"The importance of the World Merchants Conference held in Shouzhou on June 5, 2019, was self-evident. At the beginning, it was portrayed as a "small people's conference that pursues profits" by those who are interested. But the more it went, the more profound the impact of this conference, from economy, military, politics, people's livelihood, from the Tang Dynasty to the entire world, new changes in all aspects will be directed to this conference if we trace it back.

However, in the eyes of Shouzhou people at that time, what this conference brought them was only a variety of novelty and liveliness, which was not as attractive as the city-ring race that day."

,, Excerpted from "Book of Southern Tang? Major Events of Lin Feng" written by Shi Yan, a historian of the Southern Tang Dynasty

The excitement and novelty seemed to be suddenly revealed to the people of Shouzhou:

Starting from June 2, merchant ships have begun to arrive at the docks in the north of the city. These merchant ships have different sizes and different styles, but they basically have the same characteristic: exquisiteness and luxury.

What arrived with the ship was not only the big merchants from all over the world who spoke various dialects, but also the various goods from the south and north of the mountains, south and north of the sea.

Lin Feng was prepared for this situation and had already ordered Lu Jiang to level dozens of acres of areas outside the moat in the north gate of Shouzhou City, calling it "The World Goods Expo", which quickly made this place a place where people in the city called their relatives to hang out and shop.

At the same time, various carriages from the West, the South and the East arrived one after another, and merchants rushing in to quickly occupied the large and small inns in Shouzhou City.

When Lu Jiang came to tell Lin Feng that some merchants could not find a place to live, Lin Feng immediately mobilized all the officials of the governor's office to contribute their own house and temporarily receive guests. Later, Lin Feng simply vacated all the office spaces in the front of the governor's office and temporarily used them as residences. Anyway, it is summer now, so accommodation is easy to deal with.

At this time, Lin Feng had to deal with all kinds of trivial matters about the merchant conference on the one hand, and on the other hand, he had to constantly receive merchant teams from Jinling, Chudi, Qingyuan, Fuzhou, and even Wenzhou. Among them, there were also many well-informed merchants from other places. Lin Feng treated them equally and at least had to meet and chat.

Of course, Lin Feng, who was very busy, had a lot of "extra benefits", and every merchant would offer a gift list. At this time, Lin Feng, contrary to his previous resistance, refused everyone like a wealthy slave, and accepted everything as a gift.

However, these merchants often come with excitement on their faces and then go back with a lot of doubts. Lin Feng didn't say a word about the specific agenda and content of this merchant conference, and gave them a single sentence: "I will know everything until June 5th."

The merchants had the greatest curiosity. The more they could not find out, the more they wanted to know, they tried their best to inquire about various news in the city, only to learn that there would be a race around the city on June 5th. All merchants were asked to gather outside the northern city gate on June 5th. On the evening of June 4th, another news came out, and a very small number of people were invited by Lin Feng to the governor's mansion for a banquet.

There were only six people invited to the mansion, Huang Zongwang, the richest man of Chu State from Tanzhou, Fang Hongxing, the overseas head of the Fang family from Jinling, the intelligence of Islam from Quanzhou, the Manichaeism Mohui, the overseas trade Pei family head Pei Songlin, and the head of the Kang family Kang Zhonghai.

However, when these six "lucky guys" in everyone's eyes finally walked out of the governor's mansion, the merchants who came to investigate the news had to be disappointed. Lin Feng just met them to reminisce about the past, and did not mention the content of the conference that was about to begin the next day.

On June 5th, the sky is bright and bright as soon as the sun comes out of the horizon.

But outside the north gate of Shouzhou City, everyone's mind was attracted by the upcoming race around the city, and no one cared about the sun radiating light.

On the west side of the city gate, a large wooden platform facing north and south was temporarily built. On the wooden Taipei were piled with high wooden shelves. The wealthy businessmen were led to the wooden shelves and sat at will.

At this time, there was nothing on the platform except a huge war drum and two large racks covered by big red cloth and surrounded by soldiers. Under the platform, two rows of Shouzhou soldiers stood in a human wall, isolated the nearly 1,000 contestants participating in the competition from countless crowds watching the fun.

At the third hour, Lin Feng led all his family in the mansion to appear at the north gate. Lin Feng, who was dressed in a simple manner, led by five beauties, including Zhou Ehuang, Xiao Feier, Duan Feihong, Yaya, and Ling Feifei, followed closely, which immediately caused a stir.

Lin Feng clasped his fists and smiled and walked to the wooden platform under the guidance of several special forces soldiers. He first arranged the beauties politely and waved to the wealthy businessmen before walking to the front of the wooden platform and raised his hands: "Hello, everyone in Shouzhou, Lin Feng is polite."

"Hello, Lord Lin."

"Thank you, Lord Lin."

...

The response below was like a tsunami, especially the men, women, young and old participating in the competition, shouted desperately, and eased their tension.

Lin Feng quietly waited for the cheers to stop, and then said loudly: "A wise man once asked me what happiness is. At that time, I was still young and casually answered that it was love, wealth, fame, but Sapiens shook his head and told me loudly that happiness is good health."

Happiness means good health. Now, not only the wealthy businessmen on the stage were puzzled, but the people below all started to talk in a low voice. In the crowd, there seemed to be only a few old people nodding in agreement.

"That wise man told me that the body is the boat of wisdom, the foundation of lotus emotions, and the 'one' before huge data. Without this 'one', all feelings, money, and fame are meaningless zeros. Lin sincerely wishes everyone present to be healthy and healthy forever. Let us start from this roundabout race to health." Lin Feng waved his arms and shouted, using the health concept of later generations to bewitch the people on the scene.

After shouting, taking advantage of the silence of the scene, Lin Feng walked behind the wooden platform and enthusiastically invited everyone to run with him. Now, basically all the wealthy businessmen were in trouble. There were basically few people with normal body shapes in these people who could enjoy the whole world.

Lin Feng laughed loudly, waved to the beauties of his family, turned around and walked off the stage, walked to the temporary starting point line, waved to the stage, and waved his hand to the stage. The two special forces immediately picked up the drumsticks as thick as their arms, and used all their strength to beat the drum.

“Bang, bang, bang, bang.”

The thunderous drum sounds were as tight as the sound, which triggered the cheers of the people beside them, and refueled the excitement of the wealthy businessmen.

Lin Feng smiled and nodded to the young men beside him, pointed to the big drum on the stage, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, let's run together."

Several young men nodded excitedly.

The drums suddenly stopped, and Lin Feng shouted, "Run." He rushed through the starting line first. The young men also shouted and rushed forward with all the competition members shouted, and ran across the starting line one by one.

The Circus Tour finally began, and the cheers on both sides suddenly rang out in the sky. Infected by this emotion, many wealthy businessmen also stood up and shouted loudly.

Lin Feng ran for 300 meters, and immediately covered his ribs with his hands to slow down, gradually giving way to the outsiders, finally stopped, bent down and stroking his ribs to breathe. Several soldiers lined up with human walls quickly lined up and helped Lin Feng back to the stage.

Although this small detail surprised many participants and audiences, the long race team did not slow down at all and quickly ran to the west. Most wealthy businessmen had just discovered that Lin Feng was injured and quickly surrounded him to ask about his injuries.

Lin Feng explained with a wry smile: "Some trauma is not worth mentioning."

After comforting everyone, Lin Feng smiled and pointed at the audience and said, "The people's race just now was just a prelude to lay the groundwork. The team that really wanted all the VIPs to visit came."
