I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory Chapter 80.1

The chefs had made a na for themselves at the culinary conference, and with the rewards from Lin Beifan, they had both fa and fortune. Naturally, they considered expanding their businesses.

Consequently, nurous gourt shops sprouted up like bamboo shoots after a rain.

This is the rice noodle roll nadnad by His Majesty himself, co and have a taste!

Here we have chicken wing dumplings, with rice wrapped in chicken wings~ so delicious!

And theres this golden siu mai, I love it!

Business bood with a broad and abundant source of wealth flowing in.

After all, these were delicacies that had made it into the grand food festival, delicacies that His Majesty himself had approved!

So of these gourt dishes had even been graced with nas bestowed by His Majesty!

Who wouldnt want to try sothing that even the Emperor had endorsed?

As a result, business naturally picked up speed, and long lines ford in front of many shops.

Many onlookers were envious; this was clearly a visible and attractive road to riches!

As long as one could make it into the grand food festival and gain the Emperors approval, they could open their doors for business and make a fortune.

If one performs even better, they might gain His Majestys favor and be summoned to the palace to take up an official post.

Everyone secretly made up their mind, rubbing their hands in anticipation, determined to participate in next years gourt festival!

The food shops gathered a huge amount of popularity, with people coming and going every day in search of delicacies. After eating at one place, they would try another and then casually stroll through the streets, enlivening the entire market with a festive atmosphere, bustling and full of life.

Your Majesty, the chefs who made a na for themselves at the gourt festival have, without prior agreent, set up shops on North Capital Street, creating a food street that has attracted a large crowd! Now, North Capital Street is bustling and thriving with noise and excitent!

This was no small achievent, and the opportunistic and enterprising Governor of the capital city imdiately sought to claim credit from Lin Beifan.

Lin Beifans face lit up with great pleasure: Minister, you have done very well, I am extrely satisfied! When is the food street most lively? I will make ti to join in the fun and share the joy with the people!

The Governor of the capital city hastily said, Your Majesty, the city is most lively during the hour of You () (17:00~19:00)!

The hour of You, that seems to be when everyone finishes work and heads ho!

Your Majesty is absolutely right!

The Governor of the capital city said with a smile: Thats precisely when the common people finish their work, go ho, and have dinner! However, the streets beco less crowded once the curfew begins.

Lin Beifan waved his hand grandly: This is too rushed. Lets just lift the curfew so that everyone can also enjoy themselves and do business at night!

The Governor of the capital city was shocked: Lift the curfew? This could lead to security issues, Your Majesty, please reconsider!

History has proven that trouble is more likely to occur at night, especially when there are crowds.

Particularly in this martial arts world, many people possess martial arts skills, and once they start drinking and go crazy, they are unstoppable.

Therefore, many countries, for the sake of convenient managent, often take a one-size-fits-all approach and implent curfews.

At night, if you are still wandering the streets, at the very least you might be persuaded to go back ho, and at the worst, you could be thrown into jail for a few days.

Lin Beifan smiled calmly and said, Indeed, there could be problems at night, but why not just hire more people to maintain public order? By doing so, we can also solve so employnt issuesits a win-win situation!

The Governor of the capital city beca anxious; this sounded really good.

But if sothing went wrong, it would be a big deal!

This is right under the Emperors nose; if a major incident occurs, it would be the responsibility of him, the gGovernor of the capital city!

You cant run away from it!

Adhering to the principle that less is more, the Governor of the capital city spoke up, Your Majesty

Say no more, lets happily decide this!

Lin Beifan clapped his hands and declared, The curfew is lifted, allowing everyone to do business, to go out and stroll, but public order must not be disturbed! You are in charge of the details. Do well and there will be generous rewards, fail and youll have to see to the consequences!

Yes, Your Majesty! The face of the Governor of the capital city contorted into a bitter gourd.

This was indeed a troubleso and thankless task!

But since the Emperor had decreed it, he had no choice but to pinch his nose and accept it.

Thus, the curfew in the capital city was lifted.

The number of people coming out to stroll the streets at night increased, business improved, and the capital city beca even more bustling and lively.

This scene filled many Emperors from neighboring kingdoms with envy.

This foolish emperor, with all his haphazard efforts, has actually revitalized the market and improved the economy!

If the foolish emperor can do it, theres no reason why I cant!

I will definitely do better than him!

And so, many Emperors began to follow suit.

In the An Kingdom, the Emperor expressed with great enthusiasm in the court, I wish to emulate the Great Xia Emperor by holding a grand culinary festival to stimulate the market and revitalize the economy! What say you, my ministers?

Your Majesty, this must not be done! the officials protested in alarm.

Puzzled, the An Kingdom Emperor asked, Why not?

The Pri Minister was the first to stand up and say, Your Majesty, your humble servant has learned that the Great Xia Emperors culinary festival was mainly to satisfy the appetite. For this, he spent over a hundred thousand taels of silver, which is too burdenso and costly for the people! Our treasury is limited, and we should spend on more important matters. Please reconsider your command!

The An Kingdom Emperor argued, But if the economy improves, our national treasurys inco will also increase!

The Minister of Revenue stepped forward and said, Your Majesty, while it is true that an improved economy would increase the national treasurys inco, our inco mainly cos from agricultural taxes, court monopolies, and so on. The portion from comrcial taxes is very small! Therefore, even with an improved economy, the increase in inco would be limited. It might be better not to proceed with the festival.

An Kingdom Emperor continued to argue, Nothing is absolute, we must always try. What if it succeeds?

Another veteran minister stood up and said, Your Majesty, as your humble servant understands, the Great Xia Emperor not only hosted a grand food festival but also lifted the curfew, which is why such an effect was achieved! The real key lies in lifting the curfew! However, once the curfew is lifted, the consequences that will arise are well known to all, without the need for your servant to elaborate.

At this point, other officials began to speak up.

Your Majesty, we really cannot set this precedent! Once you get used to indulging in pleasure, theres no turning back!

Your Majesty, he is a foolish emperor, you must not follow in his footsteps!

Otherwise, you will bear an eternal stigma!

Finally, the officials unanimously pleaded, We beseech Your Majesty to reconsider and rescind the order!

The Emperor of An Kingdom was both angry and helpless. He just wanted to do sothing; why was it so difficult?

Yet, he couldnt dismiss all the officials and enforce the policy.

After all, the state still needed its officials.

Without the support of these officials, his position as Emperor would be unstable.

Moreover, their influence was deeply entrenched and complexly intertwined; with his power alone, he couldnt possibly eradicate them.

At this mont, he envied Lin Beifan imnsely.

Do whatever you want, without any hesitation, without any prohibitions, the entire court is dominated by his sole decree.

The entire nation abides by his wordthats what it looks like to be an Emperor.

Of course, there are still so bold Emperors who forcefully implent such policies.

Take, for example, the Peng Kingdom.

They held a grand culinary festival, gathering fine wines and delicacies from all over.

However, they were too stingythe entire budget for the festival was less than 20,000 taels of silver, which was quite ager.

Moreover, the rewards offered were too little, lacking appeal.

In the end, they couldnt even muster up 100 dishes.

After the gourt festival ended, they finally managed to get the food street up and running.

However, to everyones surprise, the business was very poor, with very few custors.

Even after the curfew was lifted, the situation remained the sa.

The other Emperors also ended up with a sloppy finish, becoming a joke.

Everyone couldnt understand it; they all held a gourt festival, so why could the foolish Emperor make it work, but they couldnt?

Upon hearing this, Lin Beifan secretly smiled.

This is purely an example of imitating Dong Shis frown; without solving the fundantal issues, that approach is futile.

To stimulate the market and revitalize the economy through a gourt food festival, you first need to ensure that the common people have money. Without money, the public cannot consu, and whatever you do will be in vain.

At this mont, a voice echoed in Lin Beifans mind.

Ding! Due to the increase in strength of the Great Xia Kingdom, the players power has been synchronously enhanced, awarding the Mysterious Sword Technique!

The Mysterious Sword Technique was created by a Sword God, comprising a total of 10 moves: One Sword to Fa, Unfathomably Mysterious, Renowned for a Mont

A set of incredibly profound sword techniques rged into Lin Beifans mind.

Another reward for swordsmanship, they really want to cultivate into a sword immortal! Lin Beifan laughed.

He opened Empire Sandbox and saw that An Lushans recruitnt had ended, with the total military strength increasing to 800,000, thereby boosting his national power as well.

This Emperor likes those with ambition the most, keep up the good work! The harder you work, the stronger I beco!

Lin Beifan smiled slyly, his mind evidently brewing so plans.

We are currently recruiting. CN/KR/JP Translators/MTLers are welco!
