Chapter 16: Laughter Like a Silver Bell

"Is this still a guess? If such a huge institution does not have a hematopoietic function and relies on financial allocation, I am afraid it will also be a big burden on the national treasury, right? ”

Konka finally digested the meaning of Shang Tao's words, and then said, "That's the same." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoBy the way, Shang Gongzi, since you plan to go out of the grassland, why did you turn back halfway? ”

"Because the second leader of the horse bandits was killed by me, the horse bandits can't catch up with me, and they will definitely catch up with the Ye family caravan and kill them to vent their anger, so I simply brought them back, on the one hand, to avoid the pursuit of the horse bandits, and on the other hand, I also want to ask the Ye family caravan to help me transport all the things here." After speaking, Shang Tao began to observe Konka's reaction.

"What? You're going to take everything with you? Konka shouted dissatisfiedly, and the four big words "I don't agree" seemed to be written on her beautiful face.

"Well, that's what I intended." Seeing that Kang Xiaololi was a little excited, Shang Tao said weakly.

"No way!" Konka raised her delicate chin and said categorically.

Sure enough, Shang Tao knew that this would be the result, people were swordsman, I was fish and meat, so he had to keep silent.

"Gee, that's not what I meant." Kang Jia hurriedly explained: "Shang Gongzi, the major passes that have entered the customs now may have ambushed heavy troops a long time ago, just waiting for you to throw yourself into the net." ”

"Oh, why are they ......, wait, do they want to kill me to save the future?" Shang Tao quickly figured out the key, his identity as a traverser was obviously a hidden danger for the ruling class.

You must know that in the history of this world, almost half of the dynasties were established by time-travelers, Shang Tao subconsciously thought that among at least 50 or more time-travelers, only a few people became emperors in the end, which seems to be a bit too low.

But if you think about it, for rulers, this percentage is probably so high that it is difficult for them to sleep.

"It's not enough to kill you, but the best outcome is to lock you up in a small, heavily guarded courtyard, and then you don't want to get out of that courtyard for the rest of your life." Konka explained.

Put yourself under house arrest? The more Shang Tao thought about it, the more he felt that there was really such a possibility, and he couldn't help but be shocked.

After all, he is a traverser, even if he is a ruffian who does not learn and has no skills, he has a certain value for the ruler of this world.

Not to mention anything else, at least a time-traveler like himself can provide a clear direction for the development of science and technology in this world.

For example, although I can't build an airplane, I can't even tell the principle of being ugly. However, if you tell yourself about the shape, size, and main components of the aircraft, and then study it in this direction over several generations, you may be able to figure it out.

Shang Tao seriously doubted that the things that should not have appeared in this world might have been made out in this way, after all, the traversers could not all be scientists, and the only reasonable explanation was that they provided a direction, and then some smart people in this world studied it repeatedly, and finally made those things out.

Perhaps there are special institutions in this world that are secretly researching "black technologies" such as electricity and steam engines.

After all, Konka's booklet recorded more than 50 time-travelers, many of whom were time-travelers from the same era as himself, such as the "Ning Yi" who traveled to 500 years ago, and Tang Zhengzheng, the founding emperor of the current dynasty, Shang Tao can basically conclude that they are all people of the same era as himself.

"Shang Gongzi, or you just stay on the grassland, the Central Plains is really too dangerous." Konka saw Shang Tao's brows tightened, thinking that he should be thinking, so he struck while the iron was hot and opened his mouth to stay.

"I still want to go to the Central Plains to have a look and appreciate the quaint and natural style of the Central Plains." When he thought of the ancient cities of the Central Plains, the antique buildings, and the countless classical beauties living in the countless green buildings, Shang Tao couldn't help but be fascinated.

"But...... But you're going to be caught by them, and then they're going to lock you up in a small, well-guarded courtyard, and you'll only see a small piece of the sky the size of a palm for the rest of your life. ”

"Really? Did your grandfather's grandfather's grandfather lock up the other time-travelers when he found out about them? ”

"No, I didn't. Didn't you notice a pattern? In our world, it seems that there will only be one traverser in the same period, so when Emperor Taizu's grandfather was in power, he didn't even find out about one other traverser. ”

"Oh, and that like that?" Shang Tao hurriedly took the booklet over again and flipped through it from the beginning again.

Five minutes later, Shang Tao closed the booklet, pushed it back in front of Konka, and then said, "It seems that this is really the case." By the way, what about your grandfather's grandfather's grandfather's sons and grandsons, have they ever discovered the traversers and put them under house arrest and locked them up for the rest of their lives? ”

"What? It's a mouthful. Emperor Taizong's grandfather and Emperor Gaozong's grandfather seem to have found the traverser, but I don't know the specific situation. But even if it is locked up, it is normal, after all, except for our Kang Dynasty, every emperor of other dynasties and dynasties has also done this. ”

"Hey, hey, I said girl, you've messed up your seniority."

"Humph! I'm glad to do it, or you say, what am I going to call them? ”

"Don't call me a girl! I'm a princess, even if you don't call me a princess, at least call me Miss Kang. Konka was still angry about Shang Tao calling her name before.

"Well, actually, the word Miss has been played with in our world."

"Broken? What do you mean? Konka tilted her head and asked puzzled.

"Anyway, the word has become more than pure, in our world, it represents a lowly profession."

"What is a profession?"

"Well, it's the business."

"Oh, what does Miss represent in your world?"

"Uh, for prostitutes."

"Huh?! How can this be. Konka's face was incredible.

"That's why I call you by your first name, in our world, classmates, uh, classmates, colleagues, and friends who don't know each other well, usually call each other by their names, and it's not rude to call each other by that name."

"Oh, that's right. So what do familiar friends call each other? ”

"Familiar friends? Then you can call it without a surname, but it will be very awkward to call only one word for a single word name, so it is generally necessary to add a 'A' word in front of it, or add a 'sub' word in the back, but this method is generally only suitable for male friends to be called so, and girls are generally called by overlapping methods, such as after we are acquainted, I can call you Jiajia. ”

"That's no different from us."

"Uh, okay. So what do you think I should call you Jiajiahao? Or is it better to be Xiaojia? ”

"Or ...... For the time being, let's call me Konka first. Konka's cheeks were red again, and the fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl was at the age when she was prone to blushing, and she couldn't stand a little teasing, so she quickly changed the topic: "By the way, tell me about your world?" ”

"What do you want to know?"

"Whatever."

……

Half an hour later, the two guards guarding the door outside the house would hear the girl's silver bell-like laughter from inside the house.
