Chapter 146 The Charm of Sports Bottles

How is it possible?

Duoti's honest face had a crack, and he looked at Xiao Yunzhou.

Impossible, the Emperor of Jingguo could not know his plan.

Last night, he had just chosen which map of the grassland to "sell".

"Well, Duoti, although your Khan and I are brothers," Xiao Yunzhou leaned forward with sharp eyes, "but you still have to protect the grassland things brought to Jingguo."

Duoti's face twitched.

"I regard the grassland as a brother, but I am busy with government affairs, and I can't grow a pair of eyes every day to watch over everyone in Jingguo."

Xiao Yunzhou said faintly, "If Duoti, you don't keep your treasures well, and something is lost..."

For the first time, Duoti felt that he was scared by a weak man and broke into a cold sweat!

The Emperor of Jingguo obviously didn't have much meat on his body, and looked very weak. I'm afraid he could be knocked down with one hand, but Duoti's hair on the back of his neck stood up at this moment.

How could the emperor know that he was going to give the grassland map to the soldiers of Jingguo?

Duoti couldn't figure it out.

"If something really happened, Duoti, I will not only punish those who are not upright and covet the grassland treasures, but also tell my brother Sanda about your negligence in not keeping a close eye on the treasures."

Xiao Yunzhou spoke slowly, as if he was talking about an ordinary money loss.

"By the way, in Jingguo, my words will be recorded in the emperor's daily notes."

"Your Majesty, your words are all evidence for the future."

Duoti: "!"

Hou Yuchuan had a strange expression, "Your Majesty, don't worry, there are no villains in the Beijing camp..."

Xiao Yunzhou put down the teacup, "I'm not saying there is a problem in the military camp."

"I just take care of my brother Sanda's subordinates on a daily basis, just like the advice given by an elder brother to his younger brother in a common family."

Hou Yuchuan looked confused.

But Duoti's back was wet with sweat.

Xiao Yunzhou, the emperor of Jingguo, is really good!

No wonder Khan Sanda calls the Emperor of Jingguo brother!

Duoti thought Sanda was stupid before, but now he finds out that he is not stupid, he is just too naive!

"Don't worry, Your Majesty of Jingguo! We will take good care of our things!" Duoti swore.

The previous map strategy is no longer useful, he will go back and think of a new way to provoke!

[My emperor father is not usually smart, but he is okay today. He guessed right and made Duoti's map conspiracy abort. Hehehe. ]

Xiao Chuchu grinned happily behind the screen.

[The emperor father is really a fool with good luck. ]

Xiao Chuchu's praise made Xiao Yunzhou's mouth twitch.

"Okay, you can rest and arrange the competition." Xiao Yunzhou was in no mood to keep Duoti any longer.

His daughter thought he was stupid, so he had to improve his wisdom quickly.

"Hou Yuchuan, the arrangement of the competition is left to you."

Hou Yuchuan immediately accepted the order and was about to leave, but was stopped.

"Ah, I almost forgot that Liu Runnian of the Ministry of Works has developed a brand new canteen for marching. You can go get it and try it before you leave."

Xiao Yunzhou thought of this.

After returning from Xishan, he heard that Liu Runnian had made another discovery. Liu Runnian was fighting with the canteen.

"It just so happens that the first batch of ten, together with the thermos, will be issued to the winner of Xishan. If the Ministry of Revenue wants it, I don't even know."

Hou Yuchuan's eyes lit up, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty!"

A suspicious look flashed across Duoti's face.

Hmm?

Canteen for marching? Thermos?

"Well, you try it first. If it works well, I will urge the Ministry of Works to speed up production."

"Yes, I'll take my leave first!"

Hou Yuchuan pulled Duoti affectionately and took him out of the imperial study.

Duoti went out to blow the cold wind. The sweat on his back just now made him feel cool, but his mind became much clearer.

"Come on, Brother Duoti, follow me to the Ministry of Works first, and then I will go back to the foreign residence with you and pick you up to report to the Beijing Camp."

Hou Yuchuan is a soldier with a straightforward personality.

He didn't think there was anything to keep secret about a kettle.

After all, Duoti was allowed by the emperor to enter the Beijing Camp and live with them.

"Hey, Minister Chen, where is Brother Runnian?"

Hou Yuchuan greeted the Minister of Works when he arrived at the Ministry of Works.

While waiting, Hou Yuchuan introduced Duoti, "This Liu Runnian has developed several things specifically for our soldiers."

Duoti was at a loss for a moment, his eyes were straight, "Specially?"

Jingguo has such things specifically for soldiers, and they are also doing research?

There is nothing like this on the grassland.

Many of their bows and arrows for fighting are also used for hunting, and there is not much difference between the military and civilians.

Hou Yuchuan didn't know what Duoti was thinking. Soon he heard the clerk from the Ministry of Works say that Liu Runnian had gone to the suburbs to experiment with a new silk loom.

But the clerk quickly brought out two packages and took out the iron bottle wrapped in velvet.

The iron bottle was about the size of a palm, black in color, and a ring of tight velvet appeared on the outside, with a rope hook hanging on it.

"Commander Hou, you can just put this on your waist."

"The pocket of the new down jacket can just hold this long and thin bottle."

Hou Yuchuan was delighted, "This is really convenient, and it can be hung on the horse's back!"

Duoti's eyes fell on this 'marching water bottle' and he couldn't leave.

He thought it was a leather wine bag, but it turned out to be made of iron!

"So light." Hou Yuchuan added some weight and was delighted again, "It doesn't affect the marching speed, good!"

Duoti, who wanted to say that iron is not as good as leather, stared at him instantly.

Is it lighter than a leather wine bag?

You know, leather bags are easily pierced by knives and leaked when marching outside. The only advantage is that they are cheap and light.

"It must be light. Our Lord Leap Year has developed them all, and they are all fine products." The clerk of the Ministry of Works was very proud.

He pointed to the thumb-like round cap on the iron bottle, "Commander, unscrew this bottle cap and you can drink from it."

Hou Yuchuan wanted to pull it hard, but changed to twisting it after hearing it.

After twisting it several times, he was surprised. He picked up the bottle cap and looked at the spiral pattern on it.

"The previous cork caps would easily pop open or shrink and be unable to be pulled out when exposed to cold or heat."

The clerk introduced the advantages of the new bottle with a smile on his face, "This spiral cap will not be like this."

"!"

Duoti couldn't help but look at the cork cap of the sheepskin bag on his waist.

Hey! It's really like this, it's annoying when exposed to cold or heat.

At this moment, Duoti looked at Hou Yuchuan with a look that finally did not sympathize with him. Instead, he felt some desire and envy that he himself did not realize.

I saw that the black cap in Hou Yuchuan's hand was only the size of a thumb, and there was a leather rope on the cap ring connected to the bottle body, so that the cap would not fall off and be lost easily.

"Ah," Hou Yuchuan held the bottle for a while and then looked down in shock, "Why are there fingerprints on this bottle?"

"Yes," the clerk of the Ministry of Works laughed, "This is a design specially made by Leap Year. He was afraid that the bottle would slip out of his hand during horse racing, so he added finger-concave lines on the surface of the bottle."

"In this way, it will be very convenient for soldiers to drink water during the march."

"!"

Duoti looked at his waist, which became smooth and difficult to hold once filled with water.

Hmm...

In comparison, his grassland water bag is the opposite example.

[Hahahaha, isn't my uncle's marching water bottle a modern version of a sports water bottle? ]

Xiao Chuchu saw "Duoti Live" in the imperial study and laughed in her heart.

[It is said that this is the fingerprint design on the bottle that my uncle came up with when he went to the village to study silk five days ago and saw the old man in the village shaking and unable to hold the teacup. ]

[This is really the same design concept as a modern sports water bottle! ]

[Oh, the wisdom of the working people... Let the storm come even harder, so that Duoti can open his eyes~]

Xiao Chuchu was so happy.

[Duoti looked at his water bag so many times, which made me laugh to death. His eyes fell on the marching water bottle in Hou Yuchuan's hand, and he couldn't pull it up. ]

[Hehe, no man can resist the handsome new equipment! ]

Xiao Yunzhou was holding a book in the imperial study, pretending to read it, but in fact he was concentrating on listening to his daughter's voice.

He couldn't help laughing while listening.

[Oh, Duoti is going to the Beijing camp. ]

[Oh, there are scouts eating instant noodles at the outpost, hahahaha, Duoti saw it, he was stunned...]

Xiao Yunzhou's eyes lit up, "Wei Zheng, get ready, I still feel uneasy after thinking about it, I want to go to the Beijing camp to see Duoti and the others."

Xiao Chuchu's laughter suddenly paused, [? ]
