Become a feudal king from today

The sun goes from bright to dim.

Evening comes.

Zhao Xu arrived at the gate of Yancheng Thermal Power Plant on time with the cabinet ministers, defense department generals and other important court officials.

At this time, the place was decorated extremely gorgeously.

The front door of the power plant was filled with flowers on both sides, and the ground was covered with a red carpet.

A red brocade belt sealed the door, with big red flowers tied up in the middle of the brocade belt.

Wang Chong, Li Wei and other R\u0026D institute personnel were already waiting in front of the door.

Seeing Zhao Xu, the two men immediately stepped forward, led Zhao Xu to the door of the thermal power plant, and raised the red ribbon to let Zhao Xu pass. .

The cabinet ministers also passed through one by one and lined up beside Zhao Xu.

Other ministers stood outside the door, waiting for Zhao Xu to cut the ribbon for the thermal power plant.

"Why are the people not interested in such an important day?" Liu Fu asked as he stood next to Zhao Xu.

He looked ahead and saw not many people gathered.

"You're confused. The people are all waiting at home for the lights to come on, so there's no time to come here to join in the fun." Zhao Xu said with a smile.

Liu Fu was startled for a moment, then laughed dumbly, "The emperor is right, I am really confused. In this case, why not cut the ribbon early so that the people can get what they want. I also want to go home and see the lights turn on."

Mi Yan stood on the right side of Liu Fu and said, "Liu Shoufu is really confused. The emperor has a banquet in Wuji Palace tonight. Can you go back without getting drunk?"

After his words fell, Zhu Tuo, Ma Yuan and others all laughed.

Liu Fu slapped his head and laughed at himself, "Look at my brain, I can only say that this matter is so exciting that I can't even turn around."

Zhao Xu smiled softly, Liu Fu and other ministers followed him step by step.

They witnessed the steam industry first hand.

I have a profound memory of the changes brought to Yancheng by the steam industry.

Today, an electric power industry more powerful than the steam industry was born.

To say they were not excited was impossible at that time.

After all, the steam industry alone allowed them to rely on Yanzhou to level the powerful clans, defeat Beidi, and now still have an advantage in the war with the Western Turks.

If the steam industry is transformed into the electric power industry, wouldn't the future great songs be even more soaring into the sky, creating a prosperous age that they dare not even imagine?

And as participants in forging this prosperous era, they will definitely leave a strong mark in the history books.

Of course, they don't just care about these false names.

What they want more is to experience this era and see with their own eyes how powerful Da Song can be.

"Even if the people are anxious, you are also anxious, so don't waste time and cut the ribbon immediately." Zhao Xu said with a smile at this time.

Everyone will laugh heartily when they hear this.

In fact, the ribbon cutting is just a symbolic ceremony.

But this etiquette must be done, otherwise it will appear too deserted.

After all, even if people move to a new home, there is still excitement in having children.

So, now that you’ve done it, just give it a symbolic cut to get some luck.

After Zhao Xu said this, Wang Chong immediately asked someone to bring scissors.

Everyone stood up in order, took the scissors, and placed the blades on the ribbon.

Zhao Heng is in the middle, Zhao Xu is beside Zhao Heng, and other ministers are beside them.

At this moment, Li Wei lit the firecrackers himself, which exploded loudly.

Then, amid the sound of firecrackers, everyone cut the ribbons together.

The ministers and people who were watching suddenly burst into cheers.

But then they looked towards the thermal power plant, waiting for power to be delivered.

Obviously, everyone's attention is not on the ribbon cutting, but on Yancheng's lights up.

"Li Wei, it's up to you next time." Zhao Xu was in the same mood as the others.

Looking at Li Wei, his eyes were full of expectation.

He missed electricity too much, after all, he came from an era when electricity was widely used.

Naturally, he knows more about the application of electricity than anyone else.

"Your Majesty, please wait a moment, Yancheng will be illuminated soon." Li Wei looked confident.

At this time, the sky became darker and darker, like diluted ink.

After saying these words, Li Wei entered the thermal power plant.

The thermal power plant was already in operation before the ribbon was cut.

Coal is burning in the boiler, heating water into steam.

When he arrived at the power distribution room of the thermal power plant, the steam produced by the boiler was enough to drive the steam engine.

These steam engines in turn drove generators to generate electricity.

At the same time, the power plant's twenty-four generating units were running.

These generating units are not temporary small generating units in workshops, but are composed of large steam engines and generators.

When the power plant technician in charge of the generating unit reported to him that everything was running normally in the club, he ordered the isolation switch between the thermal power plant and the power grid to be closed.

As long as the switch is closed, the power from the power plant can be transmitted through the power grid they established during this period, and Yancheng will officially be powered on.

At his order, the technician who was already waiting near the isolation switch closed the switch.

For a moment, the lightning flashed, and then Yancheng to the east of the power plant lit up.

Looking from the power plant, Yancheng is no longer pitch black, but has a yellow-orange background color.

It was like there was a fire burning in the city.

"It's bright, it's bright!"

The moment the isolation switch was closed, the ministers in front of the power plant cheered.

Many people stretched their heads and looked at Yancheng, which is more than ten miles away from the power plant.

They can't wait to return home to Yancheng and experience the light brought by electricity.

Seeing how excited the ministers were, Zhao Xu suddenly said, "That's it. We can have this celebration banquet another day. You all can go back and experience it."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Liu Fu and other ministers were immediately overjoyed.

Zhao Xu stopped caring about them and went straight to Yancheng.

He also wanted to see what Wuji Palace looked like now.

When Zhao Xu returned to Yancheng, the entire Yancheng had turned into a sea of ​​joy.

The whole city was filled with the people's cries of "light up, light up."

The urchins jumped and screamed at home, running from one house to another, sharing their joy.

When adults first looked at incandescent lights at home, they were shocked.

They had relied on candles and oil lamps since ancient times. For the first time, they saw incandescent lamps that could illuminate the house like daylight.

You can imagine how novel they are.

Afterwards, they couldn't help but go out to the street and have lively discussions with the neighbors, their excitement was palpable.

"It's amazing. Is this electricity? If I can see this thing in my life, I will die in peace." An old man had tears in his eyes.

Over seventy years old, he suffered too much in Yanzhou before coming to Yanzhou.

After King Yan came, they first had land and had enough food and clothing. Then, there were many workshops in Yanzhou, giving them a place to make money.

Now they actually have such a miraculous thing to enjoy.

How could this not make him excited or sigh!
