Chapter 987

For the time being, it is not realistic to spread the telephone to thousands of households.

Without him, the installation fee of the telephone alone is not acceptable to ordinary people, let alone the monthly rental fee and communication fee.

The installation fee is 50 Liang silver, the monthly rent is one or two silver, and the telephone fee is 60 Wen every five minutes. Less than five minutes is calculated as five minutes.

Ren 8000 knows that this is a trend, and the future is not far, that is, 20 or 30 years at most.

But for the time being, the main targets of the telephone are the imperial court and businessmen.

At the same time, there is a public telephone.

Ren 8000 plans to lay the public telephone in the whole Dayao area, including the place of clouds and sky view, and use the coin of the public telephone to recover copper coins.

As for the cables needed to lay telephone lines, Ren 8000 has also made a lot of preparations for this.

As early as a year ago, Ren 8000 introduced a new coin, a copper-clad steel alloy coin, with a face value equivalent to five copper coins.

Although countless rails are used to lay railways, the price of steel is even higher than that of copper.

With the promulgation of a new decree, no one is allowed to reject new coins, and those who are reported will be fined or flogged. Therefore, after a little confusion, this beautifully made new coins was carried out.

Taking this opportunity, Ren 8000 recycled a large number of copper coins in the market and melted them into cables.

However, there are still a large number of copper coins in circulation in the market. Even with his massive recovery of copper coins, the price of copper coins has increased.

In the next step, Ren 8000 is ready to exchange the copper coins on the market for aluminum magnesium alloy coins by means of a coin telephone, and completely replace the old coins with new coins.

There's no way. What's worse than iron deficiency is copper deficiency.

At present, the two largest copper mines are in Daxia, and in the north. Ren 8000 has no interest in Daxia, and the location of the two copper mines also determines that Dayao cannot send troops to directly occupy the copper mine.

As for the copper mine in chuyun, the output is still insufficient for any 8000 demand, and the cable is the largest copper consumer at present.

Ren 8000 can only temporarily put his goal on the copper coins in the market to solve the urgent need.

After demonstrating the telephone to many ministers in the court, Ren 8000 first sent each of you a telephone, including installation.

Of course, they still have to pay their own monthly rent and communication fees.

Then, at the sign of the female emperor, the Ministry of household directly ordered 1000 telephones from the 8000 Royal communication company, which will connect all cities and most important departments in the whole Dayao area except the cloud area.

The female emperor gave another order to chuyun that each department of each city must install a telephone.

In fact, the money is not much. It adds up to more than 3000 telephones and more than 100000 liang of silver.

But it pushed the phone directly to the world.

Through this, Ren 8000 felt that he and the female emperor were the greatest example of collusion between officials and businessmen.

Of course, as soon as the order went down, there was no response in the cloud area except for the head of the household department who nodded on the spot. But no one will refute the empress's face on this matter.

Moreover, the importance of the telephone is indeed unparalleled. Its importance and significance are no less than or even greater than that of the tractor.

Ren 8000 officially opened a corner of the door of the communication era.

After the demonstration in the hall, Ren 8000 started to publicize while letting people lay the telephone line from LAN city to chuyun.

At the same time, the personnel recruited from Tianjing are also under intense training.

After tianjingdi recruited a large number of workers to build a new city, Ren 8000 finally began to use the manpower of tianjingdi.

Between Lancheng and Tianjing, Ren 8000 also built a new city.

The so-called new town is just a brick house and factory, not even a fence.

Of course, this is also the standard of the city in the future. Without walls, it saves a lot of manpower and material resources, and it is also convenient for expansion.

At present, the new town is mainly responsible for the production of telephone sets, wires and telephone lines.

It saves seven or eight hundred miles to send rubber here from near the state of Chen than to Lancheng.

Moreover, Ren 8000 has prepared to plan a new factory near the southeast capital Hufu, which is specially responsible for processing rubber.

……

"The haze and fog are heavy today, and the rivers and mountains are deep here.

The sound of the beach is more urgent in autumn, and the gas in the gorge is more cloudy than dawn.

Looking at the que cloud to cover your eyes, homesick rain drops your heart.

Will he comfort you alone? Rely on this North Window piano. "

"Feeling overflows in the scenery and moves the heart; the sentence pattern is neat and natural! I don't know who wrote this poem. It can be called everyone's name!" In the restaurant, several scholars sat around the table. Someone clapped his hands with a fan and exclaimed.

"It's really good! It should be the hand of Prince Zhao. He is not an ancient people. It's not surprising that he writes such poems in a foreign land."

"He has a beauty in his arms and power in his hand. I'm afraid he enjoys it!" Someone chuckled.

"Beauty in your arms? That's not true. Is that your majesty a general warm fragrant nephrite?" Someone looked around and whispered with a smile.

"It's better to talk less about these things." There is an old man who pays steady attention to the surrounding roads.

It would be very difficult to talk about the emperor in private if it spread to others!

"I've heard that Prince Zhao is good at heavenly work and miscellaneous skills. I didn't expect that he is also proficient in poetry!"

"The way of poetry is only to cultivate temperament, which is not beneficial to the governance of the country." Someone shook his head. "It's the telephone. I don't know what you think?"

What people are talking about is a poem that has recently spread in the city.

And there's another sentence behind this poem——

"Homesick? Call home!"

A poem, a sentence, will lead the new thing of telephone directly to everyone.

This poem and this sentence are printed on a piece of paper, with a picture of a telephone below.

On the back of the paper is a brief introduction to the telephone and the handling place of the Royal telephone business hall in chuyun cities.

As soon as this advertising leaflet appeared, it immediately detonated the whole cloud.

"It's incredible that you can use this thing to talk instantly thousands of miles away. I don't know whether it's true or false!" Humane.

"No, it's true. It has been spread all over the world. If it's empty, it will become a laughing stock! How can Prince Zhao act so unwisely?"

"Moreover, it is said that the city government ordered the installation of the telephone, calculated the time, and it will be installed in five to seven days. We'll know how it is."

"If it's really like what's said on that piece of paper, this phone is great. No matter what happens anywhere in the future, LAN Cheng can know immediately and give orders immediately. It's terrible to think about it."

"You don't know." "As like as two peas," a young man whispered, "do you think this is the case? Actually, it was long ago. I heard my uncle say that there was a court order in the city, and he went to the Northeast mansion, but it answered in a quarter of an hour."

"Even if you don't say this, you can now study the movements of the troops of the Northeast capital guard during the war a few years ago..."

"Stop talking!" Someone stopped him. "It's useless to talk about it. We shouldn't talk about it. Be careful to bring disaster!"

"Brother Zhu, you are too careful. As long as you have a heart, you can detect it. Can you stop the world's population?" The scholar disapproved.

"But this phone call is also good for us. If we go out for a trip in the future, it's very convenient to call home and ask about the recent situation."

"That's true!"

"Travel can only increase your knowledge, but you still have to sell it to the emperor's house in the end.

Now the clouds are gone, and the big exam is gone. I don't know where my way out is! " Someone sighed.

As soon as he said this, the people immediately quieted down.
