Chapter 42 The dim light

Why are there seven large crystal chandeliers? It’s very simple, I’m giving it to others! At that time, a total of 22 large crystal chandeliers were made, and 10 were given to the sea clan; the best one was given to the emperor, and the remaining one was given to Li Xian’s family, Yuan Zhao, Shangguan Yong and Zhang Quan’s family. In the end, there were only seven left.

But even if there are only seven left, after hanging out in a row, they are still dazzling, as if they have picked off the rainbow in the sky. The seven colorful lanterns are just seven colors left, and they are emitted with the brilliance of the rainbow.

The auction has not started yet, it is just a lantern party; all the lanterns brought by Li Xian are arranged in an orderly manner, allowing the industrial expo to soar into the sky.

Seeing this new colored lantern, many wealthy businessmen have begun to discuss purchasing, whether they are used by themselves or sold in a resale manner, they are all very good things.

"The colorful lanterns of the Brilliant Stars Store are good. They are both brilliant and well-made."

"Yes, yes, and the price is fair and just. I'm going to buy a few lanterns to take them back to the living room; it can be illuminated at night and can be used as works of art during the day."

“It’s just a little more expensive…”

"If you think it's expensive, you can use an ordinary jade lamp! It's expensive? Is this price expensive? It's very suitable! Look at the prisms made of glass, how pure and brilliant. This is a work of art, how can it be measured by money?"

Everyone was very enthusiastic about the discussion, only the people from the Wang family looked ugly; they didn't want to make a lot of calculations here, which was not as simple and effective as Li Xian! A textile machine tied the emperor firmly to Li Xian's chariot. As soon as the crystal chandelier came out, the Wang family's colorful lanterns became street stall goods.

To be precise, the Wang family did not know that what really made the emperor excited was not the textile machine, but the strategies mentioned by Li Xian, which was the most important one. But no matter what, the Wang family did fail this time, and it was completely defeated completely.

The children around them don’t care about these things. The children are playing happily among the lamps. Many children from the people’s families have never seen such a beautiful scene. There are also many girls wandering here, enjoying this short, colorful dream.

But the joyful atmosphere will inevitably lead to a little surprise, especially the crowded environment.

With a clamor, a meter-sized colored light fell, and broken glass fragments fell all over the ground. After a few tenacious flashes, the lights finally went out.

Needless to say, everyone's nature of watching the fun was immediately resurrected and watched.

"I just saw this colorful lantern. It is a very beautiful lotus shape, worth 58 taels of silver."

"That's so expensive, who can break this? How dare you make trouble at the Industrial Expo granted by His Majesty the Emperor?"

"Shh, Lee Hyun is here, it's lively."

A colorful lantern was suddenly knocked down, which naturally attracted Li Xian's attention. Everyone separated the road and allowed Li Xian to come unimpededly.

At first glance, Li Xian saw a child of eight or nine years old standing among the fragments in a daze and at a loss, his hands and feet were broken by broken glass pieces and his clothes were also a little damaged.

"Wow..." Seeing Li Xian coming, the child immediately cried.

Li Xian looked at a group of people watching the fun around him and squatted in front of the children, "It's okay, isn't it just a colorful lantern? Come on, let me see your injuries."

"Big brother, I...I...I...I'll compensate you..." The child sobbed.

"No, just treat the big brother to give you it. Come on, let me see your injuries first." Li Xian smiled gently. The little guy's clothes were very ordinary.

"No, big brother, I must compensate you. I...I... can I go to your workshop to do the work?" The little guy looked at Li Xian with pitiful eyes.

Li Xian looked at the little guy, thought for a while and finally spoke, "Okay, then you clean up the place first."

As he said that, Li Xian had already checked the little guy's body, but there was only a little bit of skin and flesh injury; he used his true energy to force out the glass fragments, and after the true energy flowed around, the blood stopped.

"Thank you, my name is Zhao Fei." After Xiao Zhao Fei said that, he went to the side to get the tools to clean it.

Seeing that Li Xian let this child go so casually, everyone was amazed and immediately gave him praise. "Young Master Li is a good example."

"Thank you, Mr. Li for being generous." A woman with a cloth skirt and wooden hairpin came to Li Xian a little timidly and bent down to thank him.

The simple clothes, the simple woman, who looks like she is eighteen or nineteen years old, is a bit ordinary and real under the bright night lights; while the bare face without makeup is also a bit sad and helpless.

For some reason, Li Xian suddenly thought of a word - love at first sight!

It is not certain to say that love at first sight, but Li Xian was indeed touched and happy in his heart, and moved! A voice sounded in his heart - a beautiful and elegant woman!

"No, this woman should be married." Li Xian suddenly felt a sense of loss. A wave of irritability that came from some unknown reason made Li Xian a little impatient. Suppressing this inexplicable anxiety, Li Xian turned around and left, "It's okay, it's just a child who is naughty. I have also done a lot of ridiculous things when I was a child."

As soon as Li Xian walked a few steps, he heard Zhao Fei's voice coming from behind, "Auntie, I don't want to go back, I want to play here. I just met many good friends."

"Auntie?" Li Xian suddenly felt overjoyed when he heard these two words. It was his aunt, not his mother.

As soon as the thought arose, Li Xian slowed down and raised his ear to listen to the conversation.

"No, Xiaofei, be good, how about we go home?"

"No, I don't! I'm going to work in my elder brother's workshop. I want to be a man, a man who stands tall. I broke my elder brother's lanterns and I want to compensate me. I don't want to be looked down upon!"

Li Xian immediately turned around, "Miss..., there are two days left in the exhibition, so let Xiaofei play here first."

The woman looked at Li Xian and her tone was still stable, "Then I'll trouble Mr. Li."

"No trouble, no trouble." Li Xian smiled like a little fox, "Zhao Fei, the crystal chandelier auction is about to begin. Let's go and watch the fun."

"Thank you, brother."

Seeing this, the woman could only frown and stay. After helping Zhao Fei clean the glass fragments, she took Zhao Fei to the open-air temporary place. Countless people had long gathered around the seven huge crystal chandeliers; when the wind blew, the crystal chandeliers rippled with a brilliant brilliance, and there was a burst of surprise whenever this was the time.

When Li Xian stood on the three-foot platform in the center, everyone understood that the auction was about to begin.

Li Xian bowed to the surroundings, "Thank you all for taking the time to come and support. Li Xian has been thinking about the lantern auction for a long time; this is a Chinese New Year, it's easier to have fun, I think it will be better.

This auction uses a dark bid, and the rules are: the minimum price is 50 taels of gold and the maximum price is 55 taels of gold. Everyone bids for each. Finally, an average value is calculated. Whoever bids closer to the average value will belong to the colored light.

Everyone said, how?"

"Okay! Mr. Li is righteous!" Li Xian's decision attracted cheers. Originally, everyone thought that this crystal chandelier would not be able to get a hundred taels of gold. There were only seven chandeliers, and the New Year was approaching. This thing was a good thing, no matter whether it was for home use or gifts.

Unexpectedly, Li Xian actually made such a move, which was indeed relaxed and pleasant.

"If you have money, you won't make money. Li Xian's brain is burned out!" Wang Ping, the eldest son of the Wang family, sneered.

The servant next to him immediately flattered: "Young Master is right, that's right. If this crystal chandelier is auctioned, it can be auctioned at least 100 taels of gold, or even two or three hundred taels of gold."
