Chapter 277: Is This Thing a Tribute?
The morning began in the morning, and Li Longxuan dragged his tired body back to the Changsun Mansion. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Originally, according to the ancestral system, Li Longxuan had to return to the East Palace Prince's Mansion and only then could he come out to build his own mansion when he became an adult, but Li Longxuan didn't use it this time.
Not to mention anything else, just Li Cheng didn't want Li Longxuan to return to the East Palace Prince's Mansion. Li Longxuan didn't want to go back, just right!
Therefore, Li Longxuan could only return to the mansion of the eldest grandson Wuji, of course, considering that Li Longxuan was about to become an adult, the old emperor gave Li Longxuan a mansion.
However, the mansion has to be renovated and expanded, and it is estimated that it will not be able to live in it for a year and a half, but it just so happens that Li Longxuan can stay in the mansion of the eldest grandson Wuji.
Behind Li Longxuan, the group carried a lot of things, which were all given to Li Longxuan by the emperor, which could be regarded as compensation for Li Longxuan over the years.
A eunuch walked inside with a roster and cautiously followed behind Li Longxuan.
"Okay, put all the things in the courtyard, and tell me what the imperial grandfather has rewarded me this time. Li Longxuan said with a smile.
"Your Highness, the things that Your Majesty has rewarded Your Highness this time are all first-class, and many of them are tributes, and other princes and grandsons can't envy them. The little eunuch said flatteringly.
Although no one took Li Longxuan in their eyes before, who dares not to put Li Longxuan in their eyes now?
"Oh, what are the tributes?" Li Longxuan's face couldn't help but show surprise, tribute, tribute, that is what only the emperor can have, and it is the best thing in the world.
"Yes, Your Highness. The little eunuch with the roster walked up to a box and said, "Your Highness, this box is Your Majesty's favorite tribute, and it is a golden fruit from a certain country in the Western Regions, and it is said that only the royal family of the country can enjoy it." ”
"Oh, what is it?" Li Longxuan couldn't help but feel a little excited, the golden fruit, could it be a fruit made of gold? Li Longxuan hurriedly ordered the person next to him to open the box.
As soon as the box was opened, a golden thing suddenly appeared in Li Longxuan's eyes.
Golden Fruit Golden Fruit, but Li Longxuan glanced at it, and couldn't help but scold his mother!
Golden Fruit, Holy Shit Golden Fruit! This is a box of bananas!
The emperor actually likes to eat bananas? Could it be that the royal family is all monkeys? Li Longxuan's face was depressed, he really never expected that this golden fruit turned out to be a box of bananas!
I don't know which country paid tribute, Li Longxuan clearly remembered that bananas should only be in the tropical rainforest, such as Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, etc., the Western Regions are located in the desert, there is a fart banana?
It seems that some unscrupulous merchants have sprang up with foreign envoys to get some bananas to fool the emperor. The countries of the Western Regions have long been conquered by Li Longxuan, and there is a fart envoy to pay tribute!
However, these profiteers can pretend to be envoys, which also shows one point, that is, the emperor's vanity is still very big, but think about it, that emperor doesn't want all countries to come to the court? And now that Li Longxuan is blocking the news of the west, a lot of news in the area of Cold Bone City has not yet come out. Li Longxuan understands that some things still have to be blocked, and in this era of no mobile phones and no computers, it is actually quite easy to block news.
Suddenly, an extremely evil idea rose from Li Longxuan's heart, did he also organize some fake envoys to pay tribute? You must know that every time you pay tribute, the Shenlong Empire will reward you with a lot of things, and it is definitely a good trade route with great profits! But isn't it a little unkind to do that?
"Your Highness, are you satisfied?" the little eunuch asked with a smile.
"Satisfied, very satisfied, you can take two and eat them yourself when you leave. Li Longxuan said with a faint smile.
"Your Highness Xie's reward, Your Highness Xie's reward!" the little eunuch knelt on the ground excitedly and said, the whole person was as excited as if he had won hundreds of millions of lottery tickets.
Li Longxuan couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Get up and see other rewards." ”
"Your Highness, this is His Majesty the Emperor's favorite wandering horse. The little eunuch excitedly pointed to a huge box and said.
"Oh, open it up and let me see. Li Longxuan also said with some excitement, Wandering away from the horse, this is about the same.
However, when the person next to him opened the box, Li Longxuan really couldn't stand it anymore, and he was a wandering horse? What kind of bullshit was a wandering horse? This was clearly a glass horse produced in Cold Bone City! This kind of thing had already begun to be produced in molds, and it was not worth much at all! The old emperor actually used it as a treasure! Forget it as a treasure, he actually used it to reward himself.
Li Longxuan suddenly wanted to cry without tears!
"What's next?" Li Longxuan said lightly, his face was not sad or happy, alas, he felt a little lost in his heart.
"Your Majesty has rewarded Your Highness with 10,000 gold this time. ”
"Wanjin, really Wanjin?" Li Longxuan couldn't help but feel excited again, Wanjin, Wanjin, although he is already very, very rich, but who would dislike his own money?
"Is this the box in the back? Open it quickly, open it quickly!" Li Longxuan said excitedly, and his subordinates hurriedly opened the box, only to see that inside the box, pieces of hard substances were placed all over the box, some were white, some were yellow, and some were a little reddish.
But Li Longxuan glanced at it, and his brows couldn't help frowning tightly, because he found that the red one was a little bit of iron, the white one was pig iron, and the yellow one was a piece of brass!
What about the good money? What about the good money? This is the gold?
Li Longxuan was really dumbfounded.
"You...... Are you sure this is really Wanjin? You didn't play tricks?" Li Longxuan said with some unhappiness.
"Temple...... Your Highness, what do you mean by this? This ...... This is indeed ten thousand gold, Your Majesty's reward, we don't take it privately!" The little eunuch was frightened by Li Longxuan's words.
Li Longxuan was depressed, although he said that iron and copper also belong to metals, but shouldn't ten thousand gold be 10,000 catties of gold? How did Li Longxuan know that the so-called ten thousand catties of gold in this era are actually my 10,000 catties of metal. In this era, metal could also be used as money, because the things used to make money were iron and copper. No wonder Li Longxuan's people took a few hundred taels of gold and put it in the hands of those corrupt officials, and immediately some people fell down at their feet.
The emperor gives thousands of gold at every turn, gives ten thousand gold, where is there so much gold in the world, even the royal family may not be able to have so much.
"Your Highness......"
"Come on, get up, Your Highness is very happy, all of them are rewarded, and each of them will take a pound home. Li Longxuan waved his hand and said, and everyone present looked at Li Longxuan with excitement. (To be continued.) )
