Dressed as a family of cannon fodder, the villain brother is busy opening up wasteland

Datou listened carefully to Wen Yao's words. Although he knew that his sister must have hidden something, it was enough for him to know so much, and it was enough for his sister to tell him so much.

Until he finished speaking, Wen Yao's heart skipped a beat when she saw Da Tou's silent expression.

You shouldn't have scared him, right?

"Datou, actually, it's just a dream, don't take it too seriously." Wen Yao said softly.

Unexpectedly, Datou looked at her seriously and nodded: "Yes, sister, I understand, I will stay away from Shen Yan'er."

He originally lied to his sister. How could he have those feelings for Shen Yan'er? He just wanted to see if he could get more information from his sister. Unexpectedly, his sister actually told him.

Hey, what will I do with such a simple and easy-to-deceive sister in the future?

He must grow up quickly to protect his sister, his eldest brother and his father.

But she didn't know that because of his words, Wen Yao had been worried for a long time. Wen Xiuyi and Wen Jun were not around, so she didn't even have anyone to discuss with, so she could only take one step at a time.

After that, Datou still went to the palace to study with the princes every day. A month later, the fourth prince was released from confinement, and Shen Yan'er recovered from her injury and returned to the palace to study with her.

Wen Yao saw that Da Tou never mentioned Shen Yan'er again during this period, thinking that he must have heard some of the things she said. No matter how much Da Tou believed it, she had already reminded him that Da Tou was so smart that he would definitely find out that Shen Yan'er Yan'er is a problematic person, so she will naturally stay away from her.

Wen Yao and Li Yi have been busy making telescopes and compasses. The compass is easier to make with Si Nan in front. As for the telescope, the lens burned by Zhuo Yi has some problems, either it is not clear enough, or it cannot be seen clearly. Not far enough.

In short, she almost tore through the books on telescopes she bought in the space. Finally, as Zhuo Yi's glass-making skills became better and better, and the quality of the glass became higher and higher, their efforts were finally not in vain. After some research, this telescope was finally made.

Nowadays, it has become popular for every household in the capital to replace glass windows with orders from glass factories that are scheduled until the end of the year. Zhuo Yi brought out a few apprentices and gave them ordinary glass to make. He followed Wen Yao and thought about these. For weird things, technology is naturally getting better and better.

Wen Yao took the telescope and asked Li Yi to take her to the roof of the glass factory. She looked in the direction of the capital with the telescope from a distance. Things two miles away could be clearly seen, but further away it started to become blurry. is the capital.

There is a distance of five miles from the glass factory to the capital. Although I can't see everyone clearly, I can see the outline of the capital and the city gate, as well as the figures of people coming and going at the gate.

"It's almost interesting." Wen Yao murmured and sighed, having to admit that sometimes pure handicrafts are still not as good as postmodern high-tech and sophisticated instruments and data, but to be able to do this is already a good thing. Couldn't be better.

Li Yi was standing next to her, and his brows jumped when he heard her words. During this period of time, he stayed with Wen Yao in the glass factory, and he almost became a craftsman. Wen Yao said this every time, because of this sentence , what Zhuoyi has done before will be overturned and restarted.

He was not idle here either, he followed suit, so when he heard Wen Yao's words, he subconsciously felt a little nervous.

Putting down the telescope, Wen Yao handed it to Li Yi: "Take a look."

Li Yi took it and was shocked at just one glance.

Compared with the previous ones, this one is really better than a little bit, and the distance and definition are much higher.

Li Yi already felt it was amazing, but even so, Wen Yao still felt that it was a little bit awkward. So what exactly is good?

He doesn't understand.

Li Yi put away the telescope and waited helplessly for Wen Yao to say continue.

However, he had some selfish motives in his heart. If Wen Yao continued to study and pursue excellence, he would definitely accompany him. But if Wen Yao agreed with this, he wanted to show it to Uncle Huang.

If this thing is used in the army, it can improve the efficiency of sentry posts. They can also detect enemies in the distance immediately, giving everyone more time to prepare.

Li Yi didn't say this, just waited silently.

Only this time, Wen Yao didn't say anything more. She just asked him to take her down from the roof, find Zhuo Yi, and ask him to make a few more according to this standard. It would be better if he could do better.

After that, he took the compass and the telescope that he had made before and called Li Yi back to the city.

On the carriage back to the city, Li Yi was a little curious.

"Yao Yao, what are you doing these for?" Li Yi never asked Wen Yao why she wanted to make a compass and a telescope, but she suddenly said she wanted to make something new, so he accompanied her.

Wen Yao played with the compass and telescope, lying on the window to look outside from time to time. After hearing his words, she turned around and sat down, and replied: "Just having fun."

Li Yi: "..."

She said she made glass for fun before.

Seeing him like this, Wen Yao laughed out loud and said: "I'm teasing you, doing this is of course useful.

Sister Rong's family sent her a letter years ago. Most of the Qiu family's business has now moved to the south.

I don’t know if you still remember that His Majesty said a few years ago that he wanted to reopen the sea trade. The sea trade was opened in the previous dynasty, but it was closed later for some reasons. From that time when His Majesty said it, the Qiu family had already planned to go this way. There is a road, so in the past few years, they have been developing their business in the south, making money while preparing to go to sea.

Although I tried it twice with the imperial court, the boat that went out has not returned yet, and I don’t know whether it was a success or a failure, but there is still hope after all, right? "

Li Yi was stunned: "So?"

Wen Yao just smiled: "Uncle Qiu wrote to Sister Rong years ago, saying that he had prepared a lot of goods and ships and wanted to give it a try again. This time he planned to go in person. Although he left behind the sea trade There was very little information, but there was still some information, including navigation charts. After slowly exploring, they were finally able to find a way.

Sister Qiu is as close to us as a family and treats me like her own sister. I don’t want anything to happen to Uncle Qiu and Brother Qiu. The most difficult thing when sailing overseas is to identify the direction. At sea, Si Nan is of little use, but with it..."

Wen Yao raised the compass, her cute smile showing two dimples: "The compass can identify the direction under any circumstances, which is extremely beneficial to navigation. And with this telescope, on the endless sea, you can see things several miles away." It allows them to detect danger early and avoid it.”

Wen Yao explained it this way, but in fact the compasses and telescopes she planned to send to the Qiu family were more sophisticated ones bought in space, but she needed a cover, so she had been busy with this matter in the past few months.

Li Yi smiled helplessly. He knew that the girl he liked had always been bold and careful. How could he waste time doing unrealistic things just for fun? Everything she did was... I said I thought it was fun, but in fact everything has great significance.

Such as this.

He smiled: "You know, these two things are also very useful when marching and fighting."

"Ah? Really?" Wen Yao pretended to be stupid: "Then do you want to show it to His Majesty?"

"Is it okay?" Li Yi asked.

Wen Yao: "Of course. Didn't you also make this thing?"

Li Yi wanted to say that he was just a handyman, but then he thought about it. This would distract people from Wen Yao, and it was also a way of protecting her.

He acknowledged the credit.
