"Although their hull structure is strong, our mortise and tenon joint technology can do a better job in the treatment of the joints."
Shangguan Ziqi nodded. Although he did not fully understand the technical details, he believed in his wife's judgment.
"In that case, why don't we incorporate our technology into it to make the ship stronger? Our shipbuilders can also benefit from it."
Yu Zheng's eyes lit up. "That's right! We can take this opportunity to combine Wei's shipbuilding technology with their design to build a more powerful ship."
"Madam is right." Shangguan Ziqi nodded in appreciation, "But the Wei Dynasty is not yet capable of doing this."
"Why?" Yu Zheng didn't react for a moment.
"Shipbuilding is the most expensive business. The national treasury is empty now, so we've donated all our money to the treasury."
"Well, we'll have to wait, but we can learn this technique first."
"Well, my father and I have discussed building a navy on the coast, but we have no money, so it is still in the plan now."
Yu Zheng listened and smiled: "Did you come up with this plan after hearing what I said about what will happen in the future?"
"That's right."
"Then I wonder if the Emperor would be pleased?"
"This time a group of foreigners came to Wei. We will bring them to Beijing to meet the emperor. He will understand how big the world is. If we lobby them again, there should be no problem."
Shangguan Ziqi didn't know that the prince had already thought of a solution and convinced the emperor.
This matter is over.
The two men looked around the two nearby counties and found that those close to the sea were not affected by floods, but were affected by wind disasters.
This year in the Wei Dynasty, a decrease in grain production is inevitable. In the next one to two years, the people's lives will become even more difficult.
But life still has to go on.
Time has slipped to the end of November.
The disaster relief work is basically coming to an end.
In addition to organizing the construction of rivers, they also helped the people build houses.
Help people return to their homes.
The soldiers brought by Shangguan Ziqi played a great role.
Later he transferred another 3,000 people to join them.
There was not much money left from their donations.
The biggest expense was building rivers, followed by building houses for the people.
On this day, Shangguan Ziqi received a letter from Yu Yunzhi and prepared to return to Beijing.
When Yu Zheng was free, he taught Edward and others to learn the language of the Great Wei.
Tell them about the culture and products of the Wei Dynasty.
Edward had sixteen people in his company.
They are all adventure lovers, outgoing, studious and humorous.
From their departure to the present, they have passed through countless countries, and this is the first time they have encountered a person who can flow in a strange country.
Everyone was excited, and as they got to know more about the Wei Dynasty, they wanted to get more in-depth exposure to the Wei culture.
When Shangguan Ziqi and his wife brought them into the capital of Wei, they were all amazed when they saw such a prosperous city.
"Your Highness, is this your capital?"
Edward was riding on his horse, and when he saw the quaint buildings on both sides of the street, his eyes were not enough to take in.
This architectural style is completely different from their Estria.
"Yes. Isn't it completely different from yours? And more artistic?" Yu Yuzheng smiled and pointed to several distinctive teahouses for him to see.
"Great! I'll draw it and bring it back to show our King." Edward was as excited as a child seeing a new toy.
Shangguan Ziqi followed the two of them silently.
Along the way, Edward kept pestering his wife to talk. If he didn't know that he was already forty years old, he would have suspected that this foreign man had a crush on his wife.
At first, he really couldn't stand it and specifically told his wife not to get too close to these foreigners.
But the lady nonchalantly talked about the lifestyles and habits of these foreigners, as well as their etiquette, forcing him to suppress his unhappiness.
Besides, my wife was the only one who could understand what they were saying, so I had no choice but to let them talk like this.
Amidst the shouts and exclamations of a group of people, Edward sent them to the embassy.
䀴Along the way, when the people of the capital first saw such strange people, they all screamed in fear. It was only after the guards explained to the people that there was no commotion.
The news that foreigners had come to Beijing spread quickly.
They had already written a memorial to report this matter to the emperor.
The emperor also arranged for someone to wait for them at the embassy.
Because they were bringing these foreigners back to Beijing, the couple walked a little slower along the way.
Yu Yunzhi and his son returned to Beijing ten days in advance and reported their positions to the emperor.
When the couple returned to the palace, they saw three children waiting at the gate.
Both of them jumped off their horses excitedly.
"Dabao, Erbao, Sanbao." Yu Zheng took a few steps up the stairs and hugged the children in her arms.
The couple didn't see their child for more than three months.
The children were about to turn four. She had only left Beijing a few times in the past four years.
I feel so sorry for them. Yu Zheng felt very sad.
"Mom! I miss you so much." All the children stretched out their little hands and hugged their mother.
Shangguan Ziqi came forward and without saying a word, picked up Sanbao and held him in his arms.
"Sanbao, do you miss your daddy?" Shangguan Ziqi kissed the child on the face.
"Hmph, I don't want to. Daddy doesn't love Sanbao anymore. Not only has he not come back for so long, he has never written to us."
"Well."
This stumped Shangguan Ziqi.
They had indeed never written any letters to their children. They had only written to their mother to greet the children.
"Humph, don't Daddy and Mommy know that we can read?" Sanbao felt more and more aggrieved as he spoke.
Tears started to flow as soon as I saw it.
"It's Daddy and Mom's fault. Daddy apologizes. If we go on a long trip again in the future, we will definitely write to you." Shangguan Ziqi promised.
"Then you can't lie to me. You must remember this." After hearing his father's assurance, Sanbao smiled, but tears were still on his face.
"Sister, don't cry. Crying is a sign of weakness." Dabao taught his sister a lesson like a real man.
Sanbao immediately wiped away his tears: "Who said I was crying? It was the wind that blew sand into my eyes."
"Yes, yes, yes, why would Sanbao cry? Sanbao is going to be a female knight when she grows up." Yu Yuzheng immediately supported her daughter's statement.
"Mom, hug me." Erbao weakly tugged at the hem of Yu Zheng's clothes.
Yu Zheng was not as vigorous as her husband. She squatted down and picked up Erbao.
But she still has a son, and there is nothing she can do now.
Each one weighs almost 30 kilograms, and she really can't hold two at the same time.
Dabao will make his own choice and jump onto the official chess piece.
Shangguan Ziqi caught it steadily, threw it high, and caught it again, sitting right on his arm.
It seems that they have played this game many times and have a tacit understanding.
The family of five arrived at the main courtyard, where the princess was already waiting.
"Meet mother."
"You are finally back. You don't know, but the three children know that you are coming back today. If I hadn't told them that you would arrive in the afternoon, they wouldn't want to go to the Jin family for class in the morning.
Then she came back early at noon and asked several times when you would arrive. Finally, she couldn't stay in the courtyard and insisted on waiting at the gate of the palace. She wanted to see you as soon as possible. "The princess said with a smile.
These words prompted Yu Zheng to kiss the second baby in her arms hard several times.
"Did your family listen to grandma's words carefully?" Yu Yuzheng asked.
"The children are all very well behaved. Dabao and Erbao once saw your father practicing sword in the yard, and they were actually interested and asked to learn sword techniques from him."
"Wow, you want to learn at such a young age?" Yu Yuzheng marveled at the child's precocity.
"Mom, I want to be stronger than dad when I grow up, otherwise how can I protect you and my sister?" Dabao has an ideal.
"Doesn't your father protect mom?" Yu Zheng deliberately made things difficult for Dabao.
"When I grow up, daddy will be old and won't be able to lift a sword." Dabao looked at his father who was not yet old with disdain.
These words are so heartbreaking that it makes people laugh and cry.
Just then, Butler Li came hurriedly to report that someone had come from the palace.
