Chapter 224 Daydreaming (Third update, please subscribe)
The next day, in the morning.

Looking at the sun shining on the black car body to produce flickering light, feeling the beautiful arc of the car body, there is even a hint of familiarity in the air.

That's right!

It smells of gasoline!

This is the taste!

Familiar taste, familiar...

Breathing in this very intimate smell, Zhu Xianhai sighed deeply in his heart, we also have cars!

Even if this car looks similar to a Model T car, so what, this is an epoch-making means of transportation.

"Is this a car?"

Suddenly, a voice around him interrupted Zhu Xianhai's thoughts, and he looked back at Elizabeth. She was holding a child in her arms. It was his son, but the son who had just turned one year old was looking at the car curiously with his beautiful big eyes. It's like seeing a toy.

"Yes, ma'am, please!"

Zhu Xianhai opened the car door with a smile, and the majestic Lord of Nanhua turned into a coachman.

However, Elizabeth is not his wife, even if she has given birth to a child for him, and is even pregnant now, she never seems to have any intention of marrying him.

Including Monica, Malena, and Maria, they have all given birth to him successively, but none of them are his wives, but...according to Huaxia, they are concubines.

It was not because they were worried that their European identities would not be accepted, but because Elizabeth had always opposed it. In her words, it was necessary to find a wife for Zhu Xianhai who was suitable for his identity.

Ordinary people can't.

Zhu Xianhai has always given enough respect to Elizabeth. Even in Nanhua, she has also won the respect of many people. His staff all call her "Madame", but this does not change her status as a "concubine".

Of course, the son she gave birth to for Zhu Xianhai was the natural heir.

The housework of the emperor's house is a bit messy!

After Elizabeth got into the car, she was sitting in the back seat holding the child, looking at the car curiously,

"Is this just made in the factory? Have you ever driven a car before?"

"Uh... that's it."

"If there is, there will be, if there is no, there will be no, what is counted!
Elizabeth was a little worried, she specifically reminded.

"My son is in the car!"

"Uh, I know..."

Without paying attention to her, Zhu Xinghai sat in the driver's seat on his own, and then wanted to adjust the seat.

Well, the seat can't be adjusted!

And... what about the rearview mirror?
What about seat belts?

The driving habits cultivated in the driving school are... useless here.

Even... how to start a fire?

Where is the ignition on this car?
At first Elizabeth just looked at him curiously, but after a while, doubts flickered in her beautiful eyes.

Judging by his appearance, he doesn't look like he has ever driven a car.

"Have you really driven this car?"

"I'm not driving this car..."

This is the car of the nineteenth century!

It was completely different from the car he had driven, except for the four wheels, the others... had no similarities at all.

When I bent down, I saw the rocker under the seat. This car needs to be cranked to start the ignition!

Carry the rocker directly to the front of the car, then insert the rocker from the bumper position, and turn it skillfully.

"Tutu... tom tom..."

The engine started, and Zhu Xianhai narrowed his eyes slightly as he watched the starting car.

After the engine started, the smell of gasoline in the air became stronger, and the smell... strong!

He even deliberately took a deep breath of the engine exhaust!
……

That's right, that's the taste!
It's that familiar smell!
This taste is kind!

This smell... This is the real taste of modern civilization.

After getting into the car, Zhu Xianhai did not drive in a hurry, but lightly stepped on the accelerator.

"Buzz...buzz..."

Zhu Xianhai narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was carefully distinguishing the ups and downs of the engine sound, and there was a strange expression of enjoyment on his face.

He really enjoys it, he is feeling the car a little bit, to be precise, feeling the modern industrial civilization that the car symbolizes.

Elizabeth stopped talking and just looked at him quietly. His expression of enjoyment made her feel much lighter.

Zhu Xianhai put down the handbrake.

The moment he held the shift lever in his hand, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, like an old friend reunited after a long absence.

After confirming the structure of the car, the clutch on the left foot, the brake and the accelerator on the right foot are the manual transmission type he is familiar with...

Two forward gears, one reverse gear...

It may seem primitive, but in this day and age, what more could one ask for?

Just have a car!

Step on the clutch, shift gears...

Zhu Xianhai's cerebral cortex seemed to be jumping for joy, that familiar feeling came back!
It seems to be the feeling of driving a manual transmission when I first entered the driving school. This feeling...

The finger holding the gear shifter moved slightly, and Zhu Xianhai smiled proudly at the corner of his mouth.

"Elizabeth, hold the baby well, the speed of the car is very fast."

After a while, its speed will definitely scare you. After shifting gears skillfully, release the clutch and step on the accelerator!

The roaring engine of the car suddenly stopped!
This... flame out!

In an instant, Zhu Xianhai was dumbfounded, how could this happen?
While he was in a daze, Elizabeth's coquettish laughter came from the rear seat. Amidst her laughter, Zhu Xianhai stroked his hair in embarrassment and said.

"A good horse sometimes stumbles, and when it turns off, it just turns off..."

While talking and joking, Zhu Xianhai got out of the car again and turned the handle to restart the car.

After a while, the car jumped out amidst the violent roar of the motor... it should be said to drive out slowly.

……

"Isn't this speed a little too fast?"

"Is it fast? Only 40 kilometers at most!"

"Hey, hey! Be careful, there are carriages on the road, if you don't slow down, I'm going to shout!"

"Madam, when a man is driving, you'd better not talk on the sidelines, it will affect driving safety."

Elizabeth couldn't help rolling her eyes, but she still couldn't help opening the car window, feeling the wind blowing, the wind blowing from the car window messed up her long hair, and the son in her arms felt Facing the strong wind blowing, he laughed.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the car was extremely warm.

Half an hour later, Zhu Xianhai parked the car on the side of the road, looking at the endless wheat fields on both sides of the road, holding the hot front of the car with his hand, Zhu Xianhai looked at the back seat of the car, then at the woman beside him, and saw her The child in his arms suddenly felt a pity in his heart.

"Pity……"

"what?"

"nothing?"

While shaking his head to get rid of that scarlet thought, Zhu Xianhai was a little curious, this car might be his invention!
Maybe it is his invention in the future!
