Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord

Could it be in other coastal towns? There is no way to dock many ships at the ports in those places. Once they are blocked, they can all be surrounded and killed, and there is no way out.

If so, it saves a lot of trouble.

After An Li read the document, her brown eyes widened, and she asked in surprise, "Huh? They're docked at the Mermaid Bay?"

After the failure of the Flanders Empire's second battle at the mouth of the sea, Niu Da asked the mermaid army to follow silently to monitor their next move. He followed them until they headed towards Mermaid Bay, and then returned to Haiyan City to report. Before the supplies arrived, Niu Da did not dare to rush to Mermaid Sea to help the remaining Mermaids, so he sent the information back.

The sailors didn't dare to approach easily because they saw more than 200 ships encircling the mermaid bay, so the sailors didn't know that Hugo and the mermaids evacuated early.

"According to what Biris said, there are still some mermaids in the Mermaid Bay." An Li said after thinking for a while.

"Will the people of the Flanders Empire capture them as slaves?" Mina guessed.

Liu Feng took a sip of tea, and then said, "This is about the mermaid clan, and Biris has already given them advice."

He will not offer to help, this is a matter of the mermaid clan, after all, they have already warned.

"Your Majesty, will those sailors... Mina narrowed her eyes slightly and asked.

Liu Feng shook his head slightly, and said with a light smile, "They won't, where are the military regulations, and the mermaids in the bay stayed here voluntarily, and they all know that an enemy is coming, this is their own choice."

He paused, and said calmly, "If the remaining mermaids are not stupid, seeing so many enemies coming, they probably would have run away long ago."

"That's right." After thinking about it for a while, An Li finally understood the general idea.

"Mina, write an order to Haiyan City." Liu Feng said softly.

"Yes." Mina responded immediately, holding a pen and getting ready.

"Let Niu Dajing wait and see what happens, and let the navy go to watch the people of the Flanders Empire, and wait until the supplies arrive before proceeding to the next step. If there is any problem, immediately send it back to Chang'an City." Liu Feng ordered.

"Understood." Mina wrote quickly with the pen in her hand, and immediately sent someone to deliver the order.

Seeing that the matter in Haiyan City came to an end, An Li handed Liu Feng a document, and said softly, "Your Majesty, this is the document you sorted out yesterday, and it has been printed."

Some of Liu Feng's important documents now will be printed by someone after they are sorted out. Apart from being convenient for circulation, they are also kept for archiving.

"En." Liu Feng took the file and began to read it.

This document is about the invention of the whole people. From the establishment of the scientific research department, it has not been perfected until now, and a policy suitable for this era has been reformed. With regard to the issue of invention patents, ordinary people could not even take care of their lives before, but now life is better, and they have the conditions and time to think about these things. Invention and innovation are the fresh blood of the industry. These blood must be well protected, provided with good channels, and nourished and nurtured.

An Li asked softly, "Your Majesty, is there anything else you want to add?"

"The rewards can be increased." Liu Feng said softly.

He sorted out the materials for several days, and set up some incentive awards, including creativity awards. At the same time, if a real object is produced, it will be rewarded if it is found to be feasible after the experiment.

"Alright Your Majesty, is there any more?" Enri wrote it down in her notepad.

Liu Feng flipped through the documents for a while, thought for a while and said, "Let's set up a patent 0"

"Patent?" "Every girl is curious, this is another new vocabulary.

"That is, after you invent something useful, you can apply for a patent. If you want to use this patent, you have to apply for a fee, which is divided into three parts, one part for the inventor, -

One for tax and one for the operation of the patent department.

And this patent time can be divided into one year, two years... or ten years according to the difficulty, and it will be developed after it expires. "

Liu Feng paused, took a sip of tea and continued, "Of course, if the old patent is improved, the patent for the newly improved invention will no longer belong to the old inventor, but will be given to the inventor of the old patent. off fees.

These steps are to encourage people to invent, and to give some people hard work and innovation, and to give the spear industry a good soil for innovation."

"I see, this patent is a thing that protects the interests of the inventor."

An Li rolled her brown eyes and said.

"Well, that's right, it can be said that since the patent has been established, the reward rules have to be changed." Liu Feng said after thinking.

"Your Majesty, tell me." An Li said while holding a pen.

"There are three grades for inventions, high, middle and low. The rewards at the current stage are 100 gold coins for high grades, 100 silver coins for medium grades, and between 1 silver coin and 100 silver coins for low grades." Liu Feng said after thinking.

"Yes." An Li nodded and recorded it in the notepad.

"One more thing, anyone who has an idea to make a real thing, as long as he has innovation, even if it is useless, can also get an incentive award." Liu Feng smiled lightly. As the saying goes, 0.1 is worth a lot of money, and there must be a brave man. Only with attractive rewards will people have the motivation to do inventions.

In addition to accelerating the development of Chang'an City, it can also recruit a lot of talents, and those with good ideas can also work in the scientific research department.

"Your Majesty, I also have a proposal." An Li raised her hand.

"Tell me." Liu Feng said gently.

"If the commoners have good ideas but don't have any coins, can we give some money to them?" Enli asked, wagging her fox tail.

"Don't do this for the time being, the stall can't be too big." Liu Feng shook his head and said, afraid that some people would get confused.

After all, there are too many such things on the other side of the earth. Some people will do anything for money, which will lead to bad-some people.

- Wisps of sunlight pierced through the clouds, and the shops on the streets of Chang'an City opened one after another.

The newspaper office has also begun to arrange staff to sell newspapers, and the content of today's headlines is the information compiled by the tallest building yesterday, about the topic of patents.

"The newspaper is sold. His Majesty the King encourages everyone to invent and create. Inventors have a chance to get gold coins."

"The Patent Division has been established, and everyone can take a look."

Shouts like these have been echoing on the street, and Nuo Yue asked them to focus on promoting them.

Wendy Lin, who was going to buy breakfast on the street at the moment, heard the yelling, waved to the newspaper seller, and shouted politely, "Please give me a newspaper."

"Okay, two steel coins for one newspaper." The newspaper seller said softly.

"Here." Wendylin took out two steel coins and handed them over, took the newspaper and began to read it.

She has lived in Chang'an City for a long time. She originally planned to stay here for about seven or eight days. Who knows - she doesn't want to leave after staying here. After reading the newspaper for a while, Wen Dilin refreshed her understanding of Chang'an City again, and muttered to herself, "Such a generous reward 01 is actually given."

If these bonuses were placed in the Flanders Empire, the family could live a good life for several years.

In the newspaper, Liu Feng's detailed content from yesterday was sorted out and published, such as the rewards for the three grades of high school, low school, and low school.

"Anything invented by oneself can be checked and registered by the patent department,-

Once it is established, it will be able to record the patent for you, and you will receive the patent fee...Wendy Lin looked at the newspaper and muttered to herself.

The newspaper explains many explanations about patents in detail, so people who don't understand patents can read this newspaper to know.
