Mi Zhu found Xie Huan in the end, for businessmen, time is money, and arrived in Qiyue Township in the evening of the same day. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The mountain road had just been repaired, allowing two wagons to go hand in hand, the result of nearly a month of employing thousands of people. If it weren't for leveling the road and digging up those tree stumps, I'm afraid that the time could be further compressed.

Mi Zhu's impression of Qiyue Township comes mainly from rumors and inquired news, it is said that it was once a village of mountain people, and Li Yu once served as the village chief here. In the past, when the autonomous region was first established, Li Yu only planned to use the hundreds of miles around Qiyue Township as the foundation for his life, but he didn't want to give such a large area today.

So Qiyue Town naturally seemed a lot more chicken. Considering that the scale of the town is not large, the population is not large, and the transportation is inconvenient in the deep mountains, Qiyue Town, which was originally used as the administrative office of the autonomous region, was changed back to Qiyue Township, and the administrative office was relocated to the current Taoyuan Town.

In any case, it was originally built according to the standards of the administrative office, and it is not known how it was built.

When the carriage came to the periphery of Qiyue Town, it was discovered that this Qiyue Town was indeed built according to the standards of the city. There is a dock fort on all four sides of the city, but now it is used as a city gate, and some buildings have been demolished and some buildings have been added, making these dock forts a bit similar to the inner city walls, increasing the difficulty of the siege.

At the same time, at the corner of the wall where the two dock forts were connected, a watchtower was arranged, which would be turned into an arrow tower if necessary. The walls were built in full accordance with the standards of the county, and even more so.

It is better to say that this is a town, but it is better to say that it is a military stronghold, and it is located in the deep mountains, and if you want to capture this stronghold, I am afraid that it will not work without tens of thousands of troops.

"I see, I'm afraid that Li Yu was even ready to be used as an anti-thief crusade at the beginning!" Just look at the layout of this town, Li Yu's thoughts are almost exposed.

However, at that time, he was just a village chief, and he was still the village chief of a group of mountain people, even if he bought the land here, as long as he lost the identity of the Li family in Longxi, then he might still face the encroachment of the government and the family.

From Qiyue Town to Taoyuan Town, it actually reflects Li Yu's changing mental journey.

"Actually, it's not easy for him to do this......" Mi Zhu hadn't entered the city yet, but he couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the tall and thick dock fort.

With his ID card, the city guards will naturally let him in. There is also an inn here, but unfortunately the single rooms are already full, only two quadruple rooms, but the owner said that if you want to take a bath, there are public baths in the city, and you can also ask someone to rub your back and get your nails done for a little money.

There are no public bathhouses this year, and Mi Zhu sounds fresh and has a feeling that he wants to try it. Fortunately, he didn't get carried away, signaled the servant to settle down, and directly asked for the direction, and walked directly towards Xie Huan's shop.

The urban area of Qiyue Township is actually not big, and it can be almost reached in ten or twenty minutes farther away. Not to mention that Xie Huan is still Li Yu's sister-in-law, the store he chose is naturally on the main road in the city, and it can be found only five minutes away from the inn.

On the way, Mi Zhu rarely had a little leisure to look at the surrounding buildings.

Only to find that most of the buildings facing the street here are two-story buildings, a few three-story buildings, and the whole building seems to be brick and stone, and there are few civil engineering structures. This surprised Mi Zhu how much egg white glutinous rice was needed to build these buildings.

You must know that the main binders in these years, before the emergence of cement, were still the mainstream of egg whites and glutinous rice.

However, the uniform style also has the advantage of uniformity, it looks very neat, and the entire main road seems to be a scenic line. Not to mention the plants on both sides of the road, he had a hard time figuring out why he wanted to plant them in the city.

Fortunately, it's not hard to guess, presumably to increase the beauty of the city, right? Indeed, this arrangement also makes him feel comfortable, and if he lives here, it is also freehand to walk along the road at night.

On the way, I happened to see the existence of a public toilet, and after asking, I found out that it is a place for people to go to the toilet. The toilet is built in an alley, avoiding the main road, and there are special people who clean it in three shifts, so that the smell will not escape.

This design is very intimate, otherwise it would be quite pitiful to suddenly have abdominal pain in the city, but you can't find a convenient place. Ordinary people may be able to find a hidden place to make do with it, but it seems that they will be detained for defecating in the open here.

To put it simply, it is two days of detention before being released, or paying a large health fine to bail out.

Hearing this, Mi Zhu couldn't help but be a little depressed, did Li Yu manage too much? However, looking at the clean and hygienic surroundings, I feel that this makes some sense.

Finally, he came to the store opened by Xie Huan, and after more than a month of operation, with Li Yu's continuous investment, it has expanded to three stores, becoming a department store with daily groceries, grain and oil, furniture and various gadgets.

Even the roof part of the building was bought to serve as a warehouse and a dormitory for guards. Judging from the layout and furnishings of the store, the type of goods, etc., it has surpassed their Mi's largest store in Xuzhou.

is worthy of Li Yu's sister-in-law, and there are people on it who are different...... Mi Zhu couldn't help but sigh.

"May I ask if the store is there?" Mi Zhu casually looked in the store, and casually found a teenage girl and asked.

This girl is pretending to be average, and she is constantly busy at the moment, and she looks like a buddy. Mi Zhu even wondered what Xie Huan thought, why did he hire such a young guy to move and carry it over?

"You're looking for me?" But she didn't want the girl to suddenly reply, so frightened that Mi Zhu immediately swallowed all her thoughts.

Mi Zhu knew that Xie Huan was a woman, but she didn't know how old she was, and she thought she was in her twenties, but she didn't expect to be so much in her teens, why did Li Yu trust her so much and hand over such an important chamber of commerce to her?

"I've seen Xie Dianjia, a certain is Mi Zhu, the young master of the Xuzhou Mi Chamber of Commerce......" Under Xie Huan's gaze, Mi Zhu quickly came back to his senses, and then introduced himself.

"I see, I'm here to talk about business, right? Come with me to the office, it's not a good place here! Xie Huan didn't wait for him to finish before he knew what he meant, turned around and walked towards the inner room, and motioned for Mi Zhu to follow.

Isn't this about being alone with men and widows? Mi Zhu couldn't help but be depressed, but he still followed. As for whether there is still a little expectation or something in my heart, I don't know.

When I got to the office, I found that there were two other men and a woman here, who were not lonely men and widows. Among them, the woman seems to be a shopkeeper, constantly calculating something; The male is like a guard, standing there motionless, but after Mi Zhu came in, he could feel a trace of murderous aura emanating from him, he was a guy who had seen blood!

"Give this owner a copy of the tradable list!" Xie Huan said directly to the woman, who raised his head and looked at Mi Zhu when he heard this, and then took a roster in the drawer and handed it to him.

"This is our existing technology and special products, which also have detailed instructions and quotations, and even some operational measures to ensure the interests of Mi Dongjia, if there is any doubt, do not hesitate to ask!" Xie Huan pointed to the roster and said.

Mi Zhu thanked him, and then took over the roster, probably knowing in his heart. Now that everything has been fixed, even a person of Xie Huan's age can cope with it, right? Not to mention, there is also this shopkeeper on the side!

There are a lot of crops in the list, and the three crops that he pays the most attention to are the ones that can have large yields according to treatment. Mi Zhu really wonders if there is something wrong with this, this has such a high yield?

Fortunately, some points of attention were explained later, only to know that this thing can be used as auxiliary food but not as a staple food, and the potatoes that grow sprouts are poisonous and need to cut off the part of the sprouts before they can eat anything.

However, as for the above, it is suitable for planting in land with low fertility, and it can also be made into vermicelli and pastries, and even used to make wine. The first two pages basically introduce these three crops, as well as the corresponding technologies.

As for the future, there is also a kind of thing called pumpkin, which is also very productive according to the data, and can be used for both meals and meals. There's also something called peanuts, which can be used to extract oil, which makes him breathe shorter.

Naturally, it comes with the most advanced oil extraction technology and supporting equipment, which can improve the oil yield and pressing efficiency according to the manual. If the information is correct, this is definitely a good business.

So much so that Mi Zhu even forgot to look at papermaking and furniture-making techniques. Then again, furniture can be made by a dedicated carpenter, and the technical difficulty is not high. Only papermaking is worth exploring in depth.

Fortunately, he didn't forget his original intention of coming, so he flipped through it, and sure enough, he saw papermaking.

"What does this royalty mean?" Mi Zhu soon saw an unfamiliar word, and the key is that this patent fee is unique. Vertical calculations are not included in the profit sharing.

"Our craftsmen invented this technology, and according to the prefectural ordinance, they have the patent rights to this invention. Within 10 years, anyone who wants to use this technology will have to pay artisan royalties.

The meaning of the prefectural decree is very clear: if the craftsmen work hard to study the technology, but do not have any income, then they will inevitably put away the technology and refuse to pass it on, and there is a possibility that it will be lost over time. or stolen by outsiders, and in the end, the craftsman himself will end up with nothing.

In order to encourage craftsmen to research new technologies and have the courage to explore new technologies, patent periods of different years are set according to the situation of the technology. The minimum is five years and the maximum is twenty years.

Of course, if you are sure that your technology will not be known to others, you can also not apply for patent protection. At present, it is recorded in the register and has been added to patent protection.

Here in the autonomous region, these technologies will be protected, and when we go outside, we hope that all our partners will work with us to protect them, otherwise we will have the right to hold them accountable. Xie Huan didn't know how many times he had said it, but he explained it skillfully.

"How can we be sure that our collaborators in the field will comply with this patent?" Mi Zhu immediately thought of a key question.

"Half of this patent fee is owned by the local government, but there is no patent income in Hanlu, in other words, it can be used as private income for the county guard or the assassin...... Xie Huan said with a smile.

Mi Zhu immediately had nothing to say, don't look at a small sum of money, but for example, something like paper, mass manufacturing will definitely generate a lot of patent fees. Not to mention that there are other benefits, which are also astronomical. If it becomes the private income of the Thorn History, I am afraid that the Thorn History will definitely become a hardcore supporter of the patent, and whoever dares to start here will be equivalent to having trouble with him.

You don't have to think about it to know that if the Mi family doesn't comply, I'm afraid that the history of Xuzhou Thorn will also turn around and deny people! Not to mention, there is a friendship from Li Yu behind this, and even if there is something better in the future, maybe there will be a share of them?

Removing these things, the meaning behind this is also extraordinary. In the long run, craftsmen will inevitably continue to study new technologies and new skills, and all kinds of things that benefit the country and the people will be invented...... Seems to be the word, right? In this way, daily life, office and travel will become more and more convenient in the future!

"Slowly, according to the concept of this patent law, those craftsmen don't even need to work, they just need to bury their heads in researching things, I'm afraid they can all make a fortune, right?" Mi Zhu immediately realized a problem.

This is the concept of the so-called research institute, and the autonomous region also has special research institutes that provide facilities and raw materials for research for competent craftsmen. As new technologies are developed, both the craftsmen and the government behind the institute will benefit. At the same time, the institute can also evaluate the technology to be researched by the craftsman, and the technology of each research institute is shared to ensure that valuable time is not wasted by duplicating research. Xie Huan naturally knew how to answer.

"I see, it's a stroke of genius!" Mi Zhu couldn't help but sigh.

"In any case, cooperating with us is naturally a win-win effect. You make money, we make money, and the craftsmen and officials who support us behind the scenes also get benefits, and this is the best result! Xie Huan said with a smile.

"It's just that the proportion of technical cooperation is ......?" Mi Zhu asked about the proportion on the list, after all, the cooperation in opening a paper mill and a furniture factory or something, actually has to share 30% of the profits to the autonomous region, this proportion is a bit too high.

You must know that forty percent of the money they make is for Xuzhou Assassin Shi, Beijia and Duwei, in other words, it is equivalent to half of the account with Li Yu.

"That's not what I said, you have to know the ...... of this technology," Xie Huan began to fool around, making full use of what she had learned. Earlier, the young master of the Gu family was also fooled by her, and finally signed the agreement happily, Mi Zhu was only sixteen years old in the end, and he was not as mature as he was later, so he was naturally stunned.

I remember that when Gu Yong left the store, he was already a little depressed when he saw that everything was black and white. With this agreement, the Gu family is not a loss, but it will make some hard-earned money, if his father sees it, I am afraid that he will not be punished heavily!

This is an agreement signed by him, the young master, and if he breaks the contract, his reputation will be ruined. For the sake of Gu Yong's reputation, his father was afraid that he had to admit this agreement.

Mi Zhu is similar, although he struggled in the end, he only increased the share to 33%, which is actually about the same overall. When I came out, I was also drenched in cold sweat, and I only felt that my entire back was soaked, and I couldn't help shouting demons in my heart.

This teenage girl is a demon girl, and she can bewitch people's hearts!

Looking at the contract signed with his name in his hand and fingerprinted, Mi Zhu couldn't help but feel depressed. I just want him to revisit or veto, but he doesn't dare. Businessmen value reputation the most, especially in this era, and it is almost impossible to do business if your reputation is ruined.

Even if he didn't agree with it, he had to acquiesce to the validity of this contract. Thankfully, the price of buying those high-yielding crops is very fair, and I just hope that it can be as high as the information says!

Reluctantly returned to the inn, although there were delicacies of the mountains and wild game at dinner, but also did not know the taste, and finally lay on the hard bed, actually felt that it was not very accustomed, it seems that after enjoying it, this person has become delicate......
