Chu Yehui asked an assistant to help him queue, intending to explore other stalls. “Brother, where can I buy a batch of bowls?” he inquired.

The young man thought for a moment and suggested, “For bowls, you should visit Li’s porcelain. They’ve introduced some innovative designs that are quite unique.”

Chu Yehui nodded. “Let’s go take a look.”

Through the crowd, Chu Yehui was led by the young man to the office of the Li porcelain.

Along the way, Chu Yehui was captivated by the lakeside paintings and considered buying a few for his shop. He stopped and asked the young man, “I’m interested in buying these paintings. Can you show me where to find them?”

Pointing to the stage, the young man replied, “These are painted by Miss Chu Qingzhi. If you want to buy them, you’ll have to wait until she’s available.”

Chu Yehui smiled upon hearing this, impressed by the transformation of the Chu family since Chu Fifth’s return. “Thank you,” he said, acknowledging the young man’s help.

Seeing that there were also so many people waiting at the Li porcelain’s stall, the young man asked, “Young Master, do you need to buy anything else? If you purchase here, all the merchants will give you a lot of gifts and discounts. It’s very worth it.”

Chu Yehui thought for a moment. “Do you sell tables and chairs?”

The young man nodded. “Yes, yes, yes. This way.”

After arranging for someone to line up, Chu Yehui followed the young man to the furniture stall.

Chu Qingzhi had arranged several such guides, promising them a commission on successful sales, which motivated them to be highly active.

A girl brought two shopkeepers to Chu Xujin. “Brother Xujin, they’re here to collect their things.”

“Alright, line up. I’ll get it for you immediately.” Chu Xujin was even busier. Other than him, there was also Ge Lihua, Wu Yaqing, and Hong Yujun. The four of them were equally busy.

“Okay.”

The shopkeeper standing in front of the table handed the contract to Chu Xujin. “Mine is a thousand taels of silver deal. What can I get?”

“A tea set.” Chu Xujin pointed at the three samples on the table. One was a bird pattern, one was a flower pattern, and the other was a cute pattern. “You can choose any one of the three.”

The shopkeeper looked over and pointed at the tea set with the cute pattern, asking, “Do you have one with tiger patterns? I was born in the year of the tiger and would like one with tiger patterns.”

Chu Xujin responded, “These porcelain pieces are very popular, I’m not sure if we have it, but I’ll look for you.”

The shopkeeper politely thanked, “Much appreciated.”

He opened the box and searched for a while. With luck, he found a set. “Welcome to Guangxi Garden again.”

There are thousands of items in Guangxi Garden now; there’s always something for everyone

“Alright, I’ll head home first and come back later.”

“Take care.”

Chu Xujin recorded the shopkeeper’s name and the amount of the transaction, planning to calculate the commission for the guide.

Yan Yixian arrived at the spot where Chu Xuyuan and Chu XuYao were playing the guqin, greeting the two youngsters.

Seeing Yan Yixian, they were overjoyed, “Teacher.”

Chu XuYao quickly offered Yan Yixian a stool, “Teacher, please sit.”

Chu Xuyuan brought over tea, “Teacher, please have some tea.”

Yan Yixian looked at the two children affectionately, “Don’t mind me, carry on with what you’re doing.”

Walking around, he felt much lighter in his heart. No one paid attention to his limp; at most, they gave him an extra glance for his posture but no mockery or ridicule as he had feared. He had been overthinking all along.

Chu XuYao asked with concern, “Teacher, have you bought anything yet?”

Yan Yixian replied, “Not yet, I just arrived. But I’m thinking of buying some treats for Blue Glaze. Do you have any recommendations?”

“Cats like the taste of fish,” Chu Xuyao thought for a moment. “There’s a vendor selling dried sea fish here. Teacher, I can take you there.”

The vendor selling seafood was a traveling merchant. Being far from the sea, the capital hardly had any sea products for sale.

Yan Yixian nodded, “Okay.”

The three arrived at a small stall displaying various sea products like dried shrimp, squid, whitebait, seaweed, sea cucumber, scallops, kelp, and many more, all emanating a strong sea aroma.

Chu XuYao pointed to the stall, “Teacher, Blue Glaze would probably like these.”

“What would you like to buy?” the traveling merchant asked with a smile, his first time experiencing such good sales. Several items were sold out, and he even had pre-orders, all thanks to the food festival.

Yan Yixian requested, “Please introduce them to me.”

“Sure thing!” The merchant readily complied, introducing the items on his stall to the customers.

After thinking it over, Yan Yixian decided, “I’ll take five catties each of dried shrimp, squid, and whitebait.”

The merchant happily responded, “Right away.”

After paying, Yan Yixian stored his purchases in his carriage and continued to explore Guangxi Garden.

“Xuyuan, Xuyao…” Jiang Zhaozong called the two, then greeted Yan Yixian, “Teacher Yan, you’re here too?”

Yan Yixian nodded with a smile, “We’re planning to buy a guqin. Would you like to join us?”

Jiang Zhaozong agreed, “Sure, I was thinking of buying one too.”

Coincidentally, Xu Guannan and several classmates passed by. After a brief chat, they all went together to a stall selling guqins.

As the opening continued, more and more people flocked to Guangxi Garden. Those who left carried bags of purchases, and even more people entered. By noon, many went home for lunch, so the crowd in the garden thinned, but still, many stayed to dine there.

In the morning, Chu Qingzhi hurriedly introduced the goods of the first one hundred and fifty shops. She planned to continue the introductions in the afternoon.

After she stepped down from the stage, Tang Jinghong handed her a bowl of pear juice to soothe her throat, “Drink this to moisten your throat.”

Chu Qingzhi took the juice and drank it in one gulp. Her voice was a bit hoarse from talking all morning, and it was uncomfortable.

Tang Jinghong showed concern, “Go rest in the room, I’ll prepare some food.”

Chu Qingzhi nodded. “Okay.”

Chu Qingyan followed Chu Qingzhi to the room.

Chu Qingzhi sat down, and Chu Qingyan went behind her, offering kindly, “Sister, let me massage your shoulders.”

Chu Qingzhi reached back to touch Chu Qingyan’s head, “Thank you, dear.”

Chu Qingyan smiled sweetly, placing her small hands on Chu Qingzhi’s shoulders and gently massaging.

Chu Qingzhi took the plan book in her hand, flipping it open to review the product introductions for the afternoon.

Outside, Third Master Lu came towards Wu Yaqing and others, inviting them to lunch. Seeing the long queue at the table, he asked, “Need help?”

Wu Yaqing murmured softly, “Offering help now, where were you earlier?”

Third Master Lu, with good hearing, caught Wu Yaqing’s complaint, “Isn’t it because I saw someone so capable, I assumed I couldn’t be of much help?”

In truth, he had been helping, managing the backstage affairs with Tang

Jinghong. Wu Yaqing didn’t see it and accused him of being idle and lazy..
