Vol 2 Chapter 1150: Finale (1)

The 17th year of Jingming is a year worth remembering.
Gu Jiu's years of investment have finally yielded.
The Polytechnic Institute, which has been unknown before, has become a blockbuster without Ming.
Since the bell was born!
The technical difficulty of ringing the bell was finally overcome.
The Institute of Technology has successfully built ten self-ringing bells.
"The time error will not exceed one minute!"
"Call the time on time!"
"Luxurious style!"
Since the day the bell was born, he has become a luxury object chased by high-ranking officials, aristocrats, aristocratic families, and wealthy businessmen.
The self-ringing bell is half a person tall, with a base, which can be placed directly on the ground.
Without a base, it can be placed on the table.
Since the bell price, from three thousand taels to the highest without cap.
Jinluang Temple, one of the first places to use the self-ringed bell.
Tell the time accurately, remind courtiers that half an hour has passed, one hour, two hours...
The automatic hour hand attracts everyone's attention.
Someone asked silly questions, "Is there really no one hidden behind that moving needle?"
"Of course no one is hidden."
"But how can the needle move by itself? It's still moving in one direction. Why does it take half an hour to move one circle?"
"If you want to know why, go to the Polytechnic Institute."
"Don't go, don't go!"
"It's easy to use. What's the use of knowing so much? Could it be that if you eat eggs, you have to see in advance what the hens that lay eggs look like, and ask why the hens lay eggs?"
"That's the reason!"
"The people at the Polytechnic Institute, I always thought they were a group of lunatics with abnormal brains. I did not expect to create such a magical thing that can calculate the time intuitively and accurately, and will tell the time at the hour."
"The self-ringing bell is really a good thing! There is one in the house, which not only has the noodles, but is no longer afraid of delaying time."
"It's really good for timing."
"Now it seems that the Empress Empress opened the School of Engineering and brought all the weird people together, it is still good. It is indeed extraordinary to be able to make a bell!
"It's more than extraordinary, it's just a fairy object. No, I have to find a relationship and let the Polytechnic Institute deliver it as soon as possible."
It's so arrogant!
As a son of a wealthy family, there is no self-ringing bell in the room, and there is no face in front of friends.
Jinluan Temple, as the best place to place advertisements for self-ringing bells, the effect is effective.
From the day when the bell appeared on the Golden Luang Temple, the Polytechnic Institute received orders and received softness.
There are many poor people and many rich people these days.
In order to chase the trend and save face, high-ranking officials have spent a lot of money, just to be able to buy the self-ringed bell in the shortest time.
The Polytechnic Institute published an announcement in the newspaper.
Since ringing the bell, the Polytechnic Institute ships 20 units a month.
Those who wish to purchase, please line up at Shaofu to pay the deposit.
According to the deposit payment time, whoever pays the deposit first will be ranked first.
The implication is that I want to find a relationship to jump in the queue. Sorry, the Polytechnic does not provide queue jump services for the time being.
Didn’t you see that the orders have been scheduled for two years?
It can only be said that there are so many rich people.
This is only the Gyeonggi area.
When the news spreads back to all parts of Jiangnan, the Polytechnic Institute will receive more orders.
As soon as the announcement came out, the whole city was in an uproar.
The dignitaries are very depressed.
"Only 20 units a month? Can't we build more?"
"What is the announcement that everyone knows that the Polytechnic Institute has made the self-ringing bell. If you want to add a self-ringing bell in the future, you have to pay the deposit several years in advance and queue up. Isn't this a trouble for everyone?"
"As soon as the announcement came out, Jiangnan should move. It is estimated that the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce can place an order for 100 units in one go."
"I'm afraid there will be more than that! The Jiangnan rich businessmen have become popular for comparison, and they are all the owners of good money. I estimate that the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce can place 200 orders in one go."
As a result, everyone underestimated the financial resources of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce.
Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce made a big deal and placed an order for 500 units in one go.
The Northern Chamber of Commerce followed closely, placing an order for 400 units.
Other chambers of commerce have followed up, with orders for hundreds of units.
The dignitaries of the capital, while secretly stunned, rejoiced again and again.
"Fortunately, we placed the order early, otherwise we don't know how to wait until the year of the monkey."
"Your Majesty still takes good care of everyone. After we place the order, the Polytechnic Institute will issue an announcement, which can be regarded as giving everyone a priority."
"The lowest price is three thousand and one bells, and the price is not capped. This time, the Polytechnic has to make a crazy profit!"
"There are only two hundred and forty units a year, but there are millions of taels in income. It really is a hen who can lay golden eggs."
"It's no wonder that the Queen Mother spends a lot of money on the Polytechnic Institute every year. This reward is indeed generous."
"The empress has a unique vision, foresight, and is willing to spend money."
"The Polytechnic Institute has been established for so many years. In the previous few years, I only saw money burning, but not a penny. The empress is not dissatisfied, and still spends money every year. This vision is indeed extraordinary!"
"In the future, as long as it is a project where the Queen Empress invests money, regardless of whether it is a college or a polytechnic, or digging ditches, we must follow up. If you can't make money temporarily, it doesn't mean you won't make money forever. This self-ringing bell is a gold Mine is enough to dig for hundreds of years. If you miss the gold mine of self-ringing bells, you can't miss the next gold mine."
"Look, the Polytechnic Institute will definitely launch various new things in the future. Maybe in the future there will be small chimes that you can carry with you, and you can see the exact time even when you go out."
"Then dare to love it! The Polytechnic really has the ability to make a self-ringing bell that can be carried with you. I will definitely be the first to place an order."
"I heard people say that the Polytechnic Institute is currently working on a machine that can pull a carriage without a horse."
"Have this stuff?"
"Arabian Nights!"
"Exaggerated!"
"unrealistic!"
"Whimsical!"
"If you don't need a horse-drawn carriage, what kind of pull? Is it possible to use people to pull a carriage?"
"Wait, everyone don't rush to deny it. You just said that the Polytechnic is building a machine. If it succeeds, it can pull a carriage without a horse?"
"I also heard it pleasantly. I have a distant cousin's son who is studying at the Polytechnic Institute. The last time he met, he casually said something, and I heard it pleasantly. Is it true or bragging? How do I know However, before that, I thought he was bragging. Ever since the Polytechnic Institute made the self-tolling bell, I thought, maybe one day, a machine could be built to replace horses to pull carriages."
what?
Everyone looked at each other!
The officials from the northwest had their eyes glowing.
"Can you introduce me to your relative who studies in the polytechnic institute?"
"Do you want to know him? He is just a nerd and a weirdo."
"No, no, you guys, I'm very interested in the machine I just mentioned. I want to know a little bit about it and ask if I can invest in it and take a little share."
Huh?
"The speed at which the Polytechnic Institute burns money, that's a bottomless pit! That is to say, the empress empress has a lot of money and can afford to raise those weirdos."
"Yes! No one can compare to polytechnics in terms of burning money. How much money must be invested in order to take a little share. That is a bottomless pit, brothers think twice."

"Don't be impulsive. It's not easy to save a little family business. How can you invest in the bottomless pit of the Polytechnic."
The officials from the northwest were very firm, "Before, I missed Xinmin County, missed the cement road, missed the shares of Universe Transportation, and missed too many opportunities. Later, when I finally came to the capital, I still missed the ringing bell. Now I don’t want to continue to make mistakes. Anyway, please introduce me to my relatives from the Polytechnic."
"Well! I am not responsible for any consequences."
"Don't worry, I will bear all the consequences myself."
"Instead of investing in the bottomless pit of the Polytechnic Institute, it is better to invest in the medical school. Have you heard about what happened last month? An old man had a big sarcoma on his back, which is said to be the size of a washbasin. All over the world, plus imperialism. Doctor, no one can cure it. This old man went to the medical school later, guess what? He was cured! I heard that the medical school successfully cut off the sarcoma on the old man’s back and saved the old man’s life. In a few days, the old man Can be discharged home."
"Really?"
"The old man is still in the medical school. If you don't believe me, ask yourself."
"According to this trend, the future of medical school is terrible. Invest in advance, even if you can't make money, you can make a good bond. You can indeed consider investing in medical school."
Everyone is discussing whether to invest in medical schools or polytechnics.
The last one chose to invest in polytechnics, while others chose to invest in medical schools.
This investment is not something you can invest in.
The twists and turns will not be repeated one by one.
Speaking of self-ringing bells, it wasn't until the Polytechnic Institute issued an announcement in the newspaper that the folks knew that there was a new thing in the world that could tell the time automatically on time.
Looking at the time is not only accurate but also intuitive.
People who have never read a book can understand the time at a glance.
Everyone is curious about what the self-ringing bell looks like.
Haven't seen it before!
Polytechnics will not place the self-ringing pendulum on the street for people to visit.
It's not a four-wheeled carriage. Everyone can take a look on the street when it is built to run.
The person who bought the self-ringing bell, put it directly at home, and then invited relatives and friends to visit.
Any family that can afford to ring the bell has nothing to do with the general public.
Even if it is related, it would not invite a flat-headed citizen to visit the bell.
When everyone knows the price of self-ringing bells, it will be extremely rare.
The lowest price was three thousand taels, and people from all walks of life were secretly speechless.
"I won't earn three thousand taels in my entire life!"
"Three thousand taels is enough to buy ten sets in Phase 8 and Phase 9. If you buy a house at the Imperial College, you can buy 20 sets for a small apartment."
"Three thousand liang can buy a house in the city."
"Enough for my baby to read a book."
"What do you think the self-ringing bell looks like? Is it bling? Otherwise, why would it sell so expensive?"
"It's a bit expensive, but it can tell the time automatically."
"I didn't ring the bell before, so I won't be here."
"But time is not allowed."
"What do you need to do at such a precise time. The sun rises to the day to rest, and it has been like this since ancient times."
"That was before, now there is a bell tolling, it must be different."
"It's no different, the days have not been taken yet."
Regardless of whether the self-ringing bell is useful or not, it is rare to ring a bell from high officials to the general public.
The first order will be delivered one month later.
Huang Qubing was fortunate to be the first customer.
When the bell tolls was transported back to the mansion and placed in the Flower Hall, the whole government was a sensation.
Friends and relatives sent people to inquire.
Wouldn't you be the first person to buy a self-ringing bell?
It's not good to be uninvited!
Unable to hold the crowd booed, Huang Qubing hosted a banquet to entertain relatives and friends.
The theme of the banquet is to visit the self-ringing bell.
"it's beautiful!"
"So tall! It must be as tall as an adult."
"The base is installed below, so it looks high."
"The needle is moving? How do you say the needle moves? You can't hide someone behind it."
"Hahaha...How can Tibetans be possible in such a small place. As we all said, this is a self-ringing bell. There must be something extraordinary, so everyone is so rare."
"How on earth did this self-ringing bell be made?"
"I don't know! I have to ask people from the Polytechnic Institute."
The girls were chatting, full of curiosity.
Everyone suddenly lowered their voices and whispered: "I heard that the Polytechnic Institute is recruiting female students, but unfortunately no one is the first to register."
"The medical school also recruits female students. As far as I know, in addition to girls from medical families, there are also girls from civilian families studying in it."
"It is said that medical school has very strict requirements. There are assessments every year, and those who fail the assessment will be eliminated."
"The first batch of people from the clan who went to the medical school has already been eliminated from the 20th and 30th. Fortunately, after being eliminated, they are exempted from the exam and enter the Zhixing Academy."
"Our girl's going to the medical school is also a way out. As long as she graduates successfully, she can get the seventh grade official status."
"You don't have to go to the medical school to get the third product."
"That's different! One is the official body earned by himself, and the other is the commandment given by the man. The one earned by himself can't be taken away except the empress and your majesty. The staff can't control the medical officer. . The man gave it to you, that's not sure."
