Chapter two hundred and eighty nine strange wood wind

Wang Lang asked: "How is the construction of the harbor and shipyard?"

Mu Feng replied: "The port has been built and the shipyard has been put into use. Now we have tried to build the ship according to the drawings. It is estimated that in another half a year, the first ship will be launched. I am coming back this time to ask Your Majesty to build a new city at the harbor. I saw that there are a large number of fish in the ocean. If we build a city there, we can get more food by fishing in the sea. I wonder if Your Majesty can agree to this request."

"Yes, this is a good thing. After the north has captured enough people, I will give priority to those people to the harbor." Wang Lang said with a smile.

When Mu Feng heard this, he bowed and said, "Your Majesty is wise!"

Wang Lang nodded and said, "This first ship is used for testing. This fresh wood is not suitable for shipbuilding. If there is no problem after the test, you can send someone back to transport the wood that has been dry for several years to the harbor. After the ship is built, there is no need to stay there. Just leave it to your subordinates for the responsibility, so that you can also come back and reunite with your family."

"Thank you, your Majesty, but I still have a request." Wu Feng said respectfully.

"Oh, let's see what you have to ask for." Wang Lang looked at Rufeng with some interest.

"Your Majesty, if the ship is built successfully, I want to go out to sea to see it. After staying at the sea for so long, I have always wanted to know what is going on the sea. Every time I stand by the sea, I feel that I am extremely small. I want to go outside to see how vast the world is." While Mu Feng said this, his eyes were full of yearning.

Wang Lang pondered for a while, and looked at Mu Feng and said slowly: "The sea is extremely dangerous. The stranded ship on the beach is the best example. The dinosaurs' sailing technology is much more mature than ours. Even so, they will have shipwrecks. With our current navigation ability, it is not enough to conduct ocean navigation. What's more, your current responsibility does not allow you to do such dangerous things. Leave the things to explore the world to others. When our navigation ability is safe enough in the future, it is not too late to consider this matter. I actually want to see what the overseas world is like, but you must know that for Xia Kingdom now, the most important thing is to fully develop the overall strength of Xia Kingdom. If those dinosaurs are full of malicious intentions towards me, then it will be very dangerous if I haven't set it on. If we lose, the entire human race will perish and we will not be allowed to slack off."

Mu Feng sighed and said, "Your Majesty, I understand. I will do my best to lead the weapons developed by the Ministry of Works and kill all the enemies that will be invaded."

After the two continued to chat for a while, Wang Lang looked at the sky and said, "It's getting late, so I won't keep you for a long time. You should also get together with your family when you come back this time."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I'm leaving." Mu Feng retreated.

After Mu Feng left Wang Lang's place, he planned to buy some wine and meat from the trading station. Before he could enter the trading station, he was attracted by the golden things placed on the shelves outside the door.

Calling the salesperson, Mu Feng asked, "What is this?"

The people of Yancheng know most of the great figures in the Xia Kingdom, especially state-owned shops such as trading stations. The guy recognized Mu Feng at a glance and hurriedly stepped forward and introduced: "Shangshu Mu, this thing is called a hairpin. It is said that it was invented by His Majesty. It is very beautiful."

"Oh, this thing has its own uses."

"Shangshu Mu, you have been out of town for a while. It is normal for you to know this. Didn't you notice that the women in Yancheng are different from before?" The salesperson mysteriously pointed to the pedestrians coming and going on the street.

Mu Feng looked along his finger in confusion. Sure enough, when he saw the woman in Yancheng, there were some changes. Not only was she much cleaner than before he left, but the biggest change was her hairstyle. Almost every woman had one or two yellow hairpins on her head. At this time, he also recalled that when he returned home, it seemed that her wife was wearing this thing on her head.

"Is this hairpin used by women to insert it into their hair for decoration?" Mu Feng asked.

The salesperson nodded and said, "As Mu Shangshu said, this hairpin was originally an ornament made by His Majesty for the queen. When the women in Yancheng saw the queen bringing this thing, they gradually imitated it. This situation has been more than half a year. Don't you say that such a woman looks more attractive than before. Why didn't Mu Shangshu buy one for Mrs. Zun? These are new styles. I believe Mrs. Zun must like it very much."

Mu Feng picked up a hairpin with a hairpin with a head of a butterfly, put it in his hand and weighed it, and said in his mind: "It's actually made of bronze."

Then he asked, "How much does this hairpin cost to copper coins."

"Mu Shangshu has a good eye. This hairpin is the most exquisite among these jewelry. It only takes twenty copper coins." The salesperson smiled.

Mu Feng was shocked when he heard this, "How come twenty copper coins are so expensive? I don't even have ten copper coins for this thing."

Thinking that twenty copper coins were enough for a family of three to buy enough food for ten days, and a useless decoration, he was really shocked.

"Shu Mu, you can't say that. Although this hairpin does not have the copper content in copper coins, you can see how beautiful the pattern on it looks. It's not as good as copper coins." The salesperson explained.

Mu Feng frowned, looked at the women passing by here from time to time, gritted his teeth, took out twenty copper coins from his waist pocket, and bought the hairpin.

The salesperson took the copper coin with a smile, carefully handed the hairpin to Mu Feng, and said, "Shangshu Mu see what else do you need?"

"I don't need anything else. Give me a jar of red flame wine and three pounds of meat." Mu Feng said slowly.

"Wait a minute." After the salesperson finished speaking, he quickly walked into the house and walked out with the wine and meat in a short while.

But when Mu Feng took the piece of meat, he couldn't help but be stunned, "Why is this meat so cold?"

"This is frozen meat, very fresh," the salesperson explained.

"Ice? What is it?" Mu Feng asked.

Thinking that Mu Feng had been away for almost a year, the salesperson reacted and hurriedly ran into the house, took out an ice cube, handed it to Mu Feng, and said, "Shangshu Mu, this is ice cube."

Mu Feng looked at the cool transparent object in his hand and was very surprised. He could not have imagined that there was such a magical thing in this world.

“Where did this thing come from?”

"This is the ice cube made by Your Majesty with Nitrogen. It's very magical. We originally thought it was a miracle, but later we realized that it was not a miracle. After everyone knew the method, they could make ice. There are now huge ice bins at the trading station to preserve meat." The salesperson explained.
