Chapter 256: This Forced Pretend Is Too Excessive(1/2)

As all the bottles of wine were auctioned, the entire auction came to a close.

The shopkeeper stepped forward and bowed three times to everyone.

"Thank you for your support to Wanbao Pavilion. At the same time, Wanbao Pavilion also thanks you for visiting our store despite your busy schedule.

Your Majesty's arrival has brought glory to our store. We have asked a painter to paint the entire grand scene of today and place it in the middle of our store.

Let every customer who comes to my Wanbao Pavilion to shop can see this scene today."

As he spoke, he showed the pictures to everyone, especially His Majesty at the top, which was highlighted.

"What I particularly yearn for is the Central Plains and the Tang Dynasty.

Today, this store is opened in Chang'an City, which is my lifelong wish.

This painting is also regarded as the treasure of our store. If your Majesty does not dislike it, I kindly ask your Majesty to put the title Wanbao Pavilion on this painting."

Li Er laughed again, waved his hand, and asked someone to bring the painting up.

I took a pen and ink and wrote the three characters "Wanbao Pavilion" in a cool and unrestrained manner.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you, Your Majesty."

Seeing their appearance, everyone cursed in their hearts, profiteers.

This beard and flattery can be said to be displayed vividly.

If this painting is hung up, wouldn't it tell the world that the current emperor is the backer of this shop?

Even if you don't have this intention, you can still use this name to pretend to be powerful.

If you want to touch them, you have to weigh the consequences.

Wanbao Pavilion's auction officially ended today, and they collected a lot of receipts of all kinds.

As the door was opened, Li Er stood up first and rushed down to the second floor. A carriage bound for the palace was already parked outside the door.

I got on the carriage and left here under the escort of a group of Jinwu guards.

Everyone shouted, "Bear your majesty off."

Immediately afterwards, the group of people in the store also began to leave the place one after another, rushing towards their respective homes.

With His Majesty's order, everyone felt a sense of relief.

On the way home, humming a little tune, even if he met the guards of the imperial city halfway, he was not afraid at all. He looked arrogant, and there was a suspicion that he was taking advantage of others.

Everyone returned home one after another, but the wives, children and children at home were worried about it and could not sleep for a long time.

There is a curfew in Chang'an City, and everyone must go back.

If you stay on the streets during Chang'an city's curfew with nothing to do, you will be imprisoned in a prison, or put to death in the worst case.

On the contrary, the heads of their families went out one by one and did not return home.

If you want to search outside, you can only do it tomorrow.

Who knew that everyone would be returning home one after another in the middle of the night?

While they were worried, they were also full of doubts. What was going on? What happened?

Logically speaking, the curfew has already been imposed in the middle of the night, and no one dares to travel casually on the street.

After hearing them tell the cause and effect of the incident, everyone showed distrust in their eyes.

You must not be dreaming. His Majesty paid for it and took them to an auction. The auction ended just now.

There were all kinds of things on display at the auction, and even a bunch of people like them wouldn't be able to buy any of them with the money they earn in their lifetime.

This sounds more and more fantasy-like.

It was not until the next day that what happened in Chang'an City last night began to spread among the crowd.

Only then did they believe that His Majesty had actually brought them, more than 100 people, in person, so that they could see the grand event inside.

Wine shop.

You don't know what happened on that day.

A new Wanbao Pavilion opened in Chang'an City, and we originally wanted to go there and join in the fun.

But if everyone wants to enter, they have to spend one tael of silver.

"What, one tael of silver?"

You're not bragging, are you? Everyone knows what one tael of silver is.

Bragging, I can brag to you about other things, but do I need to joke with you about this matter?

What I said is true, just one tael of silver.

"Hey, what can one tael of silver do? Do you still want to say that you also spent one tael of silver to get in and watch the auction?"

Ouch, it's strange, how do you know this? This is really amazing.

I haven't said anything yet. Have you guessed everything that happened?

That's right, we spent one tael of silver to go in and participate in that grand event.

The glass, weapons, and all kinds of things inside are dazzling to see.

Now that I think about it, I still remember it so deeply.

You keep bragging. Anyway, it doesn't cost money to brag and it's not illegal. Otherwise, these guarantees would make people imprisoned.

I knew you wouldn't believe it, and I'm not afraid of your envy. Do you know who paid us this money and brought us in?

Buy me a drink and I'll tell you.

The suspense is getting bigger and bigger.

"The waiter brought me a pot of wine. This pot of wine will be charged to my account. I want to hear what he can say."

"Hello, sir!"

"I'm telling you, it was the current Holy One who gave us the money to take us in to see it.

It was the first time in our lives that we saw His Majesty so close, and His Majesty even spoke to us."

Speaking of such an honor, everyone just felt like they were enjoying a great gift.

Bragging, bragging, and bragging, everyone laughed with disdain.

How could a big shot like His Majesty invite a group of them in to watch?

Don't be ashamed to brag.

"Hey, hey, don't believe it. His Majesty is gentle to others and is indeed a sage monarch.

We have such a good majesty, and our life will only become happier and happier."

The man received the gift from Li Er and was praising His Majesty.

Several other people said softly.

"It's still a happy day, I heard gossip from other people.

It is said that in several counties, the people there had to dig wells after finishing their work during the day without even having time to rest.

During the process of digging the well, a landslide occurred and several people were injured.

Some people say that His Majesty is compared to Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty."

But as soon as that person finished saying this, others around him stepped forward and covered his mouth.

"Hush boo your little sound, don't you want to die?

Remember, we are all brothers. We can just say these words in a low voice.

If someone with intentions hears it, be careful and you may lose your life."

On the contrary, this time the man who had seen the world shook his head.

"Let me tell you this, do you know what the consequences will be if there is a severe drought?

If there is a severe drought in the world, the people in the Central Plains can live without food, even if they chew bark and leaves, as long as they have government relief.

If there is a severe drought and we run out of water, and there is no water to drink by then, do you know how many people will die?

You must remember to take a long-term view.

Since His Majesty said that there will be a severe drought in the world in summer, he will definitely have a severe drought.

And the things we do today are just precautions.

Your Majesty is a king, do you think His Majesty would joke about something like this?

Besides, there are countless strange people and strangers around Your Majesty. It is said that some strange people have a knowledge of five thousand years and five thousand years.

It’s not difficult to calculate what the weather will be like half a year from now.

And the things your Majesty has done today are just to prevent us and other people from having a big disaster or a big problem."

His Majesty arranged for them to go to the auction site in person and participate in an auction.
