Finally, it was the big day for the whole clan.
The retail shop would open, and everyone was getting ready for it.
Lin Xuan Qi had a quick breakfast and kept reminding everyone if they knew what to do.
"Xue Cong, make sure they don't disrupt the other customers.
"And Yue Jie, try to help Lu Ting if she gets too busy.
"Yue Xin...stay out of trouble.
"As for you, Shi Shi, try and keep everyone in order."
Yue Xin rolled her eyes and said, "Yes, Master Lin. It's the second time you are telling us the same things."
"Master Lin is just making sure." Yue Jie nudged Yue Xin from behind and it made Yue Xin stop.
Liu Shi Shi shrugged and nodded her head.
She wanted to talk to him alone but there wasn't a good opportunity for it with him being so busy.
Xue Cong noted everything he had briefed her and made sure the other servants knew what to do.
So far, Yue Jie, Yue Xin and Liu Shi Shi had treated her the same, like nothing had happened.
She was glad that they did so.
And in fact, Lin Xuan Qi also treated her the same.
Lin Xuan Qi's mind right now was, however, focused on the soap business.
He had planned for the servants to make it look busy if there weren't any customers.
Other than that, he had devised a plan to make sure that the customers would be wowed by the soap.
The planning was done and what was left to be done was the actual execution.
"Master Lin, success soon." Zhi Yong came over to him, thumped his chest and said.
"Thanks." He patted Zhi Yong's back and glanced over at Lee He Song.
Lee He Song was the other person who wasn't anxious among them.
"Need a drink?" Smiling at him, Lee He Song offered a drink from his wine gourd.
Lin Xuan Qi shook his head and said, "I need to be alert."
He remembered the painful hangover the last time he had a drink.
It wasn't pleasant and he wanted to avoid it.
"Things will work out fine. I have confidence in you.
"Trust this old man. I've seen a lot, and you are one of the best."
Lee He Song said while he kept his wine gourd.
Nodding his head, Lin Xuan Qi stood up straight and agreed with Lee He Song.
Neigh.
The sound of horses filled the air, and a horse carriage stopped at the front of the wooden gates.
The two servants had bought the horses and horse carriage according to his instructions.
"Come, let's get on the horse carriage." Lin Xuan Qi said and walked to the horse carriage with excitement.
The servant opened the door of the carriage and helped him get into it.
Sitting inside, he glanced around and was pleased with the interior, furnished tastefully with auspicious words and symbols like gold ingots.
Xue Cong was also excited like him when she got into the horse carriage.
He gave her a smile, and said, "See, I told you the Clan would get better."
Xue Cong nodded and gave him a smile back.
She was looking around like a kid in a candy store.
Yue Jie, Yue Xin and Liu Shi Shi were reserved.
They'd been in a horse carriage before, and it wasn't that unusual for them.
However, they still felt happy for Lin Xuan Qi to be able to get so much done in such a short span of time.
Lin Xuan Qi rested his head on the back with his hands behind it.
He relaxed and glanced at the pretty sight in front of him.
Xue Cong, Yue Jie, Yue Xin and Liu Shi Shi were beauties in their own ways.
So, this is what it feels like to be a young master. He marveled at them and thought silently to himself.
All the hard work might be worthwhile after all.
"Start the carriage and head for the retail store." He called out to the servants manning the horse carriage.
They nodded their heads and got to work.
Whip.
The whip cracked in the air, and the horses began to pull the horse carriage along.
...
"Master Lin" Lu Ting bowed and greeted him when Lin Xuan Qi got off the horse carriage.
She was wearing a clean and tidy uniform with the words 'Lin Clan' sewn on the left chest.
The other workers in the retail store were wearing the same clothes.
Lin Xuan Qi had told them it would bring about a sense of professionalism to the customers.
Lu Ting and the other workers had learned so much from him, and today, they would be able to find out if he was telling them the right things.
She glanced at the others who followed behind him but kept quiet.
"Is everything ready?" Lin Xuan Qi asked.
"Yes, Master Lin." Lu Ting replied and clapped her hands.
The other workers in the retail shop brought out a string of firecrackers to the front of the shop.
Lin Xuan Qi nodded his head and said, "Wait for the crowd to gather first."
By now, there were a few passersby taking a glance at what was happening, but they didn't stop to see.
He waited for his plants to come and attract the others.
Right on cue, a group of men and women came up to Lu Ting and the other workers of the retail store.
"What are you selling?"
"I've never seen this shop before, are you sure you want to have a look?"
"They seem to be serious with their uniform."
The group of men and women chatted among themselves according to what Xue Cong had taught them.
They were the other servants from the mansion.
Sure enough, it piqued interest from the other passersby, and more crowd gathered around to see what was going on.
"Wait!" A shout could be heard, and the sounds of horses trotting closer followed.
"Brother Sima Long!" Lin Xuan Qi smiled and greeted Sima Long when he saw who it was.
And it was not only him.
There was an entourage of many more horse carriages behind him.
The doors of the horse carriages opened, and the young mistresses stepped out of the horse carriages.
