Chapter 79 A Fairy Descends to Earth: Bai Mengran
"Thank you for the compliment!"
Wang Ergou was also surprised to learn that he had this talent for carrying things, and he was even praised by the fairy sister!
He happily took the candy, carefully put it in his mouth, and found it cool, refreshing, and sweet. His eyes narrowed as he savored it!
Tempted by the candy, Wang Xiaochuan finally managed to memorize it before landing, albeit haltingly, and received his reward as he wished.
The colorful carriage landed on the stone road in front of "Ding's Brokerage," once again startling the people of Heshun Town who were witnessing the scene on the road.
They stood at a distance around the carriage, discussing amongst themselves, but no one dared to approach.
Faced with this exceptionally magnificent carriage that had seemingly descended from the sky, everyone assumed that a very important person must be inside. After all, ordinary people like them had never even seen such a luxurious carriage, let alone ridden in one.
Upon seeing this, the manager of Ding's brokerage firm hurriedly came out to personally greet the distinguished guests.
All that could be seen was the opening of the rear door of the carriage, and steps with handrails slowly rising from both sides of the carriage...
Immediately afterwards, a young girl dressed in a light green dress descended gracefully. The dress was exquisite, and the hem of the skirt rippled with her steps, as if a spiritual energy flowed within it.
She moved with light, graceful steps, and only after landing did everyone see her face clearly.
Her face was absolutely stunning, as if she were a fairy who had stepped out of a painting and descended to the mortal world.
Her skin was as white as snow, with a soft pink tinge. Her eyebrows were like distant mountains, swirling and graceful like wisps of smoke, and her eyes were clear, bright, and deep, as if they held a thousand stars.
Just standing there, she seemed to be surrounded by a dreamlike halo, like a fairy descending to earth, so beautiful that no one could look away.
Who is this girl? How could she possess such an unparalleled beauty?
Bai Mengran wasn't actually being pretentious; it's just that before she got off the carriage, she saw a lot of people around her, pointing at her and talking about something.
So she put on a little air of authority, after all, she always had a firm grasp on her demeanor.
Bai Mengran walked straight up to Manager Ding, smiled, and was about to ask a question when he interrupted her.
"I am the manager of Ding's Brokerage Firm. May I ask what brings you here today, esteemed guest?"
Manager Ding bowed slightly, his expression respectful, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.
"Shopkeeper, I've come to inquire about any shops in good locations in town that are currently available for rent?"
"Young lady, you're here to rent a shop? Then you've come to the right place! We have all kinds of shops here!"
Shopkeeper Ding welcomed Bai Mengran into the shop and had his assistant bring the registration book, then found several shops that roughly met her needs.
Bai Mengran was completely unaware of the specific locations recorded in the register, and suggested that Manager Ding take her to see the situation in person.
Manager Ding readily agreed, gave the shop assistants a few instructions, and then planned to personally lead Bai Mengran to see the shop.
"Manager Ding, I have a carriage here. Could you please show the driver the exact locations of the shops so he can take us there?"
Bai Mengran had a high-speed carriage for transportation, so she was too lazy to walk. Besides, the carriage had a map of the entire Anshun Kingdom, so she could use it for navigation as long as she knew the location.
"Hey, good, good!"
She told Manager Ding to tell the coachman directly, and the coachman would help her locate the location. Seeing that there was nothing more for her to do, Bai Mengran returned to the carriage.
Er Gou and Xiao Chuan hadn't gotten out of the car yet, so Bai Mengran told them to stay inside and continue memorizing the soliciting script to avoid making mistakes later.
The two were very obedient, sitting quietly in the car and repeating those few words over and over again in a soft voice. By now, they had memorized them perfectly.
After Manager Ding finished explaining things to the coachman, he took shaky steps to get into the carriage, but he suddenly froze.
I hadn't noticed before, but this carriage is actually two-story? How was that possible? The carriage is constructed with such exquisite skill...
Once inside the carriage, every detail revealed its unique character. Manager Ding sat down in the corner seat with a slightly reserved air, his heart filled with shock, leaving him speechless for a moment.
After the carriage started moving, Manager Ding didn't look out the window and assumed it was moving slowly.
I was shocked when I saw it!
Is this really the speed a horse-drawn carriage can travel? It's practically leaving afterimages...
Seeing that Manager Ding was obviously uncomfortable, Bai Mengran gave Er Gou a look, indicating that what he had just memorized could come in handy.
Er Gou immediately understood, but for no reason his heart suddenly skipped a few beats. He had already memorized it, but now he suddenly felt a wave of panic sweep over his body.
It's like memorizing a speech countless times in private, but when it's time to actually go on stage to give the speech, you still feel a strange kind of nervousness.
Er Gou mentally cheered himself up, then coughed lightly and spoke to Manager Ding.
"Handsome, handsome man..."
Shopkeeper Ding didn't quite catch what he shouted, and smiled at Er Gou with a puzzled look on his face.
Er Gou flashed what he thought was an enthusiastic smile and continued reciting.
"Our boss, Mr. Bai, has opened a brand new and interesting place called 'Fairyland' in Peach Blossom Town. We even have a special flying carriage to pick you up and drop you off for just five coins. If you're interested, you're welcome to come and have a look!"
This time, Manager Ding heard clearly, but he couldn't believe it. Could he really fly in the sky like he had just seen for only five coins? Was that what it meant?
Bai Mengran handed out the first flyer of the day at the opportune moment.
"Manager Ding, take a look at this. It has an overview of several of our shops. You can bring your family to our carriage, and you can enjoy a discount by showing this flyer!"
Shopkeeper Ding took the flyer and was immediately captivated by the lifelike illustrations of various foods and shops.
"Also, here's some candy we sell in Wonderland. Here's one for you to try for free. If you like it, come back and buy it next time."
Bai Mengran gave him a mint and asked him to try it.
"Okay, okay, thank you! I'll definitely be there to support you!"
Shopkeeper Ding put the candy into his pocket, reluctant to eat it, intending to save it for his son to try.
While the three were talking, the carriage stopped in front of the first rented shop.
Shopkeeper Ding was wondering why the carriage had stopped moving when he looked closely and realized that they had already arrived at the shop furthest north of the city.
The distance from the south to the north of the city is at least ten miles, and it would normally take a horse-drawn carriage nearly 45 minutes to travel. Yet we arrived in such a short time.
Before he could even be surprised, he saw that the coachman had already opened the carriage door, and Manager Ding quickly got off the carriage.
After getting off, he looked back at the magical carriage in a daze, thinking that when he got back he would call his wife and two children to go and see this so-called "fairyland".
