Chapter 113 The Emperor's Great Joy and the Bounty
"Is this even something to learn?" Zheng Wenkai couldn't help but give Chu Chen a thumbs up.
That could cool down the sweltering heat would have to be a divine intervention.
Since he was unwilling to offer his guidance, Chu Chen's stature instantly rose.
Chu Chen: It's just installation. Even if you learn how, you can't build it yourself.
Besides, I'm too lazy to climb around in this sweltering heat. What if I fall off such a high roof?
So Zheng Wenkai immediately brought over a dozen or twenty people.
The group knelt down in front of Chu Chen, calling him "Master" repeatedly.
Chu Chen's face darkened at this sight. What was going on? He couldn't be a teacher.
He quickly helped everyone up, saying, "First, I don't accept apprentices. Second, once you've learned the skills, you'll be responsible for fixing any problems that arise."
After saying that, he immediately explained to everyone how to install and maintain these things.
With everyone full of enthusiasm, the event proceeded exceptionally smoothly.
All I could see were people going up to the roof, passing materials, and connecting wires.
Chu Chen would occasionally step forward to offer some guidance.
The photovoltaic panels he brought out this time totaled at least a hundred kilowatts.
It's enough for their daily use.
And those energy storage devices, that's a complete set of energy storage devices for the supermarket.
Even in winter, if the emperor wanted to turn on the heating in his room, it wouldn't be a problem at all.
It took seven days to build and install all the solar panels.
Under the scorching sun, the solar panels convert sunlight into electricity, which is then stored in energy storage devices.
After everything was finished, Zhou Shixun went to his study.
Chu Chen held the air conditioner remote and pressed the button on a cabinet air conditioner.
As a cool breeze blew by, everyone present was pleasantly surprised.
"Hahaha, finally we can say goodbye to this sweltering heat! Someone, there's a reward for you."
Zhou Shixun felt the cool breeze and laughed excitedly.
Holy crap, this place has money in addition to jade mines? That's really unexpected.
"Qingyun Chuchen, with his divine skills, has taken away the heat of the scorching sun and brought coolness to the world. He is awarded five thousand gold coins and a mansion."
Holy crap, five thousand taels of gold? That's enough for a house! That's a steal!
Although I live in Mashan Village, houses in Beijing are worth a fortune.
"Chu Chen, aren't you going to thank me?"
After reading the text, Eunuch Wei looked at Chu Chen, who remained unmoved, and couldn't help but remind him.
"This humble subject, Chu Chen, thanks Your Majesty for your great favor."
Receiving the scroll, which resembled an imperial edict, Chu Chen bowed in gratitude.
"Alright, Chu Chen, where else can you find coolness besides my imperial study?"
After the ceremony of bestowing titles and rewards was completed, Zhou Shixun resumed the attitude he had shown in Mashan Village.
He asked Chu Chen.
"Your Majesty, besides this Imperial Study, there are many other places that have been fitted with this cool breeze, but due to the limited materials, it is not possible to provide this cool breeze in all places."
"But the places that need to be illuminated will light up at night."
There are too many solar streetlights and household lighting fixtures to list.
This was something Chu Chen did casually; since they had given him such a large jade mine, he couldn't be stingy.
In addition, since the power was still sufficient, Chu Chen also placed a large freezer in the Imperial Study for him.
A whole box of popsicles and other snacks was also packed.
Although he was not afraid of the Emperor of Great Xia, becoming his friend would certainly bring many benefits.
So the group had no mind to deal with important state affairs that day and simply waited for night to fall in the imperial study.
At night, Chu Chen was led by a palace maid towards a mansion.
"What did you say? The Empress invited me to dinner?"
Chu Chen spoke to the palace maid as he walked.
"Young Master Chu, Her Majesty the Empress has specially sent a maid to invite you to dine with her in gratitude."
After saying that, he continued walking forward.
"Um, wait a minute, where's the restroom?"
Chu Chen quickly grabbed the palace maid and asked.
"Young master, what is a toilet?"
"Um, is this the restroom area?"
"Hehe, young master, you mean the urinal, right? This servant will take you there."
It's so awkward to have a girl take you to the restroom.
But there was no other way; I had to go.
Your Majesty, since it's our first meeting, I should at least give you something as a gift.
When Chu Chen came out, his backpack was quite bulging.
Under the pretext of going to the toilet, he rushed into the space and took out some small mirrors, perfumes, and other items.
"Young Master Chu, let's hurry up and not miss Her Majesty the Empress's appointed time."
"Alright, please lead the way."
After saying that, he slung his backpack over his shoulder and followed the palace maid toward the palace.
Upon entering the room, one could see three people sitting at a huge table, with Eunuch Wei standing to one side.
One was Zhou Shixun, another was Zhou Heng, and the third was a woman with an elegant and dignified appearance.
That must be the Empress without a doubt.
"This humble subject, Chu Chen, pays respects to Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Empress, and the Eighth Prince."
Chu Chen bowed to the three of them and said.
"Alright, Chu boy, this is a family dinner, there's no need for so many formalities. Come and sit down."
Zhou Shixun pointed to the chair next to Zhou Heng and said.
At this moment, the woman beside him spoke up: "Your name is Chu Chen, how did you recognize me as the Empress at a glance?"
"Your Majesty, may I ask, where else in this world can one find someone as graceful and dignified as you, someone who makes one feel as warm and motherly as you at first glance?"
"As the mother of this great Xia, I was immediately captivated by your aura."
This flattery made the Empress burst into laughter.
Not only the Empress, but even Zhou Shixun and Zhou Heng gave him a thumbs up in their hearts.
"Haha, Chu...you really know how to talk. The Emperor just said that this is a family banquet, so call her Auntie, it will sound more intimate."
"Thank you for your kind words, Aunt. I came in a hurry today and did not prepare any valuable gifts. Please accept these few small items as my way of showing my respect to you."
After saying that, Chu Chen took out a bottle of women's perfume from his backpack and handed a mirror to the Empress.
This action earned him another thumbs up from Zhou Shixun and Zhou Heng.
Before I'd even taken a bite of food, this gift paved the way.
"Oh, this bottle is made of glass. What's inside?"
The Empress picked up the bottle and asked Chu Chen.
"Aunt, this is called perfume. When sprayed on a person, it can give off a long-lasting fragrance."
After saying that, Chu Chen opened the lid and sprayed some air into it.
In an instant, a fragrant breeze wafted by, captivating everyone present.
Even the palace maids, who usually dared not even breathe loudly, greedily inhaled the fragrant air.
Seeing that everyone was engrossed in the perfume, Chu Chen explained to the Empress again how to use it and where to spray it.
No woman doesn't love beauty, and no woman doesn't love fragrance.
"Haha, it's rare to find such a filial nephew, so I'll accept it. Is this a mirror?"
After putting away the perfume, the Queen picked up the mirror on the table.
"Huh, is this mirror also made of glass?"
After saying that, he looked at his own face...
