Lu Ye set up a tent just like that. He did not even give Bai Xinshui the chance to say no.

A bed was naturally more comfortable than living in a tent.

Everyone chose to remain silent.

Bai Xinshui gritted her teeth in anger. What could he do to her if she didn’t stay in the tent?

Lu Ye led them upstairs. Everyone was in a separate cubicle.

Qu Yuanxian was not surprised by the layout of the house. After all, when he left Carefree City, they had already built many cement houses.

There were also many other things, such as toilets and sofas. He had seen them before.

However, the others did not think so.

Zeng Sanshui entered the cubicle and was surprised to see the spring bed. He sat down and almost sank into it, scaring him. He exclaimed, “Why is this bed so soft? Aren’t you soldiers afraid of breaking your backs!”

Lu Ye explained, “This is specially for guests. We don’t sleep in beds like this.”

Zeng Sanshui nodded in satisfaction with an expression that said, “You know what’s good for you.”

He looked around again and felt around. He noticed something strange on the desk and asked, “What is this?”

Lu Ye explained patiently, “This is a table lamp. Like the chandelier and headlamp, it’s a kind of electric lamp.”

Only then did Zeng Sanshui notice that the house was as bright as day thanks to the light above his head.

He didn’t want others to think that he was a country bumpkin, but this thing was too bright. His eyes were dazzled.

“What’s the difference between a lamp and a chandelier? It’s not even lit up.”

Lu Ye liked to watch these people appear so ignorant.

He raised his chin slightly and pressed the switch proudly. The table lamp lit up with a click. The light was in a warm yellow mode, clearly different from the bright white light above his head.

It was more like a yellow gem.

To be able to see the bright table lamp at such a close distance, Zeng Sanshui carefully poked his head down and looked into the lamp cover. “How does this light up?”

Lu Ye pressed the switch again and the lamp suddenly went out.

This was simply too magical. Zeng Sanshui couldn’t help but ask, “Can you give me one?”

This time, Lu Ye actually agreed readily. “Sure.”

Zeng Sanshui felt like he was dreaming. “Really for me?” The smile on his face was about to fly out.

Lu Ye nodded again. “Of course. I’ve always kept my word.”

Lu Ye was only in his twenties, but Zeng Sanshui could already be his uncle. Under the temptation of a lamp, his arrogant words were replaced by a smile. “Then 1 can install it now.”

However, Lu Ye said, “Even if I’ve given you the table lamp, but it doesn’t mean that you can use it when you get home.”

Zeng Sanshui was confused. “Can’t you just press it like this?”

Lu Ye pointed at the table lamp. “As I said just now, the table lamp and chandelier are all a type of electric lamp. Electric lamps have to be supplied with electricity before they can be used.”

Zeng Sanshui was even more confused. “Are you talking about the electricity in the sky?”

Lu Ye thought for a moment. “If the electricity in the sky can be charged into the table lamp, it might work. However, our electricity is produced by ourselves. You can take the table lamp back. However, when the electricity stored inside is depleted, it won’t be usable anymore.”

Zeng Sanshui did not understand and was exasperated. “You’re playing with me! If you don’t want to give it to me, why do you have to beat around the bush!”

It was difficult for Lu Ye to explain to him. After all, Carefree City and the current Ling Kingdom were like two different worlds.

He simply said, “General Zeng, pack it up first. You’ll slowly understand when you reach Carefree City. I’m not scaring you..”
