"Luxury item?!"
Everyone was floored. They looked at Zhao Liangying in amazement, then followed by excited screams.
"Ah—luxury item!" Chen Meijia darted forward and glued her eyes on Zhao Liangying's bag. She stared at it as though it was some rare treasure, wanting to touch it yet reluctant to at the same time.
"I've always dreamed of buying a luxury item for myself. Who would've known that our country would come up with its own luxury item!?" Meijia gripped her fists excitedly.
"Please wipe the saliva from the corner of your mouth. Don't let it stain this magical item." Lu Xiaobu quickly tore Chen Meijia away as his eyes glossed over and started daydreaming.
"If I had this bag, wouldn't that make me undefeated on the battlefield of love?"
"Can I touch it?" Hu Yifei was a lot more straightforward. She placed her jade-like hand on the bag, then immediately displayed a blissful expression. "Wah, this feeling...it's too wonderful. With this bag in hand, how can the others compare?"
"I want to touch it too!" Wanyu and Meijia immediately joined in. They then exclaimed in astonishment, "It's so cooling. It feels just like jade."
"I don't think our country has a luxury item brand yet, right? This is pioneering work!" Chen Chichi exclaimed.
"That's right. Moreover, it's not just an ordinary luxury item. This bag has gone on the international stage!" Zhao Liangying's petite face was flushed all the while. She hugged the bag tightly, unwilling to let it go. "Murica, England, Sun Nation, Deutschland, Stick Nation, and so on. 15 countries acknowledged this bag's status as a luxury item! This is like a dream!"
"Damn, if this keeps up, the other countries will follow along and acknowledge this bag's status as well. This is fantastic!" Lu Xiaobu's eyes went wide, exclaiming in astonishment.
"Didn't you know? Just this afternoon, the news of this bag has already gone viral. A lot of countries are fighting for it, trying to get more supplies to their own country!" Zhao Liangying continued. "There are only 800 such bags and 300 sets! Furthermore, our country is keeping 60 bags and 60 sets for itself. The other countries can only share the leftovers! Hahaha, the scene is just grand!"

Everyone took out their phones. Earlier, they were all being lectured by Ye Lingchen and could not look at their phones. This news was very eye-catching and was pushed by all the major media platforms. They did not have to look for it specifically.
Even the authoritative National News Network was pushing this incident heavily. That was a moment of glory.
The most eye-catching title was [Birth of China's first luxury item! Astounding the globe! It was immediately listed as world-class, leading to countries fighting for it!]
Below it was a flood of countless comments.
[China is growing stronger. Ahhh, I'm so excited!]
[Hahaha, when I traveled overseas, the exclusive stores were only selling luxury items from other countries. This time it's our turn to shine!]
[F*ck, Vatti made its statement that this is their independent department. Its codename is Y! Ahhh, I feel that the world of luxury items is about to face a bloody storm.]
[Previous post, your feelings are right.]
[Sob sob sob, I'm crying. I'm really crying. I feel so proud. Say no more, I'll have to show my support even if I have to sell my assets!]
[Previous post, are you joking? The price is only RMB 40 thousand. Do you need to sell your assets? Damn it, do you know how many people are queuing up to buy it?!]
[I'm right in the middle of the f*cking queue. There are already over 10 thousand registered buyers. If you include the sets, that's only a quota of 220 items!]
[I just want to say, please give me a chance to sell my assets!]
[Now that we've finally got a luxury item, I strongly request for more production. We will support you with all we have!]
[Previous post, be content. Our country is already given the highest allocation. The other countries are even worse. There's a whatchamacallit country of Britania that was only given two bags. Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter…]

[Go look at the international site. Some countries are flaming each other to get the quota. It's so funny. I just want to say that China is awesome!]
[Begging for the international site address. I want to watch!]
…
On the international site…
Sun Nation Luxury Item Hub: [We urge China to give us equal treatment. You reserved the largest quota for your own country. This is unfair! Most importantly, why did our country only get five bags? This is blatant discrimination!]
Stick Nation Luxury Item Hub: [Sun Nation is right. We're not convinced!]
Murica Luxury Item Hub: [Our country should be given the same quota as China!]
Fresh Country 1Luxury Item Hub: [Why does our country have no allocation at all?! What's the meaning of this? Please show us some love!]
Apart from those countries, the residents from other countries were joining along.
[Oh my god, China has their own luxury item? Is god joking with us?]
[Is this for real? This bag looks rather plain. What's wrong with the appraisers? They must've taken bribes from the Chinese people!]
[This is favoritism. Let's boycott Chinese luxury items!]
[That's right. We don't want those Chinese items. Go away!]
[F*ck, previous posters are like a pack of rabid dogs. Do you think we want to send those items out? Please return them!]
[You best send them all back. I'll buy them all up!]
[This is our country's moment of glory. Bump!]
[Foreign dogs, go eat sh*t!]
…
The birth of China's luxury item out of the blue instantly sent the entire internet boiling with excitement. Chinese felt proud, howling out loudly as though they were wolves. They badly wanted to buy one just to show off.
The foreigners were instead filled with vulgarities, showing their extreme dissatisfaction. That caused the Chinese and foreigners on the internet to be caught in verbal warfare. Both sides were having difficulties due to the language barrier. However, that did not stop them. They were verbally assaulting each other while looking up what their opponents said. The exchange went on for a long time.
"Lingchen, thank you so much. I love this gift very much. This is the best gift I've received! I love you to death!" Zhao Liangying's beautiful eyes were glowing, smiling like a kid as she said that.
Although she knew the bag made from the giant python's skin would be given to her, she never expected this bag to be symbolic of such a great change in the times.
At the moment she received her bag, she and Hu Yue'er posted on Weibo at the same time, showing off their selfie with the bag. It immediately attracted admiring stares from countless fans and a great amount of likes.
Ye Lingchen rubbed his nose and remained silent. He clearly felt that something was wrong with Xiao Feifei's mood. She did not speak a single word, causing the atmosphere to turn quite a bit colder.
Ye Lingchen looked at Xiao Feifei, just to see her staring at him. Her eyes were filled with resentment.
"Sister Feifei, I've prepared one for you as well. I believe you should be receiving it soon," Ye Lingchen chuckled awkwardly as he stated. At the same time, he secretly took note of this fumble. Next time, he must make careful considerations when he has something good to share. He would first save a portion and make sure not to play favorites…
This is most likely a pseudonym for North Korea.

Making friends and learning to harness to power of magic, he maintains his commitment to his prior duty and proceeds to fight against corruption, both on a political front and against what is known as the shade.(Note, this story focuses on action and adventure, so politics are not in depth) This has been my first novel, which was primarilly inteded as a learning experience, and so it may be a bit rough in regards, but it should definitely be readable and it is a full story.
