Chapter 989: Lay the telephone line to Great Xia

As the telephones were gradually installed in the castle lords' mansions in Izumo, the originally somewhat hazy veil on this new thing was finally lifted.

No limit to distance, hundreds of miles, thousands of miles, you can talk at any time.

You can hear each other's voices clearly.

Even the two city lords can use this thing to chat and chat.

There is no need to send people to each department for anything, just a phone call.

Soon, everything about the phone swept through Izumo like a storm.

Whether it is on the street or in the alley, whether it is a green house or a restaurant, there are people discussing the telephone.

With the advertisement of "homesickness, just make a call!", the limelight was unmatched for a while.

Ren Baqian's reputation also rose, and the name "Tiangong" soon replaced the original "poisoner" and "stinky king"

Ren Baqian is very happy to hear this, and he finally doesn't have to memorize those two names all the time.

Fortunately, the name of the Poison King has been transmitted to his ears from time to time through the Governor's Mansion, and every time he will feel inexplicably sad.

It's like I've become a bedbug crossing the street.

What followed was a large number of private orders.

Especially for families and chambers of commerce, the high cost of installing telephones and monthly rents are not a problem at all, and the benefits of timely communication are numerous.

In just half a month, more than 40 Imperial Communications stores throughout Izumo received orders for more than 7,000 telephone installations, and a total of more than 40,000 telephones were required.

On average, an order requires the installation of six telephones, and many chambers and families have installed one in each of the several cities in the range of activities.

This is ten times the number of telephones installed in the Daiyao Imperial Court and Izumo Castle.

It can be seen that the wealth of the Izumo people, as well as the popularity of the Izumo people for telephones.

With the 8,000 people in his hands now, more than 300 telephones can be installed in a day, and these more than 40,000 telephones will be installed for more than three months.

Coupled with the telephone installation in the southern cities of Dayao and the land of Tianjing, they are all full for at least half a year.

Combined with the public telephones that are expected to be spread throughout the cities of Dayao, it is expected that it will take at least a year.

And a month later, Ren Baqian received a special request for phone installation.

"Your Highness, you don't have to refuse such a small request, don't you? Don't forget that we're still ...... Partner!" Qinglian looked at Ren Baqian with a smile.

Well, the word partner is still from the book she got from Ren Baqian.

"You asked me to lay the telephone line to Daxia?" Ren Baqian said with a smile: "Do you know how much it costs to lay these cables alone?"

Qinglian looked at Ren Baqian with a smile, and slowly spoke: "Your Highness is calling that a telephone cable." His Royal Highness uses 20 pairs of telephone cables, 15.1 kilograms of consumables per kilometer, of which the copper content is 51%, which means that 7.7 kilograms of copper and 7.4 kilograms of insulation are needed for one kilometer.

A total of 2,400 kilometers from Tiesuoguan to Xiaoyujing, and we need Xiaoyujing to Longchuan, Jiangqiao, Qibei, Duyao, Shendong, Shenglong, Shengqing, Wuluguan, eight lines, a total of 6,300 kilometers.

Together with the previous 2,400 kilometers, there are a total of 8,700 kilometers.

And the weight of a copper coin is four to five grams, so we count it as five grams. One tael of silver is 1,200 copper, which is equivalent to six kilograms. The price of rubber, I also slightly estimated, a kilogram does not exceed 100 copper, which is half the price of copper.

From this, it is concluded that not counting manpower, the cost of one kilometer is 2180 copper.

According to two taels of silver, the total is only seventeen thousand four hundred taels of silver.

We can give two hundred thousand taels of silver.

Of course, I also know that this silver is nothing in the eyes of His Highness, but the area of Great Xia is vast, and the technology of this telephone is only available to His Highness, and the entire Great Xia will rely on His Highness in this regard in the future.

These eight routes are just the beginning, or rather, His Highness did it easily.

And His Highness's handy action has been of great use to us! We are all grateful to Your Highness!"

Ren Baqian looked at Qinglian's face full of confidence, and felt more and more pity, it was too wasteful for such a talent to be used to fight and kill.

Scientific research should be her destination.

The sea of stars should be her goal.

"You should continue your studies at the university!"

"Those sword masters, here with His Highness, are you doing well?" Qinglian said with a smile. "When this place is over, I can't say that I will be like them, come to His Highness!"

"I really want to accept your favor in this matter! I can't forget it, you don't need to remind me!" Ren Baqian knocked on the case.

"It's not that I can't promise you. Ren Baqian thought about whether he needed to take this opportunity to ask them to give them a tax exemption agreement for opening a communication company in Great Xia in the future.

Merchants in this world are taxed, and so are communication companies.

Especially after more than ten or twenty years, after everything is stable in Great Xia, with the population base of Great Xia, it may not be impossible to produce a few talented people to imitate and study telephones and exchanges.

Not before, but no one thought of it.

Ten or twenty years is enough for them to study the principle based on real objects.

At that time, this agreement will give the royal family communication a huge advantage in the market.

But if you think about it, it's not too interesting for me and these people to do these careful thoughts.

This is not the Earth, not the world where everything is tied to the economy.

Aliens beyond the Exiled Lands and exploring this world are your goals.

Qinglian saw that Ren Baqian was thinking there, and after waiting for a while, she took the initiative to speak: "What else does Your Highness want?"

"Forget it, it's nothing. It's just that I'm afraid it won't work in a short period of time, and the manpower is Why is it going to be a year later!" Ren Baqian calculated the time in his heart.

"Although I don't know what His Highness is thinking, but I think His Highness has given up a request that is beneficial to His Highness, Qinglian would like to thank His Highness here!" Qinglian thought exquisitely, looking at Ren Baqian's expression, she probably guessed something, but she didn't know the specifics.

"You!" Ren Baqian pointed at her: "It's good to know in your heart, don't sell if you get cheap!"

Qinglian chuckled and spoke again: "I don't think it's complicated to lay the line, and we can complete most of it ourselves." His Highness only needs to send a few people to assist, presumably His Highness can still send this person. ”

Ren Baqian once again felt that it was a pity for Qinglian to follow those chaotic armies to fight and kill.

Such a talent, even if he is not sent to the research institute, he is still a cadre in the DPRK and the Central Committee!

Nowadays, there are several students in the school who are most favored by him, and none of them can compare to her in terms of knowledge and this clear mind.

It's a pity!

"That's it, I'll send ten people to assist you!" Ren Baqian nodded.

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Qinglian made a successful trip this time, and did not show any joy.

In fact, she had never been concerned about it.

Therefore, after the negotiation was completed, Qing Lian said: "It was a business before, and now that the business is done, Qing Lian first wants to congratulate His Royal Highness and His Majesty Emperor Dayao on having a unicorn!"

If it is someone else, it is natural to close the distance before talking about business.

In Qinglian's heart, there was no need to do this at all.

"Qinglian has occasionally gotten a few ancient scrolls these days, and this time she brings it as a congratulatory gift for the little princess!"

Ren Baqian subconsciously said, "You dug someone's grave?"

Qinglian covered her mouth and chuckled: "Your Highness's guess is right!"
