Ning Feng recounted the details of what he had seen that day at Cuiwei Lake to Chu Jinnian.

“Taking those two brothers, Qi He and Qi Shen, to court is acceptable, but what’s surprising is the scholarship and knowledge that young lady possesses. She seems to know about these things, and apparently, she handles them quite easily, even appearing to mock these methods.”

“Despite her demeanor, she doesn’t seem like a wandering street performer. It’s a pity that her face was obscured by a light veil that day, so I didn’t get a clear look at her.”

Ning Feng expressed his regret about this.

I see.” Chu Jinnian blinked, his deep eyes concealed a growing smile.

Although Ning Feng didn’t see the face of that young lady, if you think about it, had they not seen such a young woman handling these street tricks with such expertise before?

The very young Manager Zhuang of the tofu shop…

A beautiful image gradually surfaced in his mind, causing the comers of his mouth to subtly lift.

The initially cold demeanor softened a bit, revealing Chu Jinnian’s typically gentle and refined demeanor of his youth.

It seems his young master really admires this county magistrate, Ning Feng thought, his face unable to suppress a smile.

After all, it had been a long time since he last saw his master’s demeanor become so relaxed when mentioning a stranger.

Sensing the satisfaction within Ning Feng’s smile, Chu Jinnian believed his thoughts were seen through by him. He cleared his throat, handed over the book he was holding to Ning Feng, and lay down.

“I’m tired.”

Yes.” Ning Feng replied. He let down the canopy curtains on both sides, extinguished the lamps, checked the melting condition of the ice in the room, and then quietly stepped out, gently closing the door behind him.

Zhuang Yutian arrived as promised, looking for Zhuang Qingning to get the mosquito repellent herbs for transport to the town.

“How’s the trial these past two days?” Zhuang Qingning inquired.

“It’s very good.”

Speaking of this, Zhuang Yutian’s face was full of excitement, “There wasn’t much left that day by Ning girl, and your Aunt and I didn’t send out much. But whoever we sent them to, they came the next day, claiming they’d never used such good mosquito repellent herbs, and wanted to buy more to place in every room.”

“When they heard that there’re no stocks left at the moment and they had to wait for a few days, they all agreed without hesitation. Some even prepaid deposits for the fear of the herbs selling out by the time they needed them.” “In these last few days, there’s a need for about two hundred packets of mosquito repellent herbs. Once this batch is sold and more people start using it, the next batch will probably have even more demand.”

“I’m planning to send some to the inn and restaurant after the goods are back, places where people often use these. This sector has big potentials. As for those who often have business with the city, I also plan to approach them, hoping to supply them as well. If we can supply the city, that would be a steady stream of income.”

Zhuang Yutian became more excited as he talked.

Zhuang Qingning couldn’t help but smile.

She was pleased with the prospect that Zhuang Yutian described, and even more pleased with the business mindset of Zhuang Yutian and Mrs. Meng.
