I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory Chapter 47

At this ti, Lin Beifans concrete house was still selling rapidly.

Such a quick way of amassing wealth made everyone envious.

Particularly, the Emperors of various nations, upon seeing Lin Beifan amass over two million in wealth in less than half a month, were green with envy to the point of splitting hairs!

If that foolish emperor can do it, why cant I?

Thus, the Emperors of various nations all set their sights on Lin Beifans cent.

Take, for example, the Shang Kingdom.

It is said that this foolish emperor has invented a miraculous construction material called cent, which can be used to build large and sturdy houses in just a few days. He even sold the houses and made over two million taels of silver!

The Emperor of the Shang Kingdom lanted in court: Esteed Ministers, this cent is not only a miraculous construction material but also a treasure that benefits the nation and the people! Can we acquire the thod of producing this cent?

At this mont, the Pri Minister stepped forward with a bow and a smile, saying, Your Majesty, your humble servant has learned that the foolish emperor has created cent and built houses with it. I have already sent people to investigate, and now we have obtained the thod to produce cent!

Is that so?

The Emperor of the Shang Kingdoms eyes lit up, and he said eagerly, Minister, you are truly a pillar of our nation, addressing my urgent needs with loyalty. Quickly, present this thod for my review!

The Pri Minister handed over a piece of paper, smiling as he said, Your Majesty, the thod for producing cent is quite simple. It only requires iron slag, listone, and clay to be calcined and then mixed together in certain proportions to produce cent!

After the cent is made, it just needs to be mixed with sand, stones, and water to form a slurry, and then it can be used to construct houses! The speed of this construction is truly miraculous; a large and sturdy house can be built in just three days!

The Emperor of the Shang Kingdom burst into laughter, Excellent, excellent! With the thod for producing cent, why should our Shang Kingdom worry about not thriving? That little emperor is also muddle-headed and incompetent, not knowing to keep the thod of cent production secret, allowing us to obtain it so easily. I really should thank him! Soone, bring writing materials; I want to compose a letter to that foolish emperor to thank him for his contribution!

All the officials snickered secretly.

Their emperor was not really intending to thank Lin Beifan; it was clear he wanted to mock him!

They were all too happy to see this joke!

Monts later, the Emperor of the Shang Kingdom finished writing the letter and handed it to his attendant, laughing, Send this to the foolish emperor of the Xia Kingdom as quickly as possible and make sure to note his expression. Co back and report it to !

Yes, Your Majesty! The attendant took the letter and then withdrew.

Now that we have the thod to produce cent, lets build houses quickly to enrich the national treasury!

The Emperor of the Shang Kingdom said with a laugh. This is a matter of great importance, so I will entrust the Pri Minister with this task!

Yes, Your Majesty!

The Pri Minister took the decree and went to arrange the cent matters.

Six days later, a house was constructed out of cent, and upon seeing it, the Emperor of the Shang Kingdom was overjoyed: Good! Very good! Since building houses with cent is feasible, then Pri Minister, you should quickly build more houses and sell them to replenish the national treasury!

However, at this mont, the Pri Minister was troubled: Your Majesty, this this might be difficult

The Emperor of the Shang Kingdom frowned: Pri Minister, what is this hesitance? Speak your mind!

The Pri Minister clenched his teeth and said: Your Majesty, the idea of making money from cent houses is not going to work. We should think of another strategy.

The Emperor, with a frown and a hint of annoyance in his tone, said: Pri Minister, what do you an by that? Look at that foolish emperor who has already made more than two million taels of silver. Why cant we do the sa?

The Pri Minister replied with a wry smile: Your Majesty, it really wont work! If we really sell houses like he did, well end up losing everything, even our capital!

Then explain it to now! demanded the Emperor of the Shang Kingdom, barely containing his anger.

Yes, Your Majesty!

The Pri Minister bowed and said, To make cent, we must have three things: iron slag, listone, and clay! We have iron slag, and we have listone, but these two materials are very far from the city! To transport them to the city to build houses would require a great deal of manpower and resources!

Moreover, the production of cent also requires a large amount of firewood! Your humble servant has made a preliminary estimate; if we were to build such a house, the cost would reach 60 taels of silver, which is more expensive than a house built with green bricks and simply cannot be sold!

The Emperor of the Shang Kingdom was shocked: What! How can this be? Why can the Xia Kingdom do it?

Your Majesty, it is because the iron and listone mines of the Xia Kingdom are on the outskirts of their Capital City. They can use local materials, saving an untold amount of manpower and resources! Moreover, there is a coal mine nearby, and the coal extracted can be used directly for burning, saving even more on firewood! Thats why their houses can be sold so cheaply and still be profitable!

So thats how it is, how infuriating! The Emperor of the Shang Kingdom spat blood in anger.

To clearly grasp the thod of making money, yet unable to earn it, and to have to watch the enemy nation make a profit was truly too depressing!

Overwheld with frustration, it drove him to the brink of madness, to the point of wanting to commit murder!

At that mont, the attendant who had been sent to deliver a ssage to Lin Beifan returned.

Your Majesty, this is the reply from the Emperor of the Xia Kingdom for your perusal!

The Emperor of the Shang Kingdom opened it and saw only 14 Chinese characters: Imitating Dong Shis frown, overestimating oneself, laughable, laughable, Idiot!

The Emperor of the Shang Kingdom vomited out blood: Pfft!

(TLN: Imitating Dong Shis frown, imitating the frown of Dong Shi, without understanding that it was the beauty itself that made the expression charming, not the frown itself.)
