Chapter 28 Someone's treating!
Outside the canopy, the voices of people from various dynasties rose and fell in discussion: "Huh? As soon as the young master turned on the mechanism, the carriage started moving?"
"6
"Is this the wooden ox and flowing horse?"
"But this little metal car is going way too fast! It shot off like an arrow!"
"The best part is that the car has headlights! Wouldn't it illuminate the ground like daytime when driving at night?" The peddler in the market fantasized about having a small car so that he wouldn't have to work so hard going out early and returning late at night.
In the Xianyang Palace of the Qin Dynasty, Ying Zheng put down his fried egg and pointed to the electric scooter in the sky, asking Zhao Gao, "That scooter makes no sound of turning axles, yet it moves incredibly fast. What is the reason for this?"
Zhao Gao wiped away cold sweat: "Your Majesty, I—I don't know—perhaps it's electricity? Just now, the young master mentioned 'cart lights,' could that light be produced by electricity?"
Ying Zheng's eyes narrowed: "Send down the order, have the scholars research electricity! I want Qin to have such a vehicle too!"
Zhu Yuanzhang, shoveling the last mouthful of porridge from his bowl, watched Lin Chen's departing figure on his bicycle and muttered to Empress Ma, "That kid's bicycle is even lighter than our imperial carriage! If we had one of these back when we were conquering the world, we would have chased Chen Youliang away like a dog!"
Empress Ma smiled and handed over a large flatbread: "You, all you ever think about is war. Eat this flatbread first, and tomorrow I'll have the imperial kitchen prepare more eggs. You should learn how to eat them like other people do."
Zhu Yuanzhang scratched his head: "My sister understands me best!"
Inside the canopy, Lu Chen rode his electric scooter, carrying Xiao Sizi, weaving through the streets—
"Brother, the wind is so strong!" Xiao Sizi's ponytail fluttered in the wind as she clung tightly to Lu Chen's trouser leg, her eyes curiously scanning the tall buildings lining the road. "Those buildings are so tall! They're practically piercing the clouds!"
Lu Chen laughed and said, "This is called a 'skyscraper,' and it can house lots and lots of people."
"Wow!" The people outside the canopy opened their eyes wide once again.
"How were such tall buildings constructed?"
"You forgot? Modern buildings have elevators! No matter how tall the building, you can't climb it?"
"But the elevator is inside the building, so how did they build the original building so tall?"
"Don't even think about it! Modern people have plenty of ways. Look at all these big and small cars on the street, that's real traffic flow."

Passing by a bubble tea shop, Xiao Si pointed to the colorful drinks in the window: "Brother! What are those red and green ones?"

Like the candied fruit juice from the palace!
"That's bubble tea, we've had it before. Shall I buy you a cup when we get back?"
"Okay~~"
Soon, they arrived at Jin Hai's art studio training class.
As soon as she entered the hall, Xiao Sizi was attracted by the fresh decorations and furnishings.
The walls of the studio hall were painted a bright pale yellow and covered with children's paintings: a little girl with braids squatting in a sunflower field, an astronaut riding a rainbow-colored whale, and a winged rabbit castle made of clay.
Little Sizi tiptoed and gently touched the golden sun in a painting with his finger, exclaiming softly, "Brother, the paintings here glow!"
The paper was sprinkled with shimmering gold powder, which refracted tiny sparkles under the light, making it look like crushed stars were spread on the paper.
"This is acrylic paint, it's much brighter than the mineral paints you have there." Jin Hai came out just as Lu Chen finished explaining.
"Hey! Lu Chen, long time no see! What brings you here today? Where did you pick up such a pretty kid?"
"Hello Zhang Jing, buddy~~" Xiao Sizi greeted politely.
"Hello, baby~~" Zhang Jing bent down and waved with a smile.
"This is my younger sister, my uncle's daughter from our hometown. She was adopted by my family and is now my biological sister."
Here, take this. It contains some vegetables and meat. We're going back to our hometown tomorrow, so we won't be able to finish it all.
"Also, I'll be leaving my electric scooter here for a few days, don't forget to charge it for me." Lu Chen handed over the bag.
"No problem! I guarantee I'll complete the mission. These are all good stuff; these trainees are in luck." Zhang Jing opened the bag and took a look.
"Well, we'll be going now. We still need to go to the supermarket to buy some things." Lu Chen was about to leave.
"Wait a minute, I was just thinking of going to the supermarket too, let's go together, and then we can have lunch together, it's been a long time since we got together." Zhang Jing called out to them.
"Okay, we'll ride in your car."
"Let's go! Let's ride in the car!" Little Si couldn't help but jump up again.
"Oh, it's so nice to have a little sister! This baby is so pretty and lively."
"Her name is Sizi. Originally, it was the 'four' in 'one, two, three, four,' but I changed it into an elegant incantation—it's an ancient rhinoceros beast. It took me quite a while to figure that out."
"Really? That's true. Changing a child's name suddenly will be hard for her to adjust to." Zhang Jing thought to herself, "That girl has enough kids already."
"oh!"
The world was in an uproar.
"Young man, you are so clever!"
"The princess is so lucky; someone automatically puts her in the carriage when she goes out."
"That Zhang Jinglang looks quite nice too."
"Of course! How could the young master's friends be anything less than excellent?"
Li Shimin smiled and nodded: "This Lu Chen is quite clever, not bad."
Empress Zhangsun smiled radiantly: "Our Prince Si has gained another elder brother."

Zhang Jing opened the car door: "Lu Chen, what do you think of my new tank?"
"Oh! You got a new car again?"
"No, I didn't buy that BMW. I'll just switch between the two cars," Zhang Jing said casually.
"This guy, everyone in your family has a car, that's more than enough. Do you even earn enough to drive?" Lu Chen said with a grin.
"Hey! Just drive it for fun! The money you earn is enough for your own expenses. Besides, you'd have to spend it anyway. As long as you don't live off your savings."
The most interesting one is my third uncle. In his youth, he indulged in all sorts of vices, from drinking and gambling to prostitution, and didn't save a single penny of his business money. But this time, after receiving compensation for the demolished property, he actually turned over a new leaf and now spends his days doing landscaping work in the neighborhood, weeding and watering. Others don't understand and ask, "You've received so much money, why are you still doing this?"
He said, "I'll just treat it as exercise!"
"Hahahaha..." The three of them laughed together.
That's why they say "a prodigal son who returns is more precious than gold"! It's never too late for someone to learn to be good.
"Yes, my third aunt is very content now." Zhang Jing started the car.
Whoosh—the car started moving steadily.
"Zhang Jing, is it difficult for you to park this car?" Lu Chen asked.
"You're really out of touch. There's a new invention now: cars can park themselves, they can park automatically. You can even get out of the car first, the steering wheel will turn by itself."
"Oh. That's great. It's omnidirectional surveillance?"
"Hmm... It's probably the same principle as automatic sweeping robots and mopping robots."
boom!
Wan Chao was deeply shocked once again.
"Modern development is truly changing with each passing day!"
"Almost miraculous!"
"Cars have their own eyes!"
"They don't even need anyone to sweep the floor anymore?" The landlord's mind started working.
"Oh! What would we do if we lived in modern times?" The maids and servants tilted their heads in thought.
