Chapter 446 New Decoration
After the gold medal producer joined, Ma Lu collected a total of 2316 business points in the next five days.
As soon as the business point was obtained, Ma Lu couldn't wait to start decorating the restaurant.
He first replaced the cheap second-hand chairs of the same style in the canteen that he originally bought with black walnut upholstered seats, and then replaced the dining table with black walnut.
After that, he also changed the light bulb above his head. In fact, lighting is also very important for restaurants, because lighting will directly affect the dishes and the sense of ritual during dining, especially at night, good lighting It will make the dishes on the table look more delicious.
In order to save money, Ma Lu had to make do with the lighting before renovating. But when he made money later, he thought it would be too troublesome to renovate, so he never did it again. The visual aspect was saved by Lao Wang's presentation.
But now that he could solve this problem with just a few clicks, there was no reason for him to procrastinate any longer, so he replaced all the previous incandescent light bulbs with full-spectrum color temperature and brightness adjustable strip chandeliers. , about 75 cm high from the dining table.
In addition, a vase was placed on each table, and the atmosphere was immediately felt.
But as a result, the floors and walls of the original hot pot restaurant seemed out of place again. Ma Lu replaced the floors with herringbone solid wood. However, by this time, the more than 2,000 business points on hand had been consumed. Seventy-seven or eighty-eight.
There is not enough tiles on the wall to be replaced at the moment, so we have to wait until next week.
However, even if it was only half-renovated, the guests who came to dine were shocked. Some people thought that Ma was always planning to increase the price.
Because of the previous Zhanshangfeng decoration of the Universe Infinite Canteen, a dish could be sold for hundreds of dollars. Now that the decoration level has gone up, doesn’t the price have to go up again?
Some diners came forward to inquire about Malu in fear, and got good news and bad news.
The good news is that Universe Infinite Canteen has no plans to increase prices recently. The bad news is that their question reminded Ma Lu and made him realize that they can increase the price of vegetables after the installation is completed.
Nowadays, the queues at the entrance of restaurants are getting longer and longer every day. Sometimes, if you don’t line up two or three hours in advance, you won’t be able to get a meal. To be honest, this also affects the dining experience.
Raising prices can also shorten queue times.
However, this was a critical period for diverting traffic to Chiling. Malu was reluctant to bear such a large amount of traffic, so he decided to wait a little longer to at least finish decorating the restaurant.
After finishing the things at hand and not having time to relax, Malu embarked on another journey to look for ingredients and returned to Yuchang County again.
Nothing happened this time. Gu Qingyi went directly out of the city to wait for him, and the two met smoothly.
Ma Lu learned from Gu Qingyi what had happened in the county in the past few days after he left.
Because he and Gu Qingyi caught the real culprit who killed Deputy Sect Master Xu, Yi Te successfully restrained Tan Mazi and others who were determined to avenge Deputy Sect Master Xu, so that they did not go to the Beggar Gang to fight for their lives.
The Beggar Clan also temporarily shelved its attack plan on Tianlongmen due to the persuasion of Chu Qianyuan and several elders.
But just yesterday, another person died in the city.
And this time, seven people died. These seven people were neither from Tianlongmen nor from the Beggar Clan, but they were martial arts masters who came to help the beggar, and their backgrounds were not simple.
They are either masters who have been famous for a long time in the world, or they are core disciples of famous sects. With the combined power behind these people, not even the Beggar Clan can afford to offend them.
After their death, Tianlongmen was the first to be suspected, and since they came to help the beggars, the beggars naturally couldn't just sit idly by, so the atmosphere in the city immediately became tense again.
“It’s a coincidence that these people died.” Ma Lu commented after hearing this. Gu Qingyi nodded, "Yes, the Beggar Clan just decided to postpone the attack on Tianlongmen. They died in less than two days after that, which simply forced the Beggar Clan to continue fighting against Tianlongmen."
She paused and then continued, "I found the person you asked me to find to send colorful butterflies to Xu Mansion. Manager Zhou had some impressions of him and said that person was named Liu Huozui. He is the most famous man in Yuchang County. He not only sells people but also houses. But he died three years ago."
"His eldest son said that he died of wind evil, but there are also neighbors. It was said that he had done too many immoral things and was punished by being stalked by evil spirits and killed. ”
"Three years ago? Does that mean he died a year after Cai Die entered Xu Mansion?" Ma Lu touched his nose, "This is a coincidence. The people behind the scenes are cautious in doing things."
He looked at Gu Qingyi again when he said this. He originally thought that the girl would be a little disappointed after this clue was broken, but he didn't expect that Gu Qingyi was not anxious at all and looked confident.
Ma Luqi asked, "Why, do you have any other gains?"
Gu Qingyi nodded, "According to Liu Huozui's eldest son, Liu Huozui died one month ago He was a little uneasy, but when his family asked him what he was worried about, he remained silent.
"But he also has a good friend named Qin Feng, whom he has played with since childhood. , Qin Feng was originally a servant of the county government, but once he was escorting a prisoner, the prisoner escaped. He was worried that he would be punished when he came back, so he ran away.
"The grass fell in the nearby mountains and became a robber. Liu Huozui's eldest son said that Qin Feng had returned to Yuchang County a month before Liu Huozui's death and met Liu Huozui. Liu Huozui also started to become restless and suspicious after that meeting.
"So Qin Feng came back to warn Liu Huozui, and he should be able to find out about Liu Huozui if he finds Qin Feng. Who killed the mouth? "Ma Ludao.
"I think so too. "
"Have you found Qin Feng? ”
“Not yet. "Gu Qingyi shook his head, "I only know that he dropped grass in Wohu Gang, but there were several waves of green forest bandits in Wohu Gang. I don't know who he followed, and I was planning to go to Wohu Gang to take a look. ”
"Then let's go together, but before we go, I have to do one thing first."
"What?"
"The seven masters you said were dead before I want to pay my respects to the decent disciples.”
“Ah? Do you want to pay homage again?” Gu Qingyi didn’t understand why Malu was so interested in paying homage to the dead. .
Is it possible that his teacher is there again?
This, this is not possible.
After that, she heard Ma Lu explain, "These people were probably killed by the people behind the scenes. Maybe we can get some other clues from them."
Okay, that makes sense.
Gu Qingyi said, "I went to check. The corpses were badly damaged. Even if there are any clues, it would be difficult to find them. But if you want to go, I will accompany you to have a look. ”
