Female-to-male: I live on farming

After listening to Qin Ke's explanation of the design quietly, Gu Lanxi asked the key question: "In this case, how do you plan to distribute the benefits of the bathhouse?"

She threw the question in front of Qin Ke, testing his thoughts.

Qin Ke naturally had a plan for this problem a long time ago. Although he was the one who came up with the blueprints and ideas, the Gu family would provide all the manpower and resources for site selection, construction, and operation.

And most importantly, the bathhouse is backed by the Gu family's reputation. If he were to run this business himself, it would probably be taken over by jealous people in no time.

Seeing that he took the initiative to make concessions, Gu Lanxi couldn't help but look sideways.

Seeing that she was a little surprised, Qin Ke took the initiative to explain: "After the imperial examination, my wife and I will return to Qinghe Village. After all, you still have to send someone to take over this bathhouse. I just want a share of the profits."

There was no reason to refuse the money that was offered to her. Gu Lanxi felt at ease with the dividends. However, she became interested in what Qin Ke had just said and asked curiously, "Are you planning to keep farming?"

All men in the world want to achieve great things and accomplish something. This person could obviously seek better development, but instead he prefers to stay in the village and farm.

"I haven't thought too much about the future for now. Anyway, I'll go wherever my wife goes." Qin Ke shrugged, not feeling that he was too obsessed with his wife.

A big part of the reason why he chose to stay in Qinghe Village and continue farming was because of the existence of the system. The system said that the issuance of tasks was closely related to his situation, and he also needed to earn system points.

On the other hand, he really wanted to try his best to improve the difficult living environment in ancient times, and food is the most important thing for people, so farming is indeed his main task at present.

As for the future, he is well aware that plans are not as good as changes, so he will take it one step at a time.

Gu Lanxi smiled slightly, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, but she did not intend to reveal her and Jin Yang's plan to the other party. This person does have some ability, but at present, it is far from enough for them to fully trust. You know, what Jin Yang is doing is extremely dangerous, and the slightest mistake may lead to eternal damnation.

This person needs further observation and testing.

After Qin Ke received Gu Lanxi's investment, he began to prepare for construction. Since it is not yet winter and the ground has not frozen solid, the sooner the construction starts the better, so that it can be put into use this winter.

Gu Zhong was completely assigned to him by Gu Lanxi. Every day after Qin Ke drove a carriage to send Lu Youqing to the academy at dawn, he took Gu Zhong to prepare for the bathhouse. Gu Zhong first took him to the Gu family's shops and properties to choose whether there was a suitable mansion.

After wandering around for a morning, Qin Ke decided on a courtyard of the Gu family facing the street. There were four or five courtyards in it, covering a large area and of just about the same size. Most importantly, the backyard was connected to a river, making it very convenient to get water.

Now that the address had been chosen, construction began. Gu Lanxi sent him craftsmen who specialized in construction projects. With both money and people, Qin Ke enjoyed working on such a project.

With craftsmen in charge of monitoring the progress of the construction, Qin Ke began to design the interior soft furnishings. Chairs, coffee tables, and green plant decorations were easy to design, as they were already available locally. He only needed to find carpenters to order them.

But mahjong needs to be specially made, so he had to draw the pattern of each mahjong tile and then give it to the craftsmen to make. Fortunately, his mother was fond of playing mahjong in his previous life, and he was very familiar with it since he was a child, so it was not difficult for him to draw the patterns.

However, Qin Ke also spent a lot of effort on the material of mahjong. With the current level of craftsmanship, the materials are nothing more than bones, solid wood or jade.

Since it was a pastime prepared for the VIP room, the bones were too low quality and not up to standard. In the end, Gu Lanxi waved his hand and asked him to make a pair of solid wood and jade, opened the door of the warehouse and asked Gu Zhong to take him a very large piece of jade raw material.

Qin Ke looked at the piece of raw jade and twitched his lips.

It turns out that he is rich and powerful, and he, a mortal, is still too narrow-minded.

He secretly gave Gu Lanxi a thumbs up from behind. He felt that even if he said he wanted to make one with gold, the other party would be able to bring out a box of gold without changing his expression.

Qin Ke thought about it and finally added a children's playground inside. Since it was built specifically for children, it was extremely delicate and elegant. Qin Ke also moved out the facilities commonly seen in children's entertainment venues, such as slides, wooden horses, and swings that he had seen in his previous life.

In this way, not only young ladies and ladies can come, but they can also bring their children with them. A separate entrance and exit will be set up for the bathhouse facing the civilians to avoid conflicts with those distinguished guests.

When the construction was almost completed, Qin Ke discussed the opening with Gu Lanxi and suggested that she could give out bath tickets in Caiyue Tower and other Gu family shops. As long as the consumption exceeded a certain amount, a bathhouse pass could be given, especially for old customers with a certain background in the shop.

The bathhouse can also provide private booking services, allowing dignitaries to come here to entertain guests.

Besides this, Qin Ke also used the advertising gimmick from his previous life and posted notices on the street in advance. In order to prevent illiterate people from reading, he also had a servant knocking a gong to promote their soon-to-be-opened bathhouse, which not only provided bathing, but also entertainment, leisure and a variety of delicious food.

The simple ancients had never seen such a scene before, so they immediately surrounded the place in three layers, and asked it all kinds of questions.

So the "Yaochi Fairy Bath" has not yet opened. Yes, Yaochi Fairy Bath is the name of the bathhouse. Such a high-sounding name is certainly not given by Qin Ke. This is a plaque sent by Gu Lanxi. It has been hyped up in the city and everyone knows it. Ordinary people are full of curiosity about it, especially since some people have noticed that the bathhouse has been under construction and want to find out more.

The aristocratic class had also heard of it, especially those dignitaries who often went to Caiyue Tower for dinner. Many of them had received invitations from Yaochi Xianyu.

When they heard that the threshold for entering the VIP area of ​​Yao Chi Xian Yu was very high and that it was difficult to get in without a high status or a recommendation from a regular customer, their curiosity was aroused.

This kind of place that can show off one's status and position indirectly satisfies their vanity.

Qin Ke's combination of punches instantly raised its status a lot. Even before it opened, Gu Lanxi had already foreseen how popular Yao Chi Fairy Bath would be.

After this incident, she became even more curious about Qin Ke. How could he come up with such novel ideas so often? His methods and strategies were even better than those of the most experienced shopkeeper under her.

Qin Ke was simply applying the marketing methods that were ubiquitous in his previous life. Seeing that things were almost arranged, Qin Ke let go and handed over the management to Gu Lanxi, concentrating on taking care of Lu Youqing.

Because the day of the imperial examination is coming soon.
