Create a fantasy paradise starting from Conan

After all, being able to use a gourd is no different from Qiwawa.

After noticing Bai Mu muttering to himself for a few words and then quickly leaving, the Emperor couldn't help but ask:

"Miss Bai Lan, are you still there?"

[I'm here.]

Bai Lan opened a notepad document in the lower right corner of the computer and quickly typed this sentence.

"Great."

[Let's continue watching TV. Oh, it seems like it's time for dinner. Want some chips or shrimp crackers?]

"what is that?"

"Poor kid, he didn't even have any snacks."

Bai Lan chuckled and took out the snacks stored in the storage space, one bag for each person.

He took two more bottles of drinks and placed them aside.

[Snacks and drinks are the best choice when watching TV. Oh, and please have the two maids leave and close the door.]

"May I?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Tianzi realized that even if she spoke, no one else could hear her, and this was something only she could do.

Turning to look at the maid at the door who was still dazed, he hesitated for a moment and said softly:

"You go out first and tell the imperial kitchen that I have already had snacks and am not hungry."

"Yes, Emperor."

As the two maids turned and left, the door of the emperor's bedroom was closed again.

[By the way, do you need me to teach you how to use a computer?]

"Is that okay? Thank you so much, Miss Bai Lan."

[You are welcome.]

Chapter 126: Inviting the whole nation to have a meal together

At noon, in a private room of a hotel, Li Xingke was eating the lunch carefully prepared by the chef, but he felt that it tasted like chewing wax.

Thinking of the eunuchs' dismissive attitude towards the emperor during the morning court session, his brows furrowed even more.

It was clearly a very important court meeting, but the emperor only showed up occasionally.

Every time he appears, he doesn't say a word.

The eunuchs treated the emperor as a puppet, speaking jokingly and not caring at all.

He only regretted that he came from a humble background. Even though he had made many achievements and been promoted continuously in the past few years, it was of no avail in front of the eunuch group.

The only way is to continue to make achievements and get promoted, but... I don’t know if I still have that much time.

"Cough cough..."

Li Xingke covered his mouth with a handkerchief and coughed lightly a few times.

He looked down at the blood on the handkerchief, crumpled it up and put it in his pocket.

He picked up the chopsticks again and shifted his gaze to the plate.

Just as I was about to continue eating, I heard hurried footsteps outside the door, followed by a knock on the door.

"Please come in."

The next moment, the door of the hotel private room opened and a young woman in military uniform walked in quickly.

"Sir, something big has happened!"

"The eldest son of the Bai family has declared that he will treat everyone in the country to a meal together, and he is buying up rice, noodles, oil and other food items in large quantities."

"On the way here, I sent someone to inquire about it. He has contacted many food suppliers and news media, and has started signing contracts."

? ?

What is this all about?

Li Xingke was completely stunned and couldn't recover for a long time.

After calming down, his expression became extremely subtle.

He had heard of the eldest son of the Bai family and had seen him more than once. He looked very ordinary and had no outstanding qualities.

But he is somewhat clever and is definitely not a fool.

Invite people from all over the country to have dinner together?

The Flower-Growing Federation has a population of several billion. Even if each person only spends three to five hundred yuan, the total amount is an astronomical figure measured in trillions.

In addition to the travel expenses, we need manpower and material resources to ensure that the goods can be delivered to every household.

Even if the national treasury were to be emptied, this meal would not be affordable.

Even if the Bai family had accumulated money for a thousand years, they would still go bankrupt after treating everyone to this meal.

If he really treated me to a meal as he said, then he would be the biggest fool in the world and the biggest prodigal son in history.

And this is obviously impossible.

Therefore, he must have some ulterior motive behind this so-called dinner invitation.

Li Xingke's mind raced, thinking about the safety of the emperor and the situation in various places, and he soon came up with a guess.

"The Indian region seems to want independence?"

Of course, this was not a question to his subordinates, but a soliloquy.

"Conflicts frequently break out on all major borders, and local tax revenue has been decreasing year after year. The Kazakhstan region that General Bai is in charge of has a suitable climate, many plains, and is rich in various mineral resources."

Could it be that the Kazakhstan region also wants independence?

During these years, the eunuchs were only concerned with fighting for power and profit, and did not care about the development of taxation, finance, people's livelihood and other aspects, which led to the alienation between the local area and Luoyang.

If this continues, the Flower-Growing Federation will surely fall apart.

"I understand. I'll take care of this matter."

"Sir, are you going to stop this?"

"I will go talk to him. If he really just wants to treat the entire nation to a meal, then I naturally cannot and have no reason to stop him."

Of course, this possibility is so small that it can be ignored.

......

At this moment, the Bai Mansion was already in chaos.

"Master, have you gone insane? Why is this happening?"

"It's over! Our family is completely finished now."

"What does the master say? Even if the master is guarding the border and can't come back for a while, he will definitely call to stop the young master, right?"

"Why didn't you call? The phone at the main house has been ringing non-stop, but the young master just doesn't answer."

"Where's Butler Changzhi? Why doesn't he take care of the young master?"

Looking at the worried maids around her, Tifa, who was on the third day of training, also became worried and unconsciously put down the sword in her hand.

"Sister Shinano, what do you think?"

"I support all the decisions made by the Commander. If the Commander has decided to do so, there must be a legitimate reason."

"..."

You asked the wrong person.

Tifa was somewhat speechless.

"I think this is a very important thing. We all live here together. If we don't have money to eat, it will be terrible."

There are not just one or two people in this family, but more than two hundred people.

Even if you want to work to make a living, it is not an easy thing.

"I think that for you, practicing swordsmanship is the most important thing."

As he spoke, Shinano picked up the sword and threw it casually. The sword flew up and landed steadily in the scabbard on the wooden rack on the side.

"However, since you are concerned, go ask the commander."

"Huh...? Do you know where Brother Mu is?"

"Of course, the bond between me and the Commander can only be completely severed by death."

Although I don't quite understand what it means, I think it means that you can find the other party no matter where you go.

Tifa quickly put down her sword and followed Shinano, walking quickly towards the front hall.

When they heard that the two were going to look for Bai Mu, a lot of people rushed forward to sign up. Soon, an old housekeeper won the position based on his seniority and won the right to drive the two.

Sitting in the car on the way to find Baimu, Tifa hesitated for a moment as she saw the old butler looking depressed and crying silently. She then asked softly:

"Grandpa, are you crying?"

"No, I was just blinded by the wind and sand."

The old butler choked up, but the sadness in his heart really made him want to find someone to talk to.

"You two ladies are not outsiders, so I will be frank. Please persuade the young master to give up. Although our Bai family is very rich, we can't come up with that much money even if we sell all our land and mansions."

"The Flower-Growing Federation has a population of over three billion. Treating the entire nation to a meal is simply unrealistic. Even the emperor wouldn't be able to come up with that much money."

"Wow... Young Master used to be very sensible and obedient. He even became the top scorer in the imperial examination at a young age and became a high-ranking official. How could he suddenly become like this?"

"Even the most useless loser wouldn't do something so foolish."

Listening to the old butler's chatter and seeing the tears in his eyes, Tifa felt inexplicably distressed.

Brother Mu is too much!

Although it would be great to invite the whole country to dinner together, it is too expensive.

Even though I had never left the village before, I knew that if I wanted to treat the entire village to a meal, it would take more than our family savings to cover the cost.

"Let me drive. You're driving slower and slower." Shinano took the initiative.

Although I didn't quite understand why he was crying, his tears blocked his vision, causing the car to move at an absurdly slow speed, even slower than the pedestrians walking on the side of the road.

"I'm sorry, but can Miss Shinano drive?"

"of course."

After the two got off the car, they exchanged seats.

After Shinano took over as the driver, the car continued to speed up, moving smoothly along the road and soon arriving in front of a large hotel.

At this moment, two people were standing at the hotel entrance, and a banner reading "The whole place is reserved today, no admission" was hung on the door.

Noticing Shinano with fox ears and nine tails, the two people at the door showed a hint of obsession in their eyes, but they quickly reacted and hurriedly stopped her.

"Please stop! This place is reserved by the eldest son of the Bai family today."

"I'm Bai Changzhi, the Bai family's housekeeper. Is the young master in there?"

"It's Mr. Bai, please come in! The eldest son is signing an agreement with the grain merchant in the second-floor hall."

The moment the elevator door opened, the dazzling golden light almost blinded the three people.

When he came to his senses, he quickly saw mountains of gold in the hall and piles of banknotes in the corner.

The shock from the money made Tifa look dazed, and she stood at the elevator entrance, unable to move at all.

She has been in this world for three days and has some knowledge of the currency here.

Because she felt that she had done nothing, she was embarrassed to spend money during these three days and tried to save as much as possible.

At this moment, besides being shocked, I was also inexplicably angry.

When I came to my senses, I had already walked up quickly.
