So the one that all people should praise was Lie Fan in Liu Ye's opinion because Lie Fan introduced many technologies and new innovations that transformed the current norm, like the crop rotating system and several inventions that he introduced even though it wasn't his own but Lie Fan was very open in trying new ideas, and that what caused innovation to flourish under him.
Even though most of the innovation was still from Lie Fan, and he was still the first one, Liu Ye was sure that he would be the path opener for others to follow suit, and show Lie Fan the innovation they had thought of.
Liu Ye's words caused Lie Fan to be stunned as he never expected that Liu Ye would say such a thing, he was a bit embarrassed by the high compliments that Liu Ye gave because he felt that he didn't deserve them.
All the inventions and innovations that he thought of were from the system, and weren't from 'people' that he used as a justification to trick his retainers, and his open minded attitude was because he was from the modern world, so he accepted new things very easily.
Seeing the astounded look on Lie Fan's face, Liu Ye and Mi Zhu looked at each other confused as they had never seen Lie Fan so surprised, but before one of them could say anything Lie Fan woke up from his daze.
As he woke up from his daze, Lie Fan thanked Liu Ye for the praise, and that he would borrow his good words, and that more innovations would come soon under his leadership, which contribute to a better future for all.
Lie Fan's words caused both Mi Zhu and Liu Ye to nod their head, and since the outer wall of Xiapi had been finished and maybe needed some polishing here and there to ensure that it would stand tall for a long time, Lie Fan brought Liu Ye and Mi Zhu back to the Governor Castle.
In the Governor Castle, Lie Fan informed Chen Gui and Xun You who were there that he would be heading to Huai'An and inspect some of the invention reports that he had received.
Hearing that Chen Gui and Xun You both nodded their head and told Lie Fan that they would inform his family of his trip, and ask him if he needed anyone to accompany him on this trip.
They were replied by Lie Fan who said that he would bring Liu Ye and Mi Zhu alongside him, and for safety, he would bring his Tian Mao Battalion with Xu Rong, as well as some of his bodyguards.
Liu Ye and Mi Zhu hearing that their name be called cupped their hand to Lie Fan, receiving the decree that Lie Fan gave for them to follow him.
He informed someone in Xiapi about his trip which would take more or less around 3 weeks, where he would ride nonstop toward Huai'An and keep the trip under one month's duration.
He doesn't want to waste his time on his trip when he could spend more with his family or do other things that are much more important than inspecting inventions that were finished.
Before leaving, he also left some instructions to Chen Gui and Xun You that he wanted to increase the number of their soldiers in all of the Army Groups under him, to prepare for their next war.
Listening to Lie Fan's words, Xun You asked Lie Fan with surprise in his voice who would they attack next. Because the current landscape is very tricky, and every single move needs countless times to think about.
Lie Fan shook his head and said that he didn't know who to attack at the moment, maybe Yuan Shao or Cao Cao would be his next target silently Lie Fan added that he had left these two to grow for so long and all the plans he had for them have been messed up due to the system quest.
Both Chen Gui and Xun You didn't know about the last sentence that Lie Fan said inside his heart, but they were still surprised that Lie Fan's next target would be either Cao Cao or Yuan Shao.
The two neighboring behemoths beside Lie Fan's domain, and knowing that the two of them could only nod their head in acknowledgment to Lie Fan's word, and with that Lie Fan left the Governor's Castle with Liu Ye and Mi Zhu in tow heading toward the Army camp outside of Xiapi.
Arriving at the Army camp, Lie Fan was greeted by Xu Rong and Zhao Yun who was going to leave the camp and head back to Xiapi, and such coincidence helped Lie Fan as he didn't need to search for Xu Rong in the army camp.
Seeing Lie Fan, the two of them kneel down and greet Lie Fan, where Xu Rong then asks Lie Fan the reason why he came to the Army Camp.
Lie Fan informed the two of them the reason why he came here, and hearing that Lie Fan would go out and needed the Tian Mao Battalion to escort him, Xu Rong stood up and told Lie Fan that he would prepare the Tian Mao Battalion right away.
Zhao Yun hearing that Lie Fan will leave, asks him if he can join Xu Rong in protecting Lie Fan and his party with the White Horse Battalion under him, Lie Fan refuses and tells Zhao Yun that he and his battalion can protect his family while he is gone.
Zhao Yun heard that received Lie Fan's assignment, and promised that he would protect Lie Fan's family to the best of his abilities, and then Lie Fan waited for Xu Rong and the Tian Mao Battalion for over an hour before they came out from the Army Camp.
Everything was ready and prepared, so Lie Fan led his entourage toward Huan'An secret base where they rode nonstop spending around a week, fortunately, Mi Zhu and Liu Ye were still in their prime age, so the long ride didn't take a toll on their body.
Arriving at Huai'An secret base, Lie Fan and his entourage spend a day resting and letting their body recreate their energy, and the next day Lie Fan takes Liu Ye and Mi Zhu to meet with the leaders of the base.
They hold the meeting at the main hall of the base, where it has a large space and that it has a large courtyard, where the crafters, alchemists, and blacksmiths could show Lie Fan the prototype they have made.
Lie Fan: "Everyone, I came here as soon as I could when I received the report that you have managed to make a mirror, which you describe as a different kind of glass, and that you could see your reflection?"
Head Of Alchemist Group: "Yes My Lord! The schematics of the glass making technique you gave us, not only showed us how to make glass, but it also had another page that told us how to make mirrors, that's what it called in the paper and we tried to make it after we managed to create the glass, and after many try it works!"
Lie Fan: "Marvelous! That's what I like, all of you have the initiative to make it and not wait for me to order everyone to make it, and before I forget I also would like to apologize that I haven't had the time to come here when you all managed to make glass for the first time."
Head Of Crafters Group: "Dont worry My Lord, we understand that you are very busy and have many things to do, and in truth we not only managed to create the mirror, but we also tried to make the telescope and have managed to finish the prototype several days before your arrival."
Lie Fan hearing what he said immediately stood up from his chair due to his excitement, and asked if what he said was true while inwardly he never expected that his men would be this fast.
Looking at Lie Fan who was excited and disbelieving, the Head of Crafters Group told one of his men to bring in both the mirror and telescope prototype, and after waiting for a couple of minutes several people entered the room bringing both the mirror and the telescope prototype.
Looking at the two of them, Lie Fan immediately walked up toward it alongside Mi Zhu and Liu Yw who followed suit, wanting to see the two of them with their own eyes.
The Head of each specialist group also followed Lie Fan, and so in the middle of the hall everyone was standing looking at the two newest inventions, and Lie Fan first took a look at the mirror.
Seeing how he you're see his reflection clearly, Lie Fan was very happy and let out a loud laugh as this meant he could expand his business venture, where the bronze mirror could be sold cheaply to the commoners, and the glass mirrors could be sold with higher price to the nobles, merchants, and scholars caste.
Both Mi Zhu and Liu Ye were very surprised as to how clearly they could see their reflection, Mi Zhu especially could see how profitable the mirror would be in the noble's markets, as the ladies would be very interested in this and they could do their makeup easily.
As for Liu Ye, he could see the practicality of mirrors to be used in daily lives and even used as a spy gadget, where they could use a small mirror to see through the cover, allowing the Oriole to peek without showing themselves.
After finally satisfied looking at his face, Lie Fan put down the mirror in his hand took the telescope from the tray, and headed toward the courtyard of the main hall, where its background was the harbor of the secret base as it was not very far from their location.
Lie Fan used the telescope by extending it to the maximum length it could and taking a look at the people who were working at the harbor, and when he could see clearly the people working there he was very excited.
It's not only the people working, when he used it for the first time what he saw was a black scene and he thought that it was broken, when he moved to the side for a bit what he saw was the color blue and Lie Fan could immediately guess that it was the ocean, and he remembered that it was the prototype of the brass telescope so he decreases the length of the telescope and could see clearly the scenery of people working at the harbor.
