Chapter 633: A Transient Visitor Amidst the Clouds of Red Du

eadache when she grows up. 。The whole afternoon was spent in such laughter. 。Dinner was prepared by Lao Tai Li, Qiong Shao, and Dong Mei. Jia Yin flitted around them, both playing and causing mischief...Mr. Peng, the shopkeeper, stood to one side and loudly addressed the crowd: “Fellow townspeople and honored guests who have passed by, today is the grand opening day of our humble shop.”

"The little shop offers a variety of unique snacks and small bites, guaranteeing flavors and methods that are exclusive to Tianwu! "

"Today's grand opening, 20% off discount, and free tastings and gifts, prices return to normal after three days, don't miss it if you pass by!"

Having said that, he waved his hand and the attendant lit the firecrackers.

Within the crisp, crackling sound of celebration, Jia Yin and Yi, the head manager, worked together to remove the red silk curtain from the plaque, revealing the three large characters "Baiyunjian."

The handwriting is powerful and graceful, with dragons flying and phoenixes dancing. It's evident that the writer put a lot of effort into it.

In the lower right corner of the plaque, there is a small seal with the inscription "Hongchen Ke" in three characters.

After the fireworks, Yi Zongguan smiled and glanced at everyone. Then he turned to Jia Yin and said, "The Emperor said that the small cake resembled a white cloud, so 'Bai Yun Gao' (White Cloud Cake) is a fitting name."

So, when choosing a name for the shop, they also selected "White Clouds Among Three" as its name.

Jia Yin clapped her hands with a smile, "This name is simply too beautiful! Living among the white clouds, it's like a fairy! Then our shop's cake, even immortals would love it!"

Yi Zongguan burst into laughter and, following Jia Yin's lead, entered the room. He strolled around, then picked up some cake and snacks and put them in a food box to take back to the emperor.

The young man packed things quickly, but his fingers were trembling.

Of course, it's because he was excited! The first customer of their shop was actually the Emperor!

Soon, Lord Yi returned to the palace with a little eunuch, carrying things in his hands.

The storefront was silent for a long time, then suddenly it became noisy.

"Didn't that old man just say the Emperor gave this shop its name"

"What's more, the signboard of this shop was written by the Emperor himself!"

“Impossible, a dessert shop That's the king of a country! He wouldn't have time for such trivial matters!”

Maybe the food here is delicious, didn't you see that eunuch carrying a food box Perhaps he's bringing it back to the Emperor.

Some knowledgeable people, unable to bear the senseless chatter any longer, finally chimed in. “You guys have no idea! That old man was actually the head eunuch in the Emperor’s court! The inscription on the plaque was also written in the Emperor’s favored cursive script! And ‘Red Dust Guest’ is the Emperor’s private seal!”

"Oh!"

Everyone gasped in shock, speechless with surprise.

This shop couldn't possibly be owned by the Emperor, could it Otherwise, how could he put so much effort into promoting it

The man said again, “But this shop wasn’t opened by the Emperor. The person behind it is… County Princess Kangle!”

Lady Kang Le

The adopted daughter of Marquis Xinting, the beloved daughter of the wealthy Li family from Suijintan!

No wonder!

Everyone suddenly understood.

The Emperor placed great trust in Marquis Xinting, who remained unmarried and childless, treating Lady Kangle, his adopted daughter, as the apple of his eye.

The emperor loves his relatives and supports his niece's business, there's nothing wrong with that.

Everyone glanced at each other, thinking they understood the situation and... decisively rushed into the shop.

With the Emperor's support and the Duke as their backing, even if the pastries were dog excrement carved into flowers, they would buy one to worship.

The crowd was bustling, but once inside the shop, people unconsciously hushed their voices and moved their feet carefully.

Because the floor beneath their feet was too clean, the transparent glass counter was too shiny, and the smell that reached their noses was too sweet, the whole shop felt too warm...

Being in such a space, wearing slightly less than appropriate attire, and having dirty shoes on the ground, one almost feels like they shouldn't even dare to move.

Fortunately, the vendors were enthusiastic and smiled as they introduced their various goods to everyone, including large birthday cakes and the prices of all kinds of snacks.

Jia Yin has loved snacks since she was a child, and her family and friends spoil her by constantly buying them for her.

It can be said that she has eaten at every snack shop inside and outside of the new city.

So, the positioning of her own shop is a boutique route with novel flavors and refined taste.

With their sights set on the purses of wealthy young masters and ladies, they also customize birthday cakes to reap a harvest of red envelopes from the elderly and children.

People who are drawn to their own store and have a desire to spend money are not short of funds.

So, the food in the restaurant is not cheap.

To be honest, it's really expensive.

A palm-sized cake, costing only around thirty wen to make, is sold for five hundred wen.

A one-layer, one-foot-diameter birthday cake cost two ounces of silver. Based on this, the larger the diameter and the more layers, the price would double.

The most expensive option is a bespoke cake, customized to the customer's wishes. It includes adjustments to size and its price starts at twenty two or more.

As for various cookies, honey cakes, fish skin beans, rice crackers, popcorn, and chips, the price ranges from fifty mon to one hundred mon per two.

Thus, grabbing a handful randomly would cost you about several dozen wen.

To cater to the curious minds of guests, the stall also offers small snack boxes.

A delicately crafted four-grid wooden box, each grid containing a few small snacks, priced at around two to three hundred wen in total. It's essentially a free wooden box…

Such a price directly discouraged most of the customers from entering.

They just came to take a look at the novelty, sniff around, taste a cracker or some porridge, and then quickly left.

Of course, they wouldn't admit to being short of money.

But to say which part of the clouds is bad, they dare not go against their conscience.

After all, besides being expensive, everything else about the white clouds is great!

And the remaining few are those who have no need for money.

The white cloud cake, named by the emperor, is fragrant, sweet and soft. I bought a piece for my mother at home to try something fresh.

Some snacks would also be nice, the kids will surely love it...

The young lads frequently introduce guests to the basic ingredients of various dishes, including precautions.

For example, cream cake should be eaten as soon as possible and not left overnight. If it tastes sour or bad, don't eat it, as it could make you sick.

This is because the ingredients they use are fresh enough and don't last long...

Li Zhensheng led Peng the shopkeeper to the front hall. Occasionally, they would meet old customers who frequented Xianke Lai, so they had to chat a few words and offer some snacks.

Jia Yin had been busy for a while, and seeing that everything was going smoothly, she wanted to go see her family at the back.

But at this time, the few young ladies that Jiayin had just met at Jia's birthday banquet arrived!

Jia Baoyu rushed in first, leading several young ladies. Behind him were Jia Erfu and the mothers of the little girls.

"Jia Yin, we're here to cheer you on!" Bao Zhu hugged Jia Yin's arm, like a koala bear, sniffing all around before she said, "So many delicious things!"

The other little girls also smiled and greeted Jia Yin, saying in unison, "Miss, we're here!"

"Welcome, welcome!" Jia Yin beamed with joy, bowing to Madam Jia Er and the others. Then, she quickly led them upstairs. "Come on, let's go to the second floor. We can eat and play there, it's very peaceful."

As she spoke, she called Shui Ling over to invite the elders.

Soon, everyone went upstairs.

Unlike the bustling atmosphere on the first floor, the second floor is much quieter and warmer.

The little girl couldn't move when she saw the room full of dolls. She rushed in, hugging one after another, overjoyed...uer has never snatched it from her!"It wasn't the younger sister who wanted to take it, it was that she took her older sister's seashell.Jia Yin cried a few times, her heart feeling wronged. Now she f...
