After inspecting the factory, Zhu Xuan lamented that the current development is so fast.
If Yingtian was not suitable for building power plants, electricity could have been tested for commercial and civilian use, but now it could only be used in the palace and could not be popularized among the people for the time being.
How to use it for civilian use in the future will be considered in the future.
In addition to the development of factories, cities are also developing. The structure of houses of people outside the city is different from before. Some modern buildings gradually appear in the capital city.
Zhu Xuan is even thinking about whether to build high-rise buildings and so on.
However, the steps should not be too big. It is difficult to develop in one go. Zhu Xuan could only follow the rules and proceed slowly, slowly changing the Ming Dynasty.
After returning from the factory, a group of technicians followed Zhu Xuan back to the palace.
The wires in the palace were spread over a large area. Zhu Xuan found an empty place and asked the technicians to remove the things needed for the telegraph and assemble them here.
The first is the base station, and then the various instruments.
"My dear grandson, what are you doing?"
When Zhu Yuanzhang received the news reported by Yun Qi, he immediately came over and asked.
Zhu Xuan explained: "Grandpa Huang, our telegraph has been rolled out. With Yingtian Prefecture as the center, all prefectures within a thousand miles have at least one telegraph station and base station. My grandson wants to do it. In the palace, it will be much easier to give orders in the future."
"real?"
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up as he listened.
He has already experienced the epoch-making invention of the telegraph. It is definitely a good thing. In the future, it will be much more convenient for the issuance of various government orders and the submission of various documents by the officials below.
In an instant, it can be transmitted thousands of miles.
If used properly, it can bring a lot of convenience to the Ming Dynasty and make governance more convenient.
"yes!"
Zhu Xuan nodded and said: "Currently it can only be spread within a thousand miles. It will take time to roll out further. Some larger prefectures will consider laying out more than one."
"This is great!"
With a smile on his face, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the technicians who were tinkering with the instruments. He leaned over to take a look, but he couldn't understand what it was at all.
I just think it looks awesome.
It’s enough to be awesome!
"Well done, my dear grandson!"
Zhu Yuanzhang said with satisfaction: "This good thing is really good, but do those people in the government agencies everywhere know how to use it?"
Zhu Xuan said calmly: "Grandpa Huang, don't worry, people from the Science Pavilion will be assigned to various places. Those students have learned so much and they should put it to practical use."
Zhu Yuanzhang said reassuringly: "That's good. When your railway is completed, and with this telegram here, we can do whatever we want, haha... My dear grandson is so awesome!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was very proud when he thought that his good grandson knew so many things.
The future is an all-powerful emperor.
It is the blessing of the Ming Dynasty to have such an emperor!
The two of them, grandfather and grandson, watched the telegram being assembled for a while, and then went to read the memorial together. They couldn't understand it anyway, so it was enough to know that it could be used in the future.
Had dinner.
Zhu Xuan went back to the East Palace, picked up a pencil made by their factory, held his head and thought for a while, and wrote out a new encoding and encryption method. Then he took it to the Science Pavilion and taught it to the people below.
Fortunately, Zhu Xuan had learned a little bit of everything before time travel, otherwise he wouldn't know how to improve technology for the Science Pavilion now.
When she was almost done writing, Cen Hua brought over a bowl of sweet soup and said with a smile: "Your Highness, you have been busy very late. Please drink something to relax first."
Zhu Xuan quickly finished writing the last content, picked up the sweet soup and drank it in one gulp, then asked with a smile: "Is this Hua'er, cooked by your own hands?"
Cen Hua smiled happily and said, "Yes, does His Highness like it?"
"Of course I do!"
Zhu Xuan hugged her as he spoke and said softly: "So tonight, will Hua'er come over to sleep with you?"
Hearing this, Cen Hua's face turned pink and she nodded shyly.
It was a romantic night.
Early the next morning, Zhu Xuan ran to the Science Pavilion to teach him a new set of coding. When he returned to the palace, he saw that the technicians had finished assembling the telegraph station.
Zhu Yuanzhang also came and looked at the telegraph station with interest.
The technicians immediately tested it and connected to the signal from the factory. The distance was not very far and the signal was still very smooth. So they tested with the factory to see how the transmission went, and then tested and contacted intelligence stations in various places within a thousand miles.
"Grandpa Huang, this is the content of the telegram coming back from Huai'an."
Zhu Xuan picked up a piece of paper, which contained the deciphered content, which was a relatively detailed description of the local situation in Huai'an.
Zhu Yuanzhang thought of the memorials sent from Huai'an recently. Many of the contents were the same as those sent by telegrams. They could really communicate thousands of miles. He sighed: "The last time we were in the factory, the distance was only one mile. Now from Huai'an to the capital... …It can be transmitted quickly over such a long distance, the telegraph is magical!”
He still couldn't figure out how words were transmitted via telegraph.
Completely subverting the concepts of people in this era.
"In the future, there will be something that can communicate even though people are thousands of miles apart. My grandson asked the people below to study it."
"There is another kind of car that is not a train, but it is not a carriage. It does not need a horse and can go very fast."
"Besides, things that can fly are not like hot air balloons. People in the Science Pavilion have also begun to study them."
"In the future, the Ming Dynasty will become more and more amazing to Grandpa Huang."
Zhu Xuan briefly explained the plan.
Zhu Yuanzhang was full of expectations when he heard it. It turns out that science is so useful, but he just doesn't know if he still has time to see those things.
He didn't dare to say anything like that.
I was afraid that my good grandson would say that it was unlucky for him to come again.
“Well done!”
Zhu Yuanzhang felt very satisfied, but he was worried: "My grandson has done so much, so he invested a lot of money in it, right?"
Zhu Xuan said: "The investment is indeed huge, but after these are built, they will be stable in the future and only need to pay a small maintenance fee. In addition, they can also be used for civilian and commercial purposes in the future. My grandson should have said, In addition to transporting food and troops, the railway can also be used by civilians when free, and you can get on the train by paying the fare."
But by doing this, Zhu Xuan didn't expect to be able to earn back the cost. It was still difficult to make a profit in this era. As long as he could earn back the maintenance cost, that would be good.
These development models were far beyond Zhu Yuanzhang's cognition. He didn't understand them very well, but he thought they were very powerful: "We can rest assured that the future Ming Dynasty will be in your hands."
"My grandson will definitely not let Grandpa Huang down."
Zhu Xuan assured.
Of course Zhu Yuanzhang believed that he would not be disappointed. He was very happy now. He took Zhu Xuan's hand and went back, almost having two more drinks to celebrate.
Zhu Xuan cannot let Grandpa Huang drink casually.
However, thinking that there were still some backlogged affairs that had not been resolved, they called the central officials of the DPRK and Central Government over to discuss what should be done.
Discussing political affairs is relatively dull and boring, just like those companies meeting hundreds of years later, but they have to meet to deal with it.
