"We should go out for a walk today. At least we should go to the Imperial Examination Hall to see how far it is from here."

"Okay, let's go for a walk first." Shen Li had never been to the provincial capital, so it was a good opportunity for him to take a good walk around.

After the three of them finished their breakfast, they walked down the street. On the way, Shen Li asked about the direction of the Imperial Examination Hall, and then they all walked towards the Imperial Examination Hall.

The people here seem to pay more attention to their appearance. Everyone dresses very elegantly. Even those who can't be particular are at least clean and tidy. They may also have their own little ideas, such as embroidering something on the cuffs of their clothes, or wearing some pendants around their waists, or embroidering something on their belts.

You can tell at a glance that this is not original to the clothes, but was embroidered later.

There are also some rich people whose clothes are all made of silk, which is so luxurious.

There are all kinds of shops on the street, and they seem to sell everything. In short, there are many more things than in their county town.

It’s worthy of being a provincial capital, Shen Li exclaimed as he looked around.

On the other hand, Shen Han and Guan Wenyi also came here for the first time, but unlike her, they were not like bumpkins who had never seen the world. They would take a look, but were very restrained and did not let anyone notice.

"Brother, this state capital is really prosperous and lively."

"Well, it's much better than our county."

"So, you say, this place is so prosperous, what must Kyoto be like?"

"Could it be more prosperous than this?" Shen Han started to act silly again.

Shen Li looked at Guan Wenyi: "What do you think?"

"What can it be? It's still a city, but the people in it are different."

Although what he said was nice, Shen Li was speechless. Going shopping with these two people was simply a torture.

Next, Shen Li looked around by herself and didn't ask them. She would stop and ask when she saw something that interested her. But she didn't buy anything along the way. Even if she bought something, she would have to carry it with her, which was really inconvenient.

After strolling all the way, they finally arrived at the Imperial Examination Hall. After asking for the specific details and the start time of the exam, the three of them changed another route and strolled back. When they arrived at the inn, it was already afternoon. After lunch, they rested in the room.

The next day, Shen Li said hello to Shen Han and said he wanted to go shopping by himself. Shen Han was worried and wanted to accompany him, but she didn't let him.

Firstly, this is in the city and generally there is no danger. Secondly, I don't want to disturb him from reading. Thirdly, they might not be able to go shopping together.

Shen Li felt that it would be more free and comfortable if he walked around by himself.

After leaving the inn, she walked towards the busiest street. She just passed by yesterday, so today she could take a good stroll around.

She walked slowly, looking at the items on the stalls, then going to the shop to have a look, but still didn't buy anything.

After finishing his shopping, Shen Li walked over to the dental clinic he had already inquired about.

She wanted to see if there were any suitable servants. Wu Zhong's indenture gave her this idea. She could buy slaves. If she bought a big house in this provincial capital, she would also need maids. All of these had to be purchased. As for the house and the shop, she also had to find a broker.

In the state capital, she didn't want to sell the ointment on consignment anymore, but wanted to buy a store and sell it directly.

After entering, there weren't many people there, and soon a man came forward to greet me.

"What does the guest need?"

"I want to see the maids and servants."

"Yes, we have maids and servants. What kind do you want, young lady?"

Shen Li didn't understand, so he asked: "How do you divide it?"

"Those with better looks have one price, and those with special abilities have another price. Everyone's price is different. Why don't you tell me what you want to buy?"

Shen Li looked at the waiter, who was smiling the whole time and did not show any impatience because she did not understand anything. As expected of a waiter from a big city, his service attitude was really good.

"Ms. Shen Li, why are you here?"

Just as Shen Li was about to say what she wanted, she heard someone calling her. She turned around and saw, "Mr. Jin? Why are you here too?"

"To inspect the business, of course."

"Is this dentistry your business?"

"Exactly."

Well, Shen Li didn’t have a temper, after all, he was the richest man.

Jin Duobao asked again: "Are you going to buy a servant?"

"Well, I'm just here to take a look. I may not buy it now. I may come back to buy it after a while."

"Since we are friends, I can keep any one you like for you first."

Shen Li's eyes lit up: "Is it okay?" This solved her big problem. After all, it was not easy to find talented people. It would be a pity to miss them. If she could keep them, it would be great. The most important thing was that she had no place to put them if she bought them now.

Jin Duobao looked into her bright black eyes. For some reason, he felt a little bit nostalgic. "Of course, if my boss says yes, then yes."

Shen Li quickly stated his needs: "It's like this, I want to buy a few servants, they must be able to work, preferably with good work ability, and also with good character and loyalty."

Jin Duobao chuckled: "Your request..."

"Is it a bit too much? I don't need it right now, but you can keep an eye out for me and keep one if you find one. I need about five people." Shen Li didn't know whether it would be easy to find such people.

"It's not a big ask, but there are few people like this." Then Jin Duobao looked at the waiter and said, "Did you hear that? If you have such a person now, keep him and don't sell him. If you don't have one, keep him. If you meet one, keep him."

The waiter nodded quickly: "Got it, boss."

"Would you like some tea?"

Shen Li refused directly: "I don't drink tea."

"I don't want to find a place to chat, but don't forget that you still owe me a favor."

"Okay, okay, I remember. I can go, but I have something else to do. I want to find a store on the busiest street. It doesn't have to be too big, preferably near a rouge shop."

After listening to Shen Li, Jin Duobao ordered his staff, "Find it as soon as possible."

The guy replied, "Yes."

"Can you leave this time?"

Shen Li shook his head: "No, I still want to see the house, and..."

Jin Duobao looked somewhat helpless. He interrupted Shen Li and said, "Okay, these things are easy to handle." He then said to the waiter, "This Miss Shen is my friend. If she has any needs in the future, you should try your best to help her. Got it?"

The waiter said respectfully, "Understood, Boss."

Jin Duobao looked at Shen Li and signaled with his eyes, as if to say let's go.

Shen Li still didn't move: "Well, there's more..."

"Are you not done yet?"

"No, I want to ask you to find a store for me first. If you find any results, you can come to the Anmian Inn to find me. Okay, let's go."

The two men left the dental shop and saw a carriage parked in front of the door.

"Please get in the car." Jin Duobao said.
