"Good afternoon, fellow painters, let's continue today's study." Gu Xiaoyou said in a decent manner, as if he were a teacher.

"Okay." The painters responded uniformly, looking at the rice paper on the wall attentively.

After listening to the conversation just now, Gu Xiaoyou started drawing on the rice paper with confidence, and his strokes were a little bolder than in the morning.

The painters studied hard and the day passed quickly.

In the following days, Gu Xiaoyou watched videos on her mobile phone at night to improve her painting knowledge, and the next day she went to the backyard to teach the painters.

The painters were worthy of being painters. They learned quickly and extended many things. The colors and patterns were even better than what she painted.

Five days later, Gu Xiaoyou inspected each artist's work and said with satisfaction: "Congratulations to all of you for graduating. Starting today, the orders in the store will be drawn by you."

"Thank you, Boss Gu, we will do a good job." The painters said happily, one by one eager to try, ready to devote themselves to the creation of tissue bags.

Gu Xiaoyou distributed the colored paper according to the order and asked the painters to draw.

The painters drew pictures on colored paper according to the order's requirements. Gu Xiaoyou inspected the room several times with his hands behind his back. Seeing that the painters painted quickly and well, he felt relieved.

After the painters finished painting the works on the first day, Gu Xiaoyou checked them one by one and said with satisfaction: "You did a good job. Just paint like this. If you complete the order before the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, I will give you a bonus."

"Thank you, boss." The painters responded happily. They didn't expect the female boss to be so straightforward and generous, not only teaching them painting for free, but also getting bonuses for good paintings. They secretly decided to work hard in the shop.

Encouraged by the bonus, the painters quickly completed the first batch of orders. Gu Xiaoyou delivered the orders to various ladies, and also specially sent a few more copies to the ladies who came to the store before.

I would like to thank them both for their generosity and for promoting tissue packs.

The tissue packs were sent out, and in the evening of the same day the coachman brought back the entire balance, along with several exquisite and fragrant purses.

Gu Xiaoyou touched her purse and said with emotion: "It is such a beautiful enjoyment to be in a girl's business."

After saying that, I was so stimulated by the thought on my purse that I sneeze.

"Ah sneeze." Gu Xiaoyou rubbed her nose: "It's better to put it in the drawer. The girls' kindness is really hard to bear."

Putting her purse in the drawer, Gu Xiaoyou took out her mobile phone to study other patterns.

After a few days, many ladies came one after another to choose patterns.

In the store, there are not only the simple paintings drawn by Gu Xiaoyou, but also the unique and ingenious patterns of the painters, as well as the elegant poetry and ink of the scholars. There are a variety of styles to choose from.

In addition to cute patterns, ladies also like to be arty and order tissue packs from paper shops one after another.

There were many female customers in the shop, so Gu Xiaoyou specially asked Manager Zhang to recruit a few literate maids, trained them for a few days, and began to receive ladies in the shop.

In this way, tissue bags became popular in Beijing and even affected surrounding towns. Many people came here to order tissue bags.

Gu Xiaoyou simply transported tissue bags and paper towels to various places, which not only boosted the profits of the paper shop, but also brought new business to the express delivery station.

"Let's also send it to Youlian Paper Shop in Qingcheng County, so that Yang He can feel the craze in the capital." Gu Xiaoyou looked at the accounts of the past few days and said happily.

"Okay, I don't know if Yang He and Zhu Cheng are doing well." Zhou said while settling the accounts.

"Yeah, I've been busy lately, and I haven't thought about what happened in Qingcheng County for a long time." Gu Xiaoyou sighed, as if what happened in Qingcheng County happened yesterday and was forgotten in the blink of an eye.

"You can go back and take a look when you have time," Mrs. Zhou comforted.

"Okay." Gu Xiaoyou responded with a smile, and checked the accounts of several stores with Ms. Zhou. After sitting for a long time, she was a little tired, so she stretched and said: "Sister Zhou, you settle the accounts first, I will come in front of you."

Let’s go to the hall and have a look.”

"Well, you go and do your work." Mrs. Zhou replied without raising her head, concentrating on calculating the accounts in her hands.

Gu Xiaoyou saw Mrs. Zhou playing with the abacus skillfully and looked at it with admiration for a moment before turning and leaving.

Putting his hands behind his back, Gu Xiaoyou walked from the courier station to the paper shop and looked all the way. There was an endless stream of customers coming to each shop. The clerks and the newly hired maids were all generous and decent, and there was nothing wrong with them.

Gu Xiaoyou was a little satisfied and walked towards the book club where the business was the most deserted.

As soon as I walked into the bookstore, I saw it was full of people.

Gu Xiaoyou blinked in surprise, and there was confusion in her watery eyes for a moment. She must have gone to the wrong shop.

Confused, he exited the door and looked at the plaque on the door of the store, which clearly read the four characters "Jiumen Publishing House".

You're right. Why are there so many people today?

Gu Xiaoyou was puzzled and walked into the book club again with a slight surprise.

She took a closer look and saw that there were many young ladies and maids in the book club, flipping through books near the novel.

With some curiosity, Gu Xiaoyou quietly approached the ladies who were chatting softly.

"I like this story about Mr. Zhang and Miss Zhen. Miss Zhen dares to love and hate. She is really a good example for us ladies."

"I'm different from you. I like Miss Fu. She not only realized her dream by using her talents, but also met her lover."

"What you said is all right, but what I like most is that Mr. Wei is capable of bending, stretching, and being extraordinarily handsome."

"Young Master Wei is not as good as Mr. Su, he is strong in martial arts and resourceful."

"I see... you two are falling in love with each other."

"Oh, Sister Zheng, you are so annoying..."

Gu Xiaoyou couldn't bear to listen to the ladies' teasing and coquettish laughter, and rubbed the goosebumps on her arms.

However, he didn't expect that these girls would be interested in the love story in the book club. Seeing them selecting books and going to the counter to check out, Gu Xiaoyou's eyes were filled with smiles.

Her story with the storytellers was finally appreciated.

Gu Xiaoyou observed secretly for a day and found that these ladies had all gone to the paper shop to buy paper and then casually came to the book club to hang out.

Only then did she suddenly realize that customers who had ordered tissue packs would also hang out at the bookstore and business card shop, which inadvertently boosted the business of other shops on the street.

It seems that it is very important to have a prosperous shop on the street.

Gu Xiaoyou sighed with emotion, then went to the bookshelf where the ladies were just now and looked at the titles of the books. One of the books titled "The Love of King Cao" caught her attention.

"What kind of story is this?" Gu Xiaoyou flipped through it curiously, read a few lines, and discovered with a black thread that this was a story she had made up about an adult named Cao and a young lady named Wang.

The original story was very simple, just the story of an official named Cao and a girl named Wang.
