Chapter 125 - 123: Woven Bag_1
The Eternal Domain’s road repair team used cloth bags filled with soil to repair the road, which gradually incited public outrage.
The commoners, already distressed and now furious, charged at the guards maintaining order for the competition.
The nobles in the stands also stood up one after another, condemning the Eternal Domain’s road repair team for wasting fabric and competing in a disgraceful manner.
Count Theodore’s complexion turned even uglier.
He had just noticed the Eternal Domain’s team using cloth bags to carry soil, and he immediately realized something was awry. He had organized this competition; Yan Xing’s use of fabric was a direct slap in his face.
This was definitely more than just a waste.
Now, due to the war, all prices were rising in Nuta City. The prices of food and cloth had doubled in a matter of days. For someone to dare use fabric to carry soil for road repair at this critical juncture would undoubtedly tarnish his prestige and send tremors through the city.
The competition had to be stopped.
Count Theodore asked Yan Xing sternly, "I don’t know what a woven bag is, but all I see is your road repair team wasting a lot of fabric. This is deception! It is blasphemy! Do you know how many clothes could be made from that fabric, how many families could peacefully get through the winter!"
Feeling the angry gazes around him, Yan Xing was still quite amazed. Plastic woven bags, after all... Who would use such things to make clothes?
