Great Tang princess

Chapter 475 Development
In the next few days, Lu Zhenghao and Lai Junchen discussed various matters about how to inquire about news after returning home, and then they set off for Fan Yang together.

Before leaving, Li Yuechen told the two of them not to waste time, and to bear with it as much as possible, and to pass the news back.

Fan Yang is Lu's territory, so he can't easily send someone to follow him, otherwise he will be seen out.

In this era, the places where the aristocratic families are located often have extremely high social prestige among the people, and each of them can be transformed into a sunrise crowd, and be vigilant to every strange face that appears.

So this time when they go back to inquire about information, they can only rely on themselves, and Li Yuechen can't help here.

The two also nodded to express their understanding that everything must be based on investigation, and they would not act rashly even if something happened.

After everything was discussed, the two parties officially set off for Fan Yang.

After the two left, Li Yuechen also wrote a letter immediately, telling his mother about the matter here and how he handled it, so that she could understand the current situation.

The emperor wants to stabilize the country, so there must be absolutely no things that the emperor doesn't know. It's better to explain things to her in advance.

At the same time, I told my mother, don't worry, I will definitely tell her the details when the results of my investigation come out.

Li Yuechen believes that his mother will definitely listen to him. After all, as a daughter, he has not messed up things for so many years. This kind of thing still has a certain prestige.

……

Not long after this letter was sent out, I received a letter from the palace, mainly explaining that the name of the ship was Baidizi, including that the pilot's delivery point could be outside the Xuanwu Gate in the future.

The terrain outside Xuanwu Gate itself is flat, and the area is not small, so it is very suitable as a landing place.

At the same time, it can also prevent outsiders from entering the palace at any time, and don't worry about breaking the rules.

It would be nice to know that the soldiers responsible for guarding the Xuanwu Gate should be trained to assist in the assembly and disassembly of the hang glider, so that the efficiency of the hang glider in sending letters can be improved.

During this period of time, the pilot's theoretical knowledge is almost ready, and he is ready to start learning skydiving. After getting used to the parachute, the first batch of hang glider can be made almost. If there is no accident, the hang glider will be able to deliver messages next year. .

At that time, with the acceleration of communication speed, the connection between Dongdu and Shandong will be closer, which can indirectly strengthen the imperial court's control over Hebei Province.

Communication technology is an extremely powerful weapon, and it should be well developed in the future.

At present, the Qingdao Military Region is doing a lot of things. Leaving aside the hang glider for the time being, the research on the airship is also gradually progressing, and the Academy of Engineering has already produced a corresponding model.

Now we are waiting for the production of steel to increase, and then use steel and wood to build the skeleton of the airship, and it is expected that the flight test will begin next year.

Another thing is to make transparent glass faster, this thing can already be made, the only troublesome thing is that it is not easy to make, and it must be done carefully.

But now there are more than a dozen pieces, and it is expected that the glass greenhouse can be set up before the beginning of autumn, and the planting experiment can be started.

Li Yuechen's army says they are professional soldiers who don't do production, but in fact there are vegetable fields and farms in the military camp, and after training every day, they will do some farm work, such as watering and fertilizing the vegetable fields or feeding pigs, chickens and ducks Feed and so on.

It's just that they don't put their main energy here. The vegetable fields and farms are usually managed by people from the logistics team.

For combat troops, this kind of thing is actually more formal than practical.

……

Seeing that June is about to enter, the weather is getting hotter.

The barracks began to serve mung bean soup, which meant that the weather was already unbearably hot.

However, the people on the boat were even busier, especially Li Yuechen, who was hanging white paint and writing on the outside of the boat with a rope.

The emperor has already named it, so it is natural to write the words "Baidizi" on both sides of the hull.

The handwriting was provided by Li Xian, who currently writes the best royal handwriting, but the problem is that his handwriting is too small, and it is quite troublesome to expand it on the hull to become as big as Li Yuechen.

In this era without computers and printers, it is actually quite troublesome for craftsmen to enlarge the characters.

On the paper that Li Xian was asked to write, small squares had been drawn with a ruler in advance, and then he was asked to write in the pair of squares.

The character "his" is already very large, almost [-] centimeters in length and width, and it is already written with an oversized brush.

Then the craftsmen here will disassemble each gesture of the characters according to these small squares, and then draw larger squares on the hull, and at the same time enlarge the stroke features together, and then draw the outline.

Li Yuechen was in charge of filling the drawn outlines with white paint, and the printing of this font was considered to be over.

Li Yuechen, who was hung outside, admired the wisdom of the ancients while painting. Although this method is troublesome, a good craftsman can even express the charm of the font in this way.

This is enough to show that the accuracy of the human eye is actually far superior to that of ordinary cameras.

Although the coloring is simple, it must be ensured that the white paint will not be painted outside the outline. It is still troublesome to paint some fine details, which is a waste of time.

Fortunately, Li Yuechen has first-class body control, she holds a pen in her hand, and she won't tremble even when smearing very small places.

It took almost a whole day to paint the lettering on both sides of the hull.

Then when Li Yuechen went ashore on a small sampan, he couldn't help but look back.

Not to mention, at this moment, the ship looks a lot more powerful, or looks more powerful.

……

In June, the future pilots officially started the practical training of skydiving. Every day, a large number of black shadows can be seen unfolding in the sky, and then slowly falling in the camp area.

Many people from the nearby fishing village came to say that the dragon king had appeared and wanted to go in to worship, but none of them were stopped by the sentries outside, and they patiently told them that it was not the dragon king, but the soldiers inside were training.

What exactly is the training... Is this what you, a commoner, should ask?

After dismissing the people from the nearby fishing village, the sentinels all looked up enviously at the figure flashing in the sky.

It's a pity that they failed the vision test and couldn't become pilots. Apart from feeling sorry, they had no other remedies at all.

Of course, many soldiers are also thinking, should they quickly marry a woman and have a baby, maybe the child will have a chance to become a pilot in the future?

Contrary to the expectations of the soldiers, Li Yuechen recently went to the glass workshop every day after finishing the matter of printing the name on the hull.

Now the production of large pieces of glass is relatively smooth, while carpenters are also making frames.

Because it is an experimental greenhouse for the first time, the floor area is not bad, about [-] square meters, it can be used as a test site to try to grow vegetables this winter.

The cooperation between various departments was considered relatively smooth, and the craftsmen communicated with each other, trying to meet Li Yuechen's requirements with the shortest efficiency.

The children and apprentices they bring are also studying hard, striving to succeed quickly and making preparations for the expansion of the Academy of Engineering in the future.

Li Yuechen would come over to have a look these days when he was free, discussing various details with them, which invisibly improved their efficiency and speed a lot.

During the holidays, the children of the royal family and the students of the military academy would also come to help and learn some novel knowledge, which might be useful one day in the future.

What made Li Yuechen more gratified was that, under her education, the children of the royal family were all very polite and had no intention of bullying others.

The children of the royal family and the military students are relatively happy to get along with each other. Of course, happiness is happiness, and the sense of class gap still exists, and it will never be possible to truly fully integrate together.

But this is enough, Li Yuechen really never thought about allowing the children of the royal family to fully integrate with ordinary people. The royal family is the royal family, and there is still a sense of distance that should be there.

As long as they don't go out to bully men and women like dudes when they have nothing to do all day long, they know what is suffering among the people, and understand what responsibilities they bear as the royal family.

……

Not long after entering June, Li Yuechen received a secret letter from Lai Junchen.

It's been less than a month since the two of them left, how could there be news so soon?
Li Yuechen was surprised by this, the efficiency is already so high that it can be called terrifying, okay?

After opening the superstition with doubts, I discovered that I had misunderstood it. The letter only stated that the two had arrived in Fanyang and were ready to investigate.

Because Lu Zhenghao joined the princess' line, the sales of canned food gradually increased, and thus gained the attention of the family, so he was basically accompanied along the way.

However, Lai Junchen stated in the letter that he was a little concerned about one thing, that there were quite a few people surnamed Yuwen in the Lu clan, and hoped that His Highness would be more careful in advance, and if possible, it would be better to send someone to investigate.

After reading the letter, Li Yuechen gradually narrowed his eyes and began to think.

Those with the surname Yuwen...it's normal to have one or two occasionally in the Lu clan, but if there are a lot of them, it's really worth noting.

……

After coming to this era, Li Yuechen has been familiar with history books since childhood, and basically knows a lot about many historical things.

Speaking of the brilliant achievements of the Yuwen clan in history, Li Yuechen was deeply impressed.

She felt that the Yuwen clan was a bit like the Uchiha clan in Hokage, and it was really a family that could be called the whole clan.

Yuwen's genes are strong, and there are as many talents as a cow's hair. Whether it is appearance, talent or ability, they have left a great reputation in history.

It's a pity that Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, was jealous because he hung up too hard. As an emperor, it was difficult for him to tolerate the existence of such a powerful family in his empire.

As a result, the Yuwen clan was almost wiped out, and their former prestige ended in the Sui Dynasty.

Although the prestige of the Yuwen clan only leaves unverifiable legends, but after all, it is also a super rich family that once really existed, and its background must be profound.

If the Lu family cooperates with the remaining Yuwen family to do things, it will be a rather troublesome matter.

After all... the Yuwen clan is professional in killing the emperor!

Although Li Yuechen didn't think that the Yuwen family still had such abilities today, there was no way. The shadow of a famous tree had a brilliant record in the past. Facing such an opponent, it was difficult for people to underestimate the enemy.

Li Yuechen wished he had thought too much, maybe the current Yuwen clan just clings to Lu clan and wants to make a living?
Adhering to the principle of innocence, Li Yuechen didn't intend to make a judgment right now, but waited for them to send more clues.

Of course, the places that should be investigated still need to be checked carefully.

So I immediately wrote to Shangguan Wan'er, asking her to find out how many people are in the current Yuwen family, where they are located, what kind of business they are mainly engaged in, etc...

In a word, if she wants all the information about the Yuwen family now, it is best to have a genealogy that can trace the source.

Now the secret guards in charge of Shangguan Wan'er have almost spread all over the country, except for the Turkic and Western Regions, which are a bit far away, most of the states and counties have branches.

At the same time, Princess Xuancheng, the servant of the household department, has played with Li Yuechen since childhood, and she can check the roster from the household department at any time. It is not difficult to sit up.

The secret guard itself has the power to force other departments to cooperate, plus Princess Xuancheng... Even if the Minister of the Ministry of Finance wants to obstruct it, it is impossible.

……

After a period of experimentation, Li Yuechen finally confirmed that sea intestine powder can be used perfectly instead of chicken essence, and it has an extremely obvious effect in enhancing the freshness of dishes.

The most important thing is that there is no other seasoning added here, that is, after the sea sausage is picked up, the contents are taken out, then dried and ground into powder.It's that simple.

And to be honest, in terms of taste, it is much better than the industrial MSG after 1000 years.

After careful calculation for a period of time, Li Yuechen felt that he could supply some to the imperial palace and the Qianniuwei in the Eastern Capital first, and at the same time think about the breeding issue immediately.

After all, there is the palace, the army, and then there are the restaurants opened by Li Yuechen and the dignitaries. Only these two can turn them into cash.

So it is necessary to start the breeding experiment immediately, when the time comes, the price of the vegetables in the restaurant can be increased openly, and it can be sold to dignitaries.

The most important thing is that selling this item to foreign businessmen can also recover a lot of gold and silver from outside.

Many foreign businessmen have made a lot of real gold and silver from here with the luxury of pepper, and now Li Yuechen thinks that they can spit out more gold and silver with sea intestine powder!

Precious metals are very important resources for a country. Maybe people in this era are not aware of this, but it doesn't matter. Li Yuechen can wake them up in the future.

For the pepper thing, we should be able to get some seeds back in the future and plant some in Hainan or Lingnan. It should be possible to grow in tropical areas.

But sea sausage is different. Foreigners don't know what it is yet. Li Yuechen has a monopoly technology. If he can breed it on a large scale, he should be able to make a lot of money in the future!
