The powerful princess arrives with a space warehouse

Chapter 1025 Can’t wait

Early the next morning.

The post station in the capital of the Western Chu Kingdom was already bustling with activity.

Prince Joliv had been itching to take his entourage to stroll through the streets of Kyoto. He wanted to take a good look at their shops and see what they had inside.

They hadn't paid any attention to what good items might be in the shops of the Western Chu Kingdom. If they hadn't seen the exquisite little mirror in Princess Jing's hand yesterday, they wouldn't have known that the Western Chu Kingdom was different from the Yue Rong Kingdom.

Because in the capital of the Yue Rong Kingdom, apart from silk, there was nothing else that appealed to them. Therefore, in their perception, the Yu Zhou continent was too backward, which is why they set high prices for the things they brought.

They came to the Western Chu Kingdom because the rulers and ministers of the Yue Rong Kingdom said that the Western Chu Kingdom was wealthy and had gold mines, and that their goods could be sold for a good price in the Western Chu Kingdom. That's why they passed through the Yue Rong Kingdom and came to the Western Chu Kingdom.

After having breakfast, Joliff and his companions were eager to go out, but it was still early and the shops on the main street didn't seem to be open yet.

Just as the group was impatiently waiting for Henry to investigate, Henry hurriedly walked in. "Your Highness, the shops in Xichu don't open until 9 AM. It's still early, more than half an hour away. Why don't we wait a little longer before going out and have another cup of fragrant tea?"

Even though he was anxious, there was nothing he could do since the shops were not open. So when he heard Henry say this, Joliv nodded and sat back down at the table with his entourage to continue enjoying the unique fragrant tea of ​​the Western Chu Kingdom.

“Your Highness, this fragrant tea is mellow and refreshing; it’s truly a wonderful thing. We can take more back with us,” Charles suggested, holding the teacup and inhaling its aroma.

“Their fragrant tea is indeed excellent; we should prepare more to take back with us.” Jolief took a sip and nodded in agreement.

Brian, standing to the side, frowned almost imperceptibly, his face filled with worry. He was Aunt Jolliff's son, and couldn't help but speak up: "Cousin, what if... what if we can't sell the goods we brought for a good price?"

Jolief paused for a moment, then tapped his fingertips lightly on the table: "Let's go to the shop and take a look first. There's no use rushing things now."

Henry quickly replied, "Your Highness, I have already investigated and found out that the most bustling streets in the capital of Western Chu are Zhongling Street and North Street. West Street is also quite lively."

"Which street is our inn located on?"

"Your Highness, this is East Street."

“In that case, let’s go to Chungling Street first.” Jolief said, then stood up abruptly. “Let’s go, it’s about time, the carriage will take some more time to travel.”

Prince Joliv, with his entourage, set off immediately and boarded his carriage at the entrance of the post station.

These four carriages were purchased by them in the Yue Rong Kingdom, and even the drivers were hired locally. The Yue Rong king was quite considerate, and specially sent soldiers to escort them to the border with the Western Chu Kingdom.

The language of Yue Rong Kingdom was almost identical to that of Western Chu, so the coachmen had already found out the location of the bustling main street of the capital. Upon hearing that they were going to Zhongling Street, they immediately drove the carriage straight to Zhongling Street.

Although the East Street leads to the intersection of Zhongling Street, the East Street is quite long, and the inn is located on the side of the East Street facing the East City Gate. Therefore, it took the carriage 45 minutes to reach the intersection of the intersection.

By this time, the sun had already risen early, and the shops on the street were opening one after another. The shop assistants were busy sweeping in front of their shops, and the street was coming to life.

Henry saw the restaurant where Prince Jing had treated them to dinner the day before through the carriage window, and shouted loudly from inside the carriage, "Stop the carriage! Stop the carriage! Stop the carriage! We're here! We're here!"

The carriage came to a smooth stop, and Joliv and the others got off one after another.

Jolief, however, was puzzled when he saw that the restaurant where Prince Jing had hosted their banquet yesterday was Zuixianlou. "Henry, this is the restaurant where we ate yesterday. Why is it on Zhongling Street?"

“Your Highness, I’ve checked. This restaurant is right at the entrance of Chungling Street. You see, the sign says Chungling Street.” Henry said, pointing to the sign at the street entrance.

Then, he pointed behind them and said, "Your Highness, look, this is a three-story shop called Rainbow Butterfly Pavilion. It has just opened and many customers have already gone in."

Brian turned around in the direction he was pointing and exclaimed, "Cousin, look how grand this shop is! It's three stories high!"

“Then let’s go take a look first,” Joliff said to the others.

Henry quickly instructed the coachmen, "Stop the carriage here and wait for us to return."

No sooner had he finished speaking than two guards from the Western Chu Kingdom approached and gave the coachman a few instructions. The coachman nodded repeatedly in agreement and then relayed the information to Henry.

It turned out that carriages were prohibited from using Chungling Street and had to stop at designated areas. Henry instructed the coachman to stop the carriage as required, and then reported to Joeliffe:

“Your Highness, Chung Ling Street is pedestrian-only. The carriages should either stop at the designated area over there or wait at the end of the street. In my opinion, it would be better to have them wait here.”

Joliv was captivated by the scene before him. He looked at the main street and the shops that had only just opened, yet the street was already bustling with people, far more lively than their capital.

Ignoring Henry's words, he nodded repeatedly, "We'll do as you say." As he spoke, his gaze fell on the exquisite three-story shop in front of him, "What does this shop sell? There are quite a few customers. Let's go in and take a look."

They arrived in Kyoto the day before yesterday afternoon and rested at the inn. They went out yesterday morning and soon encountered that incident, which is how they met Princess Jing and the others.

After lunch, we were busy moving from the inn to the post station, and we didn't even get to stroll around the streets, let alone notice how many luxurious shops there were in the capital.

As soon as they stepped into the Butterfly Pavilion, Joliv and his companions were stunned by the interior decoration. The vermilion pillars were adorned with gilded carvings, and glass lamps hung from the beams, bright and exquisite. Such grandeur was something they had never seen in the Moon Rong Kingdom.

The waiter at the door was not flustered when he saw several blond men arrive. He had seen these guests enter the Drunken Immortal Restaurant across the street yesterday and was already used to it.

He smiled and stepped forward to greet the guests, then instructed the waiter beside him to invite the manager.

Jolief and his companions couldn't wait for the shopkeeper to arrive, so they started looking at the items one by one. Only then did they realize that this shop was a cosmetics shop.

"Your Highness! Look! Look! They even have perfume here!" Charles exclaimed, holding up a small porcelain bottle decorated with flowers, his voice filled with delight.

Henry hurriedly asked the waiter beside him in slightly broken Xichu dialect, "This...this small porcelain bottle contains perfume?"
