"Where is Xu Duo?"

"The little people are here." Xu Duo stepped forward and saluted.

"Compared with red bricks, how much does it cost?" Yang Yu asked.

"His Royal Highness the King of Qiqi, blue bricks take a little longer and consume more fuel than red bricks. Red bricks are relatively cheaper, in terms of the total cost, red bricks are cheaper than green bricks. "

"Thirty percent."

Su Sheng exclaimed. In his opinion, there is little difference between red bricks and green bricks, if the quality and function of a thing are not much different, if it is cheaper, the impact on the expensive side is quite large.

"Do you remember how to make red bricks?" Yang Yu looked at Xu Duo expectantly.

"The little people will never forget." Xu Duo said with some embarrassment.

"Hee-hee."

Yang Ji'er covered her mouth and laughed when she heard this, making Xu Duo even more embarrassed.

"This king needs this recipe now, you can make a price!" Yang Yu said directly.

"His Royal Highness the Acting King has killed the villain, His Royal Highness the Acting King has taken a fancy to the small people's brick-burning recipe, that is the blessing of the small people, how can he ask His Royal Highness the Acting King for money!" Xu Duo panicked.

Yang Yu was stunned for a while, and there was no money to give.

"Everything in the world is royal, and the method of making red bricks originally belonged to His Royal Highness, if you want to make up for Xu Duo, you can reward him." Su Sheng saw Yang Yu's doubts and explained.

After Su Sheng's explanation, Yang Yu understood the meaning, there is no protection of intellectual property rights in this era, the emperor does not have to spend money, and the royal family takes the things of ordinary people, which is a grace to you, and if you feel that you don't want to go, you can just reward something.

What kind of bullshit truth is this, it seems that the world is royal, and Yang Yu disagrees with this point of view.

But when I think about it, I have a vested interest now, and it seems to be pretty good.

"This king will not ask for your things for nothing, you want something." As a modern person, Yang Yu certainly wouldn't covet his little cheapness.

"The little people want nothing more! Originally, Xiaomin's burning of red bricks was also a temporary mistake, and he was ridiculed by the villagers. It's too late for Xiaomin to thank you? If there is any other thought, it is a lack of greed. Xu Duo said firmly, his tone revealing sincerity.

"Merit is not rewarded, this is not the character of this king! So look at the brick road that this king has built. Yang Yu asked, pointing to the brick road.

"His Royal Highness the Acting King is wise, the brick road is durable, can be used on sunny and rainy days, and greatly facilitates business and travel exchanges, which can be described as benefiting the country and the people, and is a great masterpiece." Xu Duo flattered.

"Since it's such a good thing, of course it needs to be built a lot. Moreover, the displaced people are about to enter Jingzhao County in a steady stream, and it is imperative to build a large number of brick roads! Yang Yu paused and continued.

"A large number of brick road construction, must need a large number of bricks, if all the use of green bricks, the cost is too high, red bricks to replace green bricks is the general trend, the imperial court is about to set up a disaster relief department, it is better for you to enter the disaster relief department to be responsible for the scheduling and quality control of bricks!"

Xu Duo was stunned and let himself enter the Disaster Relief Division, isn't that an official? Did you hear it wrong?

A moment ago, he was still a brick-burning young master who was ridiculed, but in a blink of an eye, he entered the Disaster Relief Department and became an official!

"Don't you want to?" Yang Jier said mischievously on the side.

"Yes, of course." Xu Duo hurriedly responded, "His Royal Highness Xie Acting King, Xie Lu Xie Izumo Princess." ”

Xu Duo usually dresses up as a showman and usually loves to read, but unfortunately he is a businessman's son and cannot participate in the imperial examination, which is the regret of his life, and he did not expect that an unintentional mistake made his life have a shocking reversal.

His destined lifelong brick-burning career allowed him to step into the ranks of officials. Although he still doesn't know how many products he is, whether he is an official or an official.

"Tomorrow the Disaster Relief Division will be established, you can go there to report, this secret recipe for firing red bricks will belong to the Disaster Relief Division in the future, of course, this secret recipe will be kept by you, if there is a kiln factory that wants to fire red bricks, you can provide the secret recipe, provided that they keep it secret, and pay 50,000 bricks as a patent fee." Yang Yu commanded.

"What is a royalty?" Yang Jier is like a curious baby, asking if she doesn't understand.

Xu Duo and Su Sheng also looked at Yang Yu in confusion, no one had heard of this word before.

"The patent, that is, this fired red brick, is an invention of Xu Duo, it is the fruit of his labor, if others use this secret recipe, of course, they must pay Xu Duo a certain remuneration." Yang Yu strives to explain in the simplest terms.

Su Sheng nodded, it was true, and after thinking about it, he had questions again.

"What if another person also made the red brick himself, and didn't steal Xu Duo's secret recipe, but also found it out by himself?"

"That's it!" Xu Duo and Yang Ji'er nodded.

"Then I'm sorry, after all, first come, first come! The research that came out later counted him as unlucky. Yang Yu said with a smile.

"Of course, this patent also has a term of interest, let's set it at 20 years!"

The "Patent Law", known as one of the magic weapons of the Great Sui Dynasty, was settled in a few words by Yang Yu in this place.

"That's fine, fair." Yang Jier said, don't look at her usual hip-hop and hip-hop, she is not inferior to anyone when she is shrewd.

……

"His Royal Highness the Acting King, Weichen is late." The head of the Ministry of Works, Heihiro Hiroshi, was led by the guards and came to the side.

"What are you doing here?" Yang Ji'er wondered.

"Of course they're here to pay us, don't you see that the brick merchant over there is still waiting to settle the bill." Yang Yu pointed to a dozen merchants under the city gate and said with a smile.

More than a dozen merchants under the city gate were waiting leisurely, and as early as the beginning of the brick pulling, the guards had already said that they would pay the bill according to the market price. No one is worried that the royal family will pay their debts.

"Did you bring anything?"

"Your Royal Highness, please take a look."

Ping Honggui stretched out his hand, and saw a long convoy of about fifty four-wheeled carriages, running out of the city, and lined up on the brick road for a long, long time.

At this time, the four-wheeled carriage at the front slowly came out of the line, and several guards were loading sacks on it, which were filled with sand.

The two guards carried a sack together, and looking at their heavy appearance, they knew that the sack was not light.

The first car was loaded with ten sacks, a craftsman planted a red flag behind him, and with a shout from the coachman, the two horses began to exert force, and the car started quickly.

With the rapid movement of the vehicle, the flag behind the car was still fluttering, and four golden characters appeared in everyone's sight.

"A thousand pounds." One exclaimed.

Immediately the others also began to make noise, a thousand catties is not a heavy number, and ordinary carriages can also be pulled.

But that's just pulling, slow like a snail. And it was impossible to gallop like a four-wheeled carriage on a brick road.

Immediately, the second car also began to run, and a bright red flag was still flying behind it.

"Fifteen hundred pounds." The crowd exclaimed again.

"Two thousand pounds."

……

"Two thousand five hundred pounds."

Ten horse-drawn carriages rushed out in a row, and the carrying capacity of the carriage had increased to 2,500 catties, which was already the limit of the wooden carriage.

With such a heavy carriage overweight, the brick road remained undamaged.

Looking at the reactions of the people on both sides, Yang Yu and Pinghonggui glanced at each other, and this time the four-wheeled carriage fired the first shot.

The forty four-wheeled carriages in the back were put forward for ten taels to be tried, and the last thirty carriages began to be sold, each with a price tag of thirty yuan.

Such a high price is unattainable for ordinary people, but for those children of the family in Daxing, it is just a drop in the bucket, but it was snatched up in a short period of time, and the remaining twenty trial carriages were also snapped up.

Fifty wagons were sold for a total of fifteen hundred, and after paying the brick merchants three hundred, there were still 1,200 tains left.

Ping Honggui handed over all the money of 1,200 guan to Su Sheng, as a fund to continue to build the road, reluctant to let the child can't trap the wolf, only the longer the brick road is built, the more popular his Silun carriage will be, and then his harvest will be far more than 1,200 guan.

After Ping Honggui left, Su Sheng calculated the account, and it seemed that His Royal Highness the Acting King had built a five-mile brick road today, not only did he not spend money, but he earned 1,200 yuan.

What the hell is going on in this world! Su Sheng was a little stunned.
