Chapter 944: The New Shop Opens For Business (3)

“Hahahaha!” Gu Qingyao was tickled. The girl was so obsessed with money that she spent all her time thinking about how to get rich. When she was young, her thoughts were focused on earning money. Now she had a small fortune but was still trying to strike it rich.

When the goods were properly displayed, Gu Qingyao brought Gu Fangting out for lunch. That afternoon, she went to the other shop she had bought.

This one had three levels and was to be turned into a restaurant.

It was bigger, with a very spacious backyard. The regulations were not as strict as they would be later, so she was free to add on to the building if it became necessary in the future. There was plenty of space.

The renovations were almost complete, and some of the tables and chairs had been delivered. Only the upstairs ones were missing.

Gu Qingyao had not built so many private rooms here, and they occupied only part of the third floor. The set-up of the second floor was slightly more high-end, but not too opulent.

This was not like Jin Jiang Restaurant that served the cream of society. This restaurant mainly served ordinary working-class citizens.

There were many residential areas around here, and many people here had jobs. All the families with incomes would be able to afford this place.

Even ordinary citizens might be able to come here now and then.

Gu Fangting saw that the renovations were almost complete, and she said, “Are you about to open? Older Cousin, are you also starting a restaurant?”

“Uhm!” Gu Qingyao nodded. “I will open in three days. The clientèle is not high class, just ordinary workers who live around here. The renovation is done. Another batch of chairs and tables will arrive soon.”

Gu Fangting drooled when she looked at the pictures posted on the surrounding walls. “Older Cousin, your pictures are so good. Just looking at them makes me want to try the food! You’re so clever!”

In these times, small restaurants did not do such things. Posters required money, and many people did not think of it. Others were simply unwilling to waste that kind of money.

Now businesses were just beginning. The tycoons of later years were slowly gaining experience now.

In later times, everyone would be used to such advertisements. But they had not yet appeared!

Gu Fangting looked around and asked, “Why are they all pictures of fish with pickles? They all look the same.”

Gu Qingyao laughed. “This place specializes in fish with pickles. There are only a few other dishes. You can order a large or a small portion. We also have fish noodle soup with pickles. The portion is enough for one or two people.”

Gu Fangting suddenly remembered the pickles earlier. Gu Fangting examined this restaurant that specialized in fish with pickles and thought for a while. She suddenly said, “Older Cousin, you are just too clever. I’ve eaten your fish with pickles. If your restaurant sells that, it will certainly do a roaring business.

“Fish is very cheap now, and everyone can afford it. Once your fish with pickles becomes popular, many people will try to cook it themselves at home. Then your pickles will sell.”

Gu Qingyao raised her brows. “Not bad! You’re an experienced businesswoman after all! That was quick thinking.”

Gu Fangting said shyly, “I’m still a far cry from you.”

Gu Qingyao did not think Gu Fangting was stupid at all. Many things were just a matter of experience. At this time, everyone’s thinking was naive, and they did not have so many tricks. The market had only just opened up and businesses were simpler.

She had seen plenty of prosperity and competition in later years, so her brain moved faster. But Gu Fangting did not have the memories of an earlier life. In this era, for a young girl to think of doing a business and then actually executing it showed that she had foresight.

One must know that in a few decades, the first batch of people like Gu Fangting would become billionaires!
