Seeing that everyone was arguing, Li Xian finally spoke up, "Everyone, we need to think about changing the venue carefully. After all, Li Xian said last year that the event will be held in the imperial capital this year. I still need to think about this matter."
Li Xian said so, and everyone could only agree. Then there was a new question, everyone asked, can we have more items for the agent
When we first started the agency system in the first half of the year, we were all unsure, so we were all cautious—a little stingy. Now it’s different. After seeing the business prospects, everyone naturally has some regrets.
If it were a normal situation, Li Xian would definitely say firmly - follow the rules and ensure fairness. But now the situation is "one should be grateful to the person who has received him". Since the other party has received him so warmly, Li Xian should not say so. His "good brothers" have helped a lot.
After thinking for a while, Li Xian took a compromise approach. "Since you all think highly of me, I will reveal a small business idea. You have seen the power of industry, so can you imagine how far industry will develop in the future? Li Xian is not very clear, but at least in the process of suppressing the rebellion in Zhongshan County, Li Xian saw a possibility, that is, industry and commerce may dominate the war. For example, this time we were able to win, to quell Luliang County and suppress the rebellion in Zhongshan County with less than 50,000 miscellaneous soldiers, relying on... the power of industry! To be precise, it is the power of arms in the industrial classification. I call all technologies and items related to war arms. The range of arms is very wide, from war instruments, to artillery, to large items such as ironclad ships, and also includes textiles, food, and transportation that serve the military."
Li Xian's words enlightened everyone present, and dozens of pairs of eyes flickered like light bulbs.
Beside him, Zhang Quan clapped his hands at the right moment and said, "Sister Caiyun (madam), ask all the girls to come over and drink with us. There's not even anyone to pour the wine."
"Come on, come on! Girls, come out quickly!"
With a greeting, the women who had rested in the surrounding rooms came flying in like butterflies. The merchants around stopped one or two of them and started laughing strangely, and left in pairs.
Soon, only five people were left at the scene: Li Xian, Zhang Quan, Shangguan Yong, Kong Yingzhi, and Zhang Ping, along with a few women around them.
Zhang Quan pointed at the twins who were playing the piano in front of him and said, "Brother, this is prepared for you. You must not refuse it."
Li Xian looked at the two blushing twins. To be honest, they were so cute. However, Li Xian cursed in his heart that these two bastards had bad intentions. No matter what, he was the "prince consort" now. If he really accepted the twins, all kinds of rumors would spread in Wuyang City tomorrow.
As for what would happen next, Li Xian could even "calculate" it in advance. As long as there were rumors, Shangguan Yong would definitely lead troops to capture him; however, this would only inspire people to make more associations. In the end, it would definitely cause a big uproar in the city.
Of course, Li Xian is not afraid of these little troubles now, but these things always make people feel uncomfortable.
