"What the hell are you talking about?"
The two subordinates did not dare to lie and told them exactly what they were betting on.
Xiang Kunlun only felt angry and funny, these childish men! Fortunately, he thought that they had become so self-conscious, but it turned out that they were making a bet.
The two men were very worried. Even if they would not be beheaded, they might not be able to escape punishment.
Who knows, Xiang Kunlun thought for a long time: "Count me in, I will bet that Liu Bei will not send a letter tomorrow."
"Wait until tomorrow night, and you two will tell me the situation."
The two men seemed to be in a dream, they couldn't believe that this was their emperor.
After long and unremitting efforts, the power station finally succeeded and began to provide large amounts of electricity.
Xiang Kunlun was very happy and took people to check the situation personally.
"With this power station, it will be a great progress for Dragon Kingdom!"
He looked at the scene in front of him with satisfaction, and seemed to see the Dragon Kingdom becoming the most powerful country in the world in the near future.
Everyone can live a happy and stable life without having to worry about war or displacement.
After returning to the palace, Zhen Jiang came to find Xiang Kunlun with her child in her arms.
"Husband, look, Shan'er seems to have gained weight again."
"Just now, some of the maids held me and weighed me. I was shocked. I've gained several kilograms."
"Jiang'er is a little worried. He will become a little fat man in the future. He may need to control his diet recently."
Xiang Kunlun listened quietly to what Zhen Jiang told him, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"Come, let me hug this little guy."
Xiang Kunlun carefully took the child from Zhen Jiang's arms and bumped it with his arms. Not to mention, it was indeed a lot heavier.
He didn't care much: "Jiang'er, actually you don't have to worry too much. Children at such a young age need nutrition exactly when they need it. There is no need to deliberately lose weight or control their diet."
Although Zhen Jiang didn't say some words, Xiang Kunlun could understand them.
As the future emperor of the Dragon Kingdom, he should be very good in both temperament and body shape.
No young and promising emperor is a fat man with a big belly.
It's just that he really doesn't care about this kind of thing.
Anyway, this little guy will have to practice martial arts in the future, which will be very difficult. If he practices in the winter or in the summer, he will not gain weight.
He touched Zhen Jiang's face: "If you want to control it, just have a little time discipline. Don't be too anxious."
Zhen Jiang nodded, and then babbled to Xiang Kunlun that Shan'er gained so much weight because of his three godmothers.
Especially Cai Wenji, she is a very greedy person, so she just eats by herself and takes Xiang Shan to eat with her.
There were certain things that Xiang Shan couldn't eat, so she tempted him with delicious food, turning the child into a living glutton.
Diao Chan and Sun Shangxiang are not fuel-efficient lamps either.
These two people were not very greedy themselves. They went out all day to buy some things for children to eat, and reassured Zhen Jiang that they were absolutely healthy and safe.
Zhen Jiang couldn't resist so many people, so Xiang Shan became his current weight under the feeding of three godmothers.
The more Xiang Kunlun listened, the more he wanted to laugh, but in the end he couldn't hold it back.
Seeing Zhen Jiang pouting, he reluctantly stopped it.
"Jiang'er, don't think like that. If you look at it from another angle, which child today can enjoy so much love when he was young?"
Zhen Jiang thought helplessly, no, other children can't enjoy that much, but his own children are beyond.
I really agree with the saying, drought will kill you, and floods will die.
When his subordinates came in to report, Zhen Jiang was very sensible and immediately left with the child in his arms.
For matters of national importance, she believed in her husband's strength to avoid suspicion.
If Xiang Kunlun is willing to share some problems with her, she will listen carefully and give her own suggestions.
If Xiang Kunlun hadn't said anything, she wouldn't have taken the initiative to ask.
"What's the matter?"
Xiang Kunlun immediately put away all his tenderness and restored the dignity that an emperor should have.
"Your Majesty, there is news from the power plant that some copper production is unable to supply."
Xiang Kunlun immediately sent more manpower to speed up production.
Unexpectedly, in the process of mining copper, there was an unexpected harvest.
Xiang Kunlun discovered that there was a large rock in a place.
These rocks appear very abrupt here.
As a modern person, Xiang Kunlun knew that this had something to do with changes in the earth's crust.
There is a great possibility that there will be oil between the gaps in these rocks.
Xiang Kunlun suddenly became excited. If oil can really be discovered, he can refining oil and invent plastics to make people's lives more convenient.
After several days of observation, Xiang Kunlun chose a location and began to try to exploit oil.
He made a simple device, using modern methods of extracting oil, to make a drill bit.
The oil deep in the earth's crust is squeezed by the underlying layer above and the natural gas that may accompany it. It is lighter than the surrounding water and rocks, so when the drill bit touches the oil-bearing layer, it is often squeezed and ejected by the pressure.
The hard work paid off. A few days later, a dark brown liquid with very high viscosity suddenly spurted out.
Everyone covered their noses immediately.
"What is this?"
"Cough cough cough! It smells so bad!"
"Didn't the Emperor say what oil is called?"
Everyone has no idea about oil, and they think that this "oil" can be eaten just like cooking.
However, I don’t quite understand why the oil smells so bad.
Xiang Kunlun was also disgraced at this moment, and he didn't look like his usual self at all.
In order to complete the project, he did it himself and finally extracted oil.
"This thing is called petroleum. Remember, it is the raw material for many chemical industrial products, such as solvents, fertilizers, pesticides, and plastics."
"As long as you have it, you will see more things being born."
As expected, Xiang Kunlun asked people to continue to exploit oil, and at the same time, he asked people to refine the oil that had been mined.
After refining and cracking, plastic is finally made.
Several of his men stared at the thing in front of them. It was hard to imagine that the raw material of this thing was black petroleum.
The plastic in front of you feels very smooth and a bit cold, but if you put your palm on it for a while, it will heat up quickly.
Everyone couldn't help but sigh that their emperor had invented another great thing.
With so many new things being created, the Empire is stronger than ever.
Xiang Kunlun is ready to improve the legal system again.
