Crossing over reveals a waste's difficult journey home

After trying to figure out the key to Jiang Tuan's proposal, Jiang Qi had already been thinking about how to make things go forward better.

Of course, while thinking about his own problem, he did not forget the two people present.

"Master Yu, the waterwheel you are interested in was proposed by Jiang Tuan. If you have any questions, you can ask him."

When Yu Yuan heard that the emperor had given him convenience, his expression immediately became lively. With a little excitement, he asked, "Your Majesty, I have some questions that I would like to ask you. Is that possible?"

Being stared at by a handsome man with very passionate eyes, Jiang Tuan's face turned red.

He stammered, "You're welcome, you're welcome. It doesn't matter whether you ask for advice or not. We learn from each other, we learn from each other."

After getting the consent, Yu Yuan asked all his questions in one breath.

For example, how big should the waterwheel be? Why can the waterwheel turn and drive other things to turn? Can this thing be used on other things? And so on.

At the beginning, Jiang Tuan was admiring Yu Yuan's beauty while slowly answering the other party's questions.

But gradually, he became less leisurely, because the other party asked more and more questions, which made him sweat.

There was no other way. In the end, he could only tell the truth: "Master Yu, I don't really understand what you are asking."

"How could the prince not understand? Wasn't this made by the prince?"

"No, no, I didn't make this. I saw it somewhere else."

"Okay, I understand."

After finally dealing with Yu Yuan, Jiang Tuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After just a short period of time together, he discovered that if Yu Yuan were in modern times, he would probably be a very serious science man, or a scientific researcher.

When it comes to matters related to your profession, you must understand them inside and out, and never give up until you understand them.

It is true that he has studied science, but the purpose of studying it was to pass the exams, and he never thought about researching it in the future!

After being questioned for a while, he almost revealed all his past.

The main reason is that His Majesty probably didn't tell Yu Yuan about his origins. He didn't dare to say too much, fearing that the more he said, the less he would be able to explain.

Perhaps noticing Jiang Tuan's predicament, Jiang Qishan kindly let Yu Yuan leave, but before leaving, Yu Yuan still argued with Jiang Tuan.

"If I still have questions, can I go to the prince to get them answered?"

Although it is a very happy thing when a beautiful woman comes to see you, it would not be a good thing if she asked you about your past like she did this time.

Especially when he didn't know whether this man could be trusted, he decided to seek help from his biggest backer for his own safety.

"Your Majesty, can I or can't I?"

"can."

With the emperor's consent, Yu Yuan left happily, leaving Jiang Tuan alone and confused.

“Your Majesty, I don’t believe you didn’t see that Lord Yu almost took out all the little things I know. If you ask me any more, I don’t know how to answer.

And Your Majesty, aren't you afraid that I will be exposed? Aren't you afraid that Lord Yu will know my origins?"

"If you can't answer, work with Yu Shaofu to find a solution. Don't worry, he will keep the secret no matter how much you say."

Jiang Qi dared to say this because he understood his subjects.

Unlike other ministers, Yu Yuan became his minister not for the pursuit of fame and fortune, not for the belief that a scholar will die for his confidant, or for the sake of the people of the world.

Yu Yuan’s purpose was simple, which was to study the most advanced skills in the world.

From this point of view, Jiang Tuan still has a certain vision. In modern times, Yu Yuan is indeed a researcher who is obsessed with technology.

Research is a money-consuming process. If researchers don’t have the money themselves, they will naturally need investors.

He understood that if he wanted to learn all the skills in the world and innovate, it was not enough to rely on himself.

Someone needs to help him gather those skills, give him money, and support his research.

He also had a keen eye for talent. When Jiang Qigang was becoming successful, he immediately recognized him and followed him all the way until he took the position of Shaofu.

In fact, Yu Yuan is not very suitable for being an official. He is not interested in anything other than skills and is too lazy to deal with them.

Such a personality is very unwelcome in official circles.

However, Jiang Qi took a fancy to his character and appointed him as Shaofu.

To put it simply, Shaofu is the emperor's personal butler.

When it comes to his own property, even the most carefree emperor would find someone he can trust to manage it.

If you happen to meet someone who deceives his superiors and hides the truth from his subordinates, the emperor won’t even know that his house has been robbed.

Yu Yuan is obsessed with his skills and has no interest in other things. He is not really ignorant of the ways of the world, so Jiang Qi feels that it is safer to let him be the Shaofu.

Furthermore, Yu Yuan's son, Yu Chong, is a man who understands the ways of the world very well. With him helping the other party, Jiang Qi feels more at ease.

As for letting Yu Yuan know Jiang Tuan and contact Jiang Tuan, he had thought it over carefully.

The things that Jiang Tuan mentioned must be done by someone, and it is definitely not possible to use eunuchs alone.

Not only is it a waste of time, but it may not be done. At this time, we must rely on the highly skilled Yu Yuan.

Yu Yuan knew that he could learn skills from Jiang Tuan that he had never seen before, so he would use his life to protect Jiang Tuan without anyone telling him.

The only thing to pay attention to now is to not let Yu Yuan scare Jiang Tuan so much that he dares not meet him.

Since his biggest backer said that everything was fine, Jiang Tuan was very calm and put aside his worries and continued to do his own thing.

Even though he had just arrived in Daxia, he had already arranged a lot of work for himself.

Now he has two things at the top of his priorities. The first is making paper, and the second is preparing gifts for his two new juniors.

Papermaking is not something that can be completed in a short period of time, so he just needs to check on the progress every day.

So in the next two days, apart from painfully learning the complicated characters of Da Xia, he also prepared gifts for Jiang Huai and Jiang Yi.

Other things like oil pressing and sugar making cannot be done in the palace, and Jiang Qi will not let him out of the palace.

He wrote down the general approach and handed it to Jiang Qi, thus completing his task.

Whether it can be done and what it can be like depends on the wisdom of the people of Daxia.

Jiang Tuan already has an idea about the gifts for Jiang Huai and Jiang Yi.

Let’s talk about Jiang Huai first.

When they first met, Jiang Tuan gave him a refrigerator magnet. However, because the refrigerator magnet was in the shape of a dragon, Jiang Huai couldn't keep the gift, so it was taken away by Jiang Qi on the spot.

It is said that the refrigerator magnet has now been placed in a jade box and carefully preserved.

Jiang Tuan was shocked when he found out that the refrigerator magnet he brought was actually related to jade, okay?
