Datang: Li Er, are you teaching me how to do things?

Chapter 163 I Have Confidence
Not long after, a middle-aged man with the appearance of the Western Regions came to the Tai Chi Hall.

This one is not flattering, with a horse face, a long nose, a little hooked, and a thin face, which looks very mean.

He is very similar to the wizard in the cartoons of later generations. If he wears a black robe, he can be a wizard without makeup.

But since he came here for business, it doesn't make sense to belittle his appearance at this time.

So after this person introduced himself, Li Yun smiled and explained the reason for bringing their show forward.

When this "wizard" introduced himself just now, he said that his name was "Asak".

When Asak heard Li Yun's words, he smiled slightly, and then said in awkward Chinese: "Your Highness, the Crown Prince, knows that the last show is the grand finale."

"knew."

"Does His Royal Highness know that the finale of the show is to perform to the fullest and make everyone like it."

Li Yun nodded, "I know this too."

"Does His Royal Highness feel that his show is more exciting than the performance of our Kang Guo Circus?"

"Yes, I have that confidence."

Asak curled his lips, with undisguised disdain, glanced at Li Yun, and then asked: "How old is His Royal Highness?"

"15 years old, soon to be 16 years old."

Asak showed such an expression, he continued: "With all due respect, His Royal Highness is too young to have aesthetic ability at all."

He paused, and then said: "His Royal Highness, does your circus know how old our circus is?"

"do not know."

"Our circus has a history of 120 years. When our circus was established, the Central Plains was still in chaos."

The more this person talked, the more he went too far. The performance of this broken circus has such a sense of superiority.

When the Han people played the circus, these peoples from the Western Regions had not yet come, and they were still enslaved by the Huns.

Changsun Wuji took a step forward, and said in a cold voice, "Asak, get down to business."

Asak also felt that what he just said was too arrogant. He chuckled and continued, "Our circus has traveled to every country in the Western Regions since its opening, including Persia, Tianzhu, and Turks."

"Even in the former Sui Dynasty, we once performed for Emperor Yang Jian, and we were the finale performance at that time."

"No matter where we perform, we can get a lot of applause."

"The most beautiful memory in many people's life is watching our circus performance."

"With all due respect, Your Highness, you are fine, but you are too young, have you really seen a circus performance?"

Asak said a lot, and although it was a little insulting, it was not without reason.

When everyone heard the words, they all looked at Li Yun.

In fact, they are still skeptical about Li Yun's program, so they want to see how Li Yun will refute at this time, and whether they can come up with some strong evidence.

Instead of always saying something to give everyone a surprise.

If you haven't seen it, who knows if it's a surprise or a fright?

Li Yun smiled, and then said: "Listen to Mr. Asak, Mr. Asak has been to many places?"

Asak is very proud, this is what he is most proud of, "That's natural."

"Then Mr. Asak has been to Egypt."

Egypt still has a great reputation. After all, it was once a super empire that spanned Asia and Africa, and it competed with Rome for supremacy.

So many people in Datang have never heard of it, but people like Asak have naturally heard of it.

He smiled and nodded, "Of course I've heard of it, but it's too far away from Kang Country, we haven't been there before."

The reason why he answered so indifferently was because he knew that Li Yun, with his age and identity, could not have been to Egypt.

So he believed that Li Yun couldn't hold back his words.

However, Li Yun continued: "I see. It seems that Mr. Asak doesn't know much about aesthetics. Have you never seen the world-famous pyramids in Egypt and the Sphinx?"

"I...has your Highness seen it?"

"I've seen it, and I can draw it for you."

Of course, Li Yun has seen it in his previous life, but he has not seen it in this life, but he can say that he has seen pyramids and sphinxes painted by others.

Asak snorted softly, but didn't answer.

Li Yun continued: "Has Mr. Asak been to Rome?"

"No."

"So that's why you don't know about Stonehenge in England?"

Asak had never heard of such a place as England, he frowned slightly, "Did your Highness ever go there?"

"I haven't been there, but I have seen Stonehenge, and I can also draw it for you. This is a very famous place in Rome."

England was a territory of Rome in the early years, so it is not wrong to say that England is a place of Rome.

Li Yun continued: "Okay, let's not talk about distant places, Mr. Asak has been to Tianzhu, hasn't he?"

"Yes, I have been to Tianzhu, what's the matter?"

Asak doesn't like the way Li Yun talks to him.

In the past, he was the one who said it, and others were shocked and sighed, but just now it was Li Yun who said it, and he was like a fool, knowing nothing.

Li Yun smiled and said: "Since you have been to Tianzhu, has Mr. Asak been to the Pagoda of Ten Thousand Buddhas?"

This is a scenic spot in India, but it was destroyed later, but it is recorded in history books.

It's just that this Ten Thousand Buddhas Pagoda is located in the southwestern part of India, which is close to Nepal.

Li Yun believes that Asak has been to India, but it should be in the north of Tianzhu, not the southwest.

Because there are hundreds of countries in Tianzhu at this time, he rushed all the way, fearing that the taxes would pay him poorly.

Sure enough, Asak showed doubts on his face. He had actually heard of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Pagoda, but had not seen it.

Li Yun laughed, "Although Mr. Asak is older than me, he may not necessarily have more knowledge than me. I doubt Mr. Asak's aesthetics."

This is what Asak meant to Li Yun just now, and Li Yun returned it to him as a precedent.

Asak smiled wryly and shook his head, and then said: "Your Highness knows a lot, but Your Highness, as the Han people say, there is specialization in art."

"We were originally doing performances. We know what people like and how to perform to make people happy."

He raised his head proudly, "Does Your Highness know? Has Your Highness had relevant experience?"

This is the truth. After all, people eat this bowl of rice and know the depth of it.

They also know what the common people like, and they have this advantage.

Li Yun nodded, "Mr. Asak is right, I agree with what Mr. Asak said."

"However, I have very strong self-confidence. My program can shock the common people. Not only the common people like it, but also the dignitaries."

"Not only children like it, but adults and elderly people like it too."

"Even Mr. Asak likes it, maybe he will buy some from me then."
