With the experience of hosting an exhibition of Mo skills, Meton calmly walked to the center of the stage.
With a wave of his hand, the entire place fell silent. Meton's powerful ability to control the situation made some people gasp.
"Is this the celebrity effect that Meton was talking about?"
In a private room on the second floor of the West City Center, Li Shimin asked with a serious expression. Behind him, a group of princes and princesses looked curiously at Meton, who was in the center of the stage.
Li Shimin certainly wouldn't miss such a grand event. Moreover, Meton had caused such a big commotion, so he took the opportunity to bring his children to watch the fun on the last day of the event.
Li Chengqian, who was behind him, stepped forward and said, "Reporting to Imperial Father, the name 'Star' is derived from the meaning of Venus, Venus, to the east. It implies that a person with influence is able to radiate light in all directions, giving people guidance."
"So, he used the influence of the brothel's top courtesan to guide the people to buy wine?" Li Shimin stared.
Li Chengqian smiled bitterly and nodded. "It is said that the effect is excellent. In the West City Festival, Xie Qianchou has become the most popular product among the barbarian merchants in the West, second only to silk."
"Imperial Father, this is a move with only benefits and no harm. Not only can we sell our goods, we can also give those poor women a path to survival." Princess Changle defended Moton.
Li Shimin suddenly felt a surge of anger. The brothel itself was a dirty and ugly place, and his daughter often talked about it. This made Li Shimin feel embarrassed.
"Mo Jiazi!"
Li Shimin gritted his teeth and stared hatefully at Meton.
On the stage, Meton was like a national idol, showing off his ability to control the situation. With a wave of his hand, Yuchi Baolin pushed a booth covered with a red cloth onto the stage.
Since Meton had created such a big disturbance, he must have something good. How could the three of them miss out on such a good show? They had to shamelessly help. Meton had no choice but to make arrangements for them.
Meton reached out and lifted the lid, revealing a tray. On the tray was a diamond the size of an egg. This was the biggest reward that Meton had found in the entire Xi City. If it was placed in the future, it would definitely leave its name on the diamond ranking list.
"According to the Mohist School of Thought, the diamond is the hardest object in the world. It was a thousand times harder than stone, and a hundred and fifty times harder than the hardest corundum. The steel did not leave a single mark on his body. It will never wear out. "Meton raised the diamond in his hand and said.
This stage was designed using the sound amplification technology of the Ink Skills Exhibition, and Meton's voice could be heard clearly throughout the entire venue.
"Wow!"
Everyone exclaimed and looked at the small egg-sized diamond in Meton's hand in disbelief. They couldn't believe that it was so hard.
Some of the wealthy businessmen nodded. They had also wanted to get their hands on the diamond, but it was too hard and couldn't be polished.
Some of the wealthy businessmen didn't give up and hired many skilled craftsmen. They tried everything, but to no avail. In the end, they could only give up.
Meton turned around and placed the diamond on the stage. Yuchi Bao Lin, who was like an iron tower, picked up a huge hammer from the bottom of the stage and raised it high with both hands. With a loud shout, the hammer whistled through the air and smashed onto the diamond.
Clang!
A loud sound reverberated throughout the city.
"What a man!" Li Shimin looked at the muscular Yuchi Bao Lin and couldn't help but exclaim.
After undergoing Meton's special weight-bearing training, Yuchi Bao Lin's physique was even better than before. His strength had greatly increased, and his muscles were intimidating.
Under Yuchi Bao Lin's heavy blow, the specially designed stage was deformed. Yuchi Bao Lin's hands were numb from the impact, and his entire arms had lost all feeling.
Meton found the diamond amidst the mess and raised it high in the air.
"Perfect!" Meton raised his arms and shouted.
"It's so hard!"
"This must be the hardest thing in the world!"
Suddenly, the audience was in an uproar. Such a big hammer, such a strong man, still couldn't do anything to the diamond.
"No wonder it's the hardest thing in the world," Li Shimin exclaimed in shock. He didn't think Yuchi Bao Lin would cooperate with Meton to fake the diamond.
All the princes and princesses were in awe as well.
"No external force can do anything to it. It's so hard that it can't be carved. People say that rotten wood can't be carved, but they don't know that things that are too hard can't be carved either. "
Everyone below the stage burst into laughter.
Rotten wood can't be carved. This came from the Analects of Confucius, so everyone knew this story.
Li Shimin immediately nodded his head. His iron birch carriage was the same. If he used soft things, how could he carve out something hard?
Suddenly, Li Shimin's expression changed. The School of Mo hadn't been able to cut such hard iron birch wood. Didn't that mean the School of Mo also had a way to cut the diamond?
As expected, Meton raised his voice and said, "Everything can be solved, but how can a pearl be covered in dust? The School of Mo, after many difficulties, finally found a way to cut the diamond."
Meton waved his hand, and Cheng Chumo walked out with a solemn face, pushing a stage.
Tearing off the red cloth, Morton took out a translucent, thumb-sized, polygonal diamond.
Meton raised it high. At that moment, above the stage, a mechanism clicked. A layer of black cloth rolled across the sky, blocking out the sunlight. The center of the stage suddenly became dark. Only a ray of sunlight shone through a round hole in the center.
"A small hole?"
Everyone was surprised. This familiar scene reminded them of the performance of a small hole in the School of Mo's exhibition.
But this time, everyone guessed wrong. Under everyone's gaze, Meton gently walked to the round hole in the center and placed the diamond in his hand under the sunlight.
In an instant.
The entire diamond burst into a dazzling light, illuminating the entire audience.
"Wow!"
Everyone couldn't help but exclaim, especially the women. They all looked at the most dazzling light in the center of the stage with infatuation.
Cheng Chumo was the closest to it, and he was almost blinded by its brilliance. He had secretly checked it backstage, but he only felt that the diamond was crystal clear and there was nothing special about it. He had never thought that it could be so beautiful in such a special environment.
In the box on the second floor, Li Shimin couldn't help but gasp. Even though he had seen a lot, seeing such a peerless jewel, he couldn't help but be shaken.
The group of princes and princesses looked at the only light on the stage with infatuation.
The entire display only lasted for ten breaths of time. Meton waved his hand, and suddenly all the darkness fell. The entire audience was restored to light. The diamond's dazzling light disappeared, but everyone's hearts couldn't calm down for a long time.
"I have waited four days for the entire Western Region Conference. In these four days, no one showed any interest in the diamond," Meton said as he looked around.
The group of merchants sighed regretfully. Such a peerless jewel was right in front of their eyes, but they couldn't see it.
But they didn't have any resentment in their hearts. Mo Jiazi hadn't been so ruthless. Instead, he had waited for four days before buying. It wasn't that he didn't give them a chance, but that they didn't have the foresight.
"The polished diamond is named diamond by the School of Mo. It is beautiful, rare, pure, and unbreakable. It is a symbol of love and loyalty. It represents eternal and unbreakable love. "
Meton looked around and revealed a meaningful smile as he spoke slowly.
