Chapter 1179 - 1185: Nangong Yi’s Three Obediences and Four Virtues (5)
Cai Wei just managed to suppress a couple of laughs, and although it was a bit embarrassing, her heart still felt sweet.
After having her breakfast and taking a bath, Cai Wei felt she had almost recovered her strength. So she left the palace with Huan Qiu and headed to the mansion Nangong Yi had given her to use as a warehouse, where she stored all the glass from Space. She then dispatched Huan Qiu to inform the glass shop’s shopkeeper, telling him that if the glass sold out, he could come here to pick up more!
The thousands of pieces of glass that the Sun Family Brothers brought back last time were not enough to sell; they sold out in just four days. The shopkeeper was feeling gloomy, but luckily for him, Cai Wei had sent Huan Qiu with a message, and upon hearing it, the shopkeeper wasted no time in taking people to fetch the glass!
Cai Wei wasn’t idle either; after sending off the glass shop’s shopkeeper, she went into Space to harvest Green Manzi.
Previously, she had made an agreement with Manager Wen from Mi Fangzhai to invest a hundred Jin of Green Manzi flowers each month into the business. Though it only accounted for one share, she thought that any business that could earn silver was not to be despised, no matter how small. Besides, once she had slowly figured out the ins and outs of the rouge powder industry, she would withdraw her shares and start her own venture!
When Manager Wen from Mi Fangzhai saw Cai Wei fulfill her promise by bringing a cartload of fresh Green Manzi flowers, he was overjoyed, showing teeth but not eyes, as he hurriedly ordered his staff to weigh them. After weighing was completed, he brought out a prepared contract and signed an agreement with Cai Wei to transfer one share.
Manager Wen said, "Miss, you mentioned the other day that you would gift a few Rare Flowers to Wen. I wonder if you have brought the Rare Flowers?"
Cai Wei replied, "Of course."
Saying so, she took a two-inch tall sapling out of the basket she had brought. The sapling had tender green leaves that were as beautiful as Jade, but it was unclear what kind of flower it was.
Manager Wen saw the unimpressive little sapling Cai Wei had brought and couldn’t help but frown slightly, forcing a smile he said, "Miss, I’m ignorant and don’t recognize the variety of flower you’ve brought. Could you enlighten me?"
Cai Wei asked, "Have you ever heard of Blue Snow Lotus?"
