Chapter 367 Negotiation
Seeing how excited everyone was, Qin An couldn't help but get excited, saying that he invented this too.
Immediately, Qin An asked people to buy a lot of ingredients and then made a rich dinner.
Because there were too many people, Qin An asked the hotel chef to help cook together.
Qin An set up four more tables in the yard before everyone could sit down.
Because of Qin An's relationship, Ying Zheng spoke very cryptically at the dinner and did not reveal any information about Da Qin. Instead, he told everyone to constantly encourage everyone and let everyone have a good future.
Because I was so happy, I really didn’t get drunk that night.
The next day, Ying Zheng and others woke up with headaches.
Qin An himself didn't know that because he had made the telegraph machine and telephone that transcended the times, Daqin was about to enter the information age.
Ying Zheng will also speed up the search for rubber.
Qin An didn't know all this, he just continued to be busy with his own things.
"My head hurts." Ying Zheng covered his forehead and took a breath, "I drank a little too much last night."
The maid serving at the side immediately brought a warm towel: "Your Majesty, please use a towel."
After Ying Zheng took the towel and wiped his face, he felt uncomfortable with the smell of alcohol.
So he said: "I want to take a bath."
"promise."
Then Ying Zheng got up and went to the bathroom. After enjoying the shower, Ying Zheng had no interest in taking a bath in the tub or pool.
Especially the soap and shampoo in the bathroom, which Ying Zheng couldn't put down.
Soap workshops and shampoo workshops are now even more sought after by nobles and wealthy businessmen, and the prices are very high.
Ordinary people use soap when they don't have soap.
Although this soap has no fragrance, it can still be used to remove stains, not only on people but also on clothes.
As soon as this invention appeared, the people gained a lot of trust in the court.
Moreover, soap is not expensive. It costs ten cents a piece. This bar can last at least a month. Ten cents a month is very cheap. If you use it sparingly, it can last half a year.
After washing up, Ying Zheng went downstairs to have breakfast.
At this time, Li Si, Feng Quji and Jiang Lu were already enjoying breakfast.
When the three of them saw Ying Zheng coming down, they immediately stood up to greet him.
"See the village chief."
Ying Zheng nodded, then found a seat in the middle and sat down, and immediately brought Ying Zheng a breakfast.
Breakfast is very simple, soy milk and fried dough sticks.
After Ying Zheng took a look at the big cake and fried dough sticks, he said, "Everyone, sit down. I have something to ask you."
"Thank you, village chief."
Li Si and others thanked him at the same time and sat down at the same time.
After Ying Zheng took a sip of soy milk, he said: "Telephones and telegraphs have been successfully tested.
What are your thoughts on this? "
"Father." Jiang Lu said excitedly: "What we have to do now is to find the rubber and then produce the wires Qin An said, wires that are not afraid of wind and rain.
Then lay the wires all over the world.
At that time, the imperial court would be able to know the situation in various parts of the country in time. For the Qin Dynasty, it would be a hundred benefits and no harm. "
Ying Zheng nodded and said: "What you said makes perfect sense. Whether it is telegraph or telephone lines, we must lay out the lines. Even if we don't do it now, we must do it in the future."
"Your Majesty," Li Si said, "Telephones and telegraphs both have the ability to transmit messages, but the telephone seems to be very good. It can communicate directly with others. This is the power of the gods to transmit messages thousands of miles away."
Feng Quji nodded and said: "Old Li is right, now that there are telephones, the telegraph is actually a bit useless.
It would be better to develop the telephone directly and put the telegraph aside for the time being. "
Ying Zheng nodded and said: "I also think that compared to this phone, the telegraph machine is a bit redundant. Moreover, the requirements for this telegraph machine are particularly high, and such a thick Morse code needs to be memorized.
How many people in today's Great Qin can recite it? "
"The village chief is wise." Li Si and Feng Quji said at the same time.
"Father," Jiang Lu said, "I don't think so."
The general gave different suggestions to the court.
Ying Zheng asked curiously: "Lao San, tell me what you think."
"Father," Jiang Lu said, "Although the telephone makes it easier for us to communicate thousands of miles away, why did Qin An invent both of them?
This shows that both telegraph and telephone have their advantages and disadvantages.
At present, we only know the advantages, but not the disadvantages. Therefore, I suggest asking people from the Mohist and Gongshu families.
Of course, it is best to ask Qin An. He invented these two things, so it is best to ask him. "
Ying Zheng nodded slightly and said: "What Lao San said makes sense. At present, we only know that both of them can communicate and can instantly know news thousands of miles away.
Nothing else is really known.
Especially the telegraph machine, I always feel that it is not that simple, otherwise, why would Qin An invent it.
And based on this attitude, it is possible that he wants to install this computer in eight villages in ten miles and eight villages, just to let us know the situation in eight villages in ten miles and eight villages. "
"Village Chief, if this is true, then we must prepare in advance." Li Si said worriedly.
Ying Zheng nodded and said: "I have other plans for this matter, but there is still one thing that I can't solve."
"What's the matter, Your Majesty?" Feng Quji asked.
Ying Zheng said: "Money. It costs money to lay wires, and it also costs money to make wires. The imperial court is currently paying for military pay in the north and south, which has caused a emptiness in the treasury.
Although the food production in Baiyue Land is already very high, the road in Baiyue Land is very difficult, and it is extremely difficult to open a way out.
Therefore, the food in Baiyue Land can only solve the military ration in the south and give the court a breather, but it cannot solve all the problems of the court.
It seems that Qin An's policy must be implemented. In the future, all taxes will be collected from copper coins, gold coins and silver coins, so that coins will become completely popular.
The people's food was collected by the imperial court and local officials, and all workshops and shops were investigated using Qin'an's accounting model. "
"This may cause dissatisfaction among the people." Feng Quji said worriedly.
Ying Zheng sneered and said: "They dare not complain, and at the same time I gave them both the accounting method and the abacus."
When Li Si and Feng Quji heard this, they both gave Ying Zheng a thumbs up.
Li Si said: "Gao, your majesty's tricks have left everyone speechless."
Ying Zheng smiled and said: "Now that the commercial law has been issued, it is time to implement it. Through this investigation, those who evade taxes will be given the opportunity to make up their taxes.
Within the stipulated time, if someone fails to pay taxes without justifiable reasons, then I will severely punish them. "
"The village chief is wise." Li Si and three others said at the same time.
Ying Zheng nodded calmly and said again: "Go to Qin An after dinner. I want to know how to lay wires."
Some people died, but not completely...
