Chapter 136 Yunhan Society

After a journey that was neither long nor arduous, everyone returned to Liyue Harbor.

After arriving at the most prosperous city in the entire continent, Diona and Brock couldn't help but express their amazement when they saw the busy streets and various novel objects from various countries on the streets.

"Liyue is a great place." Lu Shiyuan said with a smile, "Three thousand seven hundred years of accumulation, you must experience it well."

"Humph, Mondstadt isn't bad either!" Diona raised her head proudly. "Just wait and see. I will use the exquisite skills I learned in Mondstadt to conquer all the people of Liyue."

"Me too!" Brock agreed. "I heard Xiangling is also in Liyue Harbor. I am competing with her. I lost last time. This time, it won't be so easy for her to win."

Lu Shiyuan nodded with satisfaction. These two were the best in their respective industries and top talents who had passed the test of business, not to mention they were so motivated. He had already seen that his pub was overcrowded.

So, what is the appropriate price for drinks and dishes?

Lu Shiyuan thought for a while, then shook his head, "No, don't be too arrogant. My biggest advantage is actually the low cost of drinks and ingredients. After all, the shipping cost is zero, and the shop is also mine, so I don't have to pay rent.

Although Mondstadt-style taverns are considered novel in Liyue Harbor, there are still competitors. If I can lower the price of goods and sweep away all my competitors, wouldn't I be able to form a monopoly directly?
By then, the tavern will have a good reputation, and I will have the final say on how to price the goods, so I won’t have to worry about not making enough Mora.”

Lu Shiyuan had an idea in mind and looked at everyone: "Qianzhi, take these two to Liyue Harbor for a stroll first, and rent a house for them to live in, preferably one that is close to the store."

As he said that, he handed the ring to his sister and said, "Put the luggage in place, get any daily necessities they need, and have them move in before tonight."

"Got it, brother." Lu Qianzhi nodded.

"What about me?" Mona asked hurriedly.

Lu Shiyuan asked curiously, "Don't you have to go back to study your own topic? How can such a small matter bother you?"

"It's okay, I've finished my assignments." Mona felt warm at heart when she heard that the other party cared about her so much, but she still maintained her personality and acted cool. "It just so happens that I also want to go out for a walk, so I'll go with them."

As she spoke, she took the ring from Lu Qianzhi's hand and happily put it on her own finger.

Lu Shiyuan tilted his head with a strange expression, but ultimately said nothing.

"When do I start working?" Diona asked eagerly.

"No hurry, no hurry." Lu Shiyuan said with a smile, "You guys can have fun for a few days first. I still have some things to set up here. I'll be busy once the business opens."

"Then hurry up!" Diona pouted and urged.

"Yes, yes, yes." Lu Shiyuan was very satisfied with the employees' enthusiasm for work.

"Brother, what else are you going to do?" Lu Qianzhi asked curiously.

"Renovate the tavern." Lu Shiyuan said calmly, "Anyway, this tavern wasn't run by my parents before, so I don't have any good memories of it. It would be nice to completely transform it into Mondstadt style."

Lu Qianzhi nodded in agreement.

“By the way, I will go and talk to Yunhan Society to see if we can invite their opera troupe to our teahouse.

The bartender and chef in the pub are so good, the teahouse can't be any worse." Lu Shiyuan said, "Anyway, you guys go have fun first." Everyone nodded, said goodbye to Lu Shiyuan, and went to have fun on their own.

The latter turned to look for decoration craftsmen. After selecting several decoration teams, he finally chose a team that was best at Mond-style decoration. He took them to inspect the site, planned the drawings, negotiated the price, and started work that day. He went to the Hall of Rebirth to collect the wages.

Of course, it was his own money. The clay puppet workshop was still open and he made a lot of money every day.

After arranging the decoration team, Lu Shiyuan bought a gift and walked towards the Yunhan Society’s headquarters.

As the most famous opera troupe in Liyue, Yunhanshe naturally has ample funds. It has a large piece of land in the city, where it has built a stage specifically for practice, as well as residences for the actors and a reception room for receiving guests.

Lu Shiyuan reported it, only to find out that he had to queue up. A bunch of newspaper reporters were waiting to interview Yun Jin, the big star of Liyue.

He wanted to cut in line, but after all, he was asking someone to do something for him, and doing so would be too offensive.

After waiting in line for more than two hours, when the sun was about to set, Lu Shiyuan finally entered the reception room and met Yunhanshe's manager, Yunning, who played the same role as an agent.

"You are Mr. Lu, right?" Yun Ning asked after taking a look at the visitor list.

"it's me."

"You are... a reporter?"

"No, no, no, I'm the owner of Yizhu Teahouse. This time, I want to sign a long-term contract with Yunhan Society. I hope that Mr. Yunjin from your society can come to perform once a week... or once a month."

"Oh, is that so." Yun Ning nodded in understanding, with a flash of disdain in her eyes.

To be honest, there are a lot of bosses like this who want to invite Yun Jin to perform every week, and she just sent away a few of them. Therefore, she doesn't care about Boss Lu Shiyuan's identity at all.

Moreover, this Boss Lu is obviously a young and inexperienced person. He always asks for weekly, monthly... Haha, a sensible person would be grateful even if Yun Jin visits once every six months.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Yun doesn't have any schedule recently. We can't accept Mr. Lu's request. But we have other actors. Do you think you are interested?" Yun Ning declined politely.

Lu Shiyuan took in every detail of Yun Ning's look just now, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. When doing business, it's always like this. If you don't show some strength, you will definitely not be respected by others.

He lowered his head and thought, then, what strength do I have now? Although my teahouse was very famous in the past, but ten years have passed, who remembers it?
Use your connections? Who? Keqing? With that girl's personality, she'll turn around and scold you, and it's more likely that you're using your power to bully others.

Or, to report your heroic deeds in defeating the devil? But can this move people?
After thinking it over, Lu Shiyuan really couldn't think of a good way. He also looked down on ordinary actors. In this case, sitting there any longer would only bring humiliation to himself.

He stood up and said calmly, "Since Mr. Yun from your company is unable to spare time, I will visit your company later."

"Goodbye, Mr. Lu." Yun Ning stood up to see him off in a professional manner, and there was absolutely no fault in her etiquette.

After leaving Yunhan Club, Lu Shiyuan looked back at the other party's sign and sighed, "It's hard to find a cash cow. Heyu Teahouse is lucky."

But soon, he reaffirmed his belief: "It is precisely because the song is hard to find that it is a cash cow. I don't believe that I can't invite her."

He paced slowly, thinking about countermeasures as he walked. After a long time, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind, and he punched his palm: "I remembered that Hu Tao seems to have some contact with Yun Jin in private. Why don't I go ask her? That girl is cunning and must have some good ideas."
