"Master Li is here!"
A scream startled a flock of duck necks.
Hundreds of people stretched their necks to look, each with their round eyes staring in trance, trying to stick their heads out to see, which was indeed a bit weird.
"Mr. Li, are you selling this loom?"
"Master Li, I want one hundred. One hundred!"
"Mr. Li, this spell should be very simple. How about we discuss it? I'll give you five hundred taels of gold." Sure enough, there are still smart people out there.
"Yes, how about we communicate?"
…
After a brief silence, the scene finally erupted. Fu Minghui and his many guards were unable to stop these crazy businessmen.
Li Xian smiled, but he carefully distinguished every word. When he heard someone say "the spell is simple", Li Xian laughed even more happily. Yes, the technique is simple, but the imperial edict is not simple; my buddy played a good trick with His Majesty the Emperor last night, just for you guys.
Come on, come on, the trap has been dug for you.
After a little relaxation, Li Xian took the initiative to step forward and said, "Thank you all for your kindness, but can you please send a few representatives so that we can discuss it on the spot and in public?"
Soon several representatives were pushed out, three in total.
"Hello, Mr. Li. I am Guo Youcai from the Guo family."
"Hello, Mr. Li. I am Liu Shuren from the Liu family."
"Hello, Mr. Li. I am Huang Youquan from the Huang family."
"Hello, everyone." Li Xian smiled happily, "Please wait for a moment."
Without waiting for the three to respond, Li Xian waved his hand behind him. Li family's chief steward Yang Zhong led the Li family's servants to carry out two plaques framed with glass and carefully hung them on the wall behind Li Xian.
"Industrial Expo" and "Colorful Textile Machine" are the two plaques with a bright red seal behind them.
After the two plaques were hung, the crowd was so excited that they looked like ducks whose necks had been strangled. The three people who had just been pushed out looked even more upset, as if they had eaten a fly.
Asshole, why didn't you just post it earlier? You had to wait until we all stood up and had planned the ideas and order of our speeches before you posted it. It's so abominable!
Although everyone knew that the Great Xia Kingdom was corrupt to its core, who dared to openly say that they would not obey the emperor's orders? Before the emperor could take action, his opponents would be able to kill him.
"Sorry, sorry," Li Xian smiled brightly, "If you have anything to say, you can say it now."
Now? Why would you say that now
Seeing that everyone was silent for a while, Li Xian spoke up instead, "Someone, come here, how can you be so tactless? Move out the chairs."
More than 500 chairs that had been prepared long ago were brought out and placed one by one; everyone finally sat down consciously. Li Xian then spoke with a serious face, "Since everyone has no questions, then Li Xian will say a few words. First, this textile machine can be sold. Since it is displayed in this industrial expo, of course it must be sold. The price is 500 taels of gold per textile machine. Each person is limited to one. Second..."
"500 taels of gold, Mr. Li, you are crazy about money!" Before Li Xian finished the second point, someone was dissatisfied.
