If you traveled back to ancient times, while others ate Guanyin clay, you would actually have giant

"Your Majesty, even if we concede that this incident didn't happen, the law of the jungle remains unchanged since ancient times. To put it bluntly, if the Daz Kingdom were to destroy my Great Dragon one day, do you think the Daz Kingdom would allow the Great Dragon to continue to exist?"

Zhou Wu was incredibly bold to say such things, but Li Tiancheng wasn't angry at all. On the contrary, after hearing Zhou Wu's words, he felt that what the other party said made even more sense.

"The matter of accepting Gao Liguo will be fully initiated, and the Right Minister will be in charge of this matter."

"I accept the decree."

Right Chancellor Ji Gaojie was cursing in his heart countless times. This was no good job. There were so many people in the court, why did His Majesty choose him?

Having reluctantly accepted the imperial decree, Ji Gaojie already harbored a deep hatred for Zhou Wu.

. . . . .

Zhou Wu was preparing to leave. There were still many things to deal with in the South China Sea, but before leaving, Zhou Wu decided to take the token to the royal treasury in the capital and fill his fleet.

"Who is coming?"

The royal treasury has more than one storehouse, and there are many stores according to their categories. Zhou Wu only needs to go to the treasury office and report what he wants and the quantity.

"I possess a gold medal bestowed by His Majesty."

Zhou Wu showed the gold medal, and the guards at the door all knelt down, no longer daring to stop him.

Upon meeting the treasury official, Zhou Wu directly stated his purpose.

"I am Zhou Wu, the Grand Commander of the South China Sea. I have come here on His Majesty's orders to allocate some supplies."

"Yes, sir, please have a seat. Just tell me what you need."

The treasury official smiled and led Zhou Wu to a seat in the main hall, asking him what supplies he needed.

"I need a large quantity, raw ores of copper, iron, etc..."

Zhou Wu wanted not only the scarce supplies from Dalong, but also a considerable amount, causing the treasury official to frown slightly.

Although the treasury officials did not hold high positions or ranks, they wielded considerable power. Even high-ranking officials would give the treasury officials some respect whenever they were within the treasury's territory.

Zhou Wu wanted so many things, but the treasury official sized him up for a long time and saw that he didn't react. He couldn't help but feel annoyed and cursed Zhou Wu for not knowing the rules.

"I'm sorry, you've asked for too much. The treasury doesn't have that much stock."

Since you don't understand the rules, let me teach you a lesson. The amount of inventory in the treasury is ultimately determined by the treasury official.

"Oh, how about a 30% discount?"

"nor."

The treasury official continued to shake his head.

"50% off?"

"still none."

"How much is that? I estimate only about 20%."

A 20% discount? What's the point? But the lack of stock isn't anyone's fault. I'll just have to come back next time.

"Okay, two-tenths it is. Please arrange for it to be delivered to the capital's dock."

Zhou Wu had no choice but to accept it; something was better than nothing. After giving his instructions, Zhou Wu left, waiting to finish loading the goods before leaving the capital and returning to his hometown.

Zhou Wu wandered around the capital for half a day while waiting for the cargo to be loaded. When he returned to the dock, he saw that there was no movement and thought that the loading was all done.

"Is the cargo all loaded? Let's get ready to go."

After boarding the ship, Zhou Wu stretched on the deck.

"What kind of goods, sir?"

The sailors on the ship were completely bewildered and did not understand what Zhou Wu meant.

"Damn, are you kidding me?"

Zhou Wu immediately realized that he had been tricked and that he had encountered a troublesome little devil.

Never one to suffer a loss, how could Zhou Wu tolerate this? He took a wooden stick from the boat and angrily went to find the treasury official.

Treasury and government offices.

It was time to leave the government office, and the treasury official liked to use this time to prepare a few side dishes and have a few drinks.

Those around couldn't leave since the treasury official hadn't left, so they just stood there waiting. But the leaders were being well-fed and cared for, while the lower-ranking officials could only watch helplessly.

Did the treasury official not know the situation of his subordinates? Of course he did. This was exactly the effect he wanted. Why drink in the treasury office when he could drink anywhere else? He just liked the feeling of being high and mighty.

"What the hell..."

Sitting in the courtyard, he even started humming.

The door was kicked open with a loud bang.

The treasury official, who was leisurely reclining in a rocking chair, was startled.

"Who the hell scared me?"

Looking up, he saw the young official who had come during the day to ask for supplies, the so-called Grand Commander of the South China Sea, Zhou Wu. He had been the treasury official for so many years and had never even heard of the South China Sea. He was probably just a nobody who had been given a title by His Majesty because of his ancestors' merits.

For this reason, the treasury official did not deliver the requested supplies to the dock after Zhou Wu left during the day.

However, Zhou Wu, holding a wooden stick, stood angrily at the gate, which did startle the treasury official. But he quickly calmed down. This was the Dalong Treasury Office. As the head of the office, how could he be afraid of a second-generation official?

"Master Zhou?"

Zhou Wu's entrance annoyed the treasury official, so he simply stopped pretending.

Why haven't the supplies arrived?

"Lord Zhou, because the Ministry of Works has a more urgent situation, the funds have been allocated to the Ministry of Works first."

The treasury official never expected Zhou Wu to come knocking on his door again, but being a seasoned veteran, he quickly came up with a reason.

"Everything has its order of arrival; doesn't the Treasury official understand this principle?"

“Lord Zhou, there are priorities. The Ministry of Works is even more anxious than you are.”

How do you know my matter isn't urgent?

"Uh~~~"

Zhou Wu's aggressive manner annoyed the treasury official, who thought to himself, "This Zhou Wu is really not going to listen. I'm giving you a way out, but you won't take it. So don't blame me."

“Lord Zhou, you have neither His Majesty’s edict nor documents from the Three Departments and Six Ministries. You ask for supplies without even asking. How am I supposed to know what you’re up to? As the treasury official, it is my duty to guard the treasury for His Majesty. It’s not a place where just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can come and take advantage of the situation and line their own pockets.”

"Bang!"

Zhou Wu didn't want to waste any more words and directly struck the other party with his stick.

"Ah~~~~~"

The treasury official, who had been pampered for many years, had never suffered such hardship before. He immediately collapsed to the ground, writhing in pain.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Wu unleashed a barrage of attacks, knocking the treasury official to the ground, where he was barely breathing. Fearing for his life, those around him rushed out to stop him.

"Lord Zhou, Lord Zhou, please stop! If you keep hitting him, someone will die."

"Stop hitting him."

"Sir, please calm down."

But Zhou Wu was the kind of person who believed in "I won't offend others unless they offend me, but if they bother me, I'll kill them." He continued to hit them with the stick a few more times before stopping.

"You didn't even bother to find out who I, Zhou Wu, am? Do you think this gold medal is fake? Even His Majesty's gold medal is useless now, I think you're finished too, damn it."

He spat a thick wad of phlegm directly onto the other person, disgusting everyone around him. They wondered what kind of person he was.
