Chapter 1225 Noble
“It looks like they’re selling the latest fashions from Yan State…” Wei Zhong stood beside Bai Qingyan and asked respectfully, “Miss, do you want to go in and take a look?”
After the implementation of the new policy, Bai Qingyan discussed with General Lu that any merchants from other countries who came to the Great Zhou to open a shop, in addition to registering with the government, must also indicate on the sign that the shop is a Yan merchant’s shop, in order to facilitate supervision.
Originally, Bai Qingyan was not very interested and was about to leave, but he heard the tailor with a tape measure wrapped around his neck say with a smile: “Yes, yes, yes, our Ninth Prince’s future princess likes this style, and this style sells very well in the capital!”
“Your Ninth Prince’s future princess? Is your Ninth Prince of Yan engaged?” The lady asked hurriedly, as if she had heard some strange news.
“That’s right. People say our Ninth Prince is a ruthless man, but he is very obedient to our future princess. Our Yan State is full of sketchbooks of our Ninth Prince and future princess! If you are interested, Madam, I will send the clothes to your house when they are ready.”
The Ninth Prince’s future princess?
Bai Qingyan paused and said with a smile, “Let’s go in and take a look. I’m very interested in the sketchbooks of the Ninth Prince and the future Princess.”
Holding Chunzhi’s hand, he stepped into the clothing shop. The waiter knew at first glance that Bai Qingyan was not an ordinary wealthy lady. Seeing that the lady who came in looked like a fairy, he was stunned for a moment… He couldn’t help but think that if they, who make clothes, could get recognition in the circle of rich ladies, they would be very wealthy in the future, so he hurried to greet her.
“Hey, Madam! Please come in! Serve her some tea!” the waiter said hurriedly. “Please take a seat. Do you have any fabrics or clothing styles you like? We have everything here.”
As they were talking, the tea came up.
Bai Qingyan picked up the teacup and smelled it. Yunwu tea… good tea.
She didn’t drink it, but put it on the small table beside her, and said with a smile: “I heard that your store has the clothes style that the future princess of your Yan State’s ninth prince likes?”
“Oh, Madam, you are really good at choosing!” As he said that, the boy hurriedly asked someone to bring the finished clothes over, and said with a smile, “Our Ninth Prince is a famous cold-hearted man. Who would have thought that when he saw our future princess wearing this dress, he was moved and insisted on asking the Queen Mother for permission to marry her! That’s why… our Yunshang shop is so famous that we dare to open it in Da Zhou.”
Chunzhi thought of the Ninth Prince who came with his troops to help, and how the eldest girl stayed by his side after he was injured and fainted. She took a breath of cold air, but couldn’t help but feel sorry for her own eldest girl.
She glanced at Bai Qingyan and couldn’t help asking, “Which family in your Yan State is your Ninth Prince’s future princess from?”
“She is the daughter of our Yan State Minister Meng, the most beautiful woman in our Yan State, Meng Zhaorong. She was as famous as Princess Liu Ruofu of Jin State back then. I think many people know that she and our Ninth Prince are a perfect match made in heaven. When the war in Xiliang is over and the Ninth Prince returns home in glory, I guess the Queen Mother of our Yan State will make the decision and arrange this important event for the Ninth Prince and Miss Meng!”
Chunzhi became even more anxious. She couldn’t help but feel worried for Bai Qingyan: “Your Ninth Prince…”
“I heard that you still have the notebooks of the Ninth Prince and your future princess?” Bai Qingyan said with a smile without waiting for Chunzhi to finish.
“Yes! If you are interested, I will send the clothes to your house when they are ready…” said the waiter with a smile.
“I’m pregnant now, so if I want to do it, I have to wait until I give birth. Otherwise, my belly will get bigger day by day, and I’m afraid it won’t fit…” Bai Qingyan glanced at Wei Zhong.
Wei Zhong understood what was going on, stepped forward, took out some silver from his sleeve and handed it to the waiter, saying with a smile, “Our lady likes to read storybooks to kill time during her pregnancy. Can you sell us a copy of that storybook? We will definitely come back to make clothes for her after she gives birth successfully.”
“This…” The waiter hesitated.
“Give this lady a copy.” A clear voice came from behind.
Bai Qingyan raised his eyes and saw a slender girl wearing a plain silk veil.
“Yes, Miss Meng…” The waiter quickly saluted to the girl.
The girl looked towards Bai Qingyan, was startled when she saw Bai Qingyan’s beautiful facial features, then nodded slightly, and went to the back with her maid.
“Miss, that lady… is really beautiful.” The maid who was supporting the girl whispered to her master.
“Yes, she is really stunningly beautiful! She is so frank and honest without any attempt to hide anything.” The girl gently stroked the veil on her face, “So, wearing a veil…it makes me look mysterious.”
“Miss, what are you talking about! After all, that lady is a married woman, and you are not married yet, so you should be more careful!” The maid said hurriedly, “Miss, if Master Cui were here, he would definitely give the clothes to that lady. If that lady wore our clothes, she would be a living signboard when she went out. Master Cui gave this shop to you, and it is your shop. You have to plan for it! What do you think… do you want to give the clothes to that lady?”
“We won’t stay here long!” Miss Meng whispered.
“It doesn’t matter how long you stay here. This shop was given to you by Master Cui. It’s your shop anyway, so you have to take good care of it!” the maid advised. “Even if we will leave soon, this shop can only be sold at a good price if it does good business!”
Hearing this, Miss Meng chuckled, as if she had been persuaded: “The lady is pregnant. If we measure her size now, it won’t fit her. Why not make a good relationship with her now? When she gives birth in the future, we can tailor a piece of clothing for her and give it to her.”
“Young lady is really smart! Then I will send someone to follow her, so that we can know which family that lady belongs to!”
“Um!”
The steward had already given the order, and the waiter hurriedly rejected the silver handed over by Wei Zhong and said, “Madam, please wait a moment. I will get it for you.”
Originally, they made clothes and gave away books, and then gave away storybooks when the clothes were finished, in order to increase sales. Unexpectedly, someone came who only wanted to buy the storybooks and not the clothes.

Wei Zhong booked a private room in a restaurant, which was on the upper floor. He could see the street view of the long street outside by opening the window.
Bai Qingyan sat down by the window and looked through the notebook he got from Yunshang’s shop today.
The guards of the Bai family told Wei Zhong that after they came out of the shop called Yunshang, the people in the shop had been following them. Wei Zhong guessed that the people in the shop must have seen that Bai Qingyan had an extraordinary demeanor, so they wanted to see which family’s lady she was so that they could establish friendship and do business with her in the future, so he didn’t pay much attention to it.
The third update, continue to ask for monthly tickets…
