Ministers Begging Me to Ascend the Throne Chapter 999 - 85: The Nine Orifices of Prince Han (Part 3)

Boss Li chose not to show up himself, instead dispatching a skilled shopkeeper of his. This representative spoke with remarkable fluency, presenting the crowd with details on their exquisite fabrics and intricate embroidery.

Whenever he described a piece, models paraded through the area, enabling every viewer to admire the attire and needlework adorning their forms.

Combining the live demonstrations from the models with the shopkeeper's vivid explanations, spectators quickly grasped the qualities of the materials and craftsmanship featured.

Traders from distant lands and overseas nations observed this innovative presentation style and immediately recognized it as the brainchild of Prince Han. The owner of Li’s cloth shop could never have devised something so captivating on his own. Yet, regardless, they picked up a fresh technique for boosting profits that day, realizing how effectively textiles and embroidery could be exhibited in this manner.

Within moments, the gathered crowd absorbed knowledge about the offerings from Li’s cloth shop. Even though the contest was still ongoing, numerous attendees resolved to stop by the store once the gathering concluded.

From his seat among the viewers, Boss Li overheard the buzz of conversations praising his materials and designs, causing his grin to broaden immensely. The approach Prince Han used for this performance proved remarkably successful.

Such an intermission showcase served dual purposes: it gave the crowd a welcome pause while cleverly advertising their products, achieving impressive results with minimal effort. They pondered why this clever idea had eluded them earlier—only Prince Han possessed the brilliance to invent such a smart tactic.

Businesspeople from far-off areas and foreign realms believed they had witnessed enough of Prince Han’s commercial maneuvers, yet they were surprised by yet another “astonishing” innovation.

As Prince Han kept unveiling fresh approaches, these visitors lost any urge to depart. They yearned to linger in Swamp Prefecture for an extended period, eager to absorb additional novel and revolutionary profit-generating ideas from him.

Following a short interlude, the latter portion of the matchup resumed. Eager for victory, the Siam Royal Team launched into the phase with fierce energy, electrifying the onlookers who roared and applauded the competing sides.

Once the second segment wrapped up, Jin’s Jewelry, responsible for the awards, presented their sparkling pieces to the assembly. Mimicking Li’s cloth shop, they enlisted individuals to don the ornaments and parade them before the entire group.

Originally, this concept hadn’t crossed their minds, but inspired by the halftime exhibition from Li’s cloth shop, they opted to follow suit. The manager at Jin’s Jewelry directed his servants and maids to model the gems sequentially for all to see. Though the wearers’ appearances were ordinary, the pieces themselves dazzled with beauty, drawing every gaze.

Upon finishing their presentation, Jin’s Jewelry drew crowds alongside Li’s Cloth Shop. Both shops overflowed with eager buyers, their inventory flying off the shelves, which left Boss Li and Jin’s Jewelry manager beaming with delight.

Overseas nobles submitted numerous commissions to these vendors, including custom creations that commanded premium costs.

Participating in this trade fair proved immensely lucrative for Li’s Cloth Shop and Jin’s Jewelry, yielding profits far beyond their projections—several times the anticipated haul. They had arrived with tentative hopes, unprepared for such windfalls. In truth, they had underestimated these distant nations, viewing them as impoverished and no match for Great Zhou. They assumed foreign aristocrats paled beside Zhou’s elite clans, but actually, these nobles brimmed with riches and lavish spending habits. Above all, they showed keen fascination for Great Zhou’s creations.

The earnings from the fair surpassed their total sales over recent years. At last, they comprehended the rationale behind Prince Han’s trade fair and his invitation to international traders and dignitaries.

Prince Han excels not just in commerce with rare aptitude but also boasts visionary insight. At merely seventeen, he displays the wisdom and expertise of a septuagenarian; fortunately, they aligned with him. A figure like Prince Han demands alliance, not rivalry.

Having observed Zhao Yao’s techniques, they recoiled at the thought of clashing against him.

Through alliance with Prince Han, they reaped great rewards. Moving forward, they plan to deepen their ties and joint ventures with him. They’re convinced that sustained partnership with Prince Han will propel their enterprises into global markets.
