Treasure Silver Building was a three-story structure, similar to most shops of the era, with green bricks and upturned corners, carved red doors and windows, only the roof tiles were somewhat grey, perhaps symbolizing silver.
Qian Yixiu had once seen the South Sea Golden Pearl in this shop; at that time, the shop had acquired two pearls. One was sold for five thousand taels of silver, leaving the other as the shop's treasure and not for sale.
Upon entering the main door, they were promptly greeted by a waiter, who didn't show any disdain for their simple clothing.
Fearing disrespect, Qian Sangui specifically wore his best silk long robe today and even covered his sparse hair with a cloth.
His lovely younger siblings still wore half-new cotton outfits. Even so, the two children drew many second glances, especially from the women, who couldn't stop praising them. This made Qian Sangui very happy.
