Chapter 138: The Number One Scholar Building and the Number One Scholar Ceremony
Time flies!
In the blink of an eye, the imperial edict for the promotion of the Shu County Sheriff came to Shu County along with the Shu County Sheriff.
Also brought back was the appointment letter of the new county governor.
Not surprisingly, the newly appointed Shu County Sheriff is none other than the former Shu County Sheriff’s sister-in-law, Wei An!
As soon as this news spread, many people in Shu County beat their chests and felt angry.
You know, the position of governor of Shu County is a bad one, and many people have been eyeing this position!
What a pity.
Even though these people tried their best, they still couldn't win over Wei An in the end.
When the news reached the Su family, Su Baiyu behaved quite calmly.
In fact, he had expected this result!
"Even if Wei An takes over as the governor of Shu County, it will not affect my plan!"
"Zhou Peirong, your fate has already been determined!"
Thinking like this, Su Baiyu couldn't wait to see Zhou Peirong bowing his head and begging for mercy as soon as possible.
On the other hand, Zhou Peirong was not affected by the transfer of power in Shu County.
The congratulatory gift for the county governor has been delivered. Zhou Peirong only needs to wait quietly and see the governor off when he leaves. This matter has nothing to do with him at all.
As for whether he will have any interaction with the Lord Sheriff in the future, that will be decided later.
Right now, all Zhou Peirong has to do is to assist Wei An and take control of the entire Shu County as soon as possible.
But in this case, the protagonist is Wei An.
If someone didn't need it, of course Zhou Peirong wouldn't take the initiative to join in.
So now, most of Zhou Peirong's attention is still on his own business.
The time has come to March, and it is the imperial examination time again.
Zhou Peirong felt that he could just seize this opportunity and open his own high-end customized restaurant.
In his previous life, Zhou Peirong was often tortured by the so-called college entrance banquets, and an unknown amount of his family money was squandered.
But the so-called entrance banquet was actually nothing outstanding.
It's not like Blue Star's heyday in the Tang Dynasty, when the entrance banquet was a truly outstanding banquet.
What Zhou Peirong wants to open is a restaurant that customizes high-end banquets.
Zhou Peirong has been brewing this idea for a long time.
So when it was put into practice, it was naturally extremely smooth.
In just half a month, Zhou Peirong's custom-made restaurant has officially opened.
But because the custom-made restaurant was too special, the restaurant's business was not booming after it opened.
Quite the opposite.
Starting from Zhou Peirong to the waiters in the restaurant, everyone is very relaxed.
And this also attracted ridicule from many people.
"Haha, you open a restaurant in such a high-profile manner, and it's a custom-made restaurant, but in the end you don't have a single customer. It's really embarrassing!"
"I have heard about the owner of this restaurant! His name is Zhou Peirong, and he has been very powerful recently! And I also heard that the person standing behind him is the governor of Shu County!"
"So what if there is support from the county guard? If the restaurant has no business, it means there is no business. I'll just wait and see when this restaurant will close down!"
Of course!
Those who can say such things are just ordinary people.
In their view, a restaurant is just a restaurant, just a place to eat.
If there are no customers in a dining place, what’s the point of opening it?
But in the eyes of some knowledgeable people, Zhou Peirong's high-end restaurant marketing model is still very innovative and worth learning.
In a teahouse affiliated with the Yun family.
Yun Meng, the eldest elder of the Yun family, was sitting upright on a chair, looking at the restaurant opposite, his eyes full of emotion and admiration.
"The day for the results of the college examination is approaching! Those who like to get a lucky shot will most likely go to Zhou Peirong's restaurant and customize a banquet to celebrate!"
"The business of Zhou Peirong's restaurant will become popular very soon."
"I have to say, this young man Zhou Peirong is amazing!"
"Indeed! In terms of creativity alone, among the younger generations of our big families, no one can match us!"
Li Wenhui, the eldest elder of the Li family, also nodded in agreement.
Although the Yun family and the Li family are hostile, this does not affect the relationship between the two elderly people.
They would often get together and talk about the major and minor affairs of Shu County.
In recent times, what the two of them have talked about the most is Zhou Peirong and his ‘Zhuangyuan Building’.
That’s right!
The name of Zhou Peirong's high-end custom restaurant is called Zhuangyuan Building.
"Just the name of this restaurant is a huge blessing."
"I feel that many ambitious students will definitely not refuse to spend some money to come to the Zhuangyuan Building to seek fortune."
Yun Meng took a sip of tea and sighed with emotion again.
"Zhou Peirong is also a young man who knows how to behave!"
"Not only did he give the restaurant a good name, but he also prepared a number one gift for every guest who ordered a banquet."
"His intentions are quite commendable!"
Li Wenhui took out a piece of bamboo paper from somewhere and read the contents on it carefully.
What is recorded on this piece of bamboo paper is exactly all the items included in the ‘No. 1 Scholar’s Gift’.
"A knife made of bamboo paper, a set of No. 1 Scholar uniforms, a bundle of firecrackers, and a good news of three yuan a pair!"
"Bamboo paper and No. 1 Scholar's uniform are nothing, but this firecracker also has a good news of three yuan..."
Li Wenhui handed the paper in his hand to Yunmeng, and a questioning voice came from his mouth.
"Brother, do you know what these two things are?"
"Firecrackers are bamboo, as for what this good news three yuan is..."
Yun Meng looked at the paper in his hand and shook his head slightly.
"I don't even know what this thing is!"
"or……"
Yun Meng narrowed his eyes slightly and gave Li Wenhui a questioning look.
"Your Li family asked a junior who just happened to take the college entrance examination to book a banquet?"
"Brother, aren't you?"
The corners of Li Wenhui's mouth twitched and he looked at Wen Hui with helpless eyes.
"Just to find out what's in this No. 1 Scholar gift, you have to ask someone to book a table?"
"You know, this guy Zhou Peirong is currently in a hostile relationship with our three families!"
"Aren't you afraid of the dissatisfaction of the juniors in your family by cheering up the enemy like this?"
"They dare!"
Yun Meng glared, and the old man's aura was immediately revealed by him.
"Yes, as long as you are happy!"
Li Wenhui did not persuade Yun Meng anymore, but directly called a junior, whispered a few instructions, and then dismissed the junior.
