The famous "a piece of cloth on the head, I am the richest in the world" joke that came to China to buy missiles was not performed. Although the kind of thing that stretched out a finger, the price here was 100 million yuan, but the other side said that 100 million US dollars was as funny as 100 million US dollars, but according to the Crown Prince's private notes, it was indeed prepared 100 billion US dollars at that time. If the Chinese quotation was lower than 8 billion, it would be directly taken, and if it exceeded 8 billion, it was asking the king for instructions.
As a result, China's offer of 100 million US dollars each, which surprised the crown prince.
What surprised China was that the crown prince agreed immediately and purchased 35 pieces at a time, totaling 35 US dollars, exceeding China's foreign exchange reserves at that time.
The cost of China's own construction at that time was said to be only two million yuan per coin, RMB.
The situation is similar now. After getting out of the base and getting on the car, Li Laosan couldn't help but hold his stomach and laugh: "Hahahahaha... 45 million US dollars to build a global satellite communication system! How can such a good thing happen!"
"It is a private global satellite communication system." Zhou Zhi and Li Laosan emphasized: "If the international satellite communication organization needs to provide transfer services, the tolls that have to be paid will be expensive every year."
"So we have to do our own!" Li Laosan waved his fist: "Build our own receivers and adapters nearest to the computer rooms of major securities markets around the world, and then send them directly to our satellite system, which can earn dozens of milliseconds more!"
This is indeed true. The quantitative trading system in later generations once made information systems that could be in the same city as the securities market system faster than other places because of poor communication.
Although this speed difference is only in milliseconds, it directly determines the first-mover advantage.
With the satellite system transfer, although Zhouzhi is not as fast as the hosts in the same city, it can respond to the Luncheng stock market faster than the seats far in New York City, and its response speed to the New York City is much faster than the seats in Luncheng City.
Although the transmission of information is the speed of current, the process of switching encryption and decryption in various devices also requires program processing time.
Therefore, information propagation is not the current speed or the light speed, but depends on the transfer link in the transmission.
Theoretically, the fewer links, the faster the speed.
Satellite communication is undoubtedly the communication method with the least intermediate links now, and it has become the fastest communication method.
The premise is that the bandwidth is not squeezed by other users, that is, the delay caused by the time division mode when shared by multiple users.
There is no such problem with private satellites.
Their quantitative system is now more than 40 milliseconds faster than conventional communications. If they use private satellites, they can be improved to more than 100 milliseconds.
It is equivalent to seeing the trading markets around the world in a hundred milliseconds ahead of others, and then layout them in advance through quantitative trading systems, triggering high-frequency order grabbing through automatic trading. In the case of exclusive play, it is almost like picking up money.
It's no wonder that Li Laosan laughed so happily.
But Zhou Zhi thought more.
That is, now, the International Satellite Communications Organization also allows such "resource waste". After another twenty years, it will be "one frequency band, one pile of gold".
First take down this frequency band, and when communication means are upgraded in the future, old satellites can be eliminated and new satellites can be activated.
This is equivalent to transforming rural roads into super information expressways. The future era is an era when information is king. With this expressway in hand, the benefits that can be converted will undoubtedly be very huge. "Why are the third brother so happy?" The sun is a bit strong in Lianhe Township in early summer, and you can't stay outside during the day, but you don't feel the heat at all under the eaves, and you're also dry. Especially in the grain station, where the earthen buildings are mainly used, it can be described as a summer resort.
Zhou Zhi and Mai Xiaomiao prepared jelly for the children. Li Laosan first brought a bowl and sat on the rocking chair under the eaves, shaking it while eating, very leisurely and comfortable.
This season is also a season of food gatherings, with fruits and fish and shrimps very rich.
The children were sunburned like black charcoal heads. The boys were shaking now because they could exchange fish and shrimps for Zhou Zhi for food, so that the girls could enjoy it.
The food is very simple. Zhou Zhi will make it before school every afternoon, usually it is jelly and cold cake.
The method of making cold cake is very simple. First, soak the rice in spring water and grind it, pour it into a boiling water pot and stir it continuously. After boiling it into a paste, add clarified lime water and stir it evenly, and put it in a cleaning bowl to cool naturally;
The cooled cold cake is cut into four pieces with a bamboo knife, and then put it in a clean water tank to float away the excess alkali. It is kept in cold water. When the children are out of school, they can be taken out and drizzled with brown syrup and have a nice meal.
The method of making jelly is simpler than cold cakes, similar to cold cakes, but you don’t need to add lime water. Take a portion of starch and put it in a large bowl, then use the same container to take two parts of water and add it to it. After stirring until the starch is not a little granular, add four parts of water to the pot, boil the water and pour in the stirred starch water, stirring continuously until the sticky starch paste in the pot starts to bubble and turn off the heat.
Pick a container, use clean water to flow the inner wall of the container, then pour the starch paste into the container, shake it after pouring it, shake out the bubbles inside to make the surface smoother. After the paste is cold, the jelly will be prepared.
Lianhexiang many starch can be made into jelly, potato flour, sweet potato flour, pea flour, and mung bean flour, with subtle differences in taste and taste.
The seasoning of jelly is similar to that of cold noodles, tofu, soy sauce, sesame oil, onion, ginger, garlic, pepper noodles, sweet and sour, fried peas, crushed peanuts, crispy soybeans, minced pickles, shredded cucumber...
No mistakes, one poem, one content, one in one 6, one book, one bar, one bar!
Anyway, you can forget to add any seasonings you can find, but you can't add sauce. The jelly should be eaten refreshingly, and the seasonings should not be used to make it muddy.
When Zhou Zhi was cooking jelly for the children, Mai Xiaomiao liked to participate because there was a tool to scrape jelly, called Xuanzi, which she used as a toy.
Put the large basin containing jelly upside down, remove the basin, and the jelly is placed on the table like a small hill bag.
The spiral is a small stainless steel disc with some round holes chiseled at a certain angle. Put it on the jelly and scrape it. A thin and long jelly will be scraped out from each round hole, like noodles.
Catch it and put it in a bowl, and it will be a bowl of "rotten jelly".
The jelly used to make spiral jelly has good toughness, and it is best to make spiral jelly pea powder and mung bean powder.
In fact, the taste is the same as a knife cut, but everyone, including Li Laosan, thinks that the jelly made from radish is more delicious.
"I found a big project that cost me money these days," Zhou Zhi teased, "I think we should drive him away."
"And then I talk nonsense." Mai Xiaomiao grabbed a portion of jelly into the bowl and gently hit Zhou Zhi with her shoulders: "Even if I want to hurry, wait for Ren Zhong or A Zi to come back, otherwise we won't have fun."
"Hahaha..." Zhou Zhi laughed in a low voice: "Xiaomiao, you are also learning to be naughty." (End of this chapter)
