Chapter 156 The Light of Civilization of the Savage
The Emperor of Ethiopia seemed to be a kind person.
In Little Descartes's view, this emperor had almost no other shortcomings except for his wife.
Of course, it would be even better if he was willing to be more generous, put on clothes for his wives and cover up the exposed breasts.
As for His Majesty the Emperor wrapped himself in silk and exposed his exquisite and transparent male characteristics, Little Descartes could still accept it.
After all, no matter who has grown up such a big male trait, he wants to show off to others.
After quietly sitting in the lower position of the teacher, watching the dance of the Ethiopian beauty and watching the exciting Ethiopian war dance, Descartes finally found that the transaction between the teacher and His Majesty the Emperor had ended.
Gold, gems, ivory and many other instruments were exchanged for many porcelain, silk, and various utensils. Descartes believed that this should be a fair deal.
Not to mention, the teacher took the initiative to offer a total of a thousand weapons of various colors to the Ethiopian emperor.
These weapons came from pirates, and the pirates have now become prisoners of the Captain Huashan.
His Majesty the Emperor also took out a huge gem, hoping to exchange these gems for some pirates.
This is an emperor who can speak Dutch very fluently.
Teacher Zhang Liang said very well in Dutch words. Given that the gem was beautiful, the teacher agreed very happily.
Originally, according to the rules of the sea, these pirates had only two consequences, one was to be crucified on the cross hanging on the coastline. The other was to find an uninhabited coral reef to exile these pirates and let them fend for themselves.
His Majesty the Ethiopian Emperor got fifty pirates. When these pirates were sent to His Majesty, the trembling pirates were immediately overwhelmed by the black crowd.
After the crowd spread, only large pieces of blood were left on the ground. As for the people, they had disappeared long ago. When Little Descartes saw a boy as big as him and had applied a lot of white paint on his face, he wanted to vomit.
However, seeing that the teacher was still sitting there quietly chatting and laughing with His Majesty the Emperor, he calmed himself down, took a banana, and slowly watched the black boy slowly biting the banana.
Teacher Zhang Liang believed that His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty had two wives, and only getting a fist-sized gem would put His Majesty in a dilemma, so he took the initiative to propose to the great Ethiopian emperor that he still had more than 600 prisoners.
However, the Ethiopian emperor had no interest in the remaining prisoners. He believed that the fifty pirates were enough for his tribe to eat for a while. It would be bad that there were too many prisoners left, and the meat would smell bad.
For this reason, Teacher Zhang Liang had to take out his own glass mirror and show it to His Majesty the Emperor. This is a very magical mirror. When the mirror is flat, it can reflect the sunlight into the dark thatched palace.
When Teacher Zhang Liang moved behind the mirror twice, the mirror turned into a concave mirror. When the sun is fierce, it can gather the sunlight at a point and ignite the dead grass on the ground.
The Ethiopian emperor personally fiddled with the mirror and debugged a bright light to shine on the faces of the tribe members in the distance. The tribe members immediately fell to the ground and foamed at the mouth.
He debugged the concave mirror again, and after lit a bunch of thatch with the concave mirror himself, he took out five gems that were more dazzling than the gem he took out before and exchanged for Mr. Zhang Liang's treasure.
Both of them were satisfied with this.
The Ethiopian emperor was undoubtedly a smart person. When Teacher Zhang Liang proposed to purchase a large number of Ethiopian "Kefi" he once again pointed to the sky and said that this was a treasure given to the Ethiopians by the gods and could not be bought or sold. Once he did this, he would definitely bring curses from his ancestors.
This is to add money.
The performance of the emperor in Ethiopia is too serious, even Descartes can see this.
Just when Descartes thought it was time to dispatch the brave Ming sailors to persuade His Majesty the Emperor, Teacher Zhang Liang took out more good things and insisted on exchanging the treasures of their clan with His Majesty the Emperor.
Sixteen eight-pound cannons, one hundred barrels of gunpowder, and two hundred shells.
He also ordered the Ming sailors who followed him to personally perform cannons... The effect was naturally very good, so that the Ethiopian emperor forgot the curse of his ancestors and agreed to deliver "Kefi" with these cannons, gunpowder, shells, etc.
His Majesty the Emperor enthusiastically invited Mr. Zhang Liang and his group to live in his palace for a while to teach them to use these primitive cannons. For this reason, he also pulled his most beautiful wife out of the crowd and asked her to serve Mr. Zhang Liang.
Mr. Zhang Liang was furious and believed that His Majesty the Emperor had insulted him. He also said that he was a friend of His Majesty the Emperor of Ethiopia. The reason why he handed these cannons to His Majesty the Emperor was that he could not bear the damn European robbers robbed Ethiopia.
Friendship is priceless!
His Majesty the Emperor thought that Teacher Zhang Liang was a good person, so he found twelve stunning virgin beauties from his own tribe. After hearing that Descartes was a student of Teacher Zhang Liang, he generously rewarded Descartes with a stunning beauties to Descartes.
Follow the official account: Book Friends Base Camp, follow it and get cash and order coins!
Teacher Zhang Liang only refused once, and the necks of the twelve stunning beauties were broken by a group of strong men. Little Descartes immediately pulled the last little girl who belonged to him and placed it behind him. He also thanked His Majesty the Emperor for his gifts, and Teacher Zhang Liang's face was pale.
Although this way of killing oneself and scaring outsiders is unnecessary and stupid in Little Descartes's opinion, since the teacher has shown to be frightened, as a student, he naturally has to act even more unbearable.
All the transactions were completed, and Mr. Zhang Liang was about to say goodbye and return to the ship. His Majesty the Ethiopian Emperor rewarded many gems, gold, ivory, rhino horns, and lion skins.
Just when Mr. Zhang Liang and Little Descartes and his group were puzzled and ready to board the boat, His Majesty the Emperor ordered his wives to take off everyone's boots and scrape off the soil stuck to the bottom of the boots with a knife bit by bit.
Seeing that Mr. Zhang Liang and his group were puzzled by this behavior, he said to Mr. Zhang Liang and everyone righteously: "Gems, gold, rhino horns, ivory, and lion skin are just attachments on this land. It is inevitable to share with good brothers.
However, the land is different. It is made up of the corpses of the Ethiopian ancestors, and even a piece of the needle-tip cannot be given to others."
Mr. Zhang Liang could not bow to him after hearing this, and was promising to His Majesty's wise admiration...
After the group boarded the boat in clean boots, Little Descartes said, "Teacher, this earth king is very rich!"
Mr. Zhang Liang smiled and said, "What do you think?"
Little Descartes smiled and said, "I think we can..."
Zhang Liang shook his head and said, "No!"
"Why?"
"Because the Ming Dynasty had long passed the time to rely on killing and plunder to enrich itself."
"But, as I said, we will get more wealth."
Zhang Liang looked at Little Descartes and said, "Little Descartes, what do we need so much treasure? Do you still don't understand the meaning of wealth? I remember that I told you about the relationship between wealth and trade.
You must understand the relationship between the two when the market is big, not how much wealth there is, not how big the market is.
The sudden increase in gold for no reason. So, what is its effect besides causing the value of gold to fall to a level that matches the market? What is the difference between having this batch of gold and not having this batch of gold?
This time we used fair trading to open up a market and made friends with an emperor. From now on, when our Ming Dynasty ships came to Ethiopia, we could trade here with confidence and replenish them here. Then our goods were exchanged for Ethiopian gold, gems, rhinoceros horns, and ivory. The gold exchanged in this way was gold, and gems were gems. Our market capacity was large, and the price of gold and treasures did not fluctuate. This was the real wealth.
Robbers are actually a business that harms others and benefits themselves.”
"But, teacher, I heard that our Emperor of Ming Dynasty is a powerful... Robin Hood."
Zhang Liang looked at Little Descartes with a smile and said, "You don't have to hide it for Your Majesty. He is a robber, nicknamed "Wild Boar Spirit". His ancestors have been robbers for generations, and they are a robber family that has been passed down for thousands of years.
It is completely different from the British Robin Hood. Robin Hood is a thief who helps the poor. Our Majesty's ancestors are a thief who causes trouble.
As a robber has been a long time, he will see clearly the ills caused by robbers to society. Therefore, after His Majesty ascended the throne, there will be no robbers in the world.
However, after all, he was born into a robber, and the blood of a robber flowed in his bones. I think he would like you to grow young people. After all, it would be a pity that your child would not be a robber.
After returning, I wrote me a detailed analysis report on the behavior of the Ethiopian emperor. I want to see if you really see through this Ethiopian emperor.
In addition, settle your little beauty, people like us should not have a kind heart. Once we have this kind of mind, we must be consistent."
Little Descartes looked back at the terrified little girl following him, took off her gown and put it on the girl with only a grass skirt.
"Little Emily has no playmate, so the reason I took her in is for the sake of Little Emily."
Zhang Liang looked at the face full of indifferent words in Little Descartes, and couldn't help but pat his cheek and said, "You will definitely become a bad man in the future, and will definitely make many women sad."
Descartes little said: "This doesn't matter, just take your needs."
Zhang Liang laughed and said, "I hope, God knows!"
