After reading some of the chapter comments, I have re-written a few chapters to include the character appearance and description, hoping that it would allow the readers to have a more immersive reading. The chapters that I have added the descriptions are on 2, 5, 6, and 32.

After eating breakfast, Jiang Ming, Yang Liqin, and Hong Ling arrived at the Moon Bazaar.
"S-Sir, you\'ve finally arrived," The manager, Cao Dong said as he wiped some of the sweat off his forehead.
Cao Dong was frantic as he explained the huge crowd outside of the Moon Bazaar.
"S-Sir, those people are crowding over the Moon Bazaar but they don\'t seem to be customers at all," Cao Dong was panicking as this was the first day their new owner would be inspecting.
Jiang Ming chuckled as he raised his hand up to stop Cao Dong from speaking anymore.
"Haha, calm down, Cao Dong. Those people are probably waiting for the emperor to arrive," Jiang Ming then said as he echoed Hong Ling to stroll around the Moon Bazaar with Yang Liqin.
"Right this way, Yang Liqin," Hong Ling smiled at her as she guided her around and explained each floor.
After they left, Jiang Ming turned solemn as he glanced at Cao Dong.
"Cao Dong, make a list of everyone attending here and leave some hint that we are open for collaboration," Jiang Ming said as he explained about the Moon Bazaar receiving a token of recognition.
Cao Dong\'s pale expression instantly changed into a blissful mood as he clapped his hand.
"T-The Moon Bazaar is going to receive the famous token of recognition?" Cao Dong said excitedly.
Although the Moon Bazaar is a popular store among people in the Central District, it still wasn\'t qualified to receive a token of recognition.
However, things started to change as soon as the owner shifted to Jiang Ming and Cao Dong knew one thing, Jiang Ming was definitely going to create a storm in the Central District.
"Alright, save the celebration for later and inform all the staff to prepare their mindset," Jiang Ming then said as he waved his hand.
Cao Dong nodded his head as he left Jiang Ming alone to complete his task.
Sometime later, Jiang Ming started stretching his body a bit as he tried to explore the function of the Game Lord\'s Cultivation System.
The Blood Pill refinement was a success so Jiang Ming wished to refine another popular pill that can help boost his income.
\'Most cultivators here are either in the Spiritual Elementary or Spiritual Lord so I should do some automatic refinement about the advancement pill.\' Jiang Ming exclaimed inwardly as he scrolled through the list to find a suitable pill to mass release.
As Jiang Ming clicked on automatic refinement in a Spiritual Elementary advancement pill, someone suddenly approached him.
"Master, I\'ve finally found you." The person shouted in excitement.
Jiang Ming was dumbfounded as he turned around to see who it was.
"Oh, I didn\'t expect to see you here, Little Ren," Jiang Ming teased as he expected Alchemist Ren would be stuck in his little refinement room.
After all, the pill recipe he gave him to study wasn\'t easy.
"You finished the pill refinement I gave you?" Jiang Ming asked as he slowly took a seat down.
"Un, there\'s no way I would dare to show my face in front of master if I hadn\'t completed the task," Alchemist Ren smiled as he retrieved the pill out from his storage ring.
While Alchemist Ren started showing his progress for Jiang Ming to inspect, the crowd had started recognizing Alchemist Ren\'s appearance.
"Isn\'t that Alchemist Ren who recently became a 4th tier alchemist?" A person exclaimed as he caused the crowd to start sneaking a glance at Alchemist Ren.
It didn\'t take long before everyone saw the shiny badge from Alchemist Ren clothes that showed a 4th as labeled.
"Heh, Little Ren, it seems like your popularity is insane." Jiang Ming teased as he handed the pill back to Alchemist Ren.
And he continued, "I didn\'t even receive such cheer when I arrived at my own store."
Alchemist Ren started sweating profusely as he quickly shook his head.
"That\'s not true at all, master. If these ignorant people had seen your alchemy skills then there would be a line reaching the entirety of the Central District to meet you."
"You don\'t have to be nervous as I never care about fame but it\'s good that my disciple had a high reputation." Jiang Ming laughed as he patted Alchemist Ren\'s shoulder.
"How about you become an alchemist for my Moon Bazaar and provide ingredients, alchemy pills, etc." Jiang Ming then suggested.
Jiang Ming had made sure his voice was loud enough for the crowd to hear him clearly.
The crowd soon became frantic as they stared intently at Alchemist Ren for his response in this.
Alchemist Ren noticed the current situation and understood Jiang Ming\'s intention.
With a prideful smile, Alchemist Ren punched his chest lightly as he shouted, "Of course I would become an alchemist for the Moon Bazaar exclusively."
Afterward, Alchemist Ren looked at Jiang Ming who gave him a thumbs up for being quick-witted.
It didn\'t take long for the crowd to go into an uproar when they realized that the Moon Bazaar would not only receive a token of recognition from the emperor, but it would also have a 4th alchemist sponsoring.
The value and reputation of Moon Bazaar had increased exponentially in just one day alone and everyone couldn\'t help but wonder where Chen Peizhu was.
"Chen Peizhu had really struck gold this time. He owned the Moon Bazaar and his wealth would soon become unimaginable." A person sighed inwardly as he became envious of Chen Peizhu.
However, the person didn\'t envy any longer when another person interrupted him.
"I doubt you would be envious of Chen Peizhu since I was here yesterday and the owner had been changed to a young master." The person said, describing how he had witnessed the new owner coming into the Moon Bazaar and was greeted personally by the princess.
"No way, Chen Peizhu must have been filled with regrets then."
"Exactly, imagine giving out the current Moon Bazaar to someone else."
While the crowd started laughing at Chen Peizhu\'s misfortune, none of them had realized Chen Peizhu was standing on the sideline with a darkened expression.
