"Which boat did you put the Dutch cow on?" asked the son-in-law.

"Then what kind of cows are too expensive, how can there be cows with barbaric bodies and spots! And they can't work, so I put them together with pigs." Obviously, Princess Daming's aesthetics is a bit different.

In fact, the fine breeds that came back with them were not the first batch. The first batch of various fine breeds had already returned to China three months ago.But because there are too many good varieties, there are three batches later.These fine European breeds were transported to China with Jiu'er and the others.

What is the real good stuff?

Is it territory?of course not.Zhu Youjian is not a war fanatic, nor does he need to expand blindly.

What Zhu Youjian likes is the good products in the world.In the current Daming, from the north to the north, and from the south to Australia, as long as there are good seeds, where can't they be planted?

Only these natural gifts can make the people of Daming rich.

From afar, Nanyang governor Shi Lang bowed his waist like a servant and came in front of the princess and son-in-law.

"Chen Shi Lang pays homage to the princess and son-in-law." Shi Lang had a flattering face.

"Get up! Are you Shi Lang?" Jiu'er doesn't like Shi Lang very much, and she has an indescribable feeling in her heart.But Jiu'er also knew that the person in front of him was really popular.

The governor of Nanyang sounds like a big official, and he manages a large territory, but in fact, there are not as many people in charge as a province in China.

But because the East India Company is on his territory, and Jiu'er is in charge of import and export trade, so it is inevitable that he will have more dealings with Shi Lang in the future.

Shi Lang is also a thief, of course he knows the importance of the princess in front of him.The development of Nanyang is inseparable from trade, so Shi Lang's real backer will still have to be this princess in the future.

"The little one prepared a little gift for the princess, please accept it with a smile." Shi Lang waved his hand, and the four maids brought up several trays.The cover was lifted gently, revealing a bright vessel inside, which seemed to be made of silver.

"Shi Lang, you really can't afford to invite people!" Zhang Tong said jokingly.

"My son-in-law, this is not silver, it's a special product of Java, tinware." Shi Lang introduced.

The main place of origin of tin mines is Nanyang, so what Shi Lang gave Jiu'er was a set of tin utensils.

As soon as Jiu'er heard it, he immediately looked carefully.She once heard Zhu Youjian introduce the use of tin, the most direct one being tin cans.This thing is soft, does not rust, and is metal.It can be used in many places.

"Shi Lang, you've found another way to get rich. I'll buy this thing as much as you have." Jiu'er finally gave Shi Lang an appreciative look.

Jiu'er's expression drove Shi Langle crazy. He came to Nanyang only to sell fruits and grains to China, and now he finally found a new product.

At the same time, it was tantamount to getting on the line of the princess, and Shi Lang was overjoyed.

"By the way, the emperor told me that the rubber tree to be planted in Nanyang has been successfully planted this year, and I don't know if it will take a few years to cut it down. Please ask the emperor on behalf of the humble minister what should be done." Seeing Jiu'er happy, Shi Lang also Shunzui wanted to give Jiuer the function of the rubber tree.

Zhu Youjian has already bought the seeds of the rubber tree from the Spaniards.Moreover, he specially wished Shi Lang a good life and cultivation.

Since this matter has been successful, Shi Lang asked Jiu'er to pass on the news, which is equivalent to giving Jiu'er a little credit.

"I don't want to take the credit of the governor for nothing. You'd better give my father a memorial. However, I heard my father mentioned that this rubber tree is not used for timber. It seems to be this kind of tree. A kind of white syrup, that thing is very valuable, more valuable than this thing." Jiu'er pointed to the tinware and said.

"Really? Thank you very much, Princess, for your guidance." Shi Lang's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing this.

He secretly admired Jiu'er in his heart, knowing that this princess is not easy to mess with, and someone who can see the benefits and not be easily tempted is definitely not an ordinary person.

On the other hand, Shi Lang really didn't know that the rubber tree was so precious.He came to see the princess today, and it can be said that he has gained a lot.

Chapter 642: The Arrival of Isaac Newton

Nanjing Xiaguan Wharf is still the most prosperous official wharf in Nanjing.

The Xiaguan Wharf was extremely lively on this day, and the people in the entire Nanjing City knew ten days ago that the princess and son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty were going back to China.Before that, Daming also went to Obaro, which was said to be thousands of miles away, but that was no news.Because people went to Wanli overseas as early as 200 years ago in Ming Dynasty.

But this time, what everyone wants to see more is actually the demeanor of the princess.To put it in more detail, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there has never been a strong woman who has caused a sensation in the whole country, let alone the royal family. To a certain extent, she represents the improvement of the status of this woman.Qin Liangyu's kind is another matter.

There are women who do business and can represent the country thousands of miles away to make a face, who doesn't want to squeeze forward to see her beauty.I heard that even the emperor will come to greet him in person, which is a rare event in the past two years.

In the distance, the big ship that the princess was riding on approached slowly from the lower reaches. At this time, the emperor's guard of honor had not yet arrived.After all, the status of the emperor is still higher, even if it is to greet him, he will not wait on the shore early.The crowds were so crowded that even the painted boats on the Qinhuai River were rowed to the edge of the Yangtze River. The top names in brothels were all eclipsed today.

"Look, the emperor is coming." Following the commotion of the crowd standing high, all the people looked south.

In the distance, a long row of golden and colorful four-wheeled carriages was walking in a long line towards the river.A group of guards in uniforms, wide-brimmed helmets, and shiny leather shoes ran forward quickly.They will automatically stand facing outwards in a standard military posture every two meters.If anyone doesn't open their eyes at this time, just looking at the gleaming bayonet in the guard's hand will restrain them a little.

"Kneel to meet the emperor." Someone in the crowd yelled, and the people on both sides of the Qinhuai River knelt together.

"Long live Long live Long live!"

The people's awe of the emperor is still the same as usual, which cannot be completely reversed by Zhu Youjian's casual words.In particular, the first is still the monarchy, and the thousands of years of kneeling etiquette cannot be changed just by saying.

Zhu Youjian looked at the people kneeling on the ground outside the window, and he didn't know how to feel.Although the people in front of them were full, they were still mentally numb.The self-confidence of the elite is still slowly recovering with the rise of Ming Dynasty, but the self-confidence of the common people still needs to be further cultivated.

If one day, the people of Ming Dynasty can run rampant on this earth, at that time, the people of Ming Dynasty will not have numb expressions on their faces.Zhu Youjian thought while watching.

"My son pays homage to my father." By the time Zhu Youjian came to the river, Jiu'er and Zhang Tongchang had already disembarked.

"Well, it's a little dark, but you're still in good spirits. Get in the car and go back by yourself!" Zhu Youjian just glanced at his daughter and son-in-law, his expression showing no interest at all.

"Father, don't you have anything to say?" Jiu'er looked unhappy. What does this mean?Could it be that my father didn't even have a heart-warming word after traveling all the way?

"Don't make trouble, I'm not here to see you." Zhu Youjian's eyes drifted over Jiu'er's head, obviously looking at someone.

"Father Emperor" Jiu'er was not reconciled, she deliberately blocked Zhu Youjian's sight, she couldn't think of anyone more important than her.

"Huh? What's the matter? Why don't you go back? Wang Chengen has prepared a lot of your favorite food." Zhu Youjian finally looked at Jiu'er, but only for three seconds, and then turned his eyes to Jiang again side of the boat.

"Father, who are you looking for?" Zhang Tongchang finally couldn't help asking.

"Well, where's Newton?" Zhu Youjian blurted out.

"That kid, he's sweeping the cowshed on the boat." Zhang Tongchang waved his hand indifferently, pointing to a boat that was obviously broken.

"You..." Zhu Youjian's face turned black by the way, and his face became very fast, which scared Zhang Tongchang enough.

"I'm going to bring Newton to my father right away." Seeing Zhu Youjian's expression, Jiu'er probably knew that he had done something wrong.

This is what the princess said, and of course the people under her command are also very shrewd, and someone has already rushed towards the boat.In fact, there were some teenagers who took Jiu'er on the same boat, but the ones who were qualified to be looked at by the princess were all clever teenagers with good academic performance.However, Newton happened to be out of this list!

Yes, you are right, the young Newton's academic performance is actually not outstanding, and Newton did not show his genius until after he entered middle school.And Newton went to middle school in 1654, that is to say, the current Newton has just begun to show off.Along the way, all the talented youngsters brought over from Europe were not obvious to Newton at all, that is, the type who were used as handymen.

From a distance, Zhu Youjian finally saw a thin and small child being led slowly towards this side.Because the leader was in a hurry, the child couldn't keep up, and almost fell into the river several times while walking on the wooden bridge.These thrilling movements frightened Zhu Youjian who was watching from the shore. He had already stretched out his hand several times, each time as if he could hold the child a hundred meters away.

Not only Jiu'er, but everyone around the emperor couldn't understand it at all.If it was a young man from the Ming Dynasty, perhaps everyone could understand, maybe it was a folk child that the emperor met outside.For example, many people know the story of Chen Tuozi, and the queen Xiong Lijing.

But this is a child of Europa, how could the emperor know him.But the concern shown by the emperor is as if the other party is a treasure in his hands.

"Are you Isaac Newton?" When the boy came to Zhu Youjian, Zhu Youjian asked in English.

At this time, Zhu Youjian couldn't believe his eyes at all, the young man in front of him was just a child, he was thinner and more delicate than the people of Ming Dynasty.Legend has it that when Newton was born, the small one could fit in a quart mug, but anyway, Newton is now 13 years old.

"Yes, Your Excellency." Newton was apprehensive, and he was not stupid. Just from his clothes, he could tell that the person in front of him should be a high-ranking official.
