Chapter 1592 - 1591 Booming Business_1
By now, the queue in front of the Imperial Manor had already stretched to the gates of the Capital City, which wasn’t far from the manor itself. Today’s customers included not only the wealthy from within the city but also those who had traveled from afar. The entire upper class of Daqi had turned up, each bringing several horse-drawn carriages. The length of the queue was somewhat exaggerated.
This situation truly exceeded Qiao Xiaomai’s expectations. She knew many people would come today, but she had not anticipated such numbers.
Yang Ye and Yang Hao hadn’t expected it either. It was the first time Daqi held such an event and both brothers had come along.
