Chapter 179 How about Let Me Give It a Try
In order to save time and reduce everyone's fatigue, whenever they traveled, they basically used Gui Duanming. The next morning, the emperor prepared to go out with Wei Da, Tong Mingyan, Gu Xihao, and the father and son of the Duke of Zhenguo. The old lady and other female relatives chose to stay in Canghai City. Anyway, they would go back after the New Year here, so they still had plenty of time. They didn't want to join the emperor's fun. Gu Xixian had no objection to this, so the group of people who were going out got on Gui Duanming's back as if they were familiar with the way. The seemingly long journey was just a matter of taking off and landing for Gui Duanming. In less than a quarter of an hour, they landed on the top of the Pearl City Mountain. The sentries saw the behemoth in the sky from a distance, but no one was panicked, because they had seen Gui Duanming before, and according to Gui Duanming, there could be no creatures like it in this world. It was a unique existence.
Before landing, the emperor began to praise: "Anxi, which famous architect designed this city? The layout is really wonderful. Every step is a pavement, every step is a scene, it can be called a masterpiece of creation."
The famous Gu Xixian: "Your Majesty, Anxi is sorry for showing his ugliness."
The emperor's eyes widened, and after a long while he spoke, "Da Ling is blessed to have you!"
"Haha, since the elder has given me a compliment, I dare not refuse it. Anxi will accept it!" Gu Xixian felt that it was okay to accept a compliment.
The emperor nodded his head and said, "You, you..."
As he said this, he laughed: "What on earth is in your little head? You actually used a staircase to bring a mountain to life."
The Duke of Zhenguo was proud of it: "She is worthy of being my niece. She follows me."
Everyone: Can this gold be stuck like this?
The emperor refused: "Brother Yin, I will send you to guard the southern border when we return to the capital. With your thick skin, I think the bugs over there will be unable to do anything to you."
Then he said: "Hey, if you want to say who Anxi looks like, it should be me. Look at how smart he is. He is really better than his teacher."
Everyone: You two are both equally funny and have the same thick skin.
Tong Mingyan remained silent. Anyway, no one was as orthodox as him, hehe.
Orthodox Gu Liqi: What are you guys skewering? Don't think you can snatch someone's daughter just because you're close to her.
Gu Xixian smiled without saying anything and continued to walk slowly with his group. During the journey, they received constant positive reviews. Yin Xiao, who was observing quietly, even quietly reserved three shops from Gu Xixian.
By the time they reached the foot of the mountain, nearly two hours had passed. Before he could catch his breath, the emperor discovered something new: a building at the city gate was bustling with people.
"What's going on over there? Are they performing acrobatics? And a lion dance!" When the emperor arrived in the northern border, he let himself go and turned into a curious baby, always being the first to speak.
Gu Xixian thought about it in his mind, scratched his head and said with an awkward smile: "Today is the official day for Pearl City to invite investment. I forgot about that."
"Don't you, the city lord, need to be present?" The emperor was curious. Normally, when a business organizes an event, doesn't the owner have to be present in person?
Gu Xixian scratched his head and touched his nose again: "Uncle Bo seemed to have told me about this, but I forgot."
Everyone was speechless: It turns out that you have forgotten it.
"Hehe, how about we go over there now?" she asked tentatively, not knowing if it was too late. Uncle Po must be going crazy with worry, right?
"Let's go quickly. What are you waiting for?" The emperor pulled her and strode forward.
The people following behind said in a sidebar: Your Majesty, it's a bit unseemly for you to be so enthusiastic.
Gu Liepo, who had been waiting for a long time, wiped the sweat from his forehead when he saw the latecomer. He finally came, but didn't he bring too much? Your Majesty, what's the matter? Why are you so excited?
But he couldn't say that. He hurriedly smiled and said, "Master Murong, why are you here too?"
Emperor: "Is there a rule that says I can't come?"
Gulipo waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, it's a great honor for me to have you here!"
"That's what I told you, Anxi, where should we stand?" The emperor was very curious about the folk opening ceremony.
"Uncle Bo, take us in." The emperor's enthusiasm cannot be dampened, but the emperor's safety is more important. Although she is confident that no one dares to cause trouble here, she is still afraid of anything that might happen.
Gu Liepo led the group into the hall. What caught their eyes was the large pillar in the middle of the hall that took up one-third of the hall, and the stairs that spiraled up around the pillar. Gu Xixian was the first to walk up the stairs until he reached a large round platform surrounded by transparent glass. He pushed open the transparent door and walked in.
It was another novelty. This time, not only the emperor, but everyone else found it quite novel. They carefully circled around the transparent glass around it.
"You don't know until you see it. It's really shocking. Anxi, is this the third floor?" asked the emperor.
"Yes, Mr. Murong." Gu Xixian sat down at a round table in the center of the stage, picked up the documents on the table and quickly flipped through them. Although these plans were all from her, it's better to be cautious.
After flipping through it, she said to Gu Xihao, "Brother, you can also take a look and see if there is anything you need to add."
Gu Xihao went over as he was told, quickly flipped through it, then read it carefully again, shook his head and said, "It's well-organized, the benefits are clear, the details are in place, it's already perfect."
Listening to the conversation between the brother and sister, everyone returned to the table and sat down. Gu Xixian sighed, fortunately when the platform was built, a large enough area was reserved and the round table was large enough, otherwise it would not be so good today.
About two quarters of an hour later, the candidates entered the hall one after another, and the seats in the hall were gradually filled. Gu Xixian saw that the time was almost up, so Gu Liepo picked up a trumpet-shaped object on the table, walked to the glass wall facing the door and gently pushed it, revealing a round hole that fit the trumpet. He placed the trumpet there, then pinched the handle and pulled it back, and the long tube went directly into Gu Xixian's hand.
Gu Xi touched the hollow part of the handle and tested the sound: "Hey, hey, hey."
The people below suddenly became quiet and turned their heads to look around to see where the sound came from.
"Dear guests, dear friends, hello! Welcome to Zhuyu City for taking time out of your busy schedule. On this beautiful day, our Zhuyu City investment promotion ceremony officially begins. On behalf of all members of Zhuyu City, Anxi would like to express warm welcome and heartfelt thanks to all the friends who have come to today's investment promotion meeting!
Now, we would like to invite Mr. Gu Liebo, our host of today's shop leasing, to tell you about the leasing conditions and the rules and regulations of Zhuyu City that must be followed after leasing. Welcome everyone! "
There was applause, the atmosphere was very warm, Gu Liepo excitedly sat next to Gu Xixian and began to read from the script. After each paragraph, there was applause from the audience, which made the emperor eager to do something. He also wanted to do something. He thought that he worked so hard in the court, but no one applauded him. Those ministers were really not helpful.
"Anxi, Anxi, how about you let me try? I think I can say it better than Gulipo." The emperor whispered to Guxi.
Everyone: Your Majesty, your voice is not small at all. However, they also want to try it.
Gu Xixian nodded somewhat helplessly, and after another round of applause, he asked Gulipo to hand the microphone to the emperor.
