Three days. According to the official website of the Post and Telecommunications Bureau, it used to take three days to send a telegram. The telegraph was the first reliable method of long-distance instant communication using electricity to transmit information. It was developed in the United Kingdom and the United States in the 1830s. Telegraph information is sent as electrical signals through dedicated switching lines. Telegraph signals use codes instead of letters and numbers. The code used is Morse code. With the popularization of telephones, faxes, etc., telegraphs are rarely used.
At least for now
The telegram should be sent to the post office now
