Chapter 216 Bird gun is released

When Xue Mei went to the second room the next day, she heard her second aunt and the others telling jokes.

It was said that Xue Xi had ripped the man's clothes.

"Big sister, you absolutely can't imagine who that person is." Xue Huai was overjoyed, "It's Wang Hongge."

"who?"

"It's the eldest son of the Wang family who is born in vain. He wants to discuss his marriage with Xier." Xue Huai said with a smile.

Xue Mei: "..."

"His clothes hooked Xi'er's hair and couldn't be untied for a moment. I asked him and Xi'er to sit down in the private room, and my second sister-in-law slowly untied them." Xue Huai smiled, "I'll ask who he is and what he is."

The second young lady also said, "Xi'er was anxious and tried hard to pull her hair, but the hairpin caught her clothes and was entangled by her hair again.

As soon as she pulled it, she tightened it from nowhere, and she couldn't solve it. In the end, she just asked the store to get scissors and cut off the strand of hair before it was separated."

Xue Mei was listening to the opera: "What's the matter?"

"We asked him for a meal, and he said he had used it." Xue Huai rushed to answer, "I asked him Taifu, and he said his name. He asked who we were. Xier stepped on my feet and didn't allow me to tell."

"Xi'er heard who he was, and was embarrassed and anxious. She didn't allow me to say that I just made up one randomly, saying that our surname was Hu, and we were from the Mansion of the Minister of Justice of Qianjie." Xue Huai said again, "Mr. Hu really has a son as old as me."

Xue Mei also laughed.

She picked up the tea and took a few sips.

Seeing that she didn't ask any further, Xue Huai was impatient: "Big sister, don't you ask about the character and appearance of the prince Wang?"

"This marriage cannot be done, what do you want?" Xue Mei said.

Xue Huai: "That's true. Oh, no wonder Xier didn't allow me to report myself. Xier was still a little anxious."

Several people laughed.

After a gossip, Xue Mei got up and went to the Ancheng County Prince's Mansion.

The little prince specially ordered that in the future, the county lord would not be allowed to invite her into the backyard directly when he went to the mansion, and he would report to the prince himself; if the prince himself was not at home, he would also ask the county lord to do so.

Unless the prince goes out far, the county lord is not allowed to be allowed to enter.

"...Isn't it so safe for me?" Xue Mei was speechless about this, "Isn't it just mahjong? Isn't it all my credit for being so harmonious in the little prince's house?"

The little prince gritted his teeth: "How dare I bother the county lord so much?"

Xue Mei laughed.

She is not here to talk to her.

The oil-paper umbrella has been sold for more than two months, and Xue Mei sends her mother to reconcile every month.

In addition to reconciliation, Xue Mei can get dividends to the little prince every month.

Xue Mei is not short of money, so naturally she won’t ask for it every month.

She even talked to the little prince about the concepts of money houses and loans. The little prince said that it was related to the government affairs and he didn't want to do it.

"Give me the dividends for the first two months first." Xue Mei said.

Xiao Mingyu went to get the account book.

By March, the popularity of oil-paper umbrellas in Kyoto has dropped significantly, but in several bustling towns in other places, they sold well.

Xue Mei received nearly 10,000 taels of dividends in two months, which means that the little prince made 100,000 taels.

His business is indeed very big.

"By the way, is my bird gun ready?" Xue Mei asked.

Xue Mei did not have the idea of ​​keeping the bird gun secret. Her only request was not to tell the emperor and not let the court know.

Xiao Mingyu also agreed.

Xue Mei told him the drawings and manufacturing principles. The barrel of the bird gun is easy to crack, which requires a blacksmith with extremely skilled skills.

Xiao Mingyu specially invited three blacksmiths to Beijing for this purpose.

Once the iron pipe explodes, it is likely to hurt yourself, so Xue Mei has strict requirements on the barrel.

Xiao Mingyu has been working on it for so many days, and finally got three.

"Do you know how much time and how much iron I spent for these three things?" Xiao Mingyu complained to Xue Mei.

He bought the iron on the black market, and the price was even higher.

Xue Mei: "Thank you, the little prince. You can calculate how much money, and I will pay you back."

Xiao Mingyu: "I don't want money, but I think this thing is not worth much."

Xue Mei: "..."

Xiao Mingyu continued: "First of all, you have to be careful not to let it hurt yourself; secondly, fill in gunpowder once and ignite, will the enemy give you such time? Besides, the lethality is nothing more than that."

Xue Mei: "You are right, why are you so wise?"

This is a sentence for dealing with gangster essence.

Fortunately, the little prince doesn't understand, otherwise he would have to fight Xue Mei to death.

The three bird guns used nearly one thousand taels of silver and took a lot of time. Xue Mei gave the little prince two thousand taels, which was considered to be a reward for him.

The little prince also knew the method of making bird guns, which was also considered another wealth that Xue Mei gave him.

On the way back, Xue Mei repeatedly stroked the three bird guns, feeling very happy.

Indeed, bird guns are very troublesome because they are disposable. They have to fill in gunpowder, ignite the firing line, shoot once, and there is also the danger of blowing up the chamber.

Xiao Mingyu is right. Normally, the value is not too high.

Unless you have seen its true power.

It is easy to look at it lightly by relying on your mouth.

Xue Mei wiped each of them cleanly and brought them back to his mansion.

The maids were curious about what it was.

Xue Mei has not yet filled with gunpowder, and this thing is three iron sticks, so you can play with the maids.

"It's a bird gun."

"How to rush?" Hongluan was puzzled, "Miss, tell me what we can understand."

Xue Mei smiled.

This is a bit difficult to explain clearly.

She thought about it and still couldn't think of the right words, so forget it.

After Xue Mei won the gold medal, she went to the palace twice.

The first time, she went to see Empress Dowager Qi, Empress Dowager Hu, Empress and others; the second time, Xue Mei went to see Concubine Dan Tai, and then went to the Imperial Hospital.

Her medicine came inexplicably, and the people from the Imperial Hospital did not hear about her achievements.

"County Lord, I heard that you used Dachengqi Decoction to cure a person who was unconscious with a hanged coma?"

"Yes." Xue Meidao.

"How do you use medicine?" Doctor Sun was very curious, "Let me tell us."

Xue Mei told them about the idea of ​​brain edema. They still didn't believe it when they heard "brain edema".

Then, Xue Mei said that one would be anatomized for them to see another day, which almost scared the people from the Imperial Hospital and even wanted to go to the emperor to sue her.

"I'm joking, don't complain." Xue Mei was afraid of these people and had to beg for mercy.

Doctor Sun had the best relationship with Xue Mei and said earnestly: "People, you have to restrain yourself. You always act like this and speak horriblely. I'm afraid no one dares to marry you."

“No.”

"Yes, some people guess you won't get married." Doctor Sun said, "Listen, this is so ugly. You are a good girl's house, a county lord, and you are from the Yongning Marquis' Mansion. Isn't it unfair to be so gossiped about?"

Xue Mei: "..."

She not only wants to get married, but also wants to get married well, so that they can all know her abilities.

After leaving the Imperial Hospital, Xue Mei met Xiao Mingyu who happened to leave the palace again.

Xiao Mingyu came to visit Empress Dowager Hu.

"Minister, will you have time in the future?" Xiao Mingyu asked her.

Xue Mei: "What do you say first? I will listen to what I want to decide whether I have time or not."
