Chapter 536: Chapter 523: Investigating the Case
Whether Chu Jinnian would compensate or not didn’t really matter. After all, he had plenty of money and a bit of compensation wouldn’t impact him much.
On the other hand, Zhuang Qingning’s business had been thriving. If it were to be hit by this setback…
Fan Wenxuan’s brows suddenly furrowed.
“It’s this soap.” Jing Zhao appeared oblivious to Fan Wenxuan’s downcast mood and began talking enthusiastically. “Miss Zhuang said that this soap had just been made. This is the simplest kind, but many other variations can be made in the future.”
“She said that there will be soap with added petals of orchids and roses, mugwort soap with added mugwort, medicated soap with various kinds of herbs, and even pearl whitening soap with added pearl powder…”
“There are so many different kinds that I’ve heard of, but there are too many to remember. These are the ones I recall.”
Fan Wenxuan’s previously dull eyes immediately brightened.
True to form for Zhuang Qingning, even a bar of soap could be turned into something exceptional.
While a plain bar of soap might be overlooked, perceived as something only used by housewives and unfit for display, if it were as Jing Zhao indicated, enhanced with many ingredients to create a variety of soap, the soaps added with flowers and herbs would certainly charm for their elegance. The medicated soaps would likely be sought after by those aiming for good health, and as for the whitening soap…
Both genders would cherish it!
Fan Wenxuan suddenly understood why Jing Zhao said that he also wanted to start this business.
Because now…
He also wanted to do the same.
After all, in this world, who would complain about having too much money? Especially him, a poor teacher?
However, chances were, Chu Jinnian and Zhuang Qingning had already negotiated this business and certainly wouldn’t give him an opportunity to get involved.
What a pity.
That said, there are no completely dead-end roads in this world. If he could find an alternative, he might be able to breach through the thorns.
Fan Wenxuan absentmindedly stroked his own beard.

After finishing their lunch, Zhuang Qingning and Chu Jinnian chatted briefly, before they both went to see Chu Jinzhou. Zhuang Qingsui and Zhuang Mingli joined them for some lighthearted fun.
As the sun set, Zhuang Qingning and the others prepared to take their leave.
Chu Jinnian ordered Jing Zhao to prepare the carriage and personally saw Zhuang Qingning’s party home. Only after watching Zhuang Qingning enter her house did he board the carriage.
Jing Zhao cracked the whip, steering the carriage towards Qingzhuyuan.
“To the County Government Office.” Chu Jinnian commanded.
“Are you going to investigate the case, Master?” Jing Zhao emotion darkened, he advised, “If you want to investigate, it is not too late to go tomorrow…”
Having traveled through the night and arrived at Qingzhuyuan at daybreak, Chu Jinnian had initially planned to rest in the morning and inquire about the Ding Gaochang and Xu Zhengping cases in the afternoon. However, Zhuang Qingning’s visit disrupted his plans.
