Chapter 598 Donating Mobile Phones to the Army
When Cheng Ying heard that she would be given a free shop if she opened one in Lin'an City, she was naturally willing to accept.
It doesn't matter where you open a shop, especially since Lin'an City is a gathering place for the wealthy and powerful, where mobile phones can sell well.
Cheng Ying nodded without hesitation, "Then thank you."
Ye Shengtang laughed heartily when he saw that Cheng Ying had agreed. "Hahaha, good! Yuanfu, you take care of this matter. Find a large place with lots of people for Miss Lin."
"Yes, Your Majesty, this old servant will certainly handle things well," Eunuch Yuanfu said with a smile.
Ye Shengtang then asked, "Miss Lin, may I take a look beforehand to see which models of mobile phones you are selling?"
"The imperial court wants to reserve some suitable places first, especially some remote border areas in Lin Yue Kingdom. If they have mobile phones, they can report any issues in a timely manner."
"It doesn't need to be very beautiful, just practical. The palace also needs some things that can be used for close communication. Do you have any suitable ones?"
After listening to the Emperor's request, Cheng Ying thought for a moment and then took out three different types of mobile phones with different functions.
"Your Majesty, do you see any of these three that you like?"
Cheng Ying turned on all three phones and then introduced them one by one:
"The first type has a smaller screen than the one we have, but it can still make video calls, and it also has video recording, photo taking, and audio recording functions, as well as weather forecasts and more than a hundred mini-games!"
"The second type can only make voice calls. Although it can also create groups for multi-person conversations, it doesn't have as many functions as the first type. Sending text messages, setting timers, and checking the time are the most basic functions."
"The third type can only be used for short-range communication. Of course, in a large city like Lin'an, as long as you are within Lin'an, you can receive the call."
"The only function is voice calls; there are no other functions."
"All three of these require solar charging. Once fully charged, they can last for six months, which is half a year."
"The only downside is that you have to keep an eye on the battery level, and it's best to charge it beforehand if it's low."
"This is the battery indicator light. It's full now. Each bar less means one less unit of charge. It will need to be charged when there's only one unit left."
Cheng Ying pointed to the phone screen, showing Ye Shengtang the battery level display.
Ye Shengtang saw the battery indicator on the screen and realized that it was true. After looking at the three phones, none of them had as many functions as the one in his hand, and it also had such a convenient phone stand.
But it has all the most basic functions he needs; after all, a mobile phone just needs to be functional.
"Your Majesty has one more point: besides this phone for close-range communication, the other two types can be identified by fingerprint."
"In other words, it can be owner-owned, and whoever uses it enters their fingerprint? That way, no one else can use this phone except for that person."
"Of course, you can also register the fingerprints of several people at the same time and designate those people to be able to use them. I think both can be used in the military."
"This third method can also be used in a military camp. It all depends on Your Majesty's decision on how to arrange it?"
Ye Shengtang nodded and said, "Any three will do. I need some of each of them. I wonder how much each of these phones costs?"
Cheng Ying thought for a moment and said, "The first type has more functions, it costs three thousand taels each, the second type costs one thousand five hundred taels each, and the third type costs three hundred taels each."
"Of course, the more you need, the more discounts you will get. If Your Majesty needs to purchase mobile phones for the army, I am willing to donate 500 of the first type, 2,000 of the second type, and 5,000 of the third type."
Ye Shengtang was initially hesitant upon hearing the price. He understood that mobile phones were rare, as they were essentially nonexistent in the world, and such a high price was to be expected.
However, it's unrealistic for all the troops in Lin Yue to use mobile phones. He was even planning to ask about the preferential price and calculate how many to purchase.
But the next second they heard that Cheng Ying was willing to donate so much, which was more than enough!
Even if some items need to be purchased, there's no need to buy too many. It seems this young lady is quite capable, managing such a large sum of money.
"Miss Lin truly lives up to her reputation as a disciple of a deity. Although she is a woman, she possesses a spirit that rivals any man's," Ye Shengtang couldn't help but praise.
"Your Majesty, you flatter me. I am originally from Lin Yue Kingdom, and I am happy to make some contributions to Lin Yue Kingdom. Besides, I can't be stingy just for the sake of Senior Brother Ye and Senior Brother Xuan."
In fact, Cheng Ying had his own selfish reasons for donating so many mobile phones. After all, he was closely connected with the Lin Yue Kingdom. Only when the Lin Yue Kingdom was safe could his family live peacefully in the Lin Yue Kingdom.
