Although Liu Jin said this, Ling Chuan still drafted a marketing plan for the opening.

When we arrived at the Pearl Bridge the next day, we found that Shengshi Liuli had already started to decorate with lights and colors. It took only one day to complete the decoration.

After checking some details with Liu Jin, Ling Chuan found that Liu Jin's arrangements were even more detailed than his own, and even his own marketing plan was of little use.

Any discounts or customer lock-in? None of them apply.

"Mr. Ling, what you said would be great if placed in an ordinary shop, but it would not be useful in Shengshi Liuli. The guests who come by then will more or less give face to Madam Li."

When Liu Jin said this, he couldn't help showing a smug look on his face: "Let's put it this way, Madam Li invited them to attend the opening ceremony of this shop because she was giving them face. It's because Madam Li doesn't lack this little money. Otherwise, they would have made the order even if the price doubled, so there's no need to give them a discount at all."

Ling Chuan swallowed his saliva and pointed at the marketing plan and said, "If that's the case, then the above ones won't work. But this one can be used. You don't have to give discounts, but you can give some specific gifts to make the guests feel that Madam Li treats them specially. What do you think?"

Liu Jin glanced at Ling Chuan and said, "Mr. Ling is really good at understanding people's hearts. This is a good idea. Giving these special gifts will make them grateful to my master."

Ling Chuan was too tired to complain. They were just some small decorations on the windows. Although they were quite exquisite, they were not enough to make people feel grateful.

However, Ling Chuan also understood one thing, the gift is not the point, who gave it is the point, so he took the opportunity to ask Liu Jin: "That's true, with Mrs. Li's status, let alone such a beautiful gift, even if you just give them a piece of snack, they will have to thank you."

Liu Jin looked at Ling Chuan with a strange look in his eyes, and his eyes turned several times: "Master Ling, do you know the identity of my master?"

"I know, Madam Li is the one in the palace..."

Ling Chuan's words were pure guesswork, just to test Liu Jin's reaction. According to his previous speculation, since Madam Li was Lu Xi's elder, she must be a royal relative, so he simply raised his guess to a higher level to see if Liu Jin would refute it.

But unexpectedly, Liu Jin only raised his eyebrows, his expression did not change at all, and he changed the subject directly: "Mr. Ling, we still need to use Yunfuji's cakes on the opening day. Can Yunfuji customize a batch of cakes that are different from those in the street shops?"

Ling Chuan slapped his thigh and said, "Manager Liu, don't worry about the dim sum. As long as you let Yun Fu Ji do some advertising, we will provide all the dim sum for free."

He also had a flash of inspiration and thought that Yunfu Ji's dim sum could also be customized for high-end purposes. There are so many wealthy people in the capital, and this would be a lucrative business.

"What advertisement?" Liu Jin looked a little wary.

Ling Chuan explained: "In order to be worthy of Shengshi Liuli, I plan to launch a batch of high-end and classy dim sum. If customers eat well, they will patronize my Yunfuji business. This is advertising."

Liu Jin breathed a sigh of relief: "That's no problem. If anyone has any questions, I can introduce you to the guests on your behalf."

Ling Chuan grabbed Liu Jin's hand and said, "Thank you very much."

"Mr. Ling, you are too polite. Your Yunfuji is already well-known and is specially supplied to the royal family. I am just doing it for the sake of convenience."

After coming out of Shengshi Liuli, Ling Chuan turned around and went to the Jiaofangsi. Zhao Youtang didn't come with him today. Firstly, he was afraid to meet the Queen Mother. His legs trembled when he saw her. Secondly, he was afraid that Ling Chuan would pull him to ask about the Queen Mother's situation, and he was afraid that he would accidentally let the cat out of the bag.

So he waited at home, waiting for Lingchuan to finish his work and come to invite him to go to the Jiaofangsi.

During this period of time, he finally understood that although Ling Chuan had always treated Tao Ran with courtesy, Tao Ran's heart was already firmly tied to Ling Chuan.

So he has come to terms with the fact that there is no point in giving up the entire forest for a tree.

These words were said by Ling Chuan. Following Ling Chuan to the Jiaofangsi not only didn't cost any money, but he could also get the flattery of so many girls. Zhao Youtang was simply having a free and easy time during this period.

Zhao Youtang was also a frequent visitor to Qinlou and Chuguan. On the Qinhuai River, everyone knew his name, the Second Young Master Zhao. The experience of paying and not paying was completely different.

He was sitting cross-legged on the porch in the front yard waiting for Ling Chuan, but Ling Chuan didn't come, but Zhao Youxuan came back instead.

Ever since he insulted Zhao Youxuan with the silver note last time, the two brothers haven't seen each other for several days.

It is now past noon, the right time for lunch. Usually Zhao Youxuan is on duty in the yamen at this time, or having lunch and socializing with colleagues. Zhao Youtang did not expect Zhao Youxuan to come back home at this time. If he had known, he would not have stayed in this front yard.

So when he saw Zhao Youxuan, he just glanced at him from the side, then closed his eyes and continued humming his little tune.

Zhao Youxuan just glanced at his younger brother who was competing with him for favor and walked inside. However, he had not taken a few steps when there was a knock on the door. His younger brother immediately jumped up from the recliner.

Zhao Youxuan's pace suddenly slowed down and he pricked up his ears.

As soon as Zhao Youtang went out, he heard his slightly surprised voice: "Brother Ling, why did you come just now? I'm hungry."

"That's perfect. The food at the Jiaofangsi is pretty good."

"Yes, yes, yes, let's go to the Jiaofangsi to get some food."

The two voices were obviously talking as they walked. Zhao Youxuan immediately turned around and moved to the door, only to hear Ling Chuan's voice.

"The Shengshi Liuli will open the day after tomorrow. Are you really not going to join in the fun?"

Zhao Youtang shook his head like a rattle: "No, no, I won't go even if you kill me. You go by yourself."

"You really don't want to go?"

"I really don't want to go!"

"Okay, then..."

The voices gradually faded away and could no longer be heard, but Zhao Youxuan still didn't give up. He secretly looked through the crack in the door and saw that the two people had already boarded the donkey cart and walked away.

Within half an hour, the news reached Xu Hongtu, and a fierce expression appeared on his wrinkled face.

"Lingchuan, Lingchuan, I want to use your head to sacrifice to my Xu family ancestors, to comfort the innocent souls of my Xu family who were killed by you."

Of course, Xu Hongtu was not the only one who got the news. Before it even got dark, assassination plans had already been put into place one after another.

To be precise, it cannot be considered an assassination, but an encirclement and killing. In their plan, Ling Chuan must die.

Ling Chuan was also unaware at this time. In his opinion, the opening of Shengshi Liuli was of vital importance.

Zhao Youtang couldn't find out the real identity of Madam Li. When the store opened, all the guests were invited by Madam Li. How could he not know her identity? Ling Chuan didn't believe that none of the people had revealed their true identity.
