Chapter 666

Li Shimin said that he wanted to build a straight road from here to Persia. Wei Hao was also worried when he heard it. This straight road is not easy to build. It has to go through a plateau. There is no such technology now. If it is built, it will be useful, but it actually costs money Huge manpower and material resources may have to be repaired year after year, which is not worth the loss.

Besides, if you really cultivate a straight path, it may not be of much use at that time.

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he sat there and saw that Wei Hao didn't speak, he felt a little strange, and immediately asked: "Shen Yong, why don't you speak? Why, do you have a different opinion?"

"Well, it's a little bit, but to be straightforward, I suggest that it should be widened now, and it should be [-] zhang Wei Hao!" Wei Hao immediately said to Li Shimin.

"A battle? It's so wide, it costs a lot of money!" Li Shimin said, looking at Wei Hao in surprise when he heard it.

"Money is one aspect. If you don't repair it now, you have to make it wider. In the future, the roads will need to be wider!" Wei Hao said to Li Shimin. Li Shimin felt very strange when he heard it. He didn't know Wei Hao Why do you say that.

"Tell me your reason!" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao and said.

"Okay, I'm going to make a vehicle to come out. It's very wide. If the road is not good, then there is no way to move forward. Maybe three to five years, maybe seven or eight years. It will take a lot of time, but it will happen sooner or later!" Wei Hao Looking at Li Shimin said.

"Is that so, can it work for you?" Li Shimin heard it, sat there thinking about it, and asked Wei Hao.

"Of course it can be done! It's a matter of time. The main thing is that there is no one, just like I told you!" Wei Hao nodded affirmatively. Li Shimin also thought about it carefully when he heard what he said.

"Okay, then cultivate slowly. If you can't complete it in one year, then you can practice for a few more years, and it will be fine!" Li Shimin said to Wei Hao when he heard it.

"Okay. But I don't care about the Persian affairs. I don't have that much time!" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin and said.

"Okay. Don't worry about it. You can fix the communication first. If the communication is done, it will be a big deal for me, Datang!" Li Shimin nodded, agreeing to Wei Hao's request Well, Wei Hao didn't want to care about those things.

"Okay, I'll start tomorrow!" Wei Hao nodded,
Wei Hao returned home at night and called King Ji. Now King Ji lives in Wei Hao’s mansion. Wei Hao began to take him to do experiments. Wei Hao taught him some things before, but not much, especially about electricity. and electromagnetism, very little, but he also knows some,
Three days later, Wei Hao brought back some small glass covers from the glass workshop. This is the cover of the light bulb. Wei Hao then began to teach Ji Wang to wind the coil and made a magnet.

Then, Wei Hao took King Ji to the Qujiang River, and began to use the water from the river to build a power station. Wei Hao was outside for half a month, and the current King Ji admired Wei Hao even more. Yes, because Wei Hao actually turned on those light bulbs,
That is to say, now in Qujiang, Wei Hao no longer needs to light candles, but use electric lights and those switches, which made King Ji quite excited.
For the next month or so, Wei Hao took Wei Hao to continue to do experiments, trying to get the telegraph out. There are many things in it that Wei Hao needed to develop from the beginning. Fortunately, the craftsmen at the Ministry of Industry now It is at his own disposal, only craftsmen can do it, Wei Hao will let the craftsmen do it, and when it is done, they will send it here.

It's been almost a month, Wei Hao has never been out at all, and he is doing those things when he is with King Ji.And Li Shimin also knows that Wei Hao has been in Qujiang for a month, and there is no news at all. Li Shimin suspects that Wei Hao went fishing there.
On this day, after Li Shimin explained the matter, he was about to go to Qujiang, and he also brought a lot of fishing rods. When he arrived at Qujiang, it was already afternoon. After Li Shimin settled down, he went straight to Wei Hao's yard and arrived at the Over there, it was found that Wei Hao's personal guards were very tightly guarded, and Wei Hao's personal guards were everywhere.

"What is this kid doing, so guarded so tightly?" Li Shimin also murmured in his heart. He didn't know why Wei Hao was hiding in there, so he went in directly. When he got inside, he didn't find Wei Hao in the living room. However, Wei Hao's relatives Wei also went to inform Wei Hao.

After Wei Hao learned about it, he brought King Ji to the living room.

"What are you doing, you're not trim?" Li Shimin saw that Wei Hao's beard was stubble, and Ji Wang's hair was full of oil, so he looked at them both in surprise.

"Busy, Father, do you have anything to do? We're going to get busy!" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin and asked.

"I have something to do. I just came to see you. What are you doing now?" Li Shimin immediately asked Wei Hao.

"Isn't it necessary to solve the communication problem? Right now we are still experimenting. It is estimated that it will take a lot of time, and many things need to be done right from the beginning, and, eh, it's difficult, just the two of us! "Wei Hao sighed as he spoke.
At this moment, King Ji also sighed and said: "Master, in fact, you are alone, I don't understand, just hit me!"

"It's good to be able to fight. If it's someone else, I won't understand it at all. It's okay, father, I have nothing to do here. If you are idle, you can go fishing. I am really busy now!" Wei Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin and said.

"Hey, fine, don't bother you, go get busy, leave the logistics to me!" Li Shimin said immediately, feeling sorry for these two people, a duke and a prince, they seem to be beggars, what? I didn't care about it, I was just doing things, and soon, in the evening, the imperial chef had already prepared the meals, but Wei Hao and King Ji didn't come out.

"Your Majesty, do you want to turn on the light?" At this time, Wei Dashan came in and asked.

"Turn on the light, what is it? I want to turn on the light!" Li Shimin nodded. It was already getting dark, and it was indeed time to turn on the light.

"Your Majesty, turn on the light!" After Wei Dashan finished speaking, he immediately turned on the switch, and the whole living room was extremely bright.

"Hey, hey. What's going on, what's going on? Why is it so bright?" Li Shimin was a little startled, and he stood up, looking at the bright bulb and asked.

"Your Majesty, this was made by our master and His Royal Highness Ji Wang. It is called an electric light. It is installed in the whole yard. Now it is the only place in the entire Tang Dynasty!" Wei Dashan said to Li Shimin very happily.

"What, Shenyong and the others made it, really?" Li Shimin was surprised when he heard it, staring at Wei Dashan and asked.

"Really!" Wei Dashan nodded, then went to the corridor next to him, turned on the light, the corridor was also lit up, and then Li Shimin found that other places also started to light up,
Sitting there at the moment, Li Shimin was very happy, this one was too bright, much brighter than a candle, and now he was reading with a book, all the words could be read clearly.

"By the way, when will Shen Yong come out for dinner?" Li Shimin looked at the food on the table and asked Wei Dashan.

"Your Majesty, I don't know about this. They don't have a fixed time for eating, but there won't be much difference. I think it will be fine in half an hour!" It will be too late.

"They just work in it every day?" Li Shimin continued to ask.

"No, I've been here for more than a month, and I don't come out every day. I'm not afraid of His Majesty's jokes. The two of them probably haven't taken a bath for seven or eight days. I'm so busy that I forgot. After they finished eating, they would still go in and do something work, and then just sleep in it, I guess I was too sleepy, so I went to bed!" Wei Dashan continued to say to Li Shimin.

"Okay. Take me in!" Li Shimin said uneasy when he heard this.

"Don't dare, the master said, if we go in, break our legs and say there is danger inside, it seems that the electricity is also dangerous, but as long as you don't touch it, you will be fine!" Wei Dashan immediately said to Li Shimin,
Li Shimin hesitated for a moment when he heard it, this is not acceptable, and there is no need to do things like this.But there is no way, since Wei Hao said he can't go in, he can't go in, and he can only wait here,
After waiting for almost an hour, the meals were all kept warm.

"It's almost there. Try a few more times tonight. There are no problems with the data. The rest is assembly and debugging. This may take a lot of time." When Wei Hao came out, he was still discussing with Ji Wang .

"Well, master, when the time comes, you will need to train people to use them!" Ji Wang said immediately.

"Of course you need to train them. If you don't train them how to send telegrams, you will do it when the time comes, and you will do it too. Then you will assess them!" Wei Hao continued after he came out.

"Why did you come out to eat?" Li Shimin watched them coming, and immediately stood up and asked.

"Ah, I have seen Father!" The two said immediately after hearing this.

"Well, hurry up and come over to eat, I've already finished eating, after you finish eating, go take a shower immediately, what do you look like now?" Li Shimin said to the two of them,

The two of them heard it, and looked down at themselves, then at each other, then shook their heads and said, "No time, let's talk!"

And so they sat down and began to gobble it up.

"Master, when the time comes, our telegraph will need electricity, and there will be no electricity in other places, so what should we do?" "Then generate electricity, aren't we generating electricity now?" Wei Hao said.

"But in Tubo, rivers may not be found everywhere, right? And even if rivers can be found, the army will fight, how to solve this problem?" King Ji continued to ask.

"Well, let's talk about it when the time comes. Let's talk about solving the problems one by one. I don't have time to think about those now. Let's talk about it first!" Wei Hao sat there, thought for a while, and said to King Ji, he didn't pay attention to Li Shimin at all, and neither did they. No time to talk to Li Shimin!
"Okay!" Ji Wang nodded, continued to eat quickly, wiped his mouth after eating, and left again. Li Shimin sat there, wanting to say a few words to them, but there was no chance to speak!
However, Li Shimin was also very moved. One was his son-in-law and the other was his son. Now in order to solve the communication problem, it can be said that he forgot to sleep and eat. Li Shimin felt proud of having such a junior.

"Okay. Shall I go back to the palace? Tomorrow morning, inform the imperial chef to prepare delicious food, and it will be delivered early in the morning. I don't know when they will be able to wake up to eat, so prepare it early!" Li Shimin said to Wang De.

"It's the emperor, but, your majesty, you should go back later, the lights here are good, and it's good for you to read memorials and books here!" Wang De thought about it and said to Li Shimin.

"Hey, don't tell me, when will we be able to use this in our palace, but it must wait for Shen Yong to finish this matter!" Li Shimin also said with emotion when he heard it, now he I also like electric lights. Li Shimin stayed here until very late before returning to the palace.
After waking up the next morning, he came here and found that Wei Hao and the others hadn't woken up yet. Li Shimin was waiting for them in the living room. After they had finished their breakfast, he went fishing, and he would come back in time to wait for them to eat , I went fishing in the afternoon, and I still read those memorials here at night, anyway, there are electric lights here,
In this way, almost half a month later, King Ji took a telegraph machine to Chang'an, and at the same time brought a generator there, and it will be ready to use when it is connected, and Wei Hao is also sitting in front of the radio station. Waiting, waiting for news from Li Shen.

"Okay?" Li Shimin saw Li Shen leaving with his things, so he went outside Wei Hao's laboratory, knocked on the door and shouted.

"Ah, father, not yet, it's still in the experiment!" Wei Hao shouted immediately.

"Can I come in?" Li Shimin continued to ask.

"Okay!" Wei Hao nodded, thinking that Li Shen was not so fast, so he went out and brought Li Shimin in. At this moment, Li Shimin realized,

Li Shimin has basically never seen the things here, but he knows that these things are all made by Wei Hao. Whether it is useful or not, just making those things will take a lot of work.

"Father, Eunuch Wang, don't get close to those wired places, and don't touch things. If there is electricity, it's dangerous!" Wei Hao explained to Li Shimin.

"Don't worry, I won't move, I will wait here for your news!" Li Shimin stood there and said to Wei Hao.

"Now Ji Wang is going to the palace with the telegraph, and will let you communicate with the queen mother and Wei Guifei!" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin and reminded.

"Just communicate like this?" Li Shimin asked Wei Hao, pointing to those machines and looking at Wei Hao in surprise.
