I am engaged in construction in Datang

“All participants will receive a commemorative gift.”

"The eleventh to fifteenth place winners will receive a 30-centimeter plush doll."

After Wu Qi finished speaking, several fluffy brown bear dolls were carried onto the stage.

The dolls are wearing all kinds of clothes, skirts, overalls, Tang suits... They are also wearing different bow hairpins, hats, bibs, backpacks and other accessories. They are so cute.

As soon as she appeared on the stage, she attracted countless gazes, especially those of children and young ladies, whose eyes lit up.

Cheng Chuliang's cheeks flushed slightly as he stared at the little bear cubs, his breathing becoming heavier.

Yeah!

How can it be so cute!

It’s even more tempting than the little yellow chicken crocheted with wool.

"Labor Law, Labor Law..." Cheng Chu's bright eyes darted around, looking at Wen Zhen and other second-generation civil officials around him: "Who among you has memorized the Labor Law?"

He pointed to one of the little bears wearing a bow tie and said, "Help me win that little bear. I owe you a favor."

"..." Wen Zhen was speechless: "If I win, why would I give it to you? I will definitely give it to my little sister to play with."

"Ten strings of cash!" Cheng Chuliang stretched out a finger.

"Deal!" Wen Zhen got excited and stood up immediately.

Then he sat down again smoothly: "Sorry, I haven't memorized the Labor Law..."

“……” Cheng Chuliang raised his fist.

Lifting it up, Wu Qi continued reading out the prizes.

"The seventh to tenth place winners will receive a bear cub and two pounds of Liuweizhai candy in a can, and the fourth to sixth place winners will receive a bear cub and a two-liter can of rapeseed oil."

After that, seven large glass bottles were brought onto the stage. The glass was opaque, dark in color, and contained bubbles of varying sizes.

It looks somewhat similar to the old colored glaze and is considered a rare item.

People of status were not interested, as they knew that there was a kind of completely transparent glass now, which was a priceless treasure.

Such turbid ones have been gradually eliminated.

But the common people don’t know all that. They just think that the colored glaze is beautiful, and it would look so grand if they put it in their home!

"Third place, a 28-ton truck."

After Wu Qi finished speaking, a large pole wrapped with red flowers was carried onto the stage, and bursts of noise came from the shore. This was several thousand strings of cash!

"Second place, a small pendulum clock."

The value increased dozens of times, and the people beat their chests and stamped their feet, secretly hating themselves for not memorizing the labor law well.

"First place..."

Wu Qi looked at the people around her, her red lips curled up slightly: "A phonograph."

There was silence.

What is a phonograph? What is it good for?

Just as I was still confused, I saw something that looked like a morning glory being carried onto the stage.

Wu Qi put a record into the phonograph and then stirred the small tail on it. The mechanical sound of winding the string was clearly picked up by the microphone and then transmitted to the ears of every citizen.

The scene was silent and solemn, and everyone had an inexplicable premonition that this might be another shocking good thing.

Everything is ready, Wu Qi lets go...

"The birds in the trees are in pairs~

Green water and green mountains bring smiles..."

The sound was slightly different but still clearly audible, the graceful female voice and the deep male voice penetrated into the ears of the people.

No one spoke, and no one even dared to move.

This is a pure "The Legend of the White Snake" song, without those situational dramas, just the interweaving of instruments and vocals, slowly floating in your ears.

After the song was over, you could still hear a pin drop on the shore.

Flower boat.

All the ministers who were originally sitting stood up straight at this moment, extremely shocked.

No one is singing, no one is playing an instrument!

That's the sound made by that morning glory-like thing!

So clear...

"Sister-in-law!" Li Shimin's hands trembled with excitement. This thing, how could this thing...

Li Yin quickly opened a folding fan and fanned herself with air while squinting her eyes.

The warm breeze of late summer blew up her skirt. Li Yin raised her head forty-five degrees and stood gracefully on the bow deck, meeting everyone's shocked gazes.

Fortunately, she was quite smart and brought a fan with her, otherwise her image would have been three points shorter.

"Brother, this little thing can be made with just a little research."

"..."Everyone felt itchy, but they couldn't explain why.

"I know this feeling." Hou Junji said in a muffled voice, "That Gaochang can be destroyed with just a casual attack."

“……”This time even Li Shimin’s fist became hard.

"Oh, so that's how it feels." Li Jing understood and said, "Just like when I fought against the Eastern Turks and Tuyuhun."

Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "Since the political affairs are in my hands, they can be easily accomplished."

The people around them looked at them quietly, all with dead eyes, numb and lifeless.

Li Shimin took a deep breath, then exhaled: "Hahahahaha, come to think of it I also know, isn't it just about making achievements and establishing a career!"

The others dared not say a word.

In this kind of situation where gods are fighting, Changsun Wuji is speechless.

“……”Empress Changsun silently stretched out her finger.

So Li Shimin began to grin.

Li Yin continued, "Don't worry, everyone. I have already prepared this kind of phonograph for you."

The ministers sat down again and drank tea and ate snacks.

"It's just some small tricks. One machine can be sold for tens of thousands of coins." Li Yin was calm and composed, and invisibly stabbed a knife called "poverty" in everyone's heart.

Ordinary people don't need this kind of thing, it's a luxury to make money and can't be cheaper than glass jewelry.

"Then I would like to thank Master Li here." Fang Xuanling bowed to Li Yin, and the others followed suit.

If it was given by someone else, he would definitely not dare to take it.

But it’s okay what Master Li gave. Such a good thing as the phonograph can only be found in this shop. Your Majesty has to ask the female master for it.

They are like the landlord's relatives who have never seen the world, poor and ignorant.

On the shore, after the people realized what was happening, they could no longer stop making noise.

They held back the horn at the beginning.

Then, seeing the lights, everyone forced themselves to remain calm.

But today's phonograph has completely brought the atmosphere to its climax.

"What is this! What is this!"

The man's eyes widened. He patted Wen Zhen's shoulder vigorously, completely forgetting to keep his distance: "My dear, do you know what this is?"

"How come you can make a sound yourself?"

"I don't know!" Wen Zhen's shoulder was almost swollen from being hit. He shouted in a state of collapse, "I don't know. My father never told me."

His worldview has been completely turned upside down.

In everyone's cognition, only living things can actively make sounds.

Inanimate objects can only make sounds when a collision occurs.

But what kind of phonograph is this...

It can speak for itself!

"This is brewed..."

Qin Huaidao's face was filled with fear, and he shouted at the top of his lungs, "Monster!"

As soon as he finished shouting, Cheng Chuliang slapped him on the head: "Damn it, stop yelling."

"Yes, don't talk nonsense." Wen Zhen said helplessly: "The story club has already clarified all kinds of magical phenomena."

But Qin Huaidao was not the only one who thought it was a monster. Many people had red faces and strange eyes, like the man next to Wen Zhen.

"How scary! Monsters are so scary." He muttered to himself while raising his hand to sign up for a prize-winning quiz: "If I keep one at home...it would be too...scary!"

In a short while, the news that Nuzhuang had caught a morning glory demon spread throughout Chang'an.
