Chapter 5: The Old Patriarch
Time passes. Just when Zhang Dashun was flustered and suffering from gains and losses, the old raft, accompanied by the housekeeper, appeared not far from the old house.
"What the hell is this little guy going to make trouble, it's dark this day, why hasn't he shown up?" Seeing that the sky was getting dark, the villagers in front of the old house gathered more and more, but the door of the old house was still closed, and the old patriarch's brows furrowed.
Yes, the old patriarch has traveled from south to north to see the market. He knew very well how difficult it would be to control such a crowd gathering. Not to mention that it's dark now. If one is not well controlled, it will be a catastrophe, and it is no wonder that he will be dissatisfied.
"Master, why don't I send someone to ask?" the butler stepped forward at the right time.
"By the way, I'll get some more people from home. The old patriarch nodded noncommittally, and then added.
"Yes, sir. “
......
"Big brother, the old patriarch is here. It's time for us to get out. "I know that the old patriarch has arrived, but Zhang Yi is still busy playing with an iron lump. Zhang Ergou finally couldn't help it, he stiffened his head and reminded in a low voice.
Yes, Zhang Ergou is from Xiaozhang Village after all, and compared to Zhang Yi, he knows the power and status of the old patriarch in Xiaozhang Village better. Let's ask, in the face of such a character, how dare he slack off?
"Oh, I didn't realize it was almost seven o'clock. In this way, Ergou, you go and greet first, I'm also going to be fast here, and I'll come when I'm done. Hearing this, Zhang Yi subconsciously looked at his watch and found that the hands on the watch were about to point to seven o'clock. I couldn't help but blush slightly. Yes, how can I say that he is also a person with modern higher education, and he is actually embarrassed by simple wiring, can he not blush?
"This, big brother, it's not appropriate for me to go and say hello. When Zhang Ergou heard this, he was instantly dumbfounded.
Also, what is the identity of the old patriarch, that is the existence he once looked up to, how can he have the confidence to greet him?
"There's nothing wrong with it, that's all, don't watch me busy. Zhang Yi waved his hand and began to continue to work.
After tea time.
"Brother Yi, the old patriarch asked us if we could put the time of this recruitment tomorrow morning, saying that it is getting dark now, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to control if something happens. Without caring about wiping the fine beads of sweat on his forehead, Zhang Ergou began to relay the old patriarch's request.
"Haha, it's okay, it's fine. Haha, wait a minute, don't pee your pants in fear......" It was at this moment that Zhang Yi finally got the wiring of the generator. Hearing Zhang Ergou's retelling, he was immediately happy.
Lighting from 400 years later, and it's the kind of little sun used in engineering. He was looking forward to seeing how these Ming Dynasty natives would react. Can he not be happy when he thinks of the wonders?
"Brother Yi, this, is this thing really as amazing as you say?" Zhang Ergou God swallowed.
Zhang Ergou believes in Zhang Yi very much, however, turning night into day makes people feel unreal when they think about it.
"Well, voila. Zhang Yi smiled, and then started the generator.
The motor sounded softly. At the same time, the dozen or so incandescent lamps outside the courtyard that had been arranged by Zhang Yi in advance emitted a dazzling light.
"This, how is this possible? Could it be that he is an immortal?" However, such a spectacle has exceeded his imagination. Yes, he was stunned. He even let out an exclamation unconsciously.
"Upside down, this, this, oh my. On the other hand, the butler's body trembled unconsciously.
Yes, as the old patriarch's dogleg, he is ruthless and courageous. However, he also had a sense of awe. In front of an immortal who had such a means to change the world, could he not be afraid? After all, not long ago, he was planning how to deal with Zhang Yi.
The well-informed old patriarch and the ruthless housekeeper all reacted so much, not to mention these ordinary Xiaozhang villagers.
As the light of the incandescent lamp pierced the night, the scene that was chaotic and noisy just now had already been heard. Even the crying and frolicking children unconsciously shut their mouths. As for those who have a bad heart, have done bad things and have ghosts in their hearts, they can't bear it anymore at this moment, and they start to incontinence.
Just then, the door of the old house opened.
"Don't be too nervous, it's just a tool for lighting, it's no different from the candle you guys usually use. Looking at the scene outside the courtyard as if frozen by time, Rao is Zhang Yi already had the psychological expectation that the villagers would be deeply shocked, and at this time, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded by this effect.
"Xian, Brother Yi'er, is this really just a candle used for lighting?" The so-called people and spirits, ghosts and spirits, after all, they have eaten for decades, and soon, the old patriarch regained his composure. Of course, at this time, he didn't dare to claim to be big anymore.
"Patriarch, this is the candle used for lighting. It's just that the fuel it uses is different from that of a regular candle. Zhang Yi nodded affirmatively.
"Oh, what kind of fuel is that?" the old patriarch's eyes lit up.
"Electricity, well, everyone has seen thunder, the reason why my incandescent lamp is so bright is because of this thunder and lightning. Zhang Yi paused slightly when he heard this, scratched his head, but didn't know how to explain it to everyone, and in the end, he had to rely on the well-known thunder and lightning at this time.
But he didn't want to, but his explanation made the people in Xiaozhang Village more affirm his identity as an immortal. You know, in this era, thunder and lightning represent the heavens. Zhang Yi can subdue thunder and lightning for lighting, isn't this an immortal?
