Dressing as Ziwei makes the Qing Dynasty more powerful
Chapter 107 Punishing Diao Nu
After enjoying a lively lunch with the Ulanara family, Ziwei left contentedly with Du Ruolan.
At this time, the beautifully decorated carriage did not drive straight to the Lama Temple, but instead slowly moved towards the most prosperous and bustling street in the capital. Almost all the shops given to her by the queen were located on this bustling street.
"Princess, have you decided what kind of business you want to run?" Du Ruolan peered curiously through the screened window. The streets of the capital were bustling with people, and shops of all kinds were scattered across the city, a dazzling array of businesses. The fierce competition was self-evident.
Ziwei smiled slightly upon hearing this and said softly, "Sister Du, actually, I still prefer to hear you call me Sister Ziwei! We are outside now, so why be so reserved?"
After a brief pause, she continued, "Let's start by selling milk tea. After all, the cost of making milk tea is relatively low, and the profit is quite considerable. It can help us quickly accumulate a considerable amount of funds!"
However, Ziwei's ambitions went far beyond this. She had countless ideas waiting to be realized, each requiring substantial financial support. Simply relying on the milk tea business was clearly not enough.
Fortunately, in her previous life, she had a special liking for milk tea and even studied the recipe of a well-known brand in depth. This recipe was not only simple to use, but also served as the perfect prelude to her entrepreneurial journey!
"Milk tea? Can this thing really be sold? You know, high-quality tea is very expensive, and not everyone likes that unique taste." Du Ruolan frowned slightly, with a worried look on her face.
Her family was well-off, and during the cold winter, she would occasionally ask her servants to make some milk tea for her to enjoy. However, only tea carefully brewed with high-quality tea leaves could effectively cover up the fishy smell in the milk. This was very expensive and not really a cost-effective move.
"Don't worry, Sister Du. This kind of milk tea I'm talking about is loved by everyone, young and old, men and women alike," Ziwei said confidently, her mind racing with all sorts of milk tea flavors. With so many varieties of milk tea, even if someone wanted to emulate it, it would be difficult to replicate it completely.
As they were talking, the carriage slowly stopped in front of a shop next to Longyuan Building, and Ziwei jumped down from the carriage nimbly.
This shop, a teahouse with two floors, was only mediocre in business. This was mainly because the Longyuanlou next door also served tea, and since it was owned by the Prince, the tea they used was of the highest quality.
However, due to her special status, the Queen had many difficulties leaving the palace, so she could not manage all aspects of her business. Because of this, it was inevitable that some opportunists and sly people would appear in the store.
When the two entered, the shopkeeper came up to them and said lazily, "What would you two girls like to drink? We have all kinds of tea in our shop."
"Pour a pot of the best tea you sell."
The decoration of the teahouse is very ordinary, no different from that of ordinary shops. The chairs and benches are also very old, which affects your mood just by looking at them.
The tea came up soon, but Ziwei only took a sip and spat it out. The bitter taste made it difficult for her to swallow.
Looking at the shopkeeper who had retreated behind the counter, she sternly scolded him, "What kind of tea are you serving? How dare you sell something so vulgar? No wonder business is so bleak."
The shopkeeper hadn't been scolded like this in a long time, especially since she was a weak woman. She squinted her eyes and shouted, "Do you know whose business this is? How dare you speak so arrogantly here? This is top-grade tea. Don't be ignorant of its value."
Songyue walked in from the door, grabbed his collar and brought him to Ziwei, then kicked him, and the shopkeeper fell to his knees with a thud.
"You little dog slave, you dare to disrespect Princess Gulun? You're courting death!"
The shopkeeper was shocked. There were only two Princesses of the Gulun clan in the current dynasty. One of them married to Mongolia, and the one in front of him was the Princess of the Gulun clan Zichen who had just been canonized!
It’s over, he actually offended his new master.
He kowtowed and begged for mercy.
"You don't need to beg for mercy. I have already checked the store's accounts. You must return all the money you embezzled, otherwise—"
Ziwei slammed the cup of tea in front of him, splashing a lot of tea on his face and body. "You've run such a good shop like this. You really deserve the trust of the Empress Dowager. From today on, you don't need to come here anymore."
The shopkeeper ignored the debris on the ground and continued to kowtow, tears and snot streaming down his face. "Princess, no! I have elderly parents and young children to support, and my family is large. They all rely on my little money to make a living. I have always been loyal and have never been greedy. Business is not good in the store, so even if I wanted to, I couldn't be greedy!"
"Shut up! Your parents passed away a long time ago, and you only have one daughter. You don't have any close relatives. Besides, you moved into your new home six months ago. The house has three courtyards, right? Since you're unwilling to give it up voluntarily, then go to the Jingzhao Yin and explain it slowly!"
Song Yue grabbed him and walked out. This action directly broke the shopkeeper's defense, "Princess, spare my life. I am willing to sell the house to repay the money. I really can't go to jail——"
Ziwei waved her hand, Songyue nodded and took the person away.
"I didn't expect that there would be such a cunning slave in the capital, and this is under the feet of the emperor." Du Ruolan shook her head. Some people are just bold and confused.
Ziwei chuckled, "People like this are everywhere. Let's not talk about them. Let's talk about the decoration of this store first. I think..."
She stood up and began to explain her decoration ideas to Du Ruolan, which received Du Ruolan's praise.
"The princess's idea is truly unique. The decoration alone is miles ahead of other tea shops. Drinking tea in such a beautiful shop makes me feel much better. Business is sure to be booming."
"Sister Du, this is nothing. In the future, our business will be expanded to all parts of the Qing Dynasty, and maybe even to foreign countries."
Du Ruolan...
This idea was so big, so big that she didn't even dare to think about it.
