It's no wonder that Huo Eighteen would be like this, just like Li Hui said that if you can't bring back this thing with oil, it means that this thing has no value, as for wild animals, that thing is just a beast, and if you bring back a few at most, you will give it to the emperor in exchange for some benefits, but this is not what you value, as for diamonds, that thing is not a valuable thing!

Li Hui saw something in Huo Shibai's somewhat disappointed expression, and she smiled and said to the maid Cuiping behind her: "Go and bring over the set of jewelry that I just sent over two days ago!"

Cui Ping hurriedly went to the room to take out the jewelry box, she was very impressed with this jewelry, in the past few days, the young lady and her own grandfather had an awkward relationship, and she never gave him a good face, but when the lord took this set of jewelry back, the young lady was unprecedentedly ruthless and fast A few words!

"This~~!" Although Huo Shibai said that he was a rough man, he knew a lot about jewelry, and he knew that all kinds of gems and other things accounted for a large part of his list of overseas transactions, so he only needed to see at a glance that the set of jewelry in the box was made of diamonds, but he was surprised that the size of these diamonds was not very large, and countless faces were cut out on each small stone, so that the original diamonds of any color were more and more transparent to sparkling.

"How did this thing get cut?" Huo Shibai asked a very professional question, he knew very well how hard the diamond was, it was not easy to polish at all, and it was not like other gems with a variety of colors, so it would always be disfavored, but if these diamonds can be polished, and polished like this, even if this thing has no color, but just for this shining appearance, there will be many women who like it.

"I don't know exactly how it was cut, but it's certain that this thing can be cut!" Li Hui looked around at her side and said, Li Shuo didn't have her side today, so she was a little unaccustomed to it, in fact, because the New Year was close to the end, Li Shuo also had a lot of things to deal with, so it was difficult to see him at home during the day for two days.

"If that's the case, then you can continue to walk south!" Huo Eighteen held his chin and said, that Tiana was bought by him in the farthest place he had traveled so far, and the young lady said that the place where Tiana lived was even farther away, but if someone else could pull those black people over, it meant that there were people in that place, and he couldn't spend some money to hire a sailor who was familiar with the navigation route when the time came.

"By the way, Uncle Eighteen~!Is the sea still too peaceful in recent years?" Li Hui suddenly asked.

"It's not very peaceful!" Huo Shibai didn't hide anything, and said directly: "In the past few years, there have been more and more ships from other countries at sea, and this pirate has become more and more rampant!

Li Hui thought for a while and said to Huo Eighteen: "Uncle Eighteen, I have something I want to show you, let's go to the study and talk!"

As soon as Huo Eighteen heard Li Hui say this, he immediately followed Li Hui to the study with a smile, he had seen Li Hui's skills when she was still young, it can be said that if it wasn't for the way Li Hui told him how to prevent the sea plague back then, he would not have reached today's status. So he's looking forward to what's next.

Li Hui took a special key and opened a special box in the study, and took out a stack of papers from there, "Uncle Eighteen, this is for you~!"

Huo Shibai took the stack of paper and didn't open it immediately to see what was inside, but asked Li Hui first: "What is this?"

"The drawings of the cannon~!" Li Hui said this answer completely beyond Huo Shibai's expectations, but his heart was also more excited, you must know that the fleet encountered a lot of dangers when it was at sea, so it also needed more powerful weapons, in fact, his fleet was also equipped with cannons, and since Li Huineng solemnly handed over this drawing to himself, it also showed that this cannon would definitely be more powerful, so he hurriedly opened the paper.

Huo Eighteen also knew something about the cannon, but he couldn't see the drawings given to him by Li Hui very clearly, but as these drawings went down one by one, he could also feel that this cannon should be powerful now.

Li Hui saw that Huo Eighteen was attracted by those drawings, and he was still very proud in his heart, this thing can be placed in this It is definitely a complete black technology, as for how she could be such an unpopular thing, then I really have to thank my father in my previous life, Li Hui's father in my last life was an artillery company commander, when I was a child, Li Hui was the master of climbing the cannon every day, because she was in contact with these things since she was a child, so she was very clear about the internal structure and operation principle of the cannon, and even when she was a child, she also mixed gunpowder with her friends, and she couldn't make the cannon herself under the modern and complex process, but it is no problem to improve yourself on the basis of these backward and deadly earth cannons.

"If this cannon is made, the effective range should be twice as long as the current cannons, and the accuracy will be much higher, and I have improved several shells!" Li Hui said, leaning back in his chair.

Huo 18 really didn't expect this cannon to be so powerful, in fact, he was still thinking that if this cannon could be increased by two or three achievements compared to the current cannons, who would have thought that Li Hui could actually double the power of this cannon, just thinking about it, if his fleet was equipped with such a cannon, when he encountered the enemy at sea, the opponent's cannon would not be able to hit him at all, and the cannon on his side would have been bombarded by the other party, just thinking about such a scene made people's blood boil。

"This is great~~!This is great~~!" Huo Shibai was very excited and hurriedly put these drawings in his arms, "Wait a minute, I'll let people arrange it, and build a few of these cannons before going to sea next year!"

"Uncle Eighteen, I remember that there should also be a place to produce diamonds on your sea route, right?" Li Hui still remembered that when he looked at Huo Eighteen's sea route map before, he saw the information, and there were two places where diamonds were abundant.

"Yes~~!" Huo Shibai nodded, he also understood why Li Hui asked himself: "Is Miss planning to make those diamond jewelry?"

"Hmm~!" Li Hui nodded and said, "Since there is a way to cut diamonds now, I want to open a gold shop!"

"If Miss wants to open a gold shop, it must be very good, it just so many years have accumulated a lot of gems, we have a sea route, opening a gold shop is the best!" Huo Shibai also agreed that he could bring back a large number of gems every time he went to sea, and the profit from simply selling these gems was definitely not more than making them into jewelry, like the largest gold shop now is the Huo family.

In fact, Li Hui wanted to open a gold shop after meeting Huo Shiba, especially Li Shuo actually found a way to cut diamonds, which suddenly raised Li Hui's operability to a new height. And with Huo Eighteen's support behind him, opening a gold shop is really a stable and non-losing business.

Huo Eighteen was very low-key when he first came to Li Hui, so no one knew about it at all, but this time he came to enter in a completely high-profile manner, especially now that Huo Eighteen's identity was revealed, all of a sudden, the number of people who came to visit Li Mansion every day completely skyrocketed, and the greetings sent over were also terrifying.

"What are you going to do? Don't they all have to celebrate the New Year? Run into other people's houses all day long!" Li Hui frowned and complained to Li Shuo, who was combing his hair.

And Li Shuo was overjoyed by the home that Li Hui unconsciously talked about, Li Hui has now agreed in his heart that this is his home, is that also saying that it is not far from Li Hui accepting himself?

"What are you doing?" Li Hui sat there and waited for a while, but Li Shuo didn't answer, and turned his head to hit him very unhappily, "Did you hear that?"

"Ah~~!" Li Shuo nodded hurriedly, "I have already arranged this, in the Jiang family's garden in two days, we will all go over when the time comes!"

It's not that Li Shuo doesn't want to hold a banquet in his own house, although he says that it is a three-entry courtyard here, it is still too small, so it is better to be in the Jiang family's garden. And because of this, he is now planning to find a suitable big garden!

"In two days?" Li Hui's brows furrowed instantly after hearing this, "Why did you tell me at this time, I didn't prepare anything!"

"It's okay~!" Li Shuo said as he combed Li Hui's hair and inserted a step shake on her bun, "I have already prepared it for you!"

After saying this, Li Shuo instructed the maids to bring up all the clothes that had been prepared a long time ago, these clothes were prepared by Li Shuo before, he had followed Li Hui for so many years, and he knew her preferences and style very well, and these clothes were also specially customized by him.

Li Hui was a little hesitant after reading these clothes, these clothes are all her favorite styles, especially in the color matching, which makes her like it very much.

"Let's wear a set!" Li Shuo took out a set of the brightest red color from it, "Although this color is very bright, it matches your skin tone very well!"

Li Hui thought about it for a while, and now she is catching up with the New Year, and there is nothing wrong with wearing a festive one, especially the unique lines embroidered with gold thread on this dress, which makes her like it very much.

However, Li Hui found something when she took a closer look at the clothes, she whispered to Li Shuo: "You made this dress yourself!"

Although Li Shuo said that he was a man, he pretended to be a maid and stayed by his side for many years, and it was also at that time that women should know that he would know what those women were popular, and he was very outstanding, and even most of his clothes and shoes were from Li Shuo's hands back then.

"Hehe~~!" Li Shuo just laughed twice when he heard this, he didn't dare to tell Li Hui now, not only this dress, but even the underwear that Li Hui was wearing now was made by himself, if Li Hui knew about this thing, it was estimated that he would definitely break his head.

Two days later, Huo Shibai looked at Li Hui's dress and nodded with satisfaction, "Well~~!good~~!good~~~!Miss will dress up like this in the future!"

··························

"How did you hear that Miss Li and the eighteenth master of the Huo family know each other?, do you know this matter?" Tang Wanrou asked casually while helping to sort out Jiang Huaiyuan's clothes.

Jiang Huaiyuan pulled his collar and cuffs a little nervously and said, "I really don't know about this, but I heard Li Shuo say that the Eighteenth Master and that Miss Li knew each other in their early years, and it seems that the relationship between the two is still quite deep!"

Tang Wanrou listened to these words slightly, it seemed that she was helping Jiang Huaiyuan take care of her clothes, but it covered the expression on her face, and the somewhat hideous expression completely lost her usual gentleness and tactfulness, in the past, she was secretly happy for Li Hui's background as a cook, but she didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, the other party would actually pick up the famous eighteen masters of the Huo family, how could this make her heart balanced.

In fact, it's not just Tang Wanrou's heart that is unbalanced, Jiang Mingyue is going crazy when she hears it at this time, when she knew that Li Hui was a cook girl before, she didn't want to mention how happy she was in her heart, in her opinion, the other party's identity compared to herself, even if she was a fool, she knew that she should choose herself, but she didn't expect that the other party would actually know the Huo family, and she also knew such a big figure as the Huo family, and now she suddenly felt that Li Shuo would choose the other party, was it because of her relationship with the eighteenth master of the Huo family？

The more Jiang Mingyue thought about it like this, the more she felt that it made sense, and the more she felt scared in her heart, she didn't think that Li Hui's background was bad now, even if her background was low, as long as she could pull this eighteenth master of the Huo family, then her identity would instantly become different!

Jiang Mingyue, who was anxious in her heart, couldn't help but run over to discuss this matter with Tang Wanrou, in her opinion, she couldn't think of any other way now, it was better to find Tang Wanrou to come over, she was smarter than herself, there would definitely be a way!
