In recent days, the streets and alleys of Xianyang City are filled with an exciting and lively atmosphere.

Regardless of gender, age or status, everyone in the city had an expression of excitement on their faces without exception.

This lively scene was not ignited by the approaching New Year, but was actually caused by a piece of important news published in the Xianyang Daily that was enough to shock the entire Tang Dynasty - the steam engine was successfully developed!

Plus, it coincided with the Chinese New Year, so how could the people bear it?

When they first heard the news, all the relatives of the craftsmen ignored the looks of others and rushed into the busy streets like crazy, hugging every passerby with the warmest and most sincere embraces.

It seems that only in this way can the overflowing joy and pride in the depths of my heart be fully expressed.

They have a craftsman in their family! They invented the steam engine! They are not useless.

Even the old guys who usually stay in the sanatorium for Tang Dynasty heroes could not contain their excitement.

I couldn't help but walk out of the quiet courtyard, blend into this sea of ​​​​joy, and immerse myself in this joyous atmosphere of celebration shared by the whole world.

Although they don't understand it either.

What exactly is this steam engine?

But when people get old, they like to be lively.

How could I bear the scene outside?

No matter what he is celebrating, just celebrate first!

After Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde finished the literacy class, they basically never came back and spent every day getting massages in foot bath shops.

The restaurants throughout Xianyang City have presented an unprecedented grand scene in the past few days.

From early morning till late at night, the store is bustling with people and every seat is occupied.

Even those wealthy businessmen who spend money like water on a daily basis.

Now, facing the restaurant full of guests, he could only sigh and look at the "seats". Even though he had a fortune, he was unable to book even a small seat at this moment.

Li Shimin held the newspaper reporting on the steam engine and read it carefully over and over again.

His deep eyes were now filled with a complex expression of confusion and amazement.

He racked his brains to figure out this so-called steam engine, but he still couldn't understand what kind of magical creation this seemingly ordinary object was and why it had such incredible power?

It is enough to realize the grand blueprint of ensuring that all the people of the Tang Dynasty have warm cotton clothes to cover their bodies and have a full stomach for every meal in the future.

The more he thought about it, the stronger his desire to see the real appearance of the steam engine became.

However, as the former leader of the Tang Dynasty, he would feel extremely embarrassed if he had to trouble his son for this matter.

Fortunately, he held the card that symbolized privilege - the Black Gold Order.

Li Er was very clear about whose words carried the most weight and had the final say in Xianyang City.

It was obvious that Wen Ruchu could not cause any waves in Xianyang City, and his words could not be said to have any influence.

The only one who can really call the shots in Xianyang City is the fat man.

Li Shimin, holding the token, strode towards the headquarters of Qianyu Chamber of Commerce.

……

Fatty Lin has been so busy these days that he is dizzy and overwhelmed.

The transportation of the huge amount of money seized from the house raid lasted for half a year, but there was still no end in sight.

The wealth of the aristocratic family is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Even someone like Lin Pangzi who is well versed in the way of wealth cannot help but feel a little frightened when facing this mountain of wealth.

His treasure house, which was originally extremely spacious, was now filled to the brim with all kinds of rare treasures, and it was difficult to find even a sliver of space.

In desperation, he could only hastily give orders to build a new treasury to accommodate these endless treasures.

But even so, he still couldn't feel at ease leaving these extremely precious things outside.

Those exquisite cultural relics, calligraphy and paintings alone were enough to fill his huge bedroom into a small hill.

Sometimes, wealth that is beyond imagination can become a sweet burden. Looking at the room full of treasures, the stingy fat man was filled with sorrow and could not stop sighing.

"President, President!" A young employee of the Chamber of Commerce looked panicked and ran over hurriedly.

"What are you doing! Slow down! You're so clumsy!"

The fat man frowned and shouted loudly.

"If you step on something and break it, you'll have to work for me for the rest of your life!"

"His Majesty will be arriving in an hour. Is everything ready for the welcoming ceremony?"

The stingy fat man asked anxiously.

Lin Kai nodded vigorously and said, "President, everything has been arranged! It's of the highest standard! However, a distinguished guest is coming to see you!"

"President!"

Hearing the word "distinguished guest", the stingy fat man subconsciously curled his lips and said nonchalantly: "What distinguished guest? Apart from Your Majesty, I don't have any distinguished guests here. If that Qi dares to come, I will definitely beat him out!"

At this point, he suddenly seemed to remember something and quickly added, "Oh, right, if His Majesty comes, that Qi guy will definitely follow. Keep a close eye on the Chamber of Commerce and don't let him in!"

As the stingy fat man spoke, he shook his fat head proudly.

"I understand, President! But the distinguished guest below is holding the Black Gold Token!"

When he heard the three words "Black Gold Order", Fatty Lin was stunned for a moment and was completely confused.

He knew better than anyone the privileges of the Black Gold Order in Xianyang City. The holder of the order could buy whatever he wanted, and all expenses would be paid for by the Qianyu Chamber of Commerce.

His Majesty had already told him solemnly that his Black Gold Order was given to his father.

In this case, then your Majesty's Aye...

Thinking of this, the stingy fat man suddenly raised his hand and gave Lin Kai a hard slap, shouting in frustration: "Why didn't you tell me earlier!"

"How could we let our uncle wait downstairs in vain! Hurry! Prepare an apology, an apology! I remember that my uncle likes calligraphy and paintings. Hurry and bring down two boxes of the most precious calligraphy and paintings. Be quick!"

"I'll go down and receive you personally right now. If you don't hurry up, I'll dock your salary. I tell you!"

After saying this, the fat man was extremely anxious. He completely ignored his fat body and his former dignity, and crawled downstairs.

As the holder of the Black Gold Order, this was the first time Li Shimin stepped into the Qianyu Chamber of Commerce after arriving in Xianyang.

As the most supreme and distinguished member of the Chamber of Commerce, the luxuriously decorated suite on the first floor of the hall has been opened exclusively for him.
