Luo Chen had no idea that another grand gift was on its way to him.
After sending off Mi Junping, he busied himself once again.
Table and chairs, tea utensils, customized porcelain cups, and coal stoves…
Each item, not particularly valuable, yet they were tedious. Under Luo Chen’s arrangement, they gradually were prepared.
In this process, the Broken Mountain Gang had arranged several bodyguards who did a great deal of credit, specifically responsible for running errands.
By contrast, his chosen shop manager and milk tea sister, Feng Xia, didn’t participate in these affairs.
What she needed to do was to familiarize herself with boiling tea soup, and learn to make milk tea according to Luo Chen’s formula.
Besides that, Luo Chen also sought help from Gu Caiyi.
Most cultivators have a certain extent of artistic fetishes. Whether it’s drinking wine or tea, simple direct serving was insufficient, an elegant method is required.
That was, a sense of ceremony.
This fetish for elegance became extremely obvious in rich cultivators.
For example, someone might like playing with folding fans for no reason, not knowing how cold the biting winter was.
The Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion understood this well, and naturally, so did Gu Caiyi from her time there.
In her spare time, he had Gu Caiyi teach Feng Xia a few elegant tea-brewing methods that were aesthetically pleasing.
Or rather, it was more than just a method.
It was the combination of the movement of her body, posture, eye expression, hand movements, and more.
In short, what was finally presented to Luo Chen was a scene of a virtuous woman peacefully making tea.
The Fit Dao Robe highlighted her exquisite figure.
She wore a plain white blouse on her body which added an aura of tranquility.
Her hair was styled in a slightly high bun, which was commonly worn by female Daoists.
Underneath the two turquoise ribbons, strands of fine hair fell, revealing a face that wasn’t striking but was endearing to look at.
With the addition of the elegant Feng Xia adding the Fu Zhu Deer milk to the herbal water mixture, a steaming cup of Fu Zhu Milk Tea was successfully made.
“Big Brother Qin, would you like to taste it?”
Qin Liangchen hastily waved his hand, “No thank you, I’d rather die than drink this stuff.”
“Never mind, I’ll do it!”
Luo Chen took the floral porcelain cup and took a sip through a bamboo straw recently carved by the bodyguard.
Feng Xia looked at him nervously, while Qin Liangchen waited to gloat.
In the East Wing Room, Duan Feng half-reclined on the rocking chair, curiously observing the scene.
Without making everyone wait too long, Luo Chen nodded slightly.
“It’s good. It’s almost identical to the milk tea I made.”
Upon hearing this, Feng Xia couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
She tugged at her Dao robe somewhat awkwardly, “When are we going to open business?”
“Tomorrow! There’s a bunch of death-row inmates set to fight against Demon Beasts, isn’t there? There’ll be plenty of potential customers then!
Luo Chen finalized the opening time. It had already been postponed long enough.
There’s no better day than the present. The sooner they open, the sooner they can profit.
“Also, I want to emphasize something. Sister Xia, try to talk as little as possible during business hours. Just make and sell the milk tea.”
Feng Xia naturally understood why she should keep quiet.
Still, she was a little worried, “Can we really pull it off?”
“Don’t worry, I’ve got everything under control!”
Luo Chen was brimming with confidence, and a knowing smile spread across his face.
Seeing his confidence, the rest of them seemed to catch it, their worries abating.
“Xiao Duan, we might be busy today. I’ve prepared your medicine. Just heat it up at lunch.”
The sky was just starting to brighten, and a hoarse voice came from the living room.
Duan Feng responded with a grunt.
He knew that the shop named “Honey Snow Ice City” would be opening today. The boss was Luo Chen, and the shopkeeper was Feng Xia.
In fact, in that shop, both inside and out, the only one who would be bustling about and working would be Feng Xia.
But even so, he was happy for Feng Xia.
Sister Xia was a great person and having a job that allowed her to support herself was wonderful.
And the man offering this job…
Duan Feng’s gaze landed on the empty jade bottle by the bed, and warmth filled his heart.
On the White Stone Plaza, the sky was getting brighter.
Many people had already started to get busy, including Yuan Xiaoyue, who had set up her stall early.
As the Dao Debate Platform gets more and more popular, the commercial atmosphere on White Stone Plaza was also becoming increasingly lively.
Even on regular days without any exciting battles, the stall owners here would still habitually set up their stands.
Occasionally, these stall owners would cast their eyes on the nearby closed shops.
They would fantasize about how long they would need to save their Spirit Stones before they could rent their own shop.
Keep working hard, your days will get better!
Today, however, these stall owners noticed that one small shop had already opened for business early.
A few unique flower baskets were placed on both sides.
“Is this a newly opened shop?”
Above the shop, a wooden plaque displayed the name.
“Honey Snow Ice City”
“What do they sell?”
As she listened to a few acquaintances discuss the new shop, Yuan Xiaoyue was filled with anticipation.
Initially, the milk tea was first given to her to sell, but because it was too simple and tasted bad, she didn’t sell much.
Now Brother Luo Chen had come up with a new approach and launched it in such a grand manner.
It has to be a hit!
As the number of people on the plaza increased, some of them noticed the “Honey Snow Ice City” shop.
They didn’t know what the shop sold, so they weren’t interested.
Suddenly, an incredibly sweet voice sounded.
“You love me and I love you
Sweet as honey in Honey Snow Ice City
You love me and I love you
Sweet as honey in Honey Snow Ice City
Everyone was taken aback, listening to the repetitive lyrics..
