Daming: I am the most powerful emperor grandson, please abdicate the throne

Chapter 184 New Cooperation
  "I see!"

Zhu Xuan understood that these words scared Uncle Twenty.

After all, dumping goods abroad and plundering raw materials are still too long-term. People in the Ming Dynasty knew almost nothing about overseas. Zhu Song couldn't understand that if dumping occurred, the first thing he would think of was simple business and so on. It was normal to be frightened.

Zhu Xuan emphasized: "However, the matter of patents can actually be tried on a trial basis. We do not do business, but we encourage invention and creation. We put the registration of patents together with the registration of copyrights. I will use part of the money from my income. , as a patent incentive. As long as someone registers and ensures that the technology is easy to use, certain rewards can be given based on the ease of use. How about this?"

Zhu Song agreed: "It's feasible, but are you sure you won't use it for business?"

Zhu Xuan assured: "Uncle Twenty said it was so serious. Naturally, I dare not use the patent to do business. Although the profits are high, I am even more afraid that Grandpa Huang will be angry."

"If you do this in Annan, will you bring a similar model to our Ming Dynasty in the future?"

Zhu Song was still a little worried.

The little nephew dares to do anything and is very courageous, but he has experienced it before. The original incident of "Ge Wu Zhi Zhi Zhi" still has an impact to this day.

The investigation of things to achieve knowledge only offends scholars.

However, according to Zhu Xuan's description, using patents to do business will lead to a large scale of business activities and a great impact, and may even destroy the household registration system established by Zhu Yuanzhang, causing many people to be idle in production and so on.

Lao Zhu will definitely be angry.

Zhu Xuan solemnly said: "Uncle Twenty, please don't worry. I won't bring it back. I will try it out in Annan."

After he finished speaking, he was thinking again, suddenly bringing up the idea of ​​dumping goods abroad, the emergence of capitalism, and so on. The conditions of the Ming Dynasty were not yet mature. People of this era were severely restricted in their thinking, and the ideological enlightenment they had done before was still a bit behind.

From Uncle Twenty's strong opposition, it can be inferred that if other people had listened, their opposition might have been even more violent.

They may also label Zhu Xuan as someone who has brought disaster to the country and the people. After all, these are completely contrary to the inherent system of this millennium, and are as serious as directly contrary to Confucianism.

Zhu Xuan now wants to reform Confucianism, but not to completely oppose it, let alone directly oppose it. He just makes some changes without touching their bottom line.

"No, that's fine."

Zhu Song relaxed and said: "Leave the patent to me in the future, and I will pay you the money together."

Since it is a project that is conducive to the development of science and the transformation of the Ming Dynasty, he also wants to participate and work together to develop the Ming Dynasty. When the time comes, he will go to his father and ask his father to establish a patent law just like the copyright law, so that it can be implemented.

My father should be very supportive of encouraging inventions and creations. After all, it was my father who established the Science Cabinet.

When Zhu Xuan saw how generous Uncle Twenty was, he couldn't be stingy and said, "Uncle Twenty invested in my factory before, but he hasn't received the corresponding benefits yet. However, the Annan factory will have income soon. How about we sign a supplementary contract?" A contract, and we’ll share it when I bring the money back?”

"also!"

Zhu Song thought it was okay after hearing this.

At the beginning, he had made a real investment, and he had never received any substantial benefits. Of course he would not refuse it if he could share the money.

They prepared a new contract, determined the specific income, and signed their names. The cooperation was concluded. Zhu Xuan was very happy and Zhu Song was unambiguous.

"How is our Da Ming Bookstore doing now?"

Zhu Xuan asked about it.

After such a long time, he basically no longer cares about the Daming Bookstore. His focus is on the factory. The bookstore is completely in the hands of his twentieth uncle and his second brother.

"all the best."

Zhu Song said: "Our bookstore is developing very fast. All branches have been opened in several prefectures near Yingtian, and there are even more branches in Suhang and other places. Most of the income from serialized novels still comes from Suhang."

People in the Jiangnan area are really rich.

There is heaven, there are Suzhou and Hangzhou.

Zhu Xuan finally understood the meaning of this sentence.

Zhu Song added: "The development of our Daming Bookstore is of course more than that. It has also begun to expand to the north. In addition, our contracted authors have grown to more than 100, two-thirds of them are in Yingtian Mansion, and the rest are in Yingtian Mansion. In the Suzhou-Hangzhou area.”

It can actually be done, signing authors across regions, this is a good operation! “Nowadays, the number of books serialized at the same time can reach up to more than two hundred books a day.”

Zhu Song was a little proud and said: "But we don't dare to do the most profitable books, for fear of being dragged down and beaten by our father."

The most profitable ones are pornographic books.

This kind of coloring book is too timid to give them a water tank.

Otherwise, Lao Zhu will definitely seize their bookstore, and then there will be nothing left.

Zhu Xuan said: "This is already very good!"

"really!"

Zhu Song laughed and said: "I am very satisfied to be able to achieve the current scale. I am just worried about you and know how to mess around."

Zhu Xuan said: "I will pay attention. Thank you Uncle Twenty for your concern."

After staying in the Daming Bookstore for a while to understand what was going on and meeting his twentieth uncle, Zhu Xuan left here and went directly to the Xu family to find his two little wives.

I haven’t seen Xu Miaojin for a long time.

On the first day after returning to Yingtian, I only met him briefly and then had to go back to accompany Grandpa Huang.

Come to Xu’s house.

"younger brother!"

Xu Miaojin didn't know how much she missed Zhu Xuan. The brief meeting that day was not enough to make up for her longing.

Zhu Xuan smiled and said: "Sister Miaojin, is the surprise I brought you big?"

“What a surprise!”

Xu Miaojin said happily: "I didn't expect to see Yuan Jun so soon. My brother did a great job!"

Mu Yuanjun smiled cutely and said, "The three of us will be together again soon."

They chatted at Xu's house for a long time and were about to go out when Xu Huizu came back.

"Little grandson!"

When Xu Huizu saw it, he took him directly to the study and said, "I have something I want to talk to His Highness about. Please wait for a while."

They could only watch Xu Huizu take Zhu Xuan away.

When he arrived in the study, Xu Huizu explained today's Zhu Yunwen incident in detail.

Zhu Xuan was startled!
  The emperor really didn't want to see the officials in the DPRK and China being too united, so he created some trouble for them, and then took out Zhu Yunwen and split the civil service group into two factions.

Based on what Lu had done and Zhu Yunwen's problems, Zhu Xuan understood that Zhu Yunwen would never have another chance.

Grandpa Huang will not give him another chance.

Deliberately paying attention to Zhu Yunwen was just a check and balance method for Grandpa Huang!
  It's just that Grandpa Huang threw Zhu Yunwen out, which surprised Zhu Xuan.

"What do you think, Your Highness?"

Xu Huizu also took a fancy to Zhu Xuan's potential and could probably figure out Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts.

The person who will be in charge in the future will definitely be Zhu Xuan, but now Zhu Yunwen is brought up again. In addition, the Huaixi nobles behind Zhu Yunxi have become restless and strongly support Zhu Yunxi.

Zhu Xuan is currently the most popular candidate. Apart from being favored, the power behind him is not very good.

The two generals were not as good as the entire civil service group, nor were they as noble as Huaixi Xun. In addition, Zhu Di seemed to have some special thoughts. Xu Huizu felt that his situation was a bit embarrassing.
