    From the moment he boarded the ship, Zhu Gaoxu had been muttering about going to the big island that Fang Xing mentioned, but the first stop of the fleet was to Champa.

    There was a Ming Dynasty garrison in the city. When the fleet came into view, the king of the city had already rushed to the seaside and was waiting with his men.

    "Is Eunuch Zheng here? Okay!"

    "The country just happened to have some things stocked up, and we also caught some rare birds and animals, and they are just waiting for the fleet."

    The head of the Champa Kingdom was beaming with joy. According to past practice, after condolences came trading, but those rare birds and animals were an exception. Zheng He would definitely pay a heavy reward in exchange.

    Especially rhinoceros horns, ivory and Canaan incense, these are all things that Ming people liked and can be regarded as tribute.

    There are three hundred Ming troops stationed here, led by a deputy Qianhu named Wang Bian.

    Wang Bian had an interpreter who was simultaneously translating the words of those officials. Wang Bian listened helplessly.

    "The Ming Dynasty is the country of Shang Dynasty. There are some things that we can only turn a blind eye to. Besides, the goods traded here can be sold at a good price back home. In the end, the Ming Dynasty made a profit."

    The fleet was approaching slowly, with many sails blocking the view.  In this sea area, Zheng He was the only one with such a scale, so the king led people forward and stood at the edge of the dock.

    The king looked at it carefully and said in confusion: "Why are there so many ships this time?"

    As the treasure ship began to dock, Wang led his people to pick it up and collect the cable.

    After the pedals were set up, the drums on the boat started to play loudly, and soon Zheng He appeared at the head.

    The lord of the country should go over first, preparing to receive the decree, but when he saw Zheng He getting on the pier and turning around to give way to the people behind him, he was suddenly shocked.

    who?

    The king's eyes turned and he saw a tall man wearing a Jiuzhang crown uniform. This man did not walk on the plank when he came ashore, but jumped directly up. After landing, his right foot felt a little uncomfortable.

    This is the prince of Ming Dynasty!

    The leader of the Champa Kingdom, who had already collected many rules of the Ming Dynasty, remembered what happened last time and hurriedly brought people forward to salute.

    And the king also came. He saluted and said, "I have met your highness, I have met Eunuch Zheng, and I have met your uncle."

    "you know me?"

    Zhu Gaoxu was impatient and waved his hand as if it was done. Fang Xing went over and asked Wang Bian.

    The king said excitedly: "Uncle, I came all the way from Jiaozhi to change my shift."

    Unless they are new arrivals, there are few garrison troops in Jiaozhi who don¡¯t know Fang Xing.

    Fang Xing nodded and asked a few questions casually. Zheng He over there was about to announce his decree.

    I don¡¯t know which old gentleman made the decree, but he wrote it in such a colorful way that it makes people feel sleepy after listening to it.

    ¡ª¡ªDa Ming is here again to visit you.  You should be good

    After reading out the decree, the king was already a little scared. He stood up and glanced at Fang Xing behind him, then smiled and invited the envoys to enter the palace.

    He waved, and someone pulled his chariot over.

    The so-called imperial chariot is a small cart pulled by two oxen. Zhu Gaoxu just shook his head at the invitation.

    When the decree was read out, someone had already brought a few horses ashore. Zhu Gaoxu and others got on the horses, and the king got on the bullock cart and went all the way to the palace.

    The buildings we saw along the way were all short, and you basically had to lower your head to enter. After seeing the tall palace, the feeling of depression finally dissipated.

    After entering and sitting down, Zheng He kept the matter of exploring the waterway in mind, so he exchanged a few brief greetings, and then asked someone to bring the list for the king to take a look at.

    This is just a program. How can the king understand it? The interpreter on the side is introducing everything, and someone beside the king writes it down with chalk on the sheepskin.

    After the translation, there was a banquet, mainly mutton and chicken, and the wine was served in jars.

    There was also a jar of wine placed in front of Fang Xing. The lees inside were clearly rice wine, and the wine was turbid.

    An attendant brought a thin bamboo tube. Fang Xing inserted the bamboo tube into the jar without any instruction. Then, after the leader of the country took a sip, the banquet began.

    Fang Xing took a sip of wine. The wine was mixed with fermented rice and was quite delicious.

    The cooking method of mutton and chicken was a bit unsatisfactory. Fang Xing reluctantly ate a few pieces of meat. Then he saw a plate of nuts and ate them. It tasted like chestnuts.

    Wang Jinghong beside him said in a low voice: "This is the core of jackfruit. Uncle Xinghe can take more back if he wants."

    Fang Xing nodded to express his thanks, but didn¡¯t want to take it with him. He didn¡¯t know what this thing would do.?What are the side effects?

    After drinking for a while, the king above started chatting with Zheng He. As for Zhu Gaoxu, he didn't dare to take a second look.

    Fang Xing didn¡¯t pay attention until Zheng He¡¯s tone changed. Then he put down the bamboo tube and looked over with everyone.

    "The king is overly worried. Before he came out, his majesty told him that people's livelihood in various countries is difficult, and hunting down exotic animals will cause many casualties and cost a lot of money. So from now on, these things should be stopped."

    The leader of the country said through the interpreter: "But this is the wish of the country! Is the Ming Dynasty so rigid?"

    This statement is somewhat direct, and there is no roundabout meaning at all.

    Zheng He's eyes turned away and gradually became colder, and he said: "Your Majesty's decree has been issued. The Ming Dynasty's feelings for your country are on the ship. If the king likes it, it can be exchanged, but it must be gold and silver, and the ship."  The team will buy some food, and this is included in it.¡±

    Zhu Gaoxu had finished drinking a jar of wine, and just when he felt that the hospitality here was not thorough, an attendant came with an earthen jar.

    When Zhu Gaoxu saw him pouring something into the wine jar, he thought it was wine, but when he took a sip, he found that it was actually water.

    "Business is business. If Ming Dynasty were not here, Jiaozhi would have come here long ago!"

    When they were on the boat, Zheng He and Fang Xing repeatedly advised and reminded Zhu Gaoxu to pay attention to some etiquette. Who would have thought that Zhu Gaoxu, who was not happy, would go crazy.

    When the king heard this, he immediately panicked and hurriedly agreed to trade.

    Zhu Gaoxu wanted to break the bamboo tube in his hand, but finally held back. He saw that the officials who occupied the city used bamboo tubes to stir the wine jars, so he followed suit. After taking a sip, he couldn't help but said: "Fang Xing, please get some."  Here comes the wine.¡±

    Stirring the lees below, this is Erdao wine, but it is bland and tasteless.

    Fang Xing blinked and whispered: "Your Highness, at least wait until you get back before you drink."

    The host is having a banquet, and you actually think that wine is not good and you have to bring your own wine. This is a slap in the face.

    The interpreter on the king's side had already told him Zhu Gaoxu's words, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

    Fang Xing ate the core of the jackfruit nonchalantly and said, "The guest does as the host does, and the host does as the guest does. You can adapt to whatever you want."

    Daming couldn¡¯t lose his face, so no matter how inappropriate Zhu Gaoxu said, Fang Xing had to help him save it.

    The king nodded stiffly. Among the Ming Dynasty envoys, the one he feared most was Fang Xing.

    ¡° Then someone brought Daming¡¯s fine wine, and the atmosphere finally became lively again.

    When everyone was drunk, Zheng He took the opportunity to finalize the details of the trade with the king, and then prepared to leave.

    The leader of the country whispered something to Zheng He, and then everyone left.

    After leaving the palace, Zheng He said: "It is said that the local zombies have done evil recently, so let us be careful."

    ????????? Then Zheng He explained about the corpse-headed man: It¡¯s a woman, a woman without pupils, her head will fly around at night, and she will go away after smelling feces, and then the evil spirit can invade people¡¯s stomachs.

    "It is said that if someone moves the headless body, the head will fly back and the body cannot be found, and the corpse head will be dead."

    Fang Xing felt a chill all over his body. Looking at Zhu Gaoxu, he was very excited.

    After returning to the arranged residence, everyone washed and rested, except Zhu Gaoxu who had to drag Fang Xing along with him.

    So when everyone saw Fang Xing¡¯s eyes were numb and he was yawning profusely the next morning, they couldn¡¯t help but laugh.

    Fang Xing was also helpless. He kept watch all night, not even a single fly was seen, let alone any corpse-headed barbarian.  But Zhu Gaoxu fell asleep like a dead person as soon as the child was over, leaving him to stay overnight.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
