A few days passed, and the hustle and bustle outside Cairo not only did not subside, but became even more lively.
Every morning, when the city gates opened, people from all over Holy Egypt flocked in, holding pottery shards in their hands, vying to see the magnificence of the three wonders.
They walked hurriedly, their faces full of anticipation. The city of Cairo is now bustling with activity every day.
A young man squeezed in the line, holding a white film in his hand, and excitedly said to his companion next to him: "Yesterday I saved up two hundred Deben copper coins to go to see the [Hanging Gardens]. You didn't see how magnificent that place is!"
"I plan to go to Stonehenge today."
Hearing this, his companion waved an orange slice and patted his chest proudly: "Yesterday I spent 500 German copper coins and exchanged it for a big orange slice. Today I can see that I can get a small one."
"We'll have to wait until tomorrow to see the last one."
Every day, people in Cairo never tire of bragging about which "miracle" they had visited, which makes those who have not been there feel itchy.
For a time, everyone in Cairo was discussing the three wonders, and some people even went to see them twice or even three times.
That is to say, I visited it many times.
The income figures that Kamul reported to Lin Ke every night were also rising steadily.
From 3,800 German silver coins on the first day to 5,000 or even 6,000 German silver coins today.
After hearing this, Lin Ke just nodded slightly and gave part of the money he earned to Kamul and his men.
The news of the opening of the "miracle" of Holy Egypt spread quickly. Not only the people of other cities in Holy Egypt, but even the Aztecs in the southwest and the Mayan tribes in the south heard the news.
A few days ago, an Aztec transport team arrived in Cairo, bringing with them some fine steel knives and bundles of corn bought from the caravan.
Kamul had already exchanged pottery fragments for them, and the Aztecs were amazed after entering the wonder.
Of course, Kamul did this because of Lin Ke's instructions.
In Lin Ke's opinion, if these Aztecs could bring back what they saw and heard in Holy Egypt, the reputation of Holy Egypt would spread faster.
More and more Gentiles will go to Holy Egypt, and more Gentiles will learn about the culture of Holy Egypt.
At the same time, Mayan envoys also arrived one after another, wearing feather cloaks and bringing gifts of jade.
When they first entered these wonders, their eyes were filled with amazement at the spectacular sights.
"Is this the 'miracle' bestowed by Saint Pharaoh?"
"Oh! We have heard about this a long time ago. Even the great lord often talks to us about it!"
"After seeing it today, it is indeed extraordinary!"
Lin Ke stood on the high platform of the palace, overlooking the current situation in Cairo, and felt quite gratified.
Not only that, he had already sent [Pioneers] to the southeast corner of the Mayan rainforest a few days ago.
Everything in Holy Egypt is moving in a good direction.
The reputation of Holy Egypt spread farther and farther on this continent. From the fishing villages in the lower reaches of the Nile River to the ports along the Mediterranean coast, and even to the end of the trade routes far to the east, people were talking about the wonders of Holy Egypt.
Even the Atlantean soldier, after returning, described the magnificence of the Holy Egyptian wonders to his people in vivid detail.
The Amazon warriors brought back what they heard and felt about the Hanging Gardens, and even their leader, Marasia, sent a letter expressing her willingness to send more herbs in exchange for the opportunity to visit.
Because there are so many visitors, all the pottery fragments have been used up.
The fame of Holy Egypt spread like the flood of the Nile, sweeping everywhere.
At the same time, the supreme ruler in Jerusalem, the capital of the Hebrew Empire, fell into deep sorrow.
He sat on the throne, his hair had already turned mostly white, and his once sharp eyes were now dull.
Ever since the Hebrew Empire was defeated in the final battle with Holy Egypt and the news reached Jerusalem, he seemed to have aged dozens of years overnight.
His once mighty and tall body was now slightly hunched. When he had nothing to do, he would always unconsciously stroke the armrests of the throne with his fingers, recalling the glorious past of the Hebrews.
His brows were furrowed every day, and his face showed only fatigue and weakness.
That day, in the hall, an old minister stepped forward cautiously and said with his head bowed, "Your Majesty, the Supreme Ruler King, Holy Egypt is now very powerful, and the 'miracle' has attracted countless people to worship. Their wealth and prestige are increasing day by day."
"I think that instead of confronting each other, it is better to find an opportunity to ease the relationship. This may be more beneficial to our Hebrew Empire."
The minister spoke tremblingly as he spoke this, and it was obvious that he had considered it over and over again before he dared to speak.
Upon hearing this, the Supreme Ruler King's expression suddenly changed, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.
He stood up suddenly, his voice as cold as ice: "Ease? Do you want me to bow to that holy pharaoh?"
"How can the great Hebrew Empire surrender to a newly rising Pharaoh?"
Then, he paused, his tone becoming even darker: "You're not saying that because you want to visit those 'miracles', are you?"
Then, he waved his hand and said, "Come here, drag him away and behead him!"
Before the minister could react, he was grabbed by the guards and dragged out of the hall.
"Your Majesty the Supreme Ruler, please spare my life! Please spare my life!"
"I am only..."
“Crack!”
There was only dead silence in the hall.
The Supreme Ruler King sat down again, breathing heavily, his head slightly raised.
After a moment, he whispered to another minister beside him: "Pass the order and send envoys to the Greek city-states."
The minister was stunned and couldn't help asking, "Your Majesty, the Supreme Ruler King, the Greek city-states and I have always been at odds, why are you sending envoys to them?"
The Supreme Ruler King simply sneered and explained, "Now the only mortal enemy of the Hebrew Empire is Holy Egypt."
“No matter how hateful the Greeks are, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.”
"The holy Pharaoh of holy Egypt is the biggest worry for us Hebrews today."
The minister bowed his head and replied, "I understand."
After he withdrew, the Supreme Ruler sat alone on the throne.
The rise of Holy Egypt today is like a sword hanging over the head of the Hebrew Empire, making it unable to sleep or eat.
He knew that with the current strength of the Hebrews, they were no longer able to directly compete with the Holy Pharaoh who was at the peak of his power.
At this moment, a soldier hurried into the hall, knelt on one knee, and said in a hurried voice: "Supreme Ruler King, someone outside the hall wants to see you!"
The Supreme Ruler King frowned and asked, "Who wants to see you?"
The soldier lowered his head and replied, "He said he was from an organization called the Rose Cross, and claimed that he had a way to deal with Saint Egypt."
Upon hearing this, the Supreme Ruler King narrowed his eyes slightly. After a moment of silence, he raised his chin slightly and said, "Bring him up."
