The Zhaixing Tower was not far from here, and Wen Shutang and Xiao Yizhuo arrived there quickly.
The shopkeeper Feng Shu had been standing at the door, looking around anxiously. As soon as he saw Wen Shutang and his wife, his eyes immediately lit up and he quickly walked forward to greet them.
"Madam Wen, you are finally here. Our Young Master and Master Pei are waiting for you on the second floor. Come up quickly."
"What happened? Why are you looking for me in such a hurry?" Wen Shutang asked with some confusion.
Feng Shu smiled and shook his head, explaining, "Nothing happened. It's just that Master Pei brought an important person here today. I guess he wanted to introduce him to Madam Wen. I thought I couldn't neglect him, so I quickly sent someone to look for Madam Wen."
Wen Shutang nodded in understanding. So that's how it was. She thought something bad had happened.
After hearing what Feng Shu said, Wen Shutang felt relieved, but a series of questions also arose in his mind.
Big shot? What big shot could come to this small place? And those who can be called big shots must have extraordinary status.
All Wen Shutang could think of were the merchants far away in the capital. After all, Pei Sheng was going to be an imperial merchant in the future, so he would definitely have to do business with people in the capital.
Thinking of this, Wen Shutang turned around and glanced at Xiao Yizhuo. His identity was still very sensitive. If the person he was going to meet today was really from the capital, it would be better for Xiao Yizhuo not to go.
Xiao Yizhuo naturally thought of this as well. He was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said softly, "It's OK. It shouldn't be. I haven't heard any news from Shadow Pavilion."
After hearing him say this, Wen Shutang was still a little worried. After all, there is always a chance of something happening.
Before she could say anything, Feng Shu urged, "Madam Wen, please go up quickly. Those people have been waiting for quite some time."
Due to Feng Shu's presence, Wen Shutang could no longer persuade Xiao Yizhuo and could only go upstairs with him. After knocking on the door and getting permission from the person inside, Wen Shutang went in.
As soon as Song Zhoubai and Pei Sheng saw Wen Shutang, they stood up and Song Zhoubai spoke first.
"Madam Wen is here, please sit down quickly."
Wen Shutang walked forward and saw a man in a dark brocade robe sitting between the two men. He secretly guessed that this was the big shot that Feng Shu had mentioned.
The man was also looking at Wen Shutang, his sharp eyes scanning her up and down with some ambiguous meaning.
Pei Sheng walked up to Wen Shutang and introduced him with a smile: "Madam Wen, this is Manager Li Yutang, the manager of the Fang Family Shop in the capital. I called you here early this morning to introduce you two to each other. Who knows, you may be able to do business together in the future. Manager Li is very interested in the tea business, and he came here specifically for this matter. I think this idea was thought up by Madam Wen, so naturally you should come and meet him."
"Shopkeeper Li, this is the wonderful lady from the Wen family that I told you about. Not only does she have many ideas, but she is also very capable. The perfume that the ladies of various noble families in the capital used a few days ago was also developed by her."
Pei Sheng briefly introduced each other's identities to the two of them.
Li Yutang had a smile on his face, giving people a sense of being approachable. After listening to Pei Sheng's introduction, he smiled and nodded repeatedly.
"Well, I heard that the perfume was very popular in the capital a few days ago. My wife wanted to buy it but hasn't been able to buy it yet. I didn't expect that the person who could make such a new thing would be such a young lady. I am really enlightened today."
Pei Sheng immediately responded with a smile: "Yes, I didn't believe that Madam Wen could actually make perfume at first, but later I was really surprised by her cleverness. It was she who came up with the idea of selling tea to the people. Facts have proved that this method is indeed feasible. In just over a month, I have already bought three or four hundred kilograms of tea. I made a lot of money."
"Great, Madam Wen is so good at business at such a young age. You will definitely achieve great things in the future." Li Yutang looked at Wen Shutang with a smile in his eyes, full of admiration for her.
Wen Shutang responded with a polite and gentle smile: "Manager Li, you are too kind. I just have some strange ideas."
"Madam Wen, please don't make excuses. What everyone said is true. Shopkeeper Li, let me tell you, this young lady from the Wen family not only has many ideas, but is also an excellent cook. All the chefs in my Zhaixing Tower are ashamed of themselves. The signature dish of our Zhaixing Tower, Mapo Tofu, is the secret recipe we bought from Madam Wen." Song Zhoubai looked at Li Yutang and listed Wen Shutang's advantages one by one.
He described it so vividly that Wen Shutang almost felt proud.
But these two people suddenly started to flatter her, and she always felt like she was being cheated.
"Really? I didn't expect that Madam Wen is so powerful at such a young age."
Hearing the praise from Song Zhoubai and Pei Sheng, Li Yutang's eyes flashed with a hint of light, and there was also some inquiry in his eyes when he looked at Wen Shutang.
"I wonder who Madam Wen learned this business philosophy from?"
"What business skills? How can a peasant woman like me know these? I just have an unconventional personality and more ideas. The two gentlemen praised me like this, but it's really an exaggeration."
Wen Shutang did not miss the inquiry in Li Yutang's eyes. Hearing his question, Wen Shutang smiled and waved his hand without changing his expression, his tone somewhat helpless.
Seeing her natural expression, Li Yutang didn't think any more about it. He just thought she was a simple village woman who happened to make a few deals by chance.
"So that's the case. Li was worrying too much."
After Li Yutang finished speaking, his eyes fell on Xiao Yizhuo who was standing behind Wen Shutang. After all, he was tall and had a cold temperament, making it impossible to ignore him.
The moment his eyes met Xiao Yizhuo, Li Yutang immediately stiffened. He frowned slightly and stared at Xiao Yizhuo carefully.
He always felt that there was something wrong with the man in front of him, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
Just when he wanted to take a good look at Xiao Yizhuo, his view was blocked by Wen Shutang.
"Who is this young man?" Li Yutang asked.
"This is my husband. I thought the two gentlemen had something to do, so I came here to help."
Wen Shutang noticed the way Li Yutang looked at Xiao Yizhuo, and fearing that he might notice something wrong, he moved closer to Xiao Yizhuo, blocking Li Yutang's sight.
Pei Sheng also spoke up when he saw this: "This is Madam Wen's husband. Ah Zhou and I both know about it. Shopkeeper Li, don't worry. We haven't told anyone else about your visit to Qingshui Town."
Li Yutang did not announce his visit to Qingshui Town this time, and few people knew that he was here.
Pei Sheng thought that he was afraid that his whereabouts would be revealed, so he asked about Xiao Yizhuo's identity.
