Ma'am, your vest fell off again

Chapter 257 The dream is to be a cook
Liufeng looked at Fu Xuanrong blankly, "Where do you want to go?"

"Yeah, home means home." She laughed and continued, "What are you going to do in the future? Be a killer?"

"I don't like killing people."

"If so what do you like?"

Liu Feng seemed a little shy, blushing for a long time but didn't have the nerve to say it, "I, I..."

"What's so embarrassing about it, tell me what you like."

"I like cooking."

"Pfft." A group of children behind were amused by these words and laughed.A man actually said that he likes to cook. Doesn't he know the reason why a gentleman stays away from the kitchen?
Fu Xuanrong glanced at the group of booing children, and quickly shut them up.

"There is nothing wrong with cooking. If you master this cooking skill, you can open a restaurant or something in the future, and you can make a lot of money in a day."

Liu Feng's eyes were bright, "Really?"

"Yes, if you really want to learn, I will ask Uncle Chen to find a master who is proficient in teaching you."

"This, will this be too much trouble for the suzerain?"

"It's nothing to worry about. When I took you up the mountain, I told you that you can learn from all walks of life, as long as you are interested in it. Don't say you like cooking, even if you like rouge and gouache, I can satisfy you." 360 All right, every line of work is the top pick, there is no distinction between high and low occupations, liking is the most important thing.

Liu Feng's moved eyes were a little red, "Thank you suzerain, I will study hard!"

"Well, good boy, continue to practice swords. As a person in the Jianghu, it is also a good thing to learn more martial arts to protect yourself."

"it is good!"

Liufeng happily returned to the crowd, Fu Xuanrong stood up, turned her head and smiled slightly at Li Junhao, "How about it, aren't the children cute?"

Li Junhao didn't know if he was dazzled by the smile, and he said after a while, "Well, if you want, we can have one too."

"..." The corner of Fu Xuanrong's mouth froze, and she quickly changed the subject, "Well, I heard from Uncle Chen that there are many Ganoderma lucidum growing on the hillside behind, but it's a pity that no one picks them on weekdays. It's soaked, let's pick it off."

"Why do you need Ganoderma lucidum?"

"Stupid, of course it is used to sell money. Don't the rich and powerful in the capital city like this thing the most? After the silver is exchanged, it will be sent to the mountain. It can add several new clothes to the children."

"Then let's go." The left and right are also idle, so it's good to find something to do.

Fu Xuanrong didn't know where to find a bamboo basket, so she insisted on forcing Li Junhao to carry it, and the two of them shuttled around the top of the mountain with lightness kung fu.

"Your lightness kungfu seems to have improved a lot." In the past, Fu Xuanrong was able to fly up and down walls at most, but now she can rise and fall at will in the valley, and her clothes are flying like a piece of light feathers.

"That's right, I have good comprehension, and I have been practicing hard these days, so of course I will improve." In fact, I still have to thank the system in the end. If it hadn't rewarded the proficiency of Qinggong, how could I pretend to be so obsessed.

Li Junhao didn't doubt her words too much, and picked the ganoderma lucidum seriously on the rock, "What are your plans about the iron caster?"

"What plans can I have? Since the incident in Nanguang Town last time, although the emperor didn't say anything, he must have a grudge against me in his heart. I'm afraid I won't be able to intervene in the court."

"Well, in fact, that old Liu said something quite right."

Fu Xuanrong was puzzled, "What are you talking about?"

"The imperial court is indeed suppressing private cast iron masters." Since the artillery can't be controlled, it can only do everything possible to destroy it, and try to keep all the right to use it in the imperial court's hands, so as to ensure the peace of Beiao.

"Well, if you don't tell me, I would have guessed it. In recent years, although our Beiao country is safe and peaceful, the surrounding small countries are not doing nothing. We have worked hard to make artillery. How can they sit and wait for death? It is estimated that it will not be a few years. Kyushu It’s time to change inside.”

Li Junhao's eyes darkened, "I can't think about such a long-term matter. Do you remember that I mentioned to you a few days ago that Shaoqing's Northwest Army camp suffered heavy casualties?"

"Remember, I heard that the enemy country moved out seven artillery pieces, but our people put together only four pieces."

"That's right. Although Bei Ao's army is stronger than them, the wall of blood made of human flesh can't stop the artillery attack at all. If this continues, something serious may happen."

"The emperor hasn't sent reinforcements there yet?"

"Sent, and three more cannons were transported, but this is already the limit that the court can produce."

Fu Xuanrong frowned, "It is really true to live in sorrow and die in peace."

In the past few years, Bei Ao's soldiers were strong, and they didn't pay much attention to the nearby small countries. They even thought that they were ants who couldn't stand on the stage. They came to blockade the national line and never traded with outsiders.

Unexpectedly, in just a few years, the situation has undergone a major reversal.

"It's useless to say these things now, I'm afraid Shaoqing won't be able to hold on anymore."

"It's difficult. If you want to win, you can only send more people to make artillery, but this kind of thing requires a lot of gunpowder, and the production and collection of gunpowder are very time-consuming and labor-intensive. Wait until the things are ready before transporting them to the battlefield. , I'm afraid the day lily is cold."

After all, this place is not modern, and many things have to be explored step by step by people. Things like iron have to be excavated from the ground and then tempered, so the finished artillery is even more precious.

"Exactly, so I thought, since I can't fight, I can only make a fuss about defense."

"Defense? You mean steel armor?"

"Not bad." In all countries, apart from artillery, steel armor is the rarest thing.

The material it needs is easier to obtain than iron, and it doesn't require such a troublesome tempering and manufacturing process, but this thing has a serious disadvantage, that is, once it hits a cannon, it will burn hot even if it is not blown up. The people inside will be smothered to death in an instant.

Fu Xuanrong threw a Ganoderma lucidum on hand into the bamboo basket, thought for a while before saying: "You mentioned it this way, I have an idea, but I don't know if it's feasible."

"what idea?"

"I can't explain it now, anyway, the Ganoderma lucidum is almost collected, let's go back and find Lao Liu first."

"it is good."

The two went up the mountain with bamboo baskets on their backs, and when they rushed to the yard, they found that Lao Liu was burning iron with a group of hairy children.

This mountain is like spring all the year round, but Fu Xuanrong's face was covered with heat as soon as she stepped in, and the Ganoderma lucidum was almost ripe.

"Old Liu, I will teach you later, I have something to do with you."

Lao Liu put down his work, "What's the matter?"

"I'm going to ask you to make a batch of steel armor."

"What? Steel armor? Isn't that something that people in the court can make? What do you want me to do?"

"When did those people create useful things other than mixing with the emperor's food, and the batch of steel armor I want is different from ordinary ones."
