Dressed as a family of cannon fodder, the villain brother is busy opening up wasteland

The emperor looked at her and said, "Do you know why I came to you today?"

Wen Yao lowered her head and answered obediently: "My daughter can probably guess it."

The emperor leaned aside and said, "Let's talk about it."

Wen Yao lowered his head, rolled his eyes, and then pretended to take something from his sleeve. In fact, he took out a booklet from the space, presented it to the emperor respectfully, and then said: "Your Majesty, in fact, there is nothing like steel and iron. Strangely, anything that can be made of iron can be made of steel. Here are some items that I have compiled that are suitable for replacing iron with steel. I don’t know when I will come back from my trip to the north, so I wrote them here. "

Wen Yao has been thinking about this since she made up her mind to go to the north. The emperor doesn't look for her, but it doesn't mean that she can't be prepared.

And if she goes to the north, the emperor may not let her go because of the steelmaking, but if she prepares everything, the emperor will have no reason to keep her.

Therefore, Wen Yao combined the things of this era and compiled this booklet that can replace iron with steel. It has everything from daily necessities to weapons. The emperor only needs to follow it.

The emperor opened the book, and his eyes became brighter and brighter the more he looked at it.

"I didn't expect that steel could be used in so many places. I thought it could only be used as weapons." The emperor couldn't believe that this thing could also be used as a pot.

Yes, isn’t the pot also made of iron? The emperor's situation suddenly opened up, and his eyes were so bright that he seemed to have seen a lot of money waving to him.

"Okay, okay." The emperor said several times in a row.

Wen Yao breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Your Majesty, even if my daughter is not in the capital, it will definitely be no problem to make these things with Uncle Zhuo's craftsmanship. However, your Majesty still has to decide how to use the steel."

Wen Yao's compliments made the emperor very happy. Moreover, even if steel has many uses, the emperor would not easily use it to make these things. The emperor naturally understands the principle that things are rare and valuable, and he wants to use these steels as Annan It’s the only one, so naturally it won’t be obtained casually.

Make a pot? What if the enemy country secretly bought it from Annan? What if they also learn to make steel? That's not shooting yourself in the foot.

Before Annan was completely powerful, the emperor would not do such risky things.

Therefore, no matter how useful it is, at first, these steels can only appear in Annan as weapons.

Leaving Wen Yao behind and questioning Wen Yao was just to test the girl's attitude. After all, it was this girl who made steel. Zhuo Yi, to put it bluntly, is just a person who follows the book. The real method of steel making is in this girl's head. Here.

Wenyao is a walking formula.

The emperor was suspicious, and so was he. However, the actions of the father and daughter had dispelled most of the emperor's doubts. No matter what the three of them did, even if they seemed unrelated, they were really for Annan and the people. Consider it to benefit the people.

He can only win over such talents, but he cannot break their hearts.

The best way to win people over is benefits.

Thinking of this, the emperor directly put the book away, looked at Wen Yao, and asked: "Girl, your achievements are not much compared to your father's. What reward do you want?"

"Ah?" Wen Yao raised her head and looked at the emperor with a cute look on her face: "What a reward."

The emperor was amused by her, and his eyes softened, just like the eyes of an elder looking at a junior, and nodded: "Well, reward, what do you want? As long as I can give it, just ask."

Wen Yao was already thinking about the war between heaven and man. Did the emperor really give him a favor? Or are you trying to trick her? If she really wants something, will the emperor be unhappy? If not, will the emperor feel that she looks down on him?

If I had known this, I would have discussed it with Li Yi first.

The little expression on Wen Yao's face changed for a while, which made the emperor look a little funny and asked: "What? Can't think of it?"

Wen Yao nodded: "Well, I don't know what I want."

The emperor didn't ask any more questions and waved his hand: "In that case, I will consider it myself and reward you."

When Wen Yao heard this, she felt a little regretful. She would have spoken out if she had known earlier. It was okay to ask for money. The emperor would give it himself. What if he gave him something of no use?

The conversation changed and the emperor asked: "When is Wen Changbo going to set off?"

Wen Yao answered honestly: "Your Majesty, I need to prepare some things in the next two days. In addition, my father is going to bring a batch of potatoes and sweet potatoes to the north. It may take a few days."

Everything has been handed over to the household department, but it seems to be a bit troublesome to get it out.

The emperor nodded. It is true that Wen Xiuyi is going to improve the food problem in the north. These two new grains do not matter the land or the climate, but you can go to the north to try them.

Thinking of this, the emperor said directly: "I will issue an order soon and ask the Ministry of Household Affairs to cooperate with Wen Changbo. Wen Changbo can bring as much as he wants, as long as it does not affect the promotion of new grains."

The problems in the north need to be solved, but the problems in other parts of Annan need to be solved even more.

Wen Yao stood up and saluted: "I would like to thank Your Majesty on behalf of my father."

"Well, let's go when you're ready. I'm waiting for good news about you and your daughter in the capital. In addition, I will also send someone to look after Wenchangbo's mansion." The emperor said.

Wen Yao knelt down directly this time and said thank you: "Thank you, Your Majesty. Originally, I was worried that I and my father would go to the north, leaving my little brother alone at home. Your Majesty is the emperor, and he keeps his word. Your Majesty will take care of you. The woman is relieved."

This flattery made the emperor happy.

Even if he doesn't care, who can bully Wenchang Bo Mansion with his merciless younger brother here.

The emperor asked again: "I heard that your brother is very knowledgeable and smart?"

Wen Yao smiled sheepishly and said modestly, "It's just a compliment, sir."

The emperor didn't say anything, just nodded lightly.

Then the queen came back, and Wen Yao and Nanny Zeng left the palace.

As soon as they left, the emperor asked the queen what reward he should give Wen Yao.

Now Wen Changbo has been granted the title of earl. When Wen Xiu Yi solves the problem in the north, the title can still rise. Originally, the emperor was planning to find a time to ask Wen Xiu Yi, who of his two sons he planned to make the heir apparent. , now it seems that there is no rush now.

It's just that the emperor felt bad if he didn't reward this girl for such a great contribution.

The queen thought for a while and said directly: "Since the two of us don't know who to make the crown prince, it's better to make this girl a princess first."

The emperor hesitated: "Only those above the princes can be granted the title of princess. Isn't it inappropriate?"

The queen smiled: "Your Majesty is worried about the objections of the ministers in the court?"

The emperor nodded.

The Queen then said: "Then in your Majesty's eyes, is the steel made by this girl Wenyao worth it for Your Majesty to break these rules? Moreover, it will be a matter of time for Wenchang Bo to be promoted to Marquis of Wenchang, so why should Your Majesty worry about it?" Beyond the rules.”
