"Oh, so you're the family member of the boss. Nice to meet you! You two are really a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman! The boss surely has good taste!"
Feng Yunshu smiled. "Shopkeeper Jia, you can go on with your work. I'm just here today to bring them for a meal. There's nothing else."
Shopkeeper Jia nodded. "Sure thing! Boss, you can just order directly. I'll tell the kitchen to cook your dishes first!"
At this point, Shopkeeper Jia seemed to remember something and reminded, "Boss, do you want to try the new medicinal diets in our Five - Spice Pavilion?"
Feng Yunshu thought for a while and then nodded. "Sure, that's fine. Pick a few of the best - selling medicinal diets in the shop. I'd like to taste them."
Shopkeeper Jia quickly nodded. "Yes, I'll give the order right away!"
Before turning to go upstairs, Feng Yunshu glanced at the people queuing impatiently. Coincidentally, she saw a few customers in the queue starting an argument for some reason.
"Hey, I said, why are you so unreasonable? I clearly got here first. I was standing in front of you. I just talked to someone for a moment, and how come you've jumped in front of me?"
"What do you mean? What do you mean you were in front of me? You were just standing there talking and not moving forward. There are so many people waiting behind. Who knows if you're going to eat or not? If you don't move forward, of course I have to. What's the problem?"
"Hey, you're so unreasonable!"
"When have I been unreasonable? I think the unreasonable one is you!"
"Hey, what are you going to do? Want to fight?!"
Seeing that a conflict was about to break out there, the waiter immediately came to call Shopkeeper Jia to deal with it, really not knowing how to handle this matter.
Just as Shopkeeper Jia was about to turn around to handle it, Feng Yunshu looked at the impatiently queuing crowd, frowned slightly, and her mind started to work rapidly.
Then, Feng Yunshu stepped forward. Helan Yanting subconsciously grabbed her wrist. "Madam, I can just ask Yan Qi to handle such a trivial matter. You don't need to go there yourself."
Feng Yunshu was stunned for a moment. After reacting, she smiled. "Your Highness, you misunderstood. I'm not simply going to stop the fight. This matter doesn't really need me to do it. I have other things in mind."
After saying that, Feng Yunshu walked forward.
The two quarreling customers were basically persuaded to make up by Shopkeeper Jia. Although they stopped quarreling, because of their fight, quite a few customers who were still queuing left to avoid being accidentally hurt.
"Everyone, don't be impatient. Our shop will soon come up with a special solution to the problem of the large crowd."
Feng Yunshu stepped forward, raising her voice. The voice coming from her dantian was originally very loud. Coupled with the fact that she deliberately added some of her spiritual power, her voice had a certain magic to it, making the noisy crowd around immediately quiet down.
"Shopkeeper Jia, there's originally an open space in front of our Five - Spice Pavilion. We just haven't made good use of it. You should divide this open space into specific areas for parking carriages according to what I said, and draw the lines with lime powder so that the customers who come by carriage can park their carriages more conveniently."
Shopkeeper Jia, listening on the side, nodded repeatedly and quickly memorized it in his mind. "Yes!"
"As for these queuing customers, since the number of tables and stools in our shop has almost doubled, there's no more space to expand for the time being. But don't worry. Our shop will consider opening a branch in another area of the city. The taste and dishes will be exactly the same. Later, you can come to support the new store. There will be a great discount on the opening day!"
"Besides, our shop also supports the service of delivering food to your doorstep. If you don't want to queue so hard, you can come to our shop to order and register in order. As long as you're within the imperial city, our shop will arrange for the waiters to deliver the dishes to your home specially."
"What? We can directly place an order and have it delivered to our home?!"
As soon as Feng Yunshu said this, the queuing customers were all stunned, clearly not expecting such a business model at all.
Shopkeeper Jia, who was standing beside, was also stunned after hearing Feng Yunshu's suggestion. Then, after a thought, he thought this idea was really amazing!
Looking at these stunned customers, Feng Yunshu nodded with a smile and calmly and confidently said,
"Of course. Our shop can start implementing the service of delivering food to your doorstep now. However, some special dishes are best enjoyed right after they're out of the pot. If we deliver them to your home, it will delay the best time to eat them, and it may affect the taste. I hope you can place your orders according to the situation."
After saying that, Feng Yunshu turned to look at Shopkeeper Jia. "Later, you send someone to set up some stools and tea in front of our shop so that these queuing customers can sit down and wait for their food after getting their number plates."
After hearing this, Shopkeeper Jia almost cheered for Feng Yunshu on the spot. He thought to himself why he hadn't thought of these methods. Sure enough, the boss was not an ordinary person!
"Yes, I'll go and tell the people below to arrange it right away!"
"Oh, right. Our shop was negligent today and made you wait in the queue for so long. So, today all the dishes in the shop will be 20% off. In addition, customers who spend more than 20 taels of silver in our shop at one time can also get a free bottle of our special osmanthus wine."
"20% off?! And free osmanthus wine?!"
All the customers present instantly boiled with excitement. They were as excited as if they had been hit on the head by a gold ingot falling from the sky, and they all cheered.
"The boss is really generous! No wonder the Five - Spice Pavilion has such good business!"
"Yes, the Five - Spice Pavilion is really honest. Not only are the dishes rich and healthy, but the new medicinal diets can also strengthen the body and treat some ailments. And the price is not high. It's really good value for money!"
If the full score was five stars, then everyone's evaluation of the Five - Spice Pavilion was at least 4.8 stars. For a moment, the Five - Spice Pavilion, from an ordinary small restaurant, leaped to become the most prosperous, most profitable, and most famous big - name restaurant in the imperial city!
After dealing with this matter, Feng Yunshu went upstairs to the private room amidst the admiration of the crowd, and finally got some peace.
As soon as she sat down, Feng Yunshu found that Helan Yanting had been looking at her with deep eyes. She couldn't help but feel a little nervous. "Your Highness, why are you looking at me like this? Did I do something wrong just now?"
Helan Yanting shook his head, and his eyes were hard to hide the admiration. "I originally thought that you just started to manage the Five - Spice Pavilion on a whim. Now it seems that you're really a good material for business!"
"Did you come up with all those methods just now by yourself?"
Feng Yunshu proudly raised her chin. "Of course! I've said before that I'm not just a glutton and greedy for money. As the saying goes, a gentleman loves wealth and acquires it in a proper way. Your Highness, do you think my way of making money is quite good?"
Helan Yanting couldn't help but smile. He couldn't help but pinch Feng Yunshu, who was full of pride in front of him. "You, you're really a little smarty - pants. Even I feel ashamed of myself. It seems that I've truly found a gem and brought it home."
