Datang Nongsheng

Chapter 150

The matter of Xi Junmai bringing a woman back is not complicated. When he was bored at sea, Xuanzang told Xi Junmai and a group of boatmen some Buddhist stories. The Buddha preached the scriptures, and the story of paving the ground with gold bricks in the Lonely Garden, Xi Jun believed it to be true. After he went ashore, he wanted to find this Solitary Garden and dig some gold bricks back.

Who would have imagined that in Tianzhu, there are many schools of Buddhism. Before he found the Dugu Garden, he encountered an evil thing first, that is, many women who were about to get married were gathered in temples and had sex with monks. In that temple, there are many monks whose job is to break the barrier in the body for girls, which is really the happiest job in the world.

Xuanzang said that this school has gone on the wrong path. After Xi Junmai learned about it, he felt that it was absurd, so he snatched those young girls from the Buddhist temple, so as not to die. He didn't know those Tianzhu The veil of a woman cannot be lifted easily, no, twelve women from Tianzhu became his wives, and one of them is the daughter of a king in Tianzhu, which is equivalent to a princess.

"Hehe, it must be fun to have twelve wives at once!" After learning what happened, Sun Xiangfu said with a smile.

"You can only know how it feels when you are married." Xi Junmai said with an expression that you don't understand, and then began to introduce his wife to Sun Xiangfu.

"Her name is very long, but it seems to have an ending of Dai in it, so I called her Dai'er. She is the daughter of King Farabhi and the princess of the Kingdom of Farabhi." Xi Junmai pointed to one of them. A young girl with the most luxurious clothes and the fairest skin said.

"Warnabi Kingdom?"

"Uh, it's the country we landed in. This country is near the sea, and the land is probably not as big as Lingnan."

At this time, King Jieri of the Tianzhu Kingdom had not yet launched an attack on several coastal kingdoms. There were many kingdoms in the entire West Asia region. The sun king is gone.

Sun Xiangfu didn't even know much about the history of the Central Plains during this period, let alone the history of India, so he didn't worry about where it was. He only knew that this Princess Dai might help him obtain stable supplies along the coast of the Indian Ocean. He looked at his face a few more times.

"I really want to know, how can such a dignified princess marry you so easily, and also follow you to our Tang Dynasty?" Sun Xiangfu asked curiously.

"This is very simple. I knocked down the number one warrior in their country with three punches, and Master Xuanzang held a sutra debate meeting with local Buddhists on the second day in the Kingdom of Varnabi. Having nothing to say, they worshiped him one after another, and were later called the real Buddha by those big-eared monks.

And I, because I beat those bad monks who deceived women from good families, I was regarded by them as the angry-eyed King Kong in front of the Buddha. You don’t know that I was able to walk sideways in the Wangcheng of Varnabi in just a few days. When they saw me, they all bowed down to me, and handed over the bad guys to me for punishment. "Xi Junmai said very proudly.

"It seems that where you lingered so much that you came back so many days late."

"No, no, no, that place is not fun at all, the people are stupid to death, they can't understand the words, they can't figure it out by nodding and shaking their heads, it's hard to communicate with them, I stayed there for a few days because of what Master Xuanzang was going to do During the ceremony, it seemed that he had a party with some sects again, and I was asked to protect him for a few days. Later, the trouble was resolved, but the three masters of Shaolin Temple felt that the situation there was too complicated, so they stayed there.

In addition, I also bought a lot of good things along the way. Don't I have twelve wives to support, and I need to earn more money. "

As he said that, Xi Junmai waved to the dozen or so veiled women surrounding them, and they stepped aside one after another. Only then did Sun Xiangfu walk into the cabin of the Happiness to look at the things inside.

"Smells of spice."

As soon as he walked into the entrance of the second storey, Sun Xiangfu smelled a strong smell.

"Well, it's the spice for barbecue. I remember that Wangjianglou barbecue also uses this spice. It doesn't seem cheap."

"It's hard to buy a catty of this thing in Chang'an, but it's worth it. How much did you get?" Sun Xiangfu opened several of the big cloth bags, took out a handful to check the quality, there were cinnamon, some Ding Xiang, and Xin Xiang nodded in satisfaction.

"The entire second-floor warehouse is full, at least three or four thousand stones!"

Xi Junmai was overjoyed when he heard that one catty could be sold for ten thousand dollars.These three or four thousand stones are five or sixty thousand catties, which is worth tens of thousands of ounces.

"What else is down here?"

While still in the second storey, Sun Xiangfu saw Zhao Gang who had not removed his armor at the door of the lower storey, as if he was guarding something.

"You'll know it after you've seen it."

Seeing that Mr. Xi smiled very much, Sun Xiangfu knew that there should be better things down there.

"Day, how much gold is this?"

Although only a small oil lamp was lit in the warehouse on the ground floor, the reflected metal light almost blinded Sun Xiangfu.

"This is a high-purity gold ore. After a little smelting, it will become gold. Look at this piece of dog-head gold, at least [-]% of the gold is in it. This time, we took four or five thousand stones of gold ore. , You do the math, how much gold can be refined."

No matter in any era, gold is a relatively valuable precious metal. In the Tang Dynasty, one tael of gold was worth about ten guan, but Xi Junmai actually said that there were four to five thousand stones on board with gold ore with a gold content of [-]%. There are about three thousand stones of gold on board.

More than 6000 catties of gold? 36 taels?Worth 360 million guan?Datang's annual tax revenue is not so much now!
"You, you, you, you have never brought so much gold ore." Even Sun Xiangfu, who had no idea about money, stuttered a little at this time, pointing to Mr. Xi to buy.

"Hey, it's nothing. They just robbed the treasury of a small country along the coast. It is said that they have saved it for several years!" Xi Junmai said even more embarrassingly when he saw Sun Xiangfu's expression.

"Why are you still in the robbery business?"

"No way, those natives didn't give us water supplies, and they wanted to force us to take the food on board. As soon as we went ashore with full armor, they were defeated. The little king led hundreds of people to fight us, and we beat them three times five times. Half of the divisors were killed, and he surrendered on the ground. I went to their palace and found that these gold mines were valuable, so I moved back.

By the way, there are still some shiny stones. I don’t know if the diamonds you mentioned before have all been taken back and pressed down by the gold mine. "

"Quick, find it out and let me have a look." Sun Xiangfu said a little excitedly.

After working for a long time, the shiny stones in the cloth bag were turned out. However, Sun Xiangfu was disappointed. The shiny stones that Xi Junmai said were not diamonds, but crystal ores, and they were very high-purity crystal ores. , almost transparent, thinking about Sun Xiangfu is also clear, they did not go to the African continent, but they also know that even in Africa, there are not enough diamonds to be packed in sacks.

"How is it? Is it a diamond?" Xi Junmai asked when he saw Sun Xiangfu's disappointed eyes and felt something was wrong.

Sun Xiangfu shook his head and replied, "No, this is just a high-purity crystal ore. Although the value is not as high as diamonds, it is not worse than gold, and it is very useful to me. Use these crystal ores to make some magical things, and I will give you one when the time comes."

There are several big bags of crystal ore, and it is not difficult to burn some concave-convex lenses out. Mounting this simple telescope on a sextant can improve its accuracy. In addition, making a magnifying glass out, in many cases, It is helpful to Sun Xiangfu's plant research.

"You say it's amazing, it must be a very interesting thing. In addition, how to distribute these things, we all agree that it is most suitable for you to decide. Except for the members of the escort team, even the boatmen don't know about these things in the bottom warehouse. something!"

There are actually not many boatmen on the Happiness. They are mainly responsible for sailing, steering, and emergency repairs. They are all sent by Zhang Gongjin. Fresh water was gone, and later, Zhao Gang and several people were specially assigned to guard the bottom storehouse in shifts. Therefore, even if the boatmen went back and knew what was loaded on the ship, they only knew what was inside.

"Well, you did a good job on this point. If others find out about this gold, it may be a disaster rather than a blessing. Without ships like ours, people who go to sea to pan for gold will die. However, since everyone brought them back Things, even if they are shared by everyone, I only need to take one of them, and hide them in Lingnan first, and then smelt them later, the brothers in the guard team are all rich."

It is worth more than 300 million guan. Even if it is divided equally among more than 300 guards, each person can share more than 1 guan. I believe that with such a relationship of interest, everyone's loyalty to Sun Xiangfu will be raised several levels. Who will be the guard? Can be rich?

Therefore, Wei Shuxie and the others, who thought they would be able to set off for Chang'an immediately after the happiness came back, were detained by Sun Xiangfu for a few days under the pretext of Mr. Xi, waiting for Xi Junbuy and the guards to put those golden bumps in front of Feng An. After digging a hole in Sun Xiangfu's agarwood forest, many ships filled with fresh fruits and food gathered in Guangzhou Port.

"I'll send you off to the public far away."

"Take care along the way."

"When my son arrives in Chang'an, he will definitely convey the many sentiments of Lingnan people to His Majesty..."

Words similar to parting were spoken on the pier for a long time.

The people in Lingnan spontaneously held a grand farewell ceremony at the pier, showing the hearts of the people in Lingnan to the court envoys. Of course, it was actually more of a thank you to Sun Xiangfu.

It is precisely because of his arrival that hundreds of people in Lingnan who would have been killed by pot belly disease this year have survived. Moreover, it is not known how many people will be cured in the future. The people are simple and honest. They will remember who they are and treat them well. Even in Feng An's heart, he feels that the tens of thousands of acres of land in Baiyun Lake and a few hills full of nanmu agarwood are not enough to express the Lingnan people's love for them. Thanks to Sun Xiangfu.

Wei Shuxie and Li Gongyan are only in the honor of Sun Xiangfu. Of course, they on the bow of the boat are smiling happily. This time they patrolled Lingnan on behalf of the sky, and they have made a lot of credit. They should be rewarded when they go back, and salute with Feng Ang After saying goodbye, they pretended to wave at the bow of the boat to the Lingnan people who saw them off, making a look of reluctance. They didn't know how sincere they were, but Sun Xiangfu felt that there was more to show.

They also boarded the boat with Feng Zhidai, father and daughter Ashan, and two elephant cubs, Xiaohei and Xiaoye. They all felt that the happiness was more stable and the cabin was more comfortable.

The rooms that originally belonged to the ten craftsmen brought by Sun Xiangfu were given to them. The craftsmen were left in Lingnan by Sun Xiangfu to temporarily guide the techniques of Feng An's workshops. Long, Zhao Gang and twenty guards, they will be stationed on the Baiyun Lake peninsula, and conduct a series of training for the young and strong recruited from Shen Tuyong's place and various Lingnan ministries.

　Thanks for the reward and posting support of 91. . .This is true love, I received it, thank you!
