Chapter 178 Joy
Early in the morning, the whole Guzhuang became alive. Men, women, young and old all changed into neat clothes, put on a handful of money, talked and laughed, and walked together.
"'Gu Ji' opened a big reward for guests. All the villagers in Guzhuang are discounted by 30% off. They walk faster, but they are afraid they won't be able to eat if they are slower."
The brothers Wang Tiesheng carried me on his back and said with a smile.
Zhou Dongniang's face showed some sorrow: "You're still 30% off? There are so many people who eat, but don't lose your business."
She was not alone. For the matter of "Gu Ji", the old patriarch also specially summoned the strong men in the village who could resist the matter and talked about it several times.
The general meaning is that every household is not allowed to cause trouble to the third lady. The third lady does not need manpower, so she is not allowed to send relatives to the restaurant. If the third lady needs it, they should also help to check it carefully as elders.
Those who are cheating must not go.
"The third lady is young and has a thin skin. If she can't let go of her face, it will depend on your aunts to support her."
The old women with the largest seniority in the village responded repeatedly, and their faces showed a bit of solemnity.
The patriarch's wife thought about it and said, "We have never run any restaurants, but since we are doing business, we must be very careful about the ingredients."
When everyone thought about it, several hunters expressed their opinions that they would definitely send the best prey to the third lady in the shortest time, so that they would not miss it.
"We keep all the pigs raised by the family in the new way for the third lady to keep them for her first and then for others."
It’s not that everyone is concerned about it. Gu Xiang has always understood that for her, money is secondary and power is the most important. Her personal strength cannot be compared with the power of the clan. No matter what she does, she intends to pull the villagers into her chariot.
Nowadays, the entire Guzhuang either signed an employment contract with Gu Xiang or relied on Gu Xiang for a purely life. Especially the "Gu Ji", Gu Xiang himself only accounts for 55% of the members. The remaining 45% of the members were distributed to the partners responsible for supplying the goods according to their contributions, and handed over to the clans 10% to the clans, buy sacrificial fields, open sacrificial homes, and support the elderly in the village in the future, and also provide the clans with expenses for schooling.
Another 10% will be distributed to villagers according to their caps. Of course, only those who have obtained Gu Village household registration can be assigned, but it will be difficult to become naturalized in the future.
The last fifteen percent is spare.
This part of Gu Xiang is reserved for the future. "Gu Ji" can really grow and grow. I don't have to use this part to find a backer for everyone.
When Gu Xiang discussed with the clan leader and clan elders, the old clan leader and clan elders were completely confused. After that, they were overjoyed and were particularly satisfied. They only thought about how many villagers would benefit from the future. How many villagers would disagree?
The only thing that is somewhat controversial is that some old people think there are many outsiders in the village. Gu Xiang is the child of their Gu family. If there are benefits, they should be distributed to the Gu family. Why should others get involved?
But the old clan leader thinks better than those clan elders. They are all villagers in the same village, and most of them are related to relatives. There is a saying that distant relatives are not as good as neighbors. If they score in a village, it is not a good thing.
Some people may not succeed, but wouldn’t it be troublesome if they want bad things?
Besides, Gu Xiang is happy, why do they need to be villains in vain?
It would be of no benefit to anyone if it really made conflicts among the villagers for some money.
Anyway, no matter how much their own thoughts the Gu clan people have, there is nothing that the Hemura is not unwilling to expect from the appearance of the "Gu Ji" restaurant.
The villagers dig food in the fields every year, and they can’t save much money in the end of the year. Having a little extra investment is a major event that concerns the future and life.
If you can save some money, you won’t starve to death when you encounter disaster.
If you can save some money, you won’t wait to die if you meet your relatives when you get sick.
"Everyone walks faster. You little kids are still walking such a good bluestone road and are still slow to go, and they don't know how to cherish their blessings!"
It had just fallen winter snow. If it were the early years, the villagers would definitely not be happy to go out. As the snow began to melt, the roads in the village would be muddy and difficult to walk. It would be a pair of shoes to go out.
The farmers and women in the village usually don’t have enough food. They don’t work in winter and eat less. When they are cold in winter, they will be frozen into ice lumps when they go out.
And when this comes, the men at home can't sleep well, and the village also needs to organize patrols around. In the past, snow fell in winter and smashed the house and killed people. It happened every now and then.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to bear winter!
This year has been very different.
In addition to building roads, Guzhuang's black-clad road repair team also tossed the village, planting trees and flowers, and laying pavilions. When they saw that some houses were dilapidated, they repaired them as soon as possible.
Now every household in Guzhuangjia is not a new house, but better than a new house. Zhou Dong is a job in the county government office and hasn't been home for more than ten days. When he returned to the village, he almost thought he had gone to the wrong place. When he got home, he was even more shocked: "Dad, is he telling me seriously? Which family belongs to?"
When Zhou Dongniang heard her son's words, she slapped her thigh: "Oh, I said something was missing, but I didn't have a daughter-in-law!"
Of course, the third lady dare not think about it now.
Zhou Dongniang has been suffering for a few days. Recently, she has been getting better. She privately talked to her man: "In fact, it is a good thing that has not been successful. We know our own son. We are a good young man and will not be bad for our wife in the future. But if I think about it, the third lady really entered the door of our Zhou family, I would feel guilty and short of anger."
In today's ancient costumes, after snowing, the villagers can even taste the beauty of the snow scene.
The journey was smoothly reached "Gu Ji". Before entering the gate, Zhou Dongniang and his wife couldn't help but get up with each other.
From a distance, there are carved beams and painted roads, which are beautiful everywhere.
The close view is even more shocking.
After entering the garden, there are all pavilions, towers, rockery, ponds and marshes.
When I entered the room, the ground was like white jade, the carvings on it were elegant and unparalleled. The palace lanterns on the four walls above the head were exquisite and novel. The tables and chairs were all precious woods such as rosewood and other good materials. The tableware and tea cups were all exquisite in color. When did they see it?
Zhou Dongniang was stubborn and even felt that her feet were a sin to step on the ground: "Qiuli, the third lady said to move the village canteen to the garden outside? Is this right?"
Gu Xiang was busy in the kitchen at this time, and the ones responsible for entertaining guests were Qiuli and Cherry.
The two of them were actually a little dizzy, but they still followed their own third wife's instructions and said with a smile: "There is nothing wrong. Gu Ji's private room is located on the second and third floors of this Yun Building. There are six private rooms in total. Our young lady only makes six tables at noon every day and six tables at night. No reservations are made, first come first served."
