Lu Ye smiled and said, “Plastic bottle.”
Zeng Sanshui was filled with curiosity and asked, “What material is it made of?”
The plastic bottle was processed from oil extraction. This was not a secret in the southern frontier.
Even if Zeng Sanshui was told, he would not understand.
Lu Ye did not want to waste his breath because Zeng Sanshui had too many questions.
If he answered, there would definitely be another question.
He did not want to answer, but he saw Qu Yuanxian and the others looking at him curiously.
Lu Ye remembered that they were envoys and it was necessary to promote the achievements that their country was proud of.
He held the plastic bottle and said, “This is a plastic bottle made of black gold water.”
“Black Gold Water?”
Everyone looked unconvinced.
The black gold water was black, oily, and smelly. It could only be used as a flammable material. How could it be made into such a beautiful bottle?
However, Lu Ye said, “There’s a special substance in the black gold water. We call it naphtha. It’s the main raw material for making plastic. After extraction from the black gold water and processing, it can become plastic. Plastics are very common in our Carefree Kingdom. You will often see food, medical packaging, and daily necessities made from plastic.”
They could understand every word that Lu Ye said. But when combined, it was strange and puzzling.
Zeng Sanshui stared at the plastic bottle in his hand with a puzzled expression, as if doubting that this thing was really made of black gold water.
He really could not imagine how the people of Carefree Kingdom had caused the black gold water to become like this.
However, it had to be said that the people of Carefree Kingdom were too smart.
He even wanted to bring such a plastic bottle back to his country and place it at home to worship as an ancestor.
However, the people of Carefree Kingdom was used to it.
Zeng Sanshui once again felt the difference between the southern frontier and their Ling Kingdom.
Qu Yuanxian was surprised that even Lu Ye knew such a detailed production process. “Has General Lu seen plastic production with his own eyes?”
Lu Ye laughed and said, “When this thing first came out, we were also confused. As usual, the Imperial Court will send someone to explain the benefits and disadvantages of plastic. That’s how we all know.”
Qu Yuanxian could not help but be puzzled. “There’s disadvantages?”
In his opinion, this thing only had benefits.
It was convenient to carry, beautiful, and had high functionality. It could perfectly seal food, medicine bottles, cosmetics, and so on.
Lu Ye said, “After it burns, it will produce gases that pollute the environment. Therefore, our Carefree Kingdom has a rule that we can’t burn plastic casually. We have to recycle and use it again. We will collect plastic bottles like this that have been used and pull them to the waste treatment plant for degradation and separation.”
Qu Yuanxian was stunned. He had only left not long ago, but he felt like a lifetime had passed.
After everyone gulped down the water, Lu Ye’s soldiers automatically flattened the bottle and placed it in a box that was specially for recycling.
Zeng Sanshui and the others followed suit. However, they felt that it was a pity and asked Lu Ye, “Can we bring the plastic bottle back to Ling Kingdom?”
Lu Ye said, “It’s up to you. As long as you don’t throw it anywhere.” He thought of something and reminded them, “In our Carefree Kingdom, if you’re discovered throwing trash, not only will you face a fine, but you’ll also be asked to do volunteer work. This is so that you’ll fully understand the importance of protecting the environment. Don’t be caught in our capital city. The punishment will be even worse.”
Zeng Sanshui had seen the freedom of the citizens of the Carefree Kingdom. He did not expect them to be so strict with conserving the environment.
Meeting Lu Ye’s serious gaze, Zeng Sanshui hurriedly nodded and instructed his subordinates carefully.
Suddenly, Qu Yuanxian saw some simplified words on the paper on the wall.
When he left, Zhao Yunning had yet to introduce the simplified words, so he asked Lu Ye, “Is this your local characters?”
Lu Ye explained, “These are simplified Chinese characters. It says that ice water, mineral water, instant noodles, sausage, and pickled vegetables are being sold.”
Qu Yuanxian came to a realization. It was no wonder there were some characters that looked familiar. It turned out to be simplified Chinese characters.
It was indeed much simpler to write like this.
However, Bai Shining mocked, “How dare you change something left behind by our ancestor!”
Lu Ye looked at him and retorted, “That’s better than a country full of illiterate people.”
Bai Shining glared. “A group of boorish people. It’s useless even if you learn it.”
Lu Ye was about to flare up when Qu Yuanxian hurriedly pulled Bai Shining away. Zeng Sanshui also diverted Lu Ye’s attention and asked him, “There’s actually ice water here. 1 want a bottle.”
Lu Ye’s expression softened a little. He said to the lady boss, “Give him a bottle of ice water.”
The lady boss quickly took out a bottle of frozen mineral water from a large metal box at the back and recorded it in the account book.
Zeng Sanshui thought that the lady boss would dig out some ice from the cellar. In the end, she directly gave him a bottle of frozen mineral water.
He looked confused. “How did she do that?”
Lu Ye smiled and said, “We have a machine to make ice. It’s not difficult.”
Didn’t that mean that the machine that made ice could make ice at any time and as much as they wanted?
Zeng Sanshui once again suspected that he was actually having a strange dream.
If it was not a dream, the difference between them and the Carefree Kingdom would be too huge.
Even commoners could use ice in this desert.
Zeng Sanshui was extremely curious about the machine that made ice. “Can 1 take a look at that machine?”
Lu Ye nodded. “Sure.”
Zeng Sanshui entered the house and looked carefully around the big refrigerator.
He really could not figure out how such a small box could be used to make ice.
The lady boss opened the fridge and he stuck his head in. He immediately felt the cold air on his face. It was especially cool.
When Zeng Sanshui saw the lady boss freeze a watermelon in the fridge, he could not help but be envious at the fresh and watery watermelon.
The lady boss glanced at him. “It’s not for sale. We eat it ourselves.”
Zeng Sanshui revealed a trace of regret. He also wanted to eat iced watermelons. These people were too good at enjoying themselves.
He had already become a general and was in charge of hundreds of thousands of troops. He did not even know how to enjoy himself as well as them.
Lu Ye could tell what he was thinking. “After we leave Xuya and reach Baye, you can eat as many melons as you want.”
Zeng Sanshui looked happy. He looked at the fridge and asked, “How does it make ice?”
Lu Ye did not understand all of it, so he casually said, “You have to use electricity. Let’s go, the horses still have to be fed at the rest station.”
The team arrived at the rest station before dark. Zeng Sanshui looked into the distance and saw many huge telephone poles on the road ahead.
There were also people renovating their courtyard.
Zeng Sanshui looked at the wires on the man and asked curiously, “What are you doing?”
One of them looked up at him. “Installing a signal device.”
“A signal device?”
It was another strange phrase again.
Zeng Sanshui was about to ask what the signal device was when he heard the person say excitedly, “It’s connected, it’s connected!! Hurry up and try if the phone works..”
