Lau Cheung Fen

Lau Cheung Fen was a Shou merchant who travelled with the merchant captain Ran Ai Yu on her vessel the Jie Zuo to Faerûn in the mid-1360s DR.

History
He accompanied Ran Ai Yu when she arrived in Innarlith on the Lake of Steam in 1365 DR. There he met Ivar Devorast, a Cormyrean engineer tasked by the city-state with building a canal that would connect the Lake of Steam to the Nagaflow. Lau, visited the canal site, and acted on behalf of the Shou merchant fleet to give his support for the endeavour. He was interested in buying porcelain ships like the Jie Zuo from Ivar Devorast when he discovered that Devorast had been its builder, but he was shocked to discover that Devorast only built one and would never build another one.
