Chapter 169 The patent is worth a thousand gold

The next morning, Bi Laosan came with the craftsman who invented clay movable type. As soon as he entered the door, Changsun Chong, Dugu Xiude and Yuchi Huan came together. The ones who accompanied them were nine craftsmen, each with three people.

Although Li Mu has reiterated the concept of making money together and sharing it together, the selfish concept that has been deeply rooted in the bones will not disappear so easily. If you learn the secret method of salt making, who will be willing to surrender? If you have been learned by the Changsun family, no one else can rest for generations?

No one would agree to this kind of thing. They did not dare to argue in front of Li Mu anymore. The three companies in Datang Mining were the lessons of the past, and they were scolded. So the three companies together, and they met nine out of three, and no one suffered a loss.

Therefore, the three families came a little later. In Zhulu Hou Mansion, there was no such thing as jumping into the lineup. Since Bi Laosan came first, they could only wait.

The gatekeeper Zhao Youcai received them. As the saying goes, the third-rank official in front of the prime minister. Although Li Mu is not the prime minister, Zhao Youcai is not the third-rank official, but since he received Li Tai and gave Li Tai a bowl of noodles soup, Zhao Youcai has trained it. No matter what kind of dignitaries he receives, he can do it without any politeness. This is actually a psychological effect. I have received the prince. No matter how noble you are, can you be as noble as the emperor's son?

The three of them sat in the lobby. It was colder every day when it was winter, but the lobby of Zhulu Hou Mansion did not feel cold at all. As the inventor of the braised kang and fire wall, Li Mu certainly had to implement it first in his home. He had money and had no place to spend it, so he transformed every room in Zhulu Hou Mansion.

It is really unfair to say that the world is really unfair. Li Mu is not short of money and wants to spend money, but he didn't spend a penny from beginning to end. The craftsmen of the Ministry of Works regard being able to work in Zhulu Marquis' Mansion as an honor. Who would collect his money? Who would dare to collect his money? If he really collects it, he would not be scolded to death when he goes back? The Marquis gave us hard craftsmen a bowl of rice. When he is in labor service, he can still make money. If you don't want to repay, you dare to ask for the Marquis' money, and you are called a person?

When Li Mu heard Li Zhien talk about these things, he was relieved and distressed. He was relieved of the simplicity of the craftsmen and knew how to repay kindness, but he was worried that his money had no place to spend. A master in his previous life once said that the most painful thing in life was that people die and money was not spent. In the foreseeable future, money will inevitably make more and more money. If you can't draw it, it will lose motivation even if you don't mention it.

Shortly after the three of them sat down, Dugu Jiu came over. His father came to the door. As a son, he certainly had to come out to meet him. However, he was still wearing a mask. This mask was a new mask made by Li Mu for him. It no longer covers the entire face, but only covers the mouth and nose, which looks like a mask. The system sets that the principle of voice changer changing sound is to change the airflow exhaled from the mouth and nose, so such a half-face mask can also have the same effect.

Dugu Jiu, who covered half of his face, had a clear eyebrows and a handsome look, and could not tell much of the male aura. Instead, it looked a bit like Wang Ou wearing a veil. Changsun Chong had seen Dugu Jiu, but he had never seen Dugu Jiu wearing a half-mask. When he saw it, he couldn't help but have some random thoughts about the relationship between Li Mu and Dugu Jiu. Could it be that this guy is as good as Long Yang?

Although I thought this way, Changsun Chong did not agree with it. Long Yang's preference and the habit of breaking his sleeves were not a derogatory term in the thoughts of the ancients, but a relatively positive term. The favor of ** has existed in ancient times. Since the Qin, Han, Wei and Jin Dynasties, many literati, poets, and nobles have had this hobby, which did not affect the world's reputation for them at all. Instead, it was circulated as a good story and showed their romanticism.

What Changsun Chong thought to himself was that he didn't realize that Dugu Xiude, an old guy, could do his best to give up so much money. In order to curry favor with Li Mu, he even gave his son.

He believed in this. Li Mu was furious about Dugu Jiu yesterday. He still remembered it vividly. If he was just an ordinary brother and guard, would he have such a crime?

Changsun Chong thought in his heart, but he looked smiling on his face. He nodded to Dugu Jiu kindly, showing that he and Dugu Jiu were familiar with him. But his little thoughts were useless. Yuchi Huan didn't look over at all. From entering the lobby, he sat straight like a sculpture, looking ahead, and didn't care at all about what was around him.

Dugu Xiude didn't know Changsun Chong's dirty thoughts, and he was a little proud. When you tried your best to curry favor with Zhulu Marquis, I was calm and didn't need to worry at all, because my son is now in Zhulu Marquis' Mansion. What's the benefit? Can I lose my Dugu family? He even thought in his mind that if this continues, in the circle of Guanlong nobles, the Dugu family will inevitably make its mark again. Even if it is not as good as the Changsun family, he can firmly sit in the second place and no one dares to underestimate it.

To achieve this goal, you must count on Li Mu. The first thing you must do is to show that you have a close relationship with Li Mu. Dugu Xiude rolled his eyes, gave his son a wink, and said, "Jiu'er, what is the Marquis doing now?"

"Back to my father, my elder brother is inspecting the craftsmen brought by Jishen Bi."

Changsun Chong took over and said, "I know this. Yesterday, when I was drinking tea with the Marquis in heaven and earth, I met with the printing supervisor Bi Jianzheng. It is said that a craftsman invented clay movable type, which is not only clear in printing, but also more durable. The Marquis said that today's inspection, if what he said is true, he would reward this craftsman. Don't you know that Dugu Shishi knew? Oh, right, when I was drinking tea yesterday, I was only present, and both of you were not here, haha..."

Yuchi Huan glanced at Changsun and said coolly: "I don't like drinking tea."

Dugu Xiude smiled, but cursed in his heart, showing you! Who doesn’t know that you are sticking to someone like a dog skin plaster? This tea is rubbing!

Dugu Xiude ignored the president Sun Chong and said to Dugu Jiu: "Jiuer, my father is also very curious about this printing technique. Can you take my father to see it?"

"No!" Dugu Jiu vetoed it without thinking and said, "Brother said that movable type is the patent of this craftsman, and he must protect and his rights. No one can read it except him. He asked me to come over to look at you just to avoid you from coveting and doing something that will prevent everyone from coming to Taiwan."

Dugu Xiude's expression was frozen on his face, which was too slap in the face. It turned out that my son was not here to welcome his father, but to monitor his father! Dugu Xiude was furious and said, "Who is your father, you are your son!"

Changsun Chong chuckled and said, "Uncle Shi, don't be angry. I think my brother is right."

Dugu Jiu looked over and said, "I am not your virtuous brother, I'm almost there. My brother said, you fat man are so mean."

One sentence made Changsun Chong speechless. He rubbed his nose awkwardly and grinned, "Why is it so ugly..."

Just when the atmosphere was extremely awkward, Li Mu finally appeared. Bi Laosan and a young craftsman followed Li Mu. Li Mu looked full of spring breeze, and Bi Laosan and the young craftsman seemed a little excited.

"Everything is here," Li Mu greeted him, and everyone quickly greeted him. Li Mu introduced him to both sides, and everyone was told in one word, only this young craftsman, who focused on it.

"This one is the rising star of the Ministry of Works, Bi Menting, the nephew of Bi Jianzheng. The clay movable type he invented has been verified by me personally, and its effect is far beyond all current movable type. It is enough to meet the standards for applying for a patent. I have asked him just now that he is willing to sell the patent to the court. With this patent, he can get from an apprentice from a Ministry of Works, leaping from a Ministry of Works, and being promoted to a technician from a Ministry of Works, and getting a property in an independent craftsman's workshop, plus the cost of buying out a patent at one time."

After hearing Li Mu's words, everyone gasped. That day, Li Mu said passionately, and thought he had painted a cake. Unexpectedly, he really did this. A property, a thousand guan, and a lowly craftsman changed his destiny. Since then, the fate of his descendants and his descendants has changed. All this is because of his clay movable type, a so-called "patent".

This is too valuable!

The craftsmen brought by Changsun Chong and others were instantly red in their eyes, and they saw hope!

Li Mu sent Bi Laosan and Bi Menting away, and asked them to go back to the Ministry of Works to go through the procedures. When the procedures were over, the reward would be fulfilled. Zhao Youcai sent someone out. Li Mu looked at the remaining three families, his eyes were all over and said, "Depending on the meaning, you three families each bring three people? I remember, I just said yesterday that you should unite and be united. What do you mean?"

Changsun Chong quickly said, "It's not intentionally against your arrangement. It's a coincidence, it's a coincidence!"

The other two quickly agreed.

Li Mu smiled and said, "Okay, it's right, okay, the people from the Changsun family come with me."

Dugu Xiude and Yuchi Huan panicked and said, "Marty, we have brought people here too, why are we only teaching Changsun's family?"

Before Li Mu could speak, Changsun Chong smiled and said, "The Marquis' secret method, whoever you like to teach, why? You are not convinced? You can go back if you don't agree. As the Marquis said, our company is one. My Changsun family has learned the secret method, and you can also share the money. If you work hard, you will suffer a little. If you suffer a loss, you will suffer a little. Our Changsun family will be responsible for it."

Yuchi Huan sneered, "Why might as well let my Yuchi family take care of him?"

"Not good!" Dugu Xiude continued, "You two are juniors. How can you two be with me, the elder, be here? How can I explain to you when I see your father in the future? If you suffer a loss, it's better for my Dugu family!"

"Uncle Shi, you're a little bit..."

Seeing that the three of them were about to start arguing, Li Mu took a deep breath and shouted: "Shut up! Everyone teaches you, come one by one, do you understand? You two families are waiting, the Changsun family members, come here!"
