Emperor Jing took the first bite, and his ministers drooled as they watched.
Everyone has seen popsicles, but I haven’t seen Taoyuan popsicles. They seem to be delicious.
Li Yuanzhao stretched out his hand: "Give me one."
Fang Zhengyi handed over another one, and seeing the crowd gathered around him, he said, "Everyone line up, I've prepared some! Everyone has one!"
The line gradually formed and people started lining up to get popsicles.
There are many varieties of popsicles, such as Taoyuan big ones, small puddings, and various fruit-flavored popsicles. You can choose what you want.
The speed of distribution was very fast. When it was Yang Yingcai's turn, he said, "I want the Taoyuan board."
Fang Zheng looked up, then took a popsicle from the side and handed it over.
Yang Yingcai frowned and said, "I'm not the Taoyuan boss."
"Who are you? The big board is for His Majesty to eat, you eat the old popsicles!"
It's a personal revenge, right?
Yang Yingcai's face darkened, and he took the old popsicle and walked to the shade and started eating silently...
After everyone finished eating their popsicles, the heat subsided a lot. They looked at the small trade fair for a while, bought some items of interest, and then followed Fang Zheng to officially head towards the stadium.
Dongjiao University already has a dedicated playground, but it is obviously not enough to handle large-scale grand events, so during the preparation period, it has been fully expanded.
It is now as large as a football field in Mid-Levels.
Led by Fang Zhengyi, Emperor Jing walked from the main gate to the stands. The position of the rostrum had already been specially built and there was a shade.
The ministers gathered around Emperor Jing, while the foreign envoys sat farther away.
The edges around the stadium are covered with various advertisements, but these advertisements are carefully designed and approved by the newspaper.
The aesthetics and content are both on point, so there doesn't seem to be anything dissonant about it.
When Emperor Jing sat on the podium, he immediately discovered something unusual.
Near his left side, there was an inexplicable disc-shaped device covered with an iron net, and three leaf-like things could be vaguely seen inside.
Emperor Jing couldn't help but ask curiously: "Zhengyi, what is this?"
Fang Zhengyi grinned and said mysteriously, "This is something I prepared specially for you. Today's activities will last a long time, and I was afraid that your father would not be able to bear the heat, so I prepared this."
He bent down and stretched his hands to the ground.
Emperor Jing looked in that direction and discovered a red thread.
After Fang Zheng gently pulled the red line twice, not long after, the disc-like object began to make some strange noises.
Emperor Jing couldn't help but lean over to observe.
Unexpectedly, a breeze blew slowly onto my face.
"What is this? Why is there wind?" Emperor Jing suddenly stepped back, horrified.
Fang Zhengyi smiled slightly: "Father, please be at ease. This is a fan. It is the latest research result of Dongjiao University. It can blow air automatically."
Guo Tianyang was standing next to Emperor Jing and felt the wind force at the first moment.
Just now he had covered his mouth tightly to prevent himself from screaming.
After hearing Fang Zheng's explanation, he slowly put down his hand and murmured, "Amazing, so amazing. Just now there was a unicorn that automatically spit out water, and now there is a fan that automatically blows air?"
Emperor Jing was also shocked and stretched out his hand to feel the wind from the fan.
As if talking to himself, he said, "What on earth is going on? Zhengyi, don't hide it. Although I am rich, I have really opened my eyes today! How can there be something in the world that moves by itself?"
Fang Zheng opened his mouth and wanted to explain, but finally thought about it and gave up.
This is steam technology!
Although they have invented some fans and fountains, they have no commercial value at present.
The cost is high, fuel consumption is high, and labor costs are high.
If the truth were told to him in advance, the emperor and his ministers would probably think that this was just a gimmick.
We still have to wait until the train is built before we can say whether it is suitable.
After thinking for a while, Fang Zheng said, "It's actually not that mysterious. Simply put, some tools are used to connect the ground to the ground, and someone works underneath to drive the fan blades, so the fan can produce air. The same is true for fountains."
"So that's how it is." Emperor Jing nodded.
Once the principle was revealed, the mystery brought by the fountain fan disappeared instantly, and Emperor Jing regained his composure.
Guo Tianyang even showed a hint of disdain in his eyes.
What is this? It turns out that someone is playing tricks behind the scenes. It is just a combination of craftsmanship and magic. I thought it was some magic trick. It scared me!
"Brother Guo, stand behind the fan."
"Why?" Guo Tianyang wondered, "It's good for me to stand here, so it's convenient for me to serve His Majesty."
Fang Zheng twisted the fan and said, "Turn it left and right. Otherwise, the straight wind will keep blowing and damage my dad. Will you be responsible?"
Emperor Jing smiled, looking very pleased: "Zhengyi, you are really thoughtful."
"......"
Guo Tianyang flattened his mouth, stood behind him with grievance, and began to twist left and right, simulating natural wind...
After making some simple arrangements, Fang Zhengyi bowed his head and said, "Father, there are other audience members who need to enter. I will go and make arrangements first. The opening ceremony will begin as soon as everyone arrives."
"Okay, go and arrange it."
As soon as Fang Zheng left, about ten minutes later, the rest of the audience began to pour into the auditorium.
All the seats were already filled, but the audience recruited from the public were waiting inside Dongjiao University and were not allowed to enter until Emperor Jing took his seat.
The composition of the participants is extremely complex, with a 1:1 ratio of men to women. There are merchants from Beijing who paid a lot of money to come here, cheerleaders from Taoyuan County, specially invited celebrities, and students from Yucai Primary School...
As more and more people arrived, the audience gradually became noisy.
During this period of waiting, the ministers began to chat without restraint.
The officials on the side looked at Guo Tianyang twisting his body with his butt sticking out, and their faces turned gloomy.
"What is Eunuch Guo doing there? Twisting and turning."
"Who knows, maybe you'll have diarrhea from eating the popsicle just now?"
"It's shameful to act so indecently in front of so many people!"
"Hey, the people from Yucai Primary School are here!" A cry of surprise interrupted the crowd's condemnation.
I saw a group of children wearing small flower hats and holding small flags with the word "Yucai" written on them, walking in an orderly line towards the officials' seats.
All the officials immediately showed joy on their faces and looked for their children.
The whole scene was not completely arranged until Li Yu sat next to Emperor Jing.
The timing was perfect. Fang Zheng and his group walked up to the crowd, cleared his throat and said, "Everyone, please be quiet. The opening ceremony of this sports meeting will begin soon!"
