Chapter 1306: Chapter 1307 Hua Street
"I always feel something’s off. Dantia is not known as a tourist destination for gemstones, so why did we bring back a bunch of amber souvenirs?"
While eating dinner at the restaurant, Feng Yuan scratched his head as he remembered something and said, glancing at Feng Yuan, Qi Chen said helplessly,
"We couldn’t exactly bring flowers back, could we? Weren’t those floral souvenirs good enough for you?"
"Well, in a way, they’re too ordinary. They’re not as interesting as those flowers preserved in amber."
Feng Yuan shook his head and said helplessly. Those floral souvenirs were nothing more than dried flowers or decorations made to look like flowers. To Feng Yuan, they were too plain and didn’t hold much meaning, at least not to his own taste.
"It seems like honey might also be considered a specialty of Dantia, though who knows if it would satisfy you."
Dou Yanlan suddenly spoke while flipping through the travel guide. While she didn’t find the floral souvenirs as lacking as Feng Yuan described, since he wasn’t pleased, she thought they might as well see what else was suitable.
"Honey? That sounds like an option. Though it’s food, it’s still pretty good, given Dantia’s flowers are considered a specialty."
"And there are candies made from flower petals, but these aren’t sold in the shopping center."
"I wonder if Hua Street will be open tonight."
With a slight frown, Dou Yanlan looked at the travel guide and said. Feng Yuan, eating, said,
"Then let’s check it out later. If it’s specifically for souvenirs, it should be open quite late, right?"
He wasn’t too sure, but figured it would be the case. However, all concentrated on Hua Street? Feng Yuan couldn’t help but recall Maomu City’s specialty street, which wasn’t that impressive.
"Hurry up and finish eating so we can go check it out~"
"What a strong floral scent, Xiao Ji, are you okay?"
Just as they reached the entrance of Hua Street, a strong fragrance hit them. Feng Yuan looked at Xiao Ji, who indeed seemed uncomfortable. A moment later, she turned into her Eggshell Chicken form and squeezed into Feng Yuan’s arms, looking pitifully at him. Holding Xiao Ji, Feng Yuan curiously looked around this place called Hua Street.
Compared to other parts of the city, Hua Street had very old buildings. Though renovated, they still retained their original appearance. The pervasive flowers might be the reason it was called Hua Street.
The lushly blooming flowers filled every corner, their fragrance converging on this street, ultimately forming the dense aroma everyone smelled. Feng Yuan didn’t know if anyone still lived here, but he supposed not. Even he would feel uncomfortable spending a night.
"This fragrance is a bit too much."
Covering his nose, Qi Chen looked at the flowers densely clumped around and said in bewilderment. Such a rich floral scent, was it really okay? And looking at the passing tourists, they seemed similar to Feng Yuan and his group, quite unaccustomed to the strong floral scent.
"Let’s first see how the products in the shops are."
Feng Yuan said, holding Xiao Ji while casually pushing open a door next to him. The sound of a bell tinkled, and as Feng Yuan and his group entered the store, a smiling attendant approached them. Unlike the overwhelming floral scent outside, inside there was only a faint, elegant fragrance lingering around them.
Taking a deep breath, everyone felt a sense of relaxation. Feng Yuan looked behind him, then at the store with surprise and said,
"Is this deliberate?"
"What do you mean deliberate?"
Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan quizzically, not understanding what he meant, and Feng Yuan, examining the perfume bottles, said,
"That excessively rich floral scent outside was deliberate."
"That’s just a coincidence. Everyone wants to showcase their shop’s scent to those passing by, and when so many fragrances mix together, this kind of situation inevitably happens."
Seemingly accustomed to such inquiries, the attendant explained with a smile. Looking at the perfumes, Feng Yuan glanced at Xiao Ji in his arms and said,
"Do you want to have a look first?"
"Let’s not bother."
Noticing that the store exclusively sold perfumes, Qi Chen hesitated for a moment and said. He wasn’t interested in perfumes and wasn’t sure about their quality here; it would be awkward to try them all without buying anything.
"Let’s look around first; there’s no need to buy immediately."
Looking at Qi Chen, Feng Yuan grinned mischievously and said. Qi Chen glanced at Feng Yuan speechlessly, wondering if he was planning something devious. At this moment, the attendant also spoke up,
"Guests can browse and try. If you like something, you don’t have to buy right away. Feel free to explore Hua Street and then decide."
Hearing the attendant’s words, Feng Yuan looked at them with surprise and said,
"Could it be that all of Hua Street is owned by the same boss?"
"Of course not! But we all have confidence in our perfumes, and honestly, the fragrances we mix are all different. No one can guarantee that guests will definitely like theirs. We believe that as long as guests tour Hua Street, they’ll find a perfume they love."
The attendant said proudly. Looking at them, Feng Yuan didn’t know what to say. He couldn’t quite grasp their confidence, but it certainly encouraged him to try them out? Glancing at Xiao Ji in his arms, Feng Yuan ultimately decided against it.
Dou Yanlan pulled Qi Chen forward, curiously examining the perfumes. Because Dantia’s flower sea contained a vast number of flowers, this store organized its sections by primary flower ingredient. Each section featured a blossoming flower pot corresponding to the ingredient. If unsure of their preferred fragrance, customers could identify it via the flower scents.
"Why would she pull him aside for advice while choosing a perfume?"
Yang Hongzhi looked puzzled watching Dou Yanlan drag Qi Chen around, continuously asking questions, and Veronia lightly chuckled as she observed the flowers and said,
"The perfume isn’t for herself. Naturally, his opinion is quite important."
Scratching his head, Yang Hongzhi seemed a bit confused. Feng Yuan glanced at Najia and said,
"Aren’t you picking one? It seems you could use those perfumes too."
After hesitating, Najia looked expectantly at Yang Hongzhi. Though unclear on Veronia’s implication, he still accompanied Najia to select perfumes. Seeing Yang Hongzhi pestered by Najia’s questions, Feng Yuan chuckled mischievously, feeling schadenfreude.
Agunas looked at Feng Yuan and said,
"How about Gitalien lends a hand, bringing Lanadi and Chen Xin here so you can help them pick gifts on the spot?"
"Little Crocodile! Don’t go too far!"
Frowning at Agunas, Feng Yuan complained, while Veronia covered her mouth, chuckling lightly, and eventually said,
"Then, sir, could I perhaps ask you to help select a suitable perfume for me?"
Looking speechlessly at Veronia, Feng Yuan held Xiao Ji, his eyes darting as he said,
"Xiao Ji doesn’t like those scents, so I can’t get close."
Raising her head, Xiao Ji looked at Feng Yuan, then suddenly jumped down from his arms, returning to her original eagle form, staring at him. But why did the eagle have a look that suggested enjoying the spectacle?
"What about now?"
Stealthily giving Xiao Ji a thumbs-up, Veronia looked at Feng Yuan triumphantly. Scratching his head, Feng Yuan sighed and resignedly accompanied Veronia to pick a perfume.
However, even after going around, not only Feng Yuan and his group, even Dou Yanlan didn’t find a particularly enchanting scent. The store clerks weren’t bothered by this. Though all shops on Hua Street were competitors, they also mutually upheld Hua Street’s reputation. Allowing customers to find their most satisfactory perfume was one of Hua Street’s key features. They wouldn’t break this unwritten agreement for one or two customers and instead recommended names of places possibly selling perfumes to their liking.
Walking out of the shop, Feng Yuan exclaimed,
"I thought they’d keep pushing their products, but they directly pointed us to other shops. I wonder if it’s truly just recommending or forming an alliance."
"It’s still early. We can take our time wandering around."
Glancing at the time, Feng Yuan said. The shops here closed later, and having had dinner relatively early, they had enough time to explore the entire short Hua Street.
Dou Yanlan, looking at the travel guide, said,
"It should be an alliance of the entire Hua Street. It mentions they want every customer to gain the most satisfactory finds. I originally thought it was just hype, but now it seems it might be true."
"Who knows? Let’s hurry on; the street’s fragrance is really strong."
