Chapter 260 Addicted to Operating an Excavator!
With so many excavators, bulldozers, and forklifts, Xiao Ran definitely couldn't get there.

The boss gave Xiao Ran a discount for buying so much and even arranged for someone to deliver it to the warehouse.

This time, Princess Xiao Ruoying of Yuzhang didn't need to take a taxi, because Li Ke and Li Tai went along with the delivery driver.

All of them were neatly arranged outside the warehouse.

Li Ke and Li Tai helped take the mirror down and put it in the warehouse.

Li Lizhi took the little princess back to the Tang Dynasty first and had the screen moved to a spacious place.

With everything ready, the little princess led Li Lizhi back to the warehouse.

"Little Nangjun~ It's ready~" the little princess called out.

"Okay!" Xiao Ran drove the flatbed trailer to Datang.

"Wow, this is quite big." Li Shimin leaned closer to take a look.

The little princess led the others back to the Tang Dynasty.

“Grandpa, this is the medium size. There are also larger ones. The one that’s too big hasn’t been bought yet,” Princess Yuzhang said.

"Is this difficult to learn? It looks like it won't be easy." Li Shimin also wanted to give it a try.

Li Shimin was quite curious about modern things and wanted to try them out.

"Grandpa, it's very simple, not difficult at all. Qingque and I can do it now," Li Ke said excitedly.

Although people of this era mature early, Li Ke and Li Tai were still teenagers and sometimes acted like children.

"Opening it isn't difficult, but I don't know how it will be when actually using it. When I learned it before, I just randomly dug a couple of times."

"Wait a moment, I'll try it. Anan, go and get someone to learn!" Li Shimin shouted.

"It's your Majesty!"

Li Shimin had already decided that the second-generation elites like Cheng Chumo, Qin Huaiyu, and Fang Yi'ai would be the ones to learn how to operate excavators.

"How come there are such small ones? Is this for Sizi Shiqi Erniang to play with?" Li Shimin smiled when he saw the mini excavator.

Like minors, at least compared to others, that's the feeling.

“No, even Grandpa can’t open this kind of ox; it’s for adults,” Li Lizhi explained.

After Xiao Ran had delivered most of the goods, Li Ke and Li Tai had already started teaching Li Shimin how to operate an excavator.

Soon, Li Shimin drove the excavator in circles, and the mechanical arm swung back and forth.

This is the place you can't dig, otherwise Li Shimin would definitely come and use his shovel.

Not long after, a group of rich kids arrived, and they were very excited to see the excavator.

Fearing that the palace floor would be damaged, Li Shimin did not allow the ceremony to be held in the palace.

Instead, he drove out of the palace and headed to the place where the Daming Palace was to be built.

You can dig here however you like, it's fine.

Xiao Ran, Li Lizhi, and Princess Yuzhang all drove a flatbed trailer. It was not surprising that Li Shimin also drove one. Xiao Ran did not expect that Zhang Anan had also learned to drive one.

The second-generation rich kids were incredibly excited.

Li Ke and Li Tai drove the excavator off the flatbed truck, and Li Shimin couldn't wait to go up and dig a couple of shovelfuls.

“Little Nangjun~ I want to play duck too~” The little princess tugged at Xiao Ran.

“Okay, let’s play too!” Xiao Ran picked up the little princess and got onto the mini excavator.

The little princess doesn't like to hit anything; she only likes the smallest ones.

As for teaching others, Xiao Ran doesn't need to worry about it; Li Ke and Li Tai are enough.

The reason I brought these two brothers along was for this.

These second-generation individuals are not slow learners; they learn very quickly.

"Wow~ Little Nang is so amazing~" The little princess was overjoyed when she saw the robotic arm dig up a shovelful of dirt.

"This car is so much fun!"

"Is this more fun or go-karting?"

"This vehicle is so much fun!" Xiao Ran was both amused and exasperated. Why did this little girl like excavators so much?

Li Shimin ignored what others were learning and drove a medium-sized excavator, finding a spot to dig with great enthusiasm.

Xiao Ran quickly took out his phone and snapped a few photos.

I find it hilarious.

Li Lizhi and Princess Yuzhang also wanted to try, but they were rather reserved and embarrassed.

Xiao Ruoying said that girls don't drive this.

Before long, Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Jingde, and others also came to join in the fun.

"What is this?" Yuchi Jingde asked, his face full of questions.

"Never seen him before, looks interesting. Is that His Majesty up there?" Qin Qiong saw Li Shimin.

"It really is true," Cheng Yaojin quickened his pace, wanting to get closer and take a look.

It wasn't just Li Shimin who was digging enthusiastically; Xiao Ran and the little princess were also digging.

As for why they dug like that, no one else knew. Xiao Ran and Li Shimin were just digging casually to have some fun.

I must say, it's really stress-relieving and exhilarating.

Although Xiao Ran had seen excavators since he was very young, he had never driven one before. Today was his first time.

I must say, it's quite fun.

The little princess didn't keep pestering Xiao Ran, letting the little princesses of Chengyang and Gaoyang also experience it.

Actually, it was Xiao Ran who was in charge; the little princess was on the excavator.

There was no actual action taken; it was just a matter of participating.

When Li Shimin saw the others arrive, he also got off the excavator.

"Greetings, Your Majesty, Your Highness the Empress," Cheng Yaojin and the others hurriedly bowed.

"No need for formalities," Li Shimin waved his hand.

The other two generations gradually adapted as well.

"Your Majesty, what is this? How can it be so peculiar?" Qin Qiong pointed at the excavator.

I used to think sedans were strange, but this one looks much more abstract than a sedan.

"This is an excavator. It's great for digging holes. It makes large-scale construction much easier!" Li Shimin pointed to the hole he had dug earlier.

The hole I dug myself would take a long time to dig if someone else were to do it.

You only know how terrifyingly efficient an excavator is compared to a human after experiencing it firsthand.

"Won't this come in handy when the university is built? A lot of places will be demolished." Cheng Yaojin was slightly excited, as he would also have the chance to experience it for himself.

"Yes, once Qingque Sanlang teaches Huaiyu and the others, we can leave the university to them. With this, it should be quick."

"It looks fast." Li Jing stared at the excavator's tracks. "Your Majesty, this should be useful on the battlefield too!"

“Xiao Ran said before that this kind of track can drive even where there is no road, but it’s a bit slow.” Li Shimin was also thinking about whether this thing could be used on the battlefield.

If it is of great use on the battlefield, Li Shimin would not mind equipping the Tang army with excavators.

This thing can be bought with money, and this amount of money is nothing compared to the outcome of a war.

"This seems interesting. If it's sturdy, it must be very powerful. It could easily dig such a big hole and cut through the battlefield, disrupting the enemy's formation."

Li Shiji, who was standing next to him, also said with a smile.

Xiao Ran was startled. As expected of a military general, he could think of such things just by seeing an excavator.

Xiao Ran was also wondering if he could get a tank for Li Shimin.

Even if we can't make a real one, having someone make a fake one is enough.

For many skilled craftspeople, welding a turtle shell shouldn't be difficult.

In any case, Li Shimin wanted to disrupt the enemy's formation.
