Chapter 2518 Nitroglycerin tablets are ready to prevent His Majesty from drawing them
Even Grandpa Huang was communicating with Cheng Sanlang with a smile on his face.
This made Li Zhi, who was calm on the surface, couldn't help but feel envious and jealous. What he envied was that Cheng Sanlang was indeed a rare and talented person in the world.
What makes him jealous is that his father and grandpa treat him like a nephew and even make fun of him.
And when I face my father and grandpa, I have to think over and over again and prepare a good draft before meeting.
Even every word spoken by his father, he had to ponder over and over again, for fear that he would make a mistake and make his father or grandpa displeased.
I'm afraid that even the eldest brother, His Royal Highness, would not dare to communicate with his father and grandpa like this...
Li Mingda on the side also came over. Although he was holding his arm on his father's arm, his bright smile was facing Cheng Sanlang.
Li Shimin, who was chatting and laughing and in a good mood, changed his tone.
"You asked me and the emperor to come here. I'm afraid it's not just here to praise you, right?"
"My father-in-law is wise. In fact, my son-in-law has a very happy event that I want to report to my father-in-law."
Having said this, Cheng Chubi couldn't help but chuckle a few times in cooperation.
Li Shimin subconsciously turned his head and glanced at Li Mingda, then glanced at Cheng Sanlang, a little suspicious.
That expression made Cheng Sanlang feel confused. What does the father-in-law's reaction mean?
He quickly moved two steps to the side, whispered into the ear of his father-in-law.
"My father-in-law, this is a big happy event related to my income in the Tang Dynasty."
"Is there another increase in annual income?" Li Shimin was a little confused, so, well, it seems it's not the big happy event he thought.
Cheng Chubi smiled and reached into his arms, took out a small wooden box, took out a document from it and handed it over respectfully.
"Yes, please ask my father-in-law to take a look at this confirmation letter..."
Li Shimin took it in his hand with confusion and looked at it for a few times, then his face gradually became serious.
"What does this mean? The Japanese governor of Yuezhou admitted that the Yellow Bird Island is not the territory of the Japanese country, and the Han and Tang merchants can handle it on their own."
"Exactly, at that time, our trading fleet between the Han and Tang Dynasties was traveling on a vast sea.
The sailors were hungry and thirsty, and then they saw a very beautiful bird with yellow feathers landing on the bow of the ship and singing..."
Seeing Cheng Sanlang telling a bizarre story vividly and energetically, everyone was instantly attracted to the story.
However, His Majesty the Supreme Emperor, who had heard this story before, was not happy that a loophole appeared repeatedly in his ears, and couldn't help but complain.
"You kid, there are no birds with feathers. If you have the ability, go catch one and show me."
In an instant, several members of the Li family made noises, and Cheng Chubi's face darkened. He thought, "Forget it, I won't argue with this old man who has no martial ethics."
Continue to stir up emotions and tell this touching story. Fortunately, this unruly emperor did not show any evil intentions again.
Following Cheng Chubi's narration, the crew members, who were about to be ravaged by the storm, came to a deserted island under the guidance of the yellow bird.
On that island, after escaping a terrible storm, the crew was surprised to find that there was a natural harbor here.
The tall ships of the Tang Dynasty could easily dock here.
Moreover, there is fresh water on the island, and there is also a plain that can be used for farming. It is just suitable for the ships of the Han and Tang Dynasties to stop on their long journeys.
Later, after the crew members of the Han and Tang Dynasty merchants rested here, they went to sea again. Later they found that this place was not too far from the Japanese country.
But this island does not belong to the Japanese country, but is a desert island without ownership, so the crew named the island after the auspicious yellow bird.
The Supreme Emperor Li Yuan on the side continued to watch the excitement downstairs with a smile. He had no choice but to accept the surprise two days ago.
This is also the reason why the Supreme Emperor rushed over so early in the morning to support this boy Cheng Sanlang.
As for His Highness the Crown Prince, he already knew something about it from Brother Chu Bi, but he still didn't quite understand what the specific situation was.
The only ones who really don't understand anything are probably Li Shimin and his wife, and the King of Jin Li Zhi who boldly jumped over and forced his way in.
At this moment, Li Zhi tried hard to hold his ears open, wanting to understand what was going on.
Li Shimin looked up and down at Cheng Sanlang, who had just laughed lewdly and had a very mysterious expression.
Suppressing his impatience, he shook the confirmation letter in his hand, his balls ached.
"Since it is a deserted island, what is the reason for this thing?"
"The father-in-law may not know that according to the international practice of first come first served, whoever finds out belongs to whom.
This uninhabited island was discovered by the Han and Tang Dynasty merchants in our Tang Dynasty."
As the rich Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, when Li Shimin heard these words, his expression suddenly looked a little disgusting and he curled his lips.
What do you mean? Who do you look down on? Is this the kind of person who needs these three melons and two dates? Let alone a deserted island, so what if it is an island with products?
"...What do you mean, kid, that the island now belongs to me, the Tang Dynasty?"
"Yes, the Jinshan on this island also belongs to me, the Tang Dynasty."
Cheng Chubi nodded, stretched out his big palm toward his father-in-law, then squeezed it tightly, and smiled proudly again.
"Hmm, hmm?!" Li Shimin looked at Cheng Sanlang in front of him, and subconsciously reached out to pick his ears, but he managed to control himself halfway and turned the scratching into a caress.
He glanced at everyone present. Well, they are all a family, so it doesn't matter.
"Please explain it clearly to me, what is Jinshan?"
"It means that at least one hundred thousand taels of gold can be mined in a year, and a mountain of gold can be mined for at least a thousand years."
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a loud clang, which made the entire Li family tremble in fright.
Li Zhi hurriedly picked up the tea bowl that had fallen on the floor and put it back on the table, but he couldn't hide the look of shock on his face.
Li Shimin raised his hand and gently placed it on his heart, feeling that his heart was pounding like a deer at this moment.
My brain was buzzing and my pupils were dilated, and then I heard Cheng Sanlang's low voice.
"Uncle Zhao, hurry up, get the nitroglycerin tablets ready to prevent His Majesty from taking them..."
As soon as he heard these words, Li Shimin woke up from his trance and glared at Cheng Sanlang fiercely.
Forget it, forget it, although what this bastard said didn't sound good, at least he looked gleaming today, and he was very pleasing to the eye, like a good-luck boy.
The rich Lord of the Tang Dynasty couldn't help but greedily raised his fingers and muttered softly.
"One thousand years... Jinshan... one hundred thousand taels? That's one million guans a year?"
