"Father, are you looking for me?"
An hour later, Ying Feiyu appeared in the imperial study.
Seeing him arriving, Ying Zheng and Zhang Han looked at each other with a very thief expression.
"Ahem...uh...! Yes! Let Zhang Shangshu tell you!"
Ying Zheng touched his nose awkwardly and pushed the matter to Zhang Han.
The telegraph business was snatched away by the imperial court, but after asking the price, they regretted it.
Ying Zheng suddenly felt that he was losing face, and it was hard to express it!
"Um?"
Ying Feiyu tilted his head and looked at Zhang Han.
"That's right, Your Majesty, just after I left Bieyuan, I went straight to the palace and reported the matter to Your Majesty. Your Majesty felt that the court should not compete with the people for profit. It would be a bit unfair to set up a telegraph bureau to make money from the people. It’s appropriate, I’m afraid it will cause criticism from the people! But if there is no charge at all, the subsequent expenses will be huge!”
Zhang Han made a very embarrassed expression.
"What does Zhang Shangshu mean...?"
"Let us leave the telegraph machine to you, the Crown Prince! No matter how much you make, the court won't be involved! Hehe!"
Zhang Han showed a sly smile.
"oh……!"
After hearing these words, Ying Feiyu finally understood.
The two old pickers backed down after they heard that there would be a lot of fees in the follow-up and they couldn't charge too much from the people.
Why can't you compete with the people for profit?
When the cooperative was first established to rent tractors to the people, they never said they couldn't compete with the people for profit!
The tractor is about to make its money back, and isn't that old guy Zhang Han grinning from ear to ear?
"Is the imperial court determined not to do business with this telegraph machine?"
Ying Feiyu tilted his head and raised his eyebrows in question.
"OK, sure!"
Zhang Han nodded repeatedly.
"Let me tell you first, this telegraph machine is very profitable!"
"I won't do that either, hehe, I won't do it!"
Even though Ying Feiyu told them the truth, Zhang Han still felt that this kid wanted to trick the court.
"Father? Are you sure you don't want to do this?"
Seeing Zhang Han's cowardice, Ying Feiyu turned his attention to Ying Zheng.
Don't look back and see that he made money. These two old guys said that he didn't give them a chance!
"Well! I have already thought about it. No matter how much the court sets the price for the telegraph machine, some people will find it too expensive! Let me leave it to you!"
Ying Zheng had the same attitude as Zhang Han, saying that he did not want to take over the private business of telegraph machines.
"Okay! Since the imperial court doesn't want to do it, let me do it for you. How about giving some shares to the imperial court?"
"No need, if the court says it won't participate, then it will definitely not participate!"
Ying Zheng's attitude was very determined.
"Father, don't regret it in the future!"
"Don't worry! I will never regret it!"
"OK!"
At this time, although Ying Zheng knew the convenience of the telegraph machine, he had not realized how much profit this communication industry would bring in the future.
Like trains and electricity, this is a monopolized industry.
Although the results are slow, whoever has it in his hands can make a lot of money and it can be passed down from generation to generation!
Before, he just didn't want to do it because it was troublesome. Now that the court doesn't want it, he won't be polite!
In the future, it is guaranteed to make Ying Zhenggui’s intestines turn green!
After leaving the imperial study, Ying Feiyu went to Huang Yuan and asked him to find a few trustworthy subordinates to take charge of the telegraph machine!
"Your Highness, didn't you say that the matter of the telegraph machine has been reported to the imperial court?"
Huang Yuan was puzzled.
"Yes! But my father and Zhang Han are unwilling to do it because they think the follow-up investment of the telegraph machine is high and the profit is small! There is no other way, I just need to take over it!"
Ying Feiyu shrugged helplessly.
"If this happens, I'm afraid His Majesty will regret it in the future!"
"Hmph! Even if his intestines become regretful in the future, it is impossible for me to give him to the court again!"
They didn't do it when the communications industry first developed. Once it developed and made a lot of money, they would have no choice if they wanted to do it again.
"How about leaving this telegraph business to Gongzi Heng to manage?"
Huang Yuan knew the importance of the telegraph machine. If it was handed over to an unreliable person, it would be taken advantage of in the future if it was not guaranteed.
So he thought again and again and thought of Ying Heng.
Since the beginning of studying electricity, this young master has been almost by his side, studying with him.
He was also involved in the telegraph machine.
And he is a member of the royal family, so it is most appropriate to hand over the telegraph business to him!
"It's just...I wonder if this is appropriate?"
After saying that, Huang Yuan felt a little regretful.
After all, he is also a young man, so it is not good to let him take care of these chores!
"It doesn't matter whether it is suitable or not. As long as he is willing, it is suitable! The prince also needs to keep himself busy and be a useful person to Da Qin. He cannot eat, drink and entertain himself all day long, and live in a muddle-headed way!"
Ying Feiyu felt that Ying Heng's choice should be respected in this matter.
It should be up to him to decide whether to manage the telegraph business or not!
It's better to keep yourself busy than to stay in the palace and be a prince that no one wants to see!
He could clearly feel that since Ying Heng often left the palace and followed Huang Yuan to do scientific research and build these machines, his whole person had changed a lot.
He talks more than before and often has a smile on his face!
"Okay! Don't worry, Your Highness, leave this matter to me!"
With his words, Huang Yuan felt relieved.
"Well! Originally, the imperial court planned to set up a telegraph company to manage the telegraph business. Now that my father doesn't want to take over, let's set up a telegraph company to focus on the telegraph business!"
"yes……!"
Huang Yuan responded and suddenly laughed, "The imperial court really missed a great opportunity to make money!"
"There's no way! I've asked this prince many times, and Zhang Han and my father's heads are shaking like rattles!"
Thinking of the scene in the royal study, Ying Feiyu suddenly felt funny.
In a few years, we will definitely see two old thugs looking like they are exhausted!
Just thinking about it makes me feel happy!
Then Ying Feiyu explained some things about the telegraph company. Huang Yuan listened attentively, nodded repeatedly, and kept every item in mind!
Then he went to find Ying Heng.
When Ying Heng learned that he was going to manage the telegraph company, he almost jumped up with joy.
As if he couldn't believe it, he asked again and again, "Are you sure you want to hand over the management of the telegraph company to me?"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said, as long as the young master is willing, it can be done!"
Huang Yuan nodded firmly.
"Yes! Yes! Of course I do!"
Ying Heng nodded as fast as pounding garlic, as if this was the only way to express the joy in his heart.
Needless to say, Yingheng was really concerned about this matter. In just three days, the telegraph company was already in business.
Just wait for the mass production of telegraph machines and the training of telegraph operators to be completed, and then you can start working and make money!
The telegraph industry, unlike electricity, needs to cultivate talents in electricity and set up wires!
As for the telegraph machine, you only need to find a room in each county, hang a plaque, move the machine there, and have a telegraph operator in place, and you can start making money!
Now that the head office has been established, the next step is to recruit troops, develop branches in various counties and counties in Daqin, and wait for the production of telegraph machines!
