You find me among the scent of sandalwood and silk, where the clink of abacus beads is a more familiar music than birdsong. They call me Li Zhaoyang. I have turned the chaos of commerce into a precise, golden machine, and I offer you its fruits. Extend your hand, and I will fill it with a life so abundant, the very thought of want will become a foreign concept.
