Chapter One Hundred and Fifty-Three: Less Courtesy and More Affection?
Zhu Gaoxu also felt that he did not regard Li Hao as a human being.
If he were to give orders to Li Hao on such a trivial matter, he would probably have to rush to him.
Li Xingshan, on the other hand, didn't have much to worry about. After seeing Zhu Gaoxu's gesture, he nodded and then went to the envoys from various countries to put away the gift list.
Other envoys saw that Zhu Gaoxu spoke so modestly, and realized that there was indeed such a rule.
Immediately, they all obediently handed over the gift lists they had prepared long ago.
Among these people, only two had dark faces.
It's none other than Wang Ren.
They knew very well what Zhu Gaoxu looked like.
This is pure lies with open eyes.
The key is not to blush, and to say it so grandly.
Of course, although I hate Zhu Gaoxu so much that my teeth itch, the lives of the two of them are still in Zhu Gaoxu's hands.
I can only watch helplessly as Zhu Gaoxu pretends to be 13 in front of others.
Soon, Li Xingshan collected all the gift lists and handed them into Zhu Gaoxu's hands.
After Zhu Gaoxu took the gift list, he didn't look at it in a hurry. He first ordered someone to serve him a cup of tea, and then he slowly started reading it.
Now he feels more and more that when he wears 13, it will be more effective if he drinks a cup of tea.
Zhu Gaoxu looked at the gift lists sent from various countries and nodded from time to time.
When he saw the plum blossom borneol and other dipterocarps offered as tribute by the Bangni Kingdom, Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help but raise his lips and nodded.
Dipterocarps has great effects and can be used as medicine and also has industrial effects.
The key is that Chinese dipterocarps in later generations are very good and are protected plants. When Zhu Gaoxu saw it, he immediately remembered it.
Then he smiled at the envoy of the country of Fanni and said, "The country of Fanni is interested. Please sit down."
Since Zhu Gaoxu came in with a group of envoys, he did not let these people sit down.
On the contrary, he calmly sat down directly on the main seat.
Therefore, these envoys did not receive permission from Zhu Gaoxu to sit down, and they all stood.
At this time, when they heard that Zhu Gaoxu offered his seat to the envoy of the Bangni Kingdom, everyone realized that they and others were still standing.
But Zhu Gaoxu had already asked him to sit down. These people wanted to sit down, but they couldn't sit down without Zhu Gaoxu's request.
The envoy from the Bangni Kingdom was obviously stunned after hearing Zhu Gaoxu's words.
When Zhu Gaoxu saw that several people were motionless, he pointed to the stools next to the mahjong table.
A mahjong table has four stools, and his big tent has seven or eight mahjong tables and a smaller one with thirty stools, so you can sit wherever you like.
Of course, the premise is that the gift must satisfy him.
When the other envoys saw that the envoy from the Weni Kingdom was suddenly given a seat, they were a little confused for a while, and they didn't know why.
After all, Zhu Gaoxu had just said that "it is light on etiquette but heavy on affection", so no one thought about the gift list at the first time.
To say that ordinary people can understand Zhu Gaoxu's operation, there are only four people.
One is Li Hao, the other is Li Xingshan, and the last two are Wang Ren.
They knew very well what Zhu Gaoxu was thinking at this time.
There must be something good on the gift list of Bangni Country that caught Zhu Gaoxu's eye.
At this time, Zhu Gaoxu didn't care how many people could understand his thoughts.
He still has something to say.
After waiting for the three envoys from the Bangni Kingdom to sit down, Zhu Gaoxu said with a smile: "I heard that your country is rich in dipterocarp, and I like it very much."
When the envoy of the Bangni Kingdom heard Zhu Gaoxu's words, he immediately understood what Zhu Gaoxu meant. Then he stood up and saluted: "Since Your Highness likes it, I just happened to bring some with me this time, and I will present them to Your Highness when I get back."
After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu smiled and shook his head and said: "I want to raise some in the garden. I wonder if your envoy can give them to me?"
Upon hearing Zhu Gaoxu's request, the envoy from the Bangni Kingdom pondered slightly.
However, when he saw Zhu Gaoxu's slightly unhappy face, he immediately nodded and said, "Send it to His Highness later."
Hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu smiled again, then nodded and stretched out his hand to ask the envoy of the Gangni Kingdom to sit down, and then continued to look at the gift list.
Zhu Gaoxu frowned when he saw Beishan, Zhongshan, Nanshan and Ryukyu.
These countries have a bit of a story, and they all lived in their own little days.
But now Zhu Gaoxu will not let what happens next.
Zhu Gaoxu put the list of gifts for these people at the end without even looking at them, which made the envoys of several countries panic.
I don’t know what Zhu Gaoxu means.
But Zhu Gaoxu had no intention of explaining and continued to look at the gift list in his hand.
When he saw the gift list from the Zhenla Kingdom, Zhu Gaoxu paused again.
"I heard that there is a tree in your country called the palm sugar tree. It has a delicate fragrance and a sweet aftertaste, and it is the best for sugar production."
The envoy was shocked when he heard Zhu Gaoxu's words. He didn't know why Zhu Gaoxu understood him so well.
However, the envoy did not hide this. He stepped forward and replied: "Yes, Your Highness, and the brown sugar mentioned in the gift list this time is made from this tree."
After hearing what the envoy said, Zhu Gaoxu nodded and said, "Can I plant some in my yard?"
All the envoys and Li Li were a little confused when they heard this.
Zhu Gaoxu wanted to be addicted to dipterocarps one moment, and plant brown sugar trees the next. What on earth did he want to do?
What I know is that you are the prince of the Ming Dynasty. What I don’t know is that you want to open a botanical garden at home.
Zhu Gaoxu didn't even bother to explain to them. At this time, he was looking at the envoys of Zhenla Kingdom, waiting for the other party's answer.
