"No, no, no! If you want to bet, don't count me in!"
However, Zhang Han waved his hands repeatedly and said nothing.
"I'm talking about Lao Zhang, since your wife is not at home anyway, just take a gamble! What if you win? Isn't there another sum in your private coffers?"
"That's right! Just give it a little more pressure! Even if you lose, you can treat it as a loss in mahjong!"
Meng Yi and Meng Tian wanted to place a bet and began to persuade them.
"Lao Meng, you'd better shut up. If you want to place a bet, don't cheat us! Don't you think about it, when has His Majesty ever lost a bet? Since Your Majesty dares to use the artifact of Qianli Sound Transmission to bet, then Prove that it can be made!”
Zhang Han curled his lips and still shook his head.
"Impossible! How can there be a thousand-mile voice transmission in this world?"
Meng Yi obviously didn't believe it.
"Then have you ever seen an iron nugget that can run without an ox or a horse, or has it traveled a thousand miles in a day?"
"Uh...no!"
"Have you ever seen a hot air balloon that can carry people into the sky?"
"Uh...no!"
"Have you ever seen a steel ship floating in the sea without the need for human power to rock the oars?"
"nor!"
"Isn't that the end? Your Majesty has built so many incredible machines, how can you still not believe it?"
"Yeah! That's right...!"
After listening to Zhang Han's analysis, Meng Yi's interest that had just been sparked was extinguished, "Oh! Let's forget it!"
Although it is very tempting for Your Majesty to offer a bet of one to lose three, you cannot go up knowing that you are losing.
After all, my money didn’t come from the strong wind!
"How about it? Still no bet?"
Ying Feiyu glanced around at everyone and asked with a smirk on his face.
"No, no, no bet!"
The old guys still shook their heads and didn't want to take out a penny.
"Okay then, let's leave this matter behind!"
Ying Feiyu shook his head helplessly.
"Is the machine your Majesty mentioned called a telephone?"
Huang Yuan asked.
Ying Feiyu was stunned for a moment, "Huh? How do you know?"
"That's what His Majesty just said!"
"call……!"
Hearing this, Ying Feiyu breathed a sigh of relief.
I thought this old guy had also traveled through time!
"That's right. This kind of machine that can transmit sound over thousands of miles is called a telephone! Let alone thousands of miles, even if it is thousands of miles or a hundred thousand miles, the sound can be transmitted clearly!"
Ying Feiyu smiled.
"Oh? What's the point?"
Yingheng became very interested in this novel machine.
"Same as the telegraph machine, it still uses electromagnetic waves...!"
Immediately afterwards, Ying Feiyu explained to him the general principle of telephone sound transmission.
The craftsmen in the workshop put down their work and listened carefully.
But it involves a lot of knowledge points, and everyone is confused.
Even Ying Heng and Huang Yuan can only understand some of the superficial ones!
Not to mention the old guys, they are no different from listening to heavenly books.
In other words, the phrase "electromagnetic wave" is a word they are familiar with, and they have never heard of the other words!
"Your Majesty, if the phone research is done and there is a war in the future, will your Majesty be able to keep abreast of the situation on the battlefield in Xianyang and give command?"
As a general, Wang Ben would always think of the battlefield immediately whenever something new was researched.
See what is the connection between the two and how it can help the war!
"Old Wang, shut up that crow mouth! I, the Qin Dynasty, have already unified the world, so how can there be a war? Besides, the people have only lived a good life for a few days? You are starting a war again!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chunyu Yue started to complain.
"This is what I call preparing for a rainy day! It is good for the Qin Dynasty to be stable, and I also hope that the people can live a stable life for a few days! But it is useless to just think about it. There will always be a small group of people who are not in harmony with the group and want to make some small moves!"
Although the large-scale war has ended, no one can guarantee that there will be no internal strife in Great Qin in the future.
This is why His Majesty said that disarmament cannot be carried out and the arsenal has never stopped producing weapons and ammunition!
I am just afraid that if there is a war in the future, the court will not be able to deal with it!
"Well! In fact, what Lao Wang said makes sense! No one can guarantee that he will always be stable in the future!"
"Yep……!"
Several other veterans strongly supported Wang Ben's opinion and nodded repeatedly.
Then he turned his attention to Ying Feiyu!
"Well! It's possible, but there are certain limitations...!"
Ying Feiyu nodded first, and then analyzed the limitations of the phone.
"It turns out that the telephone cannot be like a telegraph machine. You can move it wherever you want. You can move it at any time!"
After some explanation, everyone finally understood why His Majesty said that the telephone had limitations.
"That's right! So, even if the telephone is developed, the telegraph will still be practical!"
In later generations, even if wireless mobile phones were developed, some people still used telegraph machines.
It wasn't until mobile phones and telephones became popular in every household that the telegraph agency was replaced.
"I see!"
Everyone nodded as if they were enlightened.
"Haha, Huang Yuan, you have to study it quickly and buy one later!"
"Yes! If there is such a new thing, I have to buy it!"
"And me, if we meet again later, I just need to let you know on the phone. There is no need to send people everywhere to look for him!"
"You're right! Haha...!"
At this point, several people have believed in the existence of such a magical machine as Qianli Sound Transmission, and have begun to imagine the scene of sitting at home and calling each other in the future.
The veterans are now among the richest households in Xianyang City. As long as there is something new, they will always be the first to try it and be at the forefront of fashion!
"I would like to research it faster, but I have to build the air conditioner first? I can't just abandon this one and grab that one! In the end, the time to build both machines will be extended!"
Huang Yuan shrugged helplessly.
He only has two eyes and one pair of hands.
Things can only be completed bit by bit!
"Don't worry, I haven't started drawing the detailed drawings of the phone yet. Once I get the time to draw the drawings, the air-conditioning side should also be tested and I can supervise the craftsmen for mass production! Besides, with the help of the imperial brother, we will definitely get twice the result with half the effort!"
Ying Feiyu looked at Ying Heng and said with a smile.
He has a strong interest in technology, but his exposure time is relatively short and his experience is relatively small.
Otherwise, you can give the phone to him for research!
"With the help of Gongzi Heng, it will indeed be of great help to us and speed up the research and manufacturing of telephones!"
Huang Yuan nodded and responded.
"Then there's Brother Lao Huang!"
Ying Feiyu smiled and said polite words.
"I have to thank the Emperor for his trust in allowing me to participate in the research and manufacture of telephones! Why did you thank me before you even opened your mouth?"
Ying Heng's face was both excited and excited.
"Okay, this is all for the development of Da Qin, so there is no need for you and me to be polite!"
Ying Feiyu smiled.
