Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm-Chapter 1609 - 1608: The Great Sage Figure

The overwhelming popularity of shadow puppetry truly exceeded Yang Wenxiao’s expectations. When Qiao Xiaomai first proposed this idea, he had no hope for it. It was a completely new and unknown field, and seeing Qiao Xiaomai’s hesitant demeanor at the time, it seemed she also held little expectation.

Neither of them expected much, but who would have thought that shadow puppetry would explode.

It exploded like popcorn!

Thinking of the taste of popcorn, he couldn’t help but click his tongue twice. This Qiao Xiaomai really had new ideas when it came to food. How well she fried those corn kernels in a pot until they popped.

She added milk and honey inside, and the taste was quite nice.

It was a pity his teeth weren’t in good shape, so he couldn’t eat much, just taste it a bit.

Ah, life truly is good, especially with a junior like Qiao Xiaomai around. He was really curious about what she would come up with next.

With a sigh in his heart, he ordered one of his textile shops to be converted into a theater and also instructed Zuixian Building and Jiwaju to open theaters in various places to perform shadow puppetry.

The popularity of these three books was not just in the Capital City; it was throughout Daqi. The audience in the Capital City shouldn’t be the only ones to enjoy shadow puppetry; people in other places deserve this too.

The surrounding areas responded well, so they should also sell throughout Daqi, and they need to increase the production of collectible figures.

Previously uncertain, they only made a hundred of them; now, seeing the current situation, selling ten thousand is no problem.

Yang Wenxiao, though staying at Field Manor, issued orders one after another, and the people below obediently followed. As a result, the Capital City was once again swept by the craze for surrounding merchandise. Many people owned inexpensive items like teacups, fans, and umbrellas, and quite a few had already placed deposits for the legendary collectible figures.

When it’s a Royal product, it must be of high quality, and people were not worried about being cheated.

Buying this was buying affection and love, even belief.

With more surrounding merchandise sold, silver flowed quickly into their pockets, and with more tickets sold, copper coins also swiftly filled their bags. These things, though cheap, sell in large numbers and yield a considerable profit over a month.

Additionally, the collectible figure of the Great Sage that many anticipated finally came out. The Great Sage had a phoenix-winged golden crown on his head, wore golden chainmail armor, stepped on lotus-threaded cloud-walking boots, held a golden-banded staff, riding on a somersault cloud in a pose ready to subdue demons, vividly lifelike, bold and handsome.

Each of these collectible figures sold for one thousand one hundred and ten taels, and all ten thousand were snapped up as soon as they appeared in the theater.

Those who came late and didn’t buy it looked at others with envy while urging the theater people to hurry up and produce more.

To be honest, such a Great Sage figure indeed exceeded both Qiao Xiaomai’s and Yang Wenxiao’s expectations. Yang Wenxiao instructed the craftsmen to make them carefully, and judging by the results, these craftsmen truly put their hearts into it. Every detail, every color combination, matched the Blueprints exactly.

This kind of collectible figure seemed as if the Great Sage really stepped out of the book. It wasn’t just on the pages or the shadow puppetry; it appeared right in front of their eyes, majestic and handsome, vividly lifelike.

Yang Wenxiao held it in his hand and examined it carefully for a while, then sighed and said, "You’re right, this isn’t selling for silver, it’s for affection. Seeing it with my own eyes, this feeling is much more joyful than earning silver."

Qiao Xiaomai nodded vigorously. This ceramic collectible figure was much more exquisite than those made of various materials in later generations! The craftsmanship of ancient common people was awe-inspiring!

Each piece could be considered a heirloom craft!

Selling it for only a thousand taels is too cheap!
