Big businessmen like Wang Dabao who had struggled for many years were all shrewd guys. It was absolutely impossible for them to suffer a loss. They easily earned back the money for the purchase of the machines through some small means. Moreover, they also let themselves be in the limelight. The sense of accomplishment they obtained in their hearts was much more than the economic benefits they obtained.
After all, the source of human inner happiness was the sense of achievement of being superior to others. Human happiness came from comparing with others. At the same time, the source of human pain was also from comparing with others. If one could compare with others, one would feel happy. It could also be called a sense of accomplishment. If one could not compare with others, one would be quite unhappy. One would even be jealous and hate others.
Of course, this comparison was mainly for the people around them. It was compared with the people around them who could be in contact with them. If it was people who could not be contacted at all, it was naturally difficult to compare. There would be no happiness or pain.
Therefore, it was really difficult to be a person. If one was more powerful than others, one would be envied by others. If one could not compare with others, it was easy to make oneself feel unhappy or be looked down upon. It was really difficult.
Wang Dabao was naturally very proud at the moment. Not only did he make a lot of money at once, but he also experienced the feeling of being superior and felt the envious eyes of the people around him.
The rest of the businessmen who obtained the phones also gained a lot. As for the aristocrats, needless to say, they all experienced the feeling of being superior and received the envious eyes of others.
A few days later, three thousand machines were successfully completed. Ang Lee asked his subordinates to send the machines to the Imperial City and several Palace Cities and let them install them properly. Ang Lee believed that as long as these people worked seriously, they could complete the task properly.
After the machines in the Imperial City and the Imperial Palace were satisfied, the next machines produced were naturally sold to the big businessmen and aristocrats in the Capital. The number of machines sold previously was too small. Many aristocrats who did not buy the machines were very disappointed and envious. Now that the production was high, it could be put into the market in large quantities soon. At that time, more people could naturally get this very important machine.
The capital's network would also be completed within a month. At that time, these machines would truly be of great use. It would be extremely convenient for the various personnel in the capital to communicate with one another, and the efficiency of administration would be greatly improved. The Great Tang Empire would enter a brand new page.
This time, the success of the Ten Thousand Miles Sound Transmission project was really sensational. It started from the capital and then quickly spread along several railway lines. Just a few days later, the distant border areas received the news. And after a few more days, many merchants living in the border areas actually came to the capital after hearing the news. Their purpose of coming to the capital was very clear, that was to see what the Ten Thousand Miles Sound Transmission machine looked like with their own eyes. They even had the intention to buy one back. Just for a novel machine, they actually came from far away places. This could also be seen from the side that the success of the Ten Thousand Miles Sound Transmission had a sensational effect.
It was not only the border areas of the Tang Empire, but many envoys of the surrounding countries who heard the good news immediately sent people to deliver the good news back. After hearing the good news, many kings put down the things in their hands and personally led a large group of people to Chang 'an. Some kings who could not leave sent their own princes to represent themselves fully.
Since these people came to Chang 'an, they definitely did not just come to take a look. They definitely wanted to bring some telephones back. They even proposed to let the Tang Empire connect the lines to their countries so that it would be easier to communicate with each other.
When the officials of the Imperial Court of the Tang Empire learned that these people were coming to the Capital, they immediately began to study how to deal with it. After all, the people who were coming were at least the princes of various countries. Their status and status were relatively high. All kinds of reception work must be done carefully. It would not be good if they were impolite. Therefore, Honglu Temple and other government offices were very busy and were all nervously preparing.
After all, these kings or princes would soon arrive in the Capital. If it was before, it would take at least a few months to get the news, and it would take more than half a year to get to Chang 'an. But it was different now. The railways of the Tang Empire were connected in many directions. In this way, the kings of these neighboring countries could quickly get the news of Chang' an. If they wanted to visit Chang 'an, it would not take much time. In this way, there was not much time left for Honglu Temple and other government offices, so they were naturally very busy.
After being busy for many days, Ang Lee finally got the production of the telephones on the right track. At the same time, the work of setting up the network was also in progress. Even the relevant government offices had begun to study how to connect the lines to Luoyang and other cities, and carefully calculate the cost.
After being exhausted for many days, Ang Lee needed to take a rest. Otherwise, he would be too tired. There were many ways to rest. For example, going for a walk in the suburbs was a very good way to rest.
At this moment, Ang Lee went to the School of Telepathy. The School of Telepathy was named because of the Telepathy Plan. Therefore, when the Telepathy Plan achieved great success, it was natural to go to the School of Telepathy to have a look. He wanted to see whether the children in the school had made progress recently. He also wanted to see how the Tang Er was doing in the school and whether they could adapt to the environment in the school.
When Ang Lee arrived at the School of Telepathy, Li Chuandao immediately went out to greet him. He first bowed respectfully, then congratulated Ang Lee on the success of the Telepathy Plan. Finally, he asked some questions about the Telepathy Plan. Obviously, this old guy was also very interested in the Telepathy Machine and wanted to know more about it.
Ang Lee was too lazy to explain. He directly took six telephones and prepared to install a few inside the School of Telepathy. In this way, Li Chuandao could sit in his office and directly contact the people in the school. At the same time, all the teachers and students in the school could experience it. This was a little benefit for all the teachers and students in the School of Telepathy!
"Six telephones. Are these all for our school?"
Li Chuandao was flattered. He was also very clear about the price on the market. Many rich businessmen couldn't buy one, but he could get six at once. Moreover, he could also let the school experience it. This was a great benefit.
"That's right. These are all for you. Hurry up and help me install them. When they're done, you'll be able to experience it. Don't forget to let the children experience it as well. It's very beneficial for their learning."
Ang Lee said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, yes, of course."
Li Chuandao hurriedly responded.
"How is the Tang Er recently? Did he cause any trouble for the school?"
Ang Lee asked.
"This …"
Li Chuandao hesitated, as if there was something he couldn't say.
"What's wrong? Is there something you can't say? Did the Tang Er cause trouble? "
Ang Lee asked.
Li Chuandao pondered for a moment and said, "Your son is far more intelligent than ordinary people. He learns any knowledge very quickly as if he has already learned it. Therefore, it is inevitable that he can't help but show off in class. This is nothing. However, since your son came here, he often gave some delicious pastries to the children here and taught them to be obedient. But these children are used to these delicious pastries and don't care so much about the braised pork for lunch. They even dare to make mistakes and talk back to the teachers. Even if they are punished by not giving them lunch, they don't care. This makes the teachers don't know how to manage them."
After that, he looked worried. Although this was a small matter and only a few people dared to make mistakes, it was still a headache.
Hearing this, Ang Lee nodded and said, "So that's how it is! This is easy. I will tell the Tang Er not to bring snacks to the school. In addition, if there are children who are disobedient, just drive them away. Kill one as an example to the others. Let's see who dares to make trouble. "
After that, he went directly to find the Tang Er.
As soon as he walked near the classroom, Ang Lee saw the Tang Er. Good lord, this kid was surrounded by more than a dozen children, boys and girls. They all looked at the Tang Er with respectful eyes, as if they were looking at their leader.
Seeing this scene, Ang Lee felt funny and quite gratified at the same time. His son was really a talent. At first glance, he knew that he had a leadership temperament. At such a young age, he had already subdued the children around him. When he grew up, he would be amazing! His future would definitely be limitless.
The eyes of the little girl were full of worship and infatuation when she looked at the Tang Er, as if she was a little fan of the Tang Er. The more she looked at him, the more she felt that he was interesting.
"This kid is quite powerful. He really has my genes. Hahaha!"
Ang Lee was naturally very happy to see the Tang Er like this. However, mistakes could not be forgiven. He had to be educated well. He could not let the Tang Er be lawless. That would hurt him.
"Tang Er, stinky boy, come here."
Ang Lee said loudly.
"Father."
Tang Er ran over happily and hugged Ang Lee's thigh with a smile.
"Stinky boy, what were you doing just now? Were you bragging? "
Ang Lee asked.
Tang Er quickly waved his hand and said, "No, I wasn't. I was telling them that father is a very powerful person. Very, very powerful! "
"Oh, Tang Er is telling the truth. Do they believe it?"
Ang Lee asked happily.
Tang Er said proudly, "Of course they believe it. If they don't believe it, then I won't give them fruits to eat. Humph!"
After saying that, he looked very proud.
Good heavens, Tang 'er was using threats and promises! In this way, what he could get might not be the truth.
Ang Lee said with dissatisfaction, "Tang Er, what you did was wrong. Father is very powerful. This doesn't need others to admit, understand? You used fruits to force them to say that father is powerful. In this way, what they hear may not be the truth. Is it really interesting to listen to lies all the time? "
"Father, it's not like that. They didn't believe that father is a very powerful person before, so I gave them fruits. These fruits are all good pastries. Ordinary people can't afford them. If my father is not a very powerful person, how can I have so many delicious pastries? A father who can buy so many delicious pastries for me every day is the most powerful father, isn't he? They also said that Tang Er's father is the most powerful. He can buy so many delicious pastries every day, but their father can't. He even never buys them any pastries. "
Tang Er explained with a frown.
After listening to Tang Er's explanation, Ang Lee suddenly felt that what Tang Er said was very reasonable. He was too shallow and misunderstood Tang Er's words. He was too arbitrary. His son was obviously a very smart child, probably smarter than him.
"My good Tang Er, how can you be so smart? I misunderstood. I was wrong. Haha! "
Li An smiled and continued, "But Tang 'er, you're not allowed to bring snacks to school in the future. If you feed these kids until they're full, they won't want to eat lunch. Do you hear me?"
Tang'er seemed to be unwilling. She pouted and said, "Father, I've already told them that my father is very powerful. Every day, he will buy a lot of fruits for me to eat. If I don't bring any fruits, they will think that my father is not powerful anymore. How bad would that be?"
"Hey, boy, you're quite thoughtful!"
Li An was very surprised. He paused and said, "My son, why don't we do it this way? You tell these children that their father doesn't allow them to bring fruits to school. Every time they have a day off, they can bring more fruits and share them with them. Let them take them home to eat. Isn't this the best of both worlds? "
Tang Er thought for a moment and said, "Okay! I'll think about it. "
"What? You still want to think about it?"
Ang Lee frowned.
"Okay! I see. Father, can I bring a little less candy? I'll only give it to one person. Is that okay? "
Tang Er said.
"Only give a few candies to one person? Who is it for?"
Ang Lee couldn't help but be curious.
The corners of Tang'er's mouth curled up into a smile. She seemed a little embarrassed. After pondering for a long time, she suddenly pointed at a little girl not far away and said, "Father, it's this little girl. She's so cute, and she especially likes to eat sweets. When she eats sweets, she especially likes to smile. Her smile is so sweet, hehe!"
Ang Lee suddenly understood. It turned out that Tang Er was doing this for a little girl. Ang Lee looked carefully and found that the little girl was really good-looking. She was indeed very cute and made people feel very comfortable when they saw her. No wonder Tang Er was fascinated by her.
"Tang 'er, have you taken a liking to this little girl and want to take her as your wife?"
Ang Lee joked with a smile.
