The powerful princess arrives with a space warehouse

Ouyang Yunyao paused, then asked again, "General, how many shells can your cannon fire in succession?"

General William was already taken aback by her question, and when she continued to ask, he was so stunned that he froze on the spot.

What kind of woman is she? A princess who not only speaks their Lopa language fluently, but also asks such professional questions about artillery.

Even Prince Joliv and Brian, standing to the side, looked at Princess Jing with surprise. They only thought that Princess Jing had a talent for languages ​​and that she and her brother were good at doing business, but they did not expect that she was also proficient in military matters.

After a long while, General William finally came to his senses, calmed himself down, and said to Ouyang Yunyao:

"Our cannons can fire more than 600 feet at the farthest point, and can fire twice in succession."

Ouyang Yunyao's eyes darted around. Six hundred feet was roughly a range of two hundred meters. And in her opinion, the ability to fire twice in succession was quite advanced.

So she gave Joliff and his men a thumbs up and exclaimed sincerely, "That cannon is great!"

She wasn't just being polite; she genuinely felt that being able to build such artillery in this era was already quite advanced.

She turned and told Chu Chenjing and Battalion Commander Lei the artillery range and number of shots she had learned from William.

Battalion Commander Lei, who was already staring wide-eyed at the cannon with great curiosity, touched the cannon body with even more affection after hearing Ouyang Yunyao's explanation, his eyes full of envy.

The Jingyong Army soldiers behind them were also full of curiosity about the cannon. They craned their necks and stared at it intently, their eyes also showing envy.

Only two soldiers from the Jingyong Army, who had accompanied Prince Jing to Linhai City to suppress the pirates, showed little surprise upon seeing the homemade cannon and hearing Princess Jing explain its range.

They had personally witnessed Princess Jing using a powerful rocket launcher to deal with pirates. Princess Jing, wielding only that magical rocket launcher, was able to unleash a continuous bombardment on the distant pirates; its power was simply earth-shattering.

Moreover, those shells weren't very big, and they were many times better than this thing.

One of the soldiers said to the others with considerable pride, "This cannon is nowhere near as good as the rocket launcher that Princess Jing used to fight pirates, which I told you about before!"

Another soldier, his eyes gleaming, recalled the scene and said excitedly:

"He's right! Prince Han used one of those things back then. He mounted it on the crenellations of the city wall and fired it at the pirate ship in the distance. The fireballs flew towards the pirates on the ship, and with a 'boom,' the pirates on the ship were instantly blown away!"

Battalion Commander Lei was touching the cannon, immersed in excitement. Although he often led his soldiers in training with submachine guns, grenades, and other novel weapons, he had never seen a cannon before, let alone the rocket launcher the soldiers were talking about.

He had heard from soldiers who had fought in the war about the rocket launcher that could shoot down pirates, but he had never seen it with his own eyes and was always skeptical, thinking that what the soldiers said was a bit exaggerated.

At that moment, he heard the soldiers talking about that weapon in front of Prince Jing and Princess Jing. He couldn't help but turn to look at Ouyang Yunyao and asked urgently:

"Princess Consort Jing, is what they said true?"

Ouyang Yunyao smiled and said, "They're right! Our shells are indeed much better than these cannons." She spoke so frankly, not at all afraid that the Luoba people would hear her.

Because the Loba people had no idea what they were talking about, and thought they were just envying their own cannons.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, may I have the opportunity to see it for myself?" Battalion Commander Lei looked at the two of them with expectant eyes.

Seeing his anxious expression, Chu Chenjing and Ouyang Yunyao exchanged a smile, and Chu Chenjing nodded:

"When we return this time, I will show you our cannons."

Today they saw the warships and cannons of the Luoba Continent. Chu Chenjing felt it was time to let his soldiers see the new weapons, and at the same time, he should find a way to build his own cannons.

"Your Highness, is what you're saying true?" Battalion Commander Lei asked, unable to contain his curiosity.

Chu Chenjing raised an eyebrow and glared at him. "When have I ever lied to you?"

Just then, Chu Feng hurried over and reported, "Your Highness, Your Highness, their goods have all been unloaded."

"Okay." Chu Chenjing nodded in agreement.

Ouyang Yunyao said to Prince Jolif and his men in Lopa: "Your Highness, all your goods have been unloaded."

"Finished unloading?" Upon hearing this, Joliv took out his pocket watch from his pocket and looked at it, then said, "Your Highness Prince Jing, Princess Jing, it's getting late, we should go have lunch."

Ouyang Yunyao immediately translated Qiao Lifu's words to Chu Chenjing, Battalion Commander Lei, Chu Feng, and their soldiers.

Chu Chenjing checked the time and then nodded to Qiao Lifu: "Then let's go have our meal first."

After Ouyang Yunyao translated, Jolief instructed one of his soldiers to inform Henry and Charles to invite all the guests from the Western Chu Kingdom to the reception room on the second floor.

……

Ouyang Yunyao was taken aback when she went up to the second floor. The space on the second floor was unusually spacious, about half the size of a large ship, with many rooms arranged in a staggered pattern on both sides of the corridor.

Jolief and his companions led them to the reception hall, which had been set up as a dining room with five large round tables that could accommodate sixty people.

The furnishings here are exquisite and sophisticated, with carved wooden chairs paired with brocade tablecloths and gilded candlesticks, exuding a Western style throughout.

Several paintings hung on the wainscoting of the hall. Ouyang Yunyao's eyes suddenly lit up, and she subconsciously walked closer to take a look. Good heavens! These paintings were almost identical to the Western oil paintings she had seen in her previous life.

Just as she was about to ask a question, Brian, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but speak up and introduce the paintings to Ouyang Yunyao.

Brian was a painter, and two of the paintings hanging on the wall were his masterpieces. Seeing that Princess Jing was very interested, he took the initiative to talk about them.

Listening to Brian's introduction, Ouyang Yunyao became even more certain that their paintings were almost identical to those Western oil paintings seen in later generations.

So she smiled and tentatively asked, "Earl Brian, did you use vegetable oil-based paints for these paintings? Is the canvas linen?"

Ouyang Yunyao addressed him as Earl at this time, having only learned that the prince's cousin was an earl when she got off the plane.

Brian was stunned upon hearing this, his eyes filled with surprise, and he nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes! Princess Consort Jing, how did you know?"
