"Zhu Qing look at this grandfather clock, after a while, there will be one in each place. After that, there are small, five-grade and above officials can take home, remember not to lose it, it doesn't hurt if it breaks. ”

At the beginning of the early dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang put out the second floor clock, and he didn't want to take the first one, so he wanted to keep it as a souvenir.

He didn't want to call it a mouth, it was originally a bell, and then he talked about the mouth, and the coffin was about the mouth!

People call Xiaqiu Village a big table, and they are afraid of committing taboos.

The ministers looked at the floor clock in a daze, Hu Weiyong touched his nose, he didn't have this habitual action before, didn't he shoot face down twice! I almost broke my nose.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!" As the only prime minister, Hu Weiyong spoke first.

He looked at the floor clock, he really liked it, he couldn't get the previous sailing clock, and this big one was moved home, but it was amazing!

"Congratulations, don't be busy, it's small, let's put it out big, you can only get two feet high, it's best to hang it on the wall."

Looking at its shape, it looks like a tablet is placed on the table, and it was originally called a bell.

A timekeeping thing, take it back and keep it well, it is borrowed from you, not for you. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang said in advance, this thing is too valuable, if it wasn't given by Xiaqiu Village, he would have to arrest and ask for a different craftsman, and then block the technology.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Hu Weiyong spoke out again, he currently has the most power.

"No thanks. Xiaqiu Village said that what people are most afraid of is the unknown, and the unknown that they are most exposed to every day is the hour.

Everyone looks at the stars and the sun, and only a few people can calculate the same time, and the rest is estimated.

We used to be monks, and knocking on the wooden fish was actually timekeeping, but we didn't learn well, and we didn't study for long before we went out.

The wooden fish is not knocking all the time, nor is it a person who keeps knocking, it is a substitution, and then watching the sun, moon and stars to knock.

To put it bluntly, it's the same as the people who play the watch, including chanting, all of which can be timed, and people are powerful.

We didn't understand it at the time, but later Xiaqiu Village told us that the chanting was rhythmic, and the time was more accurate with the wooden fish.

Then when you see how the hour goes, don't panic, and there are reminders every day. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang talked about people's perception of time, which was instilled by the chief, and then thought about it carefully, there was nothing wrong.

Human survival is actually counting time, and if time is lost, people will have problems.

For example, if you keep a person in a house, food is always available, and the bathroom is also there, including bathing and other things.

If there is no network and no contact with the outside world, then the rules of this person's life are guaranteed to be chaotic, because there is less time to locate.

So is this the end? No!

Even if the person is born like this, he will try to adapt to the environment.

Someone who is suddenly locked up in this place, he may not be able to do it at first, and then he will analyze the time by the time when the food spoils.

He was even able to determine the time by his own hair growth, which was much easier for women.

This is the power of knowledge, when a person calculates time in a closed space, depending on the reserve of knowledge.

"Your Majesty! Can it be sold for money? "The level of Doctor Zeng Lu is enough, and he will have one after Xiaqiu Village produces a floor clock.

He cared about making money, and he knew that the overseas trade money earned in the palace was more than the financial income of the entire Ming Dynasty. Yes, this year.

"Apply it in our Daming first, and then let the Yi people know how powerful this thing is, and lead them to the village to have a look! For example, Xiaqiu Village and other villages. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang responded, how can such a good thing not be sold for money!

……

"Hanhan! Can it now? When Zhu Yuanzhang was talking to the ministers about the floor clock, the chief was talking to Han Han on the second floor of the box hotel.

How much can a watch or pocket watch sell for 100,000 taels of silver and feel like a robbery? The governor was also at a loss.

Zhu Wentian was stir-frying, and after a while, the princes came over to eat.

He said while stir-frying: "Third-rate enterprises do products, second-rate enterprises do brands, and first-class enterprises do standards." Let's set the rules.

In terms of technology, if there is no limit, what we make will be imitated by others, and we will think about how to make others unable to imitate because of poor technology.

This is not right, the clock is not good to imitate because of our leading technology, so the technology of rock sugar and soap has been made out?

Some people can buy through your raw materials and then discover the secrets, they just have to experiment a few more times. ”

Zhu Wentian is not satisfied with this technological monopoly, others will learn technology, and there are people in Western countries who are smart.

This involves a patent law, and because Xiaqiu Village is mixed with Zhu Yuanzhang, patent restrictions can be carried out in Daming, which is actually political.

Outside, what patents? People can imitate and imitate, can you still go and destroy people? So far.

Without patent protection, who wants to research new technologies? I spent a lot of money, and the things I worked so hard to make were used by others in a blink of an eye, and I didn't pay back the money I borrowed for research!

So how can you get others to recognize you? Easy to do! Pull others in.

The merchants who can trade in Daming now are either those who have a certain amount of power in their local area, or many people have pooled money to fight for it.

But either way, its capital power is strong enough to influence the political situation.

Then bring such people together to participate in the production and manufacture of high-profit goods.

Not only can they make money when they exchange, but they can also earn dividends, so they will inevitably earn more when they go back.

So they want to expand the scale and bring more good things to Daming, including new species, like shallots, special cotton, etc.

Whether Daming loses or earns in this process depends on how to calculate.

If calculated according to the comparative pure profit growth value, Daming is a loss, and this loss is not a loss, but a lack of money.

It is not a joint-stock company, there is no price per share, only the distribution data of internal shareholders.

In order to stabilize their own income, foreign 'investors' must fool others, no, they are kind enough to bring other people to Daming to make a fortune.

It looks like capital, but in fact it is politics, the two are inseparable, and a rich king can attract more people.

Zhu Wentian designed it in this way, and the promotion of the patent concept should let foreign businessmen agree first, and it doesn't matter if they are in the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know the far-reaching layout of this patent, and he now thinks that Daming should really let the technicians benefit, that is, good craftsmen make more money.

……

"What's next? Hanhan, what's next? We can't keep up. "The chief is talking to Hanhan.

In the morning, Zhu Wentian was cooking wontons, he made them himself, and cooked them in the ancestral hall, and he could do this alone.

"Kidnapping! Capital does not exist in isolation, it can only exist under one or several political systems, including religion.

Let's draw cakes for those people, let them bring in the resources from outside, and then we give them benefits, and they take them out and sell them.

They can even overthrow the regime if their regime restricts them, and their country has a small population and a large religious population. ”

Zhu Wentian didn't care about such things at all, he had the means to deal with it.

Not anymore today
