I'll Come Clean! I Am The King Of Lolan!-Chapter 123 - Are We at the Wrong Place?
Chapter 123: Are We at the Wrong Place?
Seeing that the sun had set and it was almost time to go, Lorne immediately clapped his hands.
“It’s time, come with me. I’ll bring you to a place that can help with the population!”
Santako, Inagumi, and Hishiro immediately stood up with excitement on their faces.
They had been waiting for this moment for a long time. This man was the top talent of the Lolan Empire. Their good friend, Lorne, had personally taught them how to expand their population.
As long as they could learn some of the essences and bring this back to their empire, it would be enough for the emperor to pay them generously.
When the time came, they would be promoted and would make a fortune, making it easier for them to rise up as well.
The three of them rubbed their hands together and excitedly went forward to help Lorne close the tavern. Then, the four of them walked toward the street entrance of the street and rented a carriage there.
“Go to Merry Street!” 𝗳𝐫𝘦e𝘸𝗲𝚋𝓃𝚘v𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝒐m
After Lorne gave the order, the coachman drove the carriage toward Merry Street.
Soon, the carriage arrived at the location Lorne had requested. After Lorne paid the coachman, he waved for the three of them to come down.
The three envoys jumped down excitedly. However, as soon as they stood firmly on the ground, they were immediately dumbfounded. f𝘳ℯℯ𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oν𝑒Ɩ.c𝑜𝙢
What kind of place was this? Why were there lights and decorations? The people who came and went were all men and women. The atmosphere even seemed heavy.
It was not that they did not have brothels in Fusang, but their culture was different, so when they saw the situation, they immediately reacted badly.
It seemed that the secret of the population expansion that Lorne mentioned was found in this brothel alley, a place of fireworks. This was f*cking ridiculous.
The Fusang envoys were a little dumbfounded. They really could not figure out what the relationship between the Brothel Alley and the population of Fusang was about, so they all turned their gazes to Lorne.
Lorne, however, did not seem to notice anything amiss. He only raised his hand to the brothel beside him.
“Let’s go, brothers. This is our destination today.”
Inagumi scratched his head, then pointed to the brothel in confusion.
“Sir Lorne, can this place really find out the secret of expanding the population?
“I have similar buildings in Fusang, but I haven’t seen any changes in the population in many years.”
Lorne immediately looked at the three of them with disdain, then he sighed and shook his head.
“Shallow, you guys are too shallow!
“My original intention was to let you visit brothels. My real intention was to let you understand the deeper meaning through this.”
“Huh?”
The three of them expressed their confusion.
Was there really a deeper meaning to visiting brothels?
The three of them had fallen into serious self-doubt.
Lorne saw the three of them looking dumbfounded and could not help but secretly think to himself.
This was the effect he wanted. If the three of them blindly followed him, that meant that they were turning complacent. Then, he took the three Fusang envoys to the side and began to explain to them with many gestures.
“Men marry women and give birth to newborns. This means that the population will continue to grow.
“Only when more and more babies are born, and the number far exceeds the number of people who die of old age, illness, and death, will the population of that country be able to expand?
“Therefore, the development of the country’s population is related to the affairs between men and women. Do you think it makes sense?”
Lorne brought his great deception technique to the highest level and began the most powerful deception.
It was a part half-truth and half-lie. The way he distorted the concept, he started to talk sense to the three Fusang envoys.
When the three of them suddenly heard this, it made a lot of sense.
The increase in population meant a sharp increase in the number of newborns, right? Therefore, the three of them nodded in agreement.
Lorne clapped his hands lightly and continued his analysis.
“If a country’s men and women seem to be very conflicted about marriage and are unwilling to have children of their own, then wouldn’t the number of newborns be drastically reduced?
“On the other hand, if a country’s men and women are calmer about such things and actively cooperate with each other, then wouldn’t they be able to have more newborns and increase the population?”
This made a lot of sense to the three envoys. The three of them were all cultured people, so they nodded after thinking about it.
This made sense.
Lorne immediately slapped his thigh and said in a somewhat hurried tone.
“Isn’t that so? So for a country like Fusang, the key to developing the population is to completely open the minds of the men and women there.
“This is the fastest method apart from time accumulation. I’m here today to teach you how to completely open up the relationship between men and women in the country.”
The three envoys were immediately shocked, and then they revealed a look of realization.
It was very reasonable for Lorne to bring them here. So this was the real secret to rapidly expanding the population. They had never thought of it that way!
As long as the culture of men and women in the country was open-minded and there were no restrictions on matters between the sexes, they could increase the number of newborns.
Wonderful, truly wonderful! Lorne was indeed the top talent of the Lolan Empire. Even such a secret had been discovered by him.
Inagumi even patted his forehead and said incoherently.
“That’s why you specially brought us to this brothel to let us experience what it means to have a truly open culture of men and women.
“This is also convenient for us to give advice to the emperor after we return to our country.”
Lorne immediately patted him on the shoulder.
“That’s right. You’re getting smarter and smarter friend. That’s what I meant.
“This place can be considered the most open place for a man and a woman in our Lolan Empire. Only here can I let you experience what it means to be a man and a woman. Only then can I give you a lesson.”
The three envoys of Fusang were immediately amazed and bowed to Lorne together.
“Sir Lorne, you’ve really put in a lot of effort for us. We’re very grateful!”
Lorne patted the shoulders of the three of them and led the way.
“Let’s not talk about that for now. Come in with me and experience it. Only then will you have some real understanding.
“Talking about it now is just wishful thinking. After all, it’s just a theory on paper. You won’t be able to fully understand it unless you’ve experienced it.”
