael of silver."
"From now on, someone will come to collect money every month. The merchants on this street will give two hundred yuan a month. After giving the money, those beggars will not Enter your store."
Gu Fei nodded, understanding, this is for protection money.
Not counting the protection fee, they don't protect you, they only promise not to cause trouble.
As long as you still want to do business, you have to give the money whether you give it or not.
Otherwise, if a beggar enters the store, the business will be ruined.
She took out a small piece of broken silver from her arms, walked over to the beggar holding the broken bowl, put the silver in, gave a gift, and said with a smile: "Thank you brothers from the Eight Immortals Society for coming to support me."
The beggar saw it . There was silver in the bowl, and with a smile and a wave of his hand, the beggar next to him put down the begonia flowers, and the two of them bowed their hands and left.
Gu Zhang shouted at this time, "Xiao Fei, the auspicious time has come."
Sanlang hurriedly lit the firecrackers. Gu Fei took a deep breath, walked under the plaque, pulled the red rope, and the red silk covering it fell down.
The four golden copper characters "You Jian Inn" on the plaque were revealed.
There were congratulations all around, it was considered an opening.
Mr. Zhou stared at the plaque for a long time, clasped his hands and said with a smile: "This is a good name."
"It seems a bit vulgar at first glance, but vulgarity means elegance. The best thing is that the name is easy to remember!"
Memorability means it means The writing spreads easily by word of mouth.
Gu Fei smiled. The name was plagiarized. It was from a classic work by a certain king of comedy. Using it was also a tribute to the master.
Sister Dan pursed her lips and smiled, thinking about this name, this girl Xiao Fei must be an interesting person.
Gu Zhang greeted everyone to come in. When everyone entered, they saw that there were various green plants in the store, some as tall as a person, and some small and exquisite. They were all planted in white porcelain pots. The white color was mixed with green, which was refreshing and refreshing. Full of life.
