Chapter 246
"Radio? How does this transmit information?" Li Shimin looked at the strange thing in front of him.
He couldn't understand how this thing could transmit information.
"Young Master, is it the same as the mobile phone you taught me before, that you can contact and talk to the other party from a long distance?" Princess Yuzhang asked curiously.
"Almost the same, this can also transmit information from a long distance, but it is not as convenient as a mobile phone, and it is different from a mobile phone."
"Hand-held chicken? What kind of chicken is this?" Li Shimin became more and more confused the more he listened.
Princess Yuzhang took out the mobile phone that Xiao Ran bought, "Grandpa, this is it, you can contact people far away and hear the other party's voice..."
Princess Yuzhang tried to explain in words that Li Shimin could understand.
Li Shimin took the phone, "So magical?"
This is something that people in the Tang Dynasty can't imagine, it's amazing!
"How far can it be?" Li Shimin looked at Xiao Ran.
"Yes, as long as it is on this land, it is possible... in theory!" Xiao Ran added.
"In theory?" Empress Changsun found the key point of the problem.
"Because mobile phones require other conditions, such as whether there is a signal or not. If there is no signal, it cannot be used. Mobile phones can communicate instantly, but I didn't buy a mobile phone for you, my uncle."
"It's not that I can't bear to spend it because it's expensive, but it can't be used in the Tang Dynasty. It can only be used here."
Empress Changsun and Li Shimin didn't ask about the signal, but they almost understood what Xiao Ran meant.
The Tang Dynasty doesn't have this condition!
"It seems that this mobile phone is much smaller and more convenient, and this radio is bigger and not as beautiful as the mobile phone." Li Shimin compared them.
"These are the products of two eras, and there is a big difference. There is no way to compare. The radio also has its advantages. Prepare a few more radios. If there are any problems in the border towns of the Tang Dynasty, they can be reported to Chang'an City as soon as possible."
Li Shimin's eyes were different, "How long will it take to get there?"
"It takes time to send telegrams, receive telegrams and translate them. It's about two quarters of an hour!"
"Okay..." Li Shimin picked up the radio. Li Shimin knew the benefits of this communication method better than Xiao Ran.
Not only is it efficient, but it also saves a lot of costs.
Before, we needed post stations, postmen, and a large number of horses running non-stop. Both people and horses were overloaded.
With the emergence of radio stations, this is no longer a problem.
The most important thing is the time cost. It takes several days to send information back from the border, and it also takes several days for the court to issue orders.
This can easily lead to mistakes.
"This uses batteries, which don't consume much power."
"No, if there is no power, wouldn't it be very troublesome to send it to Chang'an City to replenish the power?" Li Shimin asked.
"No, no, no, it's not necessary. Uncle, have you forgotten the solar panel of the Lizheng Hall? You can take that away too. Except for the broken one, there is no way, the other is not a problem." Xiao Ran knocked on the radio lightly, "I can't repair this one if it's broken, so I can only buy a new one."
"Be gentle, don't knock it!" Li Shimin treasured it.
"This is not as fragile as you think, uncle, it's very solid."
"Is it difficult to learn?" Li Shimin continued to ask.
"It's okay!" Xiao Ran hadn't learned it either, but had seen it on TV.
"Grandpa, I've learned it. Let's teach others!" Li Lizhi can learn from Xiao Ran.
"That's great!" Li Shimin thought this arrangement was a good one.
As for the quantity and price, Li Shimin didn't ask. He had learned his lesson.
Afraid that Xiao Ran would ask for too much, he would find a chance to talk to Li Lizhi and let Li Lizhi and Xiao Ran talk.
Li Shimin didn't mind spending money, but he didn't want to be blackmailed by Xiao Ran.
"So how much does my uncle need?"
Xiao Ran was a little uncomfortable with Li Shimin not asking about the price or quantity.
"Don't worry about it. Let's talk about it later when Li Zhi learns." Li Shimin picked up the wine glass, "Come and drink! I won't go home until I'm drunk today!"
Li Shimin couldn't say these things to Xiao Ran anymore.
Xiao Ran picked up the wine glass and felt that Li Shimin was different.
It stands to reason that if Li Shimin was satisfied with the radio station, he would definitely ask about the price and the quantity he needed.
Something's wrong!
Nine points must be ten points wrong!
After eating, several people returned to the sofa, and Qinglan Yushu prepared a fruit plate.
Make tea for Empress Changsun and Li Shimin.
Li Shimin picked up the teacup, "This Longjing is good!"
Seeing that there is something delicious, the two little princesses ran back.
"Red~" The little princess's goal is cherry tomatoes.
"Sizi, Grandpa hugs me!" Li Shimin misses this little daughter.
The little princess is the number one contributor to the connection with Xiao Ran.
The little princess stretched out her little hand and pushed Li Shimin, "Grandpa stinks~"
"Where does it stink?”
The little princess pointed at the wine glass, "This stinks~"
The little princess didn't like Li Shimin after drinking.
"Okay, okay!" Li Shimin also understood that the little princess rejected the smell of alcohol.
"Hold me, little sang!" The little princess opened her hands.
This little Li Shimin was unhappy, "Xiao Ran also drank, let Li Zhi hold me!"
"Hehe~ I want you to hold me~"
"Hehe~"
Xiao Ran picked up the little princess. The little girl was a little hypocritical, but Xiao Ran liked it.
Princess Chengyang picked up the cherry tomatoes, "Mother, this is delicious!"
"Okay!"
"Uncle, do you want to prepare durian!" Xiao Ran deliberately angered Li Shimin.
Xiao Ran didn't like it either. This wave hurt the enemy by a thousand and hurt himself by eight hundred.
"Stop it, kid. You can eat later! "Li Shimin was also convinced.
"Hehe~ Happy Seventh Day of the Year of the Ox~" The little princess waved her hands.
"Okay, okay, it's delicious, but can you not eat it now?" Li Shimin said with a smile.
"Yeah~"
The little princess picked up the cherry tomatoes and fed them to Xiao Ran, which made Li Shimin angry.
But he couldn't say anything yet.
There was no way, the little princess was just happy, she just liked it!
"Little Nangjun wants to play chess~"
"Okay! Play!" Xiao Ran looked at Qinglan, "Madam Qinglan, bring it over to Mingda to play."
"It's the little prince!"
Qinglan Yushu and others are also very familiar with the villa, and they know where everything is placed.
"Sizi can also play chess?" Li Shimin frowned, "What kind of chess is chess? Why haven't I heard of it! ”
“It’s fun~”
“Grandpa, it’s different from Go, it’s a very special way to play, it’s quite interesting, Sizi and my second sister can play it.” Li Lizhi explained.
“Is that so!” Li Shimin put down his teacup, “Xiao Ran, do you know about the Weishui Alliance?”
Li Shimin took the initiative to find a topic to talk about, while Empress Changsun and Princess Yuzhang were chatting quietly beside him.
“Of course I know about the Weishui Alliance, it’s a big event for the Tang Dynasty.”
“You think differently from others. If you were in this situation, what would you do?”
“Uncle, I’m just an ordinary person, I haven’t thought about this.”
“What if you were in my position?”
Xiao Ran thought for a while, “Either fight to the death, or move the capital and run away, there are only these two options!”
