Queen and Her Duke

Oak now,"

Holding the small piece of wood in his hand, Humphreys re-determined the color and smell of the wood.

Although the wood is cheap, because of its flammable properties, if it is used for shipbuilding, it must be coated with a layer of denim oil, and the price of denim oil is comparable to gold.

Businessmen use it to make exquisite warship models.

Wen Lin smiled meaningfully, "Mr. Humphreys, sometimes we can't distinguish things with our eyes alone, it's no different from being blind,"

Without selling out, Wen Lin pointed out directly,

"Put the wood and oak together in seawater for two months, then apply tung oil and expose it to the sun. Repeatedly, the color and smell of the wood will become very close to oak."

"Ridiculous, what do you say? Never heard such a strange statement,"

Seemingly grabbing Wen Lin's sore foot, several other people couldn't wait to refute her.

There was too much noise in her ears, Wen Lin frowned lightly, her eyes were cold, and when she moved her hand, the long knife came out, nailed straight to the wooden wall, and made a sharp trembling sound.

Several people suddenly restrained their voices, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.

After Wen Lin looked away, they touched their necks in a panic, and there seemed to be a burst of coolness wiping them against their necks just now.

Ugly is over.

A bit of disgust flashed across Humphus' face. These people were stuffed in by the old nobles to ask for news, and it was difficult for Humphers to refuse.

Not only is it useless, but it adds chaos everywhere.

Proper waste.

After her ears were clear, Wen Lin completely ignored them. She walked to Hanvers' side and pointed to the small circle of annual rings in the center of the horizontal plane.

"You can go to verify, cut the thicker mast transversely, and you will find the jagged tree rings in the center,"

"The growth rings of oak are all regular circles, only the innermost ring of the sapwood is sawn.

toothed,"

It was a very useful clue, and Humphreys immediately asked the servants to verify it.

After getting a positive answer, he exclaimed, "Your Excellency Wen Lin, your profound knowledge is impressive,"

Wen Lin smiled and said nothing.

Hanvers, who found the clues as he wished, could hardly wait to return to the city, but Wen Lin wanted to stay and have a good visit.

Hanvers carefully instructed the stewards here, and left a carriage,

Before leaving, he said with sincerity, "Miss Wenlin, Her Majesty Vicia is a monarch worthy of allegiance,"

"She is kind and merciful. I came from a commoner. She gave countless people like me the opportunity to look up at the sky, including pirates, of course."

"Your outstanding knowledge and talent will definitely win a place in Golan, even if you are a woman,"

If it wasn't for Hanvers being too emotional, Wen Lin would have praised him as a qualified vassal and never forget to recruit talents for the queen.

"Thank you, I'll consider it seriously," Wen Lin's red lips curled slightly, her eyes lowered to hide the turbulence that instantly appeared when she mentioned Vicia.
