I'm a big dick

Chapter 393 Raising scientific research funds, the whole people "raise Zhu"

This month's updates can only be less, and I will do my best to prepare for the supplementary exam in November. It will only take one month, so I have to study hard!Sorry for this, please understand my friends.

For Zhu Youxiao, posing more than 200 configurations is obviously too complicated.Not only is it easy to make mistakes during the relay relay, but it also places high demands on the staff on the communication tower.

If it is alphabetized, only 26 information expression methods are needed; if it is the Chinese code of later generations, a Chinese character can be expressed with four numbers; if it is binary coded, only two types are needed: 0 and 1.

The simpler it is, the less likely it is to make mistakes. This is the design principle determined by Zhu Youxiao.Obviously, turning Chinese characters into digital codes is more acceptable to the ancients.

For example, in the Chinese code of later generations, the code of "I" is "2053"; the code of "love" is "1947"; the code of "you" is "0132" and so on.

If confidentiality is considered, the staff of the signal tower are only responsible for relaying the signal, and only the staff at both ends have the "Chinese Character Code Table" to send and translate.

Even, the army can adopt another kind of coding to distinguish it from civilian use, and it can also be more confidential.

As for the way to represent ten numbers, that is simple, and it is easier to operate than using wooden poles and cantilevers to make more than a hundred configurations.

As for this work, Zhu Youxiao handed it over to the Academy of Sciences, and introduced it to the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce and the Changjiang Chamber of Commerce.

Zhu Youxiao believes that whether a person's breadth and breadth of thinking can inspire others and improve others.

There is a considerable gap between the name of the Academy of Sciences and the actual work that can be done now.At least in his opinion, those students are just getting a glimpse of the way, and most of them stay on theoretical study and understanding.

And a new communication system will enable the students to use their talents to make a breakthrough in the model he pointed out and a breakthrough in the way of thinking.

As for why the chamber of commerce should know, it can be called sponsorship and investment.The establishment of communication towers needs money, and the Chamber of Commerce also needs fast communication to grasp business opportunities.

Based on the principle that whoever invests benefits, the Chinese Chamber of Commerce has taken the lead in logistics, warehousing and transportation in the north. I believe other chambers of commerce will also see the huge potential in it.

To put it bluntly, it is "telegraph communication" for civilian use. Whoever gets the dominance has priority and can make his own code.

For example, if the price of silk in a certain place is high, whoever gets the information first, whoever organizes the transportation first, and whoever delivers the goods to the place first.Waiting for others to follow up belatedly, I am afraid that the opportunity to make money is gone.

It is probably the first time in the world to apply science to practice and create benefits!

Zhu Youxiao was quite proud of this, whether it was because of the emperor's face, or because he really realized the value of the new communication system.

Anyway, the three major chambers of commerce are willing to donate generously, jointly fund the research of the Academy of Sciences, and are willing to undertake the construction of signal towers in the northern, southern and Yangtze regions.

Now it may be to please Zhen and the court, but in the future you will taste the sweetness of fast communication, and you will earn tens or hundreds of times more money than you invested.

And, it will be the fastest communication for quite some time.At least, there may not be a telegraph in 100 years.

As the emperor, Zhu Youxiao focused on the entire Ming Dynasty, and even the entire world.

It is impossible for him to devote his limited life to infinite scientific research, although he thinks that after five, six, seven or eighty years, he may be able to produce a wired telegraph.

With higher technology, it will not make the Ming Dynasty, which is full of disadvantages, cheer up the country.This point has already been answered by history, and Zhu Youxiao is also very sure.

However, the development of science and technology can enable Daming to stand on top of the world and compete for more resources in this world of the jungle.

As for promoting advantages and eliminating disadvantages, that is Zhu Youxiao's task. He is not afraid of infamy, not afraid of stigma, and he is going on unswervingly.

Zhu Youxiao's harshness and ruthlessness towards officials, gentry, and students can also be ranked first in history.

Although not all of them, but in the middle and late stages of Ming Dynasty, there were too many bastards in these three groups.When it hits, it will inevitably give people a feeling of excessive punishment.

Of course, Zhu Youxiao doesn't care too much now, he still feels that he is very merciful!

Look at the nobles in the capital, how many of them share weal and woe with the country; think about what they did when the country fell, it is not too much to kill them all.

Fortunately for you, I haven't been short of money for Chongzhen's share, so I will let you continue to enjoy the glory and wealth.But this is only temporary, I will keep an eye on you, sooner or later I will catch your sore feet and clean them up one by one.

Zhu Youxiao felt ruthless in his heart, and threw the list of honorable persons who subscribed to the "Pingliao debt" on the table.Compared with their net worth, 8 taels of silver is unusual, and the largest number of subscribers is only 5000 taels.

This was discussed in advance, five thousand for the Duke level, three thousand for the Marquis, and two thousand for the Earl.

Zhu Youxiao sneered and ridiculed.

The meaning of coping is so obvious, I really don't know whether they are afraid of getting too much money, or think that this is enough.

It is true that the successive victories in the Ping-Liao war were not critical times, nor was the imperial court as poor as Chongzhen's and asked for donations, and the issuance of "Ping-Liao debts" was not aimed at anyone.

Zhu Youxiao shook his head, thinking it's not worth getting angry with these bastards.With the wealth of the "eight great locust merchants", how much "Pingliao debt" can be issued is not too important.

As for the subscription share of the four major chambers of commerce, Zhu Youxiao did not ask for too much, 50 each, and 100 million from the Changjiang Chamber of Commerce.

The 200 million yuan was invested in Liaodong, including the production and transportation of weapons and ammunition, the army's rations, and the supply of various materials, which can be regarded as earmarked funds.

However, the small-amount bonds issued to the middle and lower classes of society are not very ideal from the current point of view.

Maybe it's because the common people have a process of understanding new things, maybe they don't have money at hand, or maybe the court's credit is not enough.In this regard, Zhu Youxiao no longer entangled, let nature take its course.

But there is another group that Zhu Youxiao is not going to let go, and that is the suzerain vassal.According to the title and salary, Zhu Youxiao made a subscription list and share, and sent people to sell it by decree.

When it comes to the suzerains and vassals of the Ming Dynasty, there is the ridicule of "the world raises Zhu".The consciousness is that there are too many suzerains and vassals, and all the country's finances are spent on them.

After Zhu Youxiao checked the information, he realized that there were indeed many suzerains and vassals in the Ming Dynasty, but it was not that there were the most vassals, but that there were too many other clans such as county kings and town generals.

The Ming Dynasty divided the clan into eight levels, the highest being the prince, and now there are only 27 or eight.

And the eldest son of each clan can inherit the title, and the second son will have to cut one rank of title.But when it comes to Lieutenant Fengguo, the lowest level, all sons can inherit the title of Lieutenant Fengguo.

That is to say, as long as it is the clan of the Ming Dynasty, at least there is the title of Lieutenant of Fengguo.

It is these [-] to [-] clan populations that are the real burden on the country's finances. There are too many people in Lao Zhu's family.
