The videos I watched became popular in ancient times

Chapter 201 House, car, money

Zhang Juzheng's questions came to an end, and ancient people from all dynasties cheered up.

Everyone has made sufficient preparations for the next rush to buy products, and is waiting for the anchor to post the watch link.

Although everyone doesn't know what a watch is, a novel object like this sounds like a craft product of later generations.

Just like the walkie-talkies and bicycles before it, just hearing this unfamiliar name tells you that it is not something that can be produced in this era.

Since watches are handicrafts produced by later generations, they are definitely treasures in the world.

It is precisely because of this that everyone is looking forward to it and everyone is in high spirits.

The anchor just talked about the topic of Zhang Juzheng at length. Many people were not very interested and almost fell asleep listening to it late at night.

Now that we have finally finished talking about it, we have finally reached the snap-up phase that everyone is interested in.

Su Chen talked for a long time, and his mouth was a little dry. He took the mineral water next to him and took a big sip, and he was instantly resurrected with full blood.

"Okay, that's the end of the topic just now. Next is the rush buying session that everyone is looking forward to."

"The product the anchor has prepared for everyone tonight is a watch. I think many people are confused and don't know what a watch is. The anchor will show it to everyone and you will know."

Under the expectant eyes of ancient people from all dynasties, Su Chen took out a box that had been prepared.

Then he opened the box in front of everyone, and a silver-white exquisite watch lay inside.

In order to let everyone see clearly, Su Chen deliberately zoomed in on the live broadcast camera so that everyone could see the exquisite mechanical watch more clearly.

When ancient people from various dynasties saw the exquisite little objects in the box, they all looked at each other with great doubts.

Everyone looked at it for a long time and still didn't understand what the watch was and what magical function it had.

But not to mention, the silver-white material of the watch is really eye-catching, and it is worth a lot of money at a glance.

This alone is enough to conclude that the watch is a rare treasure.

Ying Zheng: What are the twelve numbers on the watch used for, and what about the pointer pointing to number 12?

Not to mention that other people looked confused, even he didn't understand.

After this period of baptism of knowledge from Tianmu, he could easily recognize the twelve numbers on the watch.

This kind of numbers from 1 to 12 is indeed very useful and has been used in daily memorials.

Moreover, he also planned to promote the numbers from later generations to the whole country, so that all the people of Da Qin would learn to use such simple numbers.

After all, this kind of number is simple and convenient, and it is very convenient to use for counting in daily life.

It's just that he didn't understand the purpose of engraving twelve numbers on the watch, and these twelve numbers happened to form a circle, and the intervals between each number looked the same.

What surprised him the most was the pointer pointing to the number 12. After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't come up with any clue.

However, although he did not know what the watch was used for, the exquisite style of the watch attracted him deeply.

As the name suggests, watches are related to hands, somewhat similar to bracelets, and they appear to be worn on the wrist.

He tried to imagine the scene of wearing the watch on his wrist, not to mention it seemed quite suitable.

Zhang Juzheng: Anchor, what is this watch? what's the effect?

He fell in love with this watch at first sight and thought it was extremely beautiful and made with very fine workmanship.

Although he liked it, he didn't ask it for himself, but for the little emperor.

Children are most interested in exquisite objects like this.

He could clearly see the little emperor's obsessed eyes from the side, and he immediately had an idea in his mind.

Since the emperor likes it, he will buy it and give it to the emperor.

Presumably in this way, he can gain more favor from the emperor and prevent the emperor from becoming dissatisfied with him again.

Zhang Juzheng is not the only one who asks about watches. There are many barrages with the same question.

"Look at the watch in the anchor's hand. Its function is very simple. It is specially used to keep time."

"Now that the hands are not moving, you may not understand. The anchor will adjust it now so that everyone can carefully feel the charm of the watch's timing."

After Su Chen finished speaking, he began to adjust his watch and adjusted the time to the current time against his phone.

After the anchor's explanation, the ancients from all dynasties suddenly realized what the twelve numbers on the watch were about.

Just now, many people were surprised by the numbers on the watch and did not understand what the numbers were used for.

Now it is finally clear that the twelve numbers are the twelve hours of the day, and they correspond exactly to each other.

But even though the anchor said that watches are used to tell time, there are still many people who don’t understand how to tell time.

Ying Zheng: The key to timing is probably the pointer. At any time of day, the pointer points to the number.

He couldn't help but admire the wonderful ideas of later generations, and they were able to create objects like watches.

In this way, as long as you wear the watch on your wrist, you can know the current time anytime and anywhere.

His Da Qin Palace also had special timing tools, but drip timing was far less convenient than watch timing.

But there was one thing that he didn't understand. If the watch had only one hand, would it be too rough for timekeeping and would not be able to record precise time points.

Not only Ying Zheng had such doubts, but other ancients in various dynasties also had such doubts.

After all, they only see one pointer, which is fine for recording time, but not if they want to record the exact time.

When the anchor showed the adjusted watch to everyone for review, everyone realized that they had just made a mistake.

It's not just one pointer, it turns out there are three pointers.

Just now, the three pointers were stacked on top of each other, which caused everyone to misread it.

Su Chen put the watch on his wrist and zoomed in to show it to everyone.

"Everyone can see it clearly now. The anchor will give you a brief introduction to the watch."

"First of all, there are twelve numbers on the dial, which correspond to twelve hours, which is slightly different from the twelve hours everyone uses."

"Twelve hours in the morning and twelve hours in the afternoon make up the twenty-four hours in a day that we will use in future generations."

"The shortest hand is the hour hand, and one revolution takes twelve hours."

"The hour hand is now between the number 8 and the number 9, which means it is 8 o'clock in the evening."

"The medium-length hand is the minute hand, and one revolution is 60 minutes, which is one hour."

"You can see that there are four small marks between the two numbers, and each small mark represents one minute."

"The minute hand is now a small scale to the left of the number 6, which means it is 31 minutes."

"The longest hand and the fastest hand is the second hand." "It takes 60 seconds for the second hand to move once, which is one minute."

"Generally, when we look at the time on a watch, we only need to look at the hour and minute hands, not the second hand."

"So now the time displayed on the watch is 8:31 pm, which can also be said to be 20:31."

"The second hand has passed the number 12, which means it has traveled one circle, which is one minute. You can see that the minute hand has moved another small mark, so the current time is 20:32."

As soon as Su Chen finished speaking, ancient people from all dynasties showed expressions of enlightenment and joy.

It turns out that this is what happened, and everyone finally understood how watches are used to tell time.

Not to mention, the hour hand, minute hand, and second hand can record any time of the day very accurately.

Liu Che: The three hands of the watch are really great for keeping time. If I grab one and wear it on my wrist, then I can know the time anytime and anywhere in the future.

After the anchor introduced the timekeeping method of the watch in detail, he found that the role of the watch was too great.

Dahan's current timekeeping method is completely different from that of a watch.

If you have a watch, wearing it on your hand will not only be noble and elegant, but it can also be used to check the time, killing two birds with one stone.

The watch was not only exquisite in style, but more importantly, it had great timing functions, which made him fall in love with it immediately.

He couldn't wait at this moment and couldn't wait to buy a watch now.

However, he found something puzzling on the dial. Apart from what the anchor just introduced, there seemed to be something else that had not been introduced yet.

Liu Che: Anchor, what does the set of numbers next to the number 3 mean?

Liu Che's words attracted the attention of others, and they all looked at the anchor, waiting for the anchor's explanation.

Many people had this question just now and were about to ask the anchor, but Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty asked it for everyone.

"You can see these two numbers. The number twelve in the front represents the month, and the number 9 in the back represents the date, which means it is December th, and there are not many days left until New Year's Eve."

Ancient people from various dynasties were quite surprised when they heard this. They did not expect that it even had such functions as month and date.

In this way, a watch can display more accurate time.

Everything from the month to the second can be accurately displayed on the watch.

Xiao Wanli: Mr. Zhang, I want this watch.

The moment the anchor took out the watch, he fell in love with it, and the exquisite silver-white appearance attracted him deeply.

After listening to the anchor's introduction to the timing function of the watch, he liked it even more and was deeply fascinated by it.

Zhang Juzheng: Your Majesty, no problem. Leave it to me. I will buy a watch and give it to the Emperor later.

He found that the watch was really good for keeping time, and even he was itching to see it.

But since the emperor wants it, he must give priority to the emperor no matter what.

I just hope that the anchor will not limit the purchase of one watch per person, so that he can also participate.

However, he was not too anxious. Even if he was limited to one watch, he could still get the watch from other people.

"The anchor wants to tell everyone that the numbers and hands on the dial are coated with fluorescent agent, so you can read the time even in darkness at night."

"The two small knobs next to the watch are used to adjust the time. One adjusts the hands and the other adjusts the date. You can try it out after you grab it."

Everyone was amazed when they heard that the watch could be read clearly at night.

A small watch with many functions, far beyond their expectations.

They thought that the hour hand, minute hand, and second hand would already impress them, but later they discovered that the month and date can also be displayed, and now there is an additional function to check the time at night.

They had to sigh that it was indeed a commodity for future generations, which opened their eyes.

Many people are impatient and have prepared their money early, just waiting for the anchor to link.

"The anchor has prepared several brands of watches for everyone. Most of them are men's models, and a few are women's models."

"If someone has a woman he likes, if he gives her a women's watch, he will surely win her back."

"You must know that in the 1970s and 1980s, watches were essential for marriage. Without a watch, a man would not be able to find a wife at all."

When the rich young men from various dynasties heard what the anchor said, they nodded in agreement, feeling that what the anchor said was very reasonable.

Indeed, no matter in terms of rarity, exquisiteness, or function, a watch is far more effective as a gift to a beloved woman than gold and silver jewelry.

There are already many rich and powerful young men who want to buy a women's watch and give it to the long-awaited oiran in Yihongyuan.

Li Shimin: Anchor, what will your future generations give you when you get married now so that you can win the beauty?

He noticed that the anchor mentioned the 1970s, and he roughly understood what period it was.

But he was even more curious. The anchor lived in an era that was fifty years away from the 1970s, and the customs of marriage would definitely change.

"His Majesty Taizong doesn't know. We need more to get married now, such as a house, a car, and money."

"But today's young people can hardly afford these on their own. They can only afford to get married if they spend their parents' savings, and even then they will be overwhelmed by mortgage and car loans."

"That's why it's popular among our young people to just lie down and not want to struggle, work hard, or bear the pressure of life."

"Moreover, marriage is relatively late. Nowadays, it is more common to get married around the age of thirty, and many people are even unwilling to get married."

As soon as Su Chen finished speaking, one stone stirred up a thousand waves.

Ancient people from all dynasties were in an uproar instantly, and everyone was in disbelief, unable to believe what the anchor said.

In their impression, the living conditions of the future generations where the anchor lives are extremely high, and the food output is so high that there is no need to worry about food and drink.

Moreover, there will be so many good things in future generations, including various industrial products with magical functions.

With such good living conditions in later generations, people don't get married until they are thirty years old. There are even many people who are unwilling to get married. They can't figure it out anyway.

If they had such good living conditions, they would have a family full of children and grandchildren by the time they were thirty.

As for the pressure of mortgage and car loans mentioned by the anchor, they were even more confused.

After all, if they get married, they can just bring the woman home, and there is no need for a house or car at all.

Li Shimin: Anchor, if the living conditions of later generations are so good, why do young people want to lie down and why are they unwilling to get married? Can the anchor explain in detail? I'm very curious and can't figure it out.

Not only Li Shimin was curious, but many ancient people from various dynasties were also very curious.

The living conditions of later generations are good, but young people are unwilling to get married without saying anything. This phenomenon is so contrary to common sense that they can't understand it.

"Well, since everyone is so curious, the anchor will go down to look for information and play the video for everyone to watch tomorrow morning."
