A USB-C Thunderbolt Display that delivers power over the cable and has a USB hub built into it. These exist, though they're expensive.

Or, an eGPU enclosure, which also delivers power over the cable and has a USB hub built into it. (You just need to plug a monitor into it.) These exist, and are surprisingly cheap if you buy them bundled with a graphics card.

Not all Mac USB-C ports are Thunderbolt, though...for instance, in the MacBooks.
