lady

Chapter 782 Look, Master Xiang, It's Like This...

Han Yanhui was very rude to visit An Guogong before dinner.

There was still some time before dinner, and An Guogong did not have the habit of greeting politely and twisting around like a civil servant.The boy came in and reported that "Mr. Han is here." When An Guogong went out to greet him, he asked Ye Xinyan to come over.

Han Yanhui said that the old guy had come to ask his granddaughter for advice, and just listening to his granddaughter's opinions in the imperial study room was enough to make the old guy's brain ache.

I think it was because of his convenience that he dragged his granddaughter and listened to her explanation for a long time before he understood what she meant.

In the waiting room of the Duke's Mansion, Duke An and Han Yanhui sat down as guests and hosts. They had just served tea, and after a few words of courtesy, Ye Xinyan arrived.

When Han Yanhui heard from his servants that Miss Ye was outside, he immediately felt a lot more at ease.I haven't dealt with Mr. An in private before, so I don't know much about it.At this time, it seems that An Guogong is not only cunning and unruly, but also a neat person.

He knowingly bowed his hands to An Guogong to express his gratitude.

Originally, he wanted to exchange some pleasantries, so he told An Guogong that he wanted to see Miss Ye.I didn't expect Mr. An to be so straightforward. If he didn't enter the door, the people sent by Mr. An to invite Ye Xinyan went to the backyard.

Ye Xinyan came in and greeted the two of them first.

An Guogong waved his hand, first waved away the servants who were waiting in the living room, and then said to Ye Xinyan: "In my own house, Mr. Han is not very conspicuous, so sit aside." If this old guy is conspicuous , specifying that he cannot come to the door to ask a young woman for advice.

Ye Xinyan thanked him very obediently, and sat down in the first seat under An Guogong.

Han Yan glanced back at An Guogong, then at Ye Xinyan, as if he was thinking about how to speak.

Ye Xinyan saw it, and turned to An Guogong, "Grandfather, I don't know what you are asking for your granddaughter?"

Mr. An nodded in satisfaction. It was because his granddaughter was extremely intelligent and generous. It could be seen that he was too lazy to spend time entertaining Han Yanhui, and he was able to not express his eagerness to send him away in his words.

He looked at Han Yanhui, and his eyes told Han Yanhui: This is an opportunity for my granddaughter to ask you a question, why don't you hurry up and get down to business?

Han Yanhui smiled at An Guogong, then looked at Ye Xinyan, and said solemnly: "Miss Ye is a great talent, what Missy said in the imperial study a few days ago, and the note handed over this morning Chen, this is an eye-opener for the old man, and he has a sense of epiphany."

When An Guogong listened, his eyes widened instantly. This praise...is it too much?What is Han Yanhui thinking about this old man? I wonder if he has evil intentions in praising his granddaughter so much?

Ye Xinyan was a little sweaty, and she laughed uncomfortably: "Don't dare to do it, Mr. Xiang, you have praised me too much. Those little women are just a little thought of doing business to make money, and they really don't deserve such praise from Mr. Xiang."

She really didn't dare to take it seriously. In reality, she was just an ordinary person.It is just to bring here some knowledge of later generations and those things that have been confirmed by decades or hundreds of years of history, and show them in this era, that's all.

She was already very embarrassed when she heard Jiang Yifan recount Jin Rong's words before, but now she heard Han Yanhui say these words in front of her, and she was so guilty that she almost couldn't hold back her face.

"An Guogong and the eldest lady are straightforward people, so the old man just spoke up and said the business. The patent law that the eldest lady mentioned in the report is something new that has never existed before. It is difficult to write it into the law. Although both You are an official of the imperial court, but not everyone can understand the truth, and you need to convince many courtiers."

Ye Xinyan nodded seriously, "Little lady understands."

Trying to do something that has never been done before has always been difficult.If the matter of patents has not been mentioned before, no one will see the benefits of it.At this time, when it is officially put out, I am afraid that many powerful people and families will oppose it and are unwilling to let the interests of craftsmen be protected.

There are even narrow-minded officials who, in order to maintain their lofty status as scholars, will turn black and white, and it is said that patent protection can promote social development.

"Missy is not an ordinary woman. I will not lie to Miss Ye. Although it is difficult to write patent protection into the law, it is not impossible. However, if there is a device with high utility in the future, it will be similar to Miss Ye. The tools that have been developed can be used to get twice the result with half the effort, and have great business opportunities. Huge benefits come first, even if there is legal protection, it may not be able to stop powerful people from extending their black hands."

After Han Yanhui finished speaking, he looked at Ye Xinyan with burning eyes.To be honest, he doubted that Ye Xinyan could do anything.However, since she made the suggestion, maybe, maybe she also has some ideas?
Ye Xinyan secretly estimated in her heart that the combination of Jin Rong and Han Yanhui is really good.Although Han Yanhui also has the cunning and arrogant temperament of officials for many years, he is really an official who wants to do practical things, and really wants to get this matter done.

"It depends on how determined the imperial court is to implement the patent law. The imperial court's scientific examination and selection of scholars, its interests are not insignificant. However, after several dynasties have been implemented, they can still maintain a rare clarity. As long as there is determination, there will always be Enforcement can be guaranteed.”

Han Yan looked back with a look of embarrassment, and said: "This is true, but the imperial examination is for the imperial court to select scholars to become officials, and all those who participate in the scientific examination are scholars, and scholars are noble."

The woman in front of him doesn't seem to think highly of scholars, but what he said in these two sentences is that scholars have a high status, so the whole world recognizes that the imperial examination can use heavy codes.

But the facts are the facts, Han Yanhui paused, and continued, "The patent law protects the property of the craftsman, and it is money, which is really not the same. Fraud in imperial examinations is a crime that cannot be touched, and it is the only serious crime." The law is strictly punishing. If the law is used too much, I'm afraid there will be no law."

This is true, and that is basically what the law means. The protection of one project is naturally different from the protection of two or three projects.

What's more, people who eat by working with their hands have been inferior to those who eat by using their brains since ancient times.Not to mention ancient times, even modern times are the same.

"It's not that the little girl is alarmist. The effect of the implementation of the patent law is in the interests of the country and the people, no less than the imperial examination."

Han Yanhui frowned when he heard that.He felt that Ye Xinyan's proposal could greatly promote the renewal and creation of various instruments and appliances, and it was indeed beneficial to the court and the people.But if it is too high, it will not be convincing.

"That's it, look, Prime Minister Han..."

Ye Xinyan did not have a very deep theoretical basis, so she could only tell Han Yanhui the extraordinary significance of innovation and handicraft industry, and finally the development of industry.

She has improved and changed farm tools from simple to complex since ancient times, gradually perfected looms to perfect, and even refined the strength of weapons. First, there were bows and arrows, and then developed on the basis of bows and arrows until they made crossbows and arrows, and city giants. crossbow.

It's okay to say anything else, when he raised the weapon, even Duke An's expression changed.Especially what Ye Xinyan said, maybe in the future, we can develop more powerful, unparalleled penetrating power, instantaneous speed, and powerful weapons, which almost made An Guogong's blood boil for so many years.
