After being reborn as a man, the woman improved her family's fortunes through education.

Chapter 651 Large-scale Procurement + Negotiation of Southern Territory Agency Rights

Regardless of their professional skills, the staff at Liuxiang Pavilion are always a bit better looking than those at other shops.

Of course, the staff at Liuxiang Pavilion are also very capable. They excel in everything they do, from dealing with people and packing goods to accounting and inventory management.

It wasn't that Wenbin, the head manager, was particularly strict; it was just that the wages he paid were too high, and everyone was constantly cutting corners.

I always felt that if I couldn't keep up with the development of Liuxiang Pavilion, I would be eliminated and I would be letting down the high salary that Liuxiang Pavilion paid me.

As expected, Zhao Yunxi's eyes lit up when she entered Liuxiang Pavilion, just like the other guests.

Xiao You was even more stunned. Had she entered a rouge shop or a brothel?

Why are all the waiters so fair-skinned and delicate? Is Liuxiang Pavilion a legitimate business?

Zhao Yunxi wasn't as exaggerated as Xiao You; after a moment's thought, she understood the owner of Liuxiang Pavilion's intentions.

It must be said that the company behind this is very good at business and knows how to grasp the needs of users.

Since this is a shop frequented by women, having attractive staff will make customers feel better.

When you're in a good mood, you might be more likely to spend money.

"Welcome to Liuxiang Pavilion! Please feel free to browse. We are at your service anytime!"

The staff at Liuxiang Pavilion will not follow the customers; this was a specific instruction given by Jiang Xiaoqi.

If a customer needs an explanation, they will naturally call for someone. If they don't like having someone follow them, they will feel annoyed by being with someone the whole way.

Whether or not a customer makes a purchase, their experience is paramount.

Jiang Xiaoqi put himself in others' shoes and set this rule for his employees.

Zhao Yunxi and Xiaoyou strolled around the store, their eyes still drawn to the exquisite glass dome.

The dazzling array of bottles and jars, encased in transparent glass domes, gives them an air of unattainability.

"Miss, the glass dome of this Liuxiang Pavilion seems somewhat similar to the one next door. Has the capital become so wealthy?"

Every shop is using glass now, how much does that cost?

Zhao Yunxi carefully examined the decorations and furnishings of Liuxiang Pavilion, then shook her head at her maid.

"This isn't something just any shop can use. Besides, the pastry shop next door is probably imitating the decor and furnishings of Liuli Pavilion."

However, because the types of goods sold are different, there are some differences in the decoration and layout, and the layout has been slightly adjusted.

"Oh? So, it's very likely that the two businesses are owned by the same company? Does Liuxiang Pavilion also have a royal background? Indeed, any big business that can be built up must have a powerful backer."

Zhao Yunxi remained noncommittal. He didn't think the store had anything to do with the royal family. Maybe the royal family wanted to be associated with the store?

They browsed the entire store, but neither Zhao Yunxi nor her servant said whether they would buy anything or not. Under these circumstances, no one made any sarcastic remarks or urged them to buy anything.

It seemed that these shop assistants and managers didn't care whether they bought anything or not, and didn't even give them a glance.

"Could you get these items for me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the waiter who was supposed to take turns stepped forward. There was no large group of people rushing over, which made Zhao Yunxi even more interested.

"Miss, which ones would you like?"

"I think the items in the store are all pretty good. If I want one of everything, can you deliver them to my home?"

"Of course you can, but miss, the items in our store have an expiration date. If you buy too many at once, it's fine to give them away, but if you're buying them for yourself, it's a bit too many."

Huh? They actually turned away business that came knocking on their door?

Zhao Yunxi looked at the shop assistant. He couldn't believe that the amount sold was unrelated to this shop assistant. With their interests tied together, how could he push away the money that was about to be his? Did this shop assistant treat money like dirt?

"Oh? How long is the usage period?"

"Different products have slightly different usage periods. For example, the high-end products from our Liuxiang Pavilion generally have a usage period of six months to one year."

Mid-range products have a lifespan of two years, while the lowest-end products can last for three to five years.

However, judging from the young lady's demeanor, she definitely prefers high-end products, which is why I advised her not to buy too much at once.

Our shop has always been here; you can come anytime you need anything. There's really no need to stock up on inventory.

The shopkeeper spoke very sincerely, without a trace of acting, and Zhao Yunxi listened to his advice and bought several sets of high-end products.

Seeing that her young mistress had finished shopping, Xiao You also asked the shop assistant a question.

"Hey sir, does that pearl cream have a longer shelf life? I'd like to buy a lot to give as gifts when I go back to my hometown."

The young shop assistant did not treat the woman differently because she was a maid, and patiently explained the shelf life and usage precautions of several inexpensive items.

"Miss, that pearl cream can last for three years, so I can buy more."

"Go ahead and buy them, but don't buy too many today. Just buy some for a few people in the manor. You can come back after we've confirmed the date we're going back home. Wouldn't that be better?"

That seems to make sense. If I stay in the capital with the young master and young lady for a year or two, wouldn't that be a waste of that time?

"Our young lady is the smartest," said the maid. "Yes, yes, I'll listen to you. Let's buy a few for now and bring some back for Xiao Le and the others."

Both high-end and low-end goods were carefully packaged and paired with Liuxiangge's unique shopping bags, which made them look more upscale and sophisticated than other stores that just carried paper bags.

"What's this? A paper bag? It's quite sturdy."

Xiaoyou decided to keep the bags carefully. They look nice, and each bag has a different pattern. They'll be convenient to use for storing things in the future.

Xiao You was born in ancient times; if she were born in later generations, she would probably be a collector of milk tea bags.

"Miss, would you like delivery service?"

"No need. I didn't buy much even though you persuaded me. It can all fit in the carriage."

Just like before, the shopkeeper loaded all the things Zhao Yunxi and Xiaoyou had bought onto the carriage.

However, unlike the previous waiter, the young waiter from Liuxiang Pavilion glanced at the emblem on the carriage.

From the residence of the Crown Prince of Xuan Nan?

The waiter glanced at it and silently retreated back into the store, while Zhao Yunxi was paying the bill.

After paying the money, Zhao Yunxi was not in a hurry to leave.

"By the way, I wonder if the owner or manager of your shop is here? I have a business deal I'd like to discuss with your shop."

Ok?

Xiao You looked at her young mistress with some surprise. Why was she discussing business while they were strolling around?

Aren't all their businesses in the southern region? What business could they possibly have to discuss with Liuxiang Pavilion in the capital?

"The master doesn't come often. The head manager is on the second floor. Please wait a moment, Miss, while I inform him."
