Chapter 180 It's not easy to discuss important matters
Shen Shenshen ordered Lu Hen to ask the doctor in the mansion to prepare a bowl of refreshing medicine. After drinking it, she changed into a lady's ordinary dress and left the mansion.
Shen Shenshen took a short nap in the carriage and felt a little better, then arrived at Heyinlou.
After entering the door, Shen Shenshen was stunned.
This is the Dongxiang-style luxury store she wanted to build.
The original main entrance had six wooden doors, but Shen Shen Shen replaced them with eight glass doors with excellent light transmittance. Two of the glass doors can be opened and closed for entry and exit, and the rest are all sealed and used only as display windows. Behind the window is a wooden mannequin display stand made by a carpenter according to her requirements. The wooden mannequin only has the upper body and no female features. The maid covered the wooden mannequin with white brocade according to Shen Shen Shen's description, waiting to match it with precious jewelry on the opening day.
Walking in, the entire main hall was lined with display cabinets of fixed sizes against the walls and in front of the white marble pillars. The cabinets were rectangular, and each cabinet had a glazed top, which was dazzling under the candlelight and sunlight. At the same time, there were two round stools in front of the cabinets, and the stools were covered with Shen Shenshen's favorite green silk cloth with silver patterns embroidered on it. The candlelight reflected on the stools and made them sparkle.
On several platforms in different corners, Shen Shen had carpenters build wooden mannequins with extended necks and faces. Before the opening, they put on beautiful jewelry from Heyinlou and showed them to the ladies. At the same time, many wooden boards were installed on the walls of the hall, and the wooden boards were filled with round balls made of colored glaze. There were a total of 100 colored glaze balls as big as an adult man's fist, which decorated the walls with incomparable luxury.
Second floor, private room.
The private room where Shen Shenshen and Zhu Yanxiao got engaged was also modified. Shen Shenshen separated the entire second floor into three independent private rooms. The wooden carved window frames were enlarged and replaced with glazed windows, allowing sunlight to penetrate better into the room.
Each private room had an octagonal table that could seat eight noble ladies, and the floor was covered with a thick Beiyan wool carpet, which Zhu Yanxiao had purchased from Beiyan at a high price. The tablecloth was also green silk embroidered with silver patterns, and a wide area was left for the maids to display jewelry for the super noble guests.
Shen Shenshen didn't open the third floor to the public. One room was used as the shopkeeper's 'office', and the other side of the building was converted into a staff dormitory, so that servants or maids who were not from the capital could stay at Heyinlou.
Shen Shenshen transformed everything according to her memories of her previous life. Zhu Yanxiao let go and changed everything completely according to her ideas.
After a round of communication with Shopkeeper He and handling some details, Shen Shenshen gathered his energy and held a "opening promotion meeting" for the maids and servants. Because each piece of jewelry sold had a different commission income, the servants found it very new and learned very hard. All the servants were eager to get ready.
Now everything is ready, just waiting for the opening.
It was already noon when he walked out of Heyinlou. He didn't notice the distraction when he was busy, but now that he was relaxing, Shen Shenshen felt tired and hungry and just wanted to lie down and take a nap.
Just as she was about to get on the carriage, she heard a voice calling her.
"Second Miss Shen?"
Shen Shen turned around and was quite surprised to see this person. He saluted hurriedly: "Thank you, Master."
He saw that Young Master Xie Wang'an was also looking at him in surprise. Next to him stood a very beautiful girl, wearing a crescent-white, narrow-sleeved, double-breasted short shirt and a pomegranate red pleated skirt embroidered with gold thread, which was obviously an extraordinary item.
Xie Wangan went to Zuiyue Tower for lunch today. Just as she was about to enter the building, she saw a familiar figure and immediately called her.
"Miss Shen, there is no need to be so polite. Let me introduce you. This is Yuan Ziwen, the third daughter of the Minister of Personnel, Yuan. Ziwen, this is Miss Shen, the second daughter of the Marquis of Anbo."
"Ms. Yuan Ziwen." Shen Shenshen bowed.
The girl exclaimed in surprise, "Second Miss Shen of Anbohou? Are you Shenshen?"
"Miss Yuan Ziwen knows Shenshen?" She was puzzled. She had no impression of ever seeing the daughter of the Minister of Personnel.
"God, who in the capital has not heard of Miss Shen Er nowadays? The woman who snatched away Prince Zhu is the natural enemy of us Dongxiang women."
"Natural enemy?!" Shen Shen was stunned. What the hell is this?!
"However, it is rumored that you are so beautiful that you are not ordinary people, so Prince Zhu was bewitched. It is true that Miss Shen is so beautiful that it is amazing. I was originally unwilling to accept it and I also call myself a great beauty, even more beautiful than Mu Chuchu. After seeing Miss Shen today, I admit defeat."
Shen Shenshen could only use his favorite awkward laugh to ease the embarrassment, "Ms. Yuan Ziwen is so funny, haha, so funny." He turned his gaze to Master Xie beside him for help.
"God, you haven't had your meal yet, right? Let's eat together." Master Xie suggested.
"No, no, I'm going back home and won't disturb you two." She didn't want to be a light bulb.
"Second Miss Shen, take care." Yuan Ziwen was very blunt and wished she would leave quickly.
"Ziwen, don't mess around."
"Xie Weichuan, this woman wanted to leave on her own initiative. How could she be so silly? Master, you don't like this woman just because she's pretty. You're really a vixen."
Vixen???
Shen Shenshen was full of question marks. No, does this Miss What? have an imaginary enemy persecution disorder? Xie Wangan could actually tolerate such a domineering person. Tsk tsk tsk tsk, he must be attracted by the girl's appearance. Humph, a pervert.
"Um... goodbye then." Shen Shenshen was too lazy to pay attention to them. He was so sleepy that he didn't have the energy or strength to argue.
"Shen Shen, don't leave. Have dinner with me." Without waiting for Shen Shen to reply, he turned around and walked towards Zuiyue Tower.
"Hmph. And you still say you're not a vixen." Yuan Ziwen glared at her and caught up with Master Xie in a few steps.
"I rely on."
Shen Shen couldn't help but swear. It turned out that this Lord Xie didn't like the domineering Miss Yuan and used him as a tool.
I have always been the one calculating others, how dare this damned young master use me? Just wait for me.
Shen Shen ordered Lu Hen to go to Heyin Tower and wait for him. He was originally very sleepy, but now he stepped into Zuiyue Tower full of anger and murderous intent.
When I entered the private room reserved by Master Xie, I saw Yuan Zimei looking at Shen Shenshen with an unfriendly face, and the meaning was obvious: the vixen really followed me.
"Wei Chuan isn't here?" Shen Shen took a quick look and didn't see Xie Wang'an.
"Weichuan? Miss Shen is very familiar with the young master? You should just call him Young Master Xie."
Shen Shenshen smiled: "Miss Yuan likes Weichuan?"
"What does it have to do with you?"
"That means he likes her. Does Weichuan like Miss Yuan?"
"Humph!" Yuan Zimei asked back, "Young Master, if you don't like me, does he like Second Miss Shen?"
"Oh, that's hard to say. After all, I'm so popular."
"Shen Shenshen." Yuan Zimei shouted angrily, "You already have Prince Zhu, do you still want to seduce Master Xie?"
Xie Wangan happened to come into the room and was surprised when he heard this: "Who wants to seduce me?"
"Brother Weichuan, where have you been? Shenshen has been waiting for a long time." Shen·Green Tea·Shenshen said in a coquettish voice.
Xie Wangan didn't walk steadily and tripped over the leg of a chair in the private room, almost getting hurt.
"Shen.....God." He held his forehead with his hand.
"Shen Shen, what are you going to do?" Yuan Zimei was extremely alert.
"Oh, Miss Yuan, you misunderstood. What can a god do? It's just to say hello to Brother Weichuan." After saying that, he moved towards the seat where Xie Wangan was sitting.
Master Xie quickly moved to the side and said, "God, I don't want to be targeted by Ziyuan." He quickly turned his head and said to the outside, "Come in."
The maid from the restaurant carried three cups of tea into the private room.
Xie Wangan picked up a cup and placed it in front of Yuan Zimei: "Zimei, have some tea."
He then took up the other two and placed them before the gods and himself.
Yuan Zimei's eyes lit up, she lifted the teacup and sniffed it, and said in surprise: "It's my favorite fallen chrysanthemum dew. Wei Chuan actually knows my favorite."
"Of course. Zimei, try it." Xie Wangan smiled brightly.
No one paid any attention to Shen Shenshen anymore. Yuan Zimei and Xie Wangan were chatting happily. That was because Master Xie understood women's feelings, which made Yuan Zimei laugh. Soon, the cup of tea was finished.
Shen Shenshen was drinking tea and waiting for lunch. He watched the two chatting and laughing, and rolled his eyes in his heart: hypocrisy. He really didn't understand why Master Xie asked him to come to dinner. Wasn't he handling it well? !
Lunch was ready. Shen Shenshen was too lazy to think about it. Just as he was about to pick up some dishes, he heard a "dong" and Yuan Zimei's head rested on the eight-immortals table.
Fell asleep.
Master Xie breathed a sigh of relief, raised his teacup and drank a sip of tea before saying to Shen Shen: "Finally fell asleep. It's really not easy to talk to Shen Shen."
