Of course, he had to practice martial arts and do business. He just had to prioritize.
If one was strong enough, as long as they waved their hands, money would naturally come knocking. Without strength, even if one had tens of thousands of wealth, it would only be an illusion.
Furthermore, the deeper he cultivated, the more money he needed to spend. The income from the inn was currently Su Xuan's main source of income.
can not be abandoned
Therefore, he had to think of a way to get the best of both worlds. He could save a lot of time to cultivate and earn money at the same time.
"Looking at the sky, I'm afraid it will snow in a few days.”
Su Xuan retracted his gaze. The autumn wind blew in from outside, bringing with it a bone-chilling chill.
He lit a charcoal fire, boiled some water, and made a cup of hot tea. He lay on the chair, drank the tea, and read the story.
However, he was thinking of a way to get the best of both worlds.
"If you want to save time, you have to take fewer business and raise the price.”
He muttered,"We can try hunger marketing."”
"For example, limit the number of tables per day, then increase the price and choose some good materials.”
Rubbing his chin, Su Xuan smiled brightly.""Let's do that."
"From now on, we will only take ten tables of customers every day. Five tables at noon and five tables at night.”
Ten tables of dishes was not a difficult thing for him. This way, he could ensure that his monthly income would not change, and he could save a lot of time.
He first prepared the plaque and hung it out at dawn. Then, he took a copper pot and placed it on the stove.
After eating and drinking his fill of mutton hotpot, he practiced his swordsmanship until late at night. After bathing and changing his clothes, he returned to his room and sat cross-legged to cultivate his Qi.
He had lived this life for half a year.
"It's snowing."
"It's snowing."
As the sky lit up, the sound of children cheering could be heard from outside. The door of the inn opened. Su Xuan was wearing a thin robe, but he did not feel cold.
At his current realm, his Qi and blood were strong, and he was impervious to cold and heat. The streets and roofs were covered in thick snow.
As far as the eye could see, the entire ancient town, as well as the mountains and rivers in the distance, were all submerged in white.
"Pa!"
He hung the plaque he had prepared on the pillar in front of the door. On it were eight big words, painted with iron and hooked with silver.
"Ten tables a day."
"As soon as they're sold out."
As soon as the plaque was hung up, it attracted the attention of many pedestrians. In the past six months, the reputation of Shangru Inn could be said to be well-known in Qixia Town.
"What happened?"
Shopkeeper Zhou from East Street looked at the plaque and asked in puzzlement,""Isn't Shopkeeper Lyu's business quite good? Why did you suddenly change?"
"Yes, as long as it's open, the business will be full every day.”
"Why are you only selling ten tables now?"
"Isn't this going against money?"
The crowd discussed animatedly.
"Shopkeepers."
Su Xuan smiled." There's too much business and I can't handle it, so I changed the rules. In the future, if you want to eat, you have to be quick. If you're late, you won't be able to make it. Of course, you can also inform me in advance and reserve a table.”
This was equivalent to completely abandoning ordinary people and turning customers into rich people.
Hearing this, the shopkeepers looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
Other people complained that their business was too bad, but this person actually complained that his business was too good.
Comparing people was really infuriating.
The passers-by in the neighborhood were just watching the show and soon dispersed. It was a pity that it would be difficult to eat Shopkeeper Lyu's dishes in the future.
Of course, there were also many people who criticized him. If he did business like this, it would not be long before his reputation would be ruined.
It would be a lie to say that no one was envious. They were all shopkeepers on the same street. In the past six months, they had seen Su Xuan's business getting better and better, and he was earning more and more money. Everyone was envious.
Now that Su Xuan was digging his own roots, these people were prepared to see him make a fool of himself.
"The Primordial Chaos True Qi returns to the Sea of Qi. It is formless, intangible, and illusory.”
"Qi is born from the flesh and blood. Nurturing Qi requires nourishing the blood first.”
After reaching the fifth level of the Art of the Origin, one needed to cultivate both internal and external martial arts, and there were two external martial arts.
They were Golden Shattering Palm and Broken Jade Finger respectively. The palm and finger techniques were not very profound, but the mysterious part was that they perfectly displayed the characteristics of Primordial Chaos True Qi.
It was thick and flawless, unmoving like a mountain, and moving like thunder and waves. It had to be combined with the Mixed Yuan Art above the fifth level to unleash its full power.
Su Xuan sat on a chair behind the counter and gestured with his hands as he read the Hunyuan Art manual.
He pinched his palms and fingers at times, trying to figure out how to exert his strength and circulate his Qi.
"Shopkeeper Lyu."
A man dressed in constable uniform stood at the entrance of the inn and shouted. He had a long saber hanging from his waist. He was about 30 to 40 years old and looked a little wretched.
It was Xing Yusen, the Arrester of Qixia Town.
"Old Xing, what is it?"
Su Xuan poked his head out from behind the counter.
Xing Yusen walked in with a smile on his face."Shopkeeper Lyu, the yamen has issued a notice for all the shops to prepare the tax money in the next few days.”
"Yes, I know."
Su Xuan nodded.
Two months ago, Big Mouth Li, the leader of the four big bad hunters in Guanzhong, came to stir up trouble. In the end, he was ruthlessly cleaned up by him.
From then on, the bad cop didn't dare to appear in front of him anymore. Old Xing was the one who informed him about everything in the yamen.
"Oh right, there's one more thing."
The smile on Old Xing's face disappeared and was replaced by a solemn look.""Last month, a group of bandits fled to our Guanzhong area and committed crimes one after another. They took many lives and were very fierce.
The Guangyang Prefecture government issued a notice, asking them to pay more attention.”
"The business of the inn is good, and people of all walks of life will come and go. Perhaps they will become the target of these bandits.”
After that, Xing Yusen went to the other shops to deliver the notice.
"Bandits?"
Su Xuan narrowed his eyes, not taking it to heart.
If someone really dared to scheme against him, he did not mind letting the Green Bamboo Sword see blood.
At noon, the inn began to serve customers. They originally thought that business would not be good after the rules were changed.
Unexpectedly, business was even better than usual. There was even a long queue outside the inn.
The original plan was to have five tables in the afternoon and five tables in the evening. All of them were sold out by noon.
"Everyone, today's food and wine are sold out.”
After waiting for the customers in the lobby to finish eating, Su Xuan walked out of the inn and cupped his fists at the people queuing outside.""This shop is about to close. If you want to eat, come early tomorrow.”
"What do you mean?"
Someone was immediately dissatisfied.
"So we waited for half a day and it's gone.”
"Shopkeeper Lyu, you're not being fair.”
"Which inn doesn't do business?”
"That's right."
。。。。
"Everyone."
Su Xuan's expression didn't change as he pointed at the plaque beside him and said loudly,""I have to say this first. Please forgive me."
