Create a fantasy paradise starting from Conan

"Brother Mu, you're really going too far!"

"I know you earned this money very easily, perhaps without any effort. I also know you are very capable, and making money is not difficult for you."

"But for us, and for the vast majority of people in this world, making money is a very hard thing."

"You're spending money like water and treating it like it's not worth it. That's really, really bad!"

"??? Haha..." Bai Mu was slightly startled, then burst into laughter, "You're right, I accept criticism, just this once, I promise."

Although he instantly became wealthy after purchasing the identity, he could not afford to hire people from all over the country.

In fact, this was not the Bai family's money, nor his own savings, but the eunuch's money.

The day before yesterday at noon, after leaving the palace, Bai Mu went straight to the residences of the seven great eunuchs.

The original intention was to mark the location for easy transmission.

But the invisible state allowed him to ignore the walls, and he quickly discovered the gold, silver and jewelry hidden by the seven people.

After that, they were all wiped out.

Considering that having too much money is useless, spending the money can not only buy reputation but also better implement the eunuch cleansing plan.

But I didn’t expect to be blamed by the little girl.

Come to think of it, from the perspective of others, what I did was simply the biggest spendthrift behavior in the world.

"Brother Mu!"

Tifa's lips unconsciously pursed and she clenched her fists tightly.

To be honest, this is not my money, and I have no right to comment on it.

But it makes me really angry to see so much money being wasted.

Inviting the whole country to dinner together? What a grand ceremony! Does the whole country need a meal like this?

And, you know what everyone says about you?

Even if you treat others, no one will remember your kindness and will just call you a fool.

Chapter 127 I Get to Know You Again

"Hey, hey...Have you heard? Mr. Bai is inviting everyone to dinner at noon on May 1st. I heard there will be nine dishes and one soup."

"I've heard about it too. It's going viral online, but it doesn't make any sense. With over three billion people in the country, does the Bai family have that much money? It would cost hundreds of trillions, right?"

"I feel like there's more to it than that. They paid for the travel expenses and transportation, and it seems like in order to ensure delivery to everyone, they even hired a large number of news media outlets to oversee and investigate."

"I heard that not only will we be treated to a meal, but there will also be a singing and dancing performance that day."

"The singing and dancing was just a show by inviting the most famous courtesans from all over the country to perform on stage, and everyone watched the live broadcast together. It didn't cost much. Compared to eating, it's a drop in the bucket."

"That's right, the whole country... General Bai might get sick from anger now."

"Who says it's not? This is huge news. It's the first time in thousands of years that someone wants to treat the entire nation to a meal. Even the emperor wouldn't be so bold."

"That's right. This kind of prodigal son only appears once every few thousand years. The eighteen generations of ancestors of the Bai family would be so angry that they would jump out of their coffins."

Walking on the street, Tifa lowered her head silently, her pace getting faster and faster.

At this moment, she felt unhappy, but she couldn't tell why.

Although he was also very dissatisfied with Brother Mu's behavior and often complained with everyone, he always felt a little angry when he heard outsiders say this.

"Hmph...! Although Brother Mu is the biggest idiot ever seen and the world's biggest loser, he is also a good person."

When she reached the door of her house, Tifa suddenly noticed a long-haired young man standing at the bottom of the stairs and stopped in her tracks.

"Are you here to see Brother Mu?"

"Oh...? How did you know?"

"These past few days, people have been coming every day to pay their respects to the greatest prodigal son of all time...Brother Mu is clearly a good man."

As she spoke, Tifa's voice became smaller and less confident.

Good people are good people, but there is really no way to explain this matter.

"Ugh......"

Li Xingke sighed lightly. He had been investigating this matter for the past few days.

I heard that the Kazakhstan region in the northwest was in an uproar. General Bai smashed a lot of things, cursed his son for being unfilial, and wanted to expel him from the tribe.

As for Luoyang, everyone was laughing at the Bai family.

It is said that the people in India who had been suffering from stomachache all day also calmed down and prepared to finish the meal before continuing the parade.

Li Xingke really couldn't figure out what was going on. He thought that the Kazakhstan region was going to stand up, but now it seems that is not the case.

However, it’s easy to imagine that the Bai family must be in chaos these days.

After a slight hesitation, he turned and left without knocking.

Seeing this, Tifa couldn't help but ask:

"Aren't you here to see Brother Mu?"

"That's enough. It won't be too late to see Brother Bai again in five days, on May 1st."

"Hmm... Indeed, it's only five days later."

After watching the long-haired man leave, Tifa walked into the gate of the Bai Mansion with heavy steps.

During the first three days after arriving here, the maids and servants in the mansion were very nimble, with many smiles on their faces and a hint of indescribable arrogance in their demeanor.

But at this moment, they were all in a low mood, with their heads down the whole time, and from time to time, three or two people could be seen whispering.

Entering the main house, endless crying sounds came from inside the house.

Tifa quickened her pace and entered the main hall. The first thing she saw was several young women crying with their heads in their hands.

The second thing he saw was Bai Mu sitting in the main seat drinking tea, Shinano massaging his shoulders, and Celia standing aside, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.

Tifa quickly walked over to Celia and asked quietly:

"Sister Celia, who are these people?"

"I heard from Captain Baimu that they are the captain's father's concubines, meaning they are the captain's aunts and technically his elders. Since the captain's father is stationed away and can't come here, they were sent here to question the captain."

"and then?"

"I was scolded mercilessly by the captain."

"Uh...I see."

Not that strange.

It has been almost a week since Tifa came to this world, and she has a certain understanding of the local customs and practices of flower cultivation.

Here a man can be with multiple women at the same time. He can only have one wife, but he can have many concubines.

The wife has a lot of power, no different from back home.

In contrast, concubines have a very low status and have no right to complain about anything.

"I think it's pointless to dwell on how much money was spent or how much was lost, now that it's happened."

"Right now, the most important thing we should do is to minimize the losses and find a way to make this happen to the best of our ability, leaving everyone speechless."

"If...if the Bai family really goes bankrupt, as long as we can keep some money, enough for everyone to live on, and we can still make a living by doing business, we won't end up living on the streets."

"Brother Mu, I just asked around on the street, and everyone is talking about this. Almost everyone knows that Brother Mu is going to treat everyone in the country to a meal on May 1st."

"The time and place are all known to me. Even the complaints about not receiving the food or being dissatisfied with the food that day are clearly recorded."

"As long as we increase publicity and let everyone know about this, we should be able to prevent corruption and ensure the smooth progress of this matter."

Bai Mu stared at Tifa in a daze, his reaction a little dazed for a moment.

He did not ask the little girl to do this; it was obviously her own action.

Moreover, this mentality of always looking forward is truly admirable.

"Yes, I'm getting to know you again."

? ?

Tifa was slightly stunned and laughed unconsciously:

"Brother Mu, why do you talk like you've known me for a long time? We've only known each other for a week."

"Haha...that's true."

Bai Mu paused and said with a smile:

“On that day, the whole city will have a meal together.”

"Since all the civil and military officials have accepted my invitation, Gao Hai agreed that we hold the dinner inside the imperial palace so that the emperor can join us and have some fun together."

"Come to think of it, it's impossible for the emperor to be left out of a banquet attended by the entire nation."

"That day, you and Shinano will come with me to the palace and join in the fun."

"However, your strength is not enough. Remember to follow my footsteps closely and don't get lost."

"Understood!" Tifa quickly agreed, then quickly remembered the main task assigned by the Lord God, and her expression instantly became serious, "Brother Mu, the reason you did this, could it be..."

Noticing that she hadn't finished, Bai Mu chuckled:

"What is it?"

"Hehe...After this incident, Brother Mu has become the most famous person in the country. If the goal is fame, the effect is absolutely first-rate."

"That's true."

After May 1st, you can complete at least two or three achievements in the reputation series.

If there is a chance, we will get rid of Gao Hai's seven eunuchs that day.

After that, you can set off for the island country.

Judging from the original work, Lelouch met CC in June and then started to take action, so there is still time.

Chapter 128: The No. 1 Prodigal Son in the Universe

"Why are you suddenly so noisy?"

By May 1st, the Forbidden City was bustling with activity, with a huge and eye-catching platform, ribbons and banners hanging everywhere, and maids and guards running around, unusually busy.

The eunuchs Zhao Hao, Xia Wang, Cheng Zhong and others who were directing their eunuchs to move things and count supplies had unprecedented smiles on their faces. The palace, which was unusually quiet in the past, became extremely noisy at this moment.

Early in the morning, the girl, who had never left the palace in the past few years, was awakened by the sound outside the window. After dressing and washing up with the help of four personal maids, she opened the window and was immediately shocked by the scene outside.

"What happened out there? Is today a special day?"

"what...!"

Hearing this, the four maids suddenly reacted and looked terrified.

Because of usual practice, and the fact that the emperor had not left his room for the past few days, no one told her about this.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. This was our mistake. We should have told you about this earlier."

"Last week, Secretary Bai Mubai publicly announced online that he would treat everyone in the country to a meal at noon on May 1st at his own expense."

"At first, everyone thought it was just a joke from Lord Bai and didn't take it too seriously."

"But that afternoon, Lord Bai found a large number of grain merchants and relevant departments in various places to cooperate, and asked the national media to conduct supervision."

"During those days, the Hongyang Hotel was filled with mountains of gold and silver. It's said that Lord Bai's father, General Bai, who guarded the northwest border, was so angry that he vomited three liters of blood and was seriously ill for several days."

"Because this is the first of its kind, everyone is looking forward to it. I wonder if today's meal will go smoothly."

"Ah...?" The emperor was in a state of confusion and couldn't recover for a long time.

What's the situation?

He is just a secretary, but he has enough money to treat the whole country to a meal?

Even if his father is General Bai, there are more than three billion people in the country?

"Did I hear correctly? You mean everyone in the country?"
