Sheng Qi said embarrassedly: "I just want to play, as long as it's fun, anything is fine... If only I could be like Meng Er, you see Meng Er, his favorite thing is to attract bees and butterflies, now he has become the third place in the Ministry of Commerce, selling sewing machines, attracting bees and butterflies, becoming an official, and earning a salary to support his family. I'm so envious, how great it would be if I could be like this?"
He sighed for a while, and then asked, "By the way, what do you want to do?"
Prince Ke said blankly: "I...I don't know either."
"How could I not know? Just think about it, what makes you feel most comfortable when doing it? What do you feel like doing most?"
Prince Ke shook his head honestly: "I don't feel anything."
Sheng Qi said, "Oh," and asked, "Are you not happy when you do business?" Seeing his expression, he was very surprised: "Why do you keep doing business?"
Prince Ke was silent for a moment.
He recalled that when he was a child, he was not liked by the late emperor. Then one time, he saw the late emperor sitting in the imperial garden with a sullen face. Someone told him that the late emperor had no money to build a Buddhist temple and he should go and comfort him.
He didn't know that the person who said that to him had bad intentions, so he really ran over, took his hand and said to him: "Father, don't worry, Fourteenth will make money for you to spend!"
The late emperor was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and asked him, "How are you going to make money for me to spend?"
...
...
He was only three years old at the time, and didn't know what was going on, but he managed to say, "Go do business at 14."
It might be a coincidence that the late emperor was amused and laughed out loud, praising him for his innocence, kindness and filial piety. From then on, his status in the palace changed dramatically. Moreover, the late emperor always liked to tease him and asked him, "When will Fourteenth go to do business?"
At that time, his mother had already taught him a lot, so he replied seriously: "I will go when Fourteen grows up a little bit."
"Does Fourteen like doing business?"
"Fourteen likes Father."
When he was very young, he knew that his father's love was very important.
After being teased day after day, the idea of "doing business" became deeply rooted in his mind, as if apart from doing business, he didn't know what else to do... to be likable.
But now his father has long passed away, and his brother has a daughter who is better at business, so it seems that there is no need for him to do business... But if he doesn't do business, what else can he do?
He was lost in thought.
However, Sheng Qi is not someone who would calm down and give him enough time to think.
He asked a series of questions, "What do you not like to do?"
"Huh? There's nothing you don't like? Then what are you good at?"
"Good at drawing? Are you really good at drawing? Are you good at drawing?"
Prince Ke said uncertainly: "It should be pretty good, right?"
Sheng Qi told him seriously: "If you can do something well, it means you like it! Let's go home now and draw it for me!"
Is that so?
Prince Ke was involuntarily dragged back to the palace by Sheng Qi to paint.
At this time, in a workshop in a corner of the palace, Yan Shiyue and the craftsmen finally succeeded in making a compound microscope that could magnify about three hundred times.
In fact, the basic structure is composed of two lenses, a metal lens barrel, a stage and so on... This is already the umpteenth version. Yan Shiyue finally nodded, and the craftsmen also breathed a sigh of relief.
Then Qu Sinian, Ren Zenan and Zhou Jianwei also came over after receiving the news, ready to witness this historic moment.
As soon as they walked in, Jiahe asked very consciously: "Shall I catch flies?"
Yan Shiyue nodded.
Qu Sinian asked curiously: "Why do you still want to catch flies?"
Yan Shiyue smiled without saying anything, and then Jiahe caught one as if he was familiar with the situation, and put it on the loading platform before it was completely dead.
Qu Sinian vomited: "What is this for?"
Yan Shiyue smiled and said, "You will know when you take a look."
He waved his hands and refused: "No, I won't watch it! Why would I watch this!"
In comparison, Zhou Jianwei had no burden of being a nobleman, and came over immediately. Yan Shiyue taught him, and Zhou Jianwei leaned in to take a closer look, then exclaimed: "He has hair on his legs! Ugh... He has hair on his body too!"
Qu Sinian said: "Stop talking..."
Zhou Jianwei asked, "Ah? Why are there so many dots on its eyes?"
Yan Shiyue explained to him lovingly: "This is called a compound eye. It means there are many, many eyes, hundreds or thousands. Flies and butterflies are like this." She scared him: "So if there is a fly landing in front of you, it is actually being stared at by thousands of eyes. Are you scared?"
Zhou Jianwei grinned, revealing an expression that was hard to describe.
Ren Zenan also became curious, took a look, and was amazed.
Although Qu Sinian suspected that they were pretending to attract his attention, he still couldn't help it. He covered his mouth with a handkerchief, came over to take a look, and then shuddered, "I have goose bumps..."
He retched and asked, "How much do you sell this?"
Yan Shiyue said: "You can make some ordinary ones and sell them to antique shops, jewelry stores, etc. But the most important thing about this thing is not to sell it, but to..." She looked at him: "Let humans better understand the world."
Qu Sinian nodded to show that he understood.
Although I felt sick, I was still curious and couldn't help but take another look: "Those eyes, what kind of compound eyes, are there really so many? Why do they have so many?"
Yan Shiyue said: "I don't know!"
Qu Sinian raised his eyebrows: "Is there anything else you don't know?"
As he was talking, Huo Qijing arrived, and Qu Sinian immediately invited him enthusiastically: "Come here, Prince, come and take a look at this, it's so interesting!"
Huo Qijing knew this, so he smiled and said, "Do you think Yue'er can let me go? I've seen this happen so many times."
The first time he saw it, he was watching it just before dinner. She pushed him over with her eyes blindfolded. He looked inside... and thought it was something else, but it turned out to be a worm. With his tolerance level, he was so disgusted that he didn't eat for the whole night.
But he had seen it dozens or hundreds of times and was used to it. He even came over to take a look and said, "Are they flies again? Jiahe, catch them a caterpillar!"
"Don't!" Qu Sinian said, "I won't watch it! I really won't watch it!"
Zhou Jianwei said, "I'd like to take a look, Brother Jiahe, can you really catch him?"
Jiahe smiled and said, "Just wait, I now know where all the bugs in the garden are hiding!"
He really went to catch it for him. Qu Sinian turned his head decisively. Ren Zenan stood there in a dilemma, feeling disgusted and a little curious. Yan Shiyue really didn't want to see the caterpillar, so he pulled Huo Qijing away and asked, "Why didn't you hold the baby today?"
Whenever Huo Qijing came back, the children would throw themselves at him. Whenever he went to look for her, he would hold one or two of them in his arms.
Huo Qijing said: "My Fourteenth Uncle drew a picture, and the children loved it so much that they gathered around to look at it."
Yan Shiyue was a little surprised, "Uncle Fourteen can also draw?"
As they were talking, they came over and saw Sheng Qi riding the Sun Chaser. Yan Shiyue said, "Sheng Qi, you..."
Then his eyes widened in surprise!
