Chapter 64

: Meeting Beauty in the Palace

Zhang Ziqiang and Amilia secretly assembled the steam machine in the Qi Refining Room. Seeing his appearance, Amilia probably had something to do. After waiting for a while, the water boiled, the pull rod began to move. Amilia didn't know what she thought of, and her face turned red and thought to herself: "Why do this master always make such strange things?"

He didn't know what Amilia was thinking, but he knew that this thing would definitely surprise the boss again. He smiled and turned off the fire. After the machine cooled down, he then packed it in a pectin box. This time, Dovers only asked him to carry the box and enter the palace with him. He left the village to tell the imperial guards that he was going to enter the palace to see the king. Who dared to stop him now? The king's ban was targeted at his servants rather than Hou himself. Besides, Hou was going to see His Majesty the King, and it was not within the prohibition.

Carus was chatting with foreign guests in the Political Affairs Hall. He felt secretly happy, making you people look down on me, and letting you people say that our country is a barbarian. Now I have a water pump, and I will slander you! What? Do you want to see the inventor of the water pump? This... Although Carus has not learned the "Tai Chi Jing", the Tai Chi pusher is higher than Zhang Ziqiang's level. He talks a little while and then pulls the topic apart. People won't let you see it! He smiles on his face, and he feels happy, and he feels that he has never felt so relieved.

He was in a state of joy when he heard the guards whispering that Zhang Ziqiang was going to enter the palace, so he ordered people to be taken directly to the harem. Poor Dover's ancestor was not revealed, and he wanted to see the king so that he could have the capital to brag when he went back. This time he was not summoned, but he didn't know that the guards had ignored him at all. Dover gave the pectin box in his hand to the guards, with a look of grievance.

Zhang Ziqiang entered the harem and was wondering why he didn't see me in the Political Affairs Hall this time? The guards led him all the way to a pavilion and asked him to wait, so they left Zhang Ziqiang to leave alone.

"Why are you so unceremonious? Leaving me alone here, you don't even have to drink a cup of tea?"

He complained in his heart, but he didn't know that this was the harem, which was equivalent to the inner courtyard of his Wangzhuang. If the king was not there, how could the guards dare to stay? This mainland woman is also very strong, and some heavy work does not necessarily require men to do it. Therefore, there was no eunuch in the palace. If the guards sneak in and were discovered by Carus, they would not be chopping down the small head but the big head on them.

All the envoys from all countries arrived at the Kingdom of Al. The palace was filled with foreign guests, and even the side hall was filled with entourages of these envoys. What? You said that entourages cannot enter the palace? If the governor, his secretary and driver come to your house, you only let the governor enter the door and leave the secretary and driver outside the door? The strength of the Kingdom of Al is the weakest among all countries. When you meet other kings, you have to call them the boss. Even foreign guests and entourages must be treated carefully, so as not to offend people for this small matter, right?

Now these foreign guests in the palace are asking to see Zhang Ziqiang. Thanks to Carus's Tai Chi playing tricks, they fooled them. If they knew that Zhang Ziqiang had entered the palace, there would be no other reason to say? Carus also knew that Zhang Ziqiang would not go out easily, so there must be something important to enter the palace, so he ordered them to bring them into the harem first.

Carus was chatting with someone in the Political Affairs Hall to play Tai Chi. Zhang Ziqiang sat alone in the small pavilion and looked around. He couldn't figure out the rules here. He saw a young woman coming here with her head down. When he was close, he didn't find him in the pavilion. He reached out and said hello:

"Hi, hello"

The woman raised her head suddenly, as if she was shocked. When she saw Zhang Ziqiang greeting her, she gently patted her chest with her right hand and said, "I'm scared to death!"

The woman raised her head and let Zhang Ziqiang see her face clearly. He was so beautiful! Her pretty face was beautiful, her chin was slightly pointed, her hair was swinged on her head, and she had a few golden hairpins in her clothes. She was dressed in a gorgeous and beautiful manner.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" the woman seemed to have reacted and asked coldly.

"So it's a cold beauty!" Zhang Ziqiang thought to himself, but replied: "I am Zhang Ziqiang, His Majesty the King asked me to wait for him here."

Leng Meiren asked in surprise: "Ah? Are you Zhang Ziqiang? The one who built the water pump?"

“It’s right down.”

When the Leng Beauty heard that he admitted it, she bowed, "I've seen Mr. Hou."

"Don't be polite," Zhang Ziqiang asked with both hands: "Who are you?"

"My name is Kalilu, the king's youngest daughter."

"Ah? Are you a little princess? Why did you salute me just now? You have committed a crime!" Zhang Ziqiang hurriedly made up for it.

Kalilu asked strangely: "You are the newly-appointed marquis, and I am a daughter and cannot be the one who can't be the one who can give you a gift, isn't it right to salute you?"

"Oh, this..."

He couldn't explain it, and then he remembered the royal family affairs that Amilia told him. The kings in this world had too many children and could move out of the palace as soon as they became adults. They managed industries across the country on behalf of the royal family. The prince was granted the first-class viscount, the prince was granted the second-class viscount, and so on.

Only after the death of the current king, will the nobles of the kingdom choose a new king from the descendants of the royal family. The princess is just a tool for marriage. She either marry ministers or marry into some big families, and in the future she can only be noble by her husband.

Of course, princesses have some advantages in getting married. The dowry is worth a lot. Generally, they can bring a family to marry some non-key industries so that they can maintain their status in their husband's family.

"I don't know much about these etiquettes, so I laughed at it." Zhang Ziqiang simply confessed that he was shallow in his knowledge.

"It doesn't matter. It's not surprising that those who are dedicated to studying knowledge don't understand these things." Kalilu automatically fulfilled the excuse for him.

Zhang Ziqiang suddenly thought of Carter, the former supervisor of Zhangzhuang. He was the fifth generation grandson of the king. He didn't know whether Carrus was the son or grandson of the former king. If Carrus had inherited his father's business, then Carter wouldn't have called Aunt Kalilu? Thinking of this, he couldn't help laughing and laughed out loud.

"Why don't you talk about anything about me?"

"Haha, nothing, do you know Carter? He was the former supervisor of my manor, and at that time he was still the Wangzhuang. According to him, he was the fifth generation grandson of the previous king. I wonder what should I call you by seniority?"

"Hehe, no one counts that way. He is the fifth generation grandson of my grandfather. When I come to my father, I am not a relative. They are all divided with their industries. This is called a family division among the people. Since the family division is divided, it has nothing to do with us."

Kalilu talked and laughed. The cold beauty was no longer cold, and Zhang Ziqiang was not always staring at others, so he had to pretend to be serious and listen carefully.

"Even if there is no separation, it will be considered as a relative within five generations. After five generations, it will not be considered as a relative. If you do, you can count it like you. Everyone in the whole kingdom can get a relative."

"Oh? Then if there is a person in the Jindan stage who has a sixth-generation grandson, what are they calling him?" Zhang Ziqiang asked curiously.

"Just just call it a name, or an official position, or a low-level name, a high-level name followed by an adult."

Zhang Ziqiang thought to himself, if my descendants call me directly, if I don’t slap his butt, at least I have to call him ancestor!

The two chatted about the customs and humanities of the Al Kingdom for a while. Carus finally finished playing Tai Chi and rushed to the harem. Seeing Zhang Ziqiang and Kalilu chatting happily, their eyes lit up, thinking that this was a good thing... But then he thought that Zhang Ziqiang had married again, so he shook his head and pressed the thought in his heart. Seeing that Carus was coming, Kalilu quickly got up and left. Without waiting for Carus to reply, he ran away.

"This girl, haha, my dear will enter the palace today, is there anything important?"

"Your Majesty, you have rewarded me with some experts a month ago. With their help, I have created another good thing!"

He said this to remind the king, look, the last time I asked you for people, it was not that I was greedy, but that I was really useful, so I created good things! The implication is that if I have more than one more, the more it will be better.

When Carus heard that he had made something again, he suddenly felt excited. He turned around and saw that no one on the left and right asked in a low voice: "What have you made again?"

"This... I can't explain it for you."

The two of them came to the well again. He called the guards to bring the rubber box, installed it in two strokes, and then put the crystals on it. Carus saw that he used the crystals, and knew that Zhang Ziqiang's cultivation level could not be set up, and he also believed that Ramsey and others also played a role under his hands.

"Bang!" Carus heard a sound, and a white air came out of the object, and then the sound became faster and faster. The machine was automatically pumping water with a water pump.

"What is this called? It's used for automatic water pumping?" Carus did not lose his composure this time. In his eyes, crystal stones are more precious than civilians and slaves in the Qi Refining Stage. He thought it was not cost-effective to use crystal stones to pump water.

"This is called a steam machine, its function... How can I say it? It's hard to describe it!"

Zhang Ziqiang originally made a pump. After the experiment, he saw that the boss was not very interested, so he couldn't think of other uses. His thoughts were relatively simple, but he still knew the use of the steam machine. The heart of the industry was opened immediately after Carus asked this. There were too many uses. Well, it was really hard to describe it.

Seeing the monster stretching and shrinking, Carus asked again: "Is this steam machine expensive? Do you use more crystals?"

After hearing this, Zhang Ziqiang thought to himself that being a boss in the world is a virtue, and the first thing he cares about is the cost issue!

"This machine is a bit wasteful in materials because it is built for the first time. The price is a little higher. It costs thirty gold coins. If it is built more, it will be lower. The amount of crystal has not been tested in detail. However, according to my calculations, it should be fine to use a third-level crystal for one or two consecutive months."

After he said that, he was still a little nervous, thinking that next time there was something new, it would be calculated before sending it. This place is not as good as on Earth. The boss on Earth is not satisfied with it and can only be fired. Now the boss is not satisfied, and he may even lose his life.

"What!"
