For a moment, the people next to him cast envious glances at Arash.
Arash, who had sharp ears, also heard a few people behind him whispering about his financial resources.
Even the wealthy businessman who had been with Arash just now looked at him with admiration.
At this time, Arash felt that if nothing else, the envious looks from other people alone were worth a lot of money.
After all, there are quite a lot of things to do in this era. As a wealthy businessman, although he is rich, he rarely has the opportunity to show off.
His carriage cannot exceed government regulations, and even the clothes he wears are restricted. Some materials and colors are not available to him.
This makes him such a wealthy businessman rarely able to highlight his identity, but it is different now. Once he gets the diamond card here, other people will look at him differently.
"Hold it, sir, here is your card!" The waitress handed out a card. Even though Arash had been traveling around for so many years, he did not recognize what material the card was made of.
Just kidding, this is the PVC membership card they made together when Tang Ping went back to work as an inkjet printer in an advertising company. People in this era would be surprised if they saw it.
This is why he dared to open a membership card, because in this era, there is no possibility of counterfeiting for such a card.
Arash looked carefully and found that there were some instructions for using the card written on the card, and there was a row of small numbers in the lower right corner.
"Is this my number? Why am I number 51?"
Arash was a little strange. He was the first person to apply for a card here.
"In response to the guest officer's request, we at Xihelou have given the card in front to His Majesty, King Zhao, King Qin and others."
As soon as he said this, Arash not only didn't think there was anything wrong with his card being fifty-one, but his face glowed with excitement.
I see, I see, His Majesty the Tang Dynasty must be the No. 1 card, and His Highness the King of Qin is the No. 2 card. Being ranked 50th is already a very high ranking.
And Arash, who was hesitant about pre-recharging a hundred coins just now, is now completely relieved.
Yes, someone recognized this store just now. It was the signboard written by His Majesty. Look at the portraits of Fang and Du Erxiang hanging on both sides. The first flower basket placed in the opening flower basket was also sent by His Majesty. What else is there to worry about?
How could he take his own money and run away from a store like this? Is Datang still shameless?
Thinking about it this way, the diamond card he got was worth thousands of dollars, but he didn't know yet that there were even greater benefits waiting for him.
"Congratulations to your guest for becoming our diamond member. There will be a Mid-Autumn Festival Party event tonight specifically for diamond members. If you have leisure, please take the time to come."
"Mid-Autumn Festival Party?"
Today, August 15th, is the Mid-Autumn Festival. Of course he knows, but this Mid-Autumn Festival party is a new term, and this is the first time he has heard it.
"Yes, if the guests are free, they will know when they arrive. The time starts from today's You hour. Oh, by the way, all consumption for diamond members in this event is free. Guests can also bring a companion with them. "
"All consumption is free? Can you bring a companion?" Arash was shocked again. The owner of this restaurant is so heroic. This diamond card is a great value.
It's just that he doesn't seem to have any close friends in Chang'an. Thinking of this, he looked at the wealthy businessman photographed behind him and said, "Brother, why don't you come with me tonight."
The wealthy businessman smiled and nodded: "It's natural to come, but I also need to apply for a membership card!"
In this way, after lunch time passed and Li Shimin left with the ministers, Tang Ping had time to come to the first floor.
"Luyi, how's the booking status going?"
"Sir, the reserved seats in our restaurant have been reserved for half a month." Lu Yi really didn't expect that a newly opened restaurant would become so popular under Tang Ping's understatement.
At the beginning, Tang Ping recruited a lot of people, not only the waiters, but also the cooks and diners in the back kitchen.
Everyone also feels that there are too many people and the salary offered is too high.
Only now did I realize Tang Ping's foresight. If he hadn't recruited so many people, the chef and waiter would probably have been exhausted.
But this is not what excites Luyi the most. What excites Luyi the most is today’s membership card.
"Sir, a total of 18 diamond membership cards were issued today, with a total advance fee of 1,800 guan; 34 gold membership cards, a total advance fee of 1,700 guan; and 98 silver membership cards, with a total advance fee of 1,700 guan. The fee is 980 guan; there are 360 brass membership cards, and the total precharge is 360 guan. The total recharge amount of the membership card reaches 4840 guan!"
Of course, such a large amount cannot be all made of copper coins. Large transactions in this era were mostly done in silk.
But when Lu Yi knew the amount for the first time, she felt a little numb.
She lived in a convenience store and was responsible for accounting for Tang Ping. Of course she knew that Tang Ping borrowed 500 yuan from Wang Qingluan to open this restaurant. But today, on the first day of opening, Tang Ping took back nearly 500 yuan. Qianguan is ten times the investment.
Tang Ping didn't express much about this. You must know that the first fifty cards of the diamond membership card represent a recharge of 5,000 coins, and he asked Li Yuanji to hand over the fifty cards to His Majesty at once.
At that time, His Majesty can send it to whomever he wants, but as long as you open the card with that card, it will be considered as having a hundred coins in it.
So to put it bluntly, he spent 5,000 guan today to advertise the most expensive advertisement in the Tang Dynasty. It was expected that he would get back close to 5,000 guan today.
However, a restaurant is a long-term business. In addition, he opened this restaurant to take advantage of some differences between the two eras. It can be said that the profit margin is scary high.
So as long as the turnover rate is high enough, he expects that he can earn back the 500 guan lent to him by Wang Qingluan in about a month.
What you earn later is pure profit.
The only thing that dissatisfied Tang Ping was... being too tired!
If it weren't for the purpose of avenging Xiao Luo, I wouldn't want to spend so much effort and time to build such a restaurant. Wouldn't it be nice to just open my own convenience store in Shanghe Village, wait for the system's tasks, and then return to modern times?
I don't know what happened to the system recently. There has been no big movement. However, Tang Ping felt that maybe it was because the things he was doing now did not have a big enough impact on the entire Tang Dynasty, so the system did not assign any tasks to him.
After picking himself up, there were still many guests who had made reservations coming back for dinner in the afternoon and before dinner. He asked Lu Yi to watch more while he went to the backyard.
Tonight's Mid-Autumn Festival party must not go wrong. I have to check it again.
