After traveling through time, I thrived in ancient times
Chapter 74 The Queen Mother is Angry
Yu Tingwan had observed the 16 shops he owned, and found that few of them made money! Of those that did, the money they made was not enough to satisfy Yu Tingwan.
In the end, they simply closed all the stores and upgraded and renovated them all.
Jinxiu Pavilion had decent profits, so it changed its name to "Wan Qingsi" and connected the shops next to it. It no longer specialized in selling jewelry, but sold jewelry together with rouge and powder.
Yu Tingwan observed the accessories of this dynasty and found that the colors tended to be elegant, so he decided to make accessories go the boutique route, create a variety of accessory styles, launch a treasure of the store, and create unique accessories!
Selling rouge and powder together is also a marketing strategy of Yu Tingwan. For accessories, especially headwear, only by wearing them on a person can you see whether they are really suitable and whether they can make people fall in love with them.
Of course, the same goes for rouge and powder.
Therefore, Yu Tingwan expanded the store and created a private makeup-trying area. Not only does she want to try on makeup, she also wants to launch skin care products, providing a one-stop service for skin care, makeup trials, and jewelry trials.
Yu Tingwan also connected the food store opposite Jinxiu Pavilion and the grocery store next to it. The two stores were merged into one, converted into a clothing store, named "Meng Qiannian", with private dressing rooms, specializing in ready-made clothes and private customization.
It just so happened that these four shops were located together, two of which were originally her mother's dowry shops, and two were given to her by the Jiang family.
Just because they were close to each other and convenient to manage, they were all given to Yu Tingwan. This made it easier for Yu Tingwan to attract traffic!
There is another important shop, which Yu Tingwan cooperates with Qianhelou. It is a wine shop that originally sells wine, but the wine in this shop does not have its own characteristics.
Moreover, the alcohol content of alcohol in this era was not high, and the so-called strong liquor was only about ten degrees at most.
Therefore, Yu Tingwan prepared to brew his own wine, and moved the high-proof liquor from his previous life, as well as various fruit wines, medicinal wines, distilled liquors, etc. to the Da Sheng Dynasty.
We will then cooperate with Qianhelou and open a business together to let people of this era have a taste of what it means to be knocked out in one cup!
The name of this tavern was named "Zui Xiang Ming" by Yu Tingwan!
These are the shops that Yu Tingwan currently believes will make the most money, but he is not in a hurry for the rest.
The main function of these shops is to make money, while the other shops have their own uses, and she still has to do what she is good at.
However, Yu Tingwan, who originally wanted to open his own clinic, has now changed his mind. It is much easier to find someone to cooperate with than to work alone.
She already has a candidate for this cooperation!
While Yu Tingwan and Qianhelou were busy, the Empress Dowager in the palace was about to explode with anger!
"Is this how you do things? My personal nanny has been dead for a long time, and her murderer has not been found yet! If I was killed, would you just say she hanged herself and get away with it?"
"The Queen Mother calm down!"
Everyone kneeling on the ground shouted in unison.
But he didn't dare to say anything else, just complaining in his heart.
What the hell is this!
The nanny and the others had asked the coroner to perform the autopsy several times, but there was no sign of homicide. Even the little palace maid who happened to see him was almost tortured, but she still gave the same confession as before.
In this case, unless they were tortured into confessing and directly saying that it was the palace maid who killed the nanny, where would they find the murderer?
Moreover, why did the Queen Mother determine that Nanny Li was murdered rather than committing suicide?
Another Nanny Zhang beside the Empress Dowager waved her hand for everyone to leave. After everyone had left, Nanny Zhang walked to the Empress Dowager and gently pressed her forehead with her hand.
"Queen, I know that you are sad about Madam Li's death. How can I not be sad too?"
"But Madam, you must take care of yourself and never hurt yourself because of us servants. Otherwise, Madam Li will not be at peace in her grave."
The Queen Mother knew it very well, but her anger was not entirely because of Matron Li, but because Matron Li was the most capable matron around her. If she lost her ability to use poison, it would be like cutting off a strong arm. Of course the Queen Mother felt upset!
That would have been fine, but yesterday she received a letter from her brother, Prime Minister Wen, saying that something had happened at home, but he didn't say what it was.
As a result, he learned today that his nephew Wen Yue was reported this morning. It was said that there was a bandit problem in Peichi County, Kangzhou County. However, Wen Yue, as the local official, did not eliminate the bandit problem, nor did he take care of the affected people in the first time.
People of Wen Chengxing's lineage tried their best to excuse Wen Yue, saying that Wen Yue had worked diligently in the local area and that banditry had been a long-standing problem, and there was no way that Wen Yue, a civil official, could defeat the banditry.
Therefore, I think this matter is excusable. The most important thing now is to eliminate the banditry as soon as possible and restore peace to the people.
But the other party kept on pestering Wen Yue and refused to give in. The two sides argued endlessly in the court, and finally a temporary truce was reached when the emperor got angry.
The Queen Mother had a headache over this matter for the whole morning. This matter seemed easy to solve, but she was afraid that someone would do something else. Now they were far away and they couldn't do anything. If something happened to Wen Yue again, the Wen family would suffer!
After thinking for a long time, the empress dowager couldn't come up with a good solution. She could only let the matter go for the time being. After all, she had her brother around, so there was always a way.
"By the way, how are the preparations for this year's flower viewing banquet going?"
Seeing that the Empress Dowager was finally willing to ask something else, Nanny Zhang was relieved and quickly replied:
"Don't worry, Queen Mother. The Queen is preparing for the flower viewing banquet."
"Yes." The Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. I always trust the Queen to do things. By the way, you have to invite the Princess of Chen to the palace. After all, she is the daughter-in-law of the royal family. She must meet the women of the capital."
Thinking of what happened before, the Queen Mother's eyes flashed with contemplation. I wonder if that medicine...
When the news of Nanny Li's death came, the first people the empress dowager thought of were Yu Tingwan and the other. It was such a coincidence that Nanny Li died just a few days after they entered the palace.
Besides, there was something on the bracelet that I gave as a gift. Could it be that thing was discovered?
But then I thought about it and felt it was impossible. If he was really discovered, with Prince Chen's temperament, how could it be as simple as just killing a maid?
It was for this reason that she gave up the idea of summoning Yu Tingwan into the palace.
However, it’s time to go to the flower viewing banquet!
Yu Tingwan has been busy in the mansion these days.
Yu Tingwan had already given Ji Shaoan the decoration drawings of several shops and Qianhe Tower. This was actually an accident.
Originally, Yu Tingwan wanted to find someone to do it herself, but two days ago, Ji Shaoan came to visit her and when he talked about this matter, he took the initiative to suggest that the Ji family had manpower that could be used by the princess.
Yu Tingwan didn't want to take care of these things in person, so he just threw the design drawings to Ji Shaoan and asked him to supervise, and he had some free time!
