The emperor thought that if the poison carried by the British was destroyed, they would become angry and stop coming.

Who knew that after receiving the latest news, Prince Jason had already passed Yumen Pass and was heading towards the capital.

We will definitely arrive in the capital in time for the emperor's birthday.

Yan Bao knew that Prince Jason would not fail to come, and he had traveled such a long way. If he returned without success, his trip would not have been in vain.

This man is still waiting to settle the score with himself!

On the emperor's side, in order to show his national prestige and let the British people know how powerful he was, he called Brother Shen to the Royal Study Room and asked about the situation of the power station. Since Brother Shen took charge of the power station, he felt that he had aged ten years.

According to the emperor's wishes, lighting up the lights on his birthday is the best birthday gift.

Brother Shen: "..."

Brother Shen, who was under great pressure, returned to the Shen family and went directly to find Yan Bao. He didn't say anything, just looked at Yan Bao.

Yan Bao felt fuzzy when her elder brother looked at her, and in the end she could only compromise: "If you need any help from me, elder brother, just ask. If you look at me without saying a word, I'm scared."

"Okay, I will go to the construction site with my brother tomorrow." Brother Shen was not polite. Once the goal was achieved, he patted his butt and left.

The next day, Yan Bao wore a neat dress and a safety helmet and arrived at the construction site of the power station. It was now almost the same as a few months ago.

There were originally five months of work, but the emperor's words reduced it to one month.

It's no wonder that Brother Shen came to see Yan Bao. He knew Yan Bao's ability. If there was any problem, he would definitely be able to predict it.

Sure enough, when Yan Bao went to the construction site, she found several things that were wrong. She also predicted that a worker was almost thrown to death and asked her to save him with just one sentence.

Brother Shen took Yan Bao around a few times with a small notebook. The hidden dangers were basically solved, and Brother Shen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Yan Bao also didn't expect that a power station could have so many things going on.

Fortunately, as long as there are enough people, it is not impossible to complete it in a month.

In order to save time, the power station was built and the antenna was set up at the same time.

The emperor also established an electric power bureau based on Shen Shoufu's suggestion, and people under Shen Shoufu were appointed.

When Yan Bao left his house, he saw many busy figures on both sides of the road, as well as tall logs, which were telephone poles.

Productivity is limited and only wooden telegraph poles can be used.

The emperor had previously adopted Yanbao's power supply policy, and many people responded. Those with some money in the capital signed up and paid, and now began to install electricity meters in their houses.

The project is not small. Except for the people from the Ministry of Industry who are responsible for the palace, other people from the Electricity Bureau are responsible for the residences of princes and ministers.

Yan Bao's Princess Mansion also signed up.

Yanbao likes to make the room brighter, so he installed a lot of lights.

Knowing that with electricity, light bulbs would definitely sell well, Yanbao had already installed a batch of new Chinese-style lamps for the glass factory, instead of crystal chandeliers, which were too beautiful and did not fit in with the antique courtyard.

All the designed lamps have antique elements.

Especially nice.

It also sold very well.

Yanbao specially opened a lighting store. Before the electricity was turned on, many people made reservations in the store, and all kinds of lamps were sold out.

The emperor also gave Yanbao a list of light bulbs in the palace, giving her full authority to design them. Yanbao used his imagination to design many atmospheric and beautiful lamps.

Especially the lamps in the main hall are so colorful that once the lights are turned on, they don’t know how to shine.

Many people watched as the princes and ministers pulled out the wires, and some wealthy businessmen also followed suit.

Anyway, most of the shops facing the street have wires. Although they are not cheap, if others have them, they can't live without them.

After about a month of busy work, three days before the emperor's birthday, Brother Shen began the power test ceremony.

The emperor, Xie Zhiluo, and other civil and military ministers all went.

Looking at the power station in front of them that they couldn't understand at all, some people expected the power to be generated successfully.

Others hope that the power generation will fail.

After spending so much manpower, material and financial resources, if it failed, the Shen family would probably fall out of favor.

How could Yan Bao miss such an important day?

Brother Shen was a little nervous and excited, and almost fell down when he went out.

Yan Bao was funny: "Brother, don't worry. There was no problem in the internal test before, and there will definitely be nothing wrong with it now, as long as you don't connect the wrong line."

Yan Bao muttered in his heart: [My elder brother was so nervous that he connected a wrong wire. Everyone thought the power station was a joke, and some even laughed at my father. 】

[I am reminding you now. My elder brother will check it again and eliminate the problem. He will definitely be able to successfully generate electricity in one go. 】

Brother Shen, who listened to his voice, went to the power station and checked it carefully. He was confident at first, but he found a problem, which scared the person in charge half to death.

Brother Shen asked him to reconnect the cables and scolded the careless one.

As for the punishment, it means the reward is cancelled.

The man was so grateful that if he had a different boss, he would probably be kicked out of the Electricity Bureau and would have to face a lot of punishment before he could be trusted.

After the inspection was almost completed, the emperor gave an order: "Start generating electricity."

After Brother Shen heard this, he pulled the switch.

As the machine operated, the ground shook, and the light bulb in front of him suddenly lit up.

The lights in the palace, the princess's mansion, the Shen family, and the homes of other princes and ministers were all on.

In the dark night, the entire capital city lit up in an instant.

Even the lights at the four main city gates were on.

It directly illuminated the entire capital.

Looking at the lighted bulb, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then cheered: "It's on, it's on!"

"light is on!"

"It's so bright, much brighter than candles and oil lamps!"

Some people squinted due to the brightness of the light bulbs.

Shen Shentian and her three siblings clapped their hands happily and shouted, "Daddy is so awesome, this is the electricity generated by daddy!"

The emperor stood on the highest platform of the power station, looking at the bright lights of the capital, his eyes bright: "It's a miracle. I didn't expect that electricity can really be generated. The capital now is so beautiful!"

Yan Bao knows how to compliment: "It's all thanks to the Emperor. If His Majesty, the wise and mighty Emperor, hadn't ordered the construction of a power station, how could we have seen such a beautiful capital?"

"Long live the Emperor!" As soon as Yan Bao spoke, everyone present knelt down and congratulated: "Long live the Emperor!"

The emperor looked at the people kneeling on the ground and smiled happily.

He is indeed wise. Under his governance, he built railways and power stations, and his reputation will definitely last forever.

Thinking of this, the emperor's heart beat faster.

Seeing that the excited emperor was about to collapse, Yan Bao immediately stuffed a few pills into the emperor's mouth: "Your Majesty, take a deep breath, don't get excited!"

[Oh my god, luckily I was prepared, otherwise the emperor would have died! 】

Shen Shoufu: "???"

It’s not like no one got excited and fell down but didn’t get up.

Does the emperor want me to retire and return home?

Xie Zhiluo also didn't expect that his father would be so excited that he almost died.

Fortunately, Yan Bao prepared a quick-acting Jiuxin Pill, otherwise he would have become emperor in advance.

After the emperor took the pill, he seemed to be alive. For a moment, the emperor thought he was going to die.

After he recovered, the emperor asked: "What's wrong with me?"

Yan Bao was speechless: "Your Majesty, you are so happy, you almost..."

Needless to say, Yan Baoming also knew that the emperor almost died.

The emperor said with lingering fear: "When did you give me the medicine? It's so effective, I have to prepare some."

Yan Bao presented it with both hands: "Quick-acting Jiuxin Pills are a good thing. Your Majesty, it's best to prepare some. If you are emotional, take one to slow down. It is very effective!"

Others listened and secretly asked if there was any more. They also wanted to prepare some.

Lest you be too happy one day and almost die like the emperor.
