Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge
Chapter 1023 From the Heart
After hearing Xiao Yang's words, Xiao Ce became very curious about the Dragon Kingdom City.
As they spoke, they had already walked up to the cars.
As they were speaking, a man dressed in a standard suit and white gloves, looking like a chauffeur from a modern era, said to Xiao Yang, "Lord Xiao Yang, distinguished guests, please get in the car."
They really put a lot of effort into replicating the drivers' outfits.
Seeing Xiao Ce following a group of people, all heading towards the car.
The driver looked embarrassed and said to Xiao Ce, "Lord Xiao Yang, this car can only carry three people."
Da Lei then said, "Prince Anyang, I must protect you... so I will definitely stay with you... and the Princess will definitely stay with you too... so you can get on the next bus..."
Xiaoyue was also a little indignant: "What about me... I also want to protect my master... Why can you ride it, but I have to get on the next one?"
Da Lei smiled at Xiao Ce and then said, "Because I'm better at fighting than you?"
Da Lei's words put Xiao Yue in a bind.
However, I was still somewhat unconvinced.
Xiao Ce then said to Da Lei, "Let Xiao Yang ride with us in this carriage. Da Lei, you, Xiao Yue, and the others can ride in the carriage behind."
After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Da Lei looked embarrassed: "Your Highness, isn't it me who needs to protect you?"
Xiao Ce smiled at Da Lei and then said, "At this moment, it seems we don't really need your protection... Don't worry, there's no danger here..."
Da Lei's expression turned somewhat awkward upon hearing Xiao Ce's words.
Xiao Ce smiled and said to Da Lei, "Don't worry, Da Lei, you've seen how things have changed along the way... Don't worry..."
After hearing what Xiao Ce said, Da Lei naturally didn't waste any more words.
He said to Xiaoyue with a hint of schadenfreude, "Alright, now you have company..."
Xiaoyue smiled and looked at Yin Pan'er.
Yin Pan'er smiled at Xiaoyue and then said, "You can stay in the back. Actually, with the current level of weaponry, if someone really wanted to assassinate someone, no one could protect them... it's all up to fate!"
Xiaoyue nodded after hearing what Yin Pan'er said.
At this moment, Xiao Yang spoke up, "Brother, sister-in-law, you can rest assured... We've already set up sentries along the way and eliminated any danger. Furthermore, the Roman Empire was one of the first Western empires to ban guns before Lingas, so this area has always been a safe place..."
As Xiao Ce listened to Xiao Yang's words, he went inside, nodding as he went.
This sedan is really nice; it even has genuine leather sofas, and the entire interior is wrapped in high-quality, subtly sheen leather. The leather looks very classy...
Yin Pan'er had never seen anything like it before. Sitting on it, she asked Xiao Ce with great curiosity, "Your Highness, do you mean that once you sit on this thing, you won't need a horse to pull you? You can walk on it?"
Xiao Ce nodded.
Upon hearing this, Yin Pan'er was full of amazement.
Xiao Yang said to Xiao Ce, "Your Highness, Your Highness, this isn't anything special. In fact, in our Xiao Kingdom, this kind of vehicle is already quite common thanks to the promotion by the Tianji Academy... At first, we thought those engines were particularly difficult to produce, and even if we managed to manufacture them here, they weren't quite right. Later, after I learned that it was already widespread in our Xiao Kingdom, I directly imported those engines..."
Then Xiao Yang said to Xiao Ce, "Brother, don't worry, I didn't take advantage of our country. I bought every single engine at an exorbitant price..."
Upon hearing Xiao Yang's words, Xiao Ce exclaimed in astonishment, "An astronomical price? How astronomical is it?"
Xiao Yang said to Xiao Ce, "One hundred thousand taels of gold!"
Xiao Ce's eyes widened, and then he said to Xiao Yang, "Isn't this car a Dark Light brand? Didn't you rip off the Dark Light brand?"
Xiao Yang laughed and said, "No way, no way... This engine is the heart of the car, and this Dark Light brand car is worth about one million taels of gold..."
Xiao Ce's eyes widened, and then he said to Xiao Yang, "What the heck? How much does it cost? So expensive? And people actually buy it?"
Xiao Yang said to Xiao Ce, "Brother, you underestimate the rich people here. These Western bandits are incredibly wealthy. They are the epitome of having money to burn... This amount of money is nothing to them."
Xiao Ce said to Xiao Yang, "That's true, these people have robbed the entire Western Hemisphere... So, I think selling a car for one million taels of gold is a bargain..."
After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Xiao Yang smiled and nodded, then said, "That's indeed the case..."
As they spoke, their car started moving, completely different from what Xiao Ce had imagined.
I thought this generation would be simpler, with things like shock absorption and sitting inside would be torture.
But no, on the contrary, it was very comfortable.
Xiao Ce said to Xiao Yang, "Were the blueprints for this kind of vehicle also given to you by the Tianji Academy?"
Upon hearing Xiao Ce's words, Xiao Yang smiled and nodded, "That's right, that's indeed the case..."
Xiao Ce nodded, indicating that this was not surprising, since he had already put a fairly complete shock absorption system on the carriage before.
Actually, judging from the design of this car and the level of completeness of the finished product, the design by the Tianji Institute is already very advanced...
It seems that the Tianji Academy has not been idle during this time... Moreover, their progress has exceeded his expectations.
"It seems our Tianji Academy is making great progress! Are you familiar with them? Did you research their situation when you wrote to them?"
Upon hearing that the Heavenly Mystery Institute had been mentioned, Xiao Ce immediately asked about it.
After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Xiao Yang nodded and then said, "Brother, they did ask me about your situation... but they didn't tell me directly. They probably still don't quite trust me... Actually, getting this engine was a huge undertaking. I had to get Han Da to vouch for me, and then I offered an exorbitant price before they couldn't refuse..."
"However, anyway, I got the news from Handa... In the whole of East Asia, specifically in Xiao Kingdom, the changes are earth-shattering... Handa said that Xiao Kingdom's weapons are not even as advanced as they are in terms of widespread adoption."
"However, Xiao Country is now the leading power in East Asia. Even those outdated weapons are highly sought after by other countries... Moreover, Han Da said that those airships have undergone a major upgrade. They are said to be faster and can even turn. Han Da also said that they have invented many other flying machines... Of course, Han Da only mentioned these things briefly in his letter... But as the saying goes, you can see the whole leopard from a single spot..."
After hearing Xiao Yang's words, Xiao Ce smiled and then said, "That's right, now that you mention it, I'm curious too..."
Xiao Yang said to Xiao Ce, "By the way, brother, if you're curious, I have their contact information. You can write to them directly, but it might take at least 20 days for a round trip..."
Xiao Ce nodded to Xiao Yang: "I probably won't be able to stay here for another 20 days..."
Upon hearing Xiao Ce's words, Xiao Yang smiled broadly and said, "Brother, there's no rush. You'll know when you return. However, since you're the one telling them, they're merely putting your writings into practice... So, even if you find out, it will be expected, and you certainly won't be as surprised as we are..."
Xiao Ce chuckled and said, "You're quite the smooth talker... However, even though these things are what I've imagined... and I've seen them before, I'm still amazed that they can be replicated here... Just like this car... Seeing these things in this setting is quite astonishing..."
Xiao Yang smiled and nodded, then said, "Brother, it's not just bragging. You know I'm a huge fan of yours, and all my praise comes from the bottom of my heart..."
