Chapter 1501: There Must Be a Bucket
Han Yi didn't joke, he took this trademark back, and let Sang Mu use this trademark in an all-round way, in fact, with his knowledge, he can do better, but he likes this trademark, because he lives in the contemporary era.
Compared with many things, this matter is more gratifying to him, and in a short period of time, someone has keenly captured the business opportunities and put them into practice, which fully shows that the business wisdom of the Chinese nation has been opened. As he said to Li Hong, a truly strong country can meet all its needs in a short period of time, and if this cannot be satisfied, then it cannot be satisfied, and this country can not be talked about being strong.
With the launch of a new trademark in Fengfeilou, the movement of intellectual property rights has also been pushed to a peak.
Merchants are starting to conceive their own trademarks, or hire someone to design them, or design their own, from the initial apprehension, to the excitement of today, when they imagine that they can see their own trademark products all over the country, it is really exciting.
The household department also ushered in the busiest period of this year, because this trademark registration, the trademark is only a beginning, there are too many contents to be reviewed, and compared with the original Guanzhong Group, Shandong Group registration, this time the people behind the scenes have come to the forefront, this change is very meaningful, why these people behind the scenes refused to come forward, is that they think that the businessman is lowly, he is a nobleman, too embarrassing to come forward, but only a few years, their thinking has changed a lot, Because now the power of merchants is gradually becoming stronger, and they have won the reputation of the people, because merchants have brought jobs, and there are too many people in Chang'an who do not have land, and they are very grateful to merchants, including women.
Of course, it was some young people who came forward, and it was impossible for the older generation to come forward, they just relaxed a little, allowing their children and grandchildren to do business, the nobles also needed money, and the merchants made so much money, but they put the resources and didn't use them, isn't it stupid.
Han Yi also canceled the vacation of everyone in the household department, and the entire household department went all out, and invited some Jiupin academicians from the Sixth Academy of the Sage to help, of course, they were involved in just what some officials should do, which made many Jinshi and first candidates very depressed, Jiupin academicians are really happy, and they have the opportunity to train, and they are still waiting for vacancies.
In fact, it is really the luck of these nine academicians, caught up with a good time, now the development of industry and commerce is too fast, too rapid, if it is not standardized now, it will be more difficult to standardize in the future, in fact, this is also for the next step of the outbreak of industry and commerce, to lay a solid foundation.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the five pickle workshops were all selected, but none of them ate alone, they were all united with each other, including Xiaopang, who also cooperated with the first floor, because they had to buy the workshop, which required a lot of money, not that they couldn't afford it, but the industry had not yet developed, and businessmen did not dare to risk investing too much money to unite others, so they could reduce some pressure, and if it was as Han Yi said at the beginning, then even if it was united, the profit would not be low.
In addition, Chang'an also set up two major printing workshops, the first of which was the establishment of the Shandong Group headed by Cui, Lu, Zheng and Wang, and the second was the Guanzhong nobles headed by Wei, Pei, Liu and Xue. The difference is that the Shandong Group is the transportation of the Shandong Group, but it is the establishment of a sub-group under it, and the Guanzhong Group is not involved, because the Yuan family does not have much interest in this industry, the Yuan family seeks benefits, and the cultural impact is really very light, and they are not willing to be in the limelight, they are the leading boss of the Guanzhong Group, they do not participate, and other members of the Guanzhong Group will naturally give up, or be established with others.
As soon as this news came out, the rest of those who had an idea immediately dispelled this idea, and so far, plus Feng Fei Lou, there are only three in total.
The reason is very simple, the scholars are all members of these families, and their reputation is so high, so in the future, the first choice will definitely be these two, which are simply national inspection-free products, trustworthy, and there is a Fengfeilou over there, and there is no interest in squeezing in, it is better to invest money in other aspects, the profits of this printing workshop are slow to return, and it is relatively long. In fact, only these nobles can do it, because publishing a book is to pay attention to technology and have vision, and without vision, you will lose as much as you want.
It is equivalent to that the printing industry will be monopolized by these three, so in the future, the word piracy will definitely be used in China, because the prestige of the three of them together is unprecedentedly high, and the strength is also very strong, who dares to pirate their books, that is not looking for death, and their reputation can also quickly popularize the idea of knowledge products, when people have this kind of thinking, then the possibility of piracy will only become less and less.
Because the Chinese nation is still very particular about this etiquette and human ethics, Confucianism has laid a very good foundation in this regard, and the basic moral values are still there.
On the day they registered, they signed a contract with Feng Feilou for the supply of ink and paper, Han Yi was very happy about this, and gave them a very low price, because from the perspective of Han Yi's interests, how much money can be made from printing books, I really don't look at it, intellectual property rights are what he values most, and the three of them monopolize the printing industry, and they can popularize intellectual property rights very quickly.
However, this is something that the ministers of the court and the central government did not expect, you must know that the imperial court has always attached great importance to public opinion, even if it is to control public opinion like the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it is also a kind of attention, how can the imperial court not pay attention to this printing press.
The Hall of Politics.
Wei Siqian, Du Zhenglun, Lu Chengqing, Han Yi, Xu Jingzong, and Li Yifu sat among them.
Xu Jingzong said: "I am looking for you to come here today, there is one thing I want to discuss with you, I think it is possible to open a printing workshop in the name of the imperial court." β
Lu Chengqing frowned and asked, "I don't know why Xu Shizhong did this?" β
Xu Jingzong said: "This was proposed by the scholars of Hongwenguan, and this printing workshop can be dedicated to publishing articles and books for officials in the DPRK and China, and so on. And I have always believed that the imperial court should have a newspaper similar to the Datang Daily, as an official use, so that the people can know some of the policies of the imperial court in time, instead of using the Datang Daily to say it. β
Han Yi frowned slightly when he heard this, this Xu Jingzong didn't mention it sooner or later, but at this time, there was only one reason, that is, because the Shandong Group and the Guanzhong nobles were involved in the printing workshop, he didn't want the nobles to continue to dominate public opinion, so he hoped to use the imperial court to suppress these two parties.
Lu Chengqing shook his head and said, "I don't approve of this." This is a business, and if the imperial court wants to do this, it is to compete with the people for profit, which will undermine the policy that my Datang has always had. β
Xu Jingzong said: "Lu Shangshu is an exaggeration, but it is just a printing shop, how much profit is there, the old man has never thought of making a profit from it, the old man just thinks that the imperial court should have a printing shop." β
Lu Chengqing said: "It's not a question of how much, once this mouth is opened, there will be wine workshops, salt workshops, and so on in the future." β
Xu Jingzong was displeased when he heard this, and said, "Lu Shangshu, I know that your Shandong Shi clan has just registered a printing workshop ....... β
Without waiting for Xu Jingzong to finish speaking, Lu Chengqing said: "If Xu Zhongshu says so, I would rather let our Lu family withdraw from this printing shop, and I don't want the court to compete with the people for profit, Taizong Shengshang mentioned at the beginning that the country should follow the idea of hiding wealth from the people, the Sui Dynasty court is strong, but the people have no money, what is the result, everyone has also seen that the stability of a country is based on the stability of the people, the people have enough food and clothing, the country is naturally stable, the treasury is full, and the people are displaced, and the country will perish." β
This is his political philosophy, and it is also the traditional idea of Confucianism.
Xu Jingzong knows this, but he can't, because this is the mainstream idea of the court today, the most interesting point in Chinese history is that it will definitely learn the lessons of the demise of the previous dynasty, the Sui Dynasty court is quite rich, the Tang Dynasty can survive, mainly inherit the wealth of the Sui Dynasty court, Zhenguan In the early years, the people were so poor that they had the money to pay taxes, so Xu Jingzong asked the rest of the people: "What do you think?" β
Of course, Wei Siqian is on Lu Chengqing's side, Li Yifu is of course on Xu Jingzong's side, and Du Zhenglun remains neutral, because Du Zhenglun is a Zhongshu order, and if the imperial court does this, it will definitely expand the influence of the three provinces, which is also very beneficial to him, but at the same time he doesn't want to stand with Li Yifu, so he remains neutral.
Therefore, everyone's eyes are naturally focused on Han Yi, now it is two to two, and this requires money, without the nod of the household department, who allocates money to print books for you, Han Yi's opinion is very crucial.
Han Yi groaned for a while, and said: "Actually, I think everyone is very reasonable, the imperial court can't do business, a very realistic problem, the imperial court does business with the money of the treasury, and private individuals take their own money, compare their hearts to their hearts, not my money, of course I don't care, so the imperial court will probably lose ......money when it trades." β
Xu Jingzong frowned, you kid is too faceless, the old man also supported you in this matter at the beginning! You'll have to repay me. Just as he was about to speak, Han Yi suddenly said, "Xu Zhongshu, can you listen to me first." β
Xu Jingzong was stunned for a moment and said, "Listen to me." β
"Thank you!" Han Yi continued: "But at the same time, I think that the imperial court should have its own newspaper, which is specially used to inform the people of some policies of the imperial court, so as to avoid false rumors, and some articles from the Hongwen Pavilion can also be published on it, this does not matter whether it makes money or not, even if it is a loss, it does not matter, after all, its role has exceeded the transaction itself." I am in favor of the imperial court owning a newspaper, but I am not in favor of profit-oriented businesses such as printing books. β
Du Zhenglun nodded and said, "Han Shangshu is reasonable, I agree with this." β
The reason why Xu Jingzong did this was not to make money from it, he just didn't want public opinion to be controlled by the aristocracy, and the newspaper had been able to help him achieve this goal, so he also nodded and agreed.
Lu Chengqing opposes competing with the people for profit, and the newspaper is issued as a kind of notice, so he has no objection to this.
On the contrary, Han Yi didn't really want the court to speak out, otherwise, he would have done it a long time ago, but this is the feudal era, there must be an official report, he knows that this can't be stopped, and it can be regarded as a return to Xu Jingzong's support for intellectual property rights, in addition to fighting with each other, the rest is the exchange of interests, and now that the emperor is not there, fighting and fighting, it can only achieve nothing, because everyone is equal, and if they want to do something, they can only compromise with each other.
After this is decided, it must be handed over to the Hongwen Pavilion, which is led by the three provinces, this is a must, no department dares to compare the writing with the Hongwen Pavilion, and Han Yi has never thought about getting involved, but he is worried that now the imperial court is going to issue a newspaper, and the Datang Daily will have to change its name.
In fact, this is just a small episode for Han Yi, because his main purpose is intellectual property, and he doesn't care about it. And the affairs of the household department, he handed over to Zheng Shanxing and Zhang Daxiang to deal with, and he took the time to go to the manor he was building to have a look.
Accompanied by Kuwaki and Ono, he walked through the fog forest and came to the manor at the back.
Compared with the first time, the sense of dΓ©jΓ vu of the barren mountains and mountains, this time it gave Han Yi a ghostly feeling.
You don't feel the atmosphere of the construction at all, those buildings are located in them, there is no sense of disobedience, surrounded by thousands of red and purple flowers, cobblestone paths seem to grow under the lush grass, pavilions, ponds, pavilions, water pavilions, reflected in the green pines and cypresses; The rockery and strange stones, like static and moving, are a beautiful landscape painting.
"The proprietor, the chief of Kumagi, Ono, you are here."
An honest man came to Han Yi and said respectfully.
Han Yi smiled: "Lao Cao, did you do a good job?" β
Cao Dongnan was excited when he heard it, "Yes--- right?" The villain is afraid of --- and afraid that the proprietor is not satisfied. β
"Satisfied! I am very satisfied! Take me around. β
"Yes, yes, yes."
This grass southeast immediately walked with Han Yi inside, it seemed to be natural, but in fact, there was a lot of truth in it. This ancient architect is really different from the later generations, the architectural concept of the ancients is to pay attention to the unity of heaven and man, and the same is true for wearing clothes, do not like to destroy the original ecology to build a large number of buildings, not the same as later generations, basically bulldoze first, for example, the outer wall of the manor, not made of bricks, but shrubs, thorns, vines, but much denser than the natural one, it looks like a lush greenery, not like the outer wall at all, but this to climb in, first of all, it is very difficult, because there is no focus point, This rattan is soft, and it is estimated that it will hurt half to death.
The main feature of this estate is the hot springs and springs.
"Proprietor, this is the swimming pool that was built according to your orders." Cao Dongnan took Han Yi to a stone pond, the spring water was crystal clear, and he said: "This valley is particularly rich in water, and the water in this pond mainly comes from the spring water in the mountains, and we also use the drainage channels in the palace, there are some fine holes under this pond, and the water will flow into the fine holes, so as to keep the water in it always very clear, and at the same time, the water flowing away can moisten the soil of this manor." β
Han Yi was surprised: "You even know the drainage method of the palace?" β
Cao Dongnan nodded and said, "The villain once talked to a craftsman from the palace. β
Ono suddenly said, "Brother Han, is this pond specially used for swimming?" β
Han Yi smiled: "Do you want to try?" β
Ono said, "Is it okay?" β
Han Yi said: "If you don't mind being watched by so many people, then you can go down and swim a few laps." β
Ono looked left and right, and saw that there were still many craftsmen here, so he was a little shy when he thought about it, and shook his head and said, "Then --- better wait until next time." β
Han Yi smiled, and followed the grass southeast to the inside, this is the hot spring specially requested by Han Yi, one is semi-open, the other is closed, in the opinion of Han Yi, the traverser, this appearance is very ancient, the combination of beams and wooden boards, very simple, the inside is made of natural stones and pebbles. As for the enclosed one, it is relatively large, so it can be said to be an indoor swimming pool.
After walking around outside, Han Yi and they came to the house again, it is still the consistent style of Tang Dynasty architecture, very spacious, especially the living room, from the door to the seat, you still have to walk a while, because there is no decoration inside, so you can't see any doorway, but the architectural style outside, Han Yi likes it very much, it is very simple, and it is integrated with the mountains and forests.
"I wonder what the proprietor wants from this decoration?" Cao Dongnan asked.
This is also the purpose of him inviting Han Yi to come.
Han Yi said: "This.... You don't need to be very luxurious, but it must be comfortable. Convenient. Oh, and be sure to get a few spacious and bright study rooms, and have bookcases. When he thought that the room where all the women were workaholics, he had to do it. Cao Dongnan hurriedly wrote it down and said, "Is there anything else?" β
"Let's take a look!"
Han Yi didn't have very high requirements for these, because in his previous life, he wandered around the city when he was a child, slept everywhere, and when he grew up, he just flew around, lived in hotels, and didn't even have a nest.
Wander around the courtyard for a while.
"Huh? What is this room for? β
"Oh, it's a thatched house."
"Thatched house? Look! β
"Yes."
Cao Dongnan immediately opened the door, and it was empty, there was nothing, but it was very large, twenty or thirty square meters.
Sang Mu also exclaimed: "This thatched house is really big!" β
"I heard that the thatched house of Taiwei's family is so big, and there will be screens, curtains, and some spices to eliminate odors ...... inside." Cao Dongnan said that his mouth was foaming, but he couldn't hear the meaning of the thatched house at all, and he was stunned to say that it was more luxurious than the bedroom of Sangmu.
In fact, Cao Dongnan helped Han Yi build a manor, with a grateful heart, he can have today, all because of Han Yi, to be able to build a manor for Han Yi, he feels that it is an honor, he does everything according to the best, the stones of the pool outside, that are all selected by thousands of people, and Sangmu is very happy to allocate money, so it just looks simple.
Because Han Yi lives in the Xiao family, the thatched house is indeed very luxurious, but it is not so big, he looked at the thatched house thoughtfully, and said nothing.
Cao Dongnan saw that Han Yi didn't say a word, and asked cautiously: "Owner, do you think there is anything wrong with this thatched house, just say it." β
Han Yi said: "You haven't thought about where the feces are dumped? β
Cao Dongnan was stunned, there is a special plan in the city, and someone will come to transport these manure as fertilizer every day, and the township will directly use it as fertilizer, and this is not the city, nor the township, and it is not easy to transport it out, and it is impossible for people to transport it every day. He didn't say it, but the meaning was also very obvious, this barren mountain and wilderness, you can fall wherever you like.
Han Yi thought to himself, if he poured it casually, one day he would stink around it, and said thoughtfully: "It seems that there is only one way." β
Cao Dongnan said: "What way?" β
"Flush toilet."
"Flush toilet?"
Han Yi nodded and said, "This thatched house will not move for now, it may have to go through a major transformation." β
