Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty Chapter 142: Seeking advice!
"The prince's lesson is that the family teacher passed away early, and there is no one to urge, the kid will inevitably be a little slack in the past few months!"
In this situation, you can’t reason, quibble, and make all kinds of excuses with your elders. Following their words, retreating is the best choice. This is Li Zexuan’s numerous "struggles" , Summarized experience!
"Haha, Ruzi can teach!"
Li Xiaogong’s bold laughter rushed into the sky. He patted Li Zexuan on the shoulder and said: "This king knows that your majesty has been assigned to serve in the Imperial College, but you have to take time to practice martial arts! Uh... ahem, this king. I'm a little nosy, don't blame you kid!"
When Li Xiaogong was talking, he realized that his trip was not specifically for teaching, but for other things, which was a bit embarrassing for a while.
"Where the prince said, you can mention some kid, kid is already grateful! Please use tea! Uncle Qin, you also use tea!"
Although Li Zexuan was slandering in his heart, he calmly poured a cup of tea for the two of them and served it himself.
After receiving the tea, Qin Qiong began to talk about the topic.
"Xiao Xuan, the old man and the prince are here to exchange food this time. There are some things, the prince needs to ask you face to face. I hope you can answer truthfully. Some things are related to tens of thousands of soldiers. Life!"
Li Xiaogong also nodded, and said: "Uncle Bao is right. You made the prediction of the locust plague. You also came up with the three strategies for locust control. I think it's better to ask you this person. !"
Li Zexuan had known for a long time, and said: "If you have anything to do, please do not hesitate to ask, the kid will know everything and say nothing!"
"Good!"
Li Xiaogong pondered for a moment, his sharp gaze stayed on Li Zexuan's face for a while, and he said: "Boy, you told your Majesty that there will be a locust plague in June of this year. On this point, since your majesty and several important ministers believe you, The old man will believe you for the time being, but how did you know that the Nanyang National Assembly is rich in grain, did you go out to sea?"
Li Zexuan felt Li Xiaogong's sharp gaze, he didn't dare to hesitate more, and the related thoughts in his mind flashed away, so he replied. : "My teacher did take the kid to travel around the world in his later years. He also visited a small country in Southeast Asia. He had a little understanding of the local customs and culture. At that time, he was amazed at the rice that was grown three times a year!"
"How did you go out to sea?"
Li Xiaogong then asked.
"Merchant ship, a medium-sized merchant ship about seven or eight feet long and more than one foot wide. My family and I entered the Yangtze River from Yuezhou (the Yangtze River was abbreviated as Jiang in ancient times, and the Great River and the Yangtze River did not exist until the Sui Dynasty after the Six Dynasties. It is known as), downstream, through Ezhou, Hongzhou, and Xuanzhou, from Yangzhou to the East China Sea. Because the merchant ships are small in size and cannot withstand too much wind and waves, our ships are all sailing not far from the coast. Yes, we went all the way south, passing Liuqiu (Taian was called Liuqiu in the Tang Dynasty, and it was correct) into the South China Sea. Finally, Master and I arrived in Myanmar. After two months of traveling around the South China Sea countries, Master and I returned the same way. "
Bagging is better than not asking for money, and telling lies without blinking. This is Li Zexuan’s current state. There is no way. If you don’t tell the truth, Li Xiaogong will definitely not believe it. If he doesn’t want to go, he will be finished. Of course he just made up He didn't talk nonsense about the experience and the route, it was a route he had deliberately drawn.
Li Xiaogong touched the three-inch beard on his chin and fell into deep thought. He hadn't been to sea, so naturally he didn't know if Li Zexuan was talking about it.
"The boy, can you draw a chart for this king? It's not a secret. Although this king has commanded naval operations many times, he has never been out to sea. Regarding the risks at sea, this king has only heard about it. Experienced, with accurate charts, this team going south will experience much less risk."
Li Xiaogong thought for a long time, but didn't find the loopholes in Li Zexuan's words, so he revealed the most important purpose of his trip.
Li Zexuan thought about it seriously. In his previous life, he was very good in geography. After the high level of Chinese science, he once complained about why science students don't learn geography and want students to learn things. It is really a pit! Now, with his perverted mental power, it should be okay to recall a rough chart. At most, I will ask others about the names of some places in the Tang Dynasty and they are related to the lives of tens of thousands of people. Must be painted!
"The kid is happy to help. The prince can go back and wait for two days. After the kid has finished drawing, he will send someone to send the chart to the palace. The kid will try his best to remember these two days to ensure that the chart is as detailed and accurate as possible!"
Li Xiaogong smiled politely: "Then there is Lao Xiaoxuan!"
Li Zexuan didn't dare to connect, he hesitated for a moment, and slowly said: "The prince, in fact, about sailing, the kid thinks that there are several aspects that the prince must pay attention to, otherwise the crew will be damaged a lot like the soldiers." /
"Oh~? Come on, Xiaoxuan, if it is reasonable, this king will definitely do it!"
Li Xiaogong held the teacup in his hand, gave a sudden stop, and said hurriedly.
Li Zexuan nodded secretly. This performance of Li Xiaogong shows that he really loves soldiers like a son, otherwise he would not be so courteous to himself by virtue of being a prince.
"First, the fleet should bring enough fresh water and food~IndoMTL.com~ I don’t say this, the prince must be able to think of it. Second, the fleet must walk a short distance along the coast. On the one hand, when encountering strong winds and waves, the fleet can dock for shelter from the wind. On the other hand, when the fleet is insufficiently supplied, it can also dock at any time for replenishment.
Thirdly, all crew members must eat fruit every day. My teacher once said that if the crew members on ocean voyages do not eat fresh fruit for a long time, they will suffer from sepsis and, in severe cases, will lose their lives. "
"Hiss~!"
Qin Qiong and Li Xiaogong took a breath.
"There is such a thing?"
Li Xiaogong looked incredulous.
Li Zexuan nodded very affirmatively, and said: "This is true. The teacher was also a master of medicine before he was alive. What the old man said, should Uncle Qin and the prince believe it?"
"Believe it, I believe it, of course."
Qin Qiong nodded and said.
"The king believes, and then do as you say."
"Well, fourth, ocean navigation is a very lonely and lonely thing. Long-term loneliness can easily cause mental problems. Many crew members have not died of wind and waves, nor have they died of sepsis. In the end, he died of insanity, which is madness. So the boy hopes that the prince can organize more crews to communicate with each other on the one hand, and on the other hand, let the crew go ashore to rest while they are docking for supplies."
"This kind of thing, this king has heard of it, but I didn't expect that boy, your knowledge is quite broad!"
Li Xiaogong touched his chin, and exclaimed.
"The prince has won the award, fifth..."
