Chapter 96
But... just having returned, seeing the pastries on Ying Su's side, she couldn't help swallowing her saliva again!
Finally, summoning her courage, she went straight to Ying Su's side and carried over the entire plate of pastries.
Then, she grabbed one piece and ate it right away!
And with that single bite, her face was filled with bliss.
Seeing her like this, Ying Su burst out laughing; finally, he simply placed all the pastries in front of him onto her table!
And, pouring a cup of fruit wine from his bottle for her, he did not forget to introduce it:
"This osmanthus cake is made from osmanthus flowers; this plum blossom pastry is made from plum blossoms and vegetable oil; and this, this is called a puff, its production process is very troublesome; the most critical part is that it requires wheat!"
"And this, this is called fruit wine, brewed from grapes and bananas!"
While Ying Su was introducing them, Wang Lan ate with her mouth full of fragrance!
Finally, she tasted Ying Su's fruit wine!
At that moment, she felt as if her whole body was about to take flight.
And Ying Su, watching her expression, smiled: "Do you want to eat these delicious things every day from now on?"
"If you want to eat them, how about you come with me?"
062, Ying Su only wants you to pay taxes! I will exterminate your entire clan!
"Ah?"
"If you want to eat them, how about you come with me?"
The moment Ying Su spoke these words, Wang Lan was completely stunned:
"This... this... you still say you are not a bad person? Just based on these few pastries, you... you want me to ~ marry you?"
At this very moment, Wang Lan was truly stunned.
She admitted she had a bit of a good feeling for Ying Su, but... but... Ying Su's method was too outrageous, too direct!
Just based on a few pastries, plus a bottle of fruit wine, he actually... actually wanted to marry her?
She was stunned!
She was truly stunned!
And Ying Su, hearing her words, was equally stunned!
Marry her?
This little girl actually said he wanted to marry her?
In that instant, he was numb with shock!
But very quickly, he realized Wang Lan had misunderstood his meaning.
He immediately explained: "My asking you to come with me does not mean I want to marry you!"
"Ah?"
The moment he spoke, Wang Lan was stunned!
Ying Su did not waste words; he directly placed a musket in front of Wang Lan!
"This... what is this?"
Wang Lan was somewhat distracted!
When she first heard Ying Su say he did not want to marry her, she breathed a long sigh of relief in her heart!
But immediately after, she felt a strange sense of loss!
Ying Su smiled!
He did not care about Wang Lan's thoughts!
He directly began loading gunpowder on the spot, and then, with a bang, fired the musket!
Instantly, a small tree in front of them was blasted into fragments!
"This... this..."
The scene before her eyes directly made Wang Lan's mouth gape wide open in shock!
"This... what is this thing?"
"Actually... actually..."
She was utterly shocked!
For a moment, she actually found herself unable to speak!
And Ying Su did not hide anything at all; he directly explained the principle, function, and range of this object to Wang Lan!
After Wang Lan finished listening, she could not help but praise it; then, taking the musket, she fired a shot!
After firing one shot, she fired another!
Several times in a row, she actually got addicted to playing with it.
Ying Su quickly stopped her!
You must know, before finding a saltpeter mine, the current gunpowder is extremely precious!
Almost every firing of the musket means a latrine has been scraped clean!
"Tell me the methods for making this musket, for making pastries, and for brewing fruit wine!"
Wang Lan's eyes sparkled!
She truly loved these things immensely!
And Ying Su, seeing this scene, simply smiled.
At the same time, he also could not help but breathe a long sigh of relief in his heart!
Yes!
Originally, I was still worried!
He worried that a single musket might not be enough to awe her, that it might make her feel unconcerned.
He had even specially brought a revolver along.
But he hadn't expected that a single musket would directly awe her into submission.
But thinking about it, it was only to be expected!
Gunpowder was only discovered during the Tang Dynasty!
It only began to be used during the Song Dynasty!
It formally entered the battlefield during the Yuan and Ming periods.
This is a product that transcends eras; even if Wang Lan were a genius, she could not possibly have seen such a thing!
And this thing was completely sufficient to awe her!
He now felt confident!
At this moment, Ying Su formally extended an invitation to Wang Lan:
"I have inquired about you; I know you have deep research into the Mohist mechanical arts and are deeply obsessed with them!"
"I can tell you the methods for making this musket, as well as pastries and fruit wine!"
"But... I hope you will enter the Great Qin Shaofu Bureau's Workshop!"
"What?"
"The Great Qin Shaofu Bureau's Workshop?"
The moment the words left his mouth, Wang Lan was utterly shocked!
The Great Qin Shaofu Bureau's Workshop!
To be honest, this was a place she desperately wanted to enter.
Because... she fully understood that this was the place where the Great Qin conducted research and manufactured weapons.
But in this era, although the mindset of valuing men over women was not as backward as in later generations, a woman showing herself publicly could ultimately not be accepted!
And she had been rejected time and again for this very reason.
Even though she was Wang Jian's granddaughter, she still could not enter the Great Qin Workshop!
"This... is it true?"
"Can I really enter?"
She swallowed her saliva; for a moment, her eyes both seemed to glow!
Ying Su smiled: "I am the Emperor; as long as I say you can, you certainly can!"
"But the premise is that you must be willing! And you must truly be able to create Mohist mechanical beasts!"
"Mohist mechanical beasts? What's so difficult about that!"
