Overseas trade, new-style gunpowder mines...
None of these are things ordinary people can get involved with.
No wonder they set up a threshold.
But I wonder who the owner of this tea house is...
Thinking of this, Li Yan shook his head inwardly.
The Cheng Family has a big industry, but they're also somewhat in decline. They provided a clue but didn't consider fully, not mentioning the background of this tea house.
"Guest, would you like to stay here, or go to a private room?"
"Let's go to a private room, it's quieter."
"Alright, please follow me."
Li Yan followed the waiter up the wooden stairs, reaching the second floor of the tea house. The style was the same, but there were separate private rooms.
"Guest, please wait a moment."
The waiter led him into a private room and then turned to leave.
Li Yan casually sat down and looked around.
This private room wasn't small, it was spacious and bright inside.
