Chapter 494

"This gift given to the king by my family master is really extraordinary!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the room stared with big, shining eyes, waiting for Zuo Mingsi's next words. Even Zhang Xianzhong also had his eyes widened.

"Your Majesty, if it's convenient, would you please order me to bring the things in?"

"Hmph, I want to see what kind of rare things his old Zuo can give out. Except for the dragon chair in the Jinluan Palace, we haven't seen anything else. We haven't seen anything else in Prince Xiang's Mansion or Prince Chu's Mansion. close!"

Zhang Xianzhong shouted deliberately loudly.

"It's just that there is something rare that the king has never seen before. Zuo Liangyu thinks too highly of himself."

The voices of other people continued to come, but one thing is certain, everyone was waiting for him with their eyes wide open. Although they didn't know what Zuo Liangyu was sending, it must be full of irresistible meaning to them. temptation.

"That's right, Zuo Mingsi, what is it? Lift it up for everyone to see."

Zhang Xianzhong shouted loudly, but he said it dismissively.

"If something is not good, we will smash it with one hammer! I want you to take the junk back to Lao Zuo!"

"That's right, get it here quickly and don't show off."

Everyone was itching to hear it, and they jumped to their feet and urged loudly.

"Yes, yes, what the king said is true, and what the generals said is also true. This thing is rare, it is very rare, and it is not rare. The king and several generals must have seen it."

As Zuo Mingsi spoke, he shouted loudly to the outside.

"Zuo Gui, Zuo Liang, hurry up and bring the things in, go, go."

"yes."

Zuo Gui and Zuo Liang, who were standing outside the door, immediately rushed out the door as soon as they heard the sergeant's message. A moment later, they took a dozen brothers with them to carry a wooden box about ten feet high on a big pole. Came in.

Zhang Xianzhong and others were stunned when they saw it. This thing is really not small!

Not only is it not small, it is clearly almost reaching the roof. What kind of treasure can such a big thing be?

Originally he just wanted to take a look and see what it was, so he quickly ordered.

"Quick, open it and let me take a look!"

What kind of baby is it?

Those people quickly opened the wooden board, and then revealed a huge object wrapped in golden velvet. The sunlight reflected on it, and the velvet was glowing with golden light. This thing was of extraordinary value at first glance!

At this moment, Zhang Xianzhong, who didn't care about being polite, took a few steps forward and ordered with a smile,

"Hurry up, hurry up, open this cloth quickly, I want to see what it is that makes Lao Zuo value it so much."

"housekeeper."

Zuo Gui pretended to ask Zuo Mingsi with his eyes.

"Open it, this gift is from the master."

Lifting his head, Zuo Mingsi's face was filled with lust.

"yes."

Zuo Gui responded in a low voice, and then carefully untied the golden velvet, revealing a golden cabinet that was about ten feet high and three feet wide.

"this……"

The moment this golden cabinet was revealed, everyone present was staring at this golden cabinet with dumbfounded expressions.

Even Zhang Xianzhong was dumbfounded!

What kind of cabinet is this?

It’s clearly a gold cabinet!

In the sunlight, you can see the flowers carved out of gold. The carvings are very exquisite. Even these bunch of bumpkins who have never seen the world can see it. This thing is really extraordinary. It looks like a good thing. Look at it. , this flower made of gold looks just like real ones. Look at the little figures carved on it and the auspicious clouds. Oh dear, these are all made of gold!

For these generals who came from the high slopes of the loess, their aesthetics are upright - as long as it is gold!

oops!

What's on the front of this gold cabinet?

Could it be that it is a crystal?

It's smoother than most crystals you've ever seen, and you can see clearly the patterns inside the gold cabinet at a glance.

Through the crystal mirror, everyone's eyes showed greed. They saw that this was a Western self-ringing clock. They had snatched it from the palaces and the homes of wealthy officials, and it was used to tell the time.

What's so rare about this stuff?

But this thing is different. Looking at the golden person, this thing may even be made of pure gold, and the twelve pieces inside to tell the time are also about the thickness of a thumb.

Made of rubies, with a ring of sparkling crystals surrounding them?

It doesn't look like crystal.

It must be some extraordinary treasure!

And the pendulum clock just under the dial is also made of gold, and it is also inlaid with various gems. This is really a treasure!

Everyone stared at this treasure and breathed heavily. Even if they knew that this treasure belonged to the king, it didn't stop them from being jealous.

Baby, who doesn’t like it?

For these "simple peasant rebel generals" who have not yet adapted to the officialdom, we are so upright, we just like it, if we like it, of course we have to take it away, uh, no, look at it twice,

This thing cannot be stolen!

"The king and all the generals should have seen this thing, which is a self-ringing bell, but it is not ordinary. It is different from those Western gadgets. It is said that General Pinglu drew the pattern himself and asked skilled craftsmen to make it. There were five in total.

Taiwan, each one is made of gold, and there are only a few made in total. This thing is not for sale. It was made by General Pinglu as a gift. One of them was sent to the palace in the capital by General Pinglu.

It was given to the emperor, and another one was given to Prince De’s Mansion in Jinan. No, this time he was going to Huguang, so he specially sent one to the head of my family. He said that he would ask the head of the house to take more care of the logistics in the future. After all, the head of the house

He wants to guard Wuchang, and his troops, horses, and supplies all need to be transported by water, and they have to go to Wuchang."

Afraid that Zhang Xianzhong would not understand, Zuo Mingsi explained in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, the master of the house asked this villain to come over this time just to bring this treasure sent by General Pinglu to the king. Firstly, it is because this thing is really a rare treasure. According to experts, just such a

The thing is worth at least 500,000 taels, and it is still expensive but not marketable, because it cannot be bought, and there are only a few in the world! As for the second one..."

Before Zuo Mingsi could finish speaking, Zhang Xianzhong stared at the big clock and said.

"I understand, I understand, I know what the head of your family means. He wants to cause trouble behind General Pinglu's back. This old leftist is really, really..."

Next, Zhang Xianzhong did not continue speaking. He knew what "Zuo Liangyu" meant. When the time came, Zuo Liangyu would cut off General Pinglu's retreat, cooperate with Zhang Xianzhong inside and outside, and deal with him directly.

.

This thing, what kind of chime is there?

It was clearly a stepping stone for him, Zhang Xianzhong, to ascend the throne and become emperor in the future!

Lao Zuo, Lao Zuo, you kid, you really don’t want anything for your own glory and wealth!

This gift is truly extraordinary!

Xu Yixian and the others also sighed,

If there were people like Lao Zuo in the Ming Dynasty, it would be unjust to survive!

Although everyone sighed like this, they were also completely attracted by the treasure in front of them.

Five hundred thousand taels!

There is still a price but no market!

You can't buy or sell this chiming clock even if you want to buy it. This thing is a treasure!

In other words, there are those in the palace and Prince De's palace. In the future, when the capital is captured, Jinan is captured, and his grandma is robbed.

"Your Majesty, there is another clever thing about this thing, that is, it will automatically tell the time, and it will strike three times every time on the hour."

In fact, everyone is not interested in this, telling the time or not telling the time, who needs to know the time, just like who needs to click the thumb, but they still look at this treasure eagerly, thinking in their hearts, what if the head of the family

If you put this thing aside, when the time comes, when you are chatting, there is a sudden sound, and the face will be greatly lost!

"At this time, do you want him to ring whenever you want?"

Zhang Kewang asked, if it doesn't sound, how can it increase face and make people pay attention to it.

"Exactly, the general is well-informed and I admire him."

Smiling and nodding, he then bent down and took out a key, then went around behind the clock, inserted it into a hole, and then turned it gently.

"It's almost the hour. As long as you work hard enough, there will definitely be surprises. Sir, please wait for a moment, and the miracle will appear soon."

After saying that, Zuo Mingsi took off the key again, then stood beside him with a smile, quietly waiting for other people's praise.

For such a good thing, everyone looks like they are salivating, whether they are envious or curious, but everyone knows that this thing belongs to the king.

"What a wonderful workmanship, what a wonderful workmanship. Tsk tsk, tsk tsk, not only does this general know how to use soldiers, but he also has such abilities. I didn't expect him to have such good things. That is, only their clan can come up with such good things..."

All the civil and military officials of the Great Western Dynasty nodded in agreement, and even wanted to reach out and touch it, but no one touched it. After all, this thing belonged to the king.

Even when Zuo Mingsi and others retreated, they still stared at this treasure with envy and longing in their eyes.

However, they just took a second look. After all, there are some things that they just want to think about.

Unknowingly, time is passing. For those civil and military officials, they finally opened their eyes again today. After staring at it for a while, Zhang Xianzhong sighed.

"Oh, I finally opened my eyes again today! Don't you think so?"

Others agreed one after another. After all, this is indeed an extraordinary treasure.

Such a treasure is indeed rare to find!

Seeing how everyone couldn't put it down, Zhang Xianzhong smiled proudly.
Chapter completed!
