My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 686 Mirror

Looking at the tall mirror in the main hall, Bei Sunhu's face turned green and red. Even the usually calm deputy fire user's old face turned red at this time.

In fact, not only them, Mufas and Jahan Shah, including the two envoys behind them, all looked at the mirror in shock, with expressions of disbelief.

Just now, they thought that the mirror Bei Sunhu took out was a priceless treasure, but when they saw the dignity of the Han prince, they didn't know how to evaluate it?

"Your Highness, did you also buy this mirror from the Venetian? It must have cost a lot of money, right?"

In the end, the mature fireman was the first to react and immediately stood up and respectfully asked Zhu Zhanhe.

"The Merchant of Venice rarely comes to us. I actually had this mirror made by myself."

Zhu Zhanhe replied with a slight smile.

"Your Highness, can I step forward and take a closer look at this mirror?"

At this time Mufas finally reacted and immediately stood up and asked.

It wasn't that he didn't believe Zhu Zhanhe, but the mirror was too big. He wanted to step forward and take a closer look to see if it was true.
"Okay, you can watch as you like!"

Zhu Zhanhe pointed at the mirror and smiled again. It was just a mirror, and it was really interesting to think about how excited these people were.

So Mufas immediately stepped forward, and Jahansha also jumped up. The two of them almost came to the mirror to observe carefully.

I saw that this mirror was rectangular, about a person's height. Standing in front of the mirror, you can see your whole body clearly.

Mufas looked at himself in the mirror, and couldn't help but reach out and touch the mirror. The cold certainty told him that this was a genuine glass mirror.

"The picture is so clear. It's clearer than the Venetian mirror, and it's also much larger than the mirrors they made!"

At this time, Jahansha also stroked the mirror in shock and said.

At this time, other people from the mission also gathered around. Looking at the clear figures in the mirror, these people were all amazed. They lined up to come forward and wanted to touch one. They were like a group of bumpkins who had never seen the world. Similar.

In the end, even the people from Timur's mission couldn't help but come forward to check, but Besunhu remained motionless, obviously still unable to accept this fact.

It was best to wait until the three missionaries had finished checking the mirror, and then reluctantly returned to their seats.

"Your Highness, is this mirror really made by a big man?"

Jiahansha asked Zhu Zhanhe first. He still couldn't believe that such a huge mirror was made by the Han Dynasty just a few years after the founding of the country. After all, they were not far from the Han Dynasty and had never heard of it being produced by the Han Dynasty. Pass the mirror.

"Of course, we have just successfully trial-produced this kind of large glass mirror. If you are interested, I will have someone give you one separately later, as a return gift to you guys!"

Zhu Zhanhe said very generously.Although there is no need to worry about the lack of sales for glass mirrors, it is also a good idea to let the three countries’ missions advertise themselves in advance. I think more people will definitely come to Dahan to buy mirrors in the future.

"Your Highness, do you really want to give us such a big mirror?"

When Mufas heard this, he immediately asked Zhu Zhanhe with a face of ecstasy. Even though he was the Sultan's younger brother, he only had a glass mirror as big as his palm. If he could bring back a glass mirror as tall as a person, not only would he be able to It caused a sensation throughout the Ottoman Empire, and even the whole of Europe. The vampires in Venice were so angry that they vomited blood.

"It's just a few mirrors. In fact, we are also preparing to sell mirrors to the outside world. If you are interested, you can talk to our officials in charge of this aspect in detail in the future."

Zhu Zhanhe laughed again and said again.

However, although he was generous in his words, he began to secretly calculate in his heart that glass mirrors are now a scarce commodity, so he must not open up sales at the beginning. Only hunger marketing can maximize his own interests, so he cannot sell too many mirrors at the beginning. It shouldn’t be too big, and it needs to be upgraded little by little so that it can cut leeks again and again.

"That's great. I didn't expect that the big man would have such treasures besides silk and porcelain!"

At this time, Jiahansha also slapped the table excitedly and said, in fact, silk and porcelain were the specialties of the Ming Dynasty, but they were resold to Central Asia and West Asia through the Han Dynasty, so Jiahansha thought these were the specialties of the Ming Dynasty.

However, for Jahan Shah, if the big man could not buy Ulugh Beg back this time, it would be a wasted trip. However, he did not expect that there would be an unexpected surprise. If he could buy a batch of mirrors and bring them back to the country, he would definitely It will cause a sensation and open up a way for the Black Sheep Dynasty to make money.

"Everyone, if you are interested in the matter of the glass mirror, you can discuss it with me in private. Let's continue the banquet!"

Zhu Zhanhe laughed at this moment, then raised his glass and said.

Mufas and Jahan Shah were both extremely happy. Besunhu finally woke up at this moment. He looked at the mirror in his hand and closed the box with embarrassment. His face turned red. After all, compared to other people's Mirror, I really can’t get my own mirror.

Thinking about how just now he wanted to use the mirror as a bargaining chip in exchange for Ulugh Beg, he was like a clown, and made him want to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

However, Zhu Zhanhe did not embarrass Bei Sunhu, and still let people accept the mirror he gave. The reason why he took out his own mirror just now was to let the other party know that the priceless mirror in his eyes was almost useless here. No matter what, if you want to exchange for Ulugh Beg, you have to trade the whole city of Kabul.

Both Bei Sunhu and Huo Zhe understood what Zhu Zhanhe meant. They looked at each other when they picked up the wine glasses, and both saw a bit of bitterness in each other's eyes. After what happened in the mirror, they no longer had any leverage with Zhu Zhanhe. Bargained.

As soon as the banquet ended, Mufas and Jahansha approached Zhu Zhanhe and wanted to discuss the purchase of a mirror.

They were not stupid either. They had already seen that it was impossible for the big man to sell Ulugh Beg to them, so they could not go back empty-handed. If they brought back a batch of priceless mirrors, it would be considered a good deal.

In response to the enthusiasm of the two missions, Zhu Zhanhe also sent a special person to discuss business with them. Now the mirror is only produced in small batches, the output is very limited, and the price is certainly not cheap. Even with the financial resources of the two missions, It is impossible to buy too much.

Compared with the Black Sheep Mission and the Ottoman Mission, the Timur Mission has no intention of buying mirrors for the time being, because their negotiations with the Han Dynasty are still continuing. If they don't bring Ulugh Beg back, it will be useless to buy many mirrors.

However, the matter of the mirror also caused the Timur mission to lose a bargaining chip, and they were at a disadvantage during the negotiations. No matter how hard the deputy envoy insisted, they could only compromise in the end and agreed to divide the entire area of ​​​​Kabul to the big man. In exchange for Ulugh Beg's freedom.
