Chapter 846: This Zhong Jun is very greedy for money, and this emperor is stingy
Hearing Gu Xiaobai say this, Zhu Di was stunned for a long time, and then sighed and said: "Zhong Jun is really a heavenly immortal, in this world, even if it is an emperor in the world, how many can live to be fifty years old?"
Gu Xiaobai was stunned.
Zhu Di's words broke some misunderstandings of Gu Xiaobai, although Gu Xiaobai has traveled through many eras, he always forgets that the average life expectancy of human beings has only been greatly improved in modern times.
More than 100 years ago, the average life expectancy in China was just over 30 years.
Even if he is an emperor, he is already a human being, Zhu Gaochi is forty-seven or eighteen years old, and he is already a long-lived man, and among the 20 emperors of the Ming Dynasty, he can be ranked in the top five.
If you want to become a ruler of history, the prerequisite is to live a long time in order to fulfill your own governance program.
But the Ming monarchs in history did not always live long.
Qin Shi Huang was only 50 years old, and Tang Taizong Li Shimin was only 53 years old.
In modern times, they can only be regarded as middle-aged people in the prime of life, and they are already considered to be long-lived in ancient times.
"As for the funeral, as long as Zhong Jun and you are still in this world, who would dare to let Miss Jun'er suffer the slightest grievance? And if Zhong Jun is gone, how many days will Miss Jun'er live?"
Zhu Di's words are particularly straightforward.
But for Gu Xiaobai, it was like piercing a layer of window paper, making him stunned.
"Besides, the life of the copper factory is hard, how can it be compared to being pampered in the palace, Gao Chi is my eldest son, I know very well, he is generous and straightforward, he must really like Miss Jun'er, and he will pursue Miss Jun'er. As the so-called fair lady, a gentleman is good, this is just human nature, what's wrong?"
"Moreover, Zhong Jun is not Miss Jun'er, so how do you know that Miss Jun'er doesn't like it?"
As for the fact that Zhu Gaochi already has a wife, Zhu Di didn't even mention it, in this era, is there anything wrong with a man having three wives and four concubines? Not to mention that this guy is still the future emperor!
Gu Xiaobai was still a little unhappy. That's my sister.
How can you just let a stinky man marry away?
God knows if my sister can take a fancy to that lame fat man!
And it's a married lame fat man!
But after all, it was not as angry as it was at the beginning.
Seeing that Gu Xiaobai was gradually appeased, Zhu Di breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he looks calm on the surface, Zhu Di's back has already been soaked with sweat.
Sitting with Gu Xiaobai, he had a feeling of sitting in the powder magazine, and he didn't know when he would be blown up into the sky.
Since becoming the emperor, Zhu Di has not felt like this for many years.
He looked out the window and saw that there were guards guarding him outside the window as if he were facing a great enemy, holding the firearm in his hand tightly, but he didn't dare to point into the window, for fear of angering Gu Xiaobai or offending Zhu Di.
His eyes fell on the seal left by the big bell in the garden, and his heart moved, and he asked: "The day after tomorrow, I will hold a ceremony to reward the officers and soldiers of the fleet who go to sea, I wonder if Zhong Jun is willing to accept the reward?"
"Reward or something...... Gu Xiaobai was still a little unhappy in his heart, and just wanted to say that he was not rare, but after thinking about it, he asked, "What are you rewarding?"
"Official positions, salaries, gold, silver, silk, ......"
Gu Xiaobai's eyes lit up immediately.
"I don't want official positions and silk, how much will I be rewarded if I exchange it for money?"
Zhu Di: "......"
How can it be so straightforward!
"Zhong Jun has made great contributions to the West this time, and there is always a ...... daughter"
"This number is too empty, let's make it real!" Gu Xiaobai was dissatisfied, "By the way, I heard that Daming spent 7.5 million taels of silver to reward Chen Zuyi, did the money settle first?"
"Who did you listen to?" Zhu Di almost jumped up and was about to fight with Gu Xiaobai.
Even if the other party is Zhong Jun, he can take his life in an instant, he wants to fight with Gu Xiaobai!
My annual financial income is only 9 million taels of silver, and you want to hollow out my country's treasury at one time?
Can I still fight the war? I can't go to the West?
Who did I listen to? Of course, it's the title party on the Internet in later generations!
"My Ming Dynasty's reward for Chen Zuyi is only 500,000 taels, and this time to exterminate the pirates, my Ming Dynasty sailor has made great contributions, how can there be a reason to reward you with all the money!"
Outside the gate, Zhu Gaochi and Zheng He were sticking to the door, eavesdropping on the movements inside.
When Gu Xiaobai and Zhu Di discussed Hua Zhongjun's matter just now, Zhu Gaochi was extremely nervous.
But at this moment, when I heard that the two of them were bargaining like businessmen, they looked at Zheng He opposite with a smile.
Zheng He raised his forehead with his hand and shook his head helplessly.
He knew Zhu Di's purpose for doing this.
Tonight, Gu Xiaobai's bell rang in the sky, and the entire Jinling knew that Zhong Jun had come to the palace.
What else did you sing, "Zhong Jun is angry and the heavens and the earth are collapsing", what is the emperor? The emperor is the Son of Heaven!
Heaven and earth have collapsed, so isn't the emperor dead?
Zhong Jun actually threatened the emperor like this, and now outside, he doesn't know what's going on.
Even if Zhu Di clarifies that he is fine, this is a big blow to Zhu Di's majesty.
How can this influence be eliminated? Of course, Xiaobai himself will come forward.
To be honest, he wasn't worried that Gu Xiaobai would ask for a lot of money, he was only worried that Gu Xiaobai would not accept the reward.
As long as Gu Xiaobai came forward to accept Zhu Di's reward, others knew that Gu Xiaobai, Zhong Jun, was still willing to admit Zhu Di, the king of the mortal world.
Gu Xiaobai argued for a while, but Zhu Di didn't relax, and only promised to give Gu Xiaobai 500,000 taels of silver, Gu Xiaobai was helpless, if Hao Fanbai was there at this time, or Brother Yao was there.
I really don't have a thick enough skin, and I can't ask for money!
Gu Xiaobai felt that Zhu Di was really not good, he was a stingy ghost!
Zhu Di didn't expect that this Zhong Jun would be a money fan!
Gu Xiaobai was very angry.
Zhu Di was ecstatic in his heart.
I finally knew what I could do to make this Zhong Jun work for him.
But Zhu Di couldn't figure it out when he thought about it left and right, and asked: "Could it be that the gods in the sky also want money in the world?"
Zhu Gaochi was also very curious, and his whole body was attached to the door.
"I don't know about others, but I, Zhong Jun, am very short of money, and it costs a lot of money to engage in scientific research. Gu Xiaobai said.
Zhu Di: "......"
What is research? Why do you want to do it?
Could it be some kind of way to become an immortal? Hmm...... It turns out that Zhong Jun's immortal cultivation is a resource stream?
It's no wonder that when you look at that bell, it must be a magic weapon, and I don't know how much heaven and earth treasure you need to consume to practice.
The magic weapon flow is so arrogant!
All right......
Zhu Di accepted the setting that "immortals consume resources very much".
And Gu Xiaobai is also seriously thinking about the possibility of getting more money from Zhu Di.
If before, Gu Xiaobai was still trying to make money from modern society, then those sunken ships made him think of a new way to make money.
He can make money from antiquity!
Just throw the money you earn into the sea and dig it out in a few hundred years...... Wha, get rich!
However, if it is only 500,000 taels, it is far from Gu Xiaobai's expectations.
