Traveling Incognito Amid the Bustle of Everyday Life

The next faction slowly emerged.

The people of Chaoge City cheered in waves.

These are all heroes who defended their country.

These are their elite soldiers, whom they are very proud of.

Nature certainly deserves their cheers and admiration.

One camp after another marched past the city gate.

This allowed the people of Chaoge City to experience what elite soldiers and heroic spirit truly meant.

The next formation soon approached slowly.

This formation is a chariot formation.

The chariots of the Yin Shang were terrifying in themselves, like mobile fortresses.

Covered in spikes from head to toe, the chariot was powered by three heavily armored horses.

Four or five soldiers stood on the chariot.

Hundreds of javelins were stored in specific locations on the chariot.

This enormous lump of iron rumbled past the gates of Chaoge.

It certainly elicited gasps of surprise from many.

Most of the legions have already been inspected.

The last faction consisted of ten giant dragons.

These ten giant dragons, each a different color, were sent by the Dragon King Ao Guang of the East Sea.

These dragons all fall under Wushuang's jurisdiction.

She is Ye Xuan's maid by day.

This time, the army was reviewed.

Ye Xuan then pulled out the ten giant dragons as well.

The main idea was to broaden the horizons of ordinary people.

When these ten giant dragons transformed into their true forms, they swaggered through the air in a triumphant display.

The people in the city erupted in gasps of surprise.

They actually saw the dragon up close.

Each dragon was hundreds of feet long, soaring through the air with an air of swagger and majesty, which was truly amazing.

This naturally astonished them.

They had never imagined observing a dragon so closely.

They could see every scale and every fang on the dragon's body clearly.

That one move was enough for them to boast about for half their lives.

When the dozen or so soldier formations and the dragon formation finished their inspection.

It had already gotten dark.

The people finally left reluctantly after a long while.

Today, they have finally seen something new.

Everything they saw this afternoon filled them with endless curiosity and excitement.

To witness such a grand occasion on the first day of the new year is an absolute honor for them.

Ye Xuan then led a large group of civil and military officials to the military camp for a visit and to offer their condolences.

It was already late at night when I got back.

Early the next morning.

Ye Xuan then led Wushuang and Daji to Chaoge for another incognito visit.

Since there's not much to do during the Chinese New Year, Ye Xuan naturally wants to relax a bit.

After this period of relaxation, it seems like all that's left is to work hard.

The streets remained incredibly lively.

A wide variety of snacks and trinkets were available in an endless stream.

The two women were very excited to see so many strange and unusual things.

In particular, many things that had never appeared before appeared on the streets.

For example, roasted chestnuts.

For example, candied hawthorn berries, rice cakes, candied fruits, and other similar items.

There was nothing like this before, in the entire Yin Shang, ever since His Human Emperor wrote dozens of books at once.

These things are all mentioned in books.

Although they were just small gadgets, they were actually made by ordinary people.

These items are extremely popular now that they've been made.

Therefore, the street disturbances naturally attracted many people to come out and buy and sell.

These items were an instant hit not only with children but also with adults.

After all, these kinds of snacks each have their own unique flavor and appeal.

"Master, what's that up ahead? Is that the sugar figurine described in your book?"

"Shall we go buy some sugar figurines?"

Su Daji looked at the old man selling sugar figurines in front of her, then grabbed Ye Xuan's arm and started to act coquettishly.

The Wushuang woman also looked over, her eyes revealing a look of surprise.

They had never seen these strange and unusual things before, and seeing them for the first time was truly a novel experience.

Su Changkong smiled and shook her head, then walked over to the sugar figurine stall.

The man selling sugar figurines was an old craftsman with a face full of wrinkles.

He was probably just an old farmer.

Later, as he got older and could no longer do farm work, he stayed at home to retire.

Unexpectedly, while reading the books created by His Human Emperor in my spare time...

I happened to see this so-called sugar figurine.

After some research, he actually managed to make it.

That's why I set up a stall on the street, which is a way to supplement my family's income.

To ease the pressure on her son and daughter-in-law.

Unexpectedly, business was booming after I set up a stall.

He even earned more money than his son at one point, which, undeniably, made him extremely satisfied.

Although the old man was old, he had a youthful face and white hair and was full of energy.

Their clothes were clean, which gave them a peaceful appearance.

A group of children surrounded the old man.

The children all craned their necks, watching the master craftsman make sugar figurines.

The master craftsman's hands are incredibly skillful; all sorts of small animals come to life and are absolutely adorable.

Smaller animals include piglets, rabbits, and puppies.

There were also some rather large sugar figurines, some even depicting War Elephant Cavalry.

It must be said that this old man is indeed quite skillful.

This method immediately elicited gasps of surprise from the children.

After all, in their young minds, the master craftsman's skill was simply miraculous.

Ye Xuan's appearance here with two women seemed somewhat out of place.

After all, kids prefer this.

Seeing Ye Xuan appear here, so many children couldn't help but laugh at him, saying that such a grown man like Ye Xuan also loved sweets.

Seeing that he was being ridiculed, Ye Xuan flew into a rage.

They immediately adopted a menacing demeanor and tried to capture the children.

The children burst into laughter and scattered like birds and beasts.

Ye Xuan straightened up and laughed as well.

This is life.

This is the true essence of everyday life.

"Master, how much are your sugar figurines?"

Seeing Ye Xuan's extraordinary aura and extremely luxurious attire, the old man knew that a big client had arrived.

"Young master, this humble business is just a small operation, hardly worthy of being called a fine establishment. Two sugar figurines for a cut, but if you'd like, how about three?"

This experienced craftsman sells them for a reasonable price.

Two or three sugar figurines for every cut – that's a really good price, low profit margin, high volume.

Even at a low price, this old man can still make a considerable amount of money in a day.

Sometimes he earns more than his son, which makes the old man extremely happy.

He gave half of his earnings to his wife and the other half to his son to help with household expenses.

He would keep some for himself and often go to the distillery to buy some good wine, braised pork head, and other delicacies to have a drink with his son.

They were living a very carefree life.

He was clearly extremely content with such days.

They will be wealthy in their old age, with kind grandchildren and filial children, enjoying the joys of family life.

He was already very satisfied.

Ye Xuan chuckled.

"Old man, you're quite something! His Human Emperor only briefly mentioned this sugar figurine in a book, but you actually managed to create it. I must say, this is truly your good fortune; you are destined for such wealth and honor!"
