270: Chapter 270 Hey, hey, hey, that soldier, that soldier!
"Does the Overlord wish to go inside for a tour?"
Ji Kuang asked.
"Good, very well!"
Not to mention Xiang Yu's interest in this modern-style architecture, Xiang Liang, Fan Zeng, Yu Ziqi, and even Yu Ji were equally filled with curiosity about this architectural style they had never seen before.
Upon hearing that they could go inside for a tour, they naturally wanted to take a look.
The boxing gym was very bright because it used a large amount of glass for lighting.
Inside the boxing gym, besides Xiang Yu and his party, there were other people visiting as well; besides contestants from other war zones, there were also people from Xianyang City who had come here to visit and play.
In the boxing gym, there were many people wearing security uniforms, holding clubs and pitchforks in their hands.
"Hey, hey, hey, that soldier, that soldier!"
"Keep an eye on the people you brought!"
A security guard scolded a soldier who had brought contestants from another war zone to visit the boxing gym.
One of the people the soldier brought had run to a corner with few people and was undoing his waistband, clearly intending to relieve himself there.
The soldier scolded by the boxing gym security guard immediately shouted to stop the person about to relieve himself: "No urinating or defecating anywhere in the boxing gym! Go to the restroom over there to take care of it!"
"Restroom?"
Under the soldier's guidance, the man was led to the boxing gym's restroom.
"This side is the men's room, that side is the women's room. Don't walk into the women's room."
"Oh, oh!"
The man who needed to relieve himself nodded.
"This wall-mounted urinal is used like this."
The soldier said to the man: "Watch closely. When you want to use it, press the switch once."
"When you're finished urinating, press the switch again."
"Flush when you come, and flush when you go!"
"Do you understand!"
"Oh, oh, I see!"
The man hurriedly nodded.
"Uncle, Prime Minister Father, this is truly miraculous!"
Xiang Yu also came into the restroom. Listening to the soldier's explanation, he pressed the flush switch of the wall-mounted urinal and said with amazement: "Just press it, and it flushes by itself!"
"Indeed, indeed!"
Yu Ziqi also looked marveled.
Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng were the same; this design was truly ingenious!
The person capable of creating such an unconventional design must be that mysterious His Majesty the Head of State again.
Xiang Liang and Fan Zeng couldn't help but glance at each other; they became increasingly curious about His Majesty the Head of State.
The other party was truly a god-like man!
Xiang Liang also felt regret; why was Great Qin able to produce such a heroic leader again!
If that Zhao Fusu were a man of Chu, how wonderful that would be!
"This is the place for washing hands."
"Turn on the faucet, and water comes out."
"After washing your hands, remember to turn off the faucet."
Seeing the faucet, Xiang Yu, Yu Ziqi, Xiang Liang, and Fan Zeng were once again amazed.
Walking through this boxing gym was like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden; everything felt novel and caused them to marvel.
"This mirror is so bright!"
Yu Ji looked at the huge mirror hanging above the sink, her eyes full of pleasant surprise, as she continuously adjusted her beautiful hair with her slender fingers.
Although bronze mirrors were bright, there was still a gap compared to this mirror.
Yu Ji loved this bright mirror immensely.
Seeing that Yu Ji liked it, if not for the security guard nearby staring at him, Xiang Yu really would have wanted to pry the mirror off and give it to his beloved.
Ji Kuang said: "If Miss Yu Ji likes this mirror, you can go to the shopping mall to buy one."
"In our shopping mall, we sell these mirrors. From palm-sized ones to full-length mirrors that can reflect a whole person, they are all for sale."
"Is that so!"
Yu Ji said: "Then let's go to the shopping mall."
Ji Kuang said: "Won't you go inside to see the inner arena?"
Yu Ji glanced at Xiang Yu and said: "Then after we finish with the inner arena, let's go to the shopping mall."
"Mhm."
Xiang Yu was extremely looking forward to the inner arena of the boxing gym. Even the outer hall of the gym was so extraordinary, the inner arena would surely be even more so.
That would be the place where he would make a name for himself throughout Great Qin; he had to examine it carefully.
Led by Ji Kuang, they entered the inner arena of the boxing gym.
The size of the stage was not as large as a standard international track and field stadium, but the perimeter of the field was four hundred meters.
Surrounding it were rows of seats, each higher than the last, forming a high platform.
The dense number of seats could accommodate at least eight thousand people!
Xiang Yu thought that if he won in such a large arena and enjoyed the cheers from all around, that feeling would surely be explosively good!
After leaving the boxing gym, led by Ji Kuang, Xiang Yu and his party went to the shopping mall.
They first arrived at the food street. After seeing an entire street of delicacies from all over the Six Kingdoms, Xiang Yu and his party were all hungry.
Thus, they purchased some food.
They ate as they headed toward the shopping mall on the second floor.
The second floor of the mall was an open-plan area with various shops displaying many products under Zhao Fusu's banner, including paper shops, glassware, Mi Home Clothing Store, newspaper shops, bookstores, boxing-related merchandise including boxing gloves, boxing shorts, boxing underwear, boxing socks, as well as honeycomb coal and honeycomb coal heating stoves.
Agricultural machinery was also displayed here, such as steam rotary tillers and steam threshers.
As for old qin wine, auspicious metal vessels, grain stores, hoes, bamboo crates, and bamboo baskets, those were shops opened by the Qin Nobility.
Although the quantity of goods in this mall couldn't compare to modern times, it was definitely considered extremely abundant in Great Qin.
"It really is that mirror!"
When Yu Ji saw that incredibly shiny mirror in the shopping mall, her beautiful eyes immediately sparkled with starlight.
"Shopkeeper, how much is this mirror?"
There was worry in Yu Ji's eyes; she was afraid the price of this mirror would be too expensive.
Xiang Yu said: "Ji'er, no matter how much it costs, I will buy it for you."
He had made a fortune from endorsements; even if this mirror were made of gemstones, he wouldn't even blink while buying it.
"Overlord!"
Yu Ji was moved by Xiang Yu's words and couldn't help but want a hug.
The shopkeeper looked at Yu Ji and Xiang Yu; he really didn't want to dampen their spirits, but since they asked for the price, he had to answer.
"One qian."
"What?"
Xiang Yu was dumbfounded.
He was all prepared to take out ten gold pieces, act like a spendthrift for once, and overwhelm the shopkeeper with money just to win a smile from Yu Ji.
In the end, you tell me this mirror costs one qian!
"Otherwise?"
The shopkeeper rolled his eyes and said: "Did you think it was very expensive?"
"Uh!"
Xiang Yu was stunned; he hadn't expected this mirror to be so cheap.
Also not expecting the mirror to be so cheap were Yu Ji, Yu Ziqi, Xiang Liang, and Fan Zeng.
For such a bright mirror, they had originally thought the price would far exceed that of a bronze mirror.
A bronze mirror would cost at least dozens of qian, or even over a hundred.
Yet, it actually only cost one qian!
This price was just too common!
