Chapter 88 The Legendary Treasure of the Gentleman's Country (Chinese)

Zhao Xing laughed coldly: "You have never heard of the 'Nanzhu'. That's because such a pearl is the source of disaster for destroying the family and the country. No matter who has such a Jinzhen, he will not want others to know. Once the news is leaked, it is a bloody crime and the origin of the sin.

Do you know? I once heard people talk about "Nanzhu", but this thing is too dangerous. If I take it away alone, I may not be able to return to China and I will be abandoned in the sea. Now I tell you, do you dare to take it?

If a person owns this wealth, it is a disaster. If everyone shares this wealth and each person takes one - isn't this "spread wealth"?

No, this is not enough. What I will give you is a thousand-year-old wealth. As long as you are willing to work together, this wealth is enough for you to enjoy a thousand years... Go back and comfort your crew and tell them my words. You first discuss how to distribute wealth."

After saying this, Zhao Xing unveiled the navigation chart again and did not look at Liu San again. He expressed his willingness to terminate the conversation in body language, but Liu San was like a curious baby, with too many problems.

He pointed to the navigation chart and asked tentatively: "Master, when will this kind of picture be finished?... Will you give it to me after it is finished?"

After a moment of pause, he immediately asked again: "How did the great official draw on the sheepskin..."

Zhao Xing cut off the other party's words: "This is the method given to me by Master Pu - the sea water is salty, the chart is drawn on the paper. After the storm, the drawing is a ball of sauce, and only parchment can save the chart... Well, we will sail to Mayi Island tomorrow at noon, and when we return, this drawing will be handed over to you. Now, go and comfort your crew."

Liu San said it was right. When Zhao Xing's Song ship sailed into Mayi Island, the sea was full of canoes. The owner of the canoe took his wife and children to get on Zhao Xing's ship, waiting for the goods to be credited.

While translating to Zhao Xing, the "tongue man" introduced local customs to Zhao Xing: "You can leave their wives and children. The local habit is that if the cargo person encounters wind and waves, the ship sinks and cannot pay the value of the goods to the Song people, their wives and children will be taken away by the Song people and treated as slaves.

Master, don't worry, you won't lose money, the locals will not let you take their wives and children away. If there is a canoe that does not return for some reason, the locals will raise money to redeem their wives and children."

When the tongue man was translating, Wang Yuanyu stood beside him. But his appearance did not work at all because he did not understand the local language at all. Perhaps his appearance only made the tongue man feel scruple and dared not cheat.

Wang Yuanyu didn't interrupt a word about the translation. Although Zhao Xing had no expression on his face, his heart was in a state of uproar.

Is this Mayi Island the legendary "gentleman country"?... In fact, if you want to be a gentleman, you can't slap a sound. Without the Song people, they can't become gentlemen.

However, in this world, "gentleman" is the most difficult animal to survive.

The king of Ma Yi, wearing a grass skirt, was introduced to Zhao Xing by the "tongue man". Zhao Xing looked at the "quasi-Kunlun slave" full of tattoos with pity. His eyes passed over King Ma Yi, looking at the shore behind him, looking at the thatched hut on the shore and the naked Ma Yi woman.

Liu San was a little ready to move. He looked at the wooden stick in the king's hand with disdain. It was a slightly pointed wooden stick. Ma Yiren used fire to grill one end of the wooden stick, and then rounded the tip of the carbonized wooden stick, so he made a weapon.

Liu San was used to roaming on the sea and was quite lawless. Seeing these straw ropes, a "Thousand Houses Country" that could destroy the country and destroy the seeds with a "Balanggu" and remembered Zhao Xing's "wealth and wealth" that he hoped to win the sky, and his heart couldn't help but be filled with the desire to kill - Zhao Xing brought two ships, with more than 40 people on the ship, and the weapons the crew had were not only straw ropes. This armed force was enough to destroy the country and destroy the seeds three and a half times.

But is this necessary?

The king of Ma Yi Kingdom stared at the sword in Zhao Xing's hand. This was a Japanese Tang sword. Although it was not unsheathed, from the smooth shape of the sword and the exquisite workmanship of the sword, you can feel the extraordinary value of the sword.

The transaction between Ma Yiren and Song Ship mainly purchased the iron tools of the Song people. They did not have smelting techniques and occasionally some bronze tools were sold to it by the Song people. The recorded transaction price is: a "slightly better quality" Song sword can be exchanged for four pearls, and each pearl can be brought back to Quanzhou and can be sold for at least 100 cents.

This kind of "slightly good quality" Song Dao sold only 500 yuan in Quanzhou.

The knife in Zhao Xing's hand can buy a thousand ordinary Song swords like this.

King Ma Yi was looking at Zhao Xing's knife, and Zhao Xing was looking at the wooden stick in the other party's hand. The stick was very smooth by the king. It looked red all over, and the whole branch was straight and hard. The trunk of the flowing light was as gentle as jade, making Zhao Xing unable to take his eyes away.

This is the "dragon blood tree" mentioned by the Song people - Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the dragon blood tree is born when the dragon and the elephant are fighting, and blood is sprinkled on the earth, so the blood-colored liquid flowing out of the dragon blood tree is dragon blood, which functions to replenish blood.

This wood is a good material for making high-end furniture and is the best choice for making high-quality bows. Although the Song people traded the "Dragon Blood Tree" with Ma Yiren, they all regarded it as a precious medicinal material for replenishing blood. But in fact, it is not a real dragon blood tree. It is a type of red sandalwood. It is the same as the real African dragon blood tree. When the bark is opened, the branches will flow out of the sap like blood. This sap is a high-quality raw material for paint. The wood painted by "Dragon Blood Paint" shows a luxurious crimson red color, which does not attract insects and ants and does not change color for thousands of years.

In ancient times, the resin of the dragon blood tree was also the raw material for corpses because this resin was a good preservative.
