Qian Yixiu then asked Wan Dazhong, "Uncle Wan, what kind of people are these foreigners? Are they the same as Westerners?"
Wan Dazhong smiled and said, "They should be the same."
Qian Yeejin knew his grandfather had sold pearls bought from Westerners for good money and thought the lotus seeds from this foreigner’s hands would definitely be right, so he chuckled. He felt that his sister was really smart to be able to buy such good things.
The Wuxi Teahouse in Xizhou Mansion was one of the best tea houses in Xizhou and was also located on Xida Street, not far from the Treasure Silver Building.
The Wuxi Teahouse in Xishan County was a tea business that encompassed tea buying, making, selling, and drinking. Externally, it was referred to as a tea building, but in reality, it was a tea company. Its main responsibility was business management, and it also oversaw a large tea garden under the company. Therefore, as the main shopkeeper, Shopkeeper Cui would always be there to oversee things.
The Wuxi Teahouse in Xizhou Mansion, however, only sold and served tea, and its décor was even more luxurious than the headquarters. Liang Gao was standing at the entrance waiting for them, and when he saw them arrive, he came forward with a smile and said, "Our young master and Young Master Cousin are listening to storytelling. Mr. Storytelling is talking about ’The Three Kingdoms,’ which is very interesting to listen to."
While speaking, he led them to the large hall on the second floor. They saw that in the front there was a high platform with a high table in the center and a storyteller standing behind it who was very excited in his narration.
Below the platform were many tables, each with tea and Old Brother’s pastries on them. Many men sat at the tables, leisurely drinking tea and eating pastries while listening to the storytelling.
Liang Jinzhao and Song Huaijin were sitting at a table completely engrossed in listening. When they saw the group arrive, they just motioned for them to sit down and continued listening.
