The Ministry of Works was filled with a jubilant atmosphere. White porcelain had taken the Capital by storm, and the entire stock in the warehouse had long since sold out. The artisans were working overtime just to keep up with production. White porcelain was currently the most fashionable item in the Capital; whether bought for personal use or as a gift for friends and family, it was highly sought after. Due to the implementation of the purchase limit, the porcelain was hard to come by even with gold in hand; to buy it, one had to queue for registration. The Crown Prince attached great importance to this matter, so even those with high official ranks and great power were of no use—everything had to be done according to the rules, or one would be practically throwing their life away in front of the Crown Prince.
Zhao Yan had handed the matter of the white porcelain over to Chén Dōngpíng. Zhao Yan had been responsible for the initial arrangements, but now that the show had begun, Chén Dōngpíng could handle the rest without needing him to watch over it every moment. Chén Dōngpíng would report the situation to Zhao Yan every three days.
"My Lord, your strategy is truly brilliant. Currently, we only sell one hundred pieces a day, yet demand still far outstrips supply. There are now over fifteen hundred people in the queue waiting to purchase, and many of them have requested five pieces each," Chén Dōngpíng said, his tone filled with admiration.
