The more I think about it, the more I realize that life in Shenhua Continent is really not easy...
Yan Zhaobai came back this time because the warships equipped by Donghuan for the navy were too poor. After being launched into the water, they were not as stable as fishing boats. Practicing the navy on land all day long was no different from talking about war on paper, and it was really meaningless.
"In a day or two, new warships will be sent to the army." Si Haochen counted the days and it was time for Bai Shen to return with the first batch of warships.
"Get something reliable. Nowadays, those broken ships and sails don't need to be hit by anyone. If the waves are bigger, they can be smashed to pieces." Yan Zhaobai felt that Emperor Danxu was really stingy. He had never seen anyone more stingy than Donghuan Navy.
A broken ship.
"Since the founding of the Donghuan Kingdom, there has been almost no naval battle. Even if you give the emperor a discount, you can't allocate a few taels of silver." Emperor Danxu was so hardworking that he even withheld food and grass. How could he be expected to purchase equipment for the navy?
Not successful?
"Anyway, hurry up. I am the prince of another country. I will definitely leave Donghuan and return to Nanrong years ago." After careful calculation, it didn't take long.
Since there is not enough time and it is difficult to train many people, it is better to use a battleship as an example to train a team and have a reference in the future.
Si Haochen communicated the new idea to Yan Zhaobai, and Yan Zhaobai also thought it was feasible and readjusted the training plan in his mind.
"During this period, if you can bring out two independent lieutenants, I will give you a battleship." Si Haochen firmly believed that there will be brave men under the heavy reward.
Yan Zhaobai didn't even bother to roll his eyes. Don't you even know what kind of situation you are in as a navy? Even those broken boats are used for fishing and you don't dare to go far...
Ming Ruo knew that Yan Zhaobai treasured a warship made of iron nanmu, and saw that the fifth brother was about to refuse. If he refused and knew what he had missed, he might not even be able to express his regret by beating his chest, but at least his chest would be broken.
Therefore, Ming Ruo gave Yan Zhaobai a crazy wink and asked him to agree.
When Yan Zhaobai saw Xiao Jiuer's funny expression, his brain twitched and he nodded.
Afterwards, Zicao served the mandarin duck hotpot, which was milky white and fragrant, while the red and fragrant bottom of the pot was bubbling on the small red clay stove, which was particularly suitable for the cooler weather. Aunt Dong and
Ji Yue brought out various hot-boiled dishes again.#@$&
Yan Zhaobai was in the army. In his free time, he often made a side stove with the soldiers, boiled a pot of water, blanched the freshly caught fish and shrimp in the pot, and dipped it in the sauce. It tasted pretty good. Moreover, everyone ate together, and the atmosphere was also good.
good.
But the one prepared by Xiao Jiuer was obviously much more exquisite. Not only was it rich in ingredients, it even came with three kinds of dipping sauces.
Like everyone who tried hot pot for the first time, Yan Zhaobai was quickly captured by the charm of hot pot. He was originally not a big fan of spicy food, but he was so spicy that he burst into tears, so he still stubbornly ate spicy pot.
It wasn't until he had finished his meal and had a good rest in the guest house that Yan Zhaobai remembered that he had promised to train two lieutenants for Si Haochen.
Moreover, the reward may also be a broken battleship built by Souchou - Have you been tricked by this couple? Xiao Jiuer was completely led astray by the black sesame glutinous rice balls. Well, it is all the fault of the black sesame glutinous rice balls!%&

Early the next morning, Ming Ruo took the sachet prepared for everyone in the Duke's Mansion and planned to go to the Duke's Mansion to visit her maternal grandfather's family. As soon as she walked out of Meiyuan, she met Bai Shen, who had been tanned by N degrees and had returned from a long journey.
.
"Princess, please be well." Bai Shen showed a unique gentle smile.
Mingruo used to think that Bai Shen's smile was quite polite, but now Master Bai has become Master Black, with his big white teeth that are particularly conspicuous, and he looks like an iron fool, and he is inexplicably a little more happy.
"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Bai." Mingruo looked at Bai Shen's skin color, which was almost like that of his African friend, and could already imagine the hardships of shipbuilding.
"It's all a subordinate's business." Bai Shen cupped his hands, "I wonder where the prince is now?"
"It's in the study. Go quickly." Mingruo suddenly remembered that Si Haochen said that Bai Shen would bring the first batch of battleships back, "Did Mr. Bai bring back the battleships?"
"Exactly." Bai Shen's eyes lit up when he mentioned the battleship. The prince would definitely be satisfied with such a mighty and domineering battleship.
"When will the prince go see the battleship, remember to ask him to ask me to come with him." Ming Ruo just wanted to see how many wonderful ideas the Frankenstein Mr. Yu had in the battleship he supervised.
"Don't worry, Princess, my subordinates will tell the prince." Bai Shen walked away happily.
Seeing Master Bai walking away, Zi Su whispered: "Master Bai, this is too dark. None of the farmers in Zhuangzi can compare with him."
Jiyue grew up in Nanrong, which was not too surprising. After all, the skin color of the fishermen is similar to that of Mr. Bai: "It's windy and sunny at the seaside, so you'll get like this if you stay for a long time."
"If Mr. Bai were here, I would definitely not dare to recognize him." Zi Su never expected that Mr. Bai, who originally looked like a weak scholar, now looks like a hard-working tenant. Just because he is tanned, he is completely different.
human effects.
Compared with the two maids' relatively tactful complaints, Qin Mo was more direct.
"Yao Shou, Lao Bai, did you come back in a charcoal car?" Qin Mo's eyes widened, as if he had seen a monster.
Before returning home, Bai Shen also knew that he was tanned, but he didn't take it seriously. It wasn't until he was stopped by the concierge that he realized the seriousness of the problem. Along the way, whether it was the maid or the boy,
He was still a guard, and when he saw him, he had a look of surprise on his face, and Bai Shen almost shut himself up.
Fortunately, the princess was quite calm when she saw him and was in a good mood, but she suffered another critical blow from Qin Mo.
Bai Shen really didn't want to talk nonsense to this lookless pig teammate, so he went straight to the study room.
"Hey, hey, why don't you say anything?" Qin Mo followed Bai Shen towards the study.
"say what?"
"Tell me how the warship is built, how many we brought back this time, the customs and customs of Nanrong..." Qin Mo listed a bunch of topics for Bai Shen.
Bai Shen rolled his eyes at Qin Mo and still didn't bother to pay attention to him.
"Hey? Why have your white eyes become so big? Have you practiced some evil skills?" Qin Mo looked at the tanned Lao Bai, always feeling that something was wrong somewhere, and finally said, "I will still call you 'from now on'
Lao Hei', right?"
Bai Shen's fists clenched loudly. If he hadn't reported something serious to the prince, he would have wanted to beat this guy first. He was obviously just a little bit black, but he actually gave him a nickname. This was too much: "Get out of here."
!”
"No!" Qin Mo walked into the study one step ahead.
Bai Shen first reported the manufacturing status of the warships, and then said that he had brought back five warships this time. According to the drawings given by the prince, coupled with the improvements made by Mr. Yu and Lu Qiaojiang, the warships not only increased their sailing speed, but also innovated crossbows and catapults.
Artillery was also added.
Si Haochen was very satisfied and planned to go see those battleships immediately.
"The battleship was successfully delivered to the army last night, and the prince can go and see it at any time." Bai Shen continued, "However, the princess knows that her subordinate has brought the battleship back, and she wants to go and see it with the prince."
