Chapter 98 Learning to make tools on the ancient border (54)

Prime Minister Yin Guiming said: "Your Majesty, how can our territory of Wei be easily handed over to others? Your Majesty, we must not let the border officers and soldiers feel cold."

"Prime Minister Yin, you can't say that. We, the Wei Dynasty, are a country of etiquette. How can we be as rude as barbarians? Moreover, it is really difficult to govern a barbaric land. This is also to reduce the pressure on the court."

Yin Guiming flicked his sleeves and robe, "Huh! You are shaking the foundation of my Wei Dynasty..."

Emperor Wei put down his wine glass and said, "Okay!"

Yin Guiming wanted to speak again, but in the end he could only sigh.

Today was the celebration banquet, and Emperor Wei was impatient to listen to their quarrel, so he waved his hand to indicate that they would discuss it later.

This made Xiao Yanjin and others very angry. They knew that it was not a good thing for this person to stand up. They finally captured Hu Mang, and now this group of people actually asked them to return their territory.

Chu Kui's face was expressionless, but if you look closely, there was no warmth in his eyes at this moment.

After the banquet, Chu Kui heard that his servants came to report that Shen Fangshi had left seclusion and hurried to another courtyard.

Xiao Yanjin and Qi Diaosi originally wanted to discuss the matter with the general about Hu Di just now. They saw Chu Kui leaving in a hurry and asked in confusion: "General, what's the matter in such a hurry?"

Xiao Yanjin said with a clear face: "It must be the little tenon that got out of seclusion."

Isn't Mr. Lin the only one who can make their general care so much?

When Chu Kui arrived, Shen Fangshi was studying and improving the "Telescope".

Although this house is not as gorgeous and spacious as Prince Yu's Mansion, the pavilions and pavilions are still exquisite, with winding verandahs, carved embroidered sills, green bamboos, flowing springs, and a courtyard dotted with rocks, which makes it feel like traveling to the south of the Yangtze River.

Among them was a room specially prepared for making crafts when Chu Kui was Shen Fang. All kinds of tools and facilities were available in it.

Different from the "telescope" that can be made with two glass lenses, in the basic structure of later military binoculars, a lens tube is usually equipped with six glass lenses, two of which are rhombus lenses. It is to invert the image of an inverted object magnified by the objective lens and refract it into an upright object image on the focal plane of the eyepiece. There is also an objective lens, which is used to magnify the image of distant objects. The remaining three lenses are eyepieces, used to adjust the image into a frame that can be analyzed.

It can be said that the binoculars not only have the functions of old-fashioned telescopes such as observing the battlefield, studying terrain, and detecting the reality and reality of targets, but the better part is that the right eyepiece is equipped with dense divisions, which can make simple distance measurements. 1

Shen Fangshi was polishing his lenses when he saw Chu Kui coming and said with a smile, "You're here."

"Yeah." Chu Kui's face softened, "What are you doing?"

Looking at the object in Shen Fangshi's hand, "Is this also a telescope?"

"Well, this is different from a telescope. It's a binocular."

"This telescope is indeed an artifact. It can make the officer's command even more powerful, whether it is a marching sentinel, a confrontation between two armies, or a formation of troops."

"Yes, I am also planning to make an octant. If you go to sea by ship, this octant can determine the position and direction of the ship, and it can play a great role in surveying and mapping and ship communication and navigation."

Chu Kui's eyes narrowed slightly and he whispered: "Are you planning to go to sea? I heard that there are fairy mountains overseas."

"Not really. I read a book by chance. The book records that in addition to the land where Wei is located, there are many countries overseas, where there are people different from us, as well as various high-yielding crops and precious gems. , if you can build a ship that can sail on the sea, you can go to those places."

Shen Fangshi often went abroad in his last life and was not curious about overseas. However, now that the system has even sent out tasks for building cars, it is estimated that building ships will also be inevitable. He feels that it is necessary to prepare in advance.

Moreover, maritime trade is an inevitable process of history. As long as it is operated properly, it will be of great benefit to the country and private individuals.

Chu Kui seemed to be relieved and said with a smile: "What kind of crops have such high yields as sweet potatoes and potatoes?"

"Of course, there are not only food crops, but also things with various uses." For example, tomatoes and rubber.

"Are you going to go in person? The waves on the sea will be very dangerous."

"Not sure. If I go, won't you be there?"

Chu Kui understood what Shen Fangshi meant, with a smile on his eyes and brows, "Yeah."

"By the way, my father's birthday banquet will be in a few days. I have been busy with military affairs these days. After the birthday banquet, I will accompany you to take a tour of the capital."

Shen Fangshi had no objection to this. He had cultivated to the point of building the foundation and was about to relax and not be in a hurry to complete the task. Just when he was about to agree, the system suddenly appeared.

["Di - Congratulations to the host for triggering side mission 1 and participating in the emperor's birthday banquet. (Note: Observing everyone's reaction to the emperor's gift, the satisfaction of everyone present reached 80% and above.)

Completion reward: A detailed sea map of the world (including country distribution, maritime resources, etc.). ”]

"..." So Shen Fangshi could only change his words, "Is the emperor's birthday banquet interesting? Can I go to the banquet?"

Chu Kui was a little surprised that Shen Fangshi was curious about the birthday banquet. To him, banquets in the capital were boring and meaningless. If possible, he would rather not attend and just accompany Shen Fangshi to make crafts.

But since he had wanted to go there for many years, he didn't want to let him down. He nodded and said, "Well, I will take you to the palace for the banquet then."

"I haven't been to such a banquet yet, but in what capacity will I go? Your attendant?"

Chu Kui knew that Shen Fangshi didn't want to reveal his identity, so he followed him and said, "Okay, I will make arrangements when the time comes."

"Zhi Ming, are you interested in the dragon chair?" Shen Fangshi asked suddenly. He actually didn't really care whether Chu Kui wanted to be emperor, but he was suddenly curious.

Chu Kui did not feel offended and said directly: "I have no intention of being emperor. It makes no difference to me whether I am an emperor or a general."

Compared to the throne, he wanted to travel the mountains and rivers with Jing Nian more, and he was full of expectations for Jing Nian's talk of traveling to the sea together. Furthermore, he was not interested in this imperial power struggle, and he was not willing to get involved in this muddy water.

The new telescope was almost ready, and Chu Kui stopped disturbing Shen Fang, and just watched him quietly from the side.

As the sun set, broken gold sprinkled on the two of them, like a colorful painting.

The emperor's birthday is also called the "Qianyuan Festival". Every day on this day, everyone celebrates and is very lively. The emperor's birthday banquet is indeed full of singing and dancing, and the scene is grand.

Before the birthday banquet begins, the prince and officials will first congratulate the prince and present birthday gifts. Most of the birthday gifts are centered around the themes of happiness, longevity, and auspiciousness, such as jade, wood carvings, porcelain, jewelry, etc.
