Traveling through ancient times

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is mid-November, and the women workers have already prepared enough clothes!

On the main street of Shannan County, rows of colorful flags were hung from east to west. No matter how big or small, they all said: "Lianrui Clothing Store welcomes you!"

Even the branch streets would hang banners in prominent places, saying "Please visit the main street, Lianrui Clothing Store welcomes you!"

"Move the left side down a little bit... Yes, yes, yes... No, it's a little too low... Move it up a little bit!... OK, OK, now it's straight!"

The plaque of Lianrui Clothing Store has just been hung up. It was Gu Dalian who persuaded the county magistrate, said a lot of good things, and brought two bottles of good wine, so that Wu Shicai pretended to write the plaque reluctantly!

In addition, when President Gu heard from Gu Wenzhi that his sister had opened a clothing store, he agreed to bring his family to show his support for the store in exchange for the good wine that Gu Wenzhi had given her as a gift!

"I heard that the headmaster of Shannan Academy is coming, and I don't know where the owner of Lianrui Clothing Store comes from."

"What's that? I heard that the magistrate of Shannan County will also come here to cut the ribbon for the opening ceremony."

"I just heard on the road that the young master of Fuman Restaurant from Kyoto is here too!"

"Tsk, I heard that the managers of Yuanfang Escort Agency and Luo's Escort Agency in town came last night, and they also came to see this store opening. These two escort agencies are all over the country and have great reputations!"

For a while, there were many different opinions, and people on the street crowded onto the main street in order to catch a glimpse of the boss behind Lianrui Clothing Store!

All the bigwigs gathered in front of the clothing store and sang along with the ceremonial officer: "The auspicious time has arrived!"

Gu Dalian and Gu Xiaolian held the two ends of the red silk, Zhao Langze came forward with a tray, and Wu Shi took a pair of scissors from the tray and cut the red silk in the middle!

Lianrui Clothing Store officially opened as the red cloth covering it was removed!

Then lion dancers came forward to add to the fun. They leaped and leaped so fast that it was truly thrilling and spectacular, and the crowd onlookers kept cheering!

"Great, this is the first time I've seen such a good lion dance!"

"Everyone in this lion dance team has kung fu skills, otherwise they wouldn't be able to dance so well. Look at the mid-air flips, most people can never do that!"

With a burst of cheers, the lion team finished their dance and the lion heads were taken down. It turned out to be Qi Shanhu, Qi Dihu and Qi Zhuanghu!

This dedication is really touching!

Gu Dalian was still a little confused at this time!

"I am Wei Zhiming, the manager of Yuanfang Escort Agency. I am here on the orders of my master to congratulate you on the opening of your store. I wish you a prosperous opening of Lianrui Clothing Store! May you make a lot of money and have everything go well!"

A middle-aged man with a slender figure and steady steps bowed and made a speech. He ordered people to present a gift, which was a golden toad fortune-attracting ornament. He also sealed the gift and Xu Wenhua and his men took it. He Laikun registered!

"Everything goes smoothly, two dragons soar, three sheep bring prosperity, and all seasons are peaceful. I wish Lianrui Clothing Store will be as prosperous as the spring breeze, and as moist as the spring rain, and its wealth will flow into the three rivers."

A thin man with a sturdy figure and bright eyes bowed his hands and introduced himself:

"I am Luo Guanhu, the general manager of Luo's Escort Agency. I am here on behalf of my master to congratulate you on the opening of your treasure shop!"

Gu Dalian's heart moved. The black token given by Luo Gouzi was still lying in the space. She didn't expect to meet the general manager of Luo's Escort Agency today. Luo Gouzi was really thoughtful!

Luo Guanhu continued, "My master is busy, so he sent me a pigeon to come here without stopping. I am in a hurry, so I will prepare a small gift first, and I will prepare another big gift for my master when he comes back!"

Although Gu Dalian has now entered the ranks of wealthy women, who would dislike having too much money? Her phoenix eyes smiled like crescents:

"Mr. Luo, you are so polite. I appreciate your kindness!"

Hu Shiwei came over with a woman in her forties and two pretty teenage girls, and said with a smile:

"Miss Gu's Lianrui clothing store is opening, so I brought my wife and daughter here to take a look. I heard that your clothes are unique, and even the best clothing stores in Kyoto don't have them!"

Gu Dalian bowed and said, "Uncle Shanzhang, Auntie and two sisters, please come in. We have separate men's and women's clothing. Men's clothing is on the right and women's clothing is on the left. There are shop assistants to help you try on clothes!"

The slightly older girl next to Hu Shiwei was handsome and neat. She held a framed painting in her hand and said:

"Sister Gu, this is a painting my father drew as a gift for the opening of the business!"

"Oh, how can I accept this? It's too expensive!"

Gu Dalian said sorry, but she had already stretched out her hands to take it, her eyes full of joy!

You know, even the upper class in Kyoto can’t buy Hu Shanchang’s calligraphy and paintings even if they pay a huge sum of money!

The girl found Gu Dalian so cute that she couldn't help but giggle and said:

"My sister and I are going to pick out some clothes carefully today and make dad bleed a lot!"

After handing the calligraphy and painting to Qi Huli and putting it away, Gu Dalian used her inner strength to speak to the noisy crowd:

"Everyone, today is the opening day of our Lianrui Clothing Store. We are offering a three-day promotion. For every set of clothes that customers buy, we will give them a pair of pearl earrings. For every three sets of clothes that customers buy, we will give them a coral bracelet!"

"You can also form a team on your own. As long as you meet the requirements, you will receive gifts!"

Wu Shi, Hu Shiwei and the heads of the two escort agencies were invited by Gu Wenzhi to the backyard for tea, accompanied by Master Wang Jie and Chief Clerk Wang!

Of course, the tea was also the top-quality Dahongpao that Gu Dalian specially took out from the space!

Not to mention how many people drank the tea and praised it highly!

There are a lot of customers coming and going in front!

If it weren’t for Gu Dalian’s foresight to provide pre-job training for all the shop assistants she recruited, and also provide counseling and training for all the servants in the house, we probably wouldn’t be able to cope today!

The Five Tigers stood outside the clothing store and divided the stores into several areas. Ten people went in first, five came out, and then five more went in. The women's store was looked after by Hu Li, and the men's store was looked after by Zhuang Hu!

This time, Wu Shi specifically ordered Captain Zheng to bring more than fifty yamen runners to maintain order. If it weren't for the pressure released by the Five Tigers, there would probably be chaos!

The first wave of people who came out were all smiling happily, and some even put on new clothes!

Some are heroic and dashing, some are ethereal and airy. The clothes make fat people look thin and thin people look slim. People with small hips have extra folds on their skirts at the back, which immediately makes their curves look enchanting!

Each of them was carrying a clothing bag with the Lotus Core logo. Each of them was carrying several large bags. It was obvious that they had bought a lot. They walked confidently and boldly, showing off the gift earrings. The camellia earrings inlaid with pearls were something I had never seen before and were very refreshing!

Some deliberately show off the rings on their hands, which are made of coral and are unique, or show off the bracelets on their wrists, which match their clothes to create an aura of their own!

People outside are even more anxious, fearing that if they are too late they won’t be able to buy anything, let alone get the gifts!

This is Gu Dalian's little trick. The title deed of the burned-down Wu's Silver House has been bought back from the county government at the lowest price! Gu Dalian plans to build a building on the spot to do jewelry business!

All the atrocities reported by Wu Shi about the county magistrate Wu have been verified one by one by people sent from above.

All of the Wu family’s close relatives were thrown into prison, and County Magistrate Wu was executed immediately, and all of his family members were made official slaves!

It is said that County Magistrate Wu refused to admit it until the county magistrate showed him evidence, and only then did he sign and seal his name!

This time, the person who came to investigate the case was Luo Yizhi, the son of Luo Lie from Changning Marquis Mansion, who was at odds with Wu Guogong Mansion!

Although he failed to wipe out the Wu Guogong Mansion in one fell swoop, he did get rid of a lot of grasshoppers on the rope, and Duke Wu Yi was so angry that he almost vomited blood!

All the assets under the name of County Magistrate Wu will be auctioned off, and the money obtained will be paid out to the victims one by one after verification according to the regulations!

By buying clothes and giving away jewelry today, the people of Shannan will pay attention to both Lianrui’s clothing and Lianrui jewelry!

Another little trick of Gu Dalian is to put a logo on each piece of jewelry. Even if others can imitate it, they cannot surpass it!

What's more, in the eyes of ordinary people, corals are so precious, but Gu Dalian's space is full of them!
