Hand over the jade seal first [Infrastructure]

After hearing this, Xiao Zirong was immediately elated. He didn't care about the official system or not. Anyway, Xiao Xuan and Xiao Xuexing had already seen it. They knew what to do, and he didn't want to care about the rest.

What could be more important than his lamp?

Xiao Zirong happily ran out to look around. The glazed lamps under the eaves were changed, the corridor lights on both sides of the road were changed, and even the lights in the house were changed.

For this reason, Xiao Xuan specially asked someone to come over and ask Xiao Zirong what he was messing with, and suddenly a group of people came in and started to tie the knot and install the glazed lamp.

Xiao Zirong took a look after being called by Xiao Xuan, and heard Xiao Xuan say: "What kind of glazed lamp is used in the room, it's so high, it's not good."

Xiao Zirong looked around, because the room was relatively large, so it was not enough to place only one lamp in the center, so he simply bought a few more glazed lamps, and forcibly pieced together a flower shape with the glazed lamps.

Xiao Zirong looked up and nodded in satisfaction, "You don't need to order this."

Xiao Xuan was a little confused: "Huh?"

Xiao Zirong took a look at the sky outside and found that it was indeed getting dark, so he said, "Come on, come out and have a look."

Although the lights in the house are also beautiful, how can they compare to the brilliance in the yard?

After Xiao Xuan and Xiao Ji followed Xiao Zirong out, Xiao Zirong turned to Liu Cainiang and asked, "Are you all ready?"

Liu Cainiang lowered her head and said, "Everything is ready."

Seeing her, Xiao Zirong seemed a little shy, and swallowed what he was about to say. He knew that Liu Cainiang was inferior to his own eyes.

He waved his hand directly and said, "Okay, turn on the switch!"

Because there are many lights, there are many switches to control these lights. It is impossible to assign a person to be responsible for turning on each of them, so the switches are turned on in sequence, and the lights are also turned on wave by wave, just like a piece of slowly lighting up. Sea of ​​lights.

After all the switches were turned on, the entire City Lord's Mansion was as bright as daylight for a moment.

Xiao Xuan looked around in astonishment, and was a little surprised when he saw the electric light on the tree trunk: "This...won't it catch fire?"

Xiao Zirong smiled and said, "Uncle, don't worry, these lamps are not powered by fire, but by electricity."

Xiao Xuan remembered the bamboo thread that had been lit for a very short time, turned to look at Xiao Zirong and asked, "Is this similar to the bamboo thread you got before?"

Xiao Zirong nodded and said, "Yes, with a different material, it can last longer."

Xiao Xuan nodded, looked at the lights all over the yard, and said happily, "This is beautiful."

Xiao Zirong chuckled, at this moment, all the ministers attending the banquet also entered the City Lord's Mansion.

The moment they stepped into the City Lord's Mansion, everyone's footsteps paused, and the expressions on their faces were very surprised.

In fact, when they came, they had already seen that the gate of the city lord's mansion seemed very bright today.

It's just that they didn't worry about it at the time, and said casually: "Today, King Xuancheng lit some more lights."

It turned out that the brightness outside was far less than that inside the yard.

Especially under the background of the lights, the flowers and trees present a completely different beauty from the daytime.

There are also glazed lamps with patterns. After all, the brightness of electric lamps is higher than that of oil lamps, which makes the paintings on glazed lamps more dazzling.

When they saw the electric lights and glazed lamps on the tree, everyone also expressed the same astonishment as Xiao Xuan.

After chatting in twos and threes, Chai He couldn't wait to ask: "Your Highness Xuancheng, this lamp seems to be a little different from the usual one?"

Xiao Zirong didn't hold back: "Indeed, this is an electric light."

Electricity?

Those who didn't know what Xiao Zirong was tossing about these days subconsciously looked at the sky.

There are no clouds in the sky, the moon and stars are sparse, where does the thunder and lightning come from?

Hearing their doubts, Xiao Zirong laughed and said: "It's not thunder and lightning, it's electricity. I made the electricity myself. You think thunder and lightning can illuminate the night sky, so it's normal to be able to illuminate, right?"

Made it yourself?

The expressions on everyone's faces were very curious, Xiao Zirong waved his hand and said: "Everyone, go to the table first, I'll show you later."

Everyone entered the table with some curiosity and amazement. The inside of the room is naturally brighter than the outside, but the light is not dazzling.

After taking the seats, many people couldn't even attract them with the delicious dishes, and they all looked up at those glazed lanterns, and they couldn't help looking at those glazed lanterns for a long time.

Xiao Zirong didn't care about them, and was happy to eat by himself.

After eating almost, Xiao Ji couldn't help asking: "Ru'er, what did you just say you wanted to show us?"

Xiao Zirong swallowed the fruit tea in his mouth, and clapped his hands directly.

Soon someone came up carrying a wooden box with a handle, and two wires extended from the wooden box.

Xiao Zirong raised his chin slightly, and then a servant started to shake his hand, and another servant was holding two wires with cloth gloves.

He said with a smile: "Come on, I will prove to you gentlemen that there is indeed electricity."

The person who was holding the two wires immediately raised his arms, and then slightly touched the two wires, and sparks flew out instantly.

The flickering light was like a small lightning. Many people were startled and subconsciously leaned back before realizing that this "lightning" was too small to pose any threat to them.

All of a sudden everyone looked at the wooden box with some curiosity, not knowing what was inside, how could it create lightning?

Of course Xiao Zirong wouldn't show them what's inside, even if these people couldn't figure it out, it wouldn't work, after all, he still wanted to make money from it!

Yes, it is to make money, otherwise why is he inviting everyone to dinner?

How could it be possible to have a show even after eating?

Xiao Zirong had people make "thunder and lightning" twice, and then asked them to take out the glazed lamp, and after connecting the wires to the glazed lamp, the glazed lamp immediately lit up.

No oil or fire was used in the whole process. Several people couldn't sit still and ran over to look inside the glazed lamp, and then saw the round bulb.

They stretched out their hands to touch it in some surprise, but they took it back after just touching it, and then said in some surprise, "It's still a little hot."

Xiao Zirong immediately explained: "This electric light also emits heat, and the longer it is on, the hotter it will become, but don't worry, even if it is hot, there will be no problem, as long as it does not break, there is no danger."

Xiao Yan already understood his tricks, and immediately asked, "Can your highness sell this glazed lamp?"

Xiao Zirong was in a bit of a dilemma: "I just let people demonstrate this to see everyone's curiosity. I'm afraid it's not easy to sell. You have also seen that the box needs to generate electricity, and then the glazed lamp can be turned on. There is no generator. .”

Xiao Yan said very politely: "Then I don't know if His Highness can ask someone to install a generator for my mansion."

Xiao Zirong asked: "Does the prime minister want electric lights installed inside the mansion? That would cost a lot of money."

Xiao Yan hesitated after hearing this, at this time the person Xiao Zirong sent to demonstrate just turned the glazed lamp in one direction, and facing Xiao Yan's direction was a picture of Buddha.

Against the background of the lights, the Buddha looks even more dazzling, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes.

After subconsciously taking a look, Xiao Yan liked it even more in his heart, gritted his teeth and said, "Can we discuss this matter again?"

It's a bit difficult for him to make up his mind on such an occasion. If it's private, he can discuss it if it becomes expensive. In such a public place...he still wants to save face.

Xiao Zirong nodded and was about to say something, when Xiao Xuexing said, "I'm afraid that Rong'er has never thought about this problem before, why not... Later, Rong'er thinks about a price and directly sets the price of the generator. The price is calculated separately, and the price is calculated separately according to the area of ​​the mansion and the number of glazed lamps."

Xiao Zirong slapped his hands and said, "That's good, Prime Minister, wait for me for two days, I will let the people below do the calculations, and then I will quote you a price."

After hearing this, Xiao Yan agreed happily.

He agreed to be so forthright because the price was relatively open and transparent, that is to say, if he paid this price, others would also pay this price if they wanted to buy it, and there would be no phenomenon that Xiao Zirong deliberately cheated him.

He thought so and others thought the same way, so after Xiao Yan, there were still many people scrambling to get Xiao Zirong to give them an offer.

Of course, Xiao Zirong never refuses anyone who comes, isn't it just to make money that he has been tossing around for so long.

After the banquet was over, Xiao Zirong and Xiao Xuexing began to calculate the appropriate amount of money on the way back.

Xiao Xuexing listened to this little money fan talking back and forth, pinched the back of his neck helplessly and said, "I don't want you to eat and wear, right? Why are you so happy to sell something?"

In fact, in Xiao Zirong's capacity, doing such a thing is a bit cheap, but he is very calm, and he discusses business with people openly without hiding it, and on the contrary, everyone calms down.

And the things Xiao Zirong sells are not ordinary things, there is no other place except his place.

Xiao Zirong said happily: "If you have money, you don't think you have too much money. My brother has to support so many people."

Xiao Xuexing: ...

#My younger brother is worried every day that I can’t afford soldiers#

Xiao Xuexing was a little helpless, just as he was about to say something, he saw Xiao Zirong suddenly turned his head to look at him and asked, "Brother, do you want to renovate your palace as well? Don't worry, I will definitely make it look better for you in time, or if you want I'll give you whatever you want."

Xiao Xuexing shook his head and said, "No need."

His younger brother put a lot of effort into this electric light, and now it is made for making money, and he doesn't need to be so good, it doesn't matter.

Xiao Zirong looked at him with some confusion: "What's wrong? Isn't this pretty?"

He looked around and felt that it was not as good-looking as those neon lights of later generations.

Seeing him frowning, Xiao Xuexing worried that he might misunderstand: "It's very beautiful, enough to compete with the sun and the moon."

When Xiao Zirong heard him say the word sun and moon, he subconsciously looked up at the moon in the sky, and suddenly remembered the previous joke about not being able to pick off the moon, and he suddenly felt... maybe... he could also give it to his brother a moon.
