Chapter 373 Abandon the ship? Not necessarily!
"Mr. Yuwen, I have a sister below who is very interested in shipbuilding. Unfortunately, I don't know much about shipbuilding and I can't teach her, so I want to ask you to become the gentleman of the sister who teaches him the shipbuilding skills!" Before Yang Nong could speak, Li Xiu took the lead in standing up and saluting. After all, it was better to ask Qi Niang for a gentleman, and it would be better for him to say it personally.
Hearing Li Xiu's request, Yuwen Hu looked at him in surprise, then looked at the old woman named He Niang beside him, and then pondered for a moment and said, "Li Jijiu, why does your sister, a woman, learn the art of shipbuilding?"
It’s not that Yuwen Huo is strange. After all, in this era, it’s nothing to learn about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but I have never heard of any woman who likes to build ships?
"This..." Li Xiu didn't know how to explain when he heard this, so he had to smile helplessly, "My sister has always been very proficient in astronomy, geography, and mathematics, which is not comparable to ordinary women. Now I feel that teaching is beyond my mind, and she suddenly became interested in shipbuilding. I couldn't resist her, so she asked Mr. Yang to find talents in this field. Later, she found out about the whereabouts of her husband, so she came together to ask her husband to come out!"
Li Xiu could not say that Qi Niang wanted to build a ship and went to find Li Chengdao, so she could only say that. However, Yu Wenxu frowned when he heard his words, and then shook his head and said, "I can understand Mr. Li's painstaking efforts, but Ling Mei was just on a whim, and building a ship is a very boring thing. I'm afraid she will lose interest in a short time, so you should ask her to go back!"
When he heard Yu Wen Hu rejected him in one whisper, Li Xiu didn't know what to say for a moment. Fortunately, Yang Nong immediately spoke: "Brother Yu Wen, I have seen Li Jijiu's sister before. Although she is young, she is indeed very smart and is definitely not comparable to ordinary women. Moreover, you don't seem to have children now. You can't just be buried in nothing. You have to find someone to pass on it. I think Li Jijiu's sister is a good candidate!"
In response to Yang Nong's persuasion, Yu Wenju smiled bitterly and shook his head, hesitated for a moment before speaking: "To be honest with Brother Yang, since my family was destroyed, my legs have been broken and I have no ambitions. Now I just want to spend the rest of my life quietly with the company of He Niang, and I really don't want to waste any effort anymore!"
Yuwen Yu was not very loud, but his tone was very firm. Perhaps in the eyes of others, his life is very hard and even a little pitiful, but he was already used to this kind of life. After experiencing family changes, he was almost dead. If he hadn't been accompanied by He Niang, a loyal maid, by his side, he would have died long ago and would have gone to accompany his family underground.
"Brother Yuwen, you..." Yang Nong couldn't help but feel anxious when he heard this, but he didn't know what to say. As an old man who was a few years older than Yuwenze, he could also understand Yuwenze's mood.
"Mr. Yuwen, do you want to think about it again? My sister really wants to learn how to build a ship!" Li Xiu said again at this time. Yang Nong searched for so long to find Yuwen. Moreover, there were few talents in this area. If he didn't want to, he would not know if he could find it in the future, so he didn't want to give up easily.
"Thank you for your kindness to Prince Li. But I am old and stay at home for one day and I really don't want to go on a trip anymore!" Yu Wenxu said again. After saying that, he looked at He Niang next to him again, and then said nothing again.
Seeing that Yu Wenjiu still refused, Yang Nong and Li Xiu didn't know what to say anymore. The atmosphere was a little awkward. In the end, Li Xiu was a little discouraged and was thinking of saying goodbye to leave, but at this moment, he suddenly saw several exquisitely shaped wooden boat models on the windowsill next to him, each of which was very complete, looking like a real boat.
Seeing the models of ships on the windowsill, Li Xiu couldn't help but feel moved. He suddenly stood up and walked over, and reached out to pick up a model of ships. At this time, the old woman He Niang next to Yuwen Yu wanted to speak to stop her, but Yuwen Yu stopped her.
Li Xiu turned around with the ship model, and smiled and said to Yuwen with a smile: "Are these ship models all written by Mr. Yuwen?"
"I made Prince Li laugh. After I was disabled, I survived by doing some skills. These ship models were indeed made when I was bored!" Yu Wenxu replied with a faint smile at this time, but when he mentioned the ship model, a trace of pride still flashed in his eyes. After all, this is what he is best at in his life.
"This ship model is indeed very exquisite, with both the tail rudder and the cable, which looks like it is real!" Li Xiu exclaimed when he heard this, which also made Yu Wenju smile a little, but at this moment, Li Xiu suddenly changed his mind and asked with a smile, "But I have a question that I have never understood. I wonder if I can ask Mr. Yuwen for advice?"
"I dare not be the word "Ask" and I don't dare to be the one. But Mr. Li said he didn't dare to be the one, but he still had a bit of conceit in his tone. In fact, after he knew that Li Xiu also knew the mechanism skills and designed a wheelchair, he couldn't help but be even more curious. He wanted to know what level of mechanism skills Li Xiu had?
"Haha, the problem below is very simple. The ship must have to float on the water. But if a big hole is broken at the bottom of the ship, will the ship definitely sink?" Li Xiu asked his question with a smile. As soon as this question came out, Yu Wenju had fallen into his trap, and the other party's performance just now gave Li Xiu a little more certain.
"The bottom of the ship is broken? Then you have to see how far it is. If it can be repaired in time and the water inlet in the ship is discharged, the ship will naturally not sink. But if the rescue is not timely, you can only abandon the ship." Although the question raised by Li Xiu seemed a bit "naive", Yu Wenju did not underestimate Li Xiu for this, but answered very seriously.
"If the repair is not done in time, can you really have to abandon the ship?" Li Xiu asked deliberately again at this time.
"You can only abandon the boat!" Yu Wenhu replied affirmatively again, but at this time he felt something was wrong, but he couldn't think of something wrong?
"That may not be possible. I have thought of a solution, which may solve this problem!" Li Xiu said with a smile again. (To be continued.).
