It is 2.2 million light-years away from Blue Star.
You can see this is a bright galaxy.
Galaxies are composed of billions of stars and large amounts of gas and dust.
It looks like a vortex with a raised center, and many blue and red supernovae can be seen around it.
Moreover, this galaxy is still radiating bright light.
This is the Andromeda Nebula M31.
"Zizzizi!"
But at this moment, M31, which is as bright as a star, is flickering on and off as if the wires of a light bulb are short-circuited, which looks quite strange.
and.
In the protruding whirlpool area in the center, it was faintly visible that the void seemed to be torn apart.
Suddenly a gap opened.
The gap is very small, not even the size of a palm.
But behind this gap, one can see a blood-red eye full of greed and violence.
"I am coming soon, and this universe will usher in a terrible disaster!"
The owner with blood-red eyes spoke human words in a hoarse tone.
Wait until it has finished speaking.
The cracks in the void quickly closed again.
The M31 shines brightly again.
Everything seemed to be calm again.
Dragon Kingdom, Longjing.
aerospace sector.
One by one, the aerospace staff were discussing.
Just now, they used a modern astronomical telescope to observe the Andromeda Nebula M31, which was actually a little different than before.
"M31 flickers on and off, what does this mean?"
"The Great Nebula M31 has always been bright, but why did something like this happen this time?"
"Is this just an accident?"
"Let's not look for trouble. Maybe this is a very common and normal astronomical phenomenon."
"Speaking of which, in the investment world of "Da Ming", how much money have you made?"
"I invested in investment stocks Xu Da and Chang Yuchun, and I made a profit! Especially Chang Yuchun really scared me to death. I thought he would die on the way back home after catching the armor-removing wind."
"Unexpectedly, investors took advantage of the rare card number 79 White Angel Card to help Chang Yuchun, and Chang Yuchun was able to survive!"
…
At first, these aerospace scholars were discussing galaxies, nebulae, and the cosmic environment. However, the more they discussed, the more they went off topic, and they actually started discussing the investment world of "The Ming Dynasty".
A similar scene.
Happening all over the Dragon Kingdom.
A small number of astronomy enthusiasts have used astronomical telescopes to observe the light changes of the Andromeda Nebula M31, but they have not taken it seriously.
The theme song of this era has always been investment.
Investment is the main theme of the times, and it is also the topic that people are most concerned about.
The next day, morning.
Ye Xiao went to class as usual, and he didn't take the E-class cosmic crisis incident seriously.
If he wanted to resolve this crisis, it would be a piece of cake.
There are still about 11 hours before the crisis event arrives.
In the classroom, every subject teacher was slobbering all over the place, and they were very serious and dedicated in their lectures.
However, the students in the class were all drowsy after listening to it. It was obvious that most of the students were not interested in those cultural courses.
After getting into class with class teacher Zhang Guofei.
Only then did the students cheer up.
Because, class teacher Zhang Guofei began to analyze the investment world of "Da Ming" again.
Analyze one investment stock after another.
These investment stocks all belong to the founding fathers of the Ming Dynasty.
Among them, there are also some strange people and strange things.
For example, Shen Wansan, the richest man in Jiangnan, and Shi Naian, the author of "Water Margin", unfortunately Shi Naian passed away not long ago.
Under the leadership of Zhang Guofei, the students observed the investment stock Shen Wansan.
They were all curious about Shen Wansan's order.
What will be the fate of such a rich man and a businessman?
Will he spend his life in peace, or may his family be ruined?
[Text observation Shen Wansan, consuming 1 red crystal]
[Shen Wansan is terrified]
[Shen Wansan is afraid]
[Shen Wansan is unwilling to give in]
A few simple lines of text entered the field of vision of all the students. From these words, it is not difficult to see that Shen Wansan's emotions seemed to be very tangled.
But the students were confused.
What is a big businessman like Shen Wansan worried about, afraid of, or unwilling to accept?
Zhang Guofei continued to control the system.
Two more lines of projected text appear.
[Video observation of Shen Wansan, consuming 10 red crystals]
[Shen Wansan is extremely wealthy! 】
"Hiss!"
Even though every student here knew that Shen Wansan was particularly wealthy, they still took a breath when they saw such a video title.
"Shen Wansan won't end up miserable, right?"
"Does Zhu Yuanzhang hate the rich?"
"It seems that there is a real possibility. Zhu Yuanzhang was born as a farmer, and sometimes he is very petty and holds grudges. Shen Wansan is afraid..."
"It's hard to say. A smart businessman like Shen Wansan will definitely end up with a happy ending!"
…
The students had a heated discussion, and the vast majority of them believed that Shen Wansan would definitely be able to live his life peacefully.
【Video playback】
Yingtian, Shen Mansion.
You can see that this is a very magnificent and majestic house.
Exquisite flower beds, rockeries, ponds, pavilions, and all kinds of exotic flowers and plants can be seen everywhere in this house.
The main hall of the house.
There are some expensive furniture everywhere, some valuable candlesticks, silverware, ceramics and other decorations.
Among them, there are two figures in the main hall.
One person is an old man with an old face.
This old man is none other than Shen Wansan.
Today, Shen Wansan is silently flipping through the Shen family's account books for this year.
Next to Shen Wansan stood a young man with an upright posture and a gorgeous brocade robe.
This young man's name is Shen Rong, and he is Shen Wansan's son.
As he kept flipping through the account books, Shen Wansan's brows were furrowed very tightly, giving him a completely sad expression.
His performance made Shen Rong a little confused.
"Dad, why do you look so ugly? Our Shen family has made a lot of money over the years. Especially our overseas trade is going very smoothly."
Shen Rong looked happy.
In the past, he was not very familiar with overseas trade, but now he has a deep understanding of it.
He really has a very warm heart.
Because silk, porcelain and other specialties from the south of the Yangtze River are often shipped overseas, and their value immediately increases, directly increasing ten times, twenty times, thirty times...
In this way, it also brought one amazing fortune after another to the Shen family.
It can be said that no one can shake the Shen family's status as the richest man in Jiangnan. It cannot be shaken.
"My son, do you think our Shen family is as rich as the rest of the country?"
Suddenly, Shen Wansan said something out of nowhere.
"Dad is right, the wealth of my Shen family is more than the imperial court's annual taxes!!!"
Shen Rong said with pride and pride.
These words are not nonsense, but the confidence given to him by the Shen family!
"Our Shen family is so wealthy. If His Majesty is interested in you, what will our Shen family do in the future?"
Shen Wansan's face sank and he said solemnly.
"Dad, how could this be? Since His Majesty came to the throne, our Shen family has donated thousands of ingots of silver and hundreds of catties of gold every year. Even the money and food for raising horses in the army have been provided by our Shen family. Isn't Your Majesty still not satisfied?"
Shen Rong frowned.
"Your Majesty is the most powerful person in the world. Do you think your Majesty will be satisfied?"
Shen Wansan sighed and said.
"Swish!"
In an instant, Shen Rong's expression changed drastically, and he was completely out of breath.
"If this is the case, Dad, what should our Shen family do in the future?"
Shen Rong's performance obviously made Shen Wansan a little unhappy.
"My son, after a hundred years, you will be in charge of the Shen family. But how can you be the head of the family in such a panic?"
Shen Wansan looked worried, feeling that if the Shen family was handed over to Shen Rong in the future, Shen Rong would destroy the Shen family's huge family business!
"Dad, I know I was wrong."
Shen Rong said quickly, also with his head lowered, not daring to look at Shen Wansan.
"Go down, dad, be alone for a while."
Shen Wansan said with a cold face, waving his hand.
"My child, please leave."
Shen Rong bowed and left silently.
When Shen Wansan was the only one left in the hall, Shen Wansan began to think silently.
"Emperors have always been ruthless and suspicious by nature."
"The most ruthless emperor's family."
"Can our Shen family be safe and sound?"
He was thinking, thinking about how to deal with it.
Seeing such video footage, the students had different expressions.
"If you don't have long-term worries, you will always have immediate worries. Shen Wansan is planning for the future of the Shen family!"
"Shen Wansan's consideration is completely unnecessary. Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, granted great titles to meritorious officials, and rewarded meritorious officials with iron certificates of elixirs. There is no way he would be a stingy person!"
"Shen Wansan thinks too much! He is just asking for trouble!"
"Hey! The video screen has changed again!"
…
The students were discussing it endlessly, but they were also full of surprises.
But it's because of this day.
As the emperor of Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang actually came to Shen's house as a guest in person.
The Shen family entertained me warmly, and a variety of delicacies from the mountains and seas were served one after another during the dinner.
Shen Wansan even introduced the dishes on the table.
"Wanshan, you are so polite to us."
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was tasting the delicious food, grinned and looked very friendly.
"Your Majesty, if the common people are not polite enough, I hope your Majesty will bear with you."
Shen Wansan saluted quickly, his attitude was extremely respectful.
"Wan Shan, tell us how you became the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River. Nowadays, the whole Ming Dynasty is full of rumors that you are the reincarnation of the God of Wealth!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was all smiles.
"It's a lucky thing that ordinary people can have the wealth they have today."
“Only by ordinary people working hard to make a fortune, others donating money, and overseas trade can we have the wealth we have today.”
Regarding Zhu Yuanzhang, Shen Wansan did not dare to hide anything, and also told him many things that made him rich in detail.
His answer also satisfied Zhu Yuanzhang.
At least, Zhu Yuanzhang knew all the information about Shen Wansan, so he could intuitively judge that in front of him, Shen Wansan, the richest man in Jiangnan, was quite honest.
"What's the name of this dish?"
At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang locked his eyes on a plate of dishes and spoke unhurriedly.
Shen Wansan was about to introduce the dishes to Zhu Yuanzhang, but he immediately changed his mind.
But it's because this dish is made of pig's trotters.
Now, since Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, the entire Ming Dynasty has been particularly taboo about using words with the same pronunciation as "Zhu".
If he said the word "pig's trotters", he would probably make Zhu Yuanzhang unhappy and be convicted.
"Pig's trotters" even represents disrespect.
"Your Majesty, this dish is called Wansan Hoof."
Although Shen Wansan is old, he still shows a smart and alert side.
"Okay! What a great Wan San Ho!"
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.
After that, he laughed.
Seeing the joyful Zhu Yuanzhang, Shen Wansan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Who would have thought that before he could take a breath, Zhu Yuanzhang would ask again how to eat the Wansan Hoof.
"It's such a big piece of Wansan Hoof, we can't just grab it and eat it, right?"
Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.
In an instant, Shen Wansan realized that Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to be making things difficult for him.
If you want to eat the thousands of hooves in front of you, you need to cut them open with a knife.
But if he used a weapon like a knife in front of the emperor, he would definitely be charged.
So.
Shen Wansan quickly started thinking.
Within two breaths he was paying attention.
But he saw Shen Wansan pull out a few slender bones from Wansan's hoof.
Then.
Using the bone as a knife, he could easily cut through the Wansan Hoof in front of him.
"Your Majesty, please taste these ten thousand three hooves."
Shen Wansan's tone was respectful, but he was secretly relieved in his heart, as if he had escaped danger again.
Zhu Yuanzhang tasted the meat slices cut from Wansan's hoof.
The mouthfeel is tender and smooth.
"Okay! It's really delicious! It's comparable to the food in Guanglu Temple!"
Zhu Yuanzhang praised him.
Guanglu Temple, Shen Wansan also knew, was the official office in charge of the emperor's meals.
"Your Majesty is overly complimentary."
Shen Wansan looked humble.
"Wan San, our Yingtian Mansion city wall has long been in tatters after several battles in the past and cannot withstand the enemy. Therefore, we want to build a city wall."
"It's just that building this wall requires a huge amount of assets, but the Ming Dynasty has just been established, and there is a lot of waste waiting to be done. There is no money in our treasury, and the treasury is so poor that it can run away with rats."
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed, showing that he was in a bad mood.
this moment.
Shen Wansan finally understood that Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was indeed a bad person and a good person never came.
"The common people are willing to help your majesty solve your problems and help your majesty build the city wall!"
Shen Wansan was very cooperative, but he also wanted to spend money to eliminate the disaster.
Faced with Shen Wansan's generous performance, Zhu Yuanzhang was very satisfied.
"I don't know, how can Wansan help us build the city wall?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked.
"The common people are willing to help His Majesty build one-tenth of the Yingtianfu city wall!"
Shen Wansan spoke. Although he was very old, his voice was very loud.
one tenth!
Yingtianfu city wall!
These simple words made Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes shrink.
really.
This Shen Wansan is really extremely rich.
Zhu Yuanzhang was very satisfied with Shen Wansan's answer, but as an emperor he was very greedy.
one tenth!
not enough!
He still wants to force Shen Wansan!
"Swish!"
For a moment, Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned gloomy.
Seeing this, Shen Wansan felt extremely frightened and nervous, thinking that his answer might not be dissatisfactory to His Majesty?
If so.
The Shen family is about to face a terrible disaster!
"The common people still have some money left at home, so the common people can still build one-tenth of the Yingtianfu city wall!"
Shen Wansan replied with a respectful tone.
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes twitched. Shen Wansan alone was able to build one-fifth of the city wall.
This is great!
For a time, Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely happy.
He had always wanted to repair the city wall, but he had no money.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely happy in his heart, he still looked very cold on the surface.
This made Shen Wansan very uneasy and panicked.
Simply.
Shen Wansan gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "The common people are willing to sell their property and repair one-third of the Yingtian Mansion city wall for Your Majesty!" (End of this chapter)
