The official was also happy, after all, someone came to their door to register a patent on the first day, which is a good thing that has never been thought of!

After all, before today, they had discussed it internally countless times.

I thought that after fermenting among the people for a long time, maybe someone would come to try the water, but I didn't expect that it had just opened for less than two hours.

Someone had already taken the initiative to find the door with something.

"That's... You sit here for a while, and I'll get you the form, and you can fill it out and you can move on to the patent registration stage."

After all, it's not his own thing, and the middle-aged man is still a little nervous.

I only heard him speak: "My lord... Xiaomin still wants to know, how long does it take to complete the application for this registered patent? ”

The official was stunned for a moment, and then said with some embarrassment: "You wait for me here first, I'll look for it..."

The official has just been transferred from the Bureau of Commerce, and how can he, who has just figured out the patent registration process, estimate: . How long does it take to complete all those steps?

After a while, he came over again and said, "This patent registration is divided into many steps, which are patent applications. Then it will be accepted by our Patent Office.."

The man nodded in understanding, and then the official said again: "After that, it is a patent registration fee of one hundred dragon yuan, of course.. If your patent has a significant use for the national economy and people's livelihood, this fee can be completely waived. ”

The man lowered his head and looked at the two kerosene lamps in his hand, and couldn't think of much connection between this thing and the national economy and people's livelihood.

So he said embarrassedly: "My lord.. There is no problem with paying the silver, so what then? ”

"Then we just wait for our formalities to be completed, and then in about two years, you can get your patent certificate!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man didn't care about his expression, jumped up like a cat with its tail stepped on and said, "What? Two years? After such a long time, what is the use of my patent... Why is it so long! ”

"Don't worry, that's where the complexity of applying for a patent application lies, in order to prevent someone from fraudulently using someone else's invention as their own patent. So we need about two years as a buffer period for the patent application, during which time someone files the same patent as yours, or presents evidence to challenge the invalidity of your patent. ”

"Then the patent application will be suspended, and you will need to come to the Patent Office again to submit the information that needs to be supplemented, and then give an explanation. If the other party's report fails, then the patent application process will continue..."

Almost instantly, this complicated procedure thundered the middle-aged man, but he still asked without giving up: "Can it be faster!" I'm willing to pay a little more! ”

"I'm sorry. Even if we are willing to spend more money, we don't dare to accept it... The acceptance of the patent application is 100 dragon yuan, and I will not accept any more points! You... Still have questions? ”

"If there is no ... Shall we start handling it? ”

"This... All right! Do it first, do it first! ”

As soon as he had finished speaking, the middle-aged man closed his eyes, and spent two years registering a patent, once the craftsman in his own house found himself here behind his back to patent his craft.

I'm afraid I'm sure I'll come to ask questions, but the middle-aged man thought about it!

When the other party couldn't afford to eat, he was taken in by himself, and now he is relying on him to make a little more money. Could it be that the poor craftsman really dared to come?

In this way, the patent application for the new kerosene lamp of the Yulonfang brand was handed over!

Some time to come.

There is an endless stream of people who come to the Daming Patent Office every day to file patent applications, although the total number of people is not very large.

This made Sun Tai, the director of the Patent Affairs Bureau, who had just taken over, very happy.

"There's a lot to be done. With so many patents, it means that more and more inventions and ideas are born in the wisdom of the people! ”

"Daming Patent Affairs Bureau, it is estimated that it will not take a few years to produce a large number of patents..."

....

The Law.

For a country, it is almost the same foundation, but at this moment, Zhu Youzhen is placing a thick stack of "Da Ming Law" in front of him.

Historically, the Ming statutes also played a very positive role to a certain extent, with perfect coverage and relatively decentralized judicial power, and the emperor had relatively few direct monopolization of judicial power.

This is where it makes more sense.

But Zhu Youzhen knew better that in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the government was becoming increasingly corrupt, the eunuchs were arbitrary, the factory guards were rampant, and the laws and regulations were relaxed.

Due to the repeated promulgation of regulations, the existence of legal texts in name only, and the arbitrary severity of officials, the feudal legal system was greatly damaged.

"Da Ming Law" was promulgated by Lao Zhu, in order to prevent future generations from modifying it without authorization, so he left an ancestral precept and required future generations not to change a word.

Therefore, the monarch of later generations, in order to not be able to fill the loopholes that existed when Lao Zhu formulated the Da Ming Law, he could only try his best to fill it.

For example, Wanli attached the "Questioning and Punishment Regulations" to form the "Daming Law Supplementary Regulations".

It is equivalent to using patches in the same way to contribute to the Great Ming Law... Zhu Youzhen also has no opinion on this.

Even since his accession to the throne, for some of the changes to the law... For example, binding women's feet was considered a crime of mutilation!

This is also achieved by patching in this way.

Instead of directly modifying it on the "Da Ming Law", anyway, he is the emperor because of the country that Lao Zhu laid down at the beginning.

So Zhu Youzhen is still quite cautious about this, originally... "Da Ming Law" has been overhauled by Wanli. That is, after patching.

The internal laws and regulations have been relatively perfect, including the system of triage of the three divisions, which can be regarded as being pulled out and dried under the sun again, which can be regarded as usable.

For example, one of the most common punishments in the Ming law.

That is to confiscate the army, as long as someone is a traitor, it is easy to be sentenced to go to the border to confiscate the army, and it is not only himself who wants to confiscate the army.

Instead, it is divided into two types: lifelong and eternal.

For life, the army is filled until his own death.

It is always after the death of the person, and future generations still need to continue to serve in the army until "the hook is exhausted".

Now that the Ming Dynasty has even been gradually abolished by Zhu Youzhen, it is just a false name, where is this army going to be filled with army...?
