Ye Qing took out a piece of cloth and asked Xiangxiang to talk about the characteristics of the cloth. She wanted to test the results of Ye Fan's training.

Xiangxiang was not stage-shy either. She was a village girl. Her family was rich now, and she had been brought up in pampered surroundings.

All the girls in the village can read and write, and they all take Ye Qing as their goal and go out to see the world.

Ye Qing was also willing to give them a chance. They could handle it in the shop, and they would not suffer any loss when they entered their husband's family in the future.

Xiangxiang looked at Ye Qing with admiration and introduced the fabric very professionally with a very good attitude. What she said was very touching.

Ye Qing listened to Xiangxiang's introduction with a smile, and looked up to see a carriage parked at the door.

Ye Qing patted Xiangxiang's hand, and Xiangxiang immediately shut up. She followed Ye Qing's gaze and saw a graceful and elegant lady being helped out of the car by a maid.

Xiangxiang looked at Ye Qing again, and Ye Qing nodded in agreement. Xiangxiang quickly walked out to greet him.

Ye Qing did not stand up. This was the hall, which was considered a public area.

Ye Fan was called out, "Madam, welcome to Linglong Pavilion. Today, all fabrics in our store are 40% off."

The lady didn't say anything, but a pretty little maid next to her spoke.

"This is our Madam Liu. We were passing by your place. Do you have a private room?"

Ye Fan was not annoyed and respectfully asked Xiangxiang to take the person into private room number one.

Xiangxiang looked a little nervous. They had never seen such a noble lady in Kaoshan Village.

Xiangxiang led the person into the private room, served snacks and tea, and then handed various fabric samples to the maid who had just spoken.

Ye Qing was also a little nervous. She listened for a while next to the private room. Only the store owner knew this place, and other people certainly could not hear the conversation inside.

Ye Qing had just stood up when Ye Fan came over. This was their first time receiving the lady, so there couldn't be any mistakes.

The two of them didn't say anything, but listened carefully to the conversation inside.

"Madam, you must wash your hands. There is a place to wash your hands here." Xiangxiang's voice rang out.

It was still the maid who spoke, "Liu'er, follow Miss Xiangxiang and help Madam get some water."

There was a rustling sound from inside, and Xiangxiang's voice sounded again, "Madam, this is the fruit produced in our village, please try it."

"Your store is very well prepared, which is a bit beyond my expectation."

"Thank you for the compliment, ma'am. This is our first day of business. Please give us some pointers so that we can make further improvements."

The lady was also talkative. "It's already good. At this dock, it can meet everyone's requirements."

Xiangxiang watched the maids help the lady wash her hands before the maid gave the fabric sample to the lady.

The lady was not in a good mood. She was exhausted after being on the boat for more than ten days.

The maid took out the small knife she carried with her and cut the fruit into small pieces to make it easier for the lady to eat.

The lady picked up the silver fork she had brought, elegantly picked up a piece of watermelon, and slowly put it into her mouth.

The maidservant saw that the lady was eating happily, and then happily went to peel the pomelo for her.

"This watermelon is good. I'll ask where you bought it later so we can bring some back for the master to try."

The maid lowered her head and responded, looking at Xiang Xiang in amazement. It was not easy to be a maid.

At first, the lady was casually flipping through the fabric samples. After touching a few, she sat up straight and began to look at them carefully one by one.

Xiangxiang is very discerning. She will help introduce whatever Mrs. Liu likes.

Xiangxiang only introduced the fabrics and never urged Mrs. Liu to buy anything, which made Mrs. Liu feel very relaxed.

Mrs. Liu's family is a merchant family. The ship is not due to leave until tomorrow. She was bored on the ship, so she took her people downstairs for a walk.

After Mrs. Liu asked about the price, she asked someone to find Mr. Liu.

Xiangxiang called the shop assistant over and asked him to go find Mr. Liu with the credentials given by Mrs. Liu.

Xiangxiang served some more snacks and chatted with Mrs. Liu while waiting for Mr. Liu.

Mr. Liu came very quickly. They were unfamiliar with this dock. A strange fellow came to him with his belongings.

Mr. Liu came quickly with a few waiters, entered the private room, and first showed concern for Mrs. Liu.

"Ma'am, are you all right?"

Mrs. Liu and Mr. Liu have been married for many years, so they understood Mr. Liu's worries as soon as they heard it.

"I asked him to find you. I found some good materials here and wanted you to take a look."

Mr. Liu sat on the chair that Xiangxiang brought over. He felt a little uncomfortable at first, but after sitting for a while, he felt comfortable and soft, and his body leaned on the backrest.

Xiangxiang made an excuse to go out and pour tea, leaving the couple room to discuss.

Ye Qing and Ye Fan also returned to the front hall. It was a bit inappropriate to eavesdrop on the couple's conversation.

After a cup of tea, Xiangxiang returned to private room No. 1 with the brewed tea.

Mr. Liu and his wife sat and talked, and it seemed that they had already discussed it.

"Miss, is your shopkeeper here? I want to buy some more cloth."

"Yes, Master Liu, please wait a moment. I will go out and call our shopkeeper."

Mr. Liu was a connoisseur of goods. He could tell at a glance that this material was extraordinary. He would definitely make a fortune if he sold it to the north.

Ye Fan also had a premonition, so he had already packed everything and was waiting at the counter.

Ye Fan and Xiang Xiang arrived at the private room. Xiang Xiang stopped talking and Ye Fan negotiated the price with the two of them.

"Master Liu, this price really cannot be changed. Our store has just opened and we are offering a 40% discount. Please calculate how much money you have saved."

Mr. Liu has traveled all over the country for a long time, so he knew that this price was very reasonable as soon as he heard it.

But Mr. Liu was used to bargaining, so he still haggled over the price with Ye Fan.

Ye Fan was young and inexperienced, and he was persuaded several times, but after thinking about the cost, he still did not give in.

Xiang Xiang reminded at the side, "Master Liu, Madam Liu, did you bring any books? There is a bookstore on our dock. If you can donate a handwritten copy of a book, you can get 100 kilograms of cloth and take it away at a 10% discount on top of the 40% discount."

Ye Fan nodded beside him, agreeing with Xiangxiang's statement.

Mr. Liu thought about the books he had collected from the south for his son on the ship. He was reluctant to give them to his son, but he would be willing to give him a handwritten copy.

"There is also a good thing. Shopkeeper, please leave me 300 pieces of cloth. I will go get the 10% discount coupon first and then pay."

"Mr. Liu, please pay a deposit of 1% first. We don't have enough fabric in our warehouse, so we need to get it from the workshop." Xiangxiang took out the store's rules and showed them to Mrs. Liu.

Mr. Liu really liked these fabrics, so he readily gave them fifty taels of silver and took the contract to the bookstore to find out more about the situation.

Mrs. Liu was happy and helped buy goods for the family. She gave Xiangxiang a silver melon seed as a reward and got on a carriage to go to the restaurant for dinner.

Ye Fan's eyes were full of excitement as he went to report the situation to Ye Qing.

Ye Qing was also very happy. This was the first big business order, so he gave everyone in the store a big red envelope so that everyone could share in the joy.
