Chapter 712: Professional mermaids
It might be either a restaurant or a bar, that"s something that he has already expected but Su Wan always had the habit of doing something unexpected, this time too she did not do what Lin Rui has expected from her instead she sat up straight and clapped her hands as she said, " I want to start a professional mermaid attraction there."
Lin Rui was surprised by what Su Wan said again and immediately asked, " What..what did you say? Professional what?"
"Professional mermaid," she said as she picked up a clean set of paper from the table and then started drawing with the brush after dipping it in the ink. After working with Lin Yu, Su Wan was more or less perfect at drawing, she finished the drawing of the professional mermaid and then handed it to Lin Rui causing her poor husband to blush red.
" This…I don"t think this is going to work, I mean the clothes——"
"What"s wrong with them?" Su Wan rolled her eyes, she was already prepared to receive criticism before she brought the topic up but when she was in the modern world she was always in awe upon seeing the aquariums with women acting as a mermaid, one of her friends was a co-owner of the same kind of aquarium and the money she made was no joke. Despite the city having two aquariums of the same kind, the money her friend earned was really good, if she was to open the first ever this kind of aquarium with women dressed up as mermaids and performing tricks, she was sure that her earnings would not be any less than what her friend earned.
She continued after thinking carefully, " Did you not say that in the capital you saw women performing with even more flimsy dresses? Compared to them this is still better." She paused and then added, " What"s more if I was to buy young women from the brothel and have them learn these skills instead of what they are learning in the brothel I might be saving a lot of lives."
Su Wan has already thought things through, no woman from a decent background would be willing to come into this profession in this era. They would think that it was too despicable and she will even suffer criticism when opening the aquarium but that will only be until people understand how much of a fun thing this aquarium can be, by then even women from the so-called decent background would think that it is not bad.
But the thing was she could not wait around hoping for them to find the attraction she has to get on with as soon as possible, that was why she decided to buy a few young and beautiful women from the brothel to start the business. At least with her business ideas, she will be able to give a good life to a few women whose lives will be ruined anyway.
Lin Rui understood what Su Wan was saying but he did not agree at once, instead, he asked her to tell him everything carefully and in detail, and so did as he asked. She told him all about the business idea and when she told him about how she will be using the mermaids as a way to attract attention to the fief that will be under her charge, Lin Rui"s eyes were shining.
He nodded and said, " This is an exciting and unique plan, I did not think that we could do so many things with just this small move."fr???e??oν??. c??
What was more this was what Su Wan has come up with, he could only indulge her in whatever she wanted to do.
Su Wan also knew that even though Lin Rui understood her plan, there was a high chance that he understood the risks of her plan as well but he was still willing to agree with her plan. She smiled and hugged his arm as she said, " Then I will be leaving the task of convincing the others to you, okay?"
" What?" Before Lin Rui could say anything more Su Wan jumped on her feet and then ran away, leaving him alone in the room to support his head, so, this was why she was being so coquettish to him. He was the only one who was a fool and did not understand her plan, this last thing was what Su Wan was aiming for dumping the responsibility of making his brothers agree to her plan.
He shook his head and sighed, " That little imp, she sure knows how to take advantage of us to the fullest."
Never before he thought about it but Su Wan really made him feel like a disposable man.
He looked down at the mermaid that was drawn on the paper and leaned his head against his clenched knuckles. He has to admit that even though the plan was a bit risky, it had its own charm. If they plan it efficiently and properly then Lin Rui was sure that they will be able to get hold of the nerve of the entire fief.
What was more even if Su Wan was to teach the local vendors and butchers how to take care of those weird fishes that they have no idea how to sell, they would not be able to earn much. The main point lies in attracting rich people from the capital and other towns, as long as they could attract them and sell the charm of that place, they will surely be able to make a profit.
" But how to convince my brothers?" Especially his second brother who was still in denial of letting Su Wan go to the fief, he hasn"t even agreed to let Su Wan go to the fief will he agree to let her start her own business there? It will be one of those impossible tasks. No wonder Su Wan has dumped the task of bringing this matter up in front of his brothers on his shoulders.
Lin Rui tapped his fingers on the table before he pursed his lips and nodded. " I think I can do this."
