After Chen Ze had a friendly negotiation with the madam of Baichunlou, the madam happily agreed to cooperate with Chen Ze.
Behind the scenes, the Peng family was naturally greeted cordially by Bai Hupao. They were moved by Bai Hupao's enthusiastic attitude and were willing to become partners with Chen Ze. They temporarily handed over the three-month management rights of Baichun Building to Chen Ze. .
Of course, it was definitely not in the name of the Crown Prince.
Externally, Chen Zedou claimed that he was Li Yuankang, the chief security officer of the palace.
Li Yuankang:?
After the matter was settled, Li Yuankang looked at Chen Ze with a bitter look on his face.
"Isn't it just that I borrowed your name?" Chen Ze said angrily: "As for putting on such a face?"
"Master, aren't you trapping me into being unkind and unjust!?"
"What's wrong with that?"
"You are buying and selling in my name, forcing people to transfer the store to you for three months. If the palace finds out by then, I won't be able to move my head!"
"It's not that serious..." Chen Ze waved his hand: "There are so many bullies in the palace, who would hold on to you as a general manager?"
"Besides, the people from Baichun Tower will definitely not dare to tell the outside world, don't worry!" Chen Ze patted his chest: "Besides, if the news leaks out, the palace will be blamed, and I will bear all the responsibility!"
"Master, you have to keep your word!" Li Yuankang said anxiously: "When something happens, you have to bear the responsibility!"
"Don't worry, I will definitely bear it!" Chen Ze grinned: "Besides, if we really make money, I will give them some share then, and the Madam of Baichun House and the Peng family may have to thank you, maybe I’m providing for you at home!”
Li Yuankang doesn't expect to make money or not, he just hopes that this matter will never leak out.
"Okay, okay, don't feel wronged. At worst, I will use Zhao Ziyun's name next time, not yours."
"..."
Chen Ze knew the right measure here.
I just borrowed the operating rights for three months. I didn’t ask for the land deed, and I didn’t ask for anyone.
Anyway, there has been no business in these months, and it is unlikely that there will be business in the future, so why not lend it to me for three months.
Chen Ze also specially made a loan statement in the name of Li Yuankang and signed it with the Madam and the Peng family.
In the next three months, I will be responsible for my profits and losses, and I will not let the Madam and the Peng family contribute any money.
Because Chen Ze couldn't 100% guarantee whether the business would be successful, he first used prostitution for three months to test the store and artificially.
If the business doesn't work, don't do it. If it does, we'll see how things go.
What happens next is divided into three steps.
The first is store renovation, the second is personnel training, and the third is soft furnishing facilities.
The storefront should be renovated into a unique and novel style to attract attention, so the lobby can be decorated in a modern style.
The soft decoration facilities mainly include installing sinks and separate bathrooms, getting some sofas and recliners, and installing automatic flushing toilets.
The toilet is easy to make, the structure is not complicated, and the principle is simple. There is no need for a water pump to pump water. Just set up a large water tank on the third floor. Bamboo or ceramic pipes can be used as water pipes. They can be sealed and a flush switch can be added.
Sofas and lounge chairs use cowhide bands and twine braid as elastic materials, and then cover them with soft cushions.
What is slightly more troublesome is personnel training.
Chen Zed had to lead it himself. After all, there is one set of words for men and another for women.
The brothel formula works for men, but not for women.
You must be able to praise, and if you are educated, you can add some ancient poems to praise.
Only when people are happy in their hearts will they be willing to consume.
For example, besides the top one in Baichunlou, there are two others who are a bit squeamish. Usually, others take care of them, so they probably don't have the ability to take care of others.
Go down and play the guzheng and pipa to enhance the atmosphere.
No need to sing, just pure music.
I'm really afraid that when you open your mouth, you'll sound so arrogant and make people embarrassed to come in.
The Baichun Tower's signboard was naturally taken down by Chen Ze, and all the fancy decorations outside were also cleaned up.
The last step is to come up with a new store name. This thing needs to be high-end and classy.
I won’t consider anything like a lady’s paradise.
Chen Ze was really not good at naming, so he had to ask Fu Yanran to come over. A letter of revision was secretly sent to the Lin Mansion, and Fu Yanran quickly gave him a new name.
Muche.
Mu means washing hair, and Que has two meanings, one is lack, and the other is palace.
There is a unique way to play mahjong. Fu Yanran has played it before and it is very good.
After all, it's easy for big names to come out of that thing.
Okay, from now on I’ll call him Muxue.
The store and employees were free of charge, but more than a thousand taels were invested in soft furnishings and modifications.
After working hard for more than a week, invitation letters were finally printed and distributed in the name of Muxue and sent to the houses of various dignitaries, inviting their wives and family members to visit Muxue and experience mahjong for ladies, fragrance shampoo and hair treatment, etc. , the first time is free, and there are generous gifts, and you have the opportunity to win high-end perfume soap customized by Ningyuxuan, waiting for you.
They are all new gadgets, and Muque currently only accepts female guests, and there are big words posted outside the door explaining this.
I don’t expect business to be very popular on the first day. As long as it’s fresh and fun, I won’t worry about people coming later.
Chen Ze didn't take care of the business himself, but left it to the original madam of Baichun Tower.
My real name is Jiao Xiaocui.
In fact, he is not very old at all, only twenty-three, but he looks mature and looks like he is in his thirties.
Not from Qingzhou, but from Xizhou in the north.
Fourteen years ago, I followed my family to Zhongzhou to seek refuge with relatives. As a result, I was abducted by traffickers on the way. The nine-year-old girl was sold to a brothel in Jizhou.
I finally saved some money and ran away secretly. I originally planned to go to Zhongzhou, but I was abducted by another group of traffickers and sold to Qingzhou.
There's really no going back now.
Qingzhou is too far from Zhongzhou. It would take three months at the fastest, and it would probably take less than half a year to walk there.
Of course, the premise is that there won’t be any accidents on the road.
In the end, she settled in Qingzhou, which was considered a good fortune. The previous Madam of Baichunlou recognized her as her daughter and took over the business of Baichunlou.
Of course, Chen Ze didn't believe this story.
Half-truths, half-truths, half-truths and half-truths.
No one checked anyway.
But I have to admit that this Jiao Xiaocui is simply a sales talent.
Eloquent, eloquent, and extremely perceptive!
After learning the speaking skills taught by Chen Ze twice, she was able to apply them flexibly and draw inferences from one example.
Just when Chen Ze mentioned the membership system, Jiao Xiaocui understood it immediately and said hurriedly: "Sir, are these members divided into A, B, C and D? Whoever gives more money will have a higher membership status?"
Chen Ze couldn't help but clicked his tongue.
I kind of believe your story now.
It’s no wonder that the last madam didn’t accept you as her goddaughter. With this understanding, you can tell she is a good business person.
Chen Ze smiled: "Smart."
"Thank you, Lord Motoyasu, for the compliment."
Li Yuankang on the side said subconsciously: "Huh?"
