After Li Yan handed over the models of the Fu Ship and Garen Ship to the shipyard, he asked Wei Heizi to preside over the leadership and build two sample ships first. The two leaders of the shipyard, Gu and Xu, naturally allocated all the best craftsmen, and set up a separate site in the shipyard to serve as a manufacturing base for two types of ships, and the two ship models were also placed here.

Originally, there was nothing to steal except wood or ropes, so there was no professional patrol. Usually, craftsmen took turns to be on duty. However, because of the carelessness at this time, a thief actually caught a thief. Moreover, the identity of this thief was not simple, and this matter started from tonight.

Under the leadership of Wei Heizi and several local boatmen, the two sample ships were constructed very smoothly at the beginning, but as the project progressed, they slowly encountered some technical problems. In order to solve these problems, Wei Heizi and several boatmen studied them almost day and night.

After dinner today, Wei Heizi returned to his residence in the shipyard, but his mind was thinking about the difficulties he encountered today. As he thought about it, a sudden light flashed in his mind. He thought of an extremely critical place. So he couldn't wait to put on his shoes and run to his usual office space, wanting to take apart the ship model and take a closer look. He didn't care at all, and it was about to be in the third day.

However, just when Wei Heizi ran to the office, he found that there was a faint light coming out of the room. At first, he thought that other boatmen were like him, and ran here to see the boat model in the middle of the night, so he was very excited. It was a pleasure to have a like-minded person discussing it together. But what Wei Heizi didn't expect was that when he entered the room, he saw a woman in black wearing a veil on her face, holding a lamp and circling around the boat model on the table.

When the woman in black saw Wei Heizi coming in, she was also startled and threw the oil lamp in her hand to the ground. She immediately wanted to jump out of the window and escape in the darkness. Although Wei Heizi was just a boatman, she was very quick-witted. She rushed forward and pulled the person down from the window, and then shouted to catch the thief. As a result, in a short while, the craftsmen who were patrolling outside rushed in and immediately grabbed the person.

"Let go! Let go! It's me!" Just as the craftsmen lit up the lights, the arrested woman immediately shouted loudly. When the craftsmen in the shipyard heard this familiar voice, their faces immediately became a little strange. One of the leading craftsmen ran over and wanted to loosen the woman, and at the same time, they kept nodding and apologizing.

Seeing that the craftsman was about to loosen his head, Wei Heizi's face darkened and he shouted angrily: "Stop. Why is a mere female thief so polite to her?"

When he heard Wei Heizi's words, the craftsman who went to loosen his ties immediately did not dare to be right. Don't look at Wei Heizi eating and living in a shipyard every day, and it seems that there is no difference between him and an ordinary ship craftsman. But in fact, he is an official of the royal palace, and he is a seventh rank, and he is on the same level as the county magistrate of the first county.

"Who are you calling a thief?" When Wei Heizi scolded him as a thief, the masked woman in black immediately retorted angrily, and her exposed eyes were slightly red with aggrievedness.

"Hmph, I broke into the important land of the shipyard in the middle of the night. What is it not a thief?" Wei Heizi was not willing to be outdone and replied coldly.

Seeing two people whom he could not afford to offend quarreled, the craftsman hesitated again and again. Finally, he ran to Wei Heizi with a charming smile and whispered: "Sir, this lady is Zhao Biejia's daughter, not a thief, look..."

"Oh? Zhao Biejia's daughter?" Wei Heizi was very surprised when he heard this, and couldn't help but ask the craftsman in a low voice. "Since he is the daughter of Lord Biejia, why do you still have to do these stealing things?"

When Craftsman Head heard Wei Heizi's question, he turned his head and looked at the woman in black. He found that the other party was even more angrily staring at this side. He couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Sir, Miss Zhao doesn't love female workers, but she is very interested in the shipbuilding and sailing. She opened a small shipyard herself, and Zhao Biejia was also very indulgent to her. Ms. Zhao is talented. Although she is only sixteen or seventeen years old, she is very proficient in shipbuilding. Usually, when we encounter difficult problems in our shipyard, we usually ask Ms. Zhao to help solve them. Today, the reason why she came here is probably for these two new types of ships." Craftsman Head said this and pointed to the ship model on the table.

After listening to the explanation of the craftsman, Wei Heizi was also stunned. He really didn't expect that the other party was his own companion, and his shipbuilding skills were so superb. In his opinion, the skills of several shipmakers in the shipyard were nothing to say, but when they encountered problems, they even asked the girl for help. It seemed that the other party's shipbuilding skills were even above him.

"Although they are the daughter of Zhao Biejia, if you really want to see it, you can watch it openly, why should you come secretly in the middle of the night?" Wei Heizi was still a little angry. These two ship models were handed over to him by His Highness the King of Qi. If something unexpected happens, he will not be able to explain it.

"Hmph, who doesn't want to come to see it openly? A few days ago, I asked Manager Gu to discuss with you and asked me to come here to see the two ship models, but you rejected it and I made this policy!" The girl in black replied in an extremely crisp voice. After seeing the ship model, her father Zhao Fu returned home and talked to her daughter. As a person who is very obsessed with shipbuilding, he naturally longed to observe these two ship models carefully.

"Uh~" Wei Heizi was stunned. At this time, he finally remembered that Director Gu did mention this matter to him, but at that time he only said that the other party was a private shipyard owner and did not mention that the other party was Zhao Biejia's daughter. Wei Heizi didn't know that Miss Zhao was a proud and would not let others open the back door for him under the banner of her father. This time he also specifically instructed Director Gu not to reveal his identity.

"Well, Miss Zhao is obsessed with shipbuilding. As a colleague, Wei can understand it. However, these two ship models are of great importance, so your highness will handle this matter." Wei Heizi thought for a while. Although the other party was Zhao Biejia's daughter, Li Yan specifically explained the matter to the ship model, so he did not dare to favoritism.

After Wei Heizi finished speaking, he immediately asked the shipyard to prepare a carriage. Regardless of Miss Zhao's loud opposition, he pulled her to the Qi Palace with others, and also sent someone to inform Zhao Fu. Zhao Fu always thought that his daughter was in the boudoir of the inner house. When he received the news, he learned that his daughter was running out to make trouble again. He was so angry that he got on the carriage and rushed to the Qi Palace with disheveled clothes. At this time, Li Yan was also alarmed and was looking at the girl in black up and down in the study of the outer house.

Because he knew the other party's identity, Wei Heizi naturally had someone loosened the girl in black, and his veil was removed by the girl in black. Now he stood in front of Li Yan in a pretty way. He looked at him without any timidity.

The girl in black looks only sixteen or seventeen years old, and her appearance is not easy to say. When she first saw it, she just felt very pleasant, but the more she looked at it, the more she felt amazing. Her face, the thin willow eyebrows were slender and her hair was covered with almond eyes, and her eyes were pure and flawless. Under her small and handsome nose was a lips that were dry due to tension, and now she was gently pursing. With her stubborn eyes, she was silently confronting Li Yan.

Looking at the other person's appearance, Li Yan suddenly smiled and asked, "Ms. Zhao likes to build ships?"

When she heard Li Yan's question, Miss Zhao was slightly stunned. She was still worried that the legendary King of Qi would punish her, but she was a proud person and refused to give in to her even in front of Li Yan. However, she didn't expect that the other party asked such a question as soon as she spoke?

"Your Highness. The young lady really likes to build ships." Although she was a little surprised, Miss Zhao still received good etiquette education and replied with a bow.

"Then what is your ideal ship like?" Li Yan asked again. The craftsman in the shipyard had already introduced to him about Miss Zhao. When he learned that there was such a talent under his rule, Li Yan was immediately surprised and did not even care about the interrupted dream. Instead, he considered the other party with interest.

"My ideal ship?" Miss Zhao's eyes flashed with confusion when she heard Li Yan's strange question. But then she immediately woke up and said in a high tone. "My ideal ship must not only be large and strong, but also extremely fast. At least it can run the entire ocean of the world in my lifetime."

"Haha, Miss Zhao has a lofty ambition and wants to run the whole world. It's amazing!" Li Yan praised with a big smile, but then said, "However, as far as I know, there is no ship in this world that can meet your requirements."

"Hmph! Isn't it just a boat? Not now does not mean there is no future. Sooner or later, I will build my ideal boat with my own hands." Miss Zhao was obviously very ambitious. She was not discouraged when she heard Li Yan's words, but became more motivated.

"What an ambition woman!" Li Yan stroked his hands and walked back and forth a few times behind the desk. Finally, he stopped and said, "Although I can't build ships, I know that one thing is. As long as I can make such things, it will definitely meet your requirements."

"Oh? What is it?" Miss Zhao's eyes lit up when she heard this. She had heard that His Highness, King Qi, was good at making tools. If she could get his help, she might really realize her wish.

"Wait here, there is a pattern of that thing in the study in the inner house, so I'll get it now." Li Yan was also very excited. He didn't expect this girl to create that thing. After all, the major was completely different. However, when some things were held in their hearts, they would feel very uncomfortable. If they could meet someone who was also interested, they would be considered a pleasure to share it.

Wei Heizi next to him couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard Li Yan mention the thing again. He had seen that picture when he was in Chang'an, but judging by his knowledge, it was simply impossible, and it was even purely his whimsical imagination.

"What are you waiting for? I'll go with you!" Miss Zhao's eyes shone, and she wished she could see the thing Li Yan brought up now. When Li Yan heard the other party say this, she didn't think much about it. She nodded and took her to the study room of the inner house.

As soon as they left, Zhao Fu, who was not dressed in dishevel, finally rushed to the study. When he saw that Wei Heizi was the only one, he immediately asked anxiously: "Where is my daughter Yifan?"

"I was taken to the inner house by Your Highness!" Wei Heizi replied in a very concise manner, thinking in his heart that Miss Zhao's name is Yifan, no wonder she likes to build ships?

Wei Heizi was concerned about the other person's name, but he had no concern at all in the middle of the night when a father heard that his daughter was taken to the inner house by Li Yan?!~!
