Chapter 42, Du Mingen's determination

On the second floor of the Moon Tower, the lively people slowly dispersed, and it was already past the meal at this time, and the restaurant also became deserted.

However, Du Mingen and Emperor Hongzhi did not rush to leave, but re-ordered good tea and waited patiently.

"Liu Gongzi, in Xia Du Mingen, I am fortunate to be able to hear Childe's wonderful words today, it is really a blessing for three lives."

Seeing that the people were almost gone, Du Mingen also came up to talk to Liu Jin, very polite, he really admired Liu Jin, and he still admired people who were really talented.

"Your Excellency has an overreputation, and I am only a shallow learner, so I should not be praised like this."

"Please sit down, Xiao Er, change the pot of tea."

Liu Jin smiled and shook his head, and looked at this Du Mingen carefully, he was not tall, with a Chinese face, and there were two dimples on his face when he laughed, which made people feel three points of intimacy, and his clothes looked average, but the jade pendant on his waist, as well as the jasper wrench on his finger, knew that it was priceless at a glance.

In this era, it is not easy to do business, especially the grain business, in addition to having a strong background backer, their own ability must also be excellent.

"This brother, you and I have a fate today, why don't you come over and talk together and get to know each other."

Du Mingen looked at Emperor Hongzhi on the side, and could see at a glance with his vicious gaze that this person is not simple, he is not rich, he is expensive, and people who do business pay attention to making more friends and less enemies, so he also has the intention of making friends.

"It's really fate, so let's talk about it."

When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, he thought about it and nodded, and also sat down.

Emperor Hongzhi, Liu Jin, and Du Mingen sat together, while Zhao Erhu, Huang Jinquan, Tong Yuan, Lin Shuhong and others stood aside, and Emperor Hongzhi's son Zhu Houzhao carefully studied the simple globe, full of curiosity.

"Haven't asked your Excellency for your name?"

Replaced with a good new tea, Liu Jin also smiled and asked Emperor Hongzhi, although he already knew the identity of the other party, but at this time, he naturally had to pretend not to know.

"Under Zhu Ping."

Emperor Hongzhi thought about it and casually took a temporary name.

"It turned out to be Mr. Zhu, fortunately."

Du Mingen said to Emperor Hongzhi.

"Lucky meeting~"

Liu Jin also said quickly and politely.

"Fortunately."

Emperor Hongzhi also bowed his hand slightly, smiling.

After a simple compliment to each other, the three of them also chatted slowly.

"Liu Gongzi has already learned five cars at a young age, and he is only eight years old, and he knows the world outside the Ming Dynasty in such detail, I don't know if you have been to all these places that Liu Gongzi said?"

chatting and chatting, it naturally came to the content that Liu Jin talked about today.

"This world is very big, not to mention anything else, just our Ming Dynasty, from the northernmost to the southernmost, it will take a few months to complete, if you want to go all over the world, to the world to see, without ten years and eight years is simply impossible."

"This knowledge is also told to me by a master I was fortunate to meet, so that I can know that the world outside our Ming Dynasty is so vast, and there are countries as powerful as our Ming Dynasty in this world, and a dazzling civilization as bright as our China."

Liu Jin shook his head, but he knew very well in his heart that after this Hongzhi Emperor went back, he would definitely find out his ancestors for eighteen generations, and he would definitely not be able to say that he had been overseas, and he could only push all this to the unwarranted masters.

Anyway, in this era, there are always some self-proclaimed talented people who like to pretend to be superior, and it won't be strange to say this yourself.

"There is such a master in the world, I don't know if it is convenient to tell us about his name, if there is a chance, I also want to meet this master and ask him for advice."

Emperor Hongzhi has always been thirsty for talent, and now most of the princes above the court are also virtuous people, hearing that there are masters, coupled with Liu Jin's words today, he also wants to know the masters in Liu Jin's mouth.

"This master's name is Xu Xiake, he has traveled all over the world, his whereabouts are ethereal, and he has long been unaware of where to go."

Liu Jin pretended to be helpless and said, and at the same time, he also put the master's hat on Xu Xiake's head, as for the real Xu Xiake in history, there is still a long time before he was born.

"Xu Xiake?"

Emperor Hongzhi and Du Mingen silently wrote down this name, such a master, it is really a big regret in life that they can't see each other.

"Is this Golden Continent really full of gold?"

"Wouldn't it be very dangerous to go to the Golden Continent?"

"To be honest, after listening to Childe's words, I really want to go to this Golden Continent to have a look and take a walk."

Du Mingen thought about it and asked.

"I'm afraid there is still an exaggerated element in this gold everywhere, but I think there will definitely be no shortage of gold in this Golden Continent."

"As for whether it will be very dangerous to go to the Golden Continent, it depends on how you operate, the Golden Continent is far away from our Daming, and you need to take a boat to go, no one can say for sure what is going on at sea."

"Mr. is a businessman, he should know that the risk is proportional to the return, the greater the risk, the higher the return, not to mention anything else, if you can bring three high-yield crops back to our Ming Dynasty from the Golden Continent, Mr. Du will be enough to leave a name in history."

"What's more, we can verify many things that Xu Xiake, a master, said, especially about many things about our Ming Dynasty, he said it is extremely accurate, it is obvious that he has studied the astronomical geography of our Ming Dynasty for a long time, and summarized the natural laws contained in it."

"So I guess that the description of the Golden Continent, Europe, Australia, and Africa should be inseparable, and since this Golden Continent is called the Golden Continent, there must be a lot of gold and amazing wealth."

Liu Jin thought about it and said slowly, without an affirmative answer, but appropriately expressed some doubts, so that the credibility was much higher.

"To be honest, I have a small amount of assets, and I would love to form a fleet to go to this golden continent."

Du Mingen pondered for a while, then seemed to have made a decision, thought about it and said to Liu Jin and Emperor Hongzhi.

"I think Brother Zhu is also an extraordinary person, Liu Gongzi knows the geography outside the Ming Dynasty very well, why don't the three of us form a caravan together to go to the Golden Continent, how about the gold you and I get afterwards divide it equally?"

"Assemble a fleet to go to the Golden Continent?"

Liu Jin and Emperor Hongzhi glanced at each other, slightly surprised, they didn't expect this Du Mingen to be so decisive, today just heard Liu Jin's words, and actually wanted to form a fleet to go to the Golden Continent.
