Film and Television: The Great Feng Sword Immortal, starting with Lingyue's updo hairstyle

"This place brings together the essence of turtle, abalone, lobster, and bird's nest..."

Huaiqing couldn't help but marvel at the alchemist's extraordinary imagination, which allowed him to create such a wide variety of flavors with just a simple flavor enhancer.

Since Huaiqing added various flavor-enhancing ingredients to his lunch, he finally understood why Lin'an had been frequently visiting his home in southern Jiangsu lately.

This taste is amazing!

"Su Nan, Su Nan, what is it that you haven't yet ventured into..."

Huaiqing murmured in shock.

Chapter 196 Sending a Message, Numerous Paths Reserved

In the southern Jiangsu prefecture.

"Brother Su! A major discovery!"

Song Qing gripped the small jar tightly in his hand and quickly stepped into the study in the front courtyard of the Sunan Prefecture.

He spent several days in the backyard kitchen researching flavor enhancers.

Su Nan put down his pen and looked at Song Qing with a curious gaze. In the past, although he had developed more than ten kinds of flavoring seasonings, he had never seen him so excited.

He juiced and baked every delicious ingredient he could imagine, aiming to improve MSG.

A mere ten or twenty taels of silver can buy a turtle, yet several have already perished. The number of turtles is enough to redeem several beauties. This is indeed the unique romance of a science and engineering man, something that ordinary people cannot comprehend.

"What discoveries have you made, Brother Song?"

Song Qing sat facing Su Nan, his fingers lightly touching the jar of delicacies in his arms. He said with surprise, "Unexpectedly, the best ingredient for enhancing flavor is not expensive ingredients such as soft-shelled turtle, abalone, or bird's nest."

"A chicken! An ordinary chicken!"

The broth is made by carefully simmering chicken meat and bones, adding a little dried shrimp to enhance the flavor. After simmering and drying, the broth is ground into powder and combined with an appropriate amount of MSG, resulting in an exceptionally good flavor enhancement effect!

"I never imagined that chicken essence would be far more effective than turtle essence."

Su Nan gently scratched his forehead, his fingertips lightly touching the ground. After some calculation, he concluded that there were still more than two months until Officer Xu's time travel.

Originally, I intended to leave the chicken essence for him, but Song Qing managed to get it out through his tricks. Could it be that Song Qing is following in Xu Qi'an's footsteps?

Nevertheless, Su Nan had left Xu Qi'an with many paths to follow, such as the periodic table, Constable Lü in the government office, other outstanding figures in the brothel, and the little mare in Xu Lingyue's house...

Whether or not one can grasp the situation depends on the number of people (reservation group 2, group 89, depending on 3964 people, group 460).

Time flies, and another month has passed in the blink of an eye. Xu Lingyue then stepped into the palace and pleaded to have an audience with Princess Huaiqing.

Huaiqing has been preoccupied with many affairs of state and has not set foot in the territory of Sunan Prefecture for a long time.

"Lingyue, what brings you here uninvited? Is there any urgent matter at your residence?"

Huaiqing looked weary, his gaze falling on Xu Lingyue, before turning to the palace maid beside him and giving her instructions:

"You guys step back first."

"Get up and talk."

After receiving Huaiqing's permission, Xu Lingyue mustered her courage and slowly stood up. "Young Master has something to say, which I wish to convey to the Princess."

Then, Xu Lingyue handed a note to Huaiqing. Huaiqing unfolded it and saw that it read:

"Even though my clothes are getting looser, I will never regret it. I am becoming haggard because of her."

When Huaiqing saw that sentence, the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up slightly, but he then deliberately suppressed it.

Hmph, it's only been a month since we parted, yet you're putting on such a sentimental act. Su Nan has no shortage of beautiful women by his side, so why are you pretending to be affectionate?

"Your young master seems to have lost some weight, and his complexion is not as rosy as before. Could it be due to his frequent visits to the brothel?"

She asked the question seemingly casually.

Xu Lingyue responded frankly:

"You haven't lost weight at all; you've always been in excellent health, young master." 3.0

Huaiqing took a deep breath and couldn't help but roll her eyes. She understood that Su Nan was mocking her. In this world, only Su Nan dared to tease the princess so boldly.

"Su Nan summoned you here just to deliver this message?"

She glanced at Xu Lingyue, whose cheeks were flushed, with a hint of doubt, and couldn't help but wonder: Su Nan is physically strong, how does your maid know so much about this matter?

Chapter 197 Movable Type Printing, and the Establishment of the Changqing Trading Company

"The young master recently collaborated with Mr. Song from the Imperial Observatory on a new discovery: the invention of lead type printing. A trial print has been completed and is presented for Your Highness's perusal."

Xu Lingyue responded.

As she spoke, she handed Huaiqing a simple thread-bound book and then explained to him in detail the working mechanism of lead type printing.

In reality, it employs alchemical techniques to meticulously craft commonly used characters, forming independent font units that are arranged in a block-like structure, with each commonly used character accompanied by more than ten alternative fonts.

The discovery in southern Jiangsu was purely accidental; it turned out that movable type printing had not yet been invented in the Great Feng world.

He aspired to create storybooks to make a living, but the high cost of woodblock printing (15 copies) deterred him. So he passed on the unique principles of movable type printing to Song Qing.

Song Qing was once again impressed by Su Nan's rich imagination. For an alchemist, imprinting words onto lead blocks was an easy task. However, he had never imagined that this technique could revolutionize the field of printing.

"Type...printing..."

As Huaiqing listened to Xu Lingyue's narration, a look of blankness gradually appeared in her eyes. She knew the power of this technology.

The invention of this printing technology foreshadowed a wider dissemination of books, enabling more people to read them—truly a great undertaking that will benefit generations to come.

Why is he always able to easily accomplish remarkable feats?

Huaiqing muttered to himself.

Xu Lingyue continued, "Your Highness, the young master intends to integrate the businesses of calligraphy and painting, MSG, and storybooks, and plans to establish a trading company."

Huaiqing couldn't help but feel curious, "This young master usually pursues a carefree life, so why is he so obsessed with money?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the image of Fu Xiang flashed through her mind. Although Su Nan was a human being, he also had the emotions and needs of an ordinary person. Since he was lustful, it was only natural for him to pursue wealth.

"Young Master, please, Your Highness, name the trading company."

Huaiqing suddenly sat up straight, her high, firm curves appearing even more proud and upright, making Xu Lingyue secretly envious.

"Name it?"

Xu Lingyue's eyes darted around, "Yes."

The quick-witted and perceptive Xu Lingyue was good at observing other people's emotions, and then cleverly added a sentence.

The young master said, "Your Highness is exceptionally intelligent, so the name of the business will be chosen in accordance with Your Highness's wise decision."

Huaiqing felt relieved and extremely comfortable. She had previously wondered whether Su Nan had consulted Lin'an or other women for their opinions.

"Given that this trading company is run by your young master, how about calling it 'Chang'an Trading Company'?"

Huaiqing didn't think about it deeply, but after repeating it to himself several times, he gradually felt that something was amiss.

Chang'an, Chang'an, is it the tranquility of southern Jiangsu, or the serenity of Lin'an...?

"and many more!"

Xu Lingyue had already stepped towards the door, but turned back helplessly. "Your Highness, is there anything else you need?"

83. "Let me think about it some more."

Huaiqing quickly understood.

"Chang'an Trading Company"—isn't this something that Su Nan herself can decide? Why ask her?

At this moment, she allowed her personal maid to inquire about her thoughts; no other woman could enjoy such an honor.

It was obvious that in Su Nan's mind, she was indeed completely different from those other women.

However, this is understandable, after all, it is too demanding to expect a young girl from Lin'an to come up with such a fine name.

"Changqing" signifies lasting joy and prosperity, national peace, and the well-being of the people.

Huaiqing raised the corners of her mouth slightly and responded with a smile.
