He did know about ships. A group of people pushed wooden wheels at the bottom of the cabin. This was an existing ship, and it was only used for navigation or on large rivers.
But he had never heard of a steamship.
Seeing Di Renjie's confused face, Muchuan also suddenly remembered.
It seems that I haven't mentioned the steam engine to this disciple yet.
"Huaiying, go to the workshop when you have time. There, you will get in touch with the future."
Muchuan said with a smile.
For Di Renjie, Muchuan planned to focus on training him.
First, in ancient times, a teacher had the same status as his father, and Di Renjie could also be regarded as half of Muchuan's son.
For your own son, you can give him more trust.
Second, Di Renjie is quite smart. If he is interested in science, he can even be put in charge of the workshop in the future.
Di Renjie nodded. He had also heard that the teacher opened a workshop on the outskirts of the city after returning from the war, and then ran there almost every day.
Before leaving, Di Renjie felt worried and asked again, "Teacher, are you really okay?"
"Does there seem to be something wrong with me?" Muchuan asked with a smile.
At this point, Di Renjie finally felt relieved and was ready to resign.
At this time, Muchuan thought of something and quickly called Di Renjie.
"What did the teacher say?"
"Huaiying, it's better to choose the right day than to hit it. Why don't you go to the workshop today and take a look at it, and take this blueprint with you."
Muchuan arranged: "Tell the craftsmen that except for the steam engine, other projects will be canceled for the time being, and we will work hard to study this blueprint."
"yes!"
With the blueprint in hand, Di Renjie also resigned.
In fact, Muchuan was in a really bad mood before drawing the steamship blueprint.
What made his mood change suddenly was the birth of a bold decision.
Princess Changle wants to marry Songtsen Gampo, right? If Songtsen Gampo dies, won’t Li Shimin’s wishful thinking come to nothing?
As for how to kill Songtsen Gampo? The easiest way is of course to assassinate him.
When it came to assassination, Muchuan naturally thought of Xiaoying.
It's just that it will take a month to take Xiaoying from Baekje, relying on the existing ships.
If something happens at sea, it will become Muchuan's lifelong guilt.
Therefore, Muchuan thought of developing a steamship.
Now that steam engines can be manufactured in batches, the research and development of steam ships is not difficult.
No, Muchuan just spent a while to design the blueprint.
According to the current technical capabilities of the workshop, it is estimated that it will not take long to complete the construction of the steamship.
With steamships, the sailing speed would be ten times faster.
Take Dengju to Baekje Reef City as an example. The voyage originally took more than half a month, but it only took more than a day when it was replaced by a steamer.
After making arrangements for the steamer, Muchuan was in a good mood.
So I decided to go find Wu Yuanhua.
You know, Wu Yuanhua has another task that is closely related to his life.
"Brother Mu, are you back from the palace?"
When they arrived at Wu Yuanhua's room, the little girl was running around in a hurry.
Seeing Muchuan coming, I was extremely excited.
Muchuan nodded, "I've been back for a while."
"Brother Mu, you must have seen the current Saint, right? What does he look like?"
Wu Yuanhua asked, even with some expectation in his eyes.
Seeing this, Muchuan couldn't help but feel a little unhappy.
After being baptized by "The Legend of Mi Yue", this little girl still hasn't given up the idea of entering the palace.
Muchuan did something bad and deliberately disfigured Li Shimin's appearance.
I learned that Li Shimin was over 1.5 meters tall, half of his old teeth were missing, his skin was chapped and dry, and he even had body odor.
This series of information, coupled with Muchuan's vivid description, made Wu Yuanhua couldn't help but shudder.
"Brother Mu, since His Majesty is so old, why does he still draft girls?"
Wu Yuanhua expressed his biggest confusion.
Muchuan spread his hands and said: "People grow old but their hearts never grow old."
Wu Yuanhua felt even more chilly.
Although she wanted to enter the palace, she still had fantasies about the emperor.
I thought the emperor would be as handsome and majestic as the portrait.
But through Muchuan's description, she found that she was completely wrong.
However, Wu Yuanhua missed one point. She did not expect that Muchuan would dare to deliberately vilify the emperor's image.
Seeing that Wu Yuanhua seemed to be wavering, Muchuan took advantage of the situation and continued to tell the story of the adapted "The Legend of Zhen Huan".
In order to impress Wu Yuanhua, Muchuan also described the emperor in Zhen Huanzhong as a bad old man.
After telling the story, Muchuan found that Wu Yuanhua actually started crying.
"Miss Wu, why are you crying?" Muchuan asked knowingly.
Wu Yuanhua sobbed: "Zhen Huan is so pitiful, and I find that she is just like me. She married someone she doesn't like at all for the sake of the family."
"Yes, Zhen Huan doesn't have a choice, but Miss Wu, you still have a choice."
Hearing this, Wu Yuanhua was stunned for a moment and expressed that he did not understand what Muchuan meant.
Muchuan smiled and touched Wu Yuanhua's head.
For some reason, Wu Yuanhua didn't feel any resistance to this kind of intimate physical contact.
"It's understandable that you want to revitalize your family, but entering the palace is not the only way."
Hearing this, Wu Yuanhua's face turned red inexplicably.
She had already guessed what Muchuan wanted to say.
"Please give me some advice from Brother Mu."
Wu Yuanhua's face was already red, but he couldn't help but glance at Muchuan secretly.
Looking at Muchuan's extraordinarily handsome face, Wu Yuanhua's girl's heart almost boiled.
Since ancient times, everyone has a love for beauty, and women are no exception.
What woman doesn’t want her husband to be a handsome man?
Muchuan said gently: "You can stay here with me, which is much better than entering the palace."
"Yeah" Wu Yuanhua made a voice as faint as a mosquito, obviously extremely embarrassed.
It is actually good to marry Brother Mu. Brother Mu is already the Minister of the Ministry of Finance at such a young age. He will definitely become the Minister of the Ministry of Finance in the future. This can be regarded as rejuvenating the family.
The strong thought of entering the palace had slowly dissipated at this moment.
Muchuan continued: "Stay here with me and do business with me. I will open a clothing chain store in the future, and you will be the shopkeeper."
When he said this, Muchuan found that Wu Yuanhua's face suddenly froze.
Muchuan thought that Wu Yuanhua had no future as a shopkeeper, so he quickly described the prospects of a clothing chain store.
"You can rest assured that our clothing chain store will open all over the world in the future. By then, your status as the general manager will not be much worse than those of other high-ranking officials."
"Maybe one day, envoys from all nations will come to you specifically to buy clothes."
"I do not want!"
Muchuan was excitedly describing the future, but Wu Yuanhua pushed Muchuan away and ran out of the house crying.
Muchuan stayed where he was, but his face was confused.
Guaguai, she is indeed the future empress. Even being a shopkeeper of such a great position would look down upon her.
