Li Shi Min was so excited that his body was trembling.
He bowed deeply to Chu Fan."
"Sage King, on behalf of the Great Tang's billions of citizens, We thank you for your great contribution to the Great Tang!”
"Here, I can guarantee you that when I imitate the Qilin Pavilion in the future and confer titles to meritorious officials of the Great Tang, you will be the first!”
The Qilin Pavilion that Li Shimin mentioned referred to the Emperor Xuan of the Western Han Dynasty, who had ordered a painter to paint portraits of eleven meritorious officials and hang them in the Qilin Pavilion to reward them for their meritorious deeds.
Since then, Qilin Pavilion had become the dream of countless officials.
To be able to hang his portrait in a place similar to Qilin Pavilion was the lifelong pursuit of countless officials.
Whether it was Xiao Yu, Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and other civil officials, or Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong, Qin Qiong and other generals, they were all like this.
Thus, when they heard Li Shimin say that Chu Fan would be the first person to be conferred the title of meritorious minister of the Great Tang, Xiao Yu, Fang Xuanling, and the others were shocked.
Then, they all looked at Chu Fan with envy.
Chu Fan raised his eyebrows when he heard Li Shi Min's words.
He knew that a few years later, Li Shimin had indeed imitated the Qilin Pavilion of the Han Dynasty and conferred the title of 24 meritorious officials of the Lingyan Pavilion.
At this moment, the nobles standing in front of Chu Fan included more than half of the twenty-four meritorious officials of the Lingyan Pavilion.
To be honest, Chu Fan didn't really care about the Lingyan Pavilion that Xiao Yu and Fang Xuanling coveted.
However, as the saying goes, one should not hit a smiling face.
Chu Fan reluctantly accepted Li Shi Min's kindness.
He said to Li Shi Min,"
"Emperor, thank you for your commendation."
After a polite greeting, Chu Fan continued,"
"Emperor, I have already manufactured enough mobile phones. I want to ask you, how long will it take for mobile phones to be popularized in the Great Tang?”
Li Shi Min pondered for a moment and replied,
"If we use the new flying kites manufactured by the Military Equipment Bureau of the Tang Empire to transport the mobile phones, it will take about three days to transport them to the various provinces of the Tang Empire.”
"However, the mobile phone is so magical and exquisite that it must have cost a lot to make.”
"The Great Tang has only been established for twenty-some years, and many of its people are not rich. Even if mobile phones and divine objects are shipped to various parts of the Great Tang, not everyone can afford it!”
Hearing Li Shiming's worried words, Princess Li Lizhi smiled and said,"
"Imperial Father, you worry too much."
"Master made the cell phone to benefit the people of the Great Tang. He didn't intend to collect money!”
The Sage King didn't plan to take the money?
Li Shiming and the other nobles were stunned by Li Lizhi's words.
She didn't know how Chu Fan managed to make 150 million phones in just half a day.
However, for a divine item like a mobile phone, not to mention its magical functions, just its exquisite appearance alone could instantly kill many expensive accessories.
In the eyes of Li Shiming and the others, the cost of a cell phone must be very high.
They had hoped that Chu Fan would lower the price of the cell phone so that more people in the Tang Empire could afford it.
Li Lizhi's words were completely out of Li Shiming's expectations.
They had never thought that Chu Fan would give away a divine item like the phone, which was destined to cause a sensation in the Great Tang and bring them a lot of wealth, for the sake of the people of the Great Tang!
One had to know that even if each cell phone was only sold for one tael of silver.
The wealth earned from selling 150 million cell phones was enough to make even Li Shimin's heart flutter!
Li Shi Min and the others were shocked, and they wondered if they had heard wrongly.
After a while.
Li Shi Min's voice trembled as he said to Chu Fan,
"Sage King, was Chang Le joking with me just now?”
Chu Fan nodded.
"What Changle said is true. I am indeed prepared to give away all my mobile phones for free!”
"Emperor, I know that with the magic of the mobile phone, if we sell it, we definitely won't have to worry about sales. It can bring us a lot of wealth.”
"But I just want to spread cell phones throughout the Great Tang as soon as possible so that the people of the Great Tang can use them!”
Hearing Chu Fan's words, Li Shimin, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, and the other nobles of the Great Tang looked at Chu Fan with deep admiration.
What was a sage?
Only a person like Chu Fan was worthy of being called a sage!
That was a fortune that could rival a country!
In the face of such a shocking amount of wealth, Chu Fan had given it up without hesitation for the sake of the people of the Great Tang!
Noble, he was too noble!
Li Shi Min bowed to Chu Fan again and said,"
"Sage King, your moral character is something that even ancient sages can't compare to!”
"After cell phones are popularized, I will personally write a biography of the Sage Monarch so that every citizen of the Great Tang will know of his deeds!”
Li Shi Min's first sentence was already a very high praise, but the second sentence shocked everyone in the hall!
Even Chu Fan looked at Li Shi Min in surprise,"
"Li Shi Min is indeed worthy of being called the emperor of the ages.”
One had to know that in ancient times, it was important to not write a biography.
No matter how outstanding a person was, they would only write a biography after they died.
Moreover, there had never been a situation where the emperor had written a biography for others.
Li Shi Min expressed his gratitude to Chu Fan. Not only did he break the tradition of not writing a biography, but he also planned to write a biography for Chu Fan himself!
Such sincerity was sufficient!
