Chapter 491 A Frenzied Shopping Spree: Is This a New Arrival?
While Lord Wang was paying the bill, Minister Liu was already practicing his photography skills with the shop assistant.
The main challenge in using this smart camera is figuring out how to frame the composition of the image.
Fortunately, this top-of-the-line instant camera comes with a smart capture function that automatically locks in the best composition.
While photographing people, it also automatically captures their most natural and vivid expressions and movements, making it a lazy person's perfect photography tool.
As intelligent as Lord Liu was, after studying the theoretical knowledge once, he was able to start shooting immediately.
Fearing that the complimentary photo paper wouldn't be enough, Lord Wang specially purchased several more sets to take back with him.
Knowing they would need to take some time to take photos later, the two of them, as if on the same wavelength, quickly bought all the remaining lights, fans, and hair dryers sold in the venues.
After learning the basic usage, I returned home with a full load of knowledge.
Especially in the lighting section, with its wide variety of styles, Mr. Wang had a great time picking out lamps, table lamps, floor lamps, hanging lamps, and ceiling lamps. He bought everything he liked.
He had considered everything very thoroughly. Take that lamp, for example. In the simulated pitch-black night environment, it could instantly illuminate a large area simply by turning on the switch.
Under the lamplight, the words on the book were as clear as day.
After experiencing it, the two were immediately sold and decided to buy one for themselves right away.
Of course, such a wonderful thing must be purchased in several more units to present to His Majesty!
Wang Fantong, though not particularly bright, was exceptionally adept at navigating social situations.
Upon seeing these convenient and easy-to-use small appliances, he bought them in bulk, almost like he was going on a shopping spree.
Thinking that when the time comes, besides the emperor, I will also bring some back to my family, relatives, colleagues and friends. Using these as gifts to do favors will definitely be very effective.
Seeing this, Minister Liu couldn't help but get excited and started a shopping spree, almost going crazy with his spending.
However, they both seemed to have forgotten that while they had bought the appliances, the others hadn't yet been provided with power banks.
In the end, everyone will just be able to look at these appliances pitifully, unable to use them at all...
The two, engrossed in their shopping spree, had no time to think about anything else...
After paying, I asked the store clerk to arrange for everything to be delivered to my door. Once the items were registered and packed, they didn't have to worry about it anymore.
As the two of them happened to pass by a [power conversion cabinet], they suddenly remembered that they still needed to quickly rent the most important power bank!
Unfortunately, each member can only rent one power bank, and a deposit must be paid in advance, which will be refunded when the power bank is returned.
The power bank is currently fully charged with 20 kilowatt-hours of electricity. The rental is only complete after the electricity bill is paid.
Compared to the large expense of buying home appliances, this small amount of money was nothing to them. They quickly and successfully rented a power bank each by scanning their faces on the screen of the transfer cabinet.
At this point, a pop-up reminder appears on the screen:
After the message "low battery" is displayed, the only option is to go to the charging station in [Wonderland] to replace the power bank.
If anyone is found to have forcibly occupied a power bank and failed to return it, their credit score will be deducted, and they will be added to a rental blacklist for further action.
As soon as the "Rental Completed" screen lit up, another notification popped up on Lord Wang's screen:
Please locate charging station number 6 and enter station number 5487 to retrieve the [power bank]. Thank you.
Lord Wang hurriedly followed the instructions, fiddling with his fingers on the screen for a long time before finally typing in the locker number he had been trying to remember but had forgotten.
With a "beep," the cabinet door opened automatically and slowly, revealing a square, brick-shaped power bank lying quietly inside.
"Wow! This brick-like thing can let us use all those home appliances... How amazing!"
Lord Wang's eyes widened in astonishment.
"Look, this thing is covered with sockets of different sizes and styles on all sides, and it also comes with a matching charging cable. It looks really complete."
Minister Liu leaned closer to examine it carefully and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
"Yes, yes, so these appliances all need this thing to work!"
This thing called 'electricity' is really powerful..."
Lord Wang sighed as he gently stroked the power bank.
Each appliance comes with its own power cord or charging cable, so you can either plug it in and use it or charge it first before using it.
The two carefully took the slightly heavy power bank out of the cabinet and carried it with them.
Then, he took out the instant camera he had just bought and had been carrying with him but hadn't had a chance to use yet, and started taking pictures on the spot with great enthusiasm.
"Lord Wang, please stand here, let me take a picture of you first~"
Minister Liu decided to give it a try first, so he naturally set his sights on the living model in front of him.
Fortunately, Lord Wang was not one to hold grudges. Upon hearing this, he immediately struck what he thought was an incredibly handsome pose, standing confidently in the crowded venue, letting Minister Liu pose for photos...
Just then, Bai Mengran was strolling leisurely when she happened to come across the nearby area and spotted the chubby Lord Wang, who stood out in the crowd.
He was hugging a pillar, striking an extremely comical pose, and Bai Mengran couldn't help but burst out laughing.
After laughing, Bai Mengran took light steps forward and politely greeted him:
"Hi, Lord Wang, it's been a long time!"
I never expected you to personally grace [Fairyland] with your presence today! Did you have a wonderful time?
When he heard that gentle and graceful voice, Lord Wang was wriggling his clumsy, fat body and smiling broadly and joyfully at the camera in Lord Liu's hand.
When he suddenly saw the stunningly beautiful woman standing not far behind Minister Liu, the silly grin on his face froze instantly, as if a pause button had been pressed, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.
However, this vivid and interesting expression was accidentally captured by the smart camera, and a crisp "click" of the shutter sounded, freezing this moment in time.
"What a coincidence, Miss Bai! We rushed here to show our support as soon as we heard the news that the high-speed rail had finally opened today!"
Lord Wang quickly suppressed his surprise and responded with a smile.
"Lord Wang, you are so thoughtful to have come all the way from the capital. Have you booked a hotel for the night?"
Bai Mengran smiled and nodded slightly to the other adult, then asked with a curious expression.
"Ah, we'd love to stay here a few more days and enjoy ourselves. But alas, we have to rush back tonight, and we still have to attend court as usual tomorrow..."
Lord Wang sighed helplessly.
His words were entirely from the bottom of his heart.
If it weren't for the Emperor's order to return that very night to report, he would have genuinely wanted to stay there comfortably for a few days, indulging in all sorts of delicious food and enjoying himself to the fullest before heading back...
