The first county magistrate in history

The three of them chatted for a long time before Xia Mochu and Li Qiuhan left the inn.

Seeing that it was getting late, Xia Mochu gave up the idea of going to find Qin Zheng immediately and decided to go tomorrow.

The two returned to the inn.

At the end of summer, I can’t wait to take a shower and try the magic of soap.

Li Qiuhan went downstairs to prepare: "Waiter, we need to take a bath, prepare two buckets of water."

The waiter, who was in his twenties, smiled and said, "Sir, please call me waiter!"

"Waiter?" Li Qiuhan felt it was new.

The waiter explained, "Our lord requested that we call it that. After all, this is the county government posthouse, and it needs to be distinguished from ordinary places. This way it appears more formal. Waiters are the people who serve guests."

Li Qiuhan found it very interesting. This Qin Zheng was really good at making things happen.

The waiter continued, "Our master has specifically instructed that you two are our county's VIP guests. You must be received with the highest standards."

"VIP guest?" Li Qiuhan's knowledge blind spot was touched upon again.

After the waiter's explanation, Li Qiuhan was convinced. This Qin Zheng really has some ideas. What's wrong with his head?

"Are there any VIP benefits?" Li Qiuhan asked.

The waiter said, "The whole county is under disguise now. Many things cannot be revealed, but you two are not among them. However, you must keep it a secret! Our master is most afraid of promotion, and we are reluctant to see our master promoted."

Li Qiuhan was extremely convinced. Are Qin Zheng and the people in Hongtong County all fools?

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone!" Li Qiuhan promised.

I thought to myself, humph, His Majesty is upstairs, the more you expose yourself, the faster you will be finished.

The waiter said, "I'll go back to your room with you. Actually, the shower room is right inside the room."

"Ah? It's in our room, how come I didn't know about it?" Li Qiuhan was shocked.

Xia Mochu is struggling to decide which soap to use. I feel that all of them are good and I want to try them all.

Suddenly I saw Li Qiuhan leading the waiter in, and I was very puzzled as to why he was brought in.

At this time, the waiter walked to the bed and pushed it hard.

When the bed was pushed away, a door was revealed at the back.

Under the astonished gazes of Xia Mochu and Li Qiuhan, the waiter opened the door and went in to light the candle. Then he turned and called to Li Qiuhan, "Dear guest, come here."

Li Qiuhan walked over without knowing why.

The waiter pointed to a round wooden barrel hanging on the wall and said, "Let me tell you, this is called a water heater, and the one on the roof is called a rain shower. The whole thing is called a shower."

These two switches, red for hot water and blue for cold water, allow you to adjust the temperature yourself. Then you can take a shower. It's so comfortable, like a massage!

"Is it so magical?" Li Qiuhan was surprised: "Where do the hot and cold water come from?"

She didn't see the heating stove!

The waiter said proudly, "We have a boiler room on the top floor. Hot and cold water will be pumped into this tank through bamboo tubes."

"Boiler room?" Li Qiuhan heard a new word.

Xia Mochu, who had been listening for a while, asked in surprise, "Don't you need a bathtub?"

The waiter smiled and said, "We don't use bathtubs anymore in Hongtong County. We use bathtubs. They're just long, porcelain pieces that you can lie down in."

Xia Mochu and Li Qiuhan were fascinated. How comfortable would it be to lie down and take a bath?

Xia Mochu suddenly pointed at a small white pool in the corner and asked, "Is this a bathtub? It's too small, isn't it?"

The waiter couldn't help laughing: "This is not a bathtub, it's called a squat toilet."

"Squatty potty?"

Xia Mochu and Li Qiuhan were completely stunned. They heard so many new words today.

The waiter patiently explained, "It's where you go to the bathroom. After you're done, do you see this footrest? Just step on it and water will come out to wash away the dirt. Actually, we adults originally planned to install a toilet so you can sit down to use the toilet. However, most people are used to squatting, not sitting."

Although Xia Mochu was a little embarrassed by Xiao Er's words, she had to admit that Qin Zheng was really inventive. How did he come up with this?

Asked, "Why don't we have a bathtub?"

She couldn't wait to try taking a bath while lying down.

The waiter said, "My family's masters said that women can't use bathtubs, and bathtubs are not suitable for women. They will be infected with many diseases. But men can. There are bathtubs in the men's room."

How could they be so susceptible to disease? Xia Mochu and Li Qiuhan were puzzled, but they didn't dare to ask.

"Enjoy your meal, sir. If you need anything, please call me." He pointed to a trumpet-shaped paper tube with a thin string attached to it at the headboard and said, "No need to come downstairs to find me. If you need anything, just pick up this megaphone and tell us your room number and what you want. The receptionist can hear it."

"What? A megaphone?" Li Qiuhan exclaimed.

"Just a paper tube and a rope can transmit the sound to the downstairs?" Xia Mochu couldn't believe it.

The child laughed and said, "There's also a paper tube on the counter that's connected to the one you have here, and it can also transmit the sound up, absolutely true."

"There is such a magical thing? Was it invented by your parents?" Xia Mochu felt it was unreal.

The waiter nodded. "Yes, they were all invented by my parents. However, the sound transmission distance of this megaphone is limited. My parents said that they would invent a telephone in the future, which would allow us to talk even across thousands of miles!"

Can it still be like this?

Xia Mochu and Li Qiuhan are simply incredible.

Li Qiuhan suddenly asked, "Doesn't that mean any noise in our room can be heard at the counter?"

The waiter smiled and said, "When using the megaphone, please straighten the string, otherwise the sound won't be transmitted!"

Xia Mochu and Li Qiuhan understood.

Li Qiuhan rushed to the door and said, "Miss, please wait upstairs."

Xia Mochu immediately understood what Li Qiuhan meant.

I still looked at the paper tube with some disbelief.

The waiter smiled faintly, as this is what most first-time customers do.

soon.

"Miss, can you hear me?" The rope on the bedside table suddenly vibrated, and Li Qiuhan's voice came from the paper tube.

Xia Mochu's eyes widened instantly.

seeing is believing!

He excitedly grabbed the paper tube and shouted, "Qiuhan, I heard it, it's real!"

"Miss, this is so fun, your voice hasn't changed." Li Qiuhan's excited voice came.

"Yeah, such a good thing... hehe." Xia Mochuxin said, "Good for you, Qin Zheng. Such a good thing, you didn't tell me earlier."

"Miss, the weather is so nice today!" Li Qiuhan couldn't let go and kept making small talk.

"Yes, the sky is clear and cloudless..."

"Miss……"

Both of them started talking on the phone for a long time without any prior arrangement.

At this moment, at the end of summer, I was convinced!

This design is simply perfect.

This idea is simply unimaginable!

This Qin Zheng is a great talent!

Seeing this, the waiter smiled and left.

Li Qiuhan returned to the room, still in a dream: "Miss, is it really so magical?"

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it!" Xia Mochu said as he walked into the bathroom and turned on the blue switch of the water heater.

Wow!

The rain above his head sprayed cool water all over Xia Mochu's body. Suddenly, his clothes stuck to his body, and the spring scenery underneath was faintly visible.

Xia Mochu excitedly shouted: "Hahaha...is this true?"

Wow!

Xia Mochu suddenly heard the sound of water behind him. Turning around, he saw Li Qiuhan stepped on the pedal next to the toilet, and a stream of clear water swirled out of the hole in the squat toilet.

"Miss, Miss, this is amazing. We don't even have such a good thing in our palace!" Li Qiuhan shouted excitedly and stepped on it again.

Xia Mochu was also excited. "I was wondering why Qin Zheng didn't want to leave this small county town. I see. This is simply a paradise. I'll ask him to install a set for me in the palace."

Li Qiuhan asked worriedly, "Miss, will he agree?"

Xia Mochu put his hands on his hips and said, "Don't worry, I have him under control!"

Although Li Qiuhan didn't know how her master had captured Qin Zheng, she quickly said, "Miss, don't forget me!"

after an hour.

The waiter knocked on the door.

With a mournful look on his face, he said to Li Qiuhan, "Dear guest, you guys are using too much water. Our boilers can't supply it anymore."

"..." Li Qiuhan was very embarrassed. Her master was having fun in there, but she didn't dare to do anything about it!

Li Qiuhan had no choice but to take out two taels of silver, handed it to the waiter, and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Doesn't my young lady find this new and exciting?"

The waiter smiled bitterly: "I understand!"

He took the money and said, "Don't get me wrong, we are not allowed to accept tips. However, we can charge water fees and overtime pay. After all, we have worked hard, and this is the income from our labor."

After that, he left.

Li Qiuhan snorted and thought to himself, is this so high-sounding?

Another half an hour passed, and suddenly the bathroom door opened.

Xu Xiamochu's pretty face flushed, and she walked out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel: "Hahaha, this is really fun, Qiuhan, go quickly!"

Whoosh, Li Qiuhan rushed in impatiently.

Soon, Li Qiuhan's excited voice came from inside: "Miss, this is so much fun, it really feels like a massage..."

The next morning, Xia Mochu took Li Qiuhan and hurried to find Qin Zheng without even having breakfast.

Li Qiuhan asked worriedly, "Miss, can Qin Zheng cook us delicious food? Can he allow us to go to those places?"

Xia Mochu snorted coldly: "He dares not obey?"

Li Qiuhan smiled bitterly, wondering where the young lady got the confidence from. Qin Zheng didn't even know that you were His Majesty.
