Ministers Begging Me to Ascend the Throne

Chapter 999: Chapter 85: The Nine Orifices of Prince Han (Part 3)

Boss Li did not appear in person, but he sent one of his shopkeepers. This shopkeeper was very eloquent, introducing the audience to their fabrics and embroidery.

As he introduced, models would walk around so that all the spectators could see the clothes and embroidery on him or her.

Through the model’s display and the shopkeeper’s introduction, the audience gained a better understanding of the fabrics and embroidery on the model.

The merchants from other regions and foreign countries saw this display method and instantly knew it was Prince Han’s idea. Boss Li from the cloth shop wouldn’t have thought of such a surprising method. However, that being said, they learned a new money-making method today by seeing that fabrics and embroidery could be showcased this way.

In just a short while, the onlookers learned about the fabrics and embroidery from Li’s cloth shop. Although the competition hadn’t ended, many people had already decided to visit Li’s cloth shop after the event.

Sitting in the audience, Boss Li heard people all around discussing his fabrics and embroidery, and his smile stretched widely. Prince Han’s method of staging the show was truly effective.

This kind of mid-show display not only allowed the audience a good rest but also efficiently promoted their own goods, truly killing two birds with one stone. They wondered why they hadn’t thought of it before, only Prince Han could come up with such an ingenious method.

The merchants from other regions and countries thought they had already seen plenty of Prince Han’s business tactics, and didn’t expect him to have more "stunning" methods.

With Prince Han constantly coming up with new strategies, they had no desire to leave anymore. They wished to stay in Swamp Prefecture longer, so they could learn more unprecedented and unheard-of ways to make money from Prince Han.

After a brief break, the second half of the competition continued. The Royal Team from Siam wanted to win, so the second half started intensely, thrilling the audience. They all shouted and cheered for the participating teams.

After the second half ended, Jin’s Jewelry, the prize provider, introduced their jewelry to everyone present. Just like Li’s cloth shop, they also invited people to wear their jewelry and showcase it to everyone there.

They hadn’t thought of this idea initially, but after seeing Li’s cloth shop’s mid-event display, they decided to do the same. Jin’s Jewelry’s shopkeeper had his attendants and handmaidens wear the jewelry and display it one by one to everyone present. Although the models’ looks were average, the jewelry itself was very beautiful, attracting all eyes.

After Jin’s Jewelry completed its display, many people went to both Li’s Cloth Shop and Jin’s Jewelry. These two stores were packed with customers, and the goods were quickly snatched up, making Boss Li and the shopkeeper of Jin’s Jewelry smile from ear to ear.

Foreign royals also placed many orders with these two establishments, even specially made items, which naturally came at a very high price.

This time attending the trade fair, Li’s Cloth Shop and Jin’s Jewelry made a substantial amount, several times more than they had expected. They initially came with a mindset of just giving it a try, not expecting to make such a huge profit. Frankly, they didn’t think much of these foreign countries, considering them poor and incomparable to the Great Zhou. They even thought foreign royals were far inferior to the families of the Great Zhou, but in reality, these royals were very wealthy and more than willing to spend. Most importantly, they were very interested in things from the Great Zhou.

The business they did during the trade fair exceeded the revenue from the past few years. They finally understood why Prince Han organized the trade fair and invited foreign merchants and royals to participate.

Prince Han is not only exceptionally talented in business but also has extraordinary foresight. Despite being only seventeen, he has the savvy and skills of someone seventy; thankfully, they chose to collaborate with Prince Han. Someone like Prince Han can only be partnered with, never opposed.

After witnessing Zhao Yao’s methods, they couldn’t imagine the outcome if they ever opposed him.

By cooperating with Prince Han, they’ve earned substantially. In the future, they will continue to curry favor with Prince Han and collaborate with him. They believe that as long as they keep working with Prince Han, their business will expand across foreign countries.
