The Ming Dynasty: Starting with the Somersault Cloud, Old Zhu was so envious he cried!

The next day, it was just getting light.

Zhu Ming suddenly sat up in bed, before even opening his eyes, he muttered a sentence:

"Check-in!"

The voice just fell,

A mechanical notification sounded in my mind:

【Ding! 】

[Congratulations, host, for completing the daily check-in! You have received: Bronze Treasure Chest x1!]

Zhu Ming stretched and yawned widely, then waved casually.

"Go ahead and open it. It's just a bronze treasure chest anyway, nothing to look forward to."

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained: Copying Mirror]

[Copy Mirror (from the Doraemon world): It can copy anything. Place an item in front of the mirror, and an exact copy will appear in the mirror.]

Zhu Ming: "???"

His yawning suddenly froze, as if he had been frozen in place.

Replica mirror?

Can it replicate everything?

Before he could react, a flash of golden light appeared before his eyes.

A floor-length mirror, over a meter tall, appeared out of thin air in the room and stood steadily on the floor.

Zhu Ming suddenly jumped out of bed.

The drowsiness I felt when I woke up early has long been banished.

"Ah Zhen, are you serious?"

"You can get this stuff from a bronze treasure chest?"

Zhu Ming walked around the mirror twice, looking it over from head to toe for a long time, then reached out and tapped the mirror, making a banging sound.

"If this thing is really the same gadget as in Doraemon, as described, then it should be considered a conceptual gadget!"

Zhu Ming's eyes lit up; he was determined to verify its power for himself.

So he took a gold ingot out of his pocket.

This gold ingot weighs about ten taels. It was the fine that Huang Zi'an just paid last night, and it can be used to verify its value.

Zhu Ming placed the gold ingot neatly in front of the mirror, took two steps back, and stared intently at it with wide eyes.

one second.

two seconds.

three seconds.

Nothing happened.

Zhu Ming: "..."

"What a rip-off!"

He was just about to make a complaint when a ripple suddenly appeared on the mirror.

Immediately afterwards, a gold ingot appeared on the mirror!

She just lay there quietly in the mirror.

It stood side by side with the ingot outside, as if it were meant to be there.

Zhu Ming's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Did it work?"

He eagerly reached out and touched the mirror.

When you put your hand through the mirror, it feels like you're dipping your hand into a cool pool of water.

He groped around inside for a while and soon found something hard and heavy.

Upon taking it out, it turned out to be a gold ingot.

Zhu Ming looked down at the gold ingot in his left hand, then at the gold ingot in his right hand.

Two gold ingots were placed side by side in his palm.

Same size, same shape, same quality.

Zhu Ming picked up one of the ingots and bit it with his teeth.

Soft.

It's real gold.

He picked up another ingot and took a bite of it as well.

It's also soft.

It's real gold too.

"OMG, you scared me..."

Zhu Ming's hands began to tremble, and the two gold ingots clattered together in his hands, making a crisp, ringing sound.

Ten taels of gold.

He originally had only one ingot, but now he has two.

That is,

He didn't do anything, he just put it in front of the mirror, and suddenly ten taels of gold appeared out of thin air.

Zhu Ming took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

He stared at the two gold ingots for a long time, then suddenly frowned.

"etc……"

Zhu Ming picked up the two gold ingots, examined them carefully from both sides, and compared them meticulously.

Upon closer inspection, he indeed noticed something different.

There was a thin scratch on the lower left corner of the original gold ingot; no one knows who did it.

However, the scratch on the copied ingot has somehow moved to the right side!

Zhu Ming: "???"

He was stunned for three seconds, then he realized what was happening.

"oh--"

"I remember now, it's a mirror image."

Zhu Ming suddenly realized and nodded.

He remembered that Doraemon had mentioned this concept when he was looking through his memories of another world.

The things copied by the copying mirror are all mirror images that are flipped left and right, just like looking in a mirror.

It is said that when this prop was designed, this restriction was specifically added to prevent humans from printing money on a large scale and disrupting the financial order.

After all, the serial numbers and patterns on banknotes are directional, and a mirror image would reveal the truth.

Thinking of this, Zhu Ming looked down at the two gold ingots in his hand.

The scratch on the left ingot is on the left, and the scratch on the right ingot is on the right, clearly distinguishable.

Then--

Zhu Ming: "..."

He was silent for three seconds, then suddenly burst out laughing.

"Ha, I'm so stupid."

"So what if it's a mirror image? What does that have to do with replicating gold?"

"This thing isn't a banknote, it doesn't have a serial number. Does it matter whether the scratch is on the left or right side? Does it affect the fact that it's pure gold? Does it affect its value?"

"Do you expect people to scrutinize the gold ingots for scratches when I spend money?"

Zhu Ming shook his head, feeling that his earlier worries were completely unnecessary.

A gold ingot isn't a painting or a seal, so who cares if it's a mirror image or not? As long as you can spend it, that's fine.

Thinking of this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Since one ingot can become two ingots...

What about the two ingots?

Zhu Ming licked his dry lips and placed the two gold ingots together in front of the mirror.

Three seconds later,

The mirror rippled again, revealing two more gold ingots inside.

Zhu Ming reached out to grab it.

One ingot.

Two ingots.

Adding to the original two ingots—

Four ingots in total!

Zhu Ming's breathing became rapid as he looked at the four gold ingots laid out in front of him.

Four ingots.

Each ingot weighs ten taels.

A total of forty taels of gold.

A minute ago, he only had ten taels, but now he has forty taels.

This money-making speed is even faster than robbery!

The next second, Zhu Ming pushed all four gold ingots in front of him into front of the mirror.

"Again!"

The next scene is: four becomes eight, eight becomes sixteen, sixteen becomes thirty-two...

Not long after—

In front of Zhu Ming were piles of gold ingots.

It was golden and yellow, like a small mountain, shimmering with an alluring light in the sunlight.

Zhu Ming slumped down in the pile of gold ingots, grabbed one at random, rubbed it on his face, and chuckled.

"I'm rich..."

"This time, Your Highness has truly struck it rich..."

With this prop,

He can say without exaggeration—

From now on, Zhu Ming will be the richest person in the Ming Dynasty.

What national treasury, what imperial treasury, what centuries of accumulated wealth of aristocratic families—none of that matters in front of this mirror!

If he wanted to, he could double the gold reserves of the entire Ming Dynasty tomorrow.

Zhu Ming became increasingly smug and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

As he was laughing, something suddenly occurred to him.

"etc……"

Zhu Ming stroked his chin, lost in thought.

Since gold can be replicated.

What about...the other things?

For example, the items he acquired before?

The moment this thought popped into my head...

It just couldn't be suppressed any longer.

Zhu Ming's gaze immediately fell on his own neck.

There, hanging there, was a gleaming golden bracelet.

Diamond Bracelet: ...
