Li Qing subconsciously looked at Qin Lin when he heard his uncle's words.
For a family like theirs, money does not play a big role for them. Instead, it is a trouble.
But the name is different.
A good reputation is definitely a huge auxiliary effect for their family. At least it will make people think that their family tradition is upright.
Their family members all know about their uncle's research, and they also know that if his research can produce results, it will definitely bring a lot of fame to the family.
Li Qing also said to Qin Lin: "Boss Qin, don't worry, my brother-in-law can sign a contract with you, and you will be considered as sponsor of the research. The contract states that the patents generated by the research will belong to you."
"Besides, our family is not allowed to touch anything other than the name, otherwise it will cause trouble for ourselves."
Qin Lin still believed in Li Qing's character, and with the popularity of the villa and the number of fans, he was not worried about what tricks Li Kai would use as a watermelon researcher to cause online public opinion.
The most important thing is that the Li family is an aristocratic family that has been around for several generations. They will lose their reputation just for a watermelon, and they will not reach that level.
What he was thinking was that Li Qing could help him cover up his drinking, but Li Kai was a better tool. Who made him an expert in this field?
He not only has watermelon seeds, but also Xiangshui tribute rice seeds, and there will even be other seeds in the future.
Just how to make it look normal requires careful thought and careful planning.
Therefore, Qin Lin immediately said to Li Kai: "Mr. Li, if you want to study this watermelon, I naturally want it. Since it is considered a sponsored research, I will arrange a special bridal chamber and an office for you. There is plenty of space in the office area of the villa. "
Li Kai was more anxious about this matter than Qin Lin. When he saw Qin Lin's promise, he immediately beamed with joy: "Brother Qin, don't worry, I will definitely deal with this for you. When the time comes, you will make money and I will publish the paper." Writing books complements each other.”
The title has changed from Boss Qin to Brother Qin.
Li Kai said to Li Qing again: "I said Li Qing, why are you still standing? Go and ask someone to help me deliver the things from the institute, don't delay our business."
"..." Li Qing was speechless and rolled his eyes at his uncle, but he also took his mobile phone to make arrangements.
Li Kai eagerly said to Qin Lin: "Boss Qin, you also go and prepare the contract. Let's sign the contract quickly, which will make me feel at ease, right?"
"Okay!" Qin Lin looked at Li Kai who was more anxious than him and nodded with a smile. Then he called Gao Yaoyao and asked Gao Yaoyao to assign bridal chamber No. 1 to Li Kai on a long-term basis.
After that, he went to the office himself, found Senior Brother Chu's WeChat account, and sent a message: "Senior Brother Chu, do you have time? Help me draw up a contract."
At the same time, 20,000 yuan was transferred.
This is the fee for a senior lawyer like Brother Chu to draw up a contract.
Naturally, he didn't understand contracts such as sponsored research and patent ownership, so he still had to rely on Senior Brother Chu's expertise.
Senior Brother Chu quickly replied: "Qin Lin, your legal business needs are indeed getting bigger and bigger. Tell me, what are your requirements this time?"
Qin Lin briefly talked about the situation between himself and Li Kai, but concealed Li Kai's identity.
Senior Brother Chu replied: "Okay, I have written it all down. Now Director Robin of our law firm has to hold a meeting of senior lawyers, so I can only go back at night to help you get it out and send it to you tomorrow."
"Excuse me, Senior Brother Chu." Qin Lin replied and put down his phone.
…
One day passed.
Early the next morning, Qin Lin moved out the things in the game and transported them to the villa. Then he went to the backyard again to see the condition of the watermelon vines in the greenhouse.
As soon as he entered, he saw that Li Kai was already squatting in the small watermelon field, pouring water into it, and he didn't know what he was doing.
Seeing Qin Lin come in, Li Kai said: "Those in the greenhouse are in good condition and will bloom and pollinate soon. There won't be many of them anyway. Then I will directly pollinate them manually, and you don't need to catch any flying insects."
"Excuse me, Mr. Li." Qin Lin nodded and walked into the greenhouse. As expected, the remaining watermelon vines did not continue to wither and turn yellow. After one night, the situation became much better.
This also reassured him that he didn't have to start over and waste time planting.
It's approaching noon.
Qin Lin received the contract document from Brother Chu in the office.
He immediately downloaded and printed it out, and then went to the original hall to look for Li Kai.
in the hall.
Li Qing and Li Kai sat on the table by the window, with pieces of watermelon placed in front of them.
Judging from the dirt still on the skin of the watermelon, it can be seen that it is a melon from the watermelon patch in the backyard, cut open without washing.
But these melons were cut open, but neither of them ate them.
Li Kai sat there and stared at the watermelon.
Li Qing kept staring at Li Kai helplessly: "Uncle, I said it was a waste of you to cut the melon and not eat it."
Li Kai replied: "This watermelon is sweeter than ordinary watermelons and has a better taste. It must be that the ingredients such as citrulline, glutamic acid, arginine, phosphoric acid, and lactic acid are different from ordinary watermelons."
"...!" Li Qing was silent again. He could only remain silent about his brother-in-law's nonsense.
Seeing Qin Lin coming over with a document, he hurriedly greeted: "Boss Qin, have you prepared the contract?"
"Well, take a look at the contract." Qin Lin handed the contract and a pen to Li Qing.
"Sign it!" Li Qing handed the contract to Li Kai without even looking at it.
After Li Kai took over the contract, he only glanced at it briefly, signed it after confirming the ownership rights of the papers, academics, and works, and then returned one of them to Qin Lin: "Brother Qin, now we are Now that we have a partner, I can research with confidence.”
"It's a pleasure to cooperate." Qin Lin took over the contract with a smile. The signing with Li Kai was a bit casual, and it was simply completed.
There is indeed no need for too many situations for both parties.
After chatting with the two for a while, Qin Lin took the contract to the office and put the contract in a safe that Zhao Moqing bought for him.
Near noon, he went into the game and killed a quality 2 wild fish and two 3-pound quality 2 eels to make room.
Eels and loaches are cultivated in paddy fields, but quality 2 has never been taken out, so there is a lot of stock.
Qin Lin carried the fish and eels to the original hall, planning to cook for Li Kai himself to celebrate signing the contract!
Eels are also fish, and the fish cooking skills he gained from the game can also play an additional role in making eels.
In the hall, Li Kai was still looking at the melons and writing something down with his notes.
Qin Lin was a little confused when he saw this. This watermelon has been cut into pieces, what else is there to see?
Looking at Li Kai memorizing something seriously, it seems that he really has some skills.
Li Qing was holding the phone and chatting with Lin Liu on the phone: "Honey, you also know my uncle's character. How can you make people feel reassured? I have to keep an eye on him for a few days before I can feel reassured."
Li Kai raised his head and glared at Li Qing: "Don't use me as an excuse if you don't want to go back."
Li Qing hurriedly hung up the phone and saw Qin Lin coming in carrying fish and eels. He was surprised and said: "Boss Qin, you came here specifically to carry fish and eels. Are we going to have a good meal at noon?"
He has eaten a lot of good food at Qinglin Villa, but what he has always been thinking about is the fish feast made by Boss Qin himself.
That kind of taste is truly something that people will never forget after eating it once.
"Signing the contract is also a happy event. Let's celebrate next time in the kitchen." After saying this, Qin Lin walked towards the kitchen carrying quality 2 herring and eel.
"Boss Qin, I think you should celebrate more often." Li Qing was confirmed and followed into the kitchen with bright eyes.
Qin Lin put down the fish and eel, took the knife and started handling them.
He has never practiced any knife skills, but after acquiring fish cooking skills, he became a master at handling fish.
Li Qing watched from the side as Qin Lin handled the fish smoothly, which was a bit pleasing to the eye.
He really admired Boss Qin, who was more accomplished in wine than he was, and the fish he made was even more delicious than the dishes at Old Man Yang's Red Gate Banquet.
Now that Old Man Yang is old, everyone knows that he can no longer do the Red Gate Banquet. While everyone is feeling regretful, no one knows that this Boss Qin is as good as that Old Man Yang.
Soon, a braised fish with +3 deliciousness, +3 texture, +1 appetite, and many other effects was ready.
"Leave it to me." Li Qing stepped forward to take the fish almost immediately, took it out of the kitchen, and put it on the table outside. He said to Li Kai: "Uncle, quickly bring these melons for you. You will be lucky at noon. You can get good food as soon as you come here.”
Li Kai then put away his pen and took the watermelon aside.
Li Qing put down the braised fish and went back to the kitchen. After a while, he came out with another fish soup and steamed fish.
Putting down the fish soup and steamed fish, and seeing the braised fish still intact, he said with satisfaction: "I didn't eat it secretly, it's good."
Li Kai immediately had an opinion: "Li Qing, do you think I'm a starving ghost? I still haven't seen the world? It's just a braised fish, what's there to eat?"
Li Qing smiled and said nothing, and couldn't wait to go to the spare disinfection cabinet to get a bowl. He was very familiar with this place now.
After taking out three sets of bowls and chopsticks and dividing them, he picked up his own bowl and made a portion of fish soup. He took one sip and showed an intoxicated look on his face: "This is the taste, uncle, this meal is really good." Thanks to you."
"Li Qing, can you look like you've never seen the world over a meal?" Li Kai looked at his nephew's exaggerated appearance and shook his head.
After all, I am someone who has eaten at the Red Gate Banquet. Is it just a meal?
He also picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of braised fish for himself, put it into his mouth, and then froze.
This taste... seems to be better than the Red Gate Banquet.
Li Qing's teasing voice sounded at the same time: "Uncle, do you suddenly feel like you have never seen the world before?"
"..." Li Kai really couldn't refute this.
Who would have thought that Boss Qin’s cooking skills were so good?
Doesn't it mean that he is very knowledgeable about wine, surpassing his nephew? Why does the other party still have the energy to study cooking to such a high level?
Qin Lin also walked out with the last two dishes of eel at this time, one was fried eel, and the other was eel in a clay pot.
After he put down his things, Li Qing made room for him and gave him a bowl of fish soup: "Boss Qin, sit down."
Qin Lin sat down and took Li Qing's fish soup with a smile.
Li Kai put another piece of eel meat into his mouth, looking as intoxicated as Li Qing.
The taste is +3, the deliciousness is +3, and the food is +1. It is also a kind of enjoyment for everyone.
After finishing a bowl of fish soup, Li Kai couldn't help but look at Qin Lin and said: "Boss Qin, it would be great if you were a woman. With your cooking skills, I really want to marry you home."
Li Qing said promptly: "Boss Qin, be careful, my brother-in-law is still single at an old age."
"..." Qin Lin was suddenly stunned.
Your brother-in-law is single. Why should he be careful? Do you really think he is a woman?
However, he suddenly asked Li Qing: "Mr. Li, you said that if Xiangshui tribute rice is used to make wine, the wine will be very good, right?"
This was also a kind of temptation for him. Naturally, he had already thought of a good excuse for the origin of Xiangshui Gongmi.
Except for the Xiangshui tribute rice harvested in the paddy fields, which is of quality 2 and is kept at home for one's own consumption, the rest is sold for sale, which is actually a bit wasteful.
That's why he came up with the idea of brewing Xiangshui tribute rice.
The winery took over. Although the winery can rely on the name of Qinglin Medicinal Liquor to promote it, there must also be some ordinary wine that can be used.
That batch of old wine can hold up for a while at first, but it will eventually be used up.
If some Xiangshui Gongmilong wine can be brewed every year, even if it is only a handful, countless people will definitely flock to it. It is also a kind of style and publicity.
Li Qing was obviously taken aback by Qin Lin's bold idea: "Boss Qin, are you sure you're not joking? Is it Xiangshui Gongmi?"
That thing is extremely rare, but his family can get some every year, which is enough to satisfy his appetite.
With such a scarce quantity, who would dare to think of using Xiangshui tribute rice to make wine?
"It's Xiangshui Gongmi." Qin Lin nodded firmly.
Li Qing received this agreement and asked hurriedly: "We can make wine, but where will the Xiangshui tribute rice come from?"
"Exchange it for Qinglin medicinal wine!" Qin Lin smiled and began to make up: "Someone came to contact me and said that he had connections over Xiangshui. Someone wanted to exchange Xiangshui tribute rice for some Qinglin medicinal wine. , but the quantity of rice is not very much.”
"If I go, how can this be done?" Li Qing was directly surprised by this saucy move.
This was something he had never thought about. After all, he had neither Xiangshui Gongmi nor Qinglin medicinal wine.
But when he thought about it carefully, the name of Qinglin medicinal wine had already been announced. Everyone knew that Qinglin medicinal wine was better and more high-end than Xiangshui Gongmi.
In this case, it is possible to exchange Qinglin medicinal wine for Xiangshui tribute rice. If anyone has Xiangshui tribute rice in hand, it is really possible to exchange it.
What's more, someone comes to the door now and wants to exchange Xiangshui Gongmi for Qinglin medicinal wine. It depends on Boss Qin whether he can exchange it.
Li Kai suddenly felt like he had discovered a new continent.
There are many good things in the country, such as Xiangshui Gongmi, medicinal wines from the two inherited families, and many such rare items.
These things are difficult to obtain even with their family's status, but what if the person who owns these things wants the other person's things?
People who own these things don't all exchange things with each other like this in private, right?
The more Li Qing thought about it, the more likely it became that it was possible. Otherwise, if Qinglin medicinal wine was famous, why would someone come to his door?
This kind of doorway is really beyond his reach. No wonder it is said that rats have their own ways, and snakes have their own snake ways. If the path is wrong, you will not be able to enter either way.
As for the people and connections Qin Lin mentioned, Li Qing didn't explore it. After all, it would be bad to ask questions about some things, as it might offend a group of people.
"Can we really get Xiangshui Gongmi in exchange?" Li Qing asked again.
"It should be possible." Qin Lin said uncertainly at this time.
This is also what he wants to say, and there is no way for others to prove whether it is true or false.
Even if someone wants to ask, he doesn't have to say anything. Who do you think I want to tell you? Like Li Qing, they don't ask questions, so they are very comfortable getting along with them.
The key is that when the Xiangshui tribute rice comes out, except for the rice sent to the capital, the rest will go through many people and go to various places. As long as the quantity is controlled, there is no way for Xiangshui to confirm it.
In the future, Xiangshui seeds can also be obtained in this way. After all, they cannot be grown elsewhere, and the control of this kind of seeds is not too strict.
If the probability of triggering the mutation was cultivated, it would be because of Youcheng's good geographical environment and Li Kai's professional skills. What does it have to do with him, Qin Lin?
If this news can spread from Li Qing, it will be equivalent to completing this matter.
Tool people must play a role.
Li Qing said almost urgently: "Boss Qin, you must leave it to me when the time comes, and I will help you brew it myself. I have never drunk the wine made by Xiangshui Gongmi."
"Okay, I'll definitely let Mr. Li come." Qin Lin smiled and nodded.
Next to him, Li Kai looked at the two of them with astonishment. He naturally knew about Xiangshui Gongmi.
But what are these two people discussing? Making wine with Xiangshui tribute rice?
He would also like to drink this kind of wine.
