Chapter 291: Chapter 175: The Crown Prince of the Evergreen Commerce Association Arrives (Part 3)

"Full again?" Yang Tiantian looked at Xu Kui in surprise.

"Yes." Xu Kui glanced at the streets on both sides and then said, "I didn’t expect Dao Mark City to be so bustling now, so many merchants have come. Not only are the inns full, but the prices are also outrageously high. A regular room that usually costs around two pieces of silver has now risen to two taels. Young master, let’s try looking on the next street."

"Let’s not look anymore."

Li Hengsheng said, "Let’s head to the Evergreen Commerce Association first. We should handle our business first, arrange for what we need to purchase with them, then look for a place to stay. Otherwise, we could waste a lot of time continuing to search like this."

"What do you think, Senior Sister?" Li Hengsheng asked Yang Tiantian for her opinion.

"I have no objections," Yang Tiantian said casually.

"Then we’ll follow the young master’s suggestion." After Xu Kui finished speaking, he got into the carriage and drove towards the Evergreen Commerce Association.

A little less than half an hour later, the carriage finally arrived at the entrance of the Evergreen Commerce Association.

Unexpectedly, the entrance was bustling with traffic, almost leaving no place for their carriage to park.

"Is it really this exaggerating?"

Yang Tiantian found it somewhat unbelievable. She had been to many places, but she had never seen a business association so vibrant before.

The group parked the carriage at a distance and walked into the Evergreen Commerce Association, only to find it crowded with people.

Everywhere was filled with people.

Most of the guests were from the Great Yuan Dynasty.

Each guest had a staff member assisting with introductions and signing orders.

Even Xu Kui, who was well-versed in the world, found this to be a bit excessive.

"May I help you with something?" At this moment, a young girl, having just finished with her current clients, hurried over to receive Li Hengsheng and the others.

The girl’s eyes were lively, with a slight childlike chubbiness on her face, yet she was very adorable, leaving a pleasant impression at first glance.

"We’re here to order prefabricated dishes," Li Hengsheng glanced at the surging crowd and stated their purpose for this visit.

"Prefabricated dishes, right?" The young girl nodded and said, "Certainly, but with the current queue, you’ll have to wait four months for your prefabricated dishes to be made."

"Four months!" Li Hengsheng was taken aback. "But we need them in half a month."

"Huh?" The girl looked helplessly and said, "Sir, as you can see, everyone here is ordering prefabricated dishes. It’s already queued up to four months from now. Expecting them in half a month is practically impossible."

"We’re hosting a banquet at Dao Mountain Ancient Land in half a month. Is there any way to expedite this?" Li Hengsheng didn’t want to return empty-handed.

"Hmm? Dao Mountain Ancient Land?" Suddenly, the girl’s eyes lit up. "Are you disciples of Dao Mountain Ancient Land?"

"Yes," Li Hengsheng nodded.

"May I ask your honorable name?" the girl asked quietly.

Although he didn’t understand why she asked for his name, Li Hengsheng replied, "I’m Li Hengsheng, a disciple of Mu Haifeng at Dao Mountain Ancient Land, positively genuine."

Upon hearing Li Hengsheng’s name, the girl’s mouth opened wide in astonishment.

Her attitude immediately changed.

"Esteemed guests, this place is too crowded and noisy. Please follow me to a VIP room to discuss further." The girl quickly suggested.

"VIP room?" Li Hengsheng and Yang Tiantian were somewhat perplexed. They had just arrived and were already being treated as VIPs? Xu Kui didn’t say anything; there didn’t seem to be any danger here, and Xu Kui didn’t sense any murderous intent around.

In fact, everyone was busy with business and hadn’t noticed them at all.

"This way, please."

The girl led Li Hengsheng towards the office area on the left side of the first floor.

The Evergreen Commerce Association had numerous VIP rooms, specifically for hosting distinguished guests with large orders.

One reason was to provide better service to the customers.

Another was to cater to the customers’ vanity, making them realize they were different from those placing small orders outside.

This was initially proposed by Li Changqing.

Li Changqing was also planning to introduce membership cards soon.

This would firmly lock these customers into spending at the Evergreen Commerce Association, making them lose themselves while being constantly called ’VIP’.

The girl led the trio to the last VIP room in the VIP area, where a guard was standing watch.

"Minmin? Why are you here?" The guard was evidently familiar with the girl.

"Open the VIP room; I have guests," Minmin instructed immediately.

"Huh? Are you sure? This is the most expensive VIP room, and in a quarter of an hour, the steward from the Great Yuan Dynasty’s General’s Mansion, who reserved it yesterday, will arrive!" The guard quickly reminded her, "They’re large order customers. What will you do if they arrive and the room is occupied?"

"The steward from the Great Yuan Dynasty’s General’s Mansion? So what?" Minmin snorted lightly, gesturing towards Li Hengsheng behind her with her eyes, "This here is the Crown Prince of our Evergreen Commerce Association."

Upon hearing this, the guard’s expression changed instantly.

"He is..."

"I’ll open it right away."

The guard hurriedly opened the door.

"Please, esteemed guests, come inside." Minmin quickly ushered Li Hengsheng and the others in.

"This place is really nice." Yang Tiantian remarked after entering the room, looking at the spacious and grand environment, and even scented with very expensive sandalwood.

The floor was covered with carpets made from the pelts of semi-Spirit Beasts.

Exquisite fruits were placed on the table, each of which appeared not cheap. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"Please wait here for a moment while I fetch our president." Minmin said before quickly turning and leaving.

The guard even specially brewed some tea.

Li Hengsheng was a little dumbfounded. They were just here to buy some prefabricated dishes; did it really require a personal reception by the president of the Evergreen Commerce Association?

Wouldn’t their president be incredibly busy then?

"Your business association is really well-managed, and the service is excellent," Yang Tiantian commented, observing the surroundings.

"Second Senior Sister, stop joking," Li Hengsheng shook his head, "This isn’t my family’s business. This business is funded by the families in Changting Town. Although it’s said that my father has shares, it’s probably just a small fraction. If the Yan family allows my father some dividends, it’s out of kindness."

"If this business were owned by my family, why would I even bother cultivating? Living off the family wealth leisurely and having an easy life sounds better than working hard," Li Hengsheng joked, "Content being a second-generation rich kid, living frivolously."

What started as a mere joke was unexpectedly overheard by Li Changqing, who was using his Divine Soul to check for any potential danger around Li Hengsheng.

"This kid..."

Li Changqing shook his head, "As the saying goes, men change when they have money, and it’s no different for this boy. If he learns that I have thirty percent shares in the Evergreen Commerce Association, he might indeed become a perpetual loafer. It’s better that he doesn’t know this; otherwise, he might truly lose all ambition."

Recalling his past life’s unruly son, who constantly demanded money and would sometimes hit him if refused, Li Changqing couldn’t help but shudder.
