"Xianggong, it's time to get up~"

Xu Wan'er pushed Liu Jin, who was still sleeping, he was already in his third day, and he was still sleeping.

"What kind of bed do you get, you don't have to go to the morning court, come, come, exercise in the morning~"

Liu Jin followed his hand and pulled it gently, pulling Xu Wan'er into his arms at once.

It's winter, the weather is getting colder and colder, it's still comfortable in the bed, anyway, there is no need to go to court, Liu Jin sleeps lazy almost every day.

"Xianggong ~ Don't ~ "

Xu Wan'er's face flushed, of course she knew what Liu Jin was talking about in the morning exercise, this would be embarrassing, in broad daylight, there were maids waiting outside.

"It's all old husbands and wives, what are you shy~"

Liu Jin moved very dishonestly, which made Xu Wan'er blush even more.

"Xianggong, the governor of Ceylon of the Western United Trading House is going to present a treasure to His Majesty today, haven't you explained it, you are going to participate."

Xu Wan'er collapsed in Liu Jin's arms and said breathlessly.

"The Governor of Ceylon is returning to Beijing?"

When Liu Jin heard this, he quickly stopped, and then the whole person immediately came to his senses, kissed Xu Wan'er and said, "I'll clean you up at night." ”

After speaking, he hurriedly got up, got dressed, and hurriedly walked to the palace after breakfast.

Suzaku Street runs through the north and south of the capital, and the Imperial Palace is located in the north.

At this time, the streets of Suzaku Street were crowded with people, and the alleys were empty, and the old and young masters of the whole capital braved the cold to come out to see the excitement, because today the governor of Ceylon arrived in the capital, and very officially presented the treasures from Ceylon to the Son of Heaven.

I saw Hu Xian wearing the governor's uniform issued by the Ming court, well, it is considered to be the second grade, of course, there is only a grade on the Ming side, and there is no salary, nor any real power, it is an honor given by the great tomorrow.

Hu Xian, who was dressed in a crimson robe, raised his head and straightened his waist, walking with a tiger.

As I walked, I sighed at the same time.

I think that at the beginning, he was just a small imperial history, a five-grade petty official, and later because of a trivial matter, Hongzhi was put back to his hometown to care for the elderly.

I have given up the idea of being an official, and I am afraid that there is no hope of being able to wear this second-grade clothes in this life.

But who knew that he had conquered the island of Ceylon overseas, and the Western United Trading House also publicly recommended him to be the first governor of Ceylon, and the court recognized it and issued him a court dress of the second grade.

I have to sigh, life experiences are really unpredictable.

Hu Xian walked at the front of the huge team, followed by Hu Xian and the treasure boys, all of whom were holding a box in their hands, each containing a huge top exquisite gem.

Sapphires, rubies, violets...... Gemstones of various colors, exquisitely beautiful and very large, reflect the enchanting light of the winter sun.

The crowd of onlookers around couldn't help but widen their eyes, and many of the rich ladies who watched upstairs instantly fell in love with this charming color.

Walking in the front of the pair of treasure boys, the gems in the box are the size of a thick bowl, crystal clear, pure, and two very rare sapphires.

These two sapphires alone are priceless and priceless, and they are not at all measured by money.

There are ninety-nine pairs of treasure boys, side by side, holding all kinds of gems in their hands, this is a special product of Ceylon, laid down the island of Ceylon, the Western United Firm obtained a large number of gems on the island of Ceylon, after careful selection, selected the best batch of gems to the Hongzhi Emperor.

After the treasure boys, there are two rows of treasure fairies, and these virgins are also holding boxes in their hands, and the boxes are not filled with precious stones, but all kinds of treasures brought back from the West.

The bright red coral, a few feet high, is also a priceless treasure; a pair of night pearls the size of a fist, three pairs of diamonds the size of pigeon's eggs, and six pairs of pearls the size of eggs; eight pieces of white tiger skins without a trace of stray hair; There are twelve pairs of long tusks......

"Wow~"

On the street, among the lively crowds, there were constant exclamations.

The old and young masters in the capital naturally have a lot of knowledge, and some people are constantly reading out the treasures one by one, and suddenly there are bursts of exclamations among the surrounding crowd.

Although the old and young masters are also knowledgeable people, the treasures offered by this Western United Commercial Company are all priceless things.

There are many things, which only the top elites and really rich people can have, and ordinary people don't even have the opportunity to see them once, let alone see them.

This time, it was this opportunity, and the governor of Ceylon directly put it out, so that the old and young masters in the capital could also be regarded as having a long experience.

After the treasure virgins, there are groups of treasure donors who carry the burden together.

The box is carried on both sides of the burden, and the mouth of the box is all open at this time, so that people can clearly see the contents inside.

At the forefront were boxes of gold, burdens filled with neat gold bars, which shimmered in the sunlight.

There are seventy-two people carrying the golden burden, and the golden burden is heavy, forming a charming golden landscape.

The golden burden was followed by the silver burden, and three hundred and sixty strong men carried the silver burden, and the silver light was shining, and the eyes of the shaking people were dazzled, and their eyes began to redden.

Behind the silver burden, there were rows of strong men carrying other things, cloth, silk, spices, birds of prey flying in the sky, beasts walking on the ground, seafood swimming in the water, and things that the Western Ocean had, the governor of Ceylon had tried his best to get some, and transported them to the capital for thousands of miles, dedicated to the Son of Heaven of the Ming Dynasty.

"Roar~"

At the back of the procession, there were carts and horses pulling iron cages containing all kinds of animals, three pairs of lions, two males and four females.

six pairs of tigers, four yellow-brown tigers, two white tigers; two leopards, one male and one female; Six elephants, wrapped in a thick quilt, it was too cold here in the capital, and the elephants seemed to be very uncomfortable.

Four black bears, twelve fox wolves, twelve golden macaques, two large lizards, eight large crocodiles, six large turtles, two pairs of brightly colored parrots, and four beautiful peacocks!

Looking at these animals, the old and young masters in the capital suddenly widened their eyes one by one, and it can be regarded as a great insight to see these strange animals.

Many animals have only been heard before, and no one has seen them, but this time, they have seen them all.

This time the treasure offering, the Western United Commercial Bank can be said to be very attentive, and it also took a lot of time to carefully prepare, from the distant island of Ceylon to transport these animals to the capital, and all of them are still taking care of the dragons and tigers, but also spent a lot of thought and financial resources.

"Tsk, that's the lion~ It's still a little different from the stone lion we carved."

"That's an elephant, it's really big enough, this ear is like a fan, and this nose is too long."

"Tiger, Leopard, Bear~"

The onlookers looked at all kinds of animals in the cage, and they were constantly discussing, everyone had curiosity, and the animals they had heard about before now saw with their own eyes, which felt completely different, not to mention that there were many animals that they had never heard of before, and it was a great experience.

The long procession stretches from the south side of Suzaku Street to the foot of the Imperial City.

In the square outside the Fengtian Hall, hundreds of military officials of the Chinese dynasty were present, and even Zhu Houzhao appeared here very rarely.

Of course, he was mainly attracted by the various beasts and rare birds offered by the Western United Trading House, and for him, all kinds of precious stones, gold and silver were not attractive, but those strange things were attractive.

"Lao Liu~"

Zhu Houzhao did not stand in line according to the position, but stood beside Liu Jin, he was already a little impatient to wait, so he also stabbed Liu Jin, ready to chat with Liu Jin.

"Your Highness~"

Liu Jin replied helplessly.

"Am I handsome when I drive a steam locomotive?"

Zhu Houzhao asked with some stinky fart.

"....handsome, very handsome~"

Liu Jin said speechlessly, many of the new words he said made this Zhu Houzhao learn, but if you think about it, people of this age like these things the most.

"Hehe, my father also praised me, saying that the steam harvester I researched was very useful, and said that he would reward me well, what do you say I want?"

Zhu Houzhao immediately raised his head slightly proudly, the steam harvester was indeed of great help to the agriculture of the Ming Dynasty, and Emperor Hongzhi also praised him very rarely, which made Zhu Houzhao happy to death.

"Your Highness can ask Your Majesty for those rare birds and beasts offered by the Western United Commercial Firm, Your Highness has always wanted to open an animal, and when the time comes, gather these animals together and build a zoo, and you can make a lot of money just by collecting tickets in the future."

Liu Jin thought about it and suggested, there is nothing else to do, this product is not needed at all, and he is not interested, maybe it is a good choice to let him take care of the animals.

It may also be a good idea to build a zoo and collect animals from all over the world, which can also give the old and young masters in the capital a long experience.

"Good idea, I've had that idea for a long time."

"But it's too out of place to call it a zoo, I think it's more appropriate to call it a leopard room."

Zhu Houzhao grinned and said, Liu Jin knew him too well, and he knew that he liked these animals and wanted to build a zoo.

Liu Jinye, who knows me.

"Leopard room?"

When Liu Jin heard this, he was slightly stunned, Zhu Houzhao in history died in the leopard house he built, this name is not auspicious.
