Chapter 179 Renovation
Although Song Xin and Shopkeeper Zheng did not understand what Song Qingci said, they were tactful enough not to say much and just waited quietly to listen.
"What I mean is, we should take this opportunity to completely change the appearance of Moon Viewing Tower." Song Qingci had this idea as early as when he saw the account books handed in by Moon Viewing Tower.
It can be seen from the account books that the business of the Moon Viewing Tower had basically stagnated five years ago.
It is indeed the most profitable business of the General's Mansion at present. But that's all.
There is basically no room for improvement.
If it continues to operate in the current state, within three years, Moon Viewing Tower will definitely lose all its current advantages.
Gradually, it became invisible to the public.
"What else can this restaurant become?" Shopkeeper Zheng looked completely bewildered.
In his opinion, all restaurants in the world are the same.
It’s just a matter of which chef is more skilled and makes more delicious food.
How else can it change?!
"What do you think?" Song Qingci asked Song Xin.
It is quite normal for Manager Zheng not to understand. He is a pure ancient man with relatively rigid thinking. His daily code of conduct is not to seek merit but to avoid mistakes.
Song Qingci had never had much hope for him to change this matter.
However, she still had some expectations for Song Xin.
Song Xin was called by name, and he glanced at Manager Zheng. Seeing that he didn't look particularly happy, he replied, "I think we can take this opportunity to renovate the Moon Viewing Tower."
"When I came here today, I discovered that although the Moon Viewing Tower is large, many places are a bit run-down. They are all caused by long-term use and wear and tear."
"If it were an ordinary small shop, such signs of wear and tear would not be a big deal, but the Moon Viewing Tower is a famous building in the capital. Many of the guests who come to dine here are either rich or noble."
"If guests who pay more attention to details see a place like this, they will feel uncomfortable. Some may even never come back again."
"So, I think it is necessary to renovate the Moon Viewing Tower now."
Song Xin finished what he wanted to say in one breath.
She didn't know if what she said was right or not, but after saying it, she felt more at peace.
"But, it will cost a lot to renovate the Moon Viewing Tower." Manager Zheng didn't mean to pour cold water on the idea at this time. However, as the new manager of the Moon Viewing Tower, how much money the Moon Viewing Tower still had?
It’s not that we can’t afford the renovation, but if we really do, there will be very little cash left on the books.
Song Xin had not considered the issue of expenses. When Manager Zheng brought it up, he immediately became panicked after feeling relieved just now.
"Madam, I really didn't think of this," Song Xin said very embarrassedly.
"It's okay, you and I are thinking the same thing." Song Qingci gave his affirmation at the right time.
"There are ways to renovate it for the rich and the poor. However, it will definitely need to be renovated. Shopkeeper Zheng, don't feel burdened in this regard. I will send you the design drawings tomorrow, and you will just be responsible for finding someone to do the construction."
"Yes. I will fully cooperate with the young lady's orders." Shopkeeper Zheng nodded in agreement.
Since the young lady said that he didn't need to feel any burden, he was naturally not afraid anymore.
