Chapter 124 Beer Festival Promotion 4
Lin Muqiu smiled slightly, "Would you like some?"
A few people in a trance: "..."
Can you please be serious?!
Could this be the legendary person with strength who doesn't need to bow to anyone?
While the others were still in a daze, Bri and Blitz stepped forward and explained their purpose. "Sir, on behalf of my family, I extend my sincere congratulations. I would like to sponsor you with 1,000 gold coins and unlimited beer. I only hope that you can explain to those around you that this is the finest beer provided by my family."
The others reacted immediately. Well, while they were still distracted, someone was trying to seize the opportunity!
Another elder stepped forward in a deep voice, unwilling to be outdone. "Sir, I am willing to sponsor you with 30 gold-grade weapons. I only ask that you mention the name of our Western Chamber of Commerce at the opening ceremony and place a sign in our honor."
The representative from the Northern Chamber of Commerce stepped forward with a smile. "Sir, as everyone knows, holding a festival requires not only financial resources but also material reserves. I'll take care of the down jackets your town's shops need. If you have any shortages during the beer festival, I'll promptly fill them for you. My only request is that my Chamber of Commerce's cotton jackets be sold at the beer festival."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present looked at that person with clear eyes: Don’t you see how hard it is to get a seat as a sponsor of the beer festival? How dare you, who is seeking both fame and profit?
But it is true that this chamber of commerce offers considerable profits.
So they looked at Lin Muqiu nervously.
Who will she choose to work with?
Lin Muqiu just smiled slightly.
Among the sponsors, some want to use money to exchange for fame, some want to use material sponsorship to gain publicity, and some want to seek fame and profit to establish a cooperative relationship. It is indeed difficult to choose.
but……
"Is there any possibility that I can cooperate with everyone?"
Everyone present: ???
When it comes to Aquaman, it has to be you!
The people from the Northern Chamber of Commerce were the first to express their dissatisfaction. "Sir, we have come all the way here, and what we want is exclusive sponsorship."
The other sponsors also nodded frantically.
"Turn left when you go out, I won't see you off." Lin Muqiu smiled lightly.
"You!" The servant's face turned red, but he didn't move a step.
Those who had supported him just now suddenly woke up. Yeah, why were they competing with him? The more sponsors, the better. What if they couldn't compete?
Seeing that everyone was silent, Lin Muqiu chuckled and said, "Okay, if you have no objection, let's discuss the details of the transaction."
Everyone: “…”
I have to have an opinion!

There are only seven days left until the food festival.
Melville washed his hair, touched the soft white bubbles that were rubbed out, and smelled the scent of fresh roses. The more he looked at it, the more he found the shampoo lovely.
The stuff from Ankang Town is so good! It’s so much better than the shampoo they make by mixing whole wheat bread, salt grains and animal fat!
This was a blessing from heaven. He was about to squeeze in a little more, but he forced himself to hold it back.
No, the shampoo is almost gone, he has to use it sparingly.
The goods from Ankang Town were like gifts from God, which shocked his heart. He could not bear it if they were taken away again.
He could accept poverty if he had never seen the light.
So after washing his hair, he found his mother and father and said, "Mom and Dad, after I used those gifts, I realized that there is such a God-given territory in the world."
"Such clean and beautiful things, such simple weapons, such delicious food and such useful planting methods, all of them moved my heart."
"If you're willing, why don't we settle down in Ankang Town? We still have two teleportation tickets."
He finished speaking in one breath, anxiously waiting for his parents' response.
Mother and father were so excited, "We've been waiting for you to say that!"
Melville: ???
He was completely confused. "Aren't you afraid that Ankang Town is deliberately spreading false propaganda to lure us into a trap?"
My parents were already packing their things quickly. "We are so poor, how can we afford to be cheated by others?"
Melville: ???
That makes a lot of sense.
Yes, if this is a big gamble, then he is willing to become the most avid gambler in the world.

There are still five days left before the food festival. Lin Muqiu and Kedeluo specially picked a day to go out to the streets to investigate and observe where to put various billboards and sponsorship signs.
The town was bustling with activity, with the number of settlers and tourists increasing exponentially, but with more people came more friction and arguments.
In the food district, two people are arguing.
"Hey, your stall has crossed the line!" The barbecue stall owner blushed and pushed the other stall back.
"I just overstepped the line a little bit. Can you please not be so stingy?" The owner of the sauce stall frowned and quickly held the stall. "You almost knocked my stall over!"
"Stingy?" The barbecue stall owner's eyes were as glaring as a bull. "Can you understand that it's you who didn't follow the rules?"
"Then please figure this out," the sauce vendor pounded the table furiously, emphasizing, "Your barbecue stall sends so much smoke and ash flying over here every day. This is against regulations. I didn't say anything, but I just took a little bit of your space, and you're so upset!"
"you!"
The two men were as strong as bulls, their hair standing on end with rage, and they wanted to start a fight right away. The others tried to dissuade them, but it was no use, and they did not dare to stop them rashly.
Then, someone whispered, "The Lord is here, stop fighting."
The two of them looked at Lin Muqiu.
Lin Muqiu had a blank expression on his face. "During the Food Festival, the fine for fighting is double the usual amount."
The two of them clenched their fists at the same time, their eyes red.
Lin Muqiu subconsciously held down his wand, his nerves tense.
The next second, the two men cried out for their parents and were about to kneel down, "My most sincere lord, you must make the decision for me!!!"
Lin Muqiu:???
Kedero's heart tightened.
In his opinion, the fact that these two people stopped attacking Lin Muqiu immediately upon seeing her undoubtedly showed that they trusted her immensely. If this matter was handled unfairly, it would damage public confidence.
He used to be troubled by this kind of thing and finally had to smooth things over.
He looked at Lin Muqiu and swallowed.
He was curious about how Lin Muqiu would solve this problem.
"It's not a big deal?" Lin Muqiu smiled, quickly took out the lord system and clicked the [Expansion] button.
The next second, the system's voice resounded throughout the city:
[Ankang Town has met the upgrade conditions and has reached 34,034 people!]
[Ankang Town has been upgraded to a second-tier city. Please pay attention to the changes in territory size and facilities, and check the new map!]
[Lord's Notice: All stalls can be expanded as long as sufficient stall fees are paid]
Both of them: ???
When did the Lord attract so many people to settle here?
Kedero: ???
Why are her ways of solving problems always so unique?
"Come to me if you have any questions." Lin Muqiu smiled slightly and turned away.
The two of them were disheveled in the wind, no longer arguing, leaving only sad tears.
The Lord has proven with his strength that problems cannot be solved because of lack of money. If he had money, would this be a problem?
The two looked at each other silently, and no longer had the urge to quarrel.
Instead of arguing, it’s better to grab the expansion spot quickly!

#Lin Muqiu brochures are spread all over the city (except your Majesty's city)
#The number of settlers in Ankang Town has increased dramatically in the past few nights, and it has been upgraded to a second-level town, with its power approaching that of the imperial capital.
#The four major chambers of commerce signed cooperation terms with Ankang Town, and the Ankang Town Beer Festival will be held in three days.
Louis' eyes were bloodshot as he read one page after another. Every time he read a page of the scroll presented by the sheriff, the bloodshot in his eyeballs swelled up three points, like an inflated ball that would explode in the next second.
When, exactly when, did this small, ant-like town become such a powerful entity?
Provocation, this is a naked provocation!
"Father." Louis Vuitton's face turned even paler. "Isn't this great? There's a town that can lead the continent to prosperity, and the other side has no desire to dominate..."
As soon as the word "heart" fell, Louis shattered the scroll. "What good are you talking about! They helped me deal with that bastard Louis. I thought they were pretty reasonable. I didn't expect them to be such a mad dog, daring to threaten the rule of the imperial capital!"
Louis Vuitton resisted with silence, "Father, it's unfair for you to think that way."
Ever since the prophecy about the mainland appeared, my father has been doing everything he can to strengthen his ruling power, even to the point of being pathological.
Even though his uncle Louis had diligently looked after the Imperial College for his father for many years, once something happened, his father only wanted to take the opportunity to suppress it and take power back into his own hands.
That's unfair.
"Forget it, what do you know?" Louis murmured to himself, caressing his youngest son's cheek. "Power is the best thing in the world. You'll know it in the future."
Louis Vuitton frowned and wanted to say something.
But he was interrupted by his father standing up and saying, "Come on, pack your bags. I'm going to inspect the major cities in the east."
Louis Vuitton stopped him suddenly, “Father, don’t do this!”
"Silly boy," Louis returned to his gentle and kind fatherly image in front of his son. "I just wanted to take the account book to check the taxes in Ankang Town. I didn't intend to do anything else."
"Really?" Louis Vuitton didn't believe it.
"Yeah, just a tax check." Louis chuckled.
He didn't believe that Ankang Town would upgrade so quickly and there would be no problem with taxation.

There is still one day left until Oktoberfest.
"Oh, I can't get through another day like this!"
Elena woke up from her sleep late at night, drooling with hunger.
I opened the cabinet and found it was empty.
Oh my god, where are her milk tea, strawberry mille-feuille, potato tarts, and spicy boneless chicken feet?
She was in a trance and never thought that so many gifts would be eaten up so quickly.
She was so hungry and greedy that even her dreams were filled with the smell of spicy grilled fish.
In the middle of the night, she suspected that she had gone crazy. She asked the servant to bring her a top-quality tender steak. She took only one bite and put it down with a sigh.
It doesn't taste like that.
She rubbed the plate with her knife and fork, her mouth watering.
When she thought of her original ambition that the initiative of whether to go to Ankang Town was in her own hands, she burst into tears.
It would be too embarrassing to go to Ankang Town to celebrate the beer festival now, so she decided to discuss it secretly with her sisters tomorrow.
Well, that's it, sleep.
So she lay in bed, unable to sleep all night because of her greed.
The next morning, she ran to her sisters' house with a lamp, but when she asked, she found that her sisters were not there.
When asked again, the housekeepers answered in unison, as if they had set a routine: "Miss Elena, my lady left a week ago. She said she was going to the beer festival. She also said that it was difficult to get a seat, so we had to go early."
"Dear Miss Elina, Ms. Stellan went to attend the Ankang Town Beer Festival last night. She left overnight. Hey, didn't she inform you?"
"Ms. Elena, my mistress Shirley is attending the beer festival."
“…”
Elena burst into tears.
They are really her good sisters. They ran away secretly without even calling her!
If she had known earlier, she should have gone straight away! Why would she stay hungry all night?
Seeing tears in her eyes, the housekeeper asked with a smile, "Eh? Miss, why are you still here? I thought even a delicate young lady couldn't stand this freezing cold night! Oh, you're a good person! Young people these days only know how to enjoy themselves. Almost one-fifth of the people in the town have run away to watch some beer festival. What's the point of this?"
In the ice and snow, Elena's eyes were filled with tears.
So everyone's enjoying themselves? She's the only one who's been kept in the dark, right?!
