"Before you read the "Twelve Average Rules", please allow me to say a few more words." Zhu Yiliu said, "The Twelve Average Rules is a method of music. Perhaps there are practices in all countries around the world, but the Twelve Average Rules theory was the first of my Prince Zheng of the Ming Dynasty. It was studied and proposed by him. No matter if you really understand it, I hope you all have enough respect."

Zhu Yili said it seriously, but this is what he said in his heart. The twelve equal laws are indeed great.

After all, more than four hundred years later, countries around the world still use this theory without any improvement.

It can be seen that Zhu Zaiyu's theory is awesome, which is the true representative of "the peak of his debut".

"How many of you are interested in music or have you studied music theory?" Zhu Yiliu asked.

After a glance, there were about twenty people.

Zhu Zaiyou suddenly felt a little cold, afraid that he would be embarrassed next time, so few people knew the goods.

However, he glanced at Zhu Yiliu and felt that the emperor still looked full of confidence.

"Crown Prince Zheng, whether they understand or not, let them see it?"

Zhu Yiliu raised his hand and ordered.

Zhu Zai-kun ordered people to publish his works and theories, and everyone also had one copy.

But the thickness of his book is incomparable to Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica".

It looks a bit shabby, pitiful...

As for the reactions of foreign missionaries after reading, it is completely different from the excitement he had when he just read "Compendium of Materia Medica".

Just now, foreign missionaries praised the "Compendium of Materia Medica" as soon as they read "Compendium of Materia Medica", and they were all frowning when they frowned.

It seems that I have seen a wordless book.

Zhu Zai's heart was cold again. For the second time, he couldn't help but look at Zhu Yiliu, and saw that Zhu Yiliu's expression and behavior were no different from that before.

"Come on, the prince will explain the theory of the twelve equal laws to you."

Zhu Yiliu ordered that he had read Zhu Zaiu's manuscripts, but it didn't feel that it was difficult to understand.

"Abide by the order."

Zhu Zaiji agreed and explained to everyone aloud: "The twelve average rhythms, also known as the twelve level Chenglu, is a method of music. Dividing an octave into twelve equal parts, and each equal part is called semitone, which is the most important tuning method."

"The semitone is the smallest pitch distance in the twelve average law organization. The whole tone consists of two semitones. 1-1 is divided into 12 parts. Specifically, it is 1-2 whole tone, 2-3 whole tone, 3-4 half tone, 4-5 whole tone, 5-6 whole tone, 6-7 whole tone, 7-    i half tone..."

Zhu Zaiyu explained patiently, but no matter whether it was during the listening process or after listening to his explanation, no foreign missionaries praised him, and they still frowned, as if they were listening to the heavenly book.

Zhu Zai-kun had to spread his hands at Zhu Yi-kun in embarrassment, saying that he had done his best.

Zhu Yili smiled and asked the foreign missionaries slowly: "Did you not discover the greatness of the twelve equal laws?"

After a moment of pause, he continued:

"The twelve average rhythms of several major chord notes are consistent with several notes in the natural overtone sequence, with only a slight difference, which provides the necessary conditions for the use of key-blowing instruments in the band."

"Because those instruments rely on natural overtone levels (natural overtone sequences, whose frequency is an integer multiple sequence of the fundamental frequency, into an arithmetic sequence) to form a scale."

"I want to tell you the most. The great theory of the twelve equality will be most widely used in symphony orchestras and keyboard instruments. The piano is determined based on the twelve equality, because only the twelve equality can be easily transferred."

It was not until I heard this that a missionary shouted, "I finally understand."

Then he couldn't wait to say, "His Majesty the Emperor, should I sell the copyright of this book to me?"

"What do you understand?" Zhu Yiliu asked.

"I understand that the invention of the twelve equal laws has completely solved the problem that the twelve laws cannot be repeated." The missionary said excitedly, "And the piano should look like in my mind. Please sell me the copyright to me."

It seems that this missionary may really understand it, but he can hit the mark.

"Did you buy it in your personal name?" Zhu Yili asked again.

"right."

"Then let's make a price." Zhu Yiliu didn't know anything.

"I'm willing to buy it for 400,000 taels of silver, but I'll need to use it for fifty years."

"..." Zhu Zai's heart was very blooming, hoping that his attention would nod and agree quickly. Four hundred thousand can be allocated 200,000, and everything can be solved and you can get rid of poverty immediately.

However, Zhu Yili shook his head and said dissatisfiedly: "If you really understand this theory, you can perfectly study and make a piano based on it. The piano is valuable, and it can earn more than a hundred times, thousands or even tens of times more than printing books."

"Then please ask His Majesty the Emperor to offer a price?"

"I need this number." Zhu Yiliu slowly stretched out a finger.

"A million taels? That's a little more?" the missionary bargained.

Zhu Zai's heart was about to jump out of his mind. The emperor should not do this. Finally, there was a person who knew the goods and could not kill him to death. Then don't talk about it.

All the officials of the Ming Dynasty were shocked and felt that participating in such a meeting was much more exciting than the court's discussion. They thought to themselves, is "The Twelve Average Rhythms" so valuable? They actually asked for one million to buy its copyright.

But what shocked them even more was that when they saw the emperor shook his head and said:

"No, it's 10 million to buy it out. From then on, except for the Ming Dynasty, you can use this theory to do what you want to do, whether you publish books or use it to make a piano. But the right to use it for a hundred years."

"..." The missionary's face changed.

"Cough cough..." Zhu Zai's coughing twice, wishing that Zhu Yiliu would quickly withdraw his words. He didn't dare to think about it, ten million... are you crazy?

"..." The officials of the Ming Dynasty looked at each other and were surprised, showing an incredible expression, thinking that this book in the Ming Dynasty did not cause much waves. Is it more valuable than "Compendium of Materia Medica"? How rich are foreigners? They even think that the emperor bullies foreigners "stupid".

What are you thinking?

A book costs ten million taels, but it has only been used for a hundred years. If this missionary agrees to buy it, will he be fooled by the emperor?

"His Majesty the Emperor means, do you only sell me?" the missionary asked urgently.

"Yes, I just mentioned the buyout. Except for the Ming Dynasty, all development and management rights in other countries belong to you."

“Can the price be negotiated?”

"No, it's just this price, no more or less, ten million." Zhu Yiliu insisted.

Zhu Zai's hearing it made him feel as if the sky was dim and the earth was dark.

Suddenly, another missionary raised his hand and said loudly: "I'll buy it-"

It immediately attracted everyone's attention.
