Chapter 108 Li Nian's plan to take a photo with Emperor Qin Shi Huang

Although the other alchemists did not see how the iron wire burned up close, they saw the bright light emitted by the burning iron wire.

In that so-called oxygen, the iron really burned!

"It would be great if there was a beaker, so that everyone could see the phenomenon clearly. Unfortunately, although Daqin already has glass, the production is small and the transparency is not enough. I have to improve it."

"Now that we have these alchemists, I will give them the method of making glass and ask them to study how to make glass. Without glass, some things are really difficult to do."

Li Nian was thinking in his mind. At this time, the burning of the iron wire had stopped, and the alchemist took the remaining iron wire out of the pottery jar.

Looking at the broken piece of wire, all the alchemists were silent.

At this moment, no alchemist dared to underestimate Li Nian anymore. He had used these facts to prove what he said and also overturned their previous cognition.

Most of the alchemists sighed secretly and looked lost.

Because the more correct this person is, the more it proves that there are no immortals or immortal medicines in the world.

They have been refining elixirs for so long and seeking immortality for so long, doesn't that mean they were wrong from the beginning?

An alchemist staggered and cried out sadly: "Hahaha, there are no immortals in the world, how ridiculous we are!"

"I laugh at the stupidity of the world, unwilling to give up the little worldly desires, thinking that I am superior to others, but I don't know that I am even more ridiculous."

As soon as the alchemist moved, the guards protecting Li Nian were about to take action, fearing that this man would go crazy and rush towards Li Nian, but Li Nian waved his hands to stop them.

After hearing what this alchemist said, the other alchemists remained silent.

Even when the First Emperor tortured them and forced them to eat chicken and rat stew, they were terrified but not as they are now.

Because at that time they could still think that it was a calamity sent by God to test them. Even if there were some hardships, they would always get through it and only had to endure temporary humiliation and torture.

But now it’s different. There are no immortals in the world. Wouldn’t everything they did and thought before be in vain?

They are a bunch of real fools!

No wonder the King of Qin wanted to kill them, because there are no immortals or immortal medicines in the world, and the pills they made must have problems, and they were endangering his life.

But Xu Fu, Lu Sheng and Hou Sheng were still stubborn and insisted on coming up with an excuse of "some are blessed with good fortune or bad luck". The King of Qin, who was already angry, how could he not be angry when he heard that they dared to deceive him?
After the Taoist priest finished speaking, he knelt on the ground with a plop and bowed to Li Nian, saying, "Sir, you saved our lives first, and then helped us get rid of our misunderstanding. From now on, I will obey your orders to repay your kindness."

After hearing this, some alchemists couldn't help but think in their hearts: This guy couldn't have been pretending to be like that just now, so the words that follow are what he really wants to say, right?

Many alchemists regretted in their hearts that there must be a big difference between being the first to declare allegiance and declaring allegiance later, but it is too late now.

The other Taoist priests knelt down and said to Li Nian, "We are willing to obey your orders, sir."

Seeing this group of alchemists who wanted to repay his kindness, Li Nian was not very happy. He said solemnly: "Please stand up, but you must remember that it was the king who pardoned your sins. You should repay the king, not me!"

The alchemists were shocked and said in unison: "Young Master, you are right. We should repay the king's kindness!"

In the evening, in Zhangtai Palace, Ying Zheng was exercising in the hall.

According to the "Precautions for Healthy Living" that Li Nian gave him, sitting for a long time is bad for the body. You must get up and stretch your body after sitting for a while, otherwise you may develop some diseases, such as stones, lumbar pain, etc.

Therefore, when he handles government affairs now, he will handle them for a while and then get up and move around.

At this moment, a guard came in and reported: "Your Majesty, Master Li Nian wants to see you for something!"

Ying Zheng turned around to look at the guards and whispered to himself, "This kid would take the initiative to ask to see me? It's really rare!"

Li Nian usually sent bamboo slips to him for approval and would not take the initiative to ask for a meeting.

"This kid's request for an audience definitely requires me to confirm it in person."

Ying Zheng said to the guard, "If there is something, let him come over."

Soon, Li Nian arrived at Zhangtai Palace.

When he entered the hall and took a look, Li Nian was surprised to find that Meng Yi was not there.

This shouldn't be the case. Meng Yi was already trusted by the First Emperor and was always by his side. And because of his presence, the trust in him was even greater. If the First Emperor met him, it would be almost impossible for him not to let Meng Yi accompany him.

Unless Meng Yi was sent by the First Emperor to carry out some confidential matter, he is not in Xianyang now.

But what could have made the First Emperor send Meng Yi out?

While Li Nian was pondering, Ying Zheng saw through his thoughts and said, "No need to guess. Meng Yi was sent out by me to capture the Xiang family with Meng Tian." To capture Xiang Yu's uncle and nephew?
That was indeed very confidential. Meng Yi knew about Xiang Yu's affairs and was the best person to accomplish this task.

"Meng Tian also went with Meng Yi, and the Meng brothers joined the battle together."

'I remember that in that anime, Xiang Yu once fought against Meng Tian. It also happened in the history of this world. But this time, Overlord is probably going to be in danger! '

Ying Zheng looked at Li Nian and asked directly, "Why do you want to see me?"

Li Nian said: "My Lord, I want to use my cell phone on the day when you are crowned emperor. Cell phones can take photos..."

Thinking that the First Emperor might not understand the meaning of "taking photos", Li Nian added: "You can record the scene when the King proclaims himself Emperor, just like the future cities and nuclear attacks that the King has seen on his phone."

After hearing this, the First Emperor immediately understood. He asked, "So mobile phones can also be used in this way? Do you want to record it with your mobile phone and have someone draw it later?"

It was impossible to give the phone to other people, and it would not be shown to too many people. Ying Zheng thought about it and realized that he had figured out Li Nian's purpose:
By recording the scene when he proclaimed himself emperor with a mobile phone and then having someone draw the scene recorded with the mobile phone, the scene of him proclaiming himself emperor can be passed down and even passed on to future generations.

This thought moved Ying Zheng, as it would allow future generations to see his heroic appearance when he was emperor!
Li Nian said: "Your Majesty is wise, this is exactly what I want!"

After thinking for a while, Ying Zheng said, "Bring me the phone."

Not long after, mobile phones, power banks and data cables were brought over on a tray.

Ying Zheng said: "Just a few days ago, the four light spots on the power bank were all lit up."

Li Nian connected the phone to the power bank and replied, "My lord, all four light spots are on, which means the power bank is fully charged. Once fully charged, it does not need to be placed under the sun anymore."

Ying Zheng nodded.

After turning on the phone, Li Nian said to Ying Zheng: "Please choose someone, and let me show you the camera function of the phone."

It is impossible to let the First Emperor take a photo right away. How would the First Emperor know whether this would be harmful to him?
Seeing that the mobile phone was recording himself on the screen, he might think that his soul was captured in it and was about to curse him.

Therefore, Li Nian suggested that the First Emperor choose one person to verify it first.

This is also the reason why Li Nian came to meet the First Emperor today and proposed his idea - verification takes time.

If the proposal was made on the day when Qin Shihuang proclaimed himself emperor, he would not agree even if he wanted to.

Li Nian's plan to take a photo with Emperor Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Gaozu of Han Dynasty had to go down the drain.

Ying Zheng also understood Li Nian's intention, but he did not choose one person. Instead, he picked a eunuch, a palace maid, and a guard for Li Nian.

Li Nian first took a few photos of the three of them together, and then took a few photos of each of them.

After taking the photos, he opened the album and asked a eunuch to teach him how to view the photos.

This job was originally done by Meng Yi, but now that Meng Yi was not there, the First Emperor appointed a eunuch.

After teaching, he handed the phone to the eunuch, asked the eunuch to practice it several times, and then asked the eunuch to take the phone to show the First Emperor.

Just like the previous times when he looked at the phone, he did not get close to the First Emperor, but showed it to the First Emperor from a distance.

Seeing the photos of guards, palace maids and eunuchs, the First Emperor nodded, as if he had captured the real person in them. If taking photos was indeed harmless, it would surely pass on his heroic image to future generations.

Ying Zheng sighed, "This mobile phone is indeed amazing, but it's a pity that my Qin can't make it."

Li Nian said: "The later generations I came from were not able to create it in a short time. It was also due to the accumulation of the predecessors that the later generations succeeded. The Great Qin cannot create it now, but it will be able to do it in the future!"

Ying Zheng said: "You know how to comfort me."

The phone was returned to Li Nian's hand. He exited the album, turned off the phone again, and put it back on the tray. Li Nian said again: "I have nothing to do. Please take your leave!"

Ying Zheng waved his hand and let Li Nian go.

As the day of his enthronement approached, he became even busier.

The Zhiyutai has begun to operate, and news such as the Xianyang examination and "light taxes and corvée labor" are being conveyed to the world. The law of making Qin soldiers officials has also been determined, but how to grant official positions to these Qin soldiers based on their military merits and where to appoint them still needs to be carefully considered and negotiated.

There are also adjustments to Qin's laws, changes to the current official system, and plans for universal celebration...

Although in many things he only needed to grasp the main point and didn't have to worry about the details, there were still a lot of things to do, and it was difficult for ordinary princes and princesses to meet him.

After finishing another government matter, Ying Zheng thought to himself: "Why do I feel that I am busier after unifying the country than before? Was the historical figure that Li Nian mentioned so busy?"
