The Full-Leveled Healer Transmigrates to a Real and Fake Rich Daughter Story

It was true!

Gu Yuan did not want to ask how they met at all. In his opinion, his sister was so outstanding that it was only right for the Eldest Prince to remember her.

Gu Yanfei picked up a piece of plum blossom cake for Gu Yuan with her chopsticks and asked casually, “Big Brother, have you been to the State of Yue?”

“I’ve read in books that there are many dialects in the State of Yue. In some places, there are dozens of dialects in a state.”

Gu Yanfei was not familiar with the State of Yue at all.

In her previous life, her world was too small, and she only had this small Dingyuan Marquis Household. She didn’t even know much about the capital, let alone the distant State of Yue.

Gu Yuan took a bite of the plum blossom cake and shook his head. When his dark phoenix eyes met Gu Yanfei’s curious eyes, they were dyed with warmth and became even gentler.

He gathered his thoughts and smiled. “I’ve never been there, but I’ve heard some of it from friends.”

“The State of Yue is rich in tea leaves and silk. Many cloth shops on Great Yan Street sell the silk of the State of Yue. It’s often said that the silk of the State of Yue is dyed with the color of spring water in Jiangnan and is more graceful than the material of the Great Jin.”

“When you’re free one day, I’ll bring you to the area around Great Yan Street. That area is also called South Yue Street. Many shops on the street sell South Yue goods, such as snacks, paper kites, embroidered screens, pouches, fans…”

“By the way, there’s also a theater on Great Yan Street. They invited a theater troupe from the State of Yue to sing a song from the State of Yue.”

Gu Yuan racked his brains and said everything. He had heard everything from his bad friends, so it was a little messy and scattered.

“Big Brother.” Gu Yanfei leaned forward slightly and leaned closer to him. She pinched Gu Yuan’s sleeve coquettishly. “Then let’s agree to go to the shop on Great Yan Street next time and buy some Jiangnan materials to make clothes?”

“After that, we’ll go see the theater troupe you mentioned.”

In her previous life, the siblings had missed a lot. In this life, Gu Yanfei did not want to miss it again.

She would tell Gu Yuan what she wanted to do and what she liked.

“Whatever you want to do, I’ll accompany you.” Gu Yuan agreed to everything. He was even thinking that since his sister liked to watch the show so much, perhaps he could buy a troupe for her in the future. At that time, she could watch it whenever she wanted.

However, before that, he had to work hard to save up money for his sister’s dowry!

After marrying, his sister could live as she pleased. She could live happily and wantonly without being restrained in the Marquis Mansion.

Originally, Gu Yuan was not interested in going to the imperial guard. No matter how glamorous the imperial guard was and how bright its future was, it was not what he yearned for or chased after.

But now…

Gu Yuan had a new idea.

Today, since the Eldest Prince had told him so much, and even told him the secrets about the blueprint of the “flintlock”, it meant that the Eldest Prince must have other plans for him… Or rather, the Eldest Prince had the intention to use him!

Yes, this was not the time of the late Emperor.

He was confident that with his ability, he would definitely be able to create a world that belonged to him in the army like his father!

For his sister, he had to work harder!

Thinking of this, Gu Yuan’s fighting spirit could not help but be ignited. His black pupils burned brightly as he said in high spirits, “Sister, my 10 days of leave are definitely gone. Next, I have to accompany the Eldest Prince. I’ll be busy again…”

“After I’m done with my work, I’ll definitely bring you to play in the capital!”

Looking at Gu Yuan like this, an inexplicable urge arose in Gu Yanfei’s heart. She also wanted to pat her brother’s head.

However, her brother would not be happy.

She smothered a laugh in her heart, and her eyes curved into a smile.

“My Lady!” Juan Bi finally returned, holding a heavy rectangular wooden box in both hands.

Gu Yuan personally opened the long wooden box and saw a new flintlock quietly placed on the red velvet cloth in the box. The black and slender barrel shone with a cold luster, and there were eight or nine pellets beside the gun.

Gu Yanfei looked at the strange flintlock and took it out of the box with interest. It was heavy in her hand.

The little girl’s arms were clearly as thin as the barrel of a gun, but she easily grabbed the heavy flintlock in both hands, as if she was holding a long sword with ease.

Gu Yanfei held the flintlock in her hand and casually played with it. She touched the barrel, hooked the trigger, and touched the butt of the gun…

Gu Yuan first introduced the various parts of the flintlock. Then, he began to teach her step by step how to clean the barrel, where to fill it with gunpowder, and where to reload the pellets…

“The steps to fire a gun are far more cumbersome than a bow shot. It takes at least a dozen breaths to fire once.”

“However, pellets are pushed out of the chamber by burning gunpowder. They’re far faster and more lethal than ordinary feather arrows. They can pierce a person’s skull at a hundred paces.”

Gu Yuan had never used a firearm before. It was only when he was in the Ministry of War that the Eldest Prince personally demonstrated it to him.

It was indeed not difficult to master, and practice makes perfect. No wonder Gu Yuan had heard from his superiors that, on the battlefield, training a soldier to use a musket was far easier than training an archer.

He spoke quite carefully, and Gu Yanfei listened attentively. She nodded repeatedly and rubbed her chin excitedly. “Big Brother, can I try?”

This firearm called the flintlock was a little like a low-level spiritual artifact from the Bright Spirit Realm, but its power sounded much weaker than a spiritual artifact.

She only had to play with it in her hand for a moment to understand the pros and cons of this thing. For example, the combustion of gunpowder could produce a powerful thrust that would push the pellet out, but it would probably affect the accuracy of the flintlock at the same time.

Despite that, a flintlock was probably a killing weapon in this small world.
