book of old days

Chapter 145 Theme Restaurant
Now it was the turn of the fat boss to be surprised.

"You're not kidding."

"Do I look like I'm joking?"

"You're crazy!" Agatha dragged Sean aside, "What happened to you and Ragnar? How could you get this money?"

"Ragnar didn't tell you?"

"He didn't say it, he just said it was good luck."

Sean thought that Ragnar's tone was strict enough, "I'm afraid you won't believe this matter, but believe me, the money is definitely not a problem for me, but you, are you interested in working for me?" , I can give you 10% of the stock."

In fact, Sean didn't really care about money. He made a fortune in Syndora's temple, and ordinary small money was completely ignored.

What he cares most about now is to develop the power of faith, enhance his own strength, and also leave a retreat for himself in the north.

The area of ​​this two-storey small building is quite considerable, and the location is located in the center of Norem. It is also a good choice to keep it and slowly appreciate in value. Use it for investment.

"Do I have any other choice?" Agatha gave him a reproachful look, "But I want to remind you, I originally only planned to open a small restaurant, and I may not be able to manage such a large restaurant well. , and there is no business clue.”

Sean smiled, "Don't worry, I've already thought about the business strategy, you just need to follow my plan."

Sean is also a time traveler after all. He has been exposed to various business operation models in his previous life, especially marketing. The modern business society can really play tricks. Compared with what he has seen before, the business operation of this era is simply amazing. Just like honest people.

Sean’s plan is very simple. First, he will put out the brand name, and then gradually start a chain restaurant. In the future, he will strive to open a branch in every big city, so that his name can be spread to the ears of every Brightonian. Since it is a chain restaurant , the standardization of dishes is very important.

In addition, he plans to take the high-end route. Although he mainly focuses on harvesting beliefs, making money is the key to sustainable long-term operation. He must not lose money in the operation.

He is still very confident about making money, and has prepared a plan to attract traffic.

Opening big rewards, membership system, recharge 500 to get 50 free, all kinds of routines are organized for him, Sean doesn't even have to do it too hard, just using two tricks is enough to make the guests of this era unable to find their way. .

Of course, the traditional method of expanding customer sources must also be used, after all, it cannot be separated from the background of the times.

In this era, there are not so many means of advertising. If you want to do business with the upper class, connections and fame are very important, and if you want people to know, the most common way is to hold a party such as a dance party, a reception, or a dinner party. The local celebrity society elite participate.

When Sean was in Sword Castle, he had received many similar invitations. Sean had attended similar gatherings in opera houses, grand theaters, bars and salons.

Since it is a restaurant, a banquet is more suitable. Generally, when holding a banquet, you will find a local bigwig to come forward to invite it. Xiao En is a university professor in the district, and the name of a well-known writer is not enough. Fortunately, he has As a member of the Society of Rationality, he should be able to gain some popularity.

At that time, we will hold an on-site event, recharge on the first day to get points, draw prizes on the first day, etc., and make the atmosphere up, so the popularity will increase.

When Sean revealed some of his business operation plans to Agatha, Agatha opened her mouth in surprise. The business elites of this era still don’t understand these advanced marketing methods, let alone just came from Nori. A woman who walked out of this remote town in Fussen.

"Then when will we start holding this banquet?"

"Don't worry. Before that, we have to finish the decoration first. Since we need to decorate, it is not suitable to rent a house. Luxurious decoration will cost a lot of money. If the landlord sees that our business is good, we will break the contract and refuse to rent. What should I do?"

Agatha couldn't believe it, "Can you still do this?"

"That's not possible, so let's buy it."

Sean said, turning around and walking back to the fat man.

He didn't talk nonsense, and directly took out the manuscript fee for the one thousand gold list that Henry had given him from his pocket.

"Here is a money order of 1000 gold pounds, which is my deposit. Let's sign the contract first, and the rest of the money will be given to you when the land deed is transferred."

Fatty was also very happy to see that a deal was made so easily.

The transaction contract was signed very happily, and the transaction was initially confirmed.

The two agreed to conduct justice in three days and complete the transaction.

Sean took Agatha and left.

Next, Sean was going to sell some of the gold in exchange for funds.

The first thing he sold were the ancient gold coins.

Strictly speaking, these gold coins are still currency in circulation, but their real value is far higher than the value of their own gold.

Many old aristocrats in this era still maintained a decent life. At the same time, the rise of the bourgeoisie led a large number of upstarts to seek superiority in status, style, and family background.

Therefore, many aristocratic families, businessmen and rich people like to collect some antiques to show their taste and heritage.

Therefore, this kind of coins and gold and silver utensils with obvious classical style have more or less commercial premiums.

Sean ran to a nearby gold store and sold more than 200 ancient gold coins, a set of gold tableware, some gold candlesticks, gold sculptures, etc., about one-third of the treasures, and got a total of [-] Bills of exchange in gold pounds.

This kind of money order is in a denomination of one hundred gold pounds, and can be exchanged for cash directly at the bank. It is a commonly used substitute currency for large transactions, somewhat similar to ancient silver bills.

Under normal circumstances, it would be troublesome for ordinary people to spend such a large amount of gold, but with the status of a member of the Society of Rationality, it is naturally not a big deal.

Next, Sean took Agatha to buy clothes.

In any era, people have the habit of judging their status based on their clothing. This era is no exception, and it is even more serious. The clothing on your body often directly determines people's attitude towards you. At the same time The style of clothing also represents social status to a certain extent.

The outfit that Sean ordered before was ready, and he went to buy some accessories, and bought everything that should be bought.

He changed his outfit all over his body, and when he stood in front of the mirror again, Sean almost changed himself.

Since leaving Sword Castle, it was the first time that he was dressed so decently.

Wearing a half-top silk top hat, a gold pocket watch on the chest, a white handkerchief, a white shirt, a black dress with gilded buttons, white sleeve knots, black dress trousers, leather shoes, and a walnut cane inlaid with gold.

Looks like a gentleman.

Then Sean also prepared to buy an outfit for Agatha.

When the two arrived at the tailor shop, Agatha first picked out a fashionable lady's attire. When Agatha finished changing and came out, Sean couldn't help but look at Agatha's appearance.

Agatha is a typical wild beauty, with a fit body, straight chest and long legs. If she puts on a military uniform, she will definitely be as handsome as a cosplay ancient Nord female warrior.

But wearing such a ladylike attire seems a bit nondescript.

Agatha herself was also very uncomfortable, she was almost out of breath because of the tightness of her corset, and the long skirt tripped her legs when she walked, and the light and fluffy silk dress always felt like she was not wearing any clothes.

This is a bit difficult to handle.

Sean walked around Agatha twice, looking at Agatha in embarrassment.

"Why don't I wear the original one." Agatha said a little discouraged.

Xiao En shook his head. It turned out that that suit was absolutely unsuitable, it was too rustic, and even if he went to be a waiter, it would be a bit of a drop in price.

"Do you believe me?" He asked suddenly.

Agatha nodded, "Of course."

"Then let me design a suit for you."

Agatha was a little surprised: "You can also tailor?"

"Understood."

In fact, Sean didn't know anything about tailoring, but as long as he saw a lot of clothes, he still had the ability to taste them.

He directly picked up the paintbrush and drew a picture of the appearance on the paper.

Then he said to the tailor, "Just make it according to this body."

The tailor also stared blankly.

"Sir, are you sure? Such a suit is really..."

"Don't worry, you just have to do it. This effect is what you want. Money is not a problem. The important thing is that time must be available."

It took a full three days and four tailors were found to work overtime, and finally the clothes were made.

High-heeled leather boots, the skirt is made of leather, with a bit of armor style, high slits, in order to avoid being exposed, women's breeches are worn underneath, the belt is also metal style, the belt buckle is gold-plated, and the upper body is tight The breastplate-shaped design is also gold-plated and aged. The open-chested style reveals the career line, which looks conservative and open.

A shoulder armor-like design was added to the left shoulder, also gold-plated, with a metal chain buckled obliquely to the waist.

A large number of Nord rune-style decorative patterns are added to the skirt, which looks quaint and has a mysterious charm. The overall style is like a Nord version of Wonder Woman, but it is relatively conservative for keeping warm.

The hairstyle also needs to be rearranged. Since you want to follow the Valkyrie style, you should go all the way to the end. Xiao En asked someone to braid Agatha's wild braids. Finally, he found it from his treasure collection. A golden eagle-shaped headdress was placed on her head.

It looks like a Valkyrie who has stepped onto the battlefield.

"Is it really okay?" Agatha looked at herself in the mirror and her eyes widened in shock.

Let alone this look, even in Nordforsen, she would definitely be embarrassed to wear it out, but it looks really good.

"What are you afraid of? Only mediocre people tremble at the eyes of others. A true brave man must learn to show his charm. This suit is just right for you."

Sean looked around and felt that something was missing.

That's right—he took out a saber from his pocket and hung it around Agatha's waist, and it all worked.

"Are we going to war?"

"You don't understand. A shopping mall is like a battlefield, but isn't it similar to fighting a war?"

Anyway, his purpose is to attract attention, even if it is shocking, it doesn’t matter, besides, the Nords are the kind of informal temperament, if this outfit is placed in Brighton, it may appear shocking, but in Nords, it should be It didn't matter much - it wasn't him wearing them anyway.

Most importantly, the outfit fits perfectly with the theme of his restaurant.

Sean doesn't intend to open an ordinary large restaurant.

If he wanted to collect the power of faith, he had to create a sense of ritual.

So he decided to renovate the restaurant according to the hall he saw in the Temple of the Gods. He had already thought of the name of the restaurant, and it was called 'Eternal Feast'.

The waiters inside are all in the shape of Valkyrie, with tight breastplate, high-waisted leather boots, and big white legs, which will definitely be popular.

Originally, he didn't dare to be so high-profile, but since he discovered the great usefulness of members of the Society of Rationality, Sean has no more scruples.
