"Um?"

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was full of excitement, was stunned for a while before he realized.

Zhou Dexing, this kid, became arrogant in front of us.

At the same time, I was even more curious.

"Okay, Zhou Dexing, you dare to keep us in a silence. It seems that you have become much more courageous when you go out this time!"

"Tell us quickly. How many difficult goods have you sold? How many rare treasures have you exchanged for?"

"Your Majesty, you've sold them all!"

Zhou Dexing grinned, pressed his excitement tightly, and said.

"All sold? How much money did you sell in total?"

"Your Majesty, it's all on the boat. Please take a look at it!"

After saying that, Zhou Dexing looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with anticipation.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhou Dexing again, and the curiosity in his eyes was even more intense.

"I'm going to lead the way. We want to know even more when you show off."

"Here!!"

He bowed his hand with excitement on his face, and Zhou Dexing quickly led the way.

With the help of Erhu, Zhu Yuanzhang followed the deck and headed to the boat.

Behind him, Zhu Biao, Zhu Zi'an, Li Shanchang and other ministers also followed with curiosity.

Arrived on the boat.

Zhou Dexing walked straight into the cabin skillfully.

Behind him, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao and others quickly followed.

"Hiss~"

"so much?"

"Zhou Dexing, is this true?"

As soon as he entered the cabin, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao, Zhu Zi'an and others felt that their eyes were shining and could not be opened.

The entire cabin is full of golden colors.

After calming down, everyone couldn't help but take a breath.

Here are all pieces of gold of all sizes, and the entire cabin is shining with golden light.

As he said that, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but pick up a piece of gold and bit it hard with his teeth.

There is a row of shallow tooth marks!

It's golden!

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang looked around and his face was even more excited.

"Back to the emperor, the entire cabin is filled with gold!"

Zhou Dexing looked proud and showed off: "The cabins of the nine big ships are filled with gold!"

"There are so much gold in the cabin of the nine big ships behind?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked disbelief.

Behind, Zhu Biao, Zhu Zi'an and others also stared at Zhou Dexing with shock.

With so much gold, you are afraid that you have robbed all the barbarians in Southeast Asia.

"We will never dare to deceive the emperor!"

Zhou Dexing was very satisfied with the expressions of Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao and others.

"Let's go and see it!"

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang went straight to the nine big ships behind.

Half an hour later.

Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao and others only finished watching nine large ships.

Everyone was exhausted and panting, but their eyes were extremely excited.

How many of the ten large ships are loaded with so much gold?

"Five million taels of gold!"

Zhu Biao's expression was still a little shocked at the bow of the ship.

"It's less!"

On the side, Zhu Yuanzhang slowly shook his head and said, then looked at Zhou Dexing, who was full of arrogant faces beside him.

"Hehe, Your Highness, you are all young, and you have a total of 12 million taels of gold!"

Zhou Dexing grinned and kept smiling.

"We count these golds one by one, with a total of more than 12 million taels of gold. Each cabin has one million taels of gold, which is exactly ten large ships!"

"As for the jewelry that the barbarians have exchanged for, we have placed them on other big ships!"

"There are other jewelry?"

Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao and others were surprised again.

“This is nature.”

Zhou Dexing looked at Zhu Yuanzhang in confusion and said, "Gold is the most valuable, so let's take the gold first and let the emperor see it. There are more than fifty ships of various overseas jewelry and specialties outside. I think it's too crowded here and can't put down so many ships, so I let them wait outside now.

Wait until tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and then I will give it to the emperor."

As he said that, Zhou Dexing seemed to remember something and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, there is also a box of treasures, which are also placed here. I forgot it for you, so I will get it!"

Immediately, Zhou Dexing walked into the cabin.

After a while, he hugged a delicate box with a happy face.

Then, under the curious eyes of Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao and others, they opened it.

Another dazzling white light.

After their eyes were adapted, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Zi'an and others could see clearly the objects in the small box.

A small, crystal clear stone the size of a thumb.

"Is this diamond?"

After looking carefully for a while, Zhu Biao's eyes lit up, and then his face was full of excitement.

“Diamond?”

"This appearance seems to be as rumored, it must be diamond!"

"I didn't expect that there would be so many diamonds that are rare in daily life?"

Suddenly, Zhu Yuanzhang, Li Shanchang and others were all excited.

"Zhou Dexing, where did you get so much diamond?"

"Back to the emperor, these are all kings of Mantaga. I respect the spectacular momentum of our Ming merchant ships, and I gave them to the ministers!"

As he said that, Zhou Dexing couldn't help but look proud. Then, without waiting for Zhu Biao and others to react, he looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with a flattering face.

"However, I heard that diamonds are extremely noble, only you, the emperor, are qualified to have them. Therefore, we will give you filial piety!"

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled faintly, "You are really interested."

"Hehe, thank you for your praise, this is all my duty!" Zhou Dexing looked happy.

Looking at Zhu Biao, Zhu Zi'an and others beside him, he couldn't help but shivered.

Too disgusting!

"Your Majesty, these are the books of the officials who traded overseas with barbarians, and exchanged them for all the gold, treasures and specialties."

Then, Emperor Shengzong of Tang took over a book that was more than one foot high and placed it in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao and others.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang picked it up, turned it open, glanced slightly, and nodded in satisfaction.

It is better to say it is an account book than a diary.

Inside, it starts from going to sea to bypass Ryukyu.

Every day, where you go, how long you sail, how many miles you have traveled, how many cargo you have exchanged, or how many local barbarians admire the Ming fleet and respect the gold and treasures you have filial to.

It can be seen how boring the person who wrote this account book is.

“Very good.”

Then, Zhu Yuanzhang changed his head and looked at the Erhu beside him.

"Arranging people and transporting all the gold to the treasure house in the palace!"

"Here!"

Erhu hurriedly replied.

Immediately, he quickly arranged a group of eunuchs in the palace.

With so much gold, the price is much more valuable than the tens of thousands of taels of silver in the Ministry of Revenue, and there is no sloppyness.

Therefore, soon, the people of Nanjing City saw soldiers covered in armor transporting heavy carriages from the Nanjing City Wharf to the palace.

Shipped for one day!
