my awesome king

Chapter 13

When shopkeeper Yan hurried over, he saw his princess glaring at him furiously. He hurriedly said respectfully, "I have seen the princess. I don't know why the princess is so angry?"

"Give him to me, quickly!" Mu Shuiqing's eyes narrowed, pointing at the little second and arrogantly said, "As a little second, what's the use of being so disrespectful and rude to guests, without rules!"

This little second, Mo Qing, is Steward Mo's nephew. When shopkeeper Yan and Steward Mo had a nest of snakes and rats, Steward Mo asked him to find a job for his own nephew.But this nephew was spoiled and spoiled since he was a child, and he was not good at making tea and washing dishes. Shopkeeper Yan asked him to be a sophomore, and Mo Qing was idle all day long, eating and drinking, asking for money. A few days ago, shopkeeper Yan just fired him. over him.However, due to the recent resignations of other employees, the restaurant was short of manpower, and Butler Mo urged him everywhere, so he had no choice but to rehire him.

"If you hadn't begged me so hard, would I have come back to do it? It's just a dilapidated tea house, I don't care about it!" Mo kicked a table and chair lightly, and left angrily, "See how your shop opens without Xiaoer! "

Seeing Shopkeeper Yan frowning into a line, Mu Shuiqing looked around suspiciously, and asked, "What's going on? Why aren't there any other mistresses?"

"To tell you the truth, the location of the teahouse used to be very good, and the business was booming, but since the Yixianlou opened across the street, all the business has been robbed, and even the staff have been robbed..." Seeing shopkeeper Yan crying about his bad luck , when it was all the fault of Yixianlou opposite, Mu Shuiqing frowned, didn't he realize the many mistakes he made?

In this tea house, there is no new decoration and store name, and the waiter with a lazy service attitude is extremely bad, and all the teas that can be seen everywhere are lined up.No wonder such a tea house can make money!Of course, the business will be pulled away by the other side.Mu Shuiqing took a sip of tea and sighed ten times. Even the taste was so ordinary and bland that people would forget it after drinking it.

Such a bad teahouse is not closed down, it is God's mercy!

Since you want to make money, you must get rid of all these shortcomings!

She wants to transform!She wants to turn this dilapidated tea house that is about to close down into the best tea in the capital!
"Treasurer Yan." Mu Shuiqing smiled charmingly, "Now you are in competition with other shopkeepers, but given that the teahouse is empty, you must be at the bottom this month. Are you willing?" She stretched out Holding a finger, he tempted, "The 100 taels of silver as a reward will fall into other hands. I thought the business of the teahouse was the best, and I came to you first to have a look if you could secure the 100 taels of silver..."

100 taels... Shopkeeper Yan swallowed his saliva and said, "No, no, the little one will definitely work hard."

"But it can't be like this now." Mu Shuiqing pretended to shake his head with emotion, "I had some good ideas at first, but I can't be partial... I can't say I can't say..."

"Princess." Seeing Mu Shuiqing shaking his head and wanting to leave, shopkeeper Yan hurriedly stopped Mu Shuiqing and said respectfully, "Princess, if you have any good ideas, feel free to tell me, as long as the teahouse can be brought back to life, Yan will be at your service."

Seeing that the fish had taken the bait, Mu Shuiqing looked back and smiled: "Listen to me?"

"Well, it's all up to the princess!" Shopkeeper Yan nodded like a chicken pecking rice, completely unaware that he had fallen into Mu Shuiqing's trap.

Mu Shuiqing smiled sweetly, and pointed at the teahouse with plain hands: "The name is vulgar, change it. The tea is tasteless, change it. The decoration is simple, redecorate it! And these, these, these are all changed for my princess! In addition, hire a few The nimble little two!"

"What!" Shopkeeper Yan's eyes almost popped out.He trembled his lips and said, "Princess, this is not a joke..."

"Don't you let me order you!" Mu Shuiqing roared imposingly, "Don't worry, follow the princess and make money!"

Shopkeeper Yan said with a bitter face: "But Wangfei, we don't have that much money to reform and hire people..."

At night, when Mu Shuiqing was massaging Ji Xiaomo's feet, she flattered and said, "My lord, can you subsidize my concubine with 1000 taels of silver?" Mu Shuiqing felt that he looked good, so he specially practiced various beauty tricks in front of the mirror The required pose and smile, as long as Ji Xiaomo is a normal man, he will never refuse the entreaties of a beautiful woman, and even her own princess!
But she overestimated her own beauty, and her winking was very funny in Ji Xiaomo's eyes.

He raised his eyebrows and said, "Why does the princess want so much money?" After getting along for many days, Ji Xiaomo finally got used to Mu Shuiqing touching him from time to time, avoiding embarrassment and discomfort.

Mu Shuiqing pursed his lips, and his clear eyes flickered: "I want to buy the big courtyard next to the teahouse, because it's in a bustling area, so it's more expensive. I've been trying hard for a long time before he agreed to buy it for 500 yuan." Transfer the two to me. My lord, are you okay..." She groaned, and deliberately pulled her clothes down to reveal her white and attractive collarbone, and then leaned close to Ji Xiaomo.

Beauty tricks are not in vain!Anyway, it's not my own body, so what I eat is not my own tofu!
Ji Xiaomo moved his eyes away, and his momentum softened significantly: "Then what about the other 500 taels?"

Mu Shuiqing hooked his neck, and blew on his earlobe: "I want to use the other 500 taels to renovate the teahouse and recruit some new staff. I went to see it today. The decoration is old-fashioned, and there is no tea. Xinyi, the former clerks all resigned due to the meager salary, and many of them jumped to the Yixian Building next door. I want to completely renovate and improve the benefits of the clerks, so that we can recruit new talents...My lord, what do you think? okay~"

Regarding the Yixian Building opened three months ago, Mu Shuiqing lurked inside on purpose, and found that it was overcrowded and the business was booming, which was completely different from their teahouse.

Mu Shuiqing saw that Ji Xiaomo was not tempted by the beauty, but instead pushed her far away, shook her head in disapproval, with a stingy expression on her face, annoyed, she deliberately used the provocative method: " My lord! If the teahouse cannot continue to open, it will be a matter of the lord's face! Everyone knows that the teahouse is under the name of the lord, but the owner of the Yixian Building is actually open opposite the lord, stealing away the guests and staff of the lord. The bullying is too much, and you want to fight against the prince! So!" She clenched her fists angrily, and the fire in her eyes welled up, "We should show Yixianlou a little color, and let them know that the prince is not easy to mess with!"

Ji Xiaomo frowned in confusion: "How can the princess say such vulgar words..."

In an instant, Mu Shuiqing quickly withdrew his anger and put on a fake smile: "So the prince...the concubine is always thinking about you... If the prince is afraid that the concubine will waste the money and throws the money into the water, then The lord first listen to the concubine's plan to renovate the teahouse, and then make a decision."

Without waiting for Ji Xiaomo to nod, Mu Shuiqing immediately said: "After buying the big courtyard next door, I want to open it up. There are more than 500 square meters in total, and then I will set up the teahouse as an indoor courtyard." When talking about himself Mu Shuiqing's eyebrows danced for a moment, his whole face was filled with a special aura under the light of the candlelight, and he was a little flushed because of his excitement.She gestured nervously, forgetting the courtesy she should have in front of Ji Xiaomo.

"Combining the requirements of tea art and tea tasting environment, there are pavilions, pavilions, winding paths and flowers, arches and corridors, small bridges and flowing water, etc., giving people a feeling of 'how deep is the courtyard'."

"In addition to the open hall, there are also various styles of private rooms. The private rooms are built according to the situation combined with the structure of the house, each with its own characteristics, and guests can make choices according to their interests. Some are near small bridges and flowing water, making people calm in nature Among them, the taste is natural and relaxing; some are elegant, simple, and elegant, which are the first choice for literati to recite poems and paint; The rooms can best satisfy their vanity. In terms of interior decoration, celebrity calligraphy and paintings, antiques, flowers, birds, fish and insects, etc. have their own emphasis, and naturally fit with the style of each elegant room, forming a corresponding tea ceremony atmosphere, thus attracting corresponding customer group."

Mu Shuiqing chattered for a long time, and found that Ji Xiaomo was staring at him in a daze, and quickly suppressed his excitement and imagination, and said with a smile: "How about it, the concubine's plan is not bad."

"My concubine has a lot of wonderful ideas...just..." Ji Xiaomo pretended to be suspicious: "The palace only has a total of more than 5000 taels of silver, including the 3000 taels worth of the palace. 2000 taels. It is really difficult to spend 1000 taels of silver all at once.”

"My lord!" Mu Shuiqing suddenly ran in front of Ji Xiaomo, holding his hand staringly and said, "What is 1000 taels of silver? I will definitely double it a hundred times for the lord, no, a thousand times! So Believe me! My lord, take it as an investment, and I will definitely make my lord's money reap the benefits, and become the world's richest man!" Mu Shuiqing thought happily, so she would be the world's richest woman!
"Then..." Ji Xiaomo groaned for a while, then nodded slightly, "I'm sorry, Princess."

"Thank you, my lord! My lord, you are the best man in the world!" Mu Shuiqing, who got cheap, immediately sweetened her mouth. After wiping Ji Xiaomo's legs and serving him to bed, she hopped and ran to the bathroom.

Ji Xiaomo, who was issued a good person card, smiled helplessly, and then he suddenly restrained his smile, looked at the window with cold eyes, and said calmly: "She has gone away. Mo Hua, can you find anything from the investigation? "

A black shadow flashed by, and one person stood at the window and said softly: "In the morning, the princess went to the teahouse to lose her temper, and then spent the afternoon talking with the owner of the yard next door about the price of the yard, and finally settled at 500 taels." The concubine looked cunning, and Mo Hua felt that rather than negotiating the price, he felt that the concubine was extorting domineeringly. In that prosperous area, more than 500 square meters cost at least 800 taels.The princess said that someone died in your yard, so it would be nice if someone bought it. 500 taels, if you don't sell it to me, I will spread the ghosts in your yard everywhere to see who dares to buy your yard.The other party couldn't tell the concubine who was so eloquent, and finally sold out hemorrhage.

"The subordinates have investigated the few people I met on the road, and there is no suspicious person yet. It's just that at night, the princess went to Yixian Tower to rest for a while, and then secretly wanted to sneak into the inner courtyard..." Mo Hua hesitated After a while, "Why did the princess sneak into the Yixian Building for no reason. My subordinates guessed whether the man had discovered something, so he sent the princess to sneak in... Do I need my subordinates..." His eyes turned cold, and he made a question. The action of wiping the neck.

Ji Xiaomo was slightly startled, and it took him a long time before he said, "Slow down..."

"What is the prince hesitating for?" Mo Hua hurriedly said, "If that person finds out, wouldn't the prince's efforts for so many years be in vain..."

"Mo Hua, when did you become so impulsive..." A pair of indifferent starry eyes looked straight at Mo Hua, and Mo Yu's pupils were filled with a bottomless abyss, like an endless abyss.He lightly opened his lips: "An accident happened the second day after she went to Yixian Tower, what do you think that person will think?"

He lightly supported his forehead with his hand, and his wide sleeves covered his delicate face, leaving only a faint smile of unknown meaning.

"Let's see what she wants to do..."

After Mu Shui came back from cleaning in vain, he saw that Ji Xiaomo was not asleep, but was lying on the bed looking at him with a gloomy expression, and couldn't help being startled.Ji Xiaomo was actually waiting for her... Could it be that the bridal night, which has been dragging on for so long, is really coming?
She immediately stepped forward flatteringly, rubbing his shoulders and back for him: "My lord, your body is so weak, you must not be good at that aspect! You should lie down obediently, and this concubine will rub your shoulders, back and feet for you...serve you Good rest, let the prince have a sweet dream..."

Ji Xiaomo was just pondering and analyzing, it's not the kind of Mu Shuiqing's brain.Now that Mu Shuiqing said this, he twitched the corner of his mouth, and said in a hoarse voice: "Princess, do you want to try..."

"For the sake of the prince's body, let's forget it..."

Seeing Ji Xiaomo holding his hand suddenly, Mu Shuiqing closed her eyes in panic and said, "My lord! That matter hurts your body! And you need to use your waist... Your lord has inconvenient legs and feet, so you can't use your waist... Listen to my concubine From the bottom of my heart... let's rest..."

"..."

"My lord, my concubine is asleep...fufufufu..."

"Do you still want 1000 taels of silver notes?"

"My lord..." Mu Shuiqing said with tears in his eyes, "You can't make fun of your own life, something will happen..."

There was a stack of silver bills stuffed in her hand, it was so warm that it made her heart thump, her eyes stared straight at Ji Xiaomo, and for a moment she felt that he was handsome and handsome like never before.

"Thank you, my lord. My lord is really the best person in the whole country! My concubines are willing to go through fire and water for my lord, and I will do whatever I can..."

"Hey, lord, don't sleep...the concubine's heartfelt words haven't finished yet..."
