Qi Yan already could imagine how popular these things would be if they were placed for sale at his bookstore.

His eyes lit up and Little Cat knew that he would be a big customer.

In one go, he continued, “Sir, you can take a look at these.”

He raised a large box with his small arms and legs. When he opened it, there were two rows of exquisite erasers neatly placed inside.

These erasers were unique and cute. They were the designs of the 12 zodiac animals.

Little Cat smiled and said, “If you intend to gift someone, you can gift the 12 zodiac erasers. It will definitely be very popular.”

“Other than the 12 Zodiac Erasers, we have many other designs. You can choose whatever you want. I guarantee that you won’t regret buying them.’

“If you spend more than 10 taels of silver, you can immediately obtain an exquisite set of carbon paper note.”

“A note?” Qi Yan asked.

Little Cat opened a set of notes, tore off a piece, and stuck it on the carbon-paper book. “It can be used as a bookmark, or it can be used to record and add additional content. Isn’t that convenient?”

Qi Yan exclaimed over and over again. He really didn’t know how the person who designed these fancy writing tools could be so smart!

He took turns to try it out, and he became even more determined to sell these stationery in his bookstore.

Little Cat’s mouth had become dry from talking. He waited in anticipation for Qi Yan to choose to purchase the items, but only a few words came. “Where’s your boss?”

Little Cat’s expression darkened for a moment. Although he tried his best to hold it in, Qi Yan still noticed it.

It was indeed not good for him not buy anything before asking around.

Qi Yan waved his arm and said generously, “Give me five sets of each of these things!”

Little Cat’s eyes lit up in an instant, and he was all smiles. “Alright, sir!’

Qi Yan bought five sets of every item, which cost at least 20 taels of silver. This meant that Little Cat could earn at least six taels of silver.

Six taels of silver!

This was only the first customer!

Little Cat’s heart was pounding. After that day , he probably wouldn’t have to worry about money for a long time and could study hard.

The event was about to begin, and Chu Tianbao signed up for the individual segment.

Yu Suisheng had long heard that Chu Tianbao’s martial arts were outstanding, so he naturally did not want to miss the opportunity to watch him show off his skills.

His seat was not far from Bai Wutong’s seat. Qi Yan managed to get Little Cat’s reply and came looking for her. He was subconsciously attracted by that beautiful figure.

He held his breath. This was the first time he had seen such a beautiful lady.

He had never heard of such an outstanding young lady in Woqian Town. She must be the daughter of one of the 30 families in Qinghe.

Suddenly, he felt melancholy again.

He was already married, so he naturally could not behave rudely.

He also understood that no matter how downtrodden the daughters of aristocratic families were, they would not fall to the point of becoming concubines.

Instantly, Qi Yan gave up.

In the end, they were not fated!

Qi Yan and Yu Suisheng chatted. The seats were just right, so he stole a few glances at Bai Wutong. Even if they were not fated, it was still nice to take a few more glances.

The contestants were all ready. They were just waiting for the gong and drum to ring and rush into the rice field.

Chu Tianbao had chosen to take part to win the mandarin duck jade pendant. He wanted to earn the prize and give it to Bai Wutong.

Zhao Pengfei also wanted to win first place and obtain the mandarin duck jade pendant to please Zhao Lanzhi.

Chu Tianbao could not use his internal energy, so Zhao Pengfei felt that he had a chance to take a gamble.

Cui Muzhi did not want to be first or second, but he wanted to enter the top 10 at least. It was alright if he could even get a literary gift bag. However, when he saw Lan Jingbai from the corner of his eye, his thoughts changed.

Woodhead Lan didn’t seem to have any accessories. If he got first place, he could give it to him.

Suddenly, Cui Muzhi knocked his head again. He was a man. Why would he give him a mandarin duck jade pendant?

Just as his face turned red from being foolish, Village Chief Zhao hit the gong. “Dong—” Other than Lan Jingbai, the others had already rushed into the rice field.

Lan Jingbai grabbed his arm. ‘Go quickly.”

His magnetic voice was as steady and powerful as ever.

Cui Muzhi’s gaze landed on his face, and the panic in his heart was soothed. He nodded. “Okay.”

After entering the rice field and catching fish, he had to run back and put them into the fish basket that everyone had.

The run to and fro not only wasted time, but also consumed a lot of physical strength.

Chu Tianbao could not use his internal energy, but his martial arts foundation was still there.

He took the lead and entered the rice field. ‘Ihvvo big fish instantly were caught in his hands.

The audience instantly erupted into intense cheers.

Many people shouted excitedly, “Go, Master Chu!”

The women who rushed over from Woqian Town looked at Chu Tianbao’s face and their eyes lit up.

What a handsome man!

What a powerful man!

They wondered if such a handsome and powerful man was married.

The women’s gazes made Bai Wutong frown slightly. When she heard that they wanted to ask if Chu Tianbao was married, her expression darkened.

If she had known, she would have let everyone wear masks.

Then, Chu Tianbao would not be coveted by so many women.

Her chest felt tight, and she suddenly realized that not only was Chu Tianbao becoming more and more possessive of her, but he was also becoming more and more important to her.

Chu Tianbao was very fast. He caught fish with one hand and fish with the other. After a while, there were several big fish in his hands.

He nimbly dodged the people and placed all the big fish into the fish basket. The fish basket was instantly more than half full.

The audience exclaimed repeatedly. When Bai Wutong thought of Chu

Tianbao’s clumsiness when he first caught fish during their escape, she smiled brightly.

Back then, the fish were caught for her. That day, the fish were also caught for her.

Her smile was even brighter than the stars in the sky. Qi Yan, who was secretly watching her, was instantly stunned.

He subconsciously muttered, “One smile is enough to topple cities. Another smile is enough to topple countries.”

Yu Suisheng followed his gaze and his heart skipped a beat when his gaze landed on Bai Wutong’s face. He had yet to remind Qi Yan not to have any thoughts he shouldn’t have.

In the next moment, he felt himself being caught by a pair of extremely oppressive eyes.

Chu Tianbao stood in the rice field, but it was as if he was on a high throne, looking down at them like ants.

He retracted his gaze and poked Qi Yan, who was still in a daze.

This guy was courting death. He would not want to be targeted by Master Chu.

Qi Yan was poked a few times before he came back to his senses. “Uh, Brother Yu? What were we talking about?’

Yu Suisheng had always been willing to accept business that came knocking on his door as long as he could earn money.

Other than the shops in Woqian Town, Qi Yan also had two shops in Pingyang County. The negotiated price was also very profitable.

However, Yu Suisheng no longer had the intention to cooperate.

After saying a few words to Qi Yan, he left in a hurry.

If Qi Yan used the excuse of business and caused trouble, he would be dead.

Qi Yan was dazed. The business collaboration that he thought would be a win-win situation had actually not been fulfilled.

Moreover, how could he leave without upholding any promise?

While Qi Yan was angry, he couldn’t help but admire the beauty’s appearance to improve his mood..
