After dinner, Chen Sanhe went to the west room to rest, while Chen Ruotong and Qiao Zien chatted in the main hall.

Chen Ruotong stood up and bowed deeply to Qiao Zien, saying, "Thank you, Brother Zien. The decoration of Zhenpin Pavilion is very good. I am very satisfied. It is beyond my expectation. I can see that Brother Zien has put a lot of effort into it. Thank you for your hard work, Brother Zien!"

Qiao Zien also stood up and returned the greeting, "Brother Guchuan, you are too polite. Brother Guchuan's business is Zien's business, and it is only natural for Zien to be attentive!"

"Brother Zien, are you doing well in the academy? Have your grades improved?"

"It's just so-so. I ranked sixth in this month's test. I still need to work harder!"

"Brother Zien is too modest. I know you are very capable. It is only a matter of time before you get first place."

"Have you found Brother Furukawa's sister? Is her family okay?"

"Yes, I found it. There is a drought in the south right now, and there is little rain in my hometown. I asked my family to come to Pingyang Prefecture with me, but they were unwilling. But my third brother came with me, and I think other family members will come slowly."

Qiao Zien joked, "Brother Guchuan should be the fourth child in the family, right? If I'm not mistaken, your name should be Chen Sichuan, and you should have two older brothers, one named Hai and the other named Jiang!"

Chen Ruotong pouted and laughed, "Is this hard to guess? That's right, but I don't like the name Chen Sichuan, so I changed my name to Chen Guchuan. Is that not okay? Hahaha..."

"Of course, Brother Guchuan is different from others, so it's not surprising to change his name. By the way, when will the Zhenpin Pavilion open? Where are the exquisite items you want to sell?"

"I plan to open the store in two days. The goods have already been shipped to Zhenpin Pavilion. You can go and have a look when you have time!" Chen Ruotong said confidently.

"Brother Zien, I noticed that you have grown a little taller."

"Really? I didn't feel that way myself!"

"Children of this age grow very fast. It's puberty! Uh, I mean, if you eat well, live well, and are in a good mood, you will naturally grow taller. Hahahaha..."

Qiao Zien smiled shyly and said, "Fang Wenxuan has also come to the academy to study."

"What? He still refuses to give up and comes to bother you again?"

"No, he reads his and I read mine. We haven't said a word to each other in more than a month, and he tries to avoid me as much as possible."

"That's good. Don't let him affect your mood and your studies."

"I know, don't worry!"

"How do you get along with your classmates?

"My classmates are all very nice and we get along well with each other. The top students study really hard. There is one student who doesn't come from a good family but works hard and has good character. He and I have become friends."

"That's good. It's a good thing to make more friends. More friends means more paths!"

"I know," he took out a roll of banknotes and handed it to Chen Ruotong, "This is the remaining six hundred taels after deducting the materials and labor costs for the renovation of Zhenpin Pavilion."

Chen Ruotong accepted the five hundred taels and said, "You and Qiao Bo have worked hard for a month. This hundred taels is your wages. I can't let your hard work be in vain, right?"

Qiao Zien didn't bother to be polite with her and accepted it generously.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's go to bed!" Chen Ruotong said, stretching.

Chen Sanhe, lying on the bed in the west room, was very restless and couldn't sleep. He didn't expect that the child in the younger sister's mouth was a handsome young boy, and he was a student studying in the famous Zhishan Academy. Moreover, he felt that this big and beautiful Chen house was not given by the student, because it was obvious that the student was also living here, and there were servants, and it was said that there was also a manor. No matter how grateful the boy was to her, he would not give her so much land. He felt that his brain was not enough. He felt that the younger sister was less and less like the younger sister. The posture and demeanor of her speech were something that the younger sister had never had before. Moreover, the younger sister's makeup and acting skills were so realistic that she was really a handsome young boy. He even doubted that the younger sister was not the younger sister, but when she changed into women's clothes, she was the lively, cheerful and naughty younger sister!

Chen Sanhe couldn't sleep, so he got up, lit a candle, and wrote a letter to his family, telling them that he had arrived safely and introducing the current situation of the Chen residence.

On the other side, Qiao Zien went back to his room and lay on the bed, but he still couldn't fall asleep. He wanted to know about Chen Guchuan's family situation, but he didn't dare to ask directly, fearing that it would be too abrupt and Chen Guchuan would be unhappy. But from his conversation, it can be seen that his family conditions are not good, and his third brother is also a worldly-wise man. So where did he get the money to buy the shop and the farm? Is it really what he guessed?

After moving into Chen's house, Shen Bing and Shen Xue felt that their decision was right. The brother and sister should have no worries about food and clothing, and their lives would get better and better.

After breakfast the next day, Qiao Zien went to the academy. Chen Sanhe gave the letter from home to the coachman and asked him to take it to Chen Jianshu. Then Chen Ruotong led everyone to Zhenpin Pavilion.

She wanted to put the goods on the shelves, so she went to the warehouse alone and took out 200 pieces of glassware and 200 pieces of porcelain from the space. The so-called porcelain is mainly tableware, that is, porcelain plates, porcelain bowls, porcelain soup pots, porcelain spoons and the like. Haha, compared with the ancient porcelain, these are comparable to exquisite products.

Modern ceramics absorb the essence and discard the dross, and integrate traditional ceramic technology with modern technology for artistic processing, and decorate various ceramics in a variety of ways. The production technology of blanks and glazes is far ahead of this era, giving people a unique visual effect.

The patterns and colors on the porcelain tableware are elegant and luxurious, giving a sense of royal wealth. Such porcelain was not available in the Daliang Dynasty. The white porcelain bowls are pure white and thin and translucent. This kind of highly difficult white porcelain was not made in the Daliang Dynasty.

Several people carefully carried five large boxes to the first floor of Zhenpin Pavilion.

Chen Ruotong opened the first box of glassware. The sparkling glassware blinded everyone's eyes. Everyone gasped. What was this?

Qiao Bo was well-informed and exclaimed: "This is, this is high-end colored glass?"

Even though Chen Sanhe had worked in a silver shop for two years, he had never seen real colored glass. He had only heard of it. Not to mention Shen Bing and Shen Xue, he had never seen them.

"Yes and no. Colored glaze does not have this kind of craftsmanship, nor is it this clear. It's called glass," Chen Ruotong explained.

This new word "glass" is refreshing to everyone.

Chen Ruotong organized everyone to take out the glassware and place them on the antique display shelf.

Everyone was very careful and handled it with care, for fear of damaging this fragile treasure.

There are cylindrical water cups, square water cups, tall cups, short cups, and various stemmed glasses for drinking wine. There are colorless, blue, and light green glass cups, as well as glass plates, glass bowls, fruit plates, and even beautiful glass vases. There are pairs of each style, and no two styles are the same.

Chen Ruotong was troubled about the pricing. How much should it be sold for?

At this moment, Zhang Yishun came and laughed, "Brother Chen is back! Oh! You brought all the goods back?" As he spoke, he looked at the glassware on the antique display shelf and exclaimed, "It's so beautiful and shocking." He was dazzled.
