Chapter 69 Don’t Be the Spare Cousin of a Time-Traveling Girl 15

The wife that Linjiang Hou and his wife chose for Yunling was Miss Chen. The Chen family was not a family of high-ranking officials or dignitaries, but Old Master Chen was a contemporary scholar with a profound family background.

Yunling had never met Miss Chen before. He obeyed his father's orders and the matchmaker's words, and the couple lived a harmonious and mutually supportive life, which was already the most perfect married life in this era.

From engagement to marriage, everything is done according to etiquette.

Yun Yi knew that the regulations in ancient times were complicated, but after seeing this series of rules being implemented before his own eyes, he had a deeper understanding of these red tape.

But he had no intention of changing the world or challenging the rules.

It is enough to stay within the rules and use them to make life better for yourself and your family.

After attending Yunling’s wedding banquet, Yun Yi sailed south again. This time, the caravan’s ship would go farther and would take longer, and he would definitely encounter more things.

Fortunately, hard work pays off. After more than a year, he finally came back, and this time Yun Yi brought back a lot of minerals.

In feudal society, 5% of the upper class monopolized 90% of the money. If you wanted to make money, you had to make it from them.

Whether it was the rare wood before or the ore this time, they had to pay out their money willingly.

The royal family's praise for these minerals is the best affirmation and endorsement.

After all, if the emperor says something is good, who dares to say it is bad?

This, coupled with hunger marketing, immediately attracted princes and nobles to flock to the product, and they took the initiative to offer money in order to buy it.

"I said that letting Yun Yi go to the Ministry of Revenue is better than staying in the Ministry of War."

Prince Ling looked at the figures in the account book and smiled from ear to ear. "As long as there is money, how many weapons can't be made? With magic weapons, there will naturally be generals who can lead the troops into magic."

"Yun Yi said that the people of the Western Regions have developed a fire gun with higher accuracy. Next time you go out, pay attention and find a way to obtain the production method."

The lethality of muskets is very great, and higher accuracy means greater lethality. When it comes to business, Prince Ling becomes much more serious.

"Second brother, do you want to train a musket army?" It would be unimaginable if everyone in the entire army could use muskets.

"Why not?" A fierce look flashed across the emperor's deep eyes. "The Western Region has already started training firearms. If we don't catch up quickly, we will soon become lambs to be slaughtered."

If you don't move forward when sailing against the current, you will move backward. If you can't keep up, you will be beaten. This is what Yun Yi said. As an emperor, he naturally understands this truth, so he must strive to catch up no matter how difficult it is.

When Prince Ling saw the serious look on the emperor's face, he wished he could go out to sea again immediately to get the production drawings of the musket from the Western Regions.

Half a year later, the caravan went out to sea again. This time the number of people was the largest ever, and there were ten more ships than before, which shows the emperor's attention to this matter.

This trip lasted for two years, and when he came back he not only brought back various scarce items in the country, but also the design drawings of the musket that the emperor wanted most.

When Yun Yi returned to Linjiang Marquis Mansion again, Yun Ling's son could already speak.

"Brother, you are not planning to leave again this time, right?" Yun Ling felt a little distressed when he saw his brother who had become darker and thinner.

Spending every day at sea must be more difficult than staying in the barracks.

“I can stay at home for a few years this time.”

Staying at home doesn't mean you can sit back and do nothing. The emperor just summoned him to the palace and ordered him to be responsible for the production of muskets.

Soon, Yun Yi got back to work again.

Yunling discovered that although his elder brother was in Beijing, he was busier than before and he was often not seen for ten days or half a month.

After the first batch of muskets were produced, recruitment and training began.

This group of firearms is independent of the army and is not mixed with the reorganized army in the court.

However, when recruiting soldiers, Yun Yi found a familiar name.

Shen Lin.

The thirteen-year-old boy is much taller and stronger than his peers. It’s obvious that his mother has raised him very well.

This is normal. After all, Shen Jiaojiao came here from another world. She knows that eating meat, eggs and milk can help one grow taller. She understands about balanced nutrition and various exercises, so she will naturally raise a good child.

"Cross him out."

Hearing Prince Ling's voice, the chief clerk crossed out the name 'Shen Lin' as ordered.

Yun Yi understood. It seemed that Prince Ling had known about the situation of Shen Jiaojiao and her son all these years.

After all, he is Lu Chengchuan's son, so it is normal for Prince Ling to be cautious.

His name has been crossed out now because he failed the political review.

He doesn't know his own life experience now, but there is no guarantee that he won't know it in the future. If he knows it, who can guarantee that he won't have other thoughts?

Eliminate any dangerous possibilities in the bud; a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.

Shen Lin was wronged, but not really wronged, because his biological father was Lu Chengchuan.

Yun Yi smiled and continued to look at the names of people who came to register.

Three days later, the government released the list of people allowed to join the army.

Shen Lin didn't see his name and thought he had read it wrong, but after looking for several times, his name was not there. Only then did he confirm that he was really not selected.

But why?

He is strong and healthy. Isn't he the best candidate to be a soldier?

After returning home in a daze, Shen Jiaojiao was not surprised at all to see that he was not selected.

Over the years, she could feel the spies who often appeared near her home, and those people would not let Shen Lin have any power at all.

And there was no need for her to tell Shen Lin all this; it would be good for him if he knew more.

Looking at her son fetching water to wipe Jiang Rang's body, Shen Jiaojiao closed her eyes, her heart withered.

He treated Jiang Rang as if he were his biological father, and Jiang Rang did not tell the truth.

Just live like this, live an ordinary life.

At this moment, Shen Jiaojiao no longer had the ambition and arrogance she had when she first came through.

Even when facing Jiang Rang's hateful gaze, he just found it ridiculous. He didn't hate those who caused him to fall to this point. Instead, he hated her for not giving him money to start a business.

How ridiculous.

And she has to spend the rest of her life with such a ridiculous person.

Sometimes she would wonder, if the time-travel god allowed her to travel through time and space to live a life like this, then why would she travel through time and space?

But after thinking for a long time without getting an answer, she could no longer think about it, because Jiang Rang was hungry and scolded her to cook...

-

The appearance of Shen Lin was like a small stone thrown into the sea, and after a moment there was no ripple.

Yun Yi was training the firegun army in full swing, and based on the firegun manufacturing drawings he got from the Western Regions, he improved several versions to make the guns more accurate.

And three years later, when a neighboring country invaded, the Fire Gun Army successfully repelled the enemy, achieving zero casualties for our army, an unprecedented record.

With the successful example, the emperor began to promote the use of fire guns in the reorganized army, and the army's combat effectiveness was improved unprecedentedly in a short time.

Yun Yi has devoted his entire life to researching more accurate muskets, and his manufacturing technology is far ahead of that of the Western Regions.

The year she died at the age of seventy, Yunling's youngest granddaughter completely inherited her mantle and made a musket that was more accurate than his.

She became the first female musket designer, and made the Linjiang Marquisate go down in history in a different way.
