I have been a county magistrate for ten years. My subordinates insist on giving me a yellow robe.

"Gentlemen, what do you need?" The waiter looked at Chen Liu strangely.

Are you that scary?

The waiter immediately touched his face and found that he had regular features and was very handsome. At least he was about three times as handsome as our county magistrate.

Duanmu Xiongtu pointed at the square object in the room and said in a deep voice: "What is this? What's inside it? Why is it making a sound?"

The waiter came over immediately and was about to explain when Chen Liu at the side spoke haltingly.

"Don't come over here. If you come over here again, I will fight you!"

The waiter was completely bewildered. What on earth was this guy doing? One guy was letting me through, the other wasn't. So, should I go through or not?

But the county magistrate had long said that the customer is God, although we don’t know what God is.

After thinking it over, the waiter finally leaned forward slightly and put his upper body into the room.

"My dear guests, this is the latest high-tech product developed in our county, called a movie viewing machine."

"Movie viewer? What is this?" Duanmu Xiongtu frowned.

As the emperor of a country, all the land under heaven belongs to the king, and all the people in the world are the king's subjects. He has seen all kinds of strange things.

But it just so happened that in this small inn in Taiping County, there were all kinds of rare things that he had never seen before.

"Sir, please listen to me and I will explain it to you slowly. There is a mechanism inside the movie viewer." The waiter pointed to a certain part of the movie viewer with great effort, but due to the long distance, it was quite difficult to explain.

"Come in and talk." Duanmu Xiongtu spoke immediately.

The waiter looked at Chen Liu, hesitating whether to go in.

"Just treat what he said just now as shit." Duanmu Xiongtu's face was calm.

The waiter came in immediately and pointed to the place where the video player connected to the table and said:

"Sir, please look here. This is empty. There's a mirror underneath, connected to the mirror outside. It can reflect sunlight directly in. When you press the switch, the thing inside that was originally used to block the sunlight will disappear, and the sunlight will shine in, and the movie viewer will light up."

"There are also mechanisms inside the movie viewer. They are little figures made of wooden boards, and their hands and feet are controlled by the mechanisms. When the sunlight shines in, they move."

Yuanmu Xiongtu breathed a sigh of relief. So that's how it is. Apart from some subtleties, there's nothing amazing about it.

But the name of the movie viewing machine is really quite appropriate.

"What's with that sound? Could it be that there are two little people inside?" Chen Liu asked immediately.

The waiter scratched his head, thought carefully, and then said, "Sir, I don't know about this thing either. It was made by our county magistrate."

"But don't worry, there's no one in here. There's just something that can collect sounds and play them back. I heard it's very expensive."

Duanmu Xiongtu nodded slightly: "I see."

Although I don’t understand some of it, the Great Duan Dynasty is vast and rich in resources, so it’s normal that I don’t know some of it.

"Is there anything else for you two? If not, I'll be leaving first. You can call me through the cup if you need anything."

"Wait!" Chen Liu immediately stood up and walked quickly outside. He pointed at the large cup and asked, "What is this cup? There's no mechanism inside, so why is there a sound coming out?"

"Oh, you mean this? This is the sound transmission device that the county magistrate recently made. It can transmit sound over here. Even though there was a sound coming from you just now, the person you are talking to is actually on the first floor."

Duanmu Xiongtu's expression changed, and he asked anxiously, "How far can this sound transmission device transmit?"

The entire Great Duan Dynasty was so huge that sometimes it would take a year or two for an order to be passed on.

There is no time to deal with any emergency, but if there is such a sound transmission device, it can save a lot of manpower and resources.

"A few hundred meters at most."

Duanmu Xiongtu was a little disappointed. A few hundred meters would be enough even if he just shouted loudly.

"Okay, it's okay, you can go back." Duanmu Xiongtu waved his hand.

The waiter walked to the door and suddenly turned back: "By the way, my two guests, there are some local specialties in the other room. Let me introduce them to you."

As he spoke, the waiter pushed open a door and pointed at a ceramic object and said:

"This is for going to the toilet. Don't drink the water inside. When you're done, press this button and water will rush out to wash away the filth."

"But don't throw in your butt wipes or anything else. Also, you're strictly prohibited from holding down the button."

Chen Liu came over curiously and asked, "What will happen if you hold it down?"

The waiter looked at Chen Liu with a dark face and said, "You'd better not try. Otherwise, all the feces and urine in the inn won't be flushed down, and it will suck back the feces that have already flowed out. Then the inn will become a latrine."

"Don't ask me how I know this, you can't do this!"

Chen Liu immediately twisted his mouth and said, "Dare to threaten me?"

Boy, believe it or not, I will take you to the East Factory to be a eunuch. Don’t you want your life anymore?

Duanmu Xiongtu sighed for no reason and let the waiter leave.

Looking at the facilities in the room, he smiled bitterly.

A small inn in Taiping County is even more unpredictable than his own palace.

Moreover, all the things here were made by Jiang Yuan.

What kind of person is Jiang Yuan?

"Chen Liu, pack up and let's go out for a walk."

"Master, don't you want to first see what that one-stop service is?" Chen Liu said in a low voice.

Duanmu Xiongtu shook his head slightly: "Let's talk about it when we get back. It's still early anyway."

After the two of them packed up, they went downstairs. The shopkeeper immediately greeted them, "You two, would like to take a look around Taiping County. Do you need someone to introduce you to something?"

Duanmu Xiongtu smiled and nodded, quite authentic, worthy of being an inn that costs two hundred taels of silver a night.

The waiter who had just come to the two of them trotted over and held out his hand: "My two guests, the introduction fee is ten taels of silver."

Chen Liu's eyes were red and he angrily threw a silver ingot to the waiter.

Scam! It's so damn shady. Even just showing me the way requires ten taels of silver. You could just rob me directly, but you still insisted on showing me the way. You're such a nice guy.

The three of them walked out of the inn, and the cries of various vendors around them suddenly came.

"Tanghulu candied haws!"

"Shredded chicken and pork rolls, roujiamo!"

Duanmu Xiongtu looked at the people strolling leisurely on the street with satisfaction.

The world is peaceful and everyone lives and works in peace and contentment.

Although he did not govern it personally, Taiping County was considered part of the territory of the Great Duan Dynasty, which was equivalent to governing it himself.

The three of them had not walked far when they heard singing coming from a store.

"You love me, I love you, Taiping milk tea is sweet~"

Duanmu Xiongtu and the other man immediately showed a puzzled expression. What the hell is this?

Just when the two were puzzled, the waiter's excited voice came out.

"You two are so lucky to have bumped into our county magistrate in the teahouse. If you hurry, you might even be able to hear some storytelling!"

Chen Liu couldn't help but sneer. After all, he was from a small place. What's wrong with storytelling? What's so strange about it?

Duanmu Xiongtu had an idea: "Let's go over and take a look and see who this Jiang Yuan is."

The three of them walked all the way to the teahouse, which was already packed with people. Only a child's voice could be heard from inside the teahouse.

"Master, Master, what are you talking about today?"

Suddenly, a clear and bright laugh was heard in the teahouse:

"Haha! Last time we were talking about black smoke rising from the sky and Emperor Desolate fighting Megatron!"

"Today we're going to talk about Wang Zhaojun's seven journeys into the Kingdom of Light, her slaying of Tiga and her capture of Taro!"

"Emperor Ye Tian cleverly used the self-torture trick and killed Yan Poxi with three punches!"
