Chapter 1027 - Chapter 1027 Good Stuff

Chapter 1027: Good Stuff Chapter 1027: Good Stuff Editor: Atlas Studios Mu Yangling’s actions confirmed the legend and stunned everyone present.

From then on, Princess Consort Rong became a legend in Guangdong.

The most direct impact was that when Mu Yangling brought the children to the streets again, the street vendors would look at them with reverence and give them free food.

Surprised by this, Mu Yangling asked Qi Haoran, “When I first came to Guangzhou, I already showed off my skills and the soldiers in your navy all saw it.

Why is everyone still so surprised?” Hadn’t the legend of her having divine strength spread two years ago?

With his back facing Mu Yangling, Qi Haoran said gloomily, “They didn’t believe it and thought that the navy guys who participated in the battle were just trying to please you and were spouting nonsense.

When these rumors spread outside, everyone naturally treated it as a joke.” Mu Yangling sighed.

“From this, it can be seen that rumors should still be spread by women.

Look at how many people there were in the plum garden.

I’ve only been back for less than ten days, and now even the street vendors believe it.” Seeing that Qi Haoran was unhappy, she leaned on his shoulder and asked, “What’s wrong?” “The cannon that was just built in the factory was taken to the deserted island to be tested.

After just one shot, the cannon cracked and almost exploded.

My efforts over the past six months were all in vain.

The craftsman said that the cannon was not strong enough to withstand the power and had to be modified.” Qi Haoran had high hopes for this cannon and invested a lot in it, but it still failed.

The excitement he’d had had turned into depression.

However, Mu Yangling felt that it was not bad considering they started with no knowledge of the technique or the blueprints.

They had to rely on themselves to dismantle the two cannons and study them.

Yet in just half a year, they had built one cannon.

Even if they only fired the cannon once, it should be considered a success.

Mu Yangling comforted him.

Qi Haoran held her hand and said, “We still have to conduct the research in private.

The Imperial Court definitely won’t be willing to fork out so much money only to have the cannons blow up.

You don’t know, but we’ve spent 50,000 taels of silver researching the cannon to date.

That’s enough money for us to buy a cannon from the west, with change to spare.” “How is this the same?

What we’ve developed is technology.

With technology and craftsmen, we can have an endless supply of cannons.

However, if we use that money to buy cannons, we’d get just one cannon.

Moreover, whether we get to buy it or not depends on the other party’s mood, subjecting us to others’ control.” Seeing that he was still frowning, Mu Yangling asked, “Are you out of money?

We received decent profits from the grain store last year.

Shall I transfer some money to you?” Qi Haoran shook his head.

“This factory is under the royal family’s name.

With Big Brother’s private treasury funding it, we don’t lack money.

I was wondering if I should send someone to secretly learn steel forging techniques in the west.

I’ve just heard that the west has just improved their cannons a little further.

The power of the cannon we just made isn’t as strong as their new model, but somehow it still shattered the cannon’s body upon firing.

Ultimately, it’s because our steel forging technique is inferior to the west.” Mu Yangling blinked and asked, “The key isaEUR”are you able to send apprentices to their steel mill?” “I can’t.

So I wonder if I can directly hire a master or apprentice from their steel mills.

Wealth tempts people.

Perhaps there might be people who are willing to leave their hometowns and come to Great Qi?” Mu Yangling raised both arms in agreement.

“I’ll pay for it.

As long as we can invite their master craftsman over, I’ll pay any price.

Once he comes over, we’ll let our craftsman learn all his skills.” “You’re too prodigal.

Let Big Brother pay for this.

We still have to leave our money to our daughter.” “Your daughter has yet to come into existence.

I’ve seen so many doctors and they all say that it depends on fate.” Mu Yangling said a little dejectedly, “I’m clearly very healthy.

I wonder why I just can’t conceive.” Mu Yangling glanced suspiciously at Qi Haoran’s lower body.

Qi Haoran blushed and pressed Mu Yangling down, then said fiercely, “What nonsense are you thinking about?” “Nothing.” Mu Yangling shook her head honestly.

“I wasn’t thinking about anything.

You misunderstood.” Would Qi Haoran believe it?

Of course not.

With his actions, he proved to Mu Yangling that what was going on in her mind wasn’t true.

After experiencing a setback, although the atmosphere at the cannon factory was a little depressed, everyone still perked up and continued to work hard.

After Qi Haoran gave them a pep talk, they were even more energetic.

Qi Haoran began to entrust the sea merchants in the west to help find master craftsmen who could make cannons or forge steel.

The reason why he didn’t go to the Westerners in Great Qi was because he did not trust them.

This was the first time those sea merchants received a mission from Qi Haoran.

In the past, only the Zhou family was lucky enough to receive a mission from Prince Rong.

Hence, they were very excited and expressed that they would do their best to complete the mission.

Meanwhile, far away in the west, Zhou De and the others managed to truly anger Andre and the other foreign merchants.

The clocks and glass products that Mu Yangling asked them to bring to the west, and even the Great Qi music box that Little Bear and the others had asked the sea merchants to bring there, had set off a trend in the Western countries.

These had become the most popular items in the Western market after silk, tea leaves, and porcelain.

Meanwhile, Zhou De began to collect the products produced by the western countries, especially some crop seeds.

Regardless of whether he knew them or not, he gathered all of them and brought them onto the ship.

If he could note down the planting and eating methods, he would do so; even if not, he would just bring them back first.

At the same time, he began to pay attention to the news of the various countries.

Because of this, he returned later than many people.

He could only hand over the seeds he had collected to the sea merchants on other ships and ask them to bring them back to the Prince’s estate.

He wasn’t sure about when he was going to return, and also, he remembered that the Princess Consort seemed to value crops very much.

Thus, he asked the sea merchants to pay attention to whether there were any crops they didn’t recognize at the supply station when they returned and, if there were any, bring some back for the Princess Consort.

These sea merchants were just pondering how to please the Prince’s estate.

When they received such a request, they naturally gladly accepted it.

Once they docked, other than searching for precious goods like gems and spices, they also helped to find crops that they had never seen before.

These people set off in the first month of the lunar year, and the return trip only took them three months and five days.

Therefore, when they returned to Guangzhou, it was the busiest time for spring plowing and spring was in its full bloom.

A carriage of seeds was transported into the Prince’s estate.

Mu Yangling squatted on the ground and watched curiously.

At this moment, the crop yield of the European countries was not as high as that of Great Qi.

The only thing she cared about the most were the seeds of various crops.

As for high-yielding crops like corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes, they had long spread to Great Qi, so there was nothing she needed to pay special attention to.

Hence, she got Zhou De to cast a wide net and simply bring back any good crops he saw.

Hence, this carriage of seeds really had everything.

Onions and tomatoes.

What made Mu Yangling’s eyes light up was the sugarcane in a sack.

As it had been quite some time, the sugarcane was already a little dry and sour.

However, Mu Yangling held it and laughed loudly.

“How could I have forgotten about this treasure?” Spring asked curiously, “Your Highness, what is this?” “This is good stuff.” Mu Yangling got up, and her vision darkened.

Seeing her body sway, Spring supported her in a panic and exclaimed, “Your Highness, what’s wrong?” Mu Yangling closed her eyes and waved her hand.

“I’m fine.

I justaEUR| just felt dizzy for a moment.” Spring and Summer quickly helped her into the house carefully.

Seeing that Mu Yangling’s face was a little pale, they covered her stomach with a blanket and sent someone to look for Imperial Physician Wang.

“Didn’t Imperial Physician Wang just take her pulse half a month ago?

Is there anything wrong?” “I’m just a little anemic.” As Mu Yangling had awareness of her body, she said, “I squatted for too long just now and got up too quickly.” “But you’ve always been in good health.

How can you be anemic?” Winter couldn’t help but ask.

Mu Yangling touched her stomach and had a faint guess in her heart.

Spring also looked at her stomach with shining eyes.

Imperial Physician Wang could not give a definite answer to this, giving a sufficient reason.

“Your pulse is slippery, but it’s not obvious.

I can only say that it will take another half a month to be confirmed.” The corners of Mu Yangling’s mouth twitched as she asked, “So long?” Imperial Physician Wang was also very straightforward about this.

“That’s because even if you’re pregnant, you must be very early into your pregnancyaEUR”anywhere from five to 15 days.

Even if you are pregnant, it’s not certain if the fetus can adapt to your uterus and stay.

There’s also a 50% chance your slippery pulse is a result of your recent bad mood.”
