Yang Ruxin's gaze flickered for a moment. She had heard of overseas merchant ships long ago. Back when she was admiring the plum blossoms at the Shen Family estate, she had witnessed their extravagant use of glass to decorate the Warm Pavilion. At the time, Wei Yao had even volunteered to ask her father if he could procure some glass for her. However, the Wei Family's connections were limited, so they couldn't manage it.
She had also thought about asking the Eighth Prince, but later became so preoccupied with other matters that she forgot.
Now, Hao Jian had brought her a pocket watch. Could this mean he had access to Western objects like glass?
Hao Jian saw Yang Ruxin's expression and knew the gift had hit the mark. His grin became even brighter. "Sis, if there's anything else you like, just let me know and I'll help you get it. I've heard they also have sound-making boxes, needles that can point south, and other amazing things from over there..."
