"Master, do you want to take a bath now, while Xiaoxi goes to boil water for you?"

After dinner, Xiao Xi looked at Li Zexuan and asked.

Since the workshop often requires workers to work overtime, there are some "employee dormitories" inside the workshop. Those workers who work overtime too late and cannot return (because of the curfew system in Chang'an City) will sleep in the workshop at night. Correspondingly, the public kitchen (i.e. the canteen) of the workshop will close very late at night, specially preparing hot water and late night snacks for some workers who work overtime. These are the benefits Li Zexuan prepared for the workers after taking over the workshop.

"Don't worry, I have to make something more. Xiao Xi, please stop working. You can clean up and go to bed first! When I'm done, I can just go to the well and pick up a bucket of water to wash myself! It's such a hot day. Feel comfortable with cold water!”

Li Zexuan waved his hand and said.

"Ah! Master, this is not possible. You will catch a cold if you bathe in cold water!"

When Xiao Xi heard this, her little head shook like a rattle, and she firmly disagreed.

"Ha~! Your young master, I have time to spare, how can I catch a cold? Little girl, go and wash yourself off! Young master, I'm busy!"

Li Zexuan smiled nonchalantly, then turned around and went straight back to the room.

"Master~! Humph!"

Xiao Xi stamped her feet in annoyance. The little girl sulked there alone for a while, but after a while she got up and put away the dishes!

... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...

"Chirp, chirp, chirp!"

The night in Zuifengxuan is extremely peaceful and comfortable. A waning moon hung in the night sky, and the sky was dotted with sparkling stars, like a Milky Way paved with fine quicksand lying on the blue sky. Another gust of evening wind blew through, blowing the leaves in the courtyard, making a "shusha" sound, like the low tide of the sea, or the call of the pines. Occasionally, the chirping sound of crickets could be heard in the grass surrounding the house.

In the "laboratory", Li Zexuan continued to make voltaic batteries. There was no TV to watch or a computer to play with. He couldn't sleep so early. It was rare that he found a good thing. He was really addicted to it and wanted to try it. Maybe getting a few more voltaic battery packs and connecting them in series can help.

As the saying goes, once born, twice cooked, in half an hour, he actually produced eleven more voltaic battery packs. In other words, he could now assemble a power supply with a voltage of 12 volts and a current of 500 milliamperes. Yes, it’s not easy!

"Well, I wonder if archaeologists dig up the voltaic battery made by me more than a thousand years later. Will they guess that I have traveled from modern times?"

Li Zexuan looked at the dozen batteries on the table and had some wild thoughts.

"That's right! It seems that someone actually made a voltaic battery earlier. So I am not the first to try this?"

Li Zexuan slapped his head in frustration, because he suddenly remembered an archaeological news he saw on the Tianya Forum in his previous life, which roughly said:

“In 1938, Von Wilhelm Konig, an archaeologist working at the Baghdad Museum in Iraq, announced that he had discovered a battery that predates the voltaic battery. Konig declared, This kind of battery was made by the Mesopotamians as early as 200 BC. This "Baghdad" battery consists of a clay pot about 14 cm high, an iron electrode and a copper sheet surrounding the iron electrode Electrode composition. The iron electrode was also wrapped with grease-soaked paper to prevent it from contacting the copper electrode. In the clay pot, Konig also found traces of some mysterious organic matter.

Later, someone made a replica of the Baghdad battery based on the antiquities. The same electrode material was used, and the electrolyte was vinegar (a material most likely used at the time). Through measurements with modern instruments, it has been proven that the Baghdad battery can produce a voltage of one volt when the current is ten milliamps. This device can indeed be used as a battery, but what was the real purpose for which the Mesopotamians made it more than 2,000 years ago? This question has always been an unsolved mystery. "

There have always been some unknown civilizations on the earth, such as the ancient Egyptians and the Mayans. Perhaps their technological civilization at that time had far exceeded the society of the 21st century.

"Bang bang bang!"

At this time, there was a knock on the door, and then Xiao Xi's voice followed closely.

"Master? Can I come in?"

Xiao Xi said weakly.

After cleaning up the dishes and taking a shower, she couldn't help but feel scared when she stayed alone in the room, because this place was not as popular as the Li Mansion. Tonight, she and Li Zexuan were the only two people in Zuifengxuan (Sambo naturally went Living in "staff dormitories").

"Well, come in!"

Li Zexuan's chaotic thoughts were instantly interrupted by Xiao Xi. He came back to his senses and responded.

"Master, this is ginseng tea. It's cold at night. Please drink some!"

The summer night is like water, and it's really a bit cold late at night.

Xiao Xi came in and gently placed the tea tray on the tables next to Li Zexuan.

Although she was scared to be alone in the house, she couldn't just run into Li Zexuan's house for no reason, right? The little girl has a tender face! So Xiao Xi cleverly went to get a cup of ginseng tea and used it as an excuse to run over.

"Well, thank you for your hard work!"

Li Zexuan said calmly while connecting the wires.

Although the night was as cold as water, he had a good foundation in kung fu and could not feel the coolness at all, so there was no need for ginseng tea or anything like that! Besides, eating too much of this stuff will lead to strong Yang Fire, and Han Yuxi hasn’t married him yet. If he gets animalistic, do he still have to deal with it himself

"Master, what are you doing? Can you tell Xiao Xi?"

Xiao Xi moved a stool, sat next to Li Zexuan, and quickly found a topic by herself.

If she didn't find a topic by herself, she could only stay with Li Zexuan for a quarter of an hour at most, and then she could only go back to her room sadly.

"Well, it's okay, but you're not allowed to tell anyone~!"

Li Zexuan raised his head and glanced at the little maid. Xiao Xi had just finished taking a bath, and there were still a few drops of water on her forehead. Since it was summer, she only wore a thin pink low-cut skirt. Li Zexuan seemed to Even from a distance, one could feel the warmth of the snow-white tender skin under that thin shirt.

He glanced at it and quickly lowered his head, pretending to look at the wire in his hand seriously. In fact, in the middle of the night, alone and alone, and a young and beautiful girl who was about to mature, the atmosphere seemed too... Too ambiguous.

"Yeah! Don't worry, young master, Xiao Xi swears to God, I won't say anything even to death!"

Xiao Xi was very excited when she heard that she had the opportunity to share Li Zexuan's secret. Being so innocent, she didn't notice the strange look in her young master's eyes. Maybe Li Zexuan, a big-tailed wolf, was better at pretending!
