William walked over and started asking questions directly.

The woman who bought the buns froze for a moment when she heard this, she couldn't understand the other person's words at all, and she didn't know how to answer at this moment.

Seeing that among these people, there was Hai Qing who seemed to be his own compatriot, so he turned his head to look at each other.

Hai Qing guessed what these guys were talking about, so he took out the money, "Bring me ten baskets of buns."

The woman took the money, nodded lightly, then wrapped the buns one by one with oiled paper and handed them out.

After the envoys took it, they couldn't wait to take a bite, grinned their teeth hotly, and then couldn't bear to put it down.

"It's so fragrant, this thing is too delicious!"

"Compared with the food from our side, it is indeed much more delicious. No wonder I smelled a different smell just now."

The envoys talked one after another.

Hai Qing didn't show any expression, and continued to walk forward with these people.

The envoys were a little bit reluctant, as if the few in their hands were not enough for them to eat, it would be great if they could eat a few more.

"What you just took, was it money?"

William squeezed forward and asked Hai Qing.

After Hai Qing figured out what the other party meant, he nodded.

"We want to exchange some of your money, how do we exchange it?"

Anyway, if you have money, you can come here to buy it.

William thought.

Hearing this, Hai Qing drew a picture and showed the other party how much copper coins are equal to one gold.

Seeing this scene, William felt relieved, it seems that this gold is enough for all of them to eat for a long time.

This gold is really valuable.

William quickly expressed that he wanted to exchange for money.

Haiqing didn't hesitate, and took the other party directly to the bank, and successfully exchanged some money, but instead of copper coins, they were all exchanged for silver, which was enough for the other party to use.

"Hey, what is this?"

A group of people continued to walk forward, and after a while, they saw a downtown in front of them, and there was actually a dead body beside the downtown.

It gave them the feeling of being extremely peaceful. Putting such a corpse here really made them a little dazed, and no one knew what was going on.

William turned to Hai Qing with an inquiring look.

Hai Qing didn't know what was going on after going out for a long time, so he could only ask passers-by beside him.

The passer-by directly told Hai Qing what happened before, and it was only at this time that Hai Qing knew that such a big thing had happened during the time he was away.

"Oh, it's not a big deal. It's just that the monarch of a country rashly sent troops to invade the Xinghan Empire, and then we destroyed the country. This corpse is the monarch of that country, and he was pushed here and beheaded for public display."

After Hai Qing understood what was going on here, he drew a picture for the people on the side to watch.

Hearing this, the expressions of William and the others were extremely ugly.

The monarch of a country was captured and beheaded directly. This is too cruel!

This Xinghan Empire is so cruel!

A group of people felt their necks were chilling at this moment, as if they would be pulled here to kill them at any moment.

"Don't worry, our Majesty is still very peaceful and won't do it easily."

Seeing that a group of people seemed to have a bit of a wrong face, Hai Qing comforted her.

William and the others responded with an embarrassed smile.

Royal Palace.

"My lord, envoys from foreign countries have arrived in Xinghan City, do you want to receive them?"

The guard came to Lu Chensheng to report.

When Lu Chensheng heard this, he didn't raise his head, "No need, let's put it aside for now."

The other party has just arrived in this star Seoul, and he is going to meet the other party, which can easily make the other party feel that he is very important.

It is necessary to put the other side aside to dry.

The guard nodded immediately when he heard this.

"Where are they now?"

Lu Chensheng asked.

"The envoys are living in the courtyard arranged by the Ministry of Rites, and they are going out with Lord Haiqing at the moment, and they should be out for a walk."

play?Probably just went shopping.

Lu Chensheng hummed, waved and said, "Go ahead, I won't meet them for the time being, as for where they go to play, it's up to them to go."

"Yes!"

The guard who received the order immediately turned around and walked out.

Chapter 782

Three days had passed, and during these three days, Lu Chensheng had no intention of summoning envoys from various countries.

This matter made the envoys of various countries a little unconfident.

It has been some time since they came here, and the monarch here should have summoned them no matter how busy he is, but the unlucky opponent just didn't intend to summon them.

What's going on here? Could it be that the other party didn't take them to heart at all?

If so, there is a little possibility.

They have stayed here for a while, and have seen the prosperity and wealth here.

Compared with this place, their side is simply a lot behind, no matter whether it is Ming or the strength of the soldiers.

And what makes them feel fearful and fond is the Jinyiwei here.

The Jinyiwei here are all powerful masters. They have competed with such a person before, and have seen such a person.

Hearing what the other party said, he thought that there were not many such masters, but he didn't expect that the Jin Yiwei here are all such masters. It's hard to say, and the number is scary.

If they met such people on the battlefield, they might not even have a chance to escape.

It's so scary!

"You said, it's really strange why the monarch of the Xinghan Empire didn't summon us. Could it be that he really didn't take us seriously?"

Dick was very strange and wanted to meet the monarch here, so he asked the people around him.

Hearing this, the person beside him nodded and replied after thinking for a while, "Not sure, I also feel that the other party may really look down on us, so they didn't intend to summon us for so long.

Anyway, the other party really has such strength and doesn't want to summon us. This place is really too prosperous, and we don't know how long it will take to develop to keep up with it. It's really enviable. "

"Not only is it prosperous, but the opponent's military strength is also extremely strong. The guy who was beheaded before was the monarch of a neighboring country next door. After offending the opponent, he was immediately arrested and beheaded. It is really terrible!"

Everyone talked about it, each talking about their feelings about this place.

Hearing this, Dick sighed even more. Does he still want to meet the monarch here? It seems that there are not many opportunities?

"Please get ready, the Holy Majesty will summon you."

At this moment, a guard hurried in? Then he spoke.

Hai Qing, who had been following around all the time, got up quickly upon hearing the words, "Your Majesty wants to summon them?"

"Yes!"

After the guard finished speaking, he waited aside, ready to lead these people.

Haiqing also breathed a sigh of relief at this moment? These people have asked him countless times, asking when the Holy Majesty will summon him.

How did he know when the Holy Majesty would summon them? Every time he answered? It was just a few perfunctory words.

Hearing the news now? But he was so happy that he quickly waved to the envoys beside him to get them ready.

After the envoys realized it, their faces were filled with joy, and then they hurriedly followed behind and walked towards the palace.

"Tell me, what kind of place does the monarch here live in?"

"I don't know, but before, I heard that it was in a place called the Imperial Palace, which is extremely magnificent and beautiful."

When everyone on the side heard the words, they shook their heads directly, with a bit of puzzlement on their faces, but they also said more.

Anyway, I'll see it soon, so I'll know when I take a look.

The rest of the people thought it was the same, so they didn't ask any more questions.

After a while, a group of people finally came to the palace.

The vermilion walls and the endless palace immediately made them dumbfounded.

I already had some expectations when I came, but I still feel shocked when I look at it now.

Does the monarch here live in such a place?

The guards in front led the way and led these people to the outside of Chengtian Hall smoothly.

But at this moment, the envoys have not yet reacted, and are still immersed in what they have just seen.

After leading the people outside the palace, Haiqing didn't make any other movements.

It is said to be summoned, but it is to call them over in advance. When they are summoned, they need to see the Holy Majesty. At this time, they need to wait outside.

In Chengtian Hall, Lu Chensheng was looking at the memorial.

"This voyage has brought a lot of benefits. The total amount of silver and gold is 5803 million taels. These are all provided by the superior, not to mention the share of the transaction."

The share of the transaction needs to be shared with those aristocratic families, so Lu Chensheng naturally didn't mention it.

And this nearly 600 million silver is the total income of the court.

Hearing this amount, Li Daifu, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, was overjoyed. In this way, the national treasury has been enriched again!

The rest of the ministers were overjoyed when they heard this. With so much money, next time they ask for money, there is no reason for the other party to refuse, right?

They need a place to ask for money, and they have been blocked by the other party for a long time.

"Xinghan Yongchang, Saint Shang Yongchang!"

The ministers congratulated in unison, feeling extremely excited.

In addition to the silver income, there will be a record in the history books at that time. Xinghan was founded three years ago, and all nations came to offer sacrifices. This kind of scene is not something that has happened before.

Moreover, these envoys are all from overseas.

The prestige of the Xinghan Empire spread far and wide overseas. Has anyone seen such a scene?

Lu Chensheng had a smile on his face. What made him happiest was that this time Haiqing came back with a lot of food and seeds.

Next year, the planting of corn and peanuts can be promoted directly. If there are no accidents, this small glacier can already pass through safely.

In addition, Haiqing also brought back a lot of rubber tree sap, which is rubber!

In this way, the technology of Xinghan Empire can finally take a big step forward!

"Well, there are a lot of tributes this time, let the envoys of various countries meet."

With a wave of Lu Chensheng's hand, the inner guard responded and went out to deliver the decree, and Hai Qing directly led the envoys from various countries into Chengtian Palace.

High, luxurious, atmospheric!

This is the first impression of the envoys who have just stepped here.

Chengtian Hall is extremely huge, and it is extremely spacious at first glance.

The officials inside, all wearing official uniforms, have a strong aura.

When the envoys came in, they all looked over with scrutiny.

The envoys were attracted by this hall.

So luxurious!

In addition, it is extremely cool inside. When they were outside, they were exposed to the sun, but now they came in very refreshingly, and the temperature dropped immediately.
