Chapter 681: Luxury
Guo Wenying's level of archery is average, but the level of this gun is extremely high, and even few musketeers in the firearms battalion can catch up with her. With just a slight lift of the hand, the bullet flew out and landed squarely on the target, shooting the entire target away.
"Good. Duan Weichen cheered, "The power of this firearm is really strong, if it hits someone's head, I'm afraid that the head will have to shoot away." ”
He has a handsome face like an official knife, and the whole person emits a kind of king aura that shocks the world, and there is a smile on his handsome face at the moment, the smile is very gentle, but people can't feel the slightest sense of cordiality.
Guo Wenying looked at his smiling face, and couldn't figure out for a moment whether he was speaking from the bottom of his heart or insincerely.
But if it's a compliment, it's all true.
She said: "If the prince likes it, how about I make one another day and give it to the prince?" The implication of this sentence is that you can give me the firecracker.
Duan Weichen didn't seem to have any intention of returning the firecrackle to her at all, and only smiled slightly, "I didn't expect Master Zhang to make firecrackers." ”
Guo Wenying hurriedly said: "I can't talk about it, but I know a little bit." She said and said: "There is a firearms bureau in Beijing that is quite famous, I don't know if the prince knows?"
These words aroused Duan Weichen's interest, he took the white towel handed over by his subordinates, wiped the sweat on his head, and then said to Guo Wenying: "Since Lord Zhang is here, please go to the flower hall for tea." ”
He said that he would go forward, as for the firecracker, he had already handed it over to his subordinates to take it down, and he didn't even ask Guo Wenying's meaning and took it for himself.
Guo Wenying couldn't cry or laugh, no matter how thick-skinned she was, she couldn't get it back at the moment. Even if she wanted it, there was nothing she could do if she didn't give it to her.
I thought, forget it, it's just a firecracker, even if it's the latest design, it's not worth turning against Duan Weichen now.
She followed behind the King of Yunnan, Duan Weichen was rare and kind at this time, and introduced to her what was in this garden along the way.
It's really true to say that this prince likes to collect strange things, and the road they came from is nothing, except for bamboo and trees, but it is immediately different when they change to this road. It is really three steps and one scene, two steps and one thing, and there are many transparent boxes polished with crystal on both sides of the road, and there are many antiques and strange things inside, each of which seems to be priceless. There are also specimens made of exotic beasts, and before that, there are specimens of birds, and potted plants and trees.
Guo Wenying took a few looks, most of them didn't know him, and he didn't know where he had collected them.
Seeing the crystal box, Guo Wenying suddenly remembered the manufacturing method of glass, its practical glass is more transparent than this natural crystal, and the cost is cheaper.
Entering the flower hall in front, Guo Wenying took a look and found that the furnishings of this room were very simple, but it was gorgeous.
The room is peculiar, not the usual square, but round, with a ring of fixed benches against the wall. The benches, the walls, and the ceilings were covered with magnificent animal skins, which were as soft as the most precious carpets.
Among them, there are lion's skins with fluffy manes, tiger skins with colorful stripes, leopard skins with beautiful dots, pure white bear skins, and blue fox skins, all of which are extremely valuable. The skins were laid out on top of each other, as if walking on the grassiest racetrack, or lying on the most extravagant bed.
The whole room is also covered with crimson brocades decorated with gold flowers. In the recess of the room, there was something like a couch, on which lay several swords, the scabbards were gilded, and the hilts were inlaid with dazzling gems.
A glass lamp hangs from the ceiling, charming in shape and color, with ankle-high wool carpet under its feet, several curtains hanging in front of the door, and another door leading to a second room, which seems to be illuminated even more magnificently.
Guo Wenying was amazed, and said in his heart, this king of Yunnan is rich, and he is really rich, just an ordinary hall is already like this, and I don't know how gorgeous his residence is.
The two sat down separately, and then someone served tea.
Guo Wenying took it and tasted it, the taste was very strange, and I don't know what kind of tea it was, but the food culture here is different from that of the Central Plains, and there are a lot of insects in the food, anyway, she doesn't dare to say it at all.
After taking a sip, the tea cup was put aside and never touched again, but Duan Weichen should have been thirsty, so he drank all the tea in a big gulp.
He glanced at Guo Wenying and said, "You say, what is your name?"
Guo Wenying said: "Xiaguan Zhang Buti." ”
"What position do you have in Beijing?"
"General Huwei. ”
Duan Weichen let out an "oh", a little unsure of whether it was okay or not.
Guo Wenying had originally prepared a whole set of rhetoric to prove her identity, and even why the emperor sent her to Yunnan and what she was doing in Yunnan had already thought about it, and waited for him to ask questions, but Duan Weichen didn't even ask. Just casually discussed with her some customs and customs, and some knowledge about the manufacture of firearms, especially he was very interested in the Beijing Firearms Bureau, and he wanted to take some time to go to Beijing to have a look.
Yunnan is located in a remote area, and the transportation here is not developed, so it should not have its own firecracker team, but this prince can't help but pay too much attention to it, which makes people wonder, what does he want to do?
Guo Wenying didn't want to say too much about the firearms battalion, especially the production process of firearms, which was also a secret, and this extremely powerful weapon of destruction, once in the hands of others, would be extremely detrimental to maintaining the stability of the Southern Qi Dynasty and the situation of the dynasty.
She deliberately diverted the conversation, and said: "Lord, when I passed through the garden just now, I saw many crystal boxes placed by the prince, and Weichen has one thing that can replace this crystal product, which is not only transparent, but also can build a large area, so that the prince can put all the things he likes into it for people to enjoy, and if the lock is placed, it also plays a role in preventing theft." ”
When Duan Weichen heard this, he was really interested, and hurriedly asked, "What is the one you are talking about?"
Guo Wenying smiled: "I named this thing glass, which is very similar to glass, but the manufacturing process is slightly different, and the cost is cheaper." ”
Duan Weichen said, "Then can you make it soon?"
Guo Wenying smiled, "It can be made, but is the prince sure that he wants it?"
Duan Weichen said: "You just make it and send it over, I'll look at the sample and then decide, if you are satisfied, whatever you want, you can exchange it with you." ”
