Today is the day of the "Miracle" exhibition.
The whole city of Cairo became bustling since dawn.
In the streets and alleys, people in Cairo gathered in twos and threes, whispering about the "miracle" of His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh.
That is, the Hanging Gardens, the Pyramids and Stonehenge.
Everyone said that this was "a gift from His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh."
At this time, a farmer carrying a hoe stood on the street and said to his companions: "Have you heard? The "miracle" of His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh is about to be opened!"
"It is said that people like us may have the opportunity to go in and take a look!"
"I've seen the Hanging Gardens from afar. The water there looks like it's flowing down from the sky. It's like the place where the gods live."
The farmer's companion nodded, turned his head and lowered his voice: "Yes, that is the 'miracle' of the Holy Pharaoh, who wouldn't want to go in and take a look?"
Having said that, he turned his head and looked around, then almost put his lips close to the farmer's ear.
"I'll tell you something. I've saved up three hundred Deben copper coins. I'm going to go see the Pyramids."
Another companion beside the farmer rolled his eyes: "Why are you sneaking around like that? It's not something shameful."
"I borrowed 500 Deben copper coins from someone yesterday, and I plan to watch all of Saint Pharaoh's 'miracles'!"
"His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh has already set the price. A single 'miracle' is 200 Deben copper coins. If you want to see them all, it will be 500 Deben copper coins."
"If you calculate it all, you can save a hundred dollars!"
When the farmer heard this, he was just stunned: "Yes, five hundred is one hundred less than three two hundred. Why didn't I understand this account?"
"Then I have to scrape together five hundred to go and see it!"
The farmer and his two companions walked into a market as they talked.
In the market, a woman selling pottery jars greeted customers and said to the vendor next to her: "If I sell a few more pottery jars today, I will have enough copper coins worth 200 deben!"
"How are you doing? How much money have you saved?"
The vendor next to her chuckled and said, "I still have some left at home. If the Holy Pharaoh's 'miracle' is really open today, I will bring my whole family in to have a good look."
"Oh, by the way, let me tell you, the five hundred is much better than the two hundred. If you want to read all of them, you can save a hundred Deben copper coins!"
The woman just shook her head: "It's okay to save, but I still need to borrow another 300 of the 500 German copper coins."
"Moreover, I will be satisfied in this life if I can enter a 'miracle' bestowed by His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh."
Hearing this, the vendor just curled his lips and said, "Your Majesty the Holy Pharaoh, please show us mercy. We must seize this opportunity!"
"Who knows if there will be such an opportunity again in the future? You'd better be careful that you won't have the chance to see it again."
The woman was stunned for a moment when she heard this: "You are right! How about you lend me some?"
When the vendor heard this, he just tutted his mouth and said, "That's too much. I don't have any extra money to lend out. This money is all I saved recently."
On the other hand, in the temple, the priests' reaction was much more intense.
A young priest's face turned pale: "What exactly is the intention of His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh?"
"Those three sacred places were created by His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh. They are extremely holy. How can we allow those lowly peasants and foreigners to enter them casually?"
"Two hundred or five hundred Deben copper coins will get you in. This is simply blasphemy to His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh!"
His voice was loud and angry, and several young priests bowed their heads and echoed: "Yes, those people can't even step into the threshold of the temple, how can they desecrate the miracle?"
Another slightly older priest frowned and whispered, "But that was the will of the Holy Pharaoh, and the gods also obey the orders of His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh."
An older priest just shook his head and said, "Yes, if this is not the will of His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh, we will definitely do our best to dissuade him."
"Five hundred Deben copper coins can enter all the 'miracles', so what if I can save a hundred? How can the 'miracles' of His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh be measured with copper coins!"
Then, he paused, and his voice gradually lowered: "But..."
"If there is such an opportunity, I would like to go in and see the 'miracle' with my own eyes."
"For us, it is such an honor to be able to enter the 'miracle' of Saint Pharaoh."
When these words came out, the young priests looked at each other in bewilderment. A middle-aged priest even couldn't help but say, "The high priest is right."
"Although we are priests, we have never been inside. We can only watch from afar and recite prayers."
"If you can spend 500 German copper coins, then you can..."
This time, when talking about copper coins again, the priests just closed their eyes and continued to recite their prayers.
No one spoke out to refute it anymore.
On the other side of Cairo, an old man selling spices chatted with his customers: "I heard that His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh sent that kid Remheb to prepare for the exhibition?"
"He's a newcomer to Lord Kamul, and he's very efficient."
"I'm afraid this miracle exhibition will be more lively than the festival."
The customer nodded when he heard this: "Remheb? The trainee clerk?"
"I heard that Lord Kamul is very satisfied with him. This kid has a bright future!"
"I never thought that people as lowly as us could become successful!"
"By the way, I'll take all of these, but I won't be able to come get them until later this afternoon."
The old man just shook his head and laughed, "That guy used to work for me! My little shop can benefit from him!"
"My shop will be closed this afternoon! Perhaps you can come back another day to buy it?"
When the customer heard this, he also smiled: "Haha, OK, I understand."
"Then I'll buy it first and keep it, and come back to get it tomorrow!"
In Cairo, those people who had saved enough money were all smiling and looked excited.
As for those who failed to borrow money and saved enough money, they are working hard.
Meanwhile, in the palace of Holy Egypt, Remheb was waiting nervously.
Even the old prime minister Kamul beside him was breathing a little quickly at this moment.
They were waiting in the palace for Lin Ke to appear.
Because the exhibition will be started by Lin Ke himself.
They have done all the preparations as best they could, but this is the first time they have experienced something like this, so they are not sure about it.
At this moment, Lin Ke slowly walked out of the passage with two crowns.
"You two are here early."
“Is everything ready for the exhibition?”
Kamul and Remheb immediately bowed and said, "Reporting to His Majesty the Holy Pharaoh!"
"Everything has been arranged!"
