Quick Transmigration: The Carefree Life of a Background Character

She plans to open a shop called Baiqiao Linglong Pavilion, which specializes in auctioning ingenious and rare trinkets, jewelry, and other unusual items.

So she extended an olive branch to Song Zhiwen, intending to ask him to help manage the shop.

In the past few days, she has taken Qingyun and Qingshu to explore the entire city of Luo. She discovered that in this era, there are no auctions, only pawn shops.

Most people's jewelry is made of gold and silver, and some are made of jade. Although some are exquisitely crafted and can be considered masterpieces, the overall style is still rather monotonous.

Compared to the ancient craftsmanship, the jewelry in her space—pearls, jade, white jade, diamonds, and so on—is far more diverse and varied.

However, her space contained many more modern items, such as various kinds of liquor, fruit wine, wine, paper, watches, crystal balls, dressing mirrors, lamps, tissues, paper towels, girls' cosmetics, perfumes...

She could put it up for auction. Things are valued for their rarity; any modern item would fetch a good price at auction.

As for whether her act of bringing out these modern things will have any impact on this era?

Please, what impact can this have?

Could the rule of feudal emperors be overthrown? No!

Will it cause any harm to this era? No!

At most, it will only make life a little more convenient for some people in this world, and these "some people" are limited to a group of "upper-class elites".

An auction is held once a month, on the sixteenth of each month.

Only five items will be auctioned at a time.

It's something that circulates in a very small circle, so what kind of impact could it have?

After all, these are rare items. Scarcity marketing is a very simple business tactic. It involves auctioning them off to the highest bidder, and the store can be closed for the rest of the time.

In addition to the items she puts up for auction, she can also help others consign items they want to auction, taking a cut in the process.

Upon hearing Ziyue's idea, Song Zhiwen couldn't help but admire her great talent, showering her with praise and expressing his gratitude repeatedly.

He felt that he had met the most important person in his life today. With free room and board and a monthly salary of 50 taels, he agreed without hesitation.

So Ziyue told him to rest at home first, and to come to her Yue Mansion to report to her three days later.

Now that the shop was ready to open and the manager was in place, she took Qingyun and Qingshu to the human teeth market and bought ten servants.

There were six men and four women in total. The requirement was that the women had some cooking skills. Two of them stayed at the Yue Mansion to cook, do laundry, clean rooms, etc., while the other two stayed at the shop to help the staff cook and clean.

She planned to have two of the men, who were tall and strong and skilled in martial arts, work as bodyguards, and the other four, who were more clever, help out in the shop.

Ziyue sent Qingyun and Qingshu back to the mansion to wash up and tidy up, while she went alone to Qili Street and arrived at a shop in a very good location that she had chosen in advance.

It's quite close to Qilixiang Restaurant and Penglaiju Inn, only a few dozen meters away.

Excellent location for a prime shop.

To the left of this shop is a pastry shop, and to the right is a teahouse. The shopkeeper was planning to sell the shop, and Ziyue spent two thousand taels of gold to buy it from the shopkeeper.

The shop has five floors. It was originally an inn and occupies a fairly large area of ​​about 600 square meters. There is also a two-courtyard house with about 20 rooms. The shop's staff can stay here.

She plans to hire someone to renovate the place, build a large platform on the first floor to display the auction items, and prepare some tables and chairs, as well as tea and snacks.

The shop's former owner helped contact a construction team, and Ziyue paid them extra to expedite the renovations before heading home.

The shop was renovated in about a month.

Today is the first day of Baiqiao Linglong Pavilion's opening.

By this time, the shop entrance was bustling with people.

Ziyue had already instructed people to promote her Linglong Pavilion, spreading the word about the store's operating hours and auction items, which had already attracted a lot of attention in Luocheng.

After all, people are still curious about such a whimsical shop, its business model, its operating hours, and the rare items that everyone talks about. So when the shop opened, everyone was willing to come and join in the fun.

Above the entrance, the plaque of "Baiqiao Linglong Pavilion" is grand and gilded. The couplets on the left and right sides of the entrance read: "The four walls shine with gold and jade, vying for splendor; the treasures of nature gather treasures from heaven." The horizontal inscription reads: "Guests come naturally."

Wow!! That banner is pretty arrogant! Many people think this shop is exaggerating too much; they're curious to see what good stuff they have!!

Therefore, many people came with the intention of being proven wrong.

Ziyue's idea was that people could come or not, but those who needed it, those who knew its value, and those who were curious would naturally come.

Once the name of Baiqiao Linglong Pavilion was established, she wasn't worried about not having customers.

Upon entering the gate, the first thing that catches the eye is a huge artificial rockery with flowing water. Ziyue even used some chemicals to create an ethereal and otherworldly atmosphere.

Guests are drawn to the door even before they enter.

This is a very simple chemical reaction, but the ancients had never seen it before, and they all gathered around the door as if they were watching a Western spectacle.

You can enter from either side of the artificial rockery. Once inside, the hall is very spacious.

There are 30 tables and chairs made of Phoebe zhennan wood in the hall, and a high platform in front with five glass display cases.

However, it was now lightly veiled by a layer of green gauze, like looking at flowers through fog, and the crowd could not see the situation inside the platform very clearly.

There is a raised platform at the very front of the stage that is not obstructed, which is used to display the auction items to the public more closely.

The entire hall was spacious and bright.

Standing in the hall and looking up, you can see that the railings are all carved from bluestone, and there are four white marble pillars standing at the four corners of the hall.

The walls and windows are decorated with carved beams and painted rafters, and the floor is made of white marble, so shiny that it reflects light.

The light blue gauze curtains swayed in the wind, catching the eye of every customer who entered.

There are ten private rooms on the second and third floors, each with a different design style. Ziyue kept the fifth floor for herself, as she really liked the decor there.

Everything here was arranged according to her wishes, prioritizing comfort and convenience. Therefore, she preferred the environment here to the Yue Mansion.

The fifth floor has one master bedroom, five guest bedrooms, a washroom, a bathroom, a study, and a small kitchen.

After all, she planned to stay here permanently.

The fourth floor is a storage room, with excellent security measures, multiple checkpoints, and numerous traps. Without someone of your own leading the way, it would be difficult to escape unscathed.

But this is just for show; the actual items are all in her personal space, which is completely empty.

As the guests took their seats, the first auction at Baiqiao Linglong Pavilion officially began—
