After buying the shop, Shi Lidie began preparing to open the tavern.

In the past, she made wine by herself and had limited energy. Now with the help of the Liu couple, she made a lot of wine at one time, filling the entire backyard.

Fifteen days later, the first batch of wine was almost ready, so she lit firecrackers, hung up the plaque bestowed by His Majesty that read "Sooner or Later It Will Be the Best in the World", and officially opened the business.

It was easy for her to open the business, after all, she had done it before in Luoyun Town and had experience.

So she moved the previous set of activities to Beijing without any changes, and started all over again, with gifts for visiting the store, lucky draws for silver and money, top-up discounts, group purchase discounts...

Even the well-informed people in Beijing have never seen so many business tricks in modern society.

Therefore, after Shi Lidie's tavern became an instant hit in Luoyun Town, it also became a hit in the capital.

More importantly, this opening was even grander than before.

Because the clients of Luoyun Town are the merchants and wealthy families there, but the clients of the capital, apart from the merchants and wealthy families, are mostly well-known and powerful people.

You may ask why the rich and powerful would come to a newly opened pub to buy alcohol?

It’s all because of the sign at the door.

His Majesty personally wrote the imperial decree, giving Shi Lidie enough face. More importantly, on that day in the court, all the civil and military officials heard His Majesty say with their own ears that Shi Lidie should not forget to brew wine for him.

How delicious would the wine be if it could make His Majesty never forget and always think about it?

They also want to have a try and follow in His Majesty’s footsteps!

Therefore, on the first day of opening of Shi Lidie's pub, the turnover reached an astonishing figure.

Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention that Shi Lidie increased the price in the capital by more than thirty times based on the price set by the tavern in Luoyun Town.

If the people of Luoyun Town buy wine at one tael of silver per catty, then people in the capital will have to pay thirty taels of silver per catty. Except when participating in activities, there are no discounts on a daily basis.

Do you want to ask her why?

It's so funny. How can the prices in Beijing and Shanghai be comparable to those in a small county town on the 18th tier?

This is the economic difference that cities bring.

Even if her wine was a little more expensive, the people in the capital would not complain if they knew it was a brand granted by the emperor and the wine had been drunk by the emperor. Instead, they would still be willing to buy it.

It’s a hit. Shi Lidie’s will sooner or later become the number one tavern and it’s completely popular.

The wine she brews is unique and there is no other like it in the capital; her shop is titled "the best in the world sooner or later" by His Majesty, which represents His Majesty's praise and expectations for her; her customers are all people of status.

Just like the star effect, if the superiors value something, the people below will follow suit.

So, at the end of the day, Shi Lidie counted money until her hands cramped.

Serious hand cramps.

In this way, Shi Lidie's tavern eventually became the number one tavern and successfully established itself in the capital.

This scene was seen by the people in the Earl's Mansion.

Mrs. Fang specially sent a servant to keep an eye on the tavern and report any situation in time. In the evening, she listened to the servant's story about Shi Lidie's opening of the tavern.

She had to admit that Shi Lidie did have some abilities.

But so what?

A daughter who was unwilling to share the same beliefs with her from the very beginning, a daughter who had never thought about tracing her roots from the beginning to the end, and a daughter who caused her to be scolded and reprimanded by her husband.

No matter how capable she is, she won't be fond of him.

"I understand. You may go down now." Mrs. Fang waved at the servant and asked him to leave.

Fang Ruoruo saw this and stepped forward and asked:

"What are your plans, mother?"

"I originally wanted to find someone to destroy her business, so that she couldn't open the tavern, and then force her into a corner, so that she would either come back to me for help or never recover." Mrs. Fang said, "But now it seems that this matter is not easy to handle."

"Yes, she is very capable. The activities held by the store are something my daughter has never heard of or seen before." Fang Ruoruo said, "But it happens that this approach is very effective. The dignitaries and bigwigs in the capital all hold money to show their support for her."

"Yes, ordinary methods don't work, so why don't we just let her die." Mrs. Fang said.

Fang Roruo widened her eyes, as if she didn't expect Mrs. Fang to make such a decision.

Mrs. Fang looked indifferent, as if she was talking about an irrelevant person:

"I underestimated her before. I thought she was from the countryside and easy to control. That's why I didn't press her step by step. Instead, I put us in a passive position."

"But now, if we let her grow up, things will be completely out of our control. If she really comes back, given your father's personality, he will definitely value her more than you. By then, you may not even be able to get the status of the Third Prince's Consort."

After hearing this, Fang Ruoruo nodded and said:

"Mother means that now is the best time to take action against her."

"Her tavern caused such a big stir in the capital, and it blocked the interests of so many people. It is understandable that some people wanted to kill her because they were blocked from making money and became jealous, right?"

Mrs. Fang smiled with satisfaction:

"As expected of my daughter, she is smart. I will leave this matter to you."

"can you do it?"

Fang Ruoruo bit her lip, made up her mind, and said, "I can do it!"

It was Shi Lidie who threatened his position, so Shi Lidie must be eliminated!

What's more, even Mrs. Fang, her biological mother, didn't want Shi Lidie to live, so what reason did she have to feel sad for Shi Lidie? She could only say that Shi Lidie had blocked her way, and she deserved it!

After Fang Ruoruo took on the task of being Mrs. Fang, she spent some time preparing.

Everything she learned from childhood to university taught her that she cannot act rashly and must know herself and her enemy in order to win every battle.

So Fang Ruoruo found out everything about Shi Lidie -

What is Shi Lidie's daily schedule like? Where does she go every day? Where is the best place to start?

What is the layout of the tavern? Is it easier to assassinate openly or to poison?

How many servants, maids, and old women are there in the county lady's mansion? Is the guard strict? Are there any palace soldiers? How strong are the palace soldiers? What are the patrol routes?

Is there anyone with great martial arts skills around Shi Lidie?

……

After Fang Ruoruo's all-round and multi-angle inquiries, she got a clear picture of Shi Lidie.

Finally, she made a plan to kill Shi Lidie:

In the middle of the night, in the County Lady's Mansion, several experts were sent directly to her bedroom to assassinate her!

The reason for this arrangement was that Fang Ruoruo discovered that compared to the crowded tavern and the public streets, the County Lady's Mansion was actually the easiest place to take action.

I don’t know if the emperor forgot or what, but there were no soldiers or guards in the county princess’s mansion.

Apart from Shi Lidie, there were only some maids, servants and boys in the entire mansion.

But as soon as night fell, except for those on duty, everyone else went back to their rooms to sleep. Moreover, the servants' room was far away from the main courtyard where Shi Lidie lived. Even if something really happened, it would be a bit hasty for them to rush over.

As long as the masters she sent out were strong enough to kill Shi Lidie in a short period of time, then no matter whether the servants could arrive in time or not, they would not be able to save Shi Lidie.
