Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1374 Breaking the game

  Fang Jifan looked at his son who entered the academy.

  Fang Jifan nodded secretly in his heart.

   I have to say that Fang Zhengqing's growth made him gratified.

  Finally... this guy dared to talk back.

   Once upon a time, Fang Jifan was very annoyed by this boy who was submissive.

  Fang Jifan is such an unrivaled hero, he is willing to do good, and benefits the country and the people, but if he gave birth to such a worthless thing, do he have any face?

   Fortunately, this little guy has finally improved, at least he still has a temper.

   Do this, like yourself!

but…

   Getting angry with myself because of the family property, this...

   No matter.

   Don't think too much about it.

  Zhu Xiurong might be pregnant, but Fang Jifan dared not tell anyone.

   After all, it is Her Royal Highness, and the tests in this era are not very accurate. If it is just an oolong, Fang Jifan promises that His Majesty will strangle him to death.

  His Majesty asked me to seek medical treatment, but I still heard about it.

  Fang Jifan went back to his house and met Zhu Xiurong.

   Zhu Xiurong had joy on his face. Hearing from the doctor that he was suspected to be pregnant, he was walking freely before, but all of a sudden, he started to feel like he really had a baby in his stomach, and he even staggered when he walked.

   "Father told you to go again, I don't know what you said."

   "It's nothing, the main thing is to praise me." Fang Jifan said with a smile: "Sit down, don't stand up. Just now, I went to see Zhengqing. Zhengqing has grown taller and become a strong man."

   "He is inside, is it hard work?" Zhu Xiurong's motherhood was immediately aroused.

  Fang Jifan said: "Where is it that you don't work hard, if you don't work hard, your husband won't agree. I'm worried about Your Highness now, or let the doctors come and see."

   "I... I think I should have it. I feel like someone is kicking me in my stomach. It's naughty."

  Fang Jifan: "..."

  This is a bit of an insult to IQ. How old is this? I’ve already started kicking. If I’m pregnant for a few more months, won’t I be playing Wing Chun in my stomach?

Fang Jifan smiled wryly: "This may just be your Highness's illusion, self-suggestion, well, wait a little longer, after a while, if there is no...cough cough...then, it will be sure, and then I will go to the palace to announce the good news. Said Get up...our old Fang family is still very good, if you don't make a song, it will be a blockbuster."

Zhu Xiurong was happy, but smiled reservedly, and leaned slightly, wanting to snuggle up with Fang Jifan, but worried that his fetus would become angry, so he sat upright again: "From now on, I can't laugh, lest the child in my belly will learn badly." Now, don’t get angry, yes, I’m looking for the Four Books and Five Classics to read, the Four Books and Five Classics...have you learned it, my child?”

Seeing her serious appearance, Fang Jifan looked at Zhu Xiurong sincerely, and was silent for a long time: "I think...I read a casual book a few days ago, which is more suitable for her. The aftertaste is all in the book, not only that, it is full of stories of loyalty to the emperor and serving the country, family and country."

  Zhu Xiurong thought for a while: "If you don't read books, your eyes will be ruined. If a mother's eyes are ruined, the child's eyes will definitely not be good. I should clear my mind and eyesight, and read to this baby after he is born."

  Fang Jifan couldn't help but raised his thumb: "Your Highness really understands everything, and I admire you so much."

  …

   Keppel Port.

  Countless supplies were sent here by treasure ships, and a large amount of medicinal materials and grains were piled full of warehouses.

   Immediately afterwards, merchants from various countries were invited to send them to various countries.

  The new scholars from all over the world are all ecstatic.

  In order to encourage merchants to carry supplies, Siyang Commercial Bank took out a lot of coins.

   Not only that, but also donated a lot of money to temples in various countries, hoping that they can do their best to relieve the disaster.

  Siyang Commercial Bank also sent employees to the capitals of various countries to purchase grain.

  Liu Wenshan has already prepared a set of effective methods.

  Responsible to all of you, help the disaster.

  Chenla Kingdom.

   Phnom Penh City.

  A large number of merchants began to pour in, purchasing frantically.

   In addition, a large amount of food and medicines have been shipped, but it is still a drop in the bucket.

  The newly learned scholars have already arrived, received the supplies, and sent them to various places by car.

  The place where the disaster was severe was Angkor. People almost rented countless horses and horses and rushed towards the disaster area.

  The king of Chenla looked at the report sent by Siyang Trading Company.

  He just came back from the temple, begging the gods and Buddhas to protect the safety of the country, so he looked a little tired.

  The five ministers had already stood under the throne with their hands down.

  The ambitious king glanced at the ministers, squinted his eyes, and said calmly: "Siyang Commercial Bank's disaster relief is a righteous act."

   "But... Your Majesty, the servants think that this is Ming people trying to buy people's hearts."

  Gu Luozhi, one of the five ministers, was short in stature, but seemed worried.

"Of course the king knows." The king of Chenla nodded and nodded: "But... can we stop it? If we stop it, it would be a bad thing. Those new scholars, be careful. If they want to give relief, let them go. .”

   "In addition, they also donated a lot of money to the temple. There are also businessmen who have arrived in the capital and are still buying medicines and food for disaster relief."

   King Chenla's face fluctuated from joy to anger, and his eyes were puzzled: "What are they trying to do?"

"Your Majesty." Ran Duolou saw the king's wariness towards the Siyang Trading Company: "It seems that they just want to save people, but...we should also deal with it, and let people publicize the achievements of the king. Said... this is what the king begged from heaven, and it was given by heaven..."

   King Chenla seemed irritable: "Don't put your mind on this, I am thinking, they don't care about the cost, is it... really so willing?"

"this…"

The king of Chenla laughed suddenly: "Or, they just want to buy people's hearts. If that's the only way, this king doesn't have to worry about it. We are from Chenla, they are Han people, they don't understand the language, and they are of different races. Everything is just in vain, let them buy people's hearts now, and when things pass, just let people spread the news that some people don't respect gods and Buddhas, or that they secretly buy children and raise them as slaves, it will be enough to make them all in vain .”

   "As for the money sent back... At that time, I will buy more treasures from Daming. Counting it now, it will be of great benefit to me."

   "What the king said is absolutely true."

  The five ministers saluted one after another, and followed the King of Chenla, showing joy on their faces.

   "That's right." Ran Duolou remembered something: "In recent days, everything in the capital has gone up..."

   "The increase is good." The King of Chenla said: "There have been disasters over the years, and there are merchants hoarding their goods. There is nothing wrong with asking Ming people to pay a higher price to buy my products in Chenla."

  Rando Lou nodded.

  He was somewhat worried.

  Because of this increase, it is somewhat different compared with previous years.

  …

  In fact, prices in the entire Phnom Penh city have started to skyrocket.

   Not just food, but all commodities.

  Siyang Trading Co., for disaster relief, transferred countless Chenla coins from Curry.

  These coins were all purchased by the Chenla Kingdom at the beginning, and flowed into Siyang Trading Firms.

   These countless money-making companies are now frantically buying everything that can be bought in Chenla.

   And this flood of money making is actually flooding.

  At the beginning, the merchants in Chenla thought it was the disaster, and everyone was hoarding goods, but in just one day, the prices had skyrocketed to the highest level in the history of the disaster.

   On the first day, thirteen copper coins can buy a catty of grain.

   On the second day, thirty-three copper coins are needed.

   On the third day, there were seventy-five copper coins.

  Originally, six silver coins could be exchanged for a cow.

   And after a few days, someone was holding more than one hundred silver coins, and they couldn't even keep a single ox tail.

  Because... no one dares to sell anything anymore.

  The merchant who sold grain yesterday and thought he had made a fortune, holding a basket of gold and silver coins, couldn't help crying.

  Because, I thought I had earned a bargain yesterday, but it turned out that when the market opened, three catties of grain at yesterday’s price could not be exchanged for today’s price of one catty.

  Everyone was dumbfounded.

  This is an unprecedented situation.

  At the beginning.

  Because of the massive import of treasures.

   And as long as Zhenla makes money, you can buy treasures.

   This made the entire Chenla Kingdom immediately see huge business opportunities.

  From the government of the Chenla Kingdom to ordinary businessmen, taking advantage of this opportunity, both officials and people are making money.

   Not only official money is flooding, but private money is also flooding. This thing can be exchanged for real treasures.

  Baby goods, who doesn't like it.

As a result, the copper in the copper coins became less and less rare, and many people directly replaced them with iron; the silver was full of worthless lead and tin, as long as everything that could be faked was used to make money, it was countless. The money making in the Qing Dynasty did not have much impact on the Chenla Kingdom itself. Even these copper coins were still in circulation. Not only the Siyang Commercial Banks recognized the money making, but ordinary merchants also recognized the making money.

  After all...Although coins are flooding, there is a reservoir like Siyang Commercial Bank. Countless coins flowed into the Siyang Commercial Bank, and the money-making in Chenla did not overflow after all.

  But now it is different.

  When the coins in the cisterns of the Siyang Commercial Firms suddenly arrived in Chenla, people realized that there were so many coins in Chenla.

   Rare things are more expensive, this is an indestructible truth.

  And now... Once this thing becomes less rare, when people wake up, they realize that the things in their hands are actually a bunch of scrap metal.

   On the ninth day...

   When three hundred and twenty silver coins could not buy a single cow, the entire market was already in chaos.

  The merchants were about to cry, but they were desperately hoarding goods, but no one was willing to sell them.

   This kind of money, suddenly no one cares about it.

  Because no one knows to what extent this money-making will overflow tomorrow.
