Father Qiu took Wen Xiuyi and King Fu to see the things he brought back from overseas.

Part of it was locked in the Qiu Mansion's warehouse and guarded by someone, while part of it was still on the ship.

On this trip, the silks, tea porcelain, etc. he brought out were all sold at good prices abroad. When he came back, he also bought a lot of good things from there, which can be said to be a fruitful harvest.

King Fu followed them into the warehouse and was really surprised by everything he saw.

"What is this? It's interesting to see it swinging around. What's written on it?" King Fu stood in front of a wooden box that was as tall as one person. The needle inside was still spinning, and there was a big pendulum swinging back and forth at the bottom. , and also made a clicking sound, which was very interesting to watch.

Wen Xiuyi took a look.

Oh, this is not a clock.

There are a lot of them in his daughter's space.

but……

Wen Xiuyi squinted his eyes and looked at the clock. With this, he could leave it to Zhuo Yi to dismantle, and they could build it themselves in the future.

Qiu's father explained to Prince Fu: "Your Majesty, this is called a big clock. It is used by those in the vassal country to keep track of time. It is very similar to our sundial. This is the best one selected by the common people from all, and is ready to be sent to the palace as a tribute to His Majesty. of."

The light in King Fu's eyes extinguished: "Ah, it's for Brother Huang."

He couldn't take it for the imperial brother, but he wanted it.

Father Qiu saw the fondness in his eyes and said with a smile: "There are a few short ones here. Would you like to see them, Your Majesty? They are also very beautiful."

King Fu's eyes immediately lit up again: "Let's go, let me see."

He pulled Father Qiu to leave, but Wen Xiuyi simply said: "Where are the seeds? I'll go and see for myself."

Father Qiu pointed him to a place and took King Fu to pick up the bell.

Wen Xiuyi arrived at the place pointed by Qiu's father and opened the box. There were a lot of bags inside, as well as lime powder for drying. This was all explained in Wen Yao's booklet before departure, in order to be more precise. It is best to bring these seeds back to prevent them from drifting at sea. The moisture will be too heavy and they will become moldy. Even if you bring them back, they will not be used.

He opened several kinds and looked at them. Many of them were tropical fruits, with durian cores inside. But he didn't know if they could be grown alive.

In addition, there are some rice seeds and wheat seeds. People outside also grow rice and wheat, but the climate in each place is different, so the yield is also different. The reason why Wen Xiuyi wants these is actually of no use. He just needs a reason. That's all, after all, the girl's space has everything.

He browsed it casually for a while and then felt that it was boring. These were not as good as the rice seeds he had cultivated.

But he still pretended to study there for a long time, until King Fu finished selecting what he liked, and his father Qiu called him to leave. Wen Xiuyi left with them with a look of "still unfinished".

In addition to these, what Father Qiu brought back most was the gems from outside, all kinds of gems, a dazzling array, and the people of the vassal country had a lot of these things.

There are also many exquisite glassware, colorful.

Father Qiu specially selected a few sets and gave them to King Fu and Wen Xiuyi. Unexpectedly, when they saw these things, the expressions on their faces were a little strange.

"Well, these things brought back by the poor people are not good enough? How about you two picking them up again?" Father Qiu was a little worried.

But King Fu waved his hand: "No, I just think these glasses are not as good as those made in Yaoyao's girl's glass factory. Look, there is reverie here."

"Ah?" Father Qiu was stunned. He had only been away for a year. What happened?

Wen Xiuyi also picked up one and looked at it. Although the workmanship was not as exquisite as Zhuo Yi's, it was still good. Being able to make such glassware in this era was already a very powerful technology.

As for Zhuoyi's glass factory, that girl cheated on them, so naturally they can't compare.

"The craftsmanship is still different." Wen Xiuyi made up for these poor foreigners.

Although King Fu was still a little disgusted, he still looked at it carefully. Indeed, the craftsmanship seemed to be a little different. Although it was not as transparent and clean as the girl's, it also had a different flavor of the feudal state.

"Thank you. Look, we've already taken a few of these things before they were sold out. How embarrassing is that? How about Boss Qiu, let's pay for it," said King Fu.

Father Qiu didn't bother to ask about the glass factory and refused repeatedly: "My lord, you are just trying to offend the common people. You can take whatever money you want, as long as the lord likes it."

"Hahaha, that's not necessary. But, didn't you say you got back a lot of gems? Are there any good ones? I will pay for them for you." King Fu said quietly.

Even Wen Xiuyi pricked up his ears and came over.

Father Qiu was stunned and immediately understood: "The gems of this vassal country are indeed better than those of our country. I have indeed bought a lot of fine gems. It is perfect for making jewelry for the princess and the princess." ”

King Fu nodded, that's what he meant.

"I just picked some for Yaoyao's dowry." Wen Xiuyi followed.

Father Qiu was surprised after a moment: "Yao Yao is engaged? Which young master is he from?"

How many things had he missed in this one year of absence?

King Fu puffed up his chest proudly: "Hey, he's from my family."

"Prince?" Father Qiu was surprised at first, but then he was relieved. He had met Prince Fu and Yaoyao several times before, and the prince was always by Yaoyao's side. He thought that the friendship between the two of them as childhood sweethearts has now been cultivated.

Thinking of this, he waved his hand: "Then why are you being polite to the common people? Brother Wen just picks, and the chosen one will be regarded as the common people adding makeup to Yaoyao."

It's not that he is rich, it's just that he really made a lot of money when he came back this time. The Qiu family is what they are today, it's really thanks to that girl, but it's just some gems, he can afford it.

"That's okay. I'll let the princess come and pick one later. We'll pay. Pay." Wen Xiuyi declined. No matter what Father Qiu said, he insisted on paying for it himself. Father Qiu had no choice but to pay. I can accept it, but I have already made up my mind to choose carefully and give some extra to Yaoyao when the time comes.

After dinner in the evening, Qiu's father called Xie Anyi to sleep at his place because he missed his grandson.

When Xie Anyi came to see his friends again the next day, he had another thousand taels of silver notes with him. When he asked, his grandfather gave them to him.

But the bank note was not for nothing. Father Qiu asked him many things, mainly about what happened to several families after he went to sea. He didn't know what happened to him. He was shocked when he heard it. Although he had made a lot of money from his trip to sea. He made a lot of money, but he also missed the opportunity to make a fortune with Wenyao and the others.

All I can say is, it's a pity.

However, he soon felt relieved. There was no way to make all the money, and there would always be gains and losses. The fate of their family had now determined the direction. From now on, he could just focus on this path.

As for Annan's business, he believed in his daughter, who was better at doing business than her elder brother.

When he thought of this, Father Qiu couldn't help but think of the years when his daughter was wasted in the Xie family. He felt really regretful. These scholars, especially these pretentious scholars, are really hypocritical.

While pretending to be noble and despising this yellow and white thing, at the same time trying to take advantage of everything, it is really hypocritical.
