Chapter 194.2
Soon after, Elder Qian Yuan of the Beggar Sect arrived.
Your Majesty, what are your commands? Elder Qian was very excited, as he had not left Great Xia since his arrival.
He believed in seizing the opportunity to shine by staying close to the Emperor.
Now, his chance had finally come. Blessings from the heavens!
Elder Qian, youve come! Lin Beifan said with a smile, I have a very important task for you!
Upon hearing this, Elder Qian became even more excited!
Important tasks were good!
The more important the task, the more generous the reward upon completion!
Please give your orders, Your Majesty. I am willing to go through fire and water! Elder Qian declared loudly.
Its not that serious! You just need to use the power of the Beggar Sect to do something in Great Luo! Arent they planning a big production? Call our brothers from the Beggar Sect to go there and lend Great Luo a helping hand
Elder Qian nodded and immediately set into action.
Beggars from Great Luo and those from neighboring kingdoms responded to the call.
The Great Luo Dynasty is starting a big production. Theyre not only providing food but also paying wages, lets go!!!
Wow, isnt that just like the Great Xia Dynasty?
Its the same, are you going?
Werent we originally planning to go to Great Xia?
Of course we were going to Great Xia! But the word is we can go to Great Luo first, and if it doesnt work out, then we can head to Great Xia!
Thats okay too. Lets head to Great Luo first!
And so, a million beggars swarmed towards Great Luo.
Inside the Great Luo imperial palace, an old minister hurried in, Your Majesty, theres trouble!
What are you so panicked? The Great Luo Emperor asked with a composed expression.
Your Majesty, ever since the recruitment edict was issued, over a million beggars have crossed the border, attracted by our reputation. They are now gathering outside the imperial city, but we dont have enough job positions to offer them!
This is excellent news! The Great Luo Emperor laughed heartily.
Excellent news? The old minister was taken aback.
What does this mean? It means that our actions have won the peoples hearts, which is why they have come in response to our call. This is the greatest support for Great Luo! So, do not turn them away; accept them all! The Great Luo Emperor declared with a grand gesture.
So, the edict to sell the houses was posted.
Each concrete house was priced at 35 silver taels, one per person, first come first served.
If one didnt have enough money, installment payments were an option.
In short, it was just like what Great Xia had done.
Another day had passed.
The Great Luo Emperor inquired, How are the sales of the concrete houses?
Report to Your Majesty, there have been no sales yet, please forgive me!
The Great Luo Emperor reassured, This situation is quite normal. What crime have you committed? When the Great Xia first started selling concrete houses, they also didnt sell a single one on the first day! This is because the common people have worked hard to earn their money and are reluctant to spend it, preferring to wait and see. Therefore, you must not be arrogant or impatient and patiently wait for it!
Thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty!
Another day went by.
The Great Luo Emperor asked again, How are the sales of the concrete houses?
Report to Your Majesty, there are still no sales, please forgive me!
The Great Luo Emperor reassured him once more, This situation is quite normal, and I will not blame you! After all, even the cheapest house costs several dozen taels. The common people need a few days to adjust. Give them a little more time!
Thank you for Your Majestys understanding!
The third day passed, and still not a single house was sold.
However, the Great Luo Emperor remained calm.
The fourth day passed with still no sales.
The Great Luo Emperor was still as calm as ever.
On the fifth and sixth days, no houses were sold, yet the national treasurys silver was rapidly depleting.
Finally, the Great Luo Emperor could no longer remain calm!
