Myth: Heaven and Earth

Chapter 166 Bai Xiuzhu

The people in Zaoshan Town should be happy.

They have telegrams for communication, trains for travel, and electric lights for every household - all of these are the achievements of Lu Heng in the past six years.

The use of electricity, Lu Heng wasted a lot of strength.

It took Lu Heng, Zhu Dachui and the students two years to think and think about all aspects of damming the river and building a hydropower station, and then it took another three years to build the power station.

This should be the first hydropower station in China's history.The efficiency of power generation is no worse than that of the thermal power stations built by foreigners in Shanghai.

It is more than enough to satisfy a mere soap hill town.Even the county town of Goose City has electricity now.

Lu Ding lost the bet between Lu Heng and Lu Ding.When the power project in Zaoshan Town was completed, Lu Ding's wife once brought three children over to relax. After returning, she wrote a letter across the ocean to tell Lu Ding, and Lu Ding wrote back specifically to admit defeat.

That's right, Lu Ding already has three children.

Don't let your imagination run wild—since Xin Chou, Lu Ding has come back every year during the Chinese New Year—the two later children were conceived by her wife after returning home twice for the Chinese New Year.

A boy, a girl.

Boys are called Lu Ming, with small characters Yoyo; girls are called Lu Mei, small characters Xiaomei and Xiaoman.

You read that right, so is the girl Lu Xiaoman.

After giving birth to Lu Mei, Lu Ding didn't plan to have any more children.Three children, two boys and one girl, he said a lifetime is enough.

Then he begged for nothing to make the two little children recognize their godparents.

Lu Heng himself had no children, so he had three sons and daughters.

Lu Yi is seven years old. After the child was three years old, he came to Zaoshan Town to live with Lu Heng for three years. Last year, when he was six years old, he was taken back to Shanghai by his mother to prepare for formal schooling.

This kid is a genius.

Especially in terms of physics, quite inspirational.

Zhu Dachui just said that this kid will be great in the future.

Clever, and quiet - he was a bear for a while when he was two or three years old, and then he became quiet after living in Zaoshan Town for three years.I like reading, and I like to ask Lu Heng messy questions.

During that time, I often went to Zhu Dachui's blacksmith's laboratory and learned a lot from Zhu Dachui.

Lu Ding's three children have an unusual status in Lu Heng's family.Lu Heng was so determined to take care of them, but as soon as he turned around, Gong Lan, Huang Chun'er, and Jiu'er were tightly guarded.

Lu Yi, Lu Heng is not worried, this kid is doing well in every way.It's not a big problem for Lu Ming to escape.As for Lu Mei, she gradually became like a little princess, especially arrogant and self-willed, Lu Heng felt that she had to take care of her severely at some point.It can't be crooked.

Her parents dote on her and let her do everything.Now that I'm young, it's nothing.But if this habit continues to adulthood, it will undoubtedly be a problem.

As a godfather, Lu Heng must be able to manage it.

After lunch, Lu Heng walked out of Medicine Valley, walked through the tunnel, and went down the mountain to Zaoshan Town.Guessing that Yuzhen's train is about to arrive.

He is still the same as always, no matter what he wears.

Wearing a green cloth gown, wearing cloth shoes, with a cropped cut, he looks leisurely with his hands behind his back.Aside from his tall, straight and slender figure, if he is stooped, he is a street slut.

Walking through the smooth streets, many people passed by to say hello.

Call out: "Mr. Lu."

Lu Heng smiled and nodded in response.

In the past few years, life in Zaoshan Town has been really good.The chaotic and exorbitant taxes will never fall on the people of Zaoshan Town.

The population growth of Zaoshan Town is not large - many people are consciously blocking the news of Zaoshan Town.Lu Heng didn't care much, as there were not many people, it was good to be quiet.

Only natural growth, based on the population base of Zaoshan Town, has added hundreds of people in these years.

Mostly newborns.

The streets of the town are still a little long, one hundred and eighty steps, and not far away is the train station.A very small train station.

The two railways invested by Lu Heng both end in Goose City.Zaoshan Town is just a small station, but in fact, most of it is used by Lu Heng's family - ordinary people in the town, except for going to Goose City when they need it, mostly don't take the train to travel.

There are only two people in the small station, one of whom is the stationmaster.They were all living in a difficult town, so Lu Heng entrusted them with the job of looking after Xiaozhan so that they could have a salary to make ends meet.

Seeing Lu Heng coming, the station master—Old Man Niu was very happy, and hurriedly moved out the stool: "Mr. Lu is here, sit down!"

Lu Heng smiled and said, "You sit, when will the next train arrive?"

The old man Niu said: "It is said that it will be the next moment. As long as it is not late, it will be here in half a quarter of an hour."

Delay is not a big delay - these days, there are not many trains, and there are not many trains, so there are very few conflicts in time, and generally they can arrive on time.

After chatting with Old Man Niu and another staff member for about ten minutes, I heard the sound of a train.Immediately afterwards, there was a whimpering roar.

Amidst the roar of steel, the train gradually slowed down and stopped in front of the small station, puffing out huge thick smoke.

This train has five sections--it's a big one.Just for this train, Lu Heng spent several 10 taels of silver.After that, tens of thousands of taels of silver will be spent on maintenance and expenses every year.

Walking onto the lonely platform, the train door opened bang-bang, and there was a tall girl standing in the door pretty.

If it's not Yuzhen, who is it?

The girl was wearing a plain white dress and a lady's hat on her head, looking very foreign.

Her appearance is almost [-]% similar to Yuhong's, and her face is more delicate in the subtleties. When Lu Heng first saw her, he knew that she must be a troublesome woman in the future-now there are signs of it.

Last year, there were a few young men begging Bai Lai to come to Zaoshan Town, no matter how cold-eyed she was, she was willing to do so.

But this time, there seemed to be no young men following her—there was a young woman beside her!

She is also a stunning woman - standing with her, except that she is a few centimeters shorter, she has the same appearance and figure as Yuzhen, and each is good at winning.

This girl is dressed in a more foreign style than Yuzhen. Yuzhen's skirt is plain white, which is more inclined to Chinese style, while this girl is a completely foreign dress, with flowers hanging on the lady's hat, and her feet are wearing Or women's shoes.

Lu Heng showed a smile: "I'm back."

Yuzhen cheered and rushed over to Lu Heng.Lu Heng was about to reject her with his hands, but saw the young woman next to her grab her.

Yuzhen curled her lips and said, "Master Lu, let me introduce you."

She pulled the girl closer and said, "This is my good friend, Bai Xiuzhu."

After hearing this, Lu Heng didn't realize it all at once. He was waiting to say hello before he realized it. He paused: "Bai Xiuzhu?"

The girl then stretched out her hand generously: "Jinling Bai Family, Bai Xiuzhu."
