For the indigenous people, their lives have changed, but not much at the moment.
A group of people came to the street and erected pillars, then stretched black lines on them. It looked a bit strange, but compared with the big movements like building bridges, roads and houses, this insignificant change was not enough to make the people of Zhou panic.
At most, they will have more topics to talk about after dinner and speculate on the specific use, but it will soon be covered by new news.
Not to mention anything else, the new chapters of the serial written by the immortal Gu are enough to overshadow all these.
But for Lang Yun, it was an earth-shattering event!
Not only the capital of Zhou, but even the grasslands far beyond the border counties were filled with jubilation.
Yan Tao, who was concentrating on animal research there, was woken up early in the morning. She looked out the window and saw that it was very lively outside.
It’s just that usually the people singing and dancing are from the grassland, but now it’s my classmates.
A few even rushed into the flock, causing the furry ones to run and jump after them, with a chorus of bleating sounds.
Yan Tao was a little confused.
As a veterinary medicine major, she came to Zhouguo Grassland on her own initiative. She has been earning points very quickly here these days.
It can also be regarded as witnessing the step-by-step development and progress of the grassland.
With the gradual utilization of minerals, wind energy and solar energy, more and more people from Langyun are gathering here.
But Yan Tao had never seen these people so excited.
Although she was confused, she still hurriedly got up from the bed, put on her clothes, wiped her face, and ran out the door.
Because I was too anxious, I bumped into someone when I opened the door.
"Bang!"
"ah!"
Before he could fall, someone pulled him back.
Yan Tao quickly stood firm, subconsciously grasped the tranquilizer gun in her hand, looked up with wide eyes, and met Xia Ying's smiling face.
She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "You scared me, are you okay, senior?"
Xia Ying touched his ribs that were hurt by the butt of the gun, took a deep breath, but replied with a smile on his face: "It's okay."
But Yan Tao was a little confused. Why was this man standing guard at her door so early in the morning instead of getting his medicine syringe?
But before he could ask, he heard Xia Ying say, "You are so anxious, what happened?"
Yan Tao then remembered and hurriedly said, "I have to go check on the sheep. The sheep here are different from those in our old world. They are much smarter, but also more aggressive. If you get angry with them, they can really hurt you!"
Xia Ying said, "Don't worry, the other people in your profession have already gone there, nothing will happen."
Yan Tao looked over there and saw several people holding the same type of tranquilizer guns guarding the sheep pen.
Only then did she feel completely relieved, and her tense expression relaxed.
After taking a breath, Yan Tao finally felt like asking, "What are they so happy about?"
Xia Ying said: "Of course it's about the electricity."
"? Wasn't this news several days ago? Why are they only now starting to be happy?"
"Because the system finally has a task to build a power station on the grassland."
Speaking of this, although Xia Ying is a medical student and doesn't quite understand foreign professional matters, he can still empathize with their excitement.
You know, the development of every place does not happen overnight, but is a gradual process.
From agriculture to industry, from thermal power to electricity, these all need to be achieved step by step.
To be able to generate electricity successfully, other infrastructure needs to be fully constructed.
This may sound like an understatement, but it takes a lot of effort.
Among them are students majoring in electricity-related majors.
Xia Ying looked at the cheering crowd in the distance and whispered, "It's been nearly six years, and their majors are finally useful. They must be very happy. After all, those majors are our school's top majors, and they all got in with high scores. Who would have thought that they would suffer for several years after traveling through time?"
Yan Tao blinked and understood instantly.
Without points, you can’t even eat meat.
Write the word "miserable" on your back!
Fortunately, they've finally made it through. So, it's okay for them to make a scene in the sheep pen...
Yan Tao pursed her lips and put the tranquilizer gun aside.
At this moment, Xia Ying smiled and said, "Do you want to go back and rest for a while?"
Yan Tao blinked: "Now that I'm up, what are I going to do?"
Xia Ying did not answer directly, but just pointed to the glass window behind her.
At this time, new houses have been built on the grassland, and because of the rich mineral resources, a glass manufacturing plant was first built.
Something worth more than gold was pressed against the window first.
From the beginning, the people of the grassland would pray on the spot whenever they saw something, and it only took a few days for them to feel at peace with themselves.
So, people are very adaptable and their speed of accepting new things is always astonishing...
As soon as he thought of this, Xia Ying heard a short "Ah!"
He wanted to lower his head, but Yan Tao covered his eyes first.
My soft palm touched my eyelashes, and it felt itchy.
Xia Ying didn't struggle, but just smiled and asked, "What's wrong?"
Yan Tao didn't say anything, but her round face turned red.
I don’t know whether I was angry or anxious.
She had a lot of hair to begin with, and she hadn't taken care of it in a hurry just now. Now, in the reflection of the window, her hair was all blown out, and she looked like a little lion.
Xia Ying also guessed it, and the corners of his mouth curled up even higher: "It's just that his hair is a little messy, it's nothing."
Yan Tao muttered, "It's okay if others see it, but you are not allowed to look."
Xia Ying was silent for a moment before asking, "Why?"
This question stumped Yan Tao.
She herself didn't know why, but it was as if subconsciously, the mission was the most important thing to everyone else. She didn't care even if she was rubbed all over with wool, but she just didn't want this person to see her in such a miserable state.
This idea is very strange.
Yan Tao herself couldn't figure out why, but Xia Ying understood.
For the first time, he took the initiative to reach out and hold Yan's fingertips.
To be honest, this was a decision that Xia Ying made with great courage.
He looks calm and composed, but he is actually very panicked.
I was afraid that this girl who would pull out a gun at any time would shoot me.
Fortunately, when he opened his eyes, what he was greeted by was not the black muzzle of a gun, but Yan Tao's dark eyes.
Although her eyes were filled with astonishment and confusion, she did not struggle free nor hit him.
Xia Ying said "good" in his heart, feeling that he had achieved a temporary victory in his pursuit.
But she still had a gentle smile on her face and said, "It's not time for breakfast yet, let me help you comb your hair first."
Yan Tao was surprised: "You even know this?"
Xia Ying nodded and thought to himself that he had done a lot of homework in order to chase people. The small braids of the horses on the grassland were basically the result of his practice.
It’s not that difficult, after all, he studied surgery and does this kind of delicate work.
If there is a chance in the future, I can ask her to check my technique of suturing the incision to ensure it is smooth and perfect... Well, this matter can be done slowly, there is no need to rush.
However, Yan Tao was a little confused: "But I think I can do it myself, so you don't have to..."
Xia Ying interrupted directly: "You're welcome, it's not troublesome, let me do it."
After saying that, he pulled Yan Tao into the house and asked her to sit in front of the mirror by the window. He stood behind her, and his slender fingertips, which were used to holding a scalpel, picked up the comb with ease.
Yan Tao looked at the man's reflection in the mirror. Although she still didn't understand why things had developed into combing hair, the other party seemed quite skilled.
More skilled than myself.
So she quickly suppressed her doubts and began to enthusiastically talk about wanting the bun that she had always failed to tie. Halfway through, she changed her mind and said she wanted a scorpion braid.
This scene was seen by Lu Yuanbo who happened to pass by.
He just took a glance and walked away muttering "Don't look at what is inappropriate", but he was still envious in his heart.
As the son of the Lu family, Lu Yuanbo was once punished with exile for distributing leaflets on rooftops to expose the evil deeds of other wealthy families.
It’s just that, on the surface, he was exiled to the grassland, but in fact he was invited to teach cultural courses.
As a top scholar, Lu Langjun was naturally familiar with all of this. Life on the grassland was more comfortable than he had expected. The only thing that bothered him was something that should not have happened -
He fell in love with a girl.
Moreover, he took on a high-difficulty challenge and fell in love with Tana, the chief of the largest tribe on the grassland.
Tana was beautiful and tall, had a good relationship with the eldest princess of Zhou State, and was the head of a clan, so she was naturally very attractive.
But the men who saw her either wanted to challenge her to a duel or were afraid of her.
At present, Lu Yuanbo is the only one who dares to like her.
But Mr. Lu is not like an immortal who says whatever he thinks. As a native, he has always been reserved.
But at this moment, I still feel envious and my mouth is full of sourness.
If only he could comb Tana's hair, too.
Even if it is not a small window, you can still do your makeup there.
Perhaps because he was always thinking about his beloved, when Lu Yuanbai came to his senses, he had already walked to an open space.
There are several tables in the middle where people from the grassland eat breakfast.
Among them was Tana.
As the clan leader, Tana is used to eating and living with her family members, and never distinguishes between high and low.
Now she was sitting on a stool with a long whip wrapped around her waist, holding goat milk wine in one hand and a big bun in the other, eating very comfortably.
When she saw Lü Yuanbo, she raised her wine bowl and said, "Master Lü is here. Would you like a drink?"
Lu Yuanbai wanted to say that he was not good at drinking.
But the first thing he said was: "Okay, a drink would be nice."
After saying that, he froze.
I never thought that there would be a day when my mouth would not listen to me!
But his legs were out of control and he walked to Tana and sat down, keeping his legs together and holding the wine bowl handed to him without moving.
Tana didn't try to persuade him to drink, but just drank her own. After a while, she saw that Lu Yuanbai hadn't moved, and thought that the scholar was too reserved to let go, so she took the initiative to ask, "Master, what do you want to see me about?"
Lu Yuanbai stared at the wine for a while, then suddenly picked it up and took a sip. He seemed to become braver.
Then he turned around and said, "I wonder if the clan leader..." does he have someone he likes?
If not, how about me?
Before he could even ask, he heard a voice from not far away: "Chief! Another thief is trying to escape from prison!"
Tana didn't care about Lu Yuanbo anymore. She put down what she was holding, stood up, pulled out the whip, took a few steps forward, and whipped it hard.
“Whoosh, snap!”
The long whip hit the wall and broke several bricks!
The prisoner who was about to run away was so frightened that he lay on the ground, trembling and motionless.
The people around were amazed.
Lv Yuanbai heard someone say, "My goodness, this whip can break the brick into several pieces. If it hits someone, it would be really annoying."
The man spoke with emotion and admiration.
But when it reached Lv Yuanbo's ears, it had a different meaning.
Some things really need to be done step by step.
If I had just been so impulsive and reckless and scared her, and she had whipped me...
I wonder if people on the grassland are willing to marry disabled people?
So, when Tana came back and asked about Lv Yuanbo's purpose again, he was already very sober, and his smile was the same as before: "I see that the immortals have been talking about electricity. I wonder what it is?"
Tana sat down again, picked up the big bun and took a bite, then said, "It should be a very powerful thing. I'm not sure, but I've written to the capital, hoping to build one on the grassland. The immortal also said that our place is suitable, so I'm waiting for a reply."
Lü Yuanbai didn't understand: "What do you need that for? I think the grassland is already very good now."
Tana couldn't explain it clearly for a moment, so she just said, "Princess Lingyun's wedding is coming soon, and I'm going to the capital to congratulate her. Coincidentally, your family is also in the capital, so we can go together and you'll see what electricity can do."
Lu Yuanbo wanted to ask more questions, but at this moment, Xia Ying came over.
At this moment, Xia had completely lost the gentleness and consideration he had shown in front of Yan Tao. Instead, he spoke in a very businesslike manner, "Langyun has received a task," and then paused. "That means the plan for building the power plant has been approved."
Tana immediately smiled. "Really? Then will we be able to see a light comparable to the bright moon at night on our grassland in the future?"
Lv Yuanbo was shocked: "A light brighter than the moon?"
Tana said with certainty: "Rangran, the gods said there must be light."
Lu Yuanbo turned his head to look at Xia Ying.
Xia Ying shook the plan in his hand and said calmly, "Yes, God said there must be light, and with the organization's approval, we agree there must be light."
Lü Yuanbai: ...
However, I always feel like something is wrong.
Tana did not delay her trip to the capital and set off the next day.
They were not riding in a carriage, but in a train.
Naturally, the people in Langyun had no difficulty adapting. Although the speed might not be as fast as the green-skinned train, they were willing to spend money, and the craftsmen in Zhou State were all skilled, so the chairs, small tables, and furnishings were all made extremely well.
Moreover, they are all small private rooms. Once the door is closed, they become a world of their own and are extremely comfortable.
Now Yan Tao is smiling and fiddling with the playing cards in her hand, preparing to start the regular entertainment program on the train.
As for Xia Ying, who was sitting next to her, he pretended to half-raise his hand casually, as if he was wary of the possible shaking of the train, ready to support Yan Tao at any time.
All in all, the two of them were very natural.
In contrast are the two indigenous people opposite.
For Tana, who was traveling by train for the first time, this was obviously a challenge.
Even though she personally supervised the laying of the railroad tracks and had seen freight trains going back and forth several times, after actually getting on the train, she still felt tense and quite unnatural.
Even when the front of the car made a "humming" sound, Tana's hand holding the whip turned a little white.
This surprised Lu Yuanbo, who was sitting next to her.
It was naturally the first time for Lu Langjun, but he had always been very brave. At this moment, he was only excited and had no fear at all.
But when he saw Tana's appearance, his eyes rolled and he suppressed all his joy, even starting to hold his breath.
It seemed unusually quiet.
When Tana looked over, Lu Yuanbai's face was pale and his eyes were red.
It looks very pitiful.
The female leader was startled and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong, Master?"
Lu Yuanbai looked over and whispered, "Excuse me, this is the first time I've encountered such an iron thing that moves on its own. It's really, really..."
He trembled as he spoke.
Yan Tao and Xia Ying, who were watching the whole process, looked at each other.
Then he began to mutter:
"Taotao, I think he's pretending."
"Yeah, he's really fake. My little lamb acted better than him when he was begging for milk."
As soon as the words fell, Tana said anxiously: "Don't cry, what's wrong?"
Lv Yuanbai said aggrievedly: "I'm scared."
Tana wanted to say, I’m afraid too…
However, people's courage often varies according to their responsibilities. If Tana were alone, she would probably be clinging to the window now, so that she could escape at any time if anything happened.
But now there was a silly pale-faced man looking at her helplessly, which made Chief Tana suddenly stand up.
Forget about being afraid, forget about being scared.
The matriarch straightened her back, sat upright, and spoke with full energy: "It's okay. I asked the immortal before coming up. These windows are movable. If something really happens, there will always be a way to leave."
Lu Yuanbai was still worried: "But I am just an untalented scholar, and I am powerless..."
Tana said seriously: "It's okay, leave everything to me, I will protect you."
Lu Yuanbai raised his slightly red eyes and asked softly, "Really?"
Tana replied, “Of course.”
At the same time, she was thinking in her head how to comfort the person in front of her.
Unfortunately, she was used to being straightforward on the grassland and had never said anything softly, which really made it difficult for her.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yuanbai didn't need her to coax him, and soon he laughed, muttering: "With your words, it's done."
Tana was confused.
Where did it end? Where did it end?
Why is it that this scholar's words are always incomprehensible?
The two Langyun people who had been watching looked at each other again.
This time no one spoke, but just looked into each other's eyes -
Sure enough, the more books you read, the deeper the routines become!
This cultured person wants to deceive people, but that is truly natural.
But there was also a benefit. Because of this interruption, Tana completely forgot her fear of this iron lump.
After half a day, I had completely adapted to life on the train.
I even wanted to play Landlord with the two people opposite me.
But she was not a good player and lost several games in a row until Lu Langjun, who had understood the rules by watching from the sidelines, started to give her advice, and then the female clan leader started to win.
By the time night fell, Tana had already won, and her eyes were almost full of stars when she looked at Lu Yuanbo.
This made Lu Langjun particularly happy, and his way of expressing his joy was to take the initiative to go outside to prepare food and bring it in later.
Tana also followed him out, as if she wanted to ask him about the secrets of playing poker.
All I can say is that no matter which dimension, playing games is always the fastest way to bring people closer together.
Yan Tao also wanted to get up: "No need, I can go by myself."
But as soon as he finished speaking, Xia Ying pulled him to sit down.
Facing Yan's puzzled expression, Xia Ying waited until the two men left before calmly explaining, "We deserve this meal."
Yan Tao didn't understand: "What do you mean?"
Xia Ying's mouth twitched, and he said calmly, "We served as his love tools, so naturally we have to get some compensation."
Yan Tao was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed: "You said, he likes her!"
"right."
"How could I not know!"
Xia Ying twitched the corners of his mouth again, but didn't say anything in the end.
I was just thinking, of course you don’t know, I have liked you for a long time, and you didn’t realize it either.
I'm used to it, it doesn't matter. The love line is not important when it comes to career.
...Anyway, the speed of time flowing in the two worlds is different, and he firmly believes that the revolution will succeed one day!
At this moment, his mobile phone received a video call from Bian Yuhang.
After the call was connected, before he could open his mouth, he saw a dazzling light on the other side, which made Xia Ying's eyes go white.
He was startled and quickly covered his phone. He waited until the light dimmed before asking, "What are you doing over there?"
Bian Yuhang apologized: "Power test, sorry, I didn't expect it to be connected so suddenly."
Xia Ying also knew that the Zhou capital had already started to have electricity, so he asked curiously, "You guys started rolling it out so quickly?"
Bian Yuhang couldn't stop smiling when he heard this. "Actually, we've been preparing for a long time. Many professionals have been waiting for this day and have been quietly building things. Now that the opportunity has come, their efficiency is naturally amazing."
Yan Tao, who was standing by, poked her head over, stared at the corner and asked, "Who's that over there?"
Bian Yuhang looked back and said, "Oh, it's the barbarian art performance troupe."
Yan Tao was shocked.
She has been in the grassland for quite some time. You know, the Zhou Kingdom's grassland was previously occupied by the Barbarian Kingdom. It can be said that after all the people in the grassland learned Mandarin, the first thing they talked about was always the barbarians' ferocity and shamelessness.
In short, except for Chiwu who once stayed in the grassland, there are no good people in the barbarian country!
As a result, now, the burly men they called fierce and fierce have suddenly become burly men who can sing and dance... and even twirl handkerchiefs?
Is there something wrong with the style of painting?
As one of the vice presidents of the student union, Xia Ying gave Yan Tao a brief introduction to everything about the Barbarian Country.
From the dispute between them and the Zhou Kingdom to their experience in Banqui, it can be said that he was extremely patient and paid attention to every detail.
After listening to this, Yan Tao thought carefully and concluded, "In other words, the Barbarian State took the initiative to pick a fight with the Zhou State when it was growing stronger, and then offered itself to be beaten when Ban Kuicha no longer existed?"
Xia Ying nodded: "You can say that."
Then Yan Tao sighed, "It seems that the Barbarian Country still has its merits."
Xia Ying was surprised when he heard this.
Bian Yuhang on the other end of the phone also widened his eyes: "Why do you say that?"
Yan Tao said seriously, "This place creates problems for big countries and helps small ones gain confidence. Even if they suffer losses and get beaten, they persevere and never turn back, taking on a group of people alone. They can be called a recyclable villain. It's so heartwarming."
Xia Ying: ...
Bian Yuhang: Why do I feel so sympathetic towards the Barbarian Country?
