As the prince of Ming Dynasty.
Moreover, he was the future ruler of the maritime empire.
Of course, Jiang Chen couldn't meet the king of Sulu.
They would only come to see him.
Just like the future Zheng He.
The Sulu Sultanate had been established for two years.
At this moment, the main powers of Sulu were held by the three noble families, namely the East King, the West King, and the Dong King. The East King had the most power.
When Zhu Bai's edict arrived.
Everyone from the Sulu Sultanate could not help but feel excited.
Yes, he was excited.
Now that the Sulu Sultanate had just been established, it was constantly being bullied by pirates and surrounding countries. In fact, the country was extremely unstable.
The Ming Dynasty summoned him.
The three kings did not dare to delay at all and quickly headed to the port.
They arrived at the port.
They were undoubtedly deeply shocked.
In less than a month, this wasteland had actually undergone earth-shattering changes.
There were tall houses everywhere, as well as figures walking through them.
The clothes on these figures were even more gorgeous, almost blinding their eyes in an instant.
"Unbelievable!"
"This is unbelievable!"
Muttering to himself, East King Batu Gebadala's words were full of ups and downs.
The other two kings were not much better.
When they looked at the surface of the sea, they could immediately sense the huge ship that occupied almost the entire sea.
Just looking at those ships made them feel suffocated.
This was simply the work of a god.
The three kings rose and fell, and many people behind them prostrated themselves on the ground at this moment.
He bowed to the ship in the distance and the buildings in front of him.
A month was enough to do all this. To them, they were no different from gods.
"Please, His Highness is waiting for you!”
Zhu Da said as he looked at the three of them with some disdain. Then, he gestured for the three of them to enter.
As the system characters gradually survived in this era, they were no different from real people.
There were more emotions.
He also had more emotions.
However, no matter what they did, these people were absolutely loyal to Zhu Bai.
Just like Zhu Da at this moment, as the first system Farmer, he was no longer just a simple Farmer.
There were already many things that he could do.
Zhu Bai would even bring this one by his side to help him deal with some matters.
"Thank you, my lord!"
Batu Gebatala spoke in broken Mandarin.
Ever since the Great Tang opened the Silk Road on the Sea and the Great Song was further perfected, the entire Southeast Asia could be said to be covered in Chinese culture.
Although it was not like East Asia, where Chinese became the standard language.
Whether it was Korea or Japan, the top level of the country could speak Chinese.
However, in Nanyang, Chinese was almost equivalent to the official language.
For example, in Luzon, the land was barren and the people ate fish and shrimp, boiled the sea for salt, brewed sugar cane for wine, and weaved bamboo for cloth. The weather is always hot. There is a pearl pool, looking at it at night, the light floating on the surface of the water. The locals exchanged pearls with the Chinese, and the bigger ones were dozens of times more profitable. When the merchant ship was about to return, he left a few hostages in the hope that they would come again. The medicine near it is called Gao Yao, which produces tortoiseshell.
As they had been doing business with the Chinese, the three kings knew a little bit of Chinese, but they were still a little lacking in communication.
Of course, the three kings were also prepared.
He hired a local Chinese as a translator.
This was a Chinese from Lidala. His ancestors had migrated to Southeast Asia during the war at the end of the Southern Song Dynasty. Over a hundred years had passed, and it had been more than three generations.
Li Dala had only heard about China and his distant hometown from the legends of his elders.
However, he had never thought that he would be so close to his hometown one day.
"Heavenly army!"
"This is what grandpa said about our Heavenly Dynasty.”
Li Dala muttered to himself. His expression was dazed, but it was filled with excitement and excitement.
At this moment, his body was also trembling.
How many times have I dreamt of my distant hometown at midnight?
How many times had he looked forward to his distant hometown?
According to his grandfather, it was a dream-like place. It was an existence that only existed in his dreams.
However, it happened at this moment.
The moment he appeared, he displayed unimaginable strength.
In less than three months, those despicable pirates had been completely wiped out by the Heavenly soldiers of their hometown.
Now, he seemed to want to see the prince of his hometown, the Celestial Dynasty.
He didn't know what a prince was, but in his opinion, it should be similar to a prince.
At least, that was the explanation.
But that was not the prince of Sulu, but the prince of Ming, his hometown.
Li Da La had never been so excited before.
He was looking forward to meeting that prince.
"Remember, when you go in, remember to address Your Highness and kneel!”
Zhu Da seemed to have thought of something and immediately ordered.
Everyone listened attentively. Even the three kings did not dare to be negligent.
They didn't know what Da Ming was like, but just the strength that Zhu Bai displayed was enough to let them understand what level Da Ming's power had reached.
Those damned pirates had almost destroyed their Sulu Kingdom, but now they had been easily dealt with.
This was enough to explain the problem.
The few of them nodded.
Then, he walked into the room.
A gathering place had already been set up here, and Zhu Bai received these people in the center of the town.
Unlike the town center in the game, the town center in real life was huge enough.
It occupied an area of more than 1,000 square meters and belonged to a collective building. It was enough to store a large number of resources.
At this moment, Zhu Bai was sitting at the head of the table.
Only the three kings and Li Dala entered.
"Greetings, Your Highness King Qiong!"
The three kings of Sulu and Li Dala spoke in broken Chinese.
Hearing their words, Zhu Bai looked at the three kings of Sulu with some surprise. He did not expect that these people could actually speak a sentence or two of Chinese.
"Rise!"
"This time, I called the three Great Kings because I have something to discuss with them.”
Zhu Bai said with a smile.
The three of them looked at Li Da La, who relayed Zhu Bai's words.
"Your Highness, how can we help you?”
East King Batu Gebatala's eyes lit up as he spoke first.
Then, the other two kings quickly echoed.
"It's not a big deal. Just this area and this area. I, Great Ming, need them. In addition, this king needs some manpower. If it's convenient for the three kings, you can sell some slaves to this king. This king will buy them at the highest price in the market.”
Hearing Li Dala's translation, Zhu Bai smiled and nodded.
As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his hand.
General Zhu handed over a map.
The three of them looked at Li Da La. After Li Da La translated, the three of them looked at the map.
The place Zhu Bai mentioned was naturally the place with the richest gold reserves.
As for whether this would be unethical.
He did not care at all.
After all, if it were those barbarians from the west, they would probably be much more brutal than him. Killing and seizing the land was their choice. At least he could sit down and talk.
As for this, he strongly disagreed.
He was not worried at all.
He could be civilized, but he could also be barbaric.
However, there shouldn't be a need.
He believed that Sulu would make a choice.
The result was indeed the same.
After checking for a moment.
The East King, Batu Gaddala, spoke.
"Your Highness, we can give these to you. As for slaves, we can also sell them.”
His words were spoken with caution, afraid that he would anger Zhu Bai.
"Something?"
"I wonder how salt, ironware, cloth, and food are?”
Zhu Bai nodded, then muttered to himself for a moment before speaking.
There were naturally many things that Da Ming could take out, but he would not really strengthen the Sulu Kingdom.
Although the Sulu Kingdom was not the Luzon of the future, and had been very honest throughout history, that was because it was weak. If it became strong enough, accidents would inevitably occur.
Therefore, some things naturally could not be traded.
However, some daily necessities could.
"You, you said that we can exchange it with the cavalry!”
Hearing Li Dala's translation, East King Batu Gebatala's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Yes."
"We can exchange for the cavalry. As long as you can give us enough slaves, this is not a problem.”
Zhu Bai nodded.
"Thank you so much."
"May the Lord be with you."
East King Batu Gebatala said excitedly.
Ironware. For Southeast Asia, where most of them were still in the Stone Age and a small number of them had reached the Bronze Age, the temptation of iron cavalry was almost unimaginable.
Especially since they had seen powerful iron weapons.
At this moment, not only East King, but the eyes of the other two kings also lit up.
In their minds, they even thought of the country that had been invading their territory.
If they had the support of iron weapons, would they have a way to deal with them or even defeat them?
