198: Chapter 196: Glaze Treasure Mirror and the Handsome Young Man 198: Chapter 196: Glaze Treasure Mirror and the Handsome Young Man After greeting these senior officials, the service staff standing on both sides, under Lin Yi’s instruction, turned back to their posts.
However, as they left, those officials suddenly seemed as if they had lost their souls, and some even stretched out their hands involuntarily as if they wanted to speak up and stop them.
But soon, they seemed to remember the occasion they were in, so the outstretched hands were awkwardly retracted, while their gazes reluctantly moved away from the salespeople.
Even though the eyes were pulled back and the hands were withdrawn, their hearts had already followed the salespeople.
Only at this moment, as the enchanting women had all left, did the hearts of these female family members heave a long sigh of relief.
Their hostility gradually subsided.
Looking at Lin Yi at this moment, after glancing over everyone’s faces, the corner of his mouth carried an elusive smile, as if he suddenly thought of something.
His gaze then turned to the bamboo slips in everyone’s hands, before he spoke out to the crowd:
“Oh, right, all the esteemed officials must have already received those bamboo slips, right?
If there is an item that an official is interested in, hand over the bamboo slip to our salesperson when paying, and our salesperson will directly deduct the amount on it.
Hehe, I’m sure all the esteemed officials are already eager, so I won’t say more; please feel free to look around.”
With the end of his words, the officials finally came back to their senses.
Thankfully, they found that their colleagues around them were almost no different from themselves.
This gave them a bit of relief.
After all, if everyone else acted too calm and only they were shocked, it would be a loss of face.
After regaining their composure, they all put on a cheerful demeanor, pretending nothing had happened, and greeted Lin Yi.
Then they chatted with each other and dispersed.
Everything here was so luxuriously decorated, even the floors were paved with glazed tiles, which heightened their curiosity about what was being sold here.
Of course, whatever they said might be one thing, but what they truly thought was another, unknown.
In any case, they’d never admit that they were anxious to look at those voluptuous salespeople.
Not to mention the other officials, let’s talk about the Fourth Prince at this moment.
After Lin Yi finished speaking, he too pretended to be composed, picked up the bamboo slip in his hand, and approached one of the salespeople.
And this salesperson was one he had noticed before as the most beautiful of the group.
Or more precisely, the one with the best figure.
It was obvious what this old man was scheming.
When Lin Yi saw his gaze, he had already guessed what was going through his mind.
However, Lin Yi disdained such thoughts with a scoff.
These sales staff had gone through special training, and their loyalty was unquestionable.
Not only that, even though they dressed in avant-garde clothing, each of them came from a decent family.
They were like the Qinglou’s courtesans, skilled in arts without selling their bodies.
Even though they were in the midst of mire, they preserved their purity.
Moreover, these people all came from Nanshan, and it could be said that their lives were saved by Lin Yi, family and all.
Thus, their loyalty to Lin Yi was naturally unquestionable.
When the officials scattered, their gazes never left the sales staff.
The women’s gazes were similar at the beginning; however, their looks were not of appreciation but full of vigilance.
But when they truly saw the items inside the counters, their eyes instantly lit up with countless little stars.
Temporarily forgetting about the gazes of their lords, they poured their entire focus onto each item inside the counters.
Especially when these ladies noticed the full-body Glaze Treasure Mirror placed at the center of the hall, they almost drooled.
The love of beauty is an ageless trait of women, regardless of the era or age.
Especially for these ladies of noble officials, who had status and position, their only fear was the loss of favor.
Therefore, which one of them wasn’t using every possible mean to take care of themselves, to show their best side to their lords, to secure their husband’s affections and prevent them from being temptations by other sirens.
Upon seeing this mirror, almost every woman found it impossible to move.
However, the area around this mirror was fenced off, so it was clearly impossible for them to touch it up close.
Even from a distance, however, they could still clearly see their own appearances in the mirror.
This caused them to become even more enamored with the mirror to the point of madness.
Almost everyone had the same thought: no matter what, they must convince their lord to buy this mirror and take it home.
Because all these women were gathered around the mirror, the officials started to grow impatient.
Although they were also quite curious about the Glazed Mirror, they were more interested in the qipao-clad saleswomen.
And so, they began to slowly separate from their ladies.
The female family members also started to congregate in small groups, with women browsing together and men browsing alone.
Obviously, this scene was also within Lin Yi’s expectations.
Just as the male officials approached the female salespeople one after another, at the ladies’ side, a few exceptionally handsome young men approached.
What they wore were the Zhongshan suits, the exclusive uniform of the shop’s service staff.
“Ladies, this Glaze Treasure Mirror is the treasure of our shop.
You must have already seen this mirror, which clearly reflects…”
It must be said that with the appearance of these young men, all the ladies felt a tickle in their hearts as if scratched by a cat.
Yet, because their lords were not far away, they did not show the slightest odd expression.
After all, they knew who provided them with everything they had.
If their lords were to see them chatting and laughing with those young men, they would surely not end up well.
Of course, deep inside, they harbored another sort of thought.
