Chapter 548 Installing Equipment
After the women finished soaking in the hot spring, Xia Tian then brought them out of the fortress.
Feng Xian'er immediately said goodbye to Liu Ying and the others, but she didn't say a word to Xia Tian and left Xia Residence directly, making the women sigh in their hearts.
Xia Tian also didn't intend to dissuade her from leaving, but he also felt very sad about her decision.
Liu Ying then hugged her son's arm and comforted him. "You don't need to be sad; just let her go, for now, Tian. Perhaps she needs to be alone for some time to think things through, and if she does love you, then she will come back to you in the future."
"I know." Xia Tian replied with a faint smile.
Before long, Xia Ling came with several hundred soldiers, and he also brought several new maidservants, because the maidservants at Xia Manor had not moved with them to the capital.
Liu Ying and Chen Xue then brought the maidservants along with them, and the two explained and divided their tasks. After they all understood, they immediately did their respective tasks.
Xia Tian himself entered the fortress again; he then brought his grandfather and the soldiers to the riverside, and he explained to them his plan to build 30 houses on the area.
The soldiers were shocked by Xia Tian's plan, and even though he wanted to build simple houses, he wanted to build too many.
Xia Ling then asked him. "Why do you want to build so many houses, Tian? Isn't it enough if you build one big house?"
"At first, I also only intend to build one house, Grandpa." Xia Tian smiled wryly and explained his women's demands, making Xia Ling frown.
Xia Ling couldn't help but sigh and shake her head; he then patted his grandson on the shoulder. "Sigh, ever since your accident that day, I really can't understand you anymore. Even though you've stopped being a debauchee, you have too many women by your side now, and I think their number will continue to grow in the future. Not to mention, Tian Qilian is carrying your child now, and I'm sure your other women will also want to bear your child in the future, so I think you need more housing and other facilities."
Xia Tian was dumbfounded hearing that; he hadn't even thought that far ahead, but his grandfather had already thought that far ahead. However, he also wanted to have children from all of his women, but he thought it would take a very long time since they were still very weak right now.
Xia Ling laughed at his grandson's expression. "I know that you haven't thought that far ahead; that's why I'm telling you now, and it would be best if you prepared things much earlier. So if they want to conceive your child in the future, then everything is in place."
"So what's your idea, Grandpa?"
"Hmm?" Xia Ling observed the entire riverside area for a while; he then explained to Xia Tian as he continued to point at various areas.
Xia Tian listened to his grandfather's ideas very seriously, as he kept nodding to him, and if he felt that his ideas didn't suit his wishes, then Xia Ling gave him yet another idea.
After a while, Xia Ling asked. "What do you think of all my ideas? If you are satisfied with my ideas, then I will order these soldiers to start construction."
"All right, we can use all your ideas, Grandpa."
"Very well, I will order them to start working on everything right away."
Xia Tian nodded to him and left the fortress, and he immediately took out all the things he bought from the earth.
The women looked at all the equipment in confusion, because they had never seen such equipment in the Seven-Star World. Only Bing Huang and Shen Huang knew the functions of some of the equipment.
Since none of them knew about all the equipment, Xia Tian had to do everything by himself. Although he had never seen all of the latest generation equipment, he was able to install them very easily by following the instructions and Alice's guidance.
Sometime later, Xia Tian finished installing some solar panels on the roof of Xia Residence, and then he started installing power cables and various other electrical requirements before he installed all the lamps.
After Xia Tian finished electrically wiring the entire residence, all those women were stunned to see all the lamps. Although all the solar panels weren't fully charged yet, at least they were enough to turn on all the lamps and illuminate the entire residence, so they no longer needed to use candles and torches for illumination.
Liu Ying asked him. "Tian, what are all those things called? How can they light up by themselves? And where did you get them?"
Xia Tian laughed in satisfaction seeing their reactions like that, and he then explained to them everything from the function of the sonar panels to the lamps. "A while ago, I returned to my and Yinyue's old world, and I bought all of this equipment from there. In this way, we don't have to waste a lot of effort and time, because everything uses energy from the sun's heat."
"Your world before your reincarnation?" Xia Ning was surprised by that.
Xia Tian nodded to her. "That world does have a lot more advanced equipment than this world, but I only bought some truly useful equipment for us to use in this world."
"These equipment are amazing!"
"Since the lights and electricity are done, then I will install the other equipment." Xia Tian said as he took out various sizes of water pipes, he also took out several water pumps and other equipment, such as sprinklers, water heaters, etc.
Since he wanted to install indoor showers in their respective rooms, Xia Tian started to measure the entire residence area, and the women kept following and watching him.
When it was night, Xia Tian had just finished installing all the water pipes, pumps, and water heaters, and he then installed showers in each of their bathrooms. Apart from that, he also installed water sprinklers in the garden, so they no longer had to manually water all the plants.
"Phew!" Xia Tian let out a sigh of relief after everything was done, and he explained all of its functions to them, making their eyes sparkle. "Fortunately, I am a cultivator, or else it will take quite a while to put everything together."
Xia Tian then taught them how to operate all the equipment, and Liu Ying and the others were satisfied with all the equipment that was installed by him. They don't even need to draw water to take a shower; they also don't need to heat the water anymore; all they have to do is turn on the water faucet. "If you guys want to try the shower and hot water, then you can go to your bathroom."
Hearing that, the women immediately returned to their respective rooms, and they immediately tried to use them.
Xia Tian himself decided to return to his room, but his expression became sad at the thought of Feng Xian'er, and he then took out and played his guzheng to get rid of the sadness in his heart.
Alice said to him. [Master, I haven't seen you grieve like this over a woman in a long time, and the last time I saw you sad like this was during the mistress' death. Anyway, if you want to get Feng Xian'er, I will help you.]
'No, you don't have to do that, Alice.' Xia Tian shook his head as he continued playing the guzheng. 'I don't know what Xian'er's decision will be after this, but I don't want to force her to be my woman. As Ying'er said earlier, if she truly loves me, she will return to me later.'
[Heh, you treat that Xian'er differently from other women, Master.]
'She is distinct from other women, Alice.'
[Humph! She should be proud that you would choose her as your woman.]
'Honestly, I feel that my feelings for Xian'er are bizarre. Since I first saw her that day, I've had the same feeling I had when I first met Lifen in the past.'
[Well, that's true. Even the way you treat her is like when you were with the mistress in the past.]
'I don't know why, but there's something about Xian'er that intrigues me so much, and it's also what makes me unable to face her with such a strong attitude.'
*Knock... Knock...*
Suddenly, a knock on the door started Xia Tian, and he used his divine sense to see who came. "Come in, Xing'er."
"Why are you sad, Tian?" Xia Xing asked him as she walked into the room; she then stood behind Xia Tian and hugged him from behind. She decided to meet him after she listened to his music, which sounded very sad. "Are you sad like this because of that Feng Xian'er?"
"Heh, you know me very well, Xing'er." Xia Tian replied with a dry laugh.
Xia Xing sighed in her heart; she lifted Xia Tian to his feet and kissed him on the lips for a moment. After that, she pushed him onto the bed and started to take off her dress, and she explained with a seductive look. "Tian, my master, told me my bloodline has perfectly fused with my body, so I want to become your woman tonight."
