Chapter 1293: Chapter 1291: High-Level Network of Connections
For the club’s na, Wufu and Jun Wenqi had a verbal sparring match, back and forth, and still couldn’t decide. Instead, it was Master Gui who settled on one from their argunt.
"How about we na it Purple Yu Garden?" Master Gui said, "Purple naturally brings to mind the saying ’auspicious purple air cos from the east,’ symbolizing prestige. Yu describes a place big enough, and our garden fits the bill!"
Everyone recited the na once; it sounded acceptable. Wufu didn’t really mind much. As long as the club becos famous, what does the na matter? What’s important is the service and taste inside the club, that’s what brings pride.
After unanimously deciding on the na, a plaque still needed to be made. Master Gui looked at Wufu and said, "I heard Old Master ng’s calligraphy is exceptional. If we could get him to personally write for us..."
Poof!
Wufu sprayed his tea out.
Jun Wenqi quickly dodged and hurriedly grabbed a handkerchief to wipe himself, while pointing at Wufu and shouted, "Do you have any sense of decorum? Are you trying to provoke soone on purpose?" He was wearing new clothes!
Wufu couldn’t be bothered with him, and said to Master Gui, "You want the illustrious scholar from a literary family to write a plaque for our lively and vibrant club. What are you thinking? Like you said, trying to provoke soone?"
It might sound nice calling it a club, where services are on offer but nothing more, but at the end of the day, it’s a place of amusent, just a bit more high-end and extravagant, those scholars wouldn’t dare hang their writing here as a plaque, they’d be mortified!
Master Gui’s suggestion was definitely provocative.
Wait a minute, he ntioned Old Master ng...
Wufu quickly looked over, Master Gui raised his teacup with a look that said "I’ve already figured you out," making Wufu glare at him: "When did you find out?"
Master Gui smiled: "I know what I should know."
Wufu narrowed his eyes.
Jun Wenqi, feeling puzzled, glanced at them and asked, "What kind of riddle are you two speaking in?"
Wufu snorted, "Forget about Old Master ng’s writing, but the Sage of Calligraphy’s, we might be able to just about get."
"The Sage of Calligraphy? The one hailed as the madman of Literary Forest? His bold calligraphy is said to be unparalleled, and he’s quite the charming character himself." Jun Wenqi leaned in, said, "If we could actually get him to inscribe a plaque for our club, the prestige would instantly go up."
Hmm, strange, how could he say the word prestige, could it be like people coming together and influencing each other?
Wufu said, "Leave it to ." Then said, "If we’re going high-end, we can’t operate like a typical venue of amusent. We need to set up a mbership system, and raise the overall price another level."
"Raise it again?" Jun Wenqi said, "Our club’s prices are already so of the highest in the Capital."
"It’s not enough, raise it a bit more. We want to be truly high-end, why are you trying to save Silver for others? Those without Silver can’t co, and even if they have Silver, without mbership, they can’t enter to spend and enjoy." Wufu said, "Rest assured, no matter how expensive, people will co. High-end should be truly high-end, if you make it low-end, it’ll be no different from the others out there, and it won’t show any high-grade taste, wouldn’t that just be belittling people?"
"mbership system, and a cap needs to be set. This year, our first opening, we can accept a hundred mbers, and from then on, only five each year. Without a certain qualification, one can’t join. Once they do join, the resources here will bring them even more, whether in business or other matters. Tell , isn’t this prestige high enough?"
Jun Wenqi and Master Gui exchanged glances; if this were truly the case, then those who could co to spend here would be either rich or noble. This would be the highest standard of a network of personal connections.
