Chapter 160 Communication Network
  As soon as Su Chen finished speaking, the system put the product link in the live broadcast room.

The ancient people of various dynasties had already made sufficient preparations, especially the emperors of each dynasty, who rushed to buy walkie-talkies at an extremely fast speed.

Under everyone's crazy rush to buy, the products were sold out by ancient people from all dynasties the moment they were put on the shelves.

To them, the walkie-talkie is simply an artifact for transmitting information. If they grab it, it is equivalent to possessing an immortal magic weapon.

In their view, the magical function of the walkie-talkie is no different from the legendary magic weapon.

If you grab enough walkie-talkies, you can know what is happening all over the country in an instant, and even news from the ends of the world can be known in an instant.

The ancients who didn't grab it immediately sighed, it was such a pity that a magic weapon slipped away from under their noses.

As for the ancient people from various dynasties who grabbed the walkie-talkies, they were all ecstatic and were already thinking about how to use walkie-talkies to make their lives more convenient.

Great Qin.

Ying Zheng: Hahaha, I knew I could definitely grab it. One hundred sets.

Seeing the small boxes piled up on the ground, Ying Zheng trembled with excitement.

His mood at this moment was beyond words, and he didn't know how to describe it.

He knew very well what a hundred sets of walkie-talkies meant. If one walkie-talkie was connected to communicate, the distance could reach nearly two thousand kilometers.

That's an extremely long distance of two thousand kilometers. The farthest distance between the north and south of their Great Qin territory is less than two thousand kilometers, and the farthest distance between the east and west is less than one thousand kilometers.

Two thousand kilometers means that the call range of the walkie-talkie can cover all parts of the country.

With Xianyang as the center, a walkie-talkie can be installed in all major counties across the country.

In this way, he can know immediately what happens in key counties across the country every day, which greatly enhances his control over all parts of the country.

More importantly, with the walkie-talkie, he could learn about any movement on the border immediately and respond quickly.

He took a deep breath, and a communication map covering the entire Da Qin appeared in his mind.

There are a total of forty-eight counties in Da Qin. If every county is connected through a walkie-talkie, then he will be able to learn about any disturbances in all places in the world immediately.

However, it is probably impossible to do this with just one hundred sets of walkie-talkies in hand.

But it didn't matter, he was not the only one who snapped up walkie-talkies, his ministers also grabbed a lot of them.

Then he moved his eyes away from the walkie-talkie on the ground, raised his head and scanned the whole place.

Ying Zheng: Dear Sirs, how have you gained?

Ying Zheng looked at the walkie-talkies held in the arms of many ministers and felt particularly comfortable.

In order to rush to buy the walkie-talkies tonight, he specially ordered all the ministers to come over.

Because through the previous rush to buy goods, he has discovered the pattern.

It is easier for those famous civil and military ministers to grab goods than ordinary people. The greater their fame, not only the probability of grabbing goods is greater, but also the quantity they grab is larger.

Fusu: Father, I have grabbed eighty sets of walkie-talkies.

Wang Jian: Your Majesty, I have grabbed eighty sets of walkie-talkies.

Wang Ben (ben): Returning to your majesty, I grabbed seventy sets.

Meng Tian: Your Majesty, Wei Chen grabbed ninety sets of walkie-talkies.

Meng Yi: I grabbed ninety sets.

Zhang Han: I grabbed seventy sets.

Li Si: Your Majesty, I grabbed ninety sets.

……

……

Shaoping: Your Majesty, I grabbed fifty sets.

Yao Jia: I grabbed forty sets.

As the courtiers below reported, Ying Zheng's smile never stopped.

He roughly estimated in his mind that there were nearly a thousand sets of walkie-talkies in total.

He knew very well what this concept was.

One thousand sets of walkie-talkies are enough for him to build an intelligence network covering every county in the country.

With Xianyang as the center, every county and every county was connected through walkie-talkies, and a dragnet covering the entire Qin Dynasty was laid.

He already had the idea in mind to establish an organization dedicated to monitoring counties across the country.

As for the name of this organization, it is called Luowen.

Datang.

Li Shimin looked at the walkie-talkies that the surrounding ministers were rushing to buy, with a smile on his face and great pride in his heart.

This walkie-talkie is an artifact of communication. Whether it is used in the military or people's livelihood, it is a weapon that benefits the people of the Tang Dynasty.

He had made full preparations for this rush to buy walkie-talkies.

Last time, he invited all the famous people in Chang'an City to buy high-yielding crops, and the effect was very good, and the harvest was very rich.

There were nearly 2,000 people who had rushed to buy crop seeds, and then he selected some of the lucky ones from the 2,000 people.

Seeing that most of the nearly five hundred people in front of him had good gains, he knew that his decision was correct.

Although he didn't know what a walkie-talkie was, he could guess that it was a technological product of later generations.    For them in the Tang Dynasty, the technological products of later generations had various magical functions.

It was precisely because of this that he ordered these five hundred people to come together to buy walkie-talkies.

If, as he expected, the walkie-talkies were indeed of great use to the Tang Dynasty, then the walkie-talkies that everyone snapped up would naturally be returned to the imperial court.

If you think wrong, the walkie-talkie is just an ordinary thing and does not affect the country of the Tang Dynasty. Then what everyone grabs belongs to themselves.

But now it seems that the walkie-talkie is an artifact of communication and has a profound impact on Datang, so he will naturally accept it unceremoniously.

Li Shimin: How about it? Have the statistics been calculated?
  Changsun Wuji: Your Majesty, I have already counted them all. There are a total of 3,158 sets of walkie-talkies.

Li Shimin: Hahaha! good! good! good!
  Hearing more than 3,000 sets of walkie-talkies, he couldn't help laughing loudly. This kind of laughter had only occurred when he had snatched high-yielding staple food seeds before.

Some of the subjects below felt very uncomfortable. This walkie-talkie was a treasure. They had obviously snatched it themselves, but now they could only hand it over to the court.

Everyone wants to own this kind of artifact, but there is nothing they can do about it. No matter how unwilling they are to be willing to do something that the emperor likes, there is nothing they can do.

After Li Shimin laughed, he also noticed the displeasure of some ministers and people.

Li Shimin: You have made great contributions this time, and I will never forget it. I will give you the rewards you deserve.

As a wise king, he naturally knows how to distinguish rewards and punishments, and rewards must be given for great achievements, so that everyone will be motivated to buy goods next time.

When some unwilling subjects heard this, their faces suddenly burst into smiles.

In this case, they have no complaints.

Li Shimin: In addition to rewards, I also plan to set up a communication network covering all parts of the country, connecting all counties in the country through walkie-talkies. You can also use it when the time comes.

As soon as these words came out, some of the big businessmen below were extremely excited.

If it is true as His Majesty said, it will be much easier for them to do business in the future.

Wherever there is a shortage or shortage of goods in any part of the country, they can seize business opportunities as soon as possible and make huge profits.

But there are also some ministers and aristocratic families who have solemn expressions on their faces and are extremely anxious in their hearts.

Your Majesty will establish a communication network covering all parts of the country. By then, Your Majesty will be able to know what is happening anywhere in the country in an instant.

This is simply a disaster for their aristocratic family, which means that His Majesty can monitor their every move at all times.

Their aristocratic family is the local emperor in the local area. The mountains are high and the emperor is far away. No matter what they do, His Majesty cannot know.

But now if His Majesty has established an intelligence network, then they will be exposed to His Majesty's eyes all the time.

At that time, no matter what happens to them, His Majesty will be informed of it immediately.

When they thought of this, they complained, but there was nothing they could do about it.

After His Majesty established an intelligence network across the country, he said that it could be used by them, but how could they dare to use it?

If some news is sent out through the intercom, His Majesty will know it immediately. There will be no privacy at all at that time.

But even if it is used, it can only convey some irrelevant information. Maybe this is the only convenience for them.

Ming dynasty.

Zhu Di: You are indeed my great eldest son and grandson. In addition to the 100 sets I grabbed, I now have 300 sets of walkie-talkies.

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanji beside him with satisfaction. Their father and son were very lucky and each grabbed a hundred sets of walkie-talkies.

Three hundred sets of walkie-talkies are far enough if they are only used for border military purposes.

But if it were used across the country, it would not be enough. It was still far from enough.

After all, there are many provinces in the country, even more state capitals, and thousands of counties.

He was very ambitious. When he learned about the magical function of the walkie-talkie, he had an intelligence network covering the entire Ming Dynasty in his mind.

Every state capital and every county is monitored with walkie-talkies.

The current three hundred sets are not enough, but it doesn't matter, he has already sent people to collect walkie-talkies.

Based on his previous experience in buying goods, many people in the capital can grab them.

The more respected the status and reputation, the greater the probability of grabbing it.

Therefore, just buy it back directly from those lucky people in Beijing.

Zhu Zhanji: Grandpa Huang, the anchor said that the maximum communication distance of the walkie-talkie is ten kilometers. Let's give it a try.

Zhu Di: Okay, my grandson’s words are exactly what I want. Then grandson, please take a walkie-talkie and try the effect.

Zhu Di opened the box and debugged the walkie-talkie according to the method taught by the anchor.

Zhu Zhanji then took one of the walkie-talkies, rode on the thousand-mile horse that had been prepared and ran towards the gate of the capital.

The city gate is about three kilometers away from the palace. Zhu Zhanji reached the city gate in a short time while waving his whip.

Zhu Zhanji: Grandpa Huang, I’m at the south gate, can you hear me?

Zhu Di was so excited when he heard the emperor's grandson's voice coming from the walkie-talkie in his hand. The scene in front of him was simply a miracle.

Being able to have unobstructed conversations across a long distance is nothing short of a miracle.

Zhu Di: Grandson, I heard you. If you go another seven kilometers south, I will see if I can still hear you.

Zhu Zhanji: Okay, Grandpa Huang, wait for me for a moment.

Zhu Zhanji was particularly excited when he felt the magical function of the walkie-talkie. He held the walkie-talkie tightly in his hand, and then rode his horse towards the distance.
