Chapter 856 Sanghai Empire

Zhang Fan worshipped together and knew that the White Elephant King may have a deep relationship with Puxian Bodhisattva, or the manifestation of Puxian Bodhisattva to transform African creatures here. Buddhism emphasizes the equality of all sentient beings. No matter what kind of creature, they will be correspondingly taught and given wisdom to make them have the karma of becoming Buddha.

You should know that Bodhisattva's wishes and vows are vast. Needless to say, it seems incredible to transform African elephants. What's more, the Tibetan Bodhisattva turned into sinful sentient beings in hell, vowing, "Hell is not empty, and I swear not to become a Buddha!" Zhang Fan thought of those hell corpses to save such sentient beings and make them Buddhas. It was incredible.

Just as everyone was about to go out of the cave, Zhang Fan prayed again when he passed by the old elephant sleeping on the bone mountain. After Zhang Fan's prayer, the body of the old elephant suddenly collapsed from the elephant bone mountain, and I don't know how many elephant bones were crushed. Even the old elephant's broken tooth fell off.

Zhang Fan's heart moved, picked up the gray broken tooth, nodded to the old elephant, and collected it into the ring space. This may be the old elephant's reward for escorting Zhang Fan and his partners all the way.

Return to the valley, climbed the hill, looked back at the valley, and found that the trees in the valley were vast, and there were no traces of elephant mounds. Even if you take the wooden iris to look down in the air, the land of elephant mounds has already melted in the African jungle and there is no trace. Maybe the elephant grave will only open when the next old elephant returns...

Return to the port, the transaction here is not over yet. Aken asked Drake to help acquire some high-quality gems and gold, and nothing else. Seeing Zhang Fan and Green Wing Dark Sakura return safely, he asked Zhang Fan what he had found. Because the elephant tomb had been closed, he was not worried that the greedy Aken could find it. Zhang Fan told him about the elephant tomb.

As expected, Aken beat his chest and complained that Zhang Fan did not collect part of the ivory in the elephant mound. You should know how much wealth thosexiang yas are equivalent to! Aken immediately took the wooden yuan, took Goblin and Donier, and flew to the location of the elephant mound! Two days and a night later, Aken, with his eyes full of blood, came back sadly. Sure enough, this guy got nothing!

"At least we also got half of the ivory..." Zhang Fan took out the gray-yellow broken tooth with only the root of the tooth and handed it to Akan.

Aken caressed the root of this ivory tooth helplessly and muttered, "At least you took down the complete tooth and took this useless tooth root and broke it like this. It's less than a foot. It's worth a lot of money!" I don't know how this long tooth was broken. The six fork corners at the fracture have been flattened, and it's good to make a pen holder..."

Zhang Fan's green wing was shocked when he heard the words and shouted in unison, "You can't grind!" So he grabbed the broken tooth and took a closer look. The broken difference was indeed six slender pointed corners, like six short fingers, more like six curved and elegant teeth...

The fleet set off again, but after more than 100 nautical miles east, they came to the ancient Ghana on the 'Gold Coast' next to the Ivory Coast, which is now a Portuguese colony, where European merchants found large gold and diamond mines. In later generations, the gold reserves are nearly 60,000 tons, and the diamond reserves are about 100 million carats!

is such a country rich in gold and diamonds, but it is a very poor country in the real world. Now, Zhang Fan's team is anchoring in the original port with a fleet that came to plunder the wealth of this ancient country.

The ancient country of Ghana has a large population, so there is also a large slave trade here. Gold and black slaves are the two important commodities that Hawkins wants to buy most. Therefore, this 'Gold Coast' is the most important stop for this gluttony trade!

After learning from the book demon that this 'Gold Coast' is rich in diamonds, Acan disappeared with Goblin as soon as he entered the port. They directly found the local gem mine, bought miners and miners with rum and cheap industrial products, and bought diamonds and other high-quality gems. This is really convenient for Zhang Fan Aken's team, which has a database such as a book demon and a means of transportation like Mu Yuan! After seeing the nest of the poisonous tooth dragon, gems are very important for Zhang Fan's team's dragon hunting journey!

In the mining area, Akan thought that he also had a friend, the Rat King Jinling, who was also very ** for the treasure, so he summoned it. After getting the Byzantine treasure, this guy has cultivated to the realm of treasure hunt rats! However, the man just sniffed in the air and told Aken that the nearest treasure was more than a thousand miles away from here. And the mineral deposits under the ground, even if they can be perceived by the treasure hunter, can't be excavated like Goblin, so it is not attractive to the treasure hunter rat.

Zhang Fan and the book demon, who were not interested in gold and gems, carefully studied the dragon message provided by the Six-tooth White Elephant King and made up their mind to go to the Sanghai Empire. Part of the real-world Sanghai Empire is Nigeria. Zhang Fan asked Drake and learned that the Hawkins fleet would be the last stop if the 'Gold Coast' acquired enough black slaves and gold in the traditional sense. But it is estimated that Hawkins, who is unwilling to go east to the port of Harcote of the Benin Empire after losing the 300 slaves. Because the Benin Empire and the Songhai Empire have most of the African population. Port Harcote is also the place with the largest trade volume of slaves.

It seems that Hawkins may want to buy nearly 500 black slaves and go to the Caribbean this time. The lost 300 black slaves and a ship make him want to earn back the loss with profits like a red-eyed gambler! However, Zhang Fan and the book demon both know that Hawkins, who carried out the Black Triangle trade this time, is destined to be a loss-making deal.

Because they were attacked by the Spanish fleet in the Caribbean, more than 300 British sailors were killed and disappeared. Finally, the two escaped with two ships that were about to sink. This sale of slaves naturally lost all their lives! It was also for this reason that Drake and Hawkins formed a deep hatred with the Spanish Armada, which led Drake to become the most famous English pirate in the Atlantic and Drake's revenge in the 'British-Spanish Sea War' 20 years later!

Because it is expected that even if the Hawkins fleet will go to Port Harcote, it will not stay too long. And Zhang Fan's team is likely to take months to find the unknown dragon. Zhang Fan asked Drake to recruit a group of black slave sailors for himself so that he could fly the big merchant ship hidden in Cape Verde after the Hawkins fleet left.

Drake was very surprised that this baron didn't have a long memory and insisted on using black slave sailors. You know that although those guys are very economical, they are very unreliable. But since it is the boss's request, Drake can't resist. Anyway, he and his cousin will never use these nigga on the ship.

So Drake agreed to Zhang Fan and went to Port Harkot of the Benin Empire to help Zhang Fan recruit sailors. Because the black people there do have some experienced sailors. There are also some merchants in Africa who use ships to trade, but their ships only arrive at some nearby ports and do not have the ability to trade in Europe and the other side of the ocean. It's not that I don't have the ability to navigate, but that I have neither money nor courage. A group of black people ran to European territory to do business. I'm afraid they were either sold as slaves to Europeans or were plundered by part-time pirate merchant ships.

'Gold Coast' is worthy of 'Gold Coast'. Aken and Yoda have acquired a large number of gemstone raw ores, all of which are high-quality gemstone ores carefully selected by Goblin. And because it is raw ore, the price is naturally very low, just like buying a batch of stones. This is just like the gambling stones in southwest China in the real world. With ore exploration tools such as Goblin, the natural harvest is full of pots.

Drake still helped Zhang Fan acquire a large amount of gold. So far, Aken returned to the port to calculate and found that the team's wealth had increased more than five times! And because gold and diamonds are hard currency that can be used in any scenario, they can be used as scene wealth even if they are not traded. In this way, a small half of the used Byzantine treasures were earned back.

Aken found that those cheap industrial products in Europe made money faster than robbery on this primitive continent! What makes Aken more happy is that such a predatory trade can still be carried out in this trial scene for 20 years! Isn't that really rich? Now we are trying to figure out how to convert so much scene wealth into physical bonus and combat effectiveness.

Goblin Yoda is busy again. Although the team's props don't need to be manipulated now, the large number of gemstones can be enough for him to think about it for several years. For Goblin, thinking about these lovely gems is their true profession. Therefore, there is always a small figure in the cargo compartment of the 'China Ark', holding a small chisel and hammer, beating day and night. Especially in the dead of night, it makes everyone a little nervous.

Hawkins bought nearly 200 black slaves on the 'Gold Coast', so that his number of black slaves reached more than 300. This guy was really not satisfied, so the fleet sailed to the last end of the African voyage - the port of Harkot in the Benin Empire.

After entering the port, although it was also a place rich in gold and gems, because of the dragon hunting mission, Aken had no time to make money. He handed over all the cheap industrial products purchased in Europe to Drake and told him to exchange it for gold. He and Zhang Fan's book demon analyzed the message given by the Six-tooth White Elephant King and how to go to the Songhai Empire.

"The White Elephant King said that there are many strange people in the Sanghai Empire. It seems that this dragon hunting mission still needs to find these strange people. But what kind of people are those aliens?" Aken thought hard.

The book demon said slowly, "Maybe I know what those aliens do..."
