Zhao Gao does not allow himself to fail. If he fails again, his people will really be scattered.
Therefore, this time he took personal command and spent three days making sufficient preparations. Then he ordered some people to write to the emperor.
The contents of the petition are similar: "His Majesty's establishment of a patent office is completely out of a molehill. For such a long time, except for some patents proposed by Huaiguzi, the people are still living in confusion and have not proposed anything at all."
"So this patent office is completely protecting Li Shui's efforts to make money. Over time, the banished immortal's thoughts are all about making money. How can he make elixirs with peace of mind?"
"It's better to simply give him a sum of money and let him focus on studying magic. Don't think about how to make money all day long, and calculate all day long what costs and what profits."
"The establishment of this patent office not only does not benefit the Qin Dynasty, but also delays the refining of immortality and the emperor's immortality."
To be honest, this memorial is well-written and well-founded. And the suggestion was very gentle: not to kill Li Shui, but to let him make elixirs in peace.
Although Zhao Gao now hates Li Shui, he also clearly understands it. I'm afraid it's not realistic to kill this person. It's better to cut him off first, let him withdraw from the government, and become a little alchemist who quietly refines alchemy again.
After Ying Zheng read the memorial, he called Zhao Teng and asked, "I have been setting up a patent office for some time. During this period, besides Sophora Millet, has anyone else obtained a patent?"
Zhao Teng said: "No."
Ying Zheng sighed: "It seems that this patent office is really unnecessary? Huaiguzi's idea is indeed very good, but the people of our country are stupid. Perhaps, in another ten years, it is the time to set up a patent office. .”
Zhao Teng was a little confused after hearing this, and thought to himself: "What's going on? Are you going to remove my patent office? Who am I provoking? Why are there always people targeting me?"
Who among the courtiers doesn’t like to be in power? Zhao Teng is no exception. He could feel that the patent office had a lot to offer.
Just a patent for fairy paper has stirred up the restlessness in Xianyang City, and transactions worth tens of millions of dollars are frequent every day. This is just the beginning. As time goes by, there will be more similar patents, and every patent certification issued by the patent office may shock the world.
As for myself, as the controller of the patent office, I am sure that the rising tide will lift all boats.
But now, as soon as this dream started, it was about to be broken.
Zhao Teng opened his mouth and wanted to defend himself, but Ying Zheng waved his hand and said, "Stay back. In the future, when Huaiguzi develops new immortal skills, I will naturally reward him. This patented method is too It consumes energy so that he doesn’t have to pay attention.”
Zhao Teng had no choice but to agree and quickly left the palace.
After leaving the palace, he immediately got on the carriage and headed for Shang Jun's courtyard.
On the way, Zhao Teng suddenly realized that his interests were really tied to Li Shui's.
But Li Shui is like a wild horse running wild. Although he is very fast, he will knock people down if he is not careful. It is very dangerous to cooperate with this person.
Zhao Teng thought for a long time and finally decided that it was okay to cooperate with Li Shui, but he must keep a distance. After the cooperation is over, we still have to be strangers again.
Thinking like this all the way, Zhao Teng has arrived at Shangjun Courtyard.
As soon as Zhao Teng got off the carriage, the craftsman guarding the door came up to him excitedly.
Zhao Teng was a little helpless and said, "Go and inform Huaiguzi that Zhao Teng is here."
The craftsman asked, "Why don't you come in and talk in detail?"
Zhao Teng said: "No need, I am no better than your Mr. Huai. I make a lot of money every day and my family is rich. I can't afford your entry fee."
The craftsman laughed dryly and said, "If you don't have any money, you can pay on credit."
Zhao Teng waved his hand impatiently: "What's the credit? I'll talk to him at the door. Just a few words, and I'll leave after that."
The craftsman had no choice but to nod his head and said: "Then Sir Lao is waiting here. But...if someone sees you standing at the door of Shangjun Villa, I am afraid they will have some associations. Maybe they will think that you and my lord are We have made friends. They are close friends. This..."
Zhao Teng was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Just now you said credit, what kind of credit method do you mean?"
The craftsman smiled and took out a piece of paper: "My lord, please take a look."
The price list is clearly listed above:
1. Those who are most respected, admired and admired by the banished immortals will be exempted from tickets. Like an emperor.
Second, if you banish immortals and make friends, you will be exempted from tickets. Such as Li Xin.
Third, to banish the descendants of immortals, only 50% of the tickets are charged. Such as Fusu.
Fourth, banishing friends to immortals, 90% of the tickets are charged. Such as Wu Yue et al.
Fifth, for friends who banished themselves to immortals, the admission fee is 99%, such as Chun Yuyue and others.
Six, ordinary people, buy tickets at the original price. One hundred thousand dollars per person each time.
Sixth, banishing immortals to sworn enemies will not allow them to enter even if they want to pay money. Such as the Huns, Donghu people, Wang family, Zhao Gao, dogs, etc.
7. If you buy tickets on credit, you will only be charged 3% interest.
8. You can purchase a monthly pass. After the purchase is successful, you will directly become a friend of the banished immortal and enjoy a 90% discount.
9. Purchase an annual ticket and be directly upgraded to a descendant of the Exalted Immortal. The ticket fee is only 50%.
Zhao Teng became more and more speechless as he watched, and almost vomited blood at the end: "You spend money to buy annual passes, and then become Huaiguzi's descendant? Only a lunatic would do this, right?"
The craftsman asked with a smile: "Sir, do you buy an annual pass?"
Zhao Teng said calmly: "No need, I will only buy it on credit once."
Takuto nodded and took out another piece of paper. This is an IOU written long ago. Zhao Teng took the brush and wrote his name on it.
Then, a child took Zhao Teng into a room.
Zhao Teng waited for a moment, and Li Shui came with a spring breeze on his face. He bowed his hands to Zhao Teng and said, "Welcome, you are most welcome."
Zhao Teng chuckled: "I just gave you one hundred thousand dollars, so of course you want to welcome it."
Li Shui was stunned for a moment and said: "Is this happening? Don't be angry, Mr. Zhao. I will inform the craftsman immediately. From today on, you are my best friend. You can go straight in without spending money."
Zhao Teng quickly waved his hand and said, "No need. I like spending money."
Li Shuigan laughed, gave a thumbs up and said, "This hobby is so grand."
Zhao Teng cleared his throat and said, "I was summoned to the palace just now. It depends on your majesty's intention to abolish the patent office."
Li Shui was stunned: "Why is this?"
Zhao Teng said: "It seems that someone wrote to Your Majesty, saying that the people of the Qin Dynasty have not yet opened up. The patent law is out of date. It will be more appropriate to implement this method ten years later. He also said that it is better to abolish the patent office so that you can calm down and refine it as soon as possible. An elixir. If any magic comes out, your majesty will give you a reward. In this way, you don’t have to rack your brains, calculate costs and profits, and rack your brains to do business, which will only waste your energy."
Li Shui frowned and said, "What do you think, Brother Zhao?"
Zhao Teng smiled and said, "I rushed here non-stop to tell you the news, and I have already made my attitude clear."
Li Shui nodded. It seems that Zhao Teng is really reluctant to leave the patent office.
Zhao Teng asked: "Do you have any good ideas?"
Li Shui smiled: "When soldiers come, we will be able to block it, and when water comes, the soil will cover us up. Since the other party says that the people are not wise enough to set up a patent office, then as long as someone applies for a patent, this statement will be self-defeating."
Zhao Teng said: "The people of the Qin Dynasty are dull, and the scholars only focus on laws, eloquence, and articles. There is only one person in ten thousand who can apply for a patent. In a hurry, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for such a person."
Li Shui said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, I will arrange for someone to pretend to be a common person and apply for a patent."
Zhao Teng thought for a moment, then nodded. But he looked at Li Shui strangely: "You can come up with an immortal technique in just a moment?"
Li Shui said modestly: "It's just a small skill."
After sending Zhao Teng away, Li Shui immediately found Cang Fu.
Li Shui said: "You have been working hard here for a while. The last time there was a fire in the farmland, you fought hard to save it and almost died. I have always valued you."
Cang Fu looked at Li Shui nervously, not knowing what he was going to do.
Li Shui asked again: "Why have I never seen your son?"
Cano said: "The villain has never married a wife, so naturally he has no sons."
Li Shui was stunned for a moment: "Why don't you get a wife and have children?"
Cang Fu smiled bitterly: "I am a poor man with five brothers. There was a famine and three of them died of starvation. Only two are left. How can I afford a wife if I don't have enough to eat?"
"My younger brother and I lived frugally and spent many years, and finally saved a sum of money. But at that time, I was already fifty years old. At this age, there was no need to marry a wife and have children. So I simply gave my younger brother Married a wife."
"Decades ago, I had a nephew. This nephew was loyal and filial. He promised that he would take care of me when I grow old."
At this point, Cano laughed: "But there's no need for it now. Since the adults came, I've made a lot of money, so I shouldn't have to worry about it for the rest of my life."
Li Shui asked: "Then why don't you, your nephew, work in Shangjun's courtyard?"
Cang Fu said: "A few years ago, my nephew went to help people plow the fields near Xicheng. It is said that the rent of the fields there is lower. Besides, the villain does not dare to recruit people indiscriminately without the permission of the adults. If you lead If some bad guys come, you will regret it."
Li Shui knew that Cang Fu still had lingering fears about Er Hu and San Hu.
He thought for a while and said, "Are you sure that your nephew is a loyal and filial person?"
Cano said: "This is natural. When I was poor, I was old and frail, and it was this nephew who helped me."
Li Shui hummed and said, "Call him back. I will give him a fortune."
Cang Fu looked at Li Shui with surprise. He didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he nodded in agreement, and then went out to find someone to deliver the letter.
Li Shui found Xiangli Zhu and saw that Xiangli Zhu was still studying papermaking.
Li Shui said: "I have another idea."
Xianglizhu said: "Do you have the idea, or does the master behind you have the idea?"
Li Shui said: "It's all the same. Let me tell you. There is a thing in the world called an iron pot. If it can be made, you can stir-fry it to make dishes that are extremely delicious. Do you want to study it?" Baidu "I Read the latest chapters of "Becoming a God and a Hero in the Qin Dynasty" for free as soon as possible.
