Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 1070

[Chapter 1070 Sensation]

“Hahaha, it’s really bright, it’s too bright. After today, I’ll be very comfortable studying at night.” While the

old man was feeling emotional, a young man ran out of the yard, shaking the paper fan in his hand, and let out a loud voice laughing out loud.

In the evening, every household in Yancheng was waiting for the incandescent lights on the roof to light up.

Waiting from dusk to night, until every family lit candles and oil lamps.

He was the same, just as he was anxiously waiting, the incandescent lamp in his study suddenly turned on.

In an instant, the light of incandescent lamps covered the entire study room, making the candles lit in the room so inconspicuous.

Picking up a book is really like flipping through it in the shade of a tree during the day.

Excited, he couldn’t help but rushed out. . .

At this time, looking around, there are really thousands of lights.

Along the folk lanes, bright lights shine through the windows of every house.

In addition, the street lights on the street are also on.

The otherwise dark streets were unobstructed.

Each bright street lamp can illuminate dozens of meters, and many light-loving bugs are like bees discovering flowers, flying up and down around the street lamp.

Looking at these exciting scenes, the scholar secretly encouraged himself.

He is a student of the College of Science and Technology of Yanzhou University.

Like the wishes of many students, his goal is to join the research institute, directly participate in various research and development projects, and contribute to the development of Dasong.

As he was thinking, more and more neighbors came out of their homes.

After the home is powered on and the incandescent lights are on, everyone is excited.

They were all smiling and discussing enthusiastically.

“The days are really looking forward to more and more.”

“Yes, the emperor is really a fairy-like figure. Railways, steamships, and now there are thermal power plants. Now I just want to live longer and learn more.”

“I hope the emperor can live long, long live , so that our children and grandchildren’s life will not be worrying.”

“Hahaha…” The

alley was immediately filled with joyful laughter, and the scholar couldn’t help joining the discussion, chatting and laughing with everyone.

However, there are also some shrewd small traders who immediately saw business opportunities.

After busy preparations, he pushed his own goods onto the main street and started selling them under the street lamps.

Their yelling immediately attracted many urchins.

At present, there is no great praise from the powerful family, and everyone is relying on their own efforts to make life more and more prosperous.

While the people were discussing enthusiastically, the ministers came back from the thermal power plant.

Many of them went to the thermal power plant this time by bicycle.

Back in Yancheng, they got out of the car and pushed their bicycles forward.

At this time, they couldn’t bear to miss the strange scene at the moment.

“It’s great, the whole Yancheng is lit up.” Liu Fu stood in the middle of the street, looking towards the end of the road.

The street lights on both sides extend to a long distance.

The whole street is brightly lit.

The shops on both sides of the main street are also brightly lit.

“I never expected to see such a scene in Yancheng one day.” Yang Feng couldn’t help but sighed softly.

More than ten years ago, this Yancheng was still a barren land, and Jinling was the center of the Great Song.

But now, the ten Jinlings are not as prosperous as Yancheng.

According to Liu Fu, the current population of Yancheng has exceeded 3 million, and the population of Yancheng before was only about 300,000, an increase of ten times.

The other ministers also thought the same way.

At this moment they are reluctant to speak much, because no words can truly describe their mood at the moment.

Admiring the lights all the way along the street, they are eager to get home and want to see their own lights.

When the ministers went back, Zhao Xu’s dragon chariot also arrived at the Wuji Palace.

Zhao Xu did not go with the ministers, but returned to the palace through the north gate.

“Your Majesty, look.” Entering the palace, Xiao Guizi pointed to the shining street lamps on both sides of the corridor and smiled broadly.

At present, the entire Promise Palace is lit up.

The court ladies and eunuchs shuttled under the lights, their figures clear.

This scene made the corners of Zhao Xu’s lips twitch.

The changes brought by the second industrial revolution to Dasong have just begun.

Lighting is only a small part of the application of electricity.

After Yancheng is electrified tonight, electricity will be applied in more ways.

Along the corridor, Zhao Xu first went to the Yizheng Hall.

At this moment, the political hall was pitch black, Xiao Guizi immediately ran to turn on the switch, and the hall was lit up immediately.

After admiring the Yizheng Hall under the lights for a while, Zhao Xu signaled Xiao Guizi to turn off the lights, and then went to other halls.

After that, he went to Yang Susu’s Palace of Yanxi Palace.

At this time, both Feng’er and Luan’er were in Yanxi Palace.

The three looked excited, talking and laughing while pointing at the incandescent lights on the roof.

Unlike other incandescent lamps, for the sake of beauty, the incandescent lamps in the palace are all equipped with exquisite lampshades.

This makes the incandescent lamp look very elegant.

“Your Majesty, come and see.” Seeing Zhao Xu approaching, Yang Susu immediately dragged Zhao Xu into the room.

Apparently, the light brought by the electricity made the Great Song Queen unable to calm down.

Having experienced the light of an electric lamp, no one can deny it again.

Zhao Xu smiled and followed Yang Susu into the house.

Because of the magic of electric lights, the three of them seemed to be interested in electricity, and each of them became a curious baby, asking one question after another.

Zhao Xu spoke dryly, and the three of them were satisfied, and then chatted about what power products the workshop would produce in the future.

When the people of Yancheng were sleepless all night because of the electrification.

Others are also doomed to sleeplessness.

These are the students studying abroad in Dasong from various vassal states.

After learning that Da Song held a power-on ceremony today, they gathered at the consulates of their respective countries, waiting for this moment to come.

After the electricity was turned on, the lights of their consulate also turned on synchronously, illuminating the entire consulate.

At the moment when the incandescent lights were turned on, all these overseas students let out an exclamation, followed by a long silence, followed by heated discussions.

“This is Dasong, an extremely powerful Dasong. When we couldn’t even build a steam engine, they had already used electricity. It’s unbelievable, it’s simply unbelievable. This thing doesn’t even exist in the West.” Goryeo Consulate , Crown Prince Goryeo looked excited.

Although they don’t deal with the Japanese people, there will be exchanges.

The Dongying people once sent envoys to study in the West.

They know more about Xitu than they do. According to these Dongying people, the steam industry of Xitu people is very large, but there is absolutely no such thing as electricity.

Now, Yancheng officially supplies power, which means that Dasong has more advanced technology than Xitu. This is also the moment when Dasong officially surpasses Xitu, and it is also the moment when the image of the world of Xitu collapses in their hearts.

From now on, their suzerain country – Dasong, will be the object worthy of their admiration.
