Kang Cheng's expression didn't change, his eyes looked at Chu Ze unchanged, and he didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with what he said.
After Chu Ze finished complaining, he said: "Since I can propose it, I can naturally come up with it."
"That won't work, we don't believe it." Chu Ze wouldn't do anything without guarantees, "Unless you have something extra to add. For this lucky draw alone, it's okay not to take this bet."
Kang Cheng's eyes flashed with annoyance.
"That's it. As long as you agree, I can write a document to you." He refused to add more.
"It's up to you whether you want to add it or not."
Chu Ze looked at him and sneered: "Is this why you bet again?" Chu Ze raised his hand and showed the wrench in his hand, "You want this thing now, not us. , since you can’t come up with anything that can impress us, there’s no need to talk anymore.”
Anyway, it’s not you who is anxious.
Chu Ze was very calm.
But Kang Cheng couldn't calm down.
Chu Ze was right. The reason why he made this bet was to get back his thumb.
Even if he bets the national treasure, he will not hesitate.
This finger ring has been passed down from generation to generation by Ryukyu's national masters.
If it were lost from his hands, he would be infamy for eternity.
Although he can no longer hear after death, he is still alive now.
Returning to Ryukyu, whether he can keep his position as national master is a question.
Even if he could survive, he would still be stabbed in the spine.
Kang Cheng has always had a high self-esteem, and he cannot accept such a result.
That's why he asked for another bet.
But now he can't impress Chu Ze even with the nine-layer hollow exquisite ball, which makes him very embarrassed.
Kang Cheng gritted his teeth, a trace of desperation flashed in his eyes: "Then what do you want?"
Chu Ze's eyes lit up vaguely.
The initiative is now in his hands.
What do I need...
Chu Ze was thinking in his mind.
He thought for a while and suddenly said: "We want your Luo Xing mineral deposit in Ryukyu."
"impossible!"
The moment the words "Luo Xing Deposit" came out of Chu Ze's mouth, Kang Cheng stood up and refused without thinking: "You are wishful thinking!" He took the nine-layer hollow It was already a very bold thing for Linglong Ball to make a bet, and now Chu Ze actually wanted the largest gold mine in Ryukyu.
How can this be!
It’s impossible to even dream!
Chu Ze had already guessed that he would not agree.
Looking at the excited Kang Cheng, Chu Ze waved to him and motioned for him to sit down first: "What are you in a hurry? You haven't heard about our bargaining chip yet. As long as you agree, you will provide our Ming Dynasty with five gold deposits for free every year." Qian You and other horses are betting, and if we lose, not only can I return this ring to you, but I can also give you another blueprint of the most lethal ship in the world today."
The shipbuilding industry in the Ming Dynasty was very developed.
Especially during Yongle's reign.
The famous Zheng He in history lived at this time.
The largest ship in the fleet led by Zheng He at that time had a displacement comparable to that of a modern warship.
Its degree of development can be seen as average.
Kang Cheng: "..."
It was undeniable that Kang Cheng was moved again.
But this was a big deal, and he couldn't make the decision himself.
He needed to ask his king.
Chu Ze asked him to ask very understandingly.
As soon as he left, Chu Ze immediately asked Zhao Si to prepare pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
He wants to write a letter.
Zhu Yuanzhang must be told about this.
But when he picked up the pen and finished the ink, Chu Ze hesitated again.
This is just the beginning, and there is no definite answer from Ryukyu yet.
He will tell Zhu Yuanzhang about this now. What if the other party doesn't agree?
No, the other party will definitely agree.
Not only will they agree, but they may also increase their bargaining chips.
The most likely thing is to have weapons.
Chu Ze weighed it in his mind and decided to write.
Along with Chu Ze's letter, Kang Cheng's letter also flew towards Ryukyu.
…
In the imperial study room, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the book in his hand with a solemn expression.
"Father, what do you think about this matter?"
Zhu Cang also read the letter. After reading it, Zhu Biao just wanted to say that Chu Ze was so courageous.
He dares to agree to anything. Such a big matter can be settled with others in just a few words.
He even knew what the other party might do, so he called them for help.
Of course, Zhu had to admit that the results Chu Ze said were very tempting.
Gold mine.
That's real money.
Who would mind having too much money?
Only a fool would think too much money.
This is also the reason why Zhu Yuanzhang was hesitant.
What worries Zhu Yuanzhang the most is whether Chu Ze can win.
If you lose...
Zhu Yuanzhang refused to imagine the consequences.
"Chu Ze is really getting more and more bold." Zhu Yuanzhang looked at this thin piece of paper and gritted his teeth.
Zhu Biao was silent.
"If we win this bet, we will definitely get great benefits." Zhu Yuanzhang said thoughtfully, "Even if we lose, we will only lose a few drawings at most." Zhu Biao has said before that losing the drawings is not a problem. Importantly, as long as Chu Ze is still there, they are not afraid, but there will always be reluctance.
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, weighed it again and again, gritted his teeth and said: "It is my secret decree that within one month all alleys in Fujian will be strictly inspected on all the people coming and going, especially those coming from Ryukyu. Except for the one who sent a letter to Kang Cheng, all other people will be inspected." No one is allowed in."
Since they wanted to bet, they had to ensure that no one else would affect Chu Ze's bet.
As for them...
Chu Ze's letter said that they should try not to interfere.
This "try your best" is very interesting.
Zhu Yuanzhang estimated the limit of "as much as possible" and decided to ask the Fujian Chief Envoy to keep an eye on the movements in Fuzhou.
When necessary, help a bunch of Chu Ze.
Other times, you just need to follow Chu Ze's arrangements.
After doing all this, Zhu Yuanzhang wrote another secret letter, asking Zhao Shifa to keep an eye on Chu Ze.
Zhu Biao watched Zhu Yuanzhang finish arranging everything, and then said: "Father, if Chu Ze makes such a big move, do you need your son to go over and watch it in person?"
This matter already concerns the two countries, and Zhu Biao is also a little worried.
Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and said: "You are the prince, your status is too public and inappropriate. Let the fourth child go."
Zhu Di can also be an emperor in the future, and he must have a good brain.
Moreover, he is also a prince, so his status is not too high.
It will not make the Ryukyu side too uneasy.
If Zhu Biao passes by, it will be too conspicuous.
The main reason is that Zhu Yuanzhang is afraid that something will happen to his good son.
Every day closer to Chu Ze's estimated time, Zhu Yuanzhang became more worried.
Now I wish I could hold my son in my hands as an offering, so how can I rest assured that he will run outside?
Zhu Biao didn't think about it.
But my father was right, the prince was better than the prince.
Moreover, Zhu Di had a good relationship with Chu Ze, so he could deceive others by going there under the pretext of looking for Chu Ze.
"In that case, let's go and inform the fourth child now."
After Zhu Biao finished speaking, he stood up and left.
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly stopped him and said: "Tell Zhu Di to be smarter. If he loses this time, he will not come back to see us."
Zhu Biao smiled and said, "Yes."
