ch 379 - The Misunderstanding was Resolved; The Visit of the Parents 4 (2/2)

After hearing that, Cheng Biyuan and Zhou Jinjiang exchanged a look. Surprised, they couldn’t help but ask, “Xiao Xiao, you mean..?”

“Dad, if we come out with our own gold coin, do you think the emperor would be alright with that?” Cheng Xiao Xiao looked at them and asked softly.

Cheng Biyuan did not respond, but turned and looked at Zhou Jinjiang, consulting him wordlessly.

Zhou Jinjiang had served the emperor up close and personal previously, he would be the best person to ask about this. Zhou Jinjiang thought about it for a minute and said, “No problem, Qing’an Province is now the Lord’s personal property. No matter what decision he makes, it wouldn’t have too much of an impact. Worst case scenario will be others copying us is all.”

“That’s good to know!” Cheng Xiao Xiao was no expert in political management nor was she interested in it. She said to Zhou Jinjiang, “Uncle Zhou, I will give you 2 million in gold coins in a little bit, you can use them as you see fit!”

“What? Two million?!”

Zhou Jinjiang’s eyes were about to fall out; even the ones next to him was stunned. They had not expect the dimension to have so much gold.

SSSSSSSS—

Zhou Jinjiang gasped after he recovered. After he had calmed down some, he asked with a quivering voice, “Xiao Xiao, can you show me what the gold coins look like?”

“Sure!”

Cheng Xiao Xiao found their reaction amusing. With one wave of her hand, she immediately produced a handful of gold coins sparkling in front of their eyes.

They were the size of a thumb, about 1 centimeter in thickness, weight that of half a tael. Seeing these kind of gold coins for the first time, each of them picked one up to look at them more closely.

With their experience, of course they could tell that these were real gold. Zhou Jinjiang couldn’t help but smiled bitterly, “Xiao Xiao, have you found a gold mine that we didn’t know about? This is too incredible.”
