Chapter 373: This Is a Miracle

The language of the Jack Guild was very limited, and it took a lot of effort to hire a carriage, on which the four of them rode towards the capital.

By this time it was not far from dark, and the people were able to enter the city before the gates were closed.

Jack was very familiar with the capital, and took Adrian to an inn and checked in with great effort.

By this time it was almost dark.

A few people were about to go back to their rooms to rest, when the originally dimly lit hall suddenly lit up, and Adri looked at the electric light hanging in the middle of the hall.

The next moment, he froze.

It took three breaths before he exclaimed.

"Oh ma-g, what is this, why is it so bright?! It's a miracle! ”

Adrian looked shocked.

He looked closely at the glowing things, no lamp oil, no candles, and they were glowing in a way that subverted his perception.

He couldn't figure out how this was done.

He couldn't think of anything but miracles.

He even wondered if the God of the Holy See was real.

If it is true, why does such a magical thing not exist in the Western world?

Colordy and Monila were also shocked.

"Oh my God, maybe this is really a miracle, it's unbelievable!"

Monila even slapped herself in the face, and said with a shocked expression: "No, it's true, I'm not dreaming!" ”

Adrian looked at Jack, "Why haven't you told Benjamin about such a magical thing?" ”

Jack also looked incredulous: "The last time Benjamin and I came, there was no such thing, they must have just made it!" ”

At this time, there were many people in the lobby of the inn, and when they saw their startled appearance, they couldn't help laughing.

"Look at these Fanbang people, I really haven't seen the world."

"You can pull it down, the first time you saw the electric light was not like this?"

"Don't say it, we've seen too many magical existences of His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes, and the first time we saw the electric light, it was really not as unproductive as them."

"Haha, that's right, after these Fanbang people go back, they will have the capital to brag in front of their relatives and friends."

Adrian couldn't see the ridicule and ridicule of everyone, how noble his status was, when had he been treated like this, he couldn't help but feel a burst of annoyance in his heart, and his expression was a little cold.

But he couldn't do it.

These things that do not exist in the West really shocked him deeply.

Colordy and Monila were also displeased.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Jack hurriedly said: "Lord Bishop, don't you dare to do it here, the artillery of Daqian is terrible, and even the mountain can be exploded!" ”

"Humph!"

Adrian snorted coldly and didn't speak, and walked upstairs.

Colori and Monila gave them a cold look and followed.

The surrounding people laughed again.

"Haha, these Fanbang people seem to be angry."

"It must have seen that we were mocking them."

"Speaking of which, His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes is really amazing, until now I can't figure out how the hydropower station generates electricity, what electricity is, and why it emits light."

"What do you want to do so much? If it works, it's OK! ”

"What do you want to do so much? If it works, it's OK! ”

"Is this something that anyone can afford? A lamp costs five taels of silver, a zhang of wire costs two taels of silver, and a lamp has to pay five taels of silver for electricity every month, anyway, I can't afford it. ”

"Normally, it cost millions of taels of silver to build a hydropower station, copper wires were used along the way, and there were so many electric poles, and the money spent was a sea of money."

"It's quite expensive, but I heard that His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes will build a larger hydropower station in the future, and the price may be reduced when there is no shortage of electricity."

"I hope so!"

……

At the same time, Li Changfeng checked the account books sent by the Ministry of Electric Power at the mansion.

After the establishment of this department, Li Changfeng became a minister.

Although nominally the Ministry of Electric Power belongs to the state, because all the technology and equipment are provided by Li Changfeng, Li Changfeng has already negotiated with Emperor Qianwu, and he will charge three taels of silver per month for each lamp.

At the beginning, in order to clarify the patent royalties with Emperor Qianwu, Li Changfeng wasted a lot of tongues.

In fact, it is better to extract profits from electricity meters more intuitively, but he really can't make electricity meters now, and he doesn't want people from the research institute to spend energy on building this thing in a short period of time.

So this is the only way to go.

He didn't worry about the people in the Ministry of Electricity making false accounts, because he made all the lights, and he could earn an extra three taels of silver for each lamp, and he could also earn half for the wires.

Today is the third day after the electricity is supplied.

On this day, a total of 200 lamps were installed, and more than 500 zhang of wires were used.

Although he earned little, Li Changfeng was very satisfied.

You know, these will bring him a lot of profits every month in the future, and as the base increases, the profits will become more and more amazing!

At this stage, Li Changfeng has no way to make ordinary people in Daqian use electric lights, because this small hydropower station simply cannot meet such a large demand.

He set such a high price in order to harvest a wave of magnates in the capital.

Later, after Daqian developed and built more and larger hydropower stations with enough electricity, he would gradually reduce the price of electricity so that everyone could afford it.

It takes a process, like the refined salt of the year.

"Now that electricity is up, the nightlife will be richer in the future, and the curfew policy should be lifted." Li Changfeng thought to himself.

A curfew was imposed, and no one was allowed to walk on the streets after dark, and people were not allowed to move on the streets until after the fifth watch.

In Li Changfeng's opinion, it is completely unnecessary.

Nowadays, the life of the people is getting better and better, and the possibility of breeding trouble is very small.

In addition, some of the night patrol soldiers now ride bicycles and even motorcycles, which are highly efficient and deterrent, and the small ones do not dare to do anything wrong.

So, it's time to develop the night economy.

Early in the morning of the second day, as soon as it was dawn, Li Changfeng rode a motorcycle to find Emperor Qianwu.

On the other hand, Adrian also got up early, washed up carefully, put on the most solemn clothes, and went to Dude to enjoy food at Jack's recommendation.

After he was ready to enjoy the perfect meal, he went to the palace to meet Emperor Qianwu.

There is no faster way to proselytize than to convince the emperor of a country.

Moreover, once Emperor Qianwu became his faithful believer, everything in Daqian was not what he wanted, and he took whatever he wanted?

Thinking of his plan, Adrian's mood of being bored by the huge gap between the West and the Great Cadres gradually became better.

At the gate of Diandude, he saw several Fanbang beauties welcoming guests.

With Adrian's identity, he would definitely not care if he saw such a lowly woman before.

But seeing people of the same skin color as himself in a foreign country, Adrian couldn't help but feel a little excited.
