Chapter 213 Raise scientific research funds and raise Zhu for the whole people

This month's updates can only be less. We will prepare for the November additional exam in just one month, so we have to study hard! I'm sorry, please understand more from friends.

………………………. Dividing lines…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

For Zhu Youxiao, it is obviously too complicated to put out more than 200 configurations. Not only are there easy to make mistakes in relay transmission, but it also has high requirements for the staff on the communication tower.

If it is alphabetic, only twenty-six information expression methods are needed; if it is a Chinese code from later generations, one Chinese character can be expressed with four numbers; if it is binary code, only two 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 numerical codes can be more accepted by ancient people.

For example, in later Chinese codes, "I" code is "2053", "Love" code is "1947", "You" code is "0132", etc.

If confidentiality is taken into account, the staff of the signal tower are only responsible for relaying signals, while only the staff at both ends have the "Chinese Character Encoding Table" to send and translate.

Even the army can use another type of code to distinguish it from the civilians and keep it more confidential.

As for how to use the method to represent ten numbers, it is simple, and it is easier to operate than swaying more than a hundred configurations with wooden poles and cantilevers.

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

Zhu Youxiao believes that it is OK to be able to inspire others to improve others' thinking width and breadth.

The name of the Academy of Sciences is quite different from the work that is actually capable of now. At least in his opinion, those students only have a glimpse of the way, and most of them are still focused on theoretical study and understanding.

A new communication system will enable students to use their talents and make breakthroughs in their guidance mode and thinking style.

As for why the Chamber of Commerce should know, it can be called attracting sponsorship and investment. The establishment of a communication tower requires money, and the Chamber of Commerce also needs quick communication to grasp business opportunities.

Based on the principle that whoever invests will benefit, the Chinese Chamber of Commerce has already taken the lead in logistics, warehousing and transportation in the north. I believe other Chambers of Commerce will also see the huge potential here.

To put it bluntly, it is civilian "telecommunication". Whoever gets the dominance will have priority and can make your own code.

For example, if the price of silk in a certain place is high, whoever gets the information first, who organizes transportation first, whoever carries the goods to the place first. When others follow up after realizing it, I am afraid that the opportunity to make money will be gone.

Using science in practice and creating benefits is probably the first time in the world!

Zhu Youxiao was quite proud of this, whether it was based on the emperor's face or realizing the value of the new communication system.

Anyway, the three major chambers of commerce are willing to generously contribute to the research of the Academy of Sciences, and are willing to undertake the construction of signal towers in the north, south of the Yangtze River and the Yangtze River areas.

Now it may be to please me and the court, but in the future you will taste the sweetness of fast communication and make dozens or hundreds of times more money than you invest.

Moreover, this will be the fastest communication in a considerable period of time. At least, there may not be telegrams in a hundred years.

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

He could not devote his limited life to infinite scientific research, although he felt that it might be possible to create a wired telegram for fifty, sixty, seventy or eighty years.

With higher technology, the Ming Dynasty, which had accumulated a lot of malpractice, would not boost the national momentum. History has answered this point, and Zhu Youxiao is also very sure.

However, the development of science and technology can enable the Ming Dynasty to stand on the top of the world and compete for more resources in this world where the strong prey on the weak.

As for promoting profits and eliminating disadvantages, it was Zhu Youxiao's task. He was not afraid of infamy or stigma, and he continued unswervingly.

Zhu Youxiao's ruthlessness and ruthlessness towards officials, gentry, and students was also able to rank first in history.

Although not all, in the middle and late stages of the Ming Dynasty, there were too many bastards in these three groups. When it hit, it was inevitable that people would feel like they were abused.

Of course, Zhu Youxiao no longer cared about it now, and he still felt that he was very kind and ruthless!

Look at the nobles in the capital, there are several who are in harmony with the country; thinking about what they did when the country was destroyed, it would not be too much to kill them.

You are lucky. I haven't been short of money yet. I will let you continue to enjoy wealth and prosperity. But this is only temporary. I can stare at you. Sooner or later, I can catch your painful feet and clean up one by one.

Zhu Youxiao was ruthless in his heart and threw the list of nobles who subscribed to "Pingliao Debt" on the table. Compared with their net worth, 10,800 taels of silver are ordinary, and the most subscribers are only 5,000 taels.

This was discussed in advance. There were five thousand at the level of Duke, three thousand marquis, and two thousand Counts.

Zhu Youxiao was both sneering and ridiculing.

The meaning of dealing with it is so obvious. I really don’t know if they are afraid of showing off their wealth if they take too much, or if they think this is already very interesting.

Indeed, the battles in Ping Liao were won step by step, and it was not a critical time. The court was not as poor as Chongzhen, so he asked for donations. The issuance of "Ping Liao Debt" was not aimed at anyone.

Zhu Youxiao shook his head, feeling that it was not worth getting angry with these bastards. With the wealth of the "Eight Great Locust Merchants", it is no longer important to how much "Ping Liao Debt" can be issued.

As for the subscription share of the four major chambers of commerce, Zhu Youxiao did not want too much, each one with 500,000 yuan and the Yangtze River Chamber of commerce with one million yuan.

All these two million were invested in Liaodong, including the production, manufacturing and transportation of weapons and ammunition, the military's salary, and the supply of various materials, which can be regarded as special funds.

Small bonds sold to the middle and lower levels of society are not very ideal at present.

Perhaps it was because the people had a process of understanding new things, maybe it was because they had no money at hand, or maybe the court's credit was not enough. Zhu Youxiao no longer struggled with this and let it go.

But there is another group that Zhu Youxiao was not going to let go, that is, the vassal state. According to titles and salary, Zhu Youxiao formulated a subscription list and share, and sent people to force the sale in the form of an edict.

Speaking of the vassals of the Ming Dynasty, there was a ridicule of "the world raises vermilion". The consciousness is that there are too many vassals, and the country's finances are all used on them.

After checking the information, Zhu Youxiao found out that there were indeed many vassals in the Ming Dynasty, but there were not the most vassal kings, but there were too many royal families such as other princes and generals in the state.

The Ming Dynasty divided the royal family into eight levels, and the highest position was the prince, and only twenty-seven or eight remained.

The eldest son of each royal family can inherit the title, while the second son will be given a first-level title. But when he reached the lowest level of Fengguo Lieutenant, all sons can inherit the title of Fengguo Lieutenant.

In other words, as long as it is a royal family in the Ming Dynasty, there is at least a title of lieutenant of the State.

It is these royal family populations of up to 150,000 or 60,000, which are the real burden of the national finances. There are too many people in the Zhu family.
