Inside the Liang Kingdom Emperor's unusually spacious carriage, a pot of scented tea was steaming. A good ventilation system kept the air inside the carriage fresh. Next to the coffee table in the middle, many exotic flowers and plants collected from all over the continent competed for splendor, creating a vibrant scene.

Judging from the layout, the huge carriage only contained two spacious chairs. It seemed that Emperor Liang didn't often invite others aboard. The walls of the carriage were very thick, and the interior was completely obscured by heavy tapestries. The noise from the construction site was reduced to a subtle sound, completely unnoticeable if you didn't listen carefully.

Lin Hai felt that if Emperor Liang had not just unveiled the tapestry and then opened the window to speak to the outside, even if he shouted at the top of his lungs inside, Lin Hai outside would not be able to hear him.

!!

You can't think like that, it's too scary.

Lin Hai took a look at Emperor Liang and found that although Emperor Liang was a few years older than him, thanks to the royal family's good nutrition and training, his physique should be far superior to Lin Hai's own. If Emperor Liang had bad intentions, he would probably be able to kill Lin Hai with just that teapot.

Fortunately, the Emperor of Liang might attack the Emperor of Qinghe, but he certainly won't have any ill intentions towards Mr. Lin, right?

Emperor Xia Jun'ao of Liang, estimated to be about 1.9 meters tall, sat at the tea table. He picked up the teapot with one hand and filled a plain celadon cup with tea. Some Liang imperial cakes and seasonal fruits lay on a celadon tray nearby, looking delicious.

Yes, even though Lin Hai is already the emperor, and even though he is a time traveler, the things that Lin Hai ate and used in the past are unimaginable even for the emperor in this world.

But after coming to this world, Lin Hai discovered that his food, clothing and daily necessities were actually all dependent on the development of science and technology. However, when it comes to the temperament and vision that can only be cultivated by several generations, he is hundreds of streets behind the royal family of this world.

At least the royal family of this world, even a small warlord like Xin Yuetu with only four states left, would not take their wives to eat in other people's cafeterias every day...

Anyway, since he was already in someone's carriage, he still had to give some compliments. Lin Hai searched his brains for a while, then picked up the teacup and took a big sip. He had just talked too much outside, and to be honest, he was a little thirsty. He then nodded and praised:

"A nice carriage, beautiful decorations, and delicious tea... Hmm, this tea looks delicious too."

“Hahahahahahahaha.”

Caught off guard, Xia Junao laughed so hard that he fell forward and backward. He had just been about to take a sip of tea, but luckily he didn't. Otherwise, if he had sprayed a mouthful of tea on the other emperor, it would have been more than just a matter of disrespect.

"Mr. Lin, you don't need to praise me."

Xia Junao laughed.

"No, I'm just telling the truth." Lin Hai said as he was stuffing a piece of dessert into his mouth.

"I got up too early today and had already consumed my breakfast. I talked so much on purpose just to hold on until noon so I could eat at the construction site."

Lin Hai picked up another piece of cake, the name of which he didn't know but looked very expensive, and said, "It's a coincidence that you came and brought so much food. That's really great."

Xia Junao was choked by Lin Hai's words and was speechless. Although the information and data about Lin Hai had piled up like a mountain in his imperial study, no one had ever mentioned to him that Mr. Lin, the Emperor of Qinghe who came to this world for the tenth time, was actually such a person.

"Well, if you like, just eat more. I brought the entire imperial kitchen with me. If it's not enough, you can make it now."

Xia Junao said politely.

Everyone would be polite when facing an emperor, except Lin Hai.

"Okay, then during the time you're here, my food, oh no, my food, my wife's food, and the food of my brothers are all in your hands. Do you have enough people in the imperial kitchen? If not, I can ask a few people to help."

Xia Junao silently picked up the tea and took a sip to calm himself down.

"That's enough. The imperial kitchen probably has at least a few hundred people, so it should be enough. Besides, I can't finish all the food they cook by myself. It will taste better if there are more people."

"The imperial kitchen."

Lin Hai sighed:

"Actually, I have this organization too. The chef in charge is a former Qinghe Army cook. His cooking is terrible. Back then, I went to the front line for an inspection. You know, such inspections must demonstrate the unity of officers and soldiers. So I took a bite of his meal, and it was so bad that I almost vomited. But for the sake of the overall situation, I still praised him profusely."

"So after you became emperor, he became your royal chef?"

Xia Junao asked in surprise.

"Yes, I originally suggested hiring a chef, and he volunteered to come. He told me that I loved his cooking and praised it highly... I had no choice but to accept him."

“Hahahahahahahaha.”

Xia Junao seemed to have discovered something incredible: "If you really can't replace him, you can just hire a few more cooks. At worst, you can just not eat the food he cooks. It's not a big deal."

Lin Hai shook his head and said, "No way. I ask all civil and military officials to save every penny every day. Even at my Prime Minister's house, his wife cooks and he washes the dishes himself. I can't make any special arrangements."

Now it was Xia Junao's turn to be surprised: "You and your subjects are so frugal?"

"Every copper coin has its use. Qinghe is so small, with so many people and so little output, yet there are so many things to do. We still have to spend money where it should be spent."
