Chapter 645: Old Goods Scramble
Although the ministers said words of congratulations, there was no trace of joy on their faces.
On the contrary, they were crying and mourning, as if a catastrophe was coming!
"Feiyu, tell me quickly, what is the principle of this thousand-mile transmission?"
After learning about the power of the telegraph, Ying Zheng no longer dared to underestimate them, let alone treat them as broken copper and iron.
Looking at the telegraph again, it's like looking at a pile of gold and silver treasures!
It's such a small thing, and one person can carry it.
If you are on the battlefield, you can pass the news on the battlefield anytime and anywhere.
And even if he is sitting in Xianyang, he can command thousands of troops!
"This telegraph was made by Huang Yuan and led the craftsmen, and he knows the principle best, so let him introduce it!"
Ying Feiyu stretched her waist and kept yawning, as if she was going to squint, and directly pushed this kind of verbosity out.
"Yes!"
Huang Yuan took the errand with great interest and began to talk endlessly.
Ying Zheng and the ministers listened carefully.
Although some of the technical terms are confused in their heads, they can probably understand some of them!
"Good guy, this seemingly simple little box has so many doorways!"
After listening to Huang Yuan's explanation, everyone's jaws dropped in shock.
"Alas! Or the power of technology! In less than an hour, we have earned so much money! ”
"Who's to say it isn't! If we had known this, we wouldn't have been fooled! ”
"What's the use of talking about that now? It's all about spending money to buy lessons! In the future, if you bet with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince again, you will be a dog ......! ”
The ministers' faces were full of remorse.
"Haha! I really didn't expect that such a small machine could completely change Daqin's communication! ”
Ying Zheng laughed heartily again.
Before this, Daqin's communication was basically writing letters.
When a soldier is sent to the army, a large family will find a subordinate to deliver the letter.
Even on the battlefield, you can only rely on fast horses to deliver messages!
From now on, those will be a thing of the past, and it's no wonder that Ying Zheng can not be happy!
"Immediately mass produce, as much as I want!"
Ying Zheng waved his hand and immediately gave the order.
The telegraph was made by the craftsmen under Ying Feiyu, and if Ying Zheng wanted it, the kid would never give it.
According to him, technology is priceless.
He can't buy the technology, but the court can still afford the telegraph machine produced!
After all, it's just two small boxes, no matter how expensive they are, they can't afford a steamer!
"Your Majesty, this telegraph can transmit news in an instant, and if it can be placed in the army, it will definitely be able to fully display its role!"
Hearing that it was going to be manufactured in large quantities, Wang Ben was the first to apply.
Such a good thing, if it is put in the hands of the border soldiers, as long as there is any change, they can send troops to support as soon as possible to protect the people of Daqin from being bullied.
Even if there is no war on the border, it can be used to deploy troops.
In short, it has a lot of effects!
"Haha! Permit! ”
The reason why Yingzheng asked for mass production was for this.
It was by virtue of its excellent military strength that Great Qin conquered the current land.
With the latest means of communication, it is definitely necessary to equip the army first!
"Your Majesty, the household department also applies to equip the telegraph!"
There are good things, but they will definitely not be able to fall behind the monkey spirit Zhang Han.
How could he not grab such a good thing as a telegraph?
"Hey! I said Lao Zhang, why are you in a hurry as a money-collecting household? ”
As soon as he heard that Zhang Han was going to rob him, Wang Ben stopped doing it at that time.
"Your Majesty, there are many projects in the Ministry of Industry, and you also need a telegraph to report the progress of the project!"
"There are also ministers' ministries, who are promoted and transferred, and they all need telegraphs!"
"Don't we need the Criminal Department? Once a felony is found and a message is passed back, the Criminal Department can immediately send someone to arrest him, and he will not miss the opportunity to let the felons ...... go! ”
With Wang Ben and Zhang Han taking the lead, Feng Quji, Meng Yi, and Kang Anping also followed closely and competed.
"If that's the case, my Ministry of Rites will have to ask for it......!"
Everyone wanted something new like the telegraph, so Chun Yuyue also joined in.
But as soon as he spoke, he was met with sharp eyes from several other people.
"Why do you need a telegraph?"
"That's it! Whether it is preparing for ceremonies, holding sacrifices, running schools, or taking imperial examinations, they are all carried out in the city, and what can be solved by a fast horse, what are you robbing us of? ”
The old ones have rolled their eyes.
"I ......"
When they said this, Chun Yuyue was speechless.
They really got it right.
Most of the work of the Ministry of Rites is carried out in Xianyang, and other counties are basically not involved.
"Feng Zen ......! Right! My Ministry of Rites needs a telegraph to prepare, and I can't use it when I wait for the next time Mount Tai seals the Zen? ”
The telegraph was a novelty, and he couldn't help but fight for it.
So my brain raced quickly, and I finally found something that needed to be carried out in other counties!
That is Mount Tai Feng Zen!
The so-called Feng Zen is a ritual for the emperor to stand on the highest peak and sacrifice to the heavens and the earth.
Tell the heavens about the emperor's exploits, and tell the earth that he is a qualified emperor and that everything he does is in accordance with the way of heaven!
Now, thirteen years have passed since the last time the Zen was sealed, and Daqin has also undergone earth-shaking changes.
After speaking, Chun Yuyue also glanced at a few people defiantly.
He didn't believe it, how many old people still dare to refute this reason?
Could it be that you don't want Your Majesty to go to Zen?
"Forehead ......"
Sure enough, after hearing this, several old fellows closed their mouths one after another like defeated roosters and stopped talking.
And Ying Zheng's eyes lit up, and he seemed to think of something, "Okay, don't make any noise, when the telegraph is successfully developed, I will definitely send two of your six departments over, haha!" ”
Yingzheng was in a good mood today, even if the old goods quarreled in the court again, they didn't open their mouths to reprimand.
"Huang Yuan, after this telegraph is mass-produced, it may be guaranteed to supply six?"
"Your Majesty, rest assured, the reason why the previous research was slow was because there was no experience in this area, and I crossed the river by feeling the stones, and failed many times, so it was successfully developed! And now with experience, remanufacturing is much easier! ”
Huang Yuan smiled and gave his hand to report.
"That's good! Ha ha! ”
Ying Zheng held his big belly and couldn't close his mouth happily, "When the telegraph is produced, I will give you all the ministries and other counties with one, and it will be much more convenient to communicate with each other when the time comes!" ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Everyone hurriedly thanked them.
This is the only thing they can be happy about today.
