Early the next morning, Muchuan heard the noise in the mansion.
In desperation, Muchuan quickly stood up and went to check.
Could it be that he has an assassin?
"what happened?"
"Reporting to the young master, Butler Di is back!"
The so-called Butler Di refers to Di Renjie.
Hearing this, Muchuan was also very happy.
Although it's much later than expected, at least I'm back!
Muchuan hurriedly left the hospital and saw Di Renjie and his party at the door.
"Owner!"
At this time, a figure came from above, jumped directly onto Muchuan's back, and hugged Muchuan.
The voice was extremely exciting, even tinged with tears.
Muchuan was extremely familiar with this voice and knew it was Mu Yingchen.
"Xiaoying, get off my back first."
Muchuan couldn't laugh or cry.
With Xiaoying holding her hands like this, Muchuan couldn't even look at her.
Mu Yingchen was obedient and quickly jumped down from behind and stood obediently in front of Muchuan.
Looking at Mu Yingchen's aggrieved look, like an angry little daughter-in-law, Muchuan couldn't help but laugh.
"Xiaoying has grown up."
Muchuan smiled and touched Mu Yingchen's head.
Compared with when they parted, Mu Yingchen has grown a lot taller, and her body has become much plumper from being skinny at the beginning. Her whole person has also become more beautiful, and she looks like a beautiful woman.
Mu Yingchen enjoyed Muchuan's head-touching very much, her eyes narrowed, and her face was filled with happiness.
"Master, I never want to be separated from you again this time!"
Mu Yingchen suddenly opened his eyes and said seriously.
"Okay, okay, we won't separate."
Muchuan would not refuse.
He originally planned to keep Xiaoying by his side.
It is best for special talents like Xiaoying to stay by their side.
The two of them were expressing their feelings here, but it made everyone else extremely embarrassed.
When Mu Yingchen came back to her senses, she realized that everyone was staring at her. She was already thin-skinned, but when she was stared at like this, she suddenly became extremely panicked.
Mu Yingchen was seen running up the wall like a cat, and he didn't know where to hide.
Muchuan smiled and said nothing. He knew very well that Xiaoying was not far away, but was just guarding him silently in a corner.
This familiar feeling is really good.
At this time, Di Renjie walked towards Muchuan.
"Disciple pays homage to teacher!"
Muchuan looked at Di Renjie, but was startled.
"You, where's your hair?"
That's right, although Di Renjie can't be said to be bald now, his hair is quite short, about the same as a hair inch.
In ancient times, those with such short hair were basically lazy monks.
As for why I insist on saying he is a lazy monk, it is because only lazy monks are so industrious in shaving their heads. Real monks have no hair on their heads.
Hearing this, Di Renjie sighed deeply and said bitterly: "It's a long story, but that was at sea."
Muchuan patiently listened to Di Renjie's story and finally understood why they were so late than expected.
It turned out that Di Renjie and his party had sailed smoothly and were already halfway through.
It's just that the boss of the boat was greedy and ate some strange fish, so he was poisoned to death.
Now, except for the boss of the ship, no one knows the navigation chart.
In desperation, Di Renjie could only bite the bullet and take the lead.
Being a monk was really unprofessional, and Di Renjie brought everyone into the eye of the storm.
Fortunately, the steamship was made entirely of steel and was quite strong, and it managed to hold up in the storm.
If this were an ordinary ship, everyone would have been buried under the sea.
Although his life was saved, Di Renjie's hair was caught in the wheel during the storm, and he had no choice but to cut it off.
Originally, Di Renjie still had some hair left, but Mu Yingchen insisted that it would be better to shave it all off, and then without any explanation, he gave Di Renjie a thumbs up.
This is the reason why Di Renjie lost his head.
In addition, after the steamship encountered a storm, all the steam engines were scrapped.
If everyone hadn't been lucky and happened to encounter a giant whale coming out to spray water, they might have been trapped at sea forever.
Xiaoying made full use of her abilities and established a good relationship with the giant whale.
As a result, the giant whale turned into a power source, carrying the scrapped steamer and bringing everyone to the coast.
Regarding the experience of Di Renjie and his party, Muchuan rated it as extremely thrilling.
No matter which link goes wrong, everyone will definitely die.
"By the way, what did you do with the ship?"
Muchuan remembered something and asked quickly.
Just kidding, Muchuan spent a huge price to build the steamship. Just the steel to build the hull cost Muchuan nearly hundreds of thousands of taels of silver!
It can be said that such a steamship is not much worse than the aircraft carrier of later generations.
Of course, this kind of comparison is a vertical comparison. If it were a horizontal comparison, it would be more superficial.
Di Renjie replied: "Teacher, you can rest assured that the steamer has been entrusted to the escort agency in Dengzhou to transport it."
Hearing this, Muchuan was speechless.
Let the escort transport the steamer?
This cannot be said to be fanciful, it can only be said to be fantasy.
You know, steamships are quite huge. Even though this No. 1 ship is relatively small, it is still ten meters long and nearly six meters high. It can be called a behemoth.
Di Renjie seemed to see Muchuan's worry, and quickly added: "Teacher, don't underestimate the Escort Bureau. Although our ship is big, the Escort Bureau can still transport it. After all, they have even transported elephants."
After hearing what Di Renjie said, Muchuan could only believe it for the time being.
After all, the power source of the steamer was broken. If Muchuan were to find a way to transport it back, it would take a lot of effort. It would be better to just trust the Yixin Escort Agency.
"Mr. Mu, I haven't seen you for a long time."
At this time, a familiar female voice sounded.
Muchuan looked along the source of the sound and found Liu Ruyu walking towards him.
Liu Yeyu, a business wizard of Baekje.
When Muchuan sent Di Renjie to pick up Mu Yingchen, he had told him to bring Liu Ruyu back as well.
There are two reasons.
First, Muchuan is in dire need of business talents. If Liu Ruyu comes, Mu Mansion's business can be left to her.
Secondly, Muchuan still doesn't believe in the Liu family. If he calls Liu Ruyu over, he can be regarded as half a hostage.
In this case, the Liu family can't ignore their daughter's life and go to report it to the official, right?
Di Renjie was very sensible and said quickly: "Teacher, Sister Liu, you guys chat slowly, I'm going to unload the goods!"
After that, Di Renjie ran away.
Speaking of which, Di Renjie also brought a lot of seafood when he came back this time, such as fish, shrimps, crabs, etc.
After all, Chang'an is located in the mainland, so you don't usually have access to these new things.
In fact, they originally brought some Baekje specialties, but they were hit by a storm and most of them were lost. It was a pity.
