On the stage, Yingzong, Empress Qian, Hu Wei, and Yang Chendong had just stood up, when four women in cheongsams walked out from the gate of Shenxianju.
They are the four daughters Yang Duo, Qiaoyin, Xueniangzi and Xiangniangzi.
The four of them all had the looks of a city, and they were dressed in decent and eye-catching exquisite cheongsams. As soon as they appeared on the stage, they attracted everyone's attention.
Like the four girls descending from heaven, each of them is holding a copper plate with a pair of scissors on it, which are props for cutting ribbons.
"Wow! So beautiful, what kind of clothes are they wearing? How can they set off their figures so perfectly?"
"Yes, if my concubine also wears this kind of clothes, can she be so beautiful?"
Faced with such discussions, someone in the crowd quickly gave an answer, "This dress is called a cheongsam, and the Tianwaitian trading firm next to Shenxianju already sells it, and even if there are finished products, they can also be customized. "
"Really? Our Daming also sells such things. That's great. I'll go to Tianwaitian later to have a look." After getting the answer, the expressions of some men in the crowd became much more excited.They are already imagining what their own wife will look like after wearing this beautiful cheongsam.And such voices of discussion and answers can be seen everywhere in the crowd, and the people in the Security Bureau have now become salesmen one by one, working hard for the future prosperity of Tianwaitian.
But at this time in the crowd, everyone's eyes have long been diverted, from the emperor's queen to the four girls of Qiaoyin.
The appearance of the four girls not only attracted the attention of the spectators, even Yingzong and Empress Qian who were standing on the podium looked at the four girls with great interest, but their eyes were more of appreciation.
Chapter 100 Immortals live in immortals
"Cough, it's time to start." I don't want everyone to pay too much attention to the four women. The three here are all my own women, and the other is my sister. He was not happy, so he urged the ribbon-cutting to begin.
On the second floor of the Immortal Residence, Xiaoqing chirped again, "Miss, the clothes on them are so beautiful, they are as beautiful as the one you brought back."
"En." Hu Yan answered absent-mindedly, but she was really thinking in her heart that if she was now Yang Chendong's person, she would definitely have her own place on the stage now.
At the urging of Yang Chendong, the ribbon-cutting began.Following Yingzong's four people each holding a pair of scissors, after cutting off the red silk connected in their hands, the staff of Shenxianju who had been arranged for a long time tore off the red silk covering the three big characters of Shenxianju. down.
Not only that, the Immortal Residence, which was originally a piece of red, suddenly changed at this moment, and all the red disappeared without a trace, replaced by bright and transparent glass that looked very strong.
It turns out that all the red silk is not covering the outside of Shenxianju, but placed inside as curtains. When all the red curtains are drawn from the inside, what is exposed is naturally the clean and transparent glass .
The current Daming only produces colored glaze, and the quality is not that good.Suddenly there were blocks of glass, there were still so many, and they all covered the Immortal Residence. It is conceivable how powerful the shock it will bring to everyone.
"Yang Aiqing, what is this?" Yingzong pointed at the transparent glass with a shocked expression on his face.
"Returning to the emperor, this object is called glass, which comes from overseas. Its properties are transparent, and it can be seen from the inside, and it can also be seen from the outside. When the light enters the room, it is much brighter, and in winter, the sunlight can shine into the room, making it very warm." Yang Chendong had expected this question a long time ago, and immediately answered simply.
"Okay, good stuff." Hearing how good this thing is, Yingzong couldn't help but sighed.
"It's a good thing, but the price is a bit too expensive. It costs 10,000+ taels of silver to buy the glass for decoration in Shenxianju. If the scale is larger, the cost will only be even higher." Yang Chendong was afraid that Yingzong would open his mouth like a lion and wanted to decorate the palace with glass, so he immediately explained the problem.
Sure enough, I heard that this thing is so expensive, just a fairy house cost 10,000+ taels of silver, if it is installed for the entire palace, tens of millions of taels may not be enough.He couldn't help but took a deep breath, then turned his head and said to Hu Wei who was beside him: "Hu Shangshu, go and urge the Ministry of Industry later to see if they can make such transparent glass."
"Minister Zunzhi." Although he is not the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, Hu Wei still thinks that the possibility of making it is too low.It's just that since the emperor has spoken, of course he has to agree first.
"Okay, Your Majesty, now please move into the hall of Shenxianju, where there are still programs waiting for the Emperor's personal review." Yang Chendong didn't want to waste too much time on the glass, so he asked the Emperor and Empress to move forward. enter.
"Okay." As soon as Yingzong heard that there was still a program, Yingzong ignored the matter in front of him, smiled and walked towards the Shenxianju with the glass door together with the queen.
When all the ministers were still curious about the effect of the glass and how it was produced, they saw the emperor entering the Immortal Residence, and they followed him one by one.And as soon as they entered the hall, the first thing they saw was the glass tower that made them gasp in amazement again.
It is wrong to say that it is a glass tower. To be precise, it should be a champagne tower.
There are five floors, divided into triangles, sharing 35 transparent champagne glasses, placed into a tower.There is only one glass at the top, and the number of glasses increases as you go down.
"Yang Aiqing, what is this?" Yingzong pointed to the transparent and exquisite glass tower with a curious expression on his face.I thought that I was the emperor, and the novelty things in the world have long been familiar with, but after I came to the Immortal Residence today, I just realized that there is indeed a sky beyond the sky.
"Your Majesty, this thing is called the Champagne Tower. It has five floors, implying that the Emperor is the king of the world. When you pour champagne from the top, the drink will go down from the first cup on the top floor." Flow until all the glasses are filled with champagne." Yang Chendong introduced in detail, which aroused Yingzong's eyes, and his curiosity was also aroused.
"Yang Aiqing, I don't know what to say about pouring the champagne you mentioned? I don't know if I can do what I want?" Yingzong asked playfully.
"Of course. Your Majesty is the Ninth Five-Year King in the world, and you should do this. Come, serve champagne." Yang Chendong laughed and waved to the side, and immediately there was a graceful waitress in a black cheongsam. He walked over and put several large champagne bottles in front of the Sixth Young Master.
Handing a bottle filled with champagne to Yingzong, Yang Chendong said respectfully: "Your Majesty, please."
"Ah!" It was just a curious question just now.He didn't expect Yang Chendong to agree so quickly.Now that he notices that the officials have entered the hall, it would be a joke if he accidentally poured the thing called champagne everywhere.
Yingzong hesitated, so he didn't take the champagne bottle right away.Yang Chendong who was on the side seemed to see the embarrassment of the emperor, and immediately smiled and said: "I dare you to ask the emperor, the empress and my humble ministers to do this together."
This is tantamount to sharing the risk. If something goes wrong, the fault can be pushed to Yang Chendong.After hearing this, Yingzong was overjoyed and said: "Today is a good day for the opening of Shenxianju. Naturally, everything is decided by Yang Aiqing, and I agree."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yang Chendong had a flattered expression, and then took two more champagne bottles. After each of the three took it, they stood in three directions, and then raised the bottle to the first glass on the champagne tower. down.
Following Yang Chendong's example, Yingzong and Empress Qian also lifted the champagne bottle and poured it into the champagne tower. The clean champagne flowed out for a while, producing a scent, and at the same time covered the entire champagne tower like a mountain stream.
The crystal clear champagne water flowed like a waterfall, covering every champagne glass and filling them up. This scene also attracted surprise and applause from the officials.
This champagne tower, Yang Chendong has done countless tests to ensure its safety, so whether it is the first time to use it upside down, there will be no problems.
At first, Yingzong was cautious when he poured champagne, but when he found that there was no problem, he became more courageous and poured champagne much faster. In the end, he was the first to finish it, which naturally attracted the crowd headed by Wang Zhen to shout Applause.
After the champagne in the hands of Queen Qian and Yang Chendong was also poured, the 25 glasses in the entire champagne tower were filled.Then the sixth young master asked the emperor to take the first cup from the top, then Empress Qian took the second cup, Yang Chendong took the third cup, and other courtiers also stepped forward, taking all 25 cups according to the size of their official positions do.
Even so, there are still ministers who did not get the champagne.But it's okay, Yang Chendong had been prepared for a long time, and waved to the distance, and a row of male and female service staff wearing black vests and black cheongsams walked up, each of them was holding something that looked like a silver plate. Topped with a full pour of champagne.
Soon, everyone was holding a glass of champagne. Seeing that the time had come, Yang Chendong raised his glass and said loudly: "For the prosperity and prosperity of Ming Dynasty, please drink this glass to the full, Your Majesty please."
"Please, all ministers together." Yingzong was in a good mood, and he raised the champagne in his hand while laughing.
"Your Majesty, please!" All the ministers also drank in unison with great dignity, and then poured the champagne in their hands into their mouths.
The entrance is sweet and refreshing, and the taste is very pleasant, which attracts everyone to have endless aftertaste after drinking it.
"Yes, this food tastes very good." Yingzong had eaten delicious food all over the world, and it was not easy to give such an evaluation after drinking champagne.
Of course, with Yingzong's evaluation, the future champagne may not sell well.
After the champagne celebration, Yang Chendong personally led the emperor and queen to the second floor of the Immortal Residence, and the other ministers of rank three and above followed behind and walked to the second floor under the guidance of the waiters and waiters.Naturally, those below the third rank can only stay on the first floor. Fortunately, no outsiders are entertained today, but these courtiers, the place is extremely spacious.The box hall can seat people casually.
On the second floor, Yang Chendong led Yingzong into the private room with the best view on the left. It has an area of [-] to [-] square meters, and there is also a separate bathroom. There are soft sofas and a wine cabinet in the room. There are tables and chairs placed and a bell tied by a rope.
Pointing to this bell, Yingzong asked curiously, "What is this for?"
"Back to the emperor, this is the bell. If you need anything, just pull it lightly, and service personnel will arrive soon." Yang Chendong smiled and stretched out his hand to pull it casually, and the crisp bell rang.
Soon thereafter, a plump waitress in a black cheongsam walked in. "Excuse me, sir, what do you need?"
"Tell Xue Niangzi, prepare for the song performance." Looking at the waitress who came in, Yang Chendong said with a smile on his face.
"Yes." After agreeing, the waitress with her little buttocks backed out, and Yingzong kept nodding while watching, "Yes, yes, this is a good way. Sir, I can also press such a button in my study." Things, it will be much more convenient when people need to serve them like this.”
Chapter 1 and One: Luxury and Extravagance
"Slave complies with the order." Wang Zhen, who followed and waited on the side, quickly agreed repeatedly.
On the other side, in the best private room on the right side of the second floor, Yang Chendong's eldest sister, Yang Fei, was chatting with Empress Qian on the soft sofa.
