Chapter 1372: Greedy Box

Mrs. Qing left with a sullen face, and Shen Long was not worried that she would retaliate against Singapore when she went to other sea areas to conquer the entire sea. She would not act rashly until she had the strength to defeat the King of the Seven Seas, and he A sufficiently strong defense system has also been deployed in Singapore, capable of withstanding any enemy attack.

However, after Mrs. Qing left, Shen Long did not set sail immediately, and the envoy of the shogunate had to visit again to ask Shen Long's intentions. Shen Long sat on a high chair and looked down at the envoy on the deck, "Because your Because of this, I have consumed more gunpowder, shells and time, don’t these need compensation?”

After finishing speaking, Shen Long waved, and Arya held a small box, "My conditions are not harsh, as long as you fill this small box with gold!"

The messenger raised his eyes, took a quick glance at the box, then quickly lowered his head, secretly calculating how much gold the box could hold, and then heaved a sigh of relief, how much gold could be held in such a small box, he quickly responded Said, "This is what it should be, I will go ashore and bring gold here!"

"Well, if you are aware of current affairs, remember, it is still based on noon time. Before noon arrives, you must bring enough gold to fill this box, otherwise I will leave for Osaka and Edo, and ask you Your general asks for the gold." Shen Long nodded and let him leave.

When the envoy came back, besides gold, he also brought fresh water, fresh vegetables and other necessary supplies on board, and said with a smile, "These are just our little wishes, and I hope His Royal Highness Shao Feng will accept them."

"Well, then you can start filling this box with gold now!" Shen Long was very satisfied with their attitude, although there was no shortage of these on the ship, Arya put the box in front of the messenger, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, The expression on his face will be very exciting later, right?

"These are the high-quality gold coins from the Qingchang period, and we dare not give you the inferior ones from the Yuanlu period." The envoy opened the box he carried with him, and it was full of thin round gold coins.

This is the gold coin commonly used in the Edo period of Japan. Each weighs one tael. After the Sekigahara War, the Tokugawa clan established a new currency system with Qingcho gold and silver, and it was placed in the gold seats of Edo, Kyoto, Suruga and other places. A large number of "Qing Chang Xiao Ping" and "Yi Fen Ping" were minted. As the national common currency, the gold content of Jin Xiao Ping during this period was relatively high, but in the Yuanlu period, the quality declined, so the envoy specifically explained a sentence.

The box carried by the envoy was much larger than the box Arya sent to him. He had already left some spare space in preparation, fearing that the lack of gold he carried would anger Shen Long. Put it in Shen Long's box, but seeing that the Jin Xiaopan he brought was getting smaller and smaller, and the box in front of him was still not full, the smile on his face gradually froze.

"Haha!" Arya couldn't help laughing, she knew that Shen Long had cast the space expansion spell in the box, and the volume of the box was not as small as the envoy imagined.

"His Royal Highness Shao Feng! This, this, this..." The messenger's fingers began to tremble. His Jin Xiaopan had already been packed, but looking down from the opening, the box was only covered with a thin layer. It would take the entire box to fill up. How much gold!

"You were very straightforward when you promised me before, do you want to go back on your word now?" Shen Long asked coldly, "Or do you want me to go to Edo to ask your general for gold?"

"No, no, no, no, no, I'll go back and prepare more gold!" The envoy replied sweating profusely.

I didn't expect there to be such a greedy box that couldn't be filled. I made a big mistake this time, and I have to plead guilty by harakiri, but before I do harakiri, I have to send away this terrible pirate general in front of me!

The messenger went back again, and when he came back again, he changed to a bigger ship. A group of warriors came to the King of the Seven Seas carrying boxes full of gold one by one. They opened the boxes one by one and poured the gold on the On the deck, let the envoys continue to stuff the boxes, and at the same time, all of them stared wide-eyed, watching this miraculous scene.

Even though the box is so big, why can’t it be filled with gold that is several times larger than the volume of the box? This must be the use of black magic, right?

The second batch of gold still did not fill up the box, and then another ship sent the third batch of gold. The gold sent this time was not only Qingchang Xiaopan, but the poor quality Genroku Xiaopan and gold coins from the Netherlands. , gold coins from the East India Company, and gold ingots from mainland China.

"His Royal Highness Shao Feng, please forgive me, all the Qingchang Xiaosan in Nagasaki City have been sent before! There are only these left in the city now." The envoy kowtowed and begged for forgiveness.

Shen Long waved his hand, and he continued to pour a box of gold into Shen Long's box, but this box was just like the stomach of the gluttonous ghost in Shimane's legend, and it couldn't be filled no matter what.

Five batches of ships transporting gold came, and the gold in the entire city of Nagasaki had been emptied, and the box was still not full. In the end, Shen Long generously told them that the remaining space could be replaced by silver.

So Nagasaki sent several more ships to bring in countless silver, only to barely see the silver piled up on the edge of the box, Shen Long left in satisfaction.

The envoy knelt on his boat in despair, looking at the sails of the King of the Seven Seas from a distance, knowing that the King of the Seven Seas had disappeared below the sea level, so he turned to Nagasaki, drew out a short knife and stabbed himself in the abdomen...

"Nagasaki's century-old accumulation has been snatched away, does he think that seppuku can atone for his sins?" The samurai who was traveling with him said indifferently.

This incident gradually spread in the Japanese country, and the story became more and more mysterious, and finally formed a special proverb called "Shao Feng's box", which was used to exaggerately describe the other party's greed.

"Let's go back to Singapore to put down the gold first, and then go to the Indian Ocean to continue looting!" Shen Long's words made the sailors on the ship laugh wildly. All the looting adds up to a lot!

Shen Long glanced at the direction of Nagasaki, and said softly, "It feels so good to be able to conquer a country by setting up a few cannons on the coastline!"

The King of the Seven Seas cut through the waves all the way, and soon returned to Singapore. When Shen Long took out a small box and claimed that it was his own harvest, the subordinates who stayed behind were a little embarrassed. The head of the family, you only snatched it once you went out. this thing?
