Lan Jingbai glanced at him and said, “i don’t know.”

Zeng Sanshui’s endless questions were immediately stuck in his throat. He felt extremely uncomfortable.

Lan Jingbai was boring. Zeng Sanshui looked at the other soldiers again.

Unexpectedly, these cavalry soldiers had the same att.i.tude as Lan Jingbai.

They had probably been instructed not to talk to them much.

Zeng Sanshui was helpless. Lu Ye rode a tall black horse over and said to them, “See the line on the road clearly. We can only take the right side and not the left.”

Zeng Sanshui was confused and asked him, “Why?”

Unlike the others, who did not say anything, Lu Ye said, “There will be other vehicles and people pa.s.sing on the left. The right lane is s.p.a.cious enough. Please strictly follow the rules of the Carefree Kingdom and stick to the right lane.¹¹

Zeng Sanshui pursed his lips. “There’s not even a feather on the road.”

However, after the trouble Bai Xinshui had created the previous night, no one dared to disobey Lu Ye.

The Ling Kingdom s diplomatic team was surrounded by the Carefree Kingdom’s cavalry and they hurried on their way in an orderly manner.

However, Zeng Sanshui felt like he was being detained as a prisoner.

After walking for a while, Zeng Sanshui saw a towering greenhouse and couldn’t help but ask Qu Yuanxian curiously, “What is that thing? Is it a rent? It s so big?”

Qu Yuanxian shook his head. “It shouldn’t be a tent.” He asked Lan Jingbai, who was beside Zeng Sanshui, “Jingbai, what is that?”

Lan Jingbai said calmly, “It’s a greenhouse for planting vegetables and fruits.”

Zeng Sanshui asked before Qu Yuanxian could, “Why did you guys have to make an unnecessary move to build a house for the vegetables and fruits?”

Lan Jingbai replied, “With a greenhouse, we can plant vegetables and fruits in winter.”

His calm tone revealed a shocking information.

Zeng Sanshui said in surprise, “You can plant even in winter?”

Lan Jingbai nodded, looking like he didn’t want to say anything else.

Qu Yuanxian originally wanted to exchange a few more words to him. Thinking of his current position, this probably involved the technical secrets of Carefree City. While he held his questions in his heart, he felt extremely regretful.

Zeng Sanshui did not think as much as he did. He asked Lu Ye, “Can 1 go to the greenhouse to take a look?”

He wanted to see what was different about the vegetables and fruits planted in the house.

Could it be that the people of Carefree Kingdom had planted some strange and biting plant?

It was impossible for Lu Ye to make the team stop just to satisfy Zeng Sanshui’s curiosity.

He replied, ’The greenhouse is very common in our Carefree Kingdom. General Zeng can stili see it when he reaches Carefree City. We have to reach the rest station as soon as possible so that we don’t have to sleep in the open tonight.” Zeng Sanshui thought of the soft bed and perfect facilities the previous night and felt that Lu Ye s arrangements were very good.

If they could stay at the rest station, why would they stay in a tent?

He nodded. “Alright, we’ll see when we reach Carefree City.”

In the blink of an eye, it was noon. It was time for them to eat.

it had to be said that the construction of the public facilities in Carefree Kingdom was really good.

There was also a pavilion specially built for pa.s.sers-by to rest for a short time.

It was quite huge and everyone could hide under it from rhe sun.

This area was an endless wilderness and there was no water to cook. They thought that they were going to eat cornbread, but Lu Ye got someone to set up a briquet stove and a big pot.

Zeng Sanshui stared at their charcoal stove and sized it up. “The design of this thing is ingenious. It can directly be used as a stove and to burn coal. Don’t you find it troublesome to make it like a honeycomb?”

Lu Ye glanced at him, as though judging him for being a country b.u.mpkin. “Making coal into a honeycomb can allow the coal to burn longer and save more energy. So what if it’s a little troublesome? Besides, we have a specialized workshop, so it’s not that difficult.”

Zeng Sanshui choked and muttered, “Everything has become so strange in your southern frontier.”

Bai s.h.i.+ning sneered. “Nonsense. It’s just changing the shape of the coal. How can it burn longer?”

Lu Ye could not be bothered to argue with him. Instead, Bai s.h.i.+ning got someone to bring the charcoal over and wanted to compete with him.

Bai s.h.i.+ning used high-quality golden-silk charcoal. Bai Xinshui glanced at their honeycomb charcoal and said, “Low-quality charcoal smells bad.” After saying that, she even glanced ar Lu Ye.

How could Lu Ye nor understand her sarcasm? He felt that this woman was really annoying.

It was unknown if Emperor Ling Hui had deliberately sent them to disgust them.

After a while, the golden-silk charcoal gradually turned to ashes, but the honeycomb charcoal used by Lu Ye and the others to stir-fry vegetables was Still burning very vigorously.

After comparing the two, Bai s.h.i.+ning was completely asking for humiliation.

Bai Xinshui tried to preserve Bai s.h.i.+ning’s dignity. “Father, they only burned for a long time because they used a deep stove and a lot of coal.”

Bai s.h.i.+ning felt that his face had more or less been saved. However, he saw Qu Yuanxian and Zeng Sanshui ask Lu Ye, “Why can making it into a honeycomb shape allow the coal to burn longer? What’s the principle?”

In Carefree Kingdom, one could easily find out what the specific ingredients of honeycomb charcoal were. The most important thing was the production technology of the factory, so Lu Ye did not hide it. He said, “When making honeycomb charcoal, there’s clay added in it. The clay can slow down the burning and allow the heat to be continuously released. It^rs made into a honeycomb shape because it’s not easy to ignite with clay. If it’s made into a honeycomb shape, the surface of the coal in contact with air will be larger. In addition, the honeycomb coal burns vertically. Each hole in the honeycomb is equivalent to an upward chimney’. The air can be constantly supplied, so rhe burning can continue.” After saying that, he said proudly, “You only need low-quality coal to make honeycomb charcoal, bur the efficiency of burning is several times that of your charcoal. It’s an amazing research result of our Carefree Kingdom.”

Lu Ye was just a general. When he suddenly said such profound and knowledgeable sentence, Qu Yuanxian and Zeng Sanshui were shocked.

It made Bai s.h.i.+ning’s face turn pale and red. Clearly, the last sentence was meant for him to hear by Lu Ye..
