Chapter 255: Ideas on Opening Navigation
Jiang Tangtang blinked, "How could I be fake?"
Lu Shiyan suddenly raised his hand and pulled her into his arms, as if he was worried that what was before him was just another illusion, and would disappear in the blink of an eye.
"You waited like this all night?" Jiang Tangtang's eyes felt a little sore. While she was worried about her carelessness that had caused him trouble, she felt a sense of joy and satisfaction in her heart.
He cares about himself!
The warm breath sprayed on his neck, bringing Lu Shiyan back to his senses from the surprise of regaining what he had lost.
The smooth touch, the softness on the chest, and the sweet fragrance surrounding him made him realize his current situation.
All the blood in my body rushed to one place.
He suddenly covered his nose, let go of Jiang Tangtang, and turned around, "Hurry up and put on your clothes."
Jiang Tangtang blushed as she returned to her inner room to get dressed. By the time she came out, Lu Shiyan had already cleaned the room. There was no trace of the nosebleed on her face.
Only the red bloodshot eyes revealed his inner torment last night.
Jiang Tangtang quietly brewed a cup of ginseng tonic tea and brought it to him.
When he saw Jiang Tangtang, his ears, which had returned to normal, turned red again. He subconsciously covered his nose and quickly took the tea that Jiang Tangtang brought him.
"This is for replenishing your blood and qi. Drink it and take a rest." Jiang Tangtang pursed her lips and said, "I'm sorry, I—"
"You don't have to apologize, you never have to feel sorry for me." Lu Shiyan interrupted her, "Just tell me next time you leave. No matter how long you're gone, I'll wait for you. If you don't want to say more, I won't ask more. But... that's all I ask."
Jiang Tangtang suddenly felt heartbroken.
She heard humility in his tone.
She made the God of War, who never bowed to difficulties and would even resist imperial power, beg her humbly.
Just ask her to tell him when she leaves.
She couldn't help but start to reflect on herself.
She was attracted by his handsome appearance, moved by his strong sense of responsibility, and shocked by his outstanding kung fu...
She liked him, but she still had reservations.
She left herself a way out, thinking that one day, when she felt disappointed, she could withdraw at any time.
Her protective attitude made her keep her last secret tightly, never talk to him in depth, and let him make wild guesses.
But he used everything he had to embrace her.
Never ask about her secrets, just try your best to help her keep them.
Wasn't her reservation a kind of harm to him?
"It doesn't matter if you don't agree to my request." Lu Shiyan raised his hand in panic and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with his fingertips, "Don't cry, it's my fault..."
"You are not wrong, it's my fault for not considering your feelings."
Jiang Tangtang grabbed his hand and rested her head on his chest. "Can I take you to see the place I went last night? Actually, you were there last time, but you were unconscious, so you can't remember."
Lu Shiyan finally understood that not only was he fine after his hand was poisoned last time, but his internal strength also improved.
He was naturally curious about Jiang Tangtang's world. But he quickly suppressed his curiosity and said, "Let's talk about it next time. I have to go to the military camp today. I just want to know that you won't disappear and let me not see you again."
He didn't want her to feel any pressure.
I don't want to explore her mysterious world under such circumstances.
He felt that it was inappropriate for him to make any demands on her.
"I will definitely not disappear." Jiang Tangtang felt a little complicated.
She had finally made up her mind to take him into the space, but he had refused. She wasn't sure she'd have the courage next time.
"That's enough." Lu Shiyan drank up the tea Jiang Tangtang had brewed. "I can't have breakfast with you today. I'll teach you the inner skills when I get home tonight."
He had just brought back nearly a hundred rhinos from the forest. In addition to training soldiers, holding competitions, and selecting suitable people to form a rhino strike team, he also had to select special personnel to feed the rhinos.
It had been nearly two months since he left the military camp, and there were many official tasks waiting for him to deal with.
He is really busy.
Jiang Tangtang wasn't having an easy time either. She had a lot to deal with, and it was a mess. She casually ate a few fruits from the space for breakfast and then plunged into the busyness of the new day.
The fruit trees of the large-fruited banyan tree are planted after most of the ripe fruits have been picked. There will be no fruit to pick for the time being, but the people who manage the orchard must prepare the workshop for making fruit wine first.
Jiang Tangtang was busy when Yuan San came to report, "Madam, General Xie sent someone to bring Shi An here. Would you like to meet him?"
"So fast?" Jiang Tangtang was a little surprised. When did the speed in ancient times become so fast?
Yuan San's eyes were filled with excitement. "The shipyard recently built a new large ship. This ship is thirty zhang long and nine zhang wide. It's twice as fast as the previous ships. It only takes three hours to travel from Baodao to Qiongzhou. You may not have had time to read the official documents sent by the shipyard."
Jiang Tangtang searched the table and found the official document sent by the shipyard.
The official document first reported the surprising news to her, and then detailed the difficulties they had encountered in the past two years, the help Lu Shiyan provided them with the information, etc.
"I'm not going to see Shi An anymore. Please ask someone to hand him over to Zhang Liang and let Zhang Liang take care of the arrangements." She wanted to go and see the big ship built by the shipyard first.
If it is true as reported by the shipbuilding department, then opening sea routes, exploring overseas territories and achieving trade can be put on the agenda.
Jiang Tangtang first went to the dock to see the newly built ship.
Because it was a newly built ship, we needed to observe its operation more closely. In addition to the staff, there were also several officials from the shipyard.
When the officials heard that Jiang Tangtang had come to see the ship in person, they were flattered and knelt down to pay their respects.
Jiang Tangtang couldn't stand this culture of kneeling at every turn. Especially when she saw a group of gray-haired old men kneeling before her, she felt that there was a lack of respect for the elderly and love for the young.
She quickly excused the old men from their greetings and asked about the progress of shipbuilding.
She didn't know how to build a ship, and she didn't ask those professional questions. She only asked whether the ship could be mass-produced and how long it would take to produce such a ship.
"The first time we built a ship, we were feeling our way forward. It took us so long to build one, but next time we'll definitely be able to build it faster. However, if we want to expand production, I'm afraid the shipyard won't have enough manpower. And..."
The old men at the shipyard began to make demands.
In addition to money, there are also people, iron and other materials.
Money and iron are not a problem, but the problem of manpower is a headache for Jiang Tangtang.
If they just need to do some heavy work, it's easy to do. Just pick some refugees and send them over.
The old men at the shipyard actually came to her looking for people with shipbuilding skills and researchers to expand the technical team.
Jiang Tangtang rubbed her temples. Was she going to the Great Zhou court to recruit people again? But as far as she knew, the shipbuilding industry in the Great Zhou was not good, and she probably didn't have many people who could be used.
