Datang: I am the prince of salted fish, I impeach Li Er at the beginning

Chapter 184 Sometimes, sincerity may be more powerful than power

With the promise given by Li Zhi.

The craftsmen let out bursts of cheers!
Previously.

The fact that innovation can be rewarded by the court is more like a rumor.

Except for the sporadic and vague news given by the supervisor, there has been no official confirmation of this incident.

Now, Li Zhi clearly tells everyone that as long as there is innovation, there will be rewards.

And a precise method of receiving the reward is given, allowing them to get the reward smoothly.

With the endorsement of His Royal Highness Jin Wang, who is in full swing, the matter of receiving the award must have been implemented.

The craftsmen were all happy just like Chinese New Year, and everyone was smiling.

"This matter is settled. Your Royal Highness Jin Wang, you can't go back on your word. Otherwise, we will waste time and energy and end up with nothing. We ordinary people can't bear this blow."

"You have to mean what you say, and everyone has heard it."

"Now I can rest assured to research machinery. Thank you for your support, Your Highness!"

……

Each artisan celebrates this happy event in his own way.

Some still feel uneasy and have to confirm again and again.

It can be heard that the common people do not have [-]% trust in him and the court.

Hearing the humble demands of these low-level craftsmen, Li Zhi felt mixed feelings.

This is all a crisis of trust caused by the persecution of ordinary people by the ruling class in the past.

Fortunately, he has a bit of prestige among the common people.

Otherwise, it would not be as easy as it is now to promote the wave of innovation.

"Don't worry, this king will never deny the reward that should be honored!"

Li Zhi pressed his hands to signal everyone to calm down.

After the surrounding environment calmed down a bit, Li Zhi continued: "But the ugly words are ahead, and the imperial court does not create a cover for every invention! The things you create must play a role in promoting a certain industry, otherwise it will be a waste of time. You won’t be rewarded by the court!”

After the words fell, the craftsmen discussed in low voices with the people around them.

After a while, someone stood up and asked, "How should we define the standard of propulsion?"

Li Zhi glanced at that person, nodded with good intentions, and said, "The specific identification method will be in charge of the general supervisor, and professionals in the industry will be sent to conduct professional identification!"

"If qualified, rewards will be issued according to the role the invention can play."

"But if it's a shoddy thing, made haphazardly in order to get rewards from the court, there won't be any money!"

In fact, he didn't need to say these things, the right to speak was in the hands of the imperial court.

When the time comes, whatever he says will be whatever it is, and the people will have no room to resist.

But Li Zhi didn't like this way of doing things.

On the one hand, he is too domineering, on the other hand, he is also more inclined to act in an aboveboard manner, explaining everything that needs to be said clearly beforehand, so as not to cause trouble afterward.

Sometimes, telling the truth doesn't have to be offensive.

Especially when this person is in a high position and at the same time can treat the people at the bottom with sincerity, he can gain the trust of the people instead.

After the craftsmen discussed with each other for a few words, the question was over.

But then another problem arose.

"If someone's invention collides with another person's proposal, what will happen?"

Hearing this question, Li Zhi answered without thinking: "Outside Jinwang Mansion, the patents that have been collected are published every day. Then you check whether the things you are creating will be duplicated. If there is a duplication of patents, the former will notify you Eat, the latter is worthless!"

"patent?"

Some people have doubts about this unfamiliar vocabulary.

Li Zhi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, moistened his somewhat thirsty throat, and said, "About the issue of patents, there will be a detailed announcement in the future, and someone will explain this to you in detail at that time, let's skip this issue for now .”

It takes a lot of time and tongues to explain patents.

This is obviously not an environment for discussing patents, and Li Zhi avoided this issue.

The craftsmen didn't care too much, as long as they could understand the meaning in the voice.

Then, someone raised another question: "If someone else's...patents are made public, wouldn't it be a loss to the court if someone copied them?"

This question is very interesting.

The corners of Li Zhi's mouth curved upward slightly, and he said jokingly, "Do you think the imperial court will do business at a loss?"

The imperial court is the most powerful place in the world. Who dares to steal the imperial court's patents?
It's as if someone is asking, what if some villains rob the court of the land?
What else can I do?
Just kill him!
The imperial court controlled by Li Shimin is not as easy to talk to as he is.

Dare to ride on the head of the government to shit, isn't this courting death?
Hearing the hidden meaning, the craftsman who asked the question shrank his neck and couldn't help but shudder.

Indeed, he saw that His Royal Highness Prince Jin was very talkative, and thought that the imperial court had the same attitude.

But he obviously forgot that Li Zhi is Li Zhi, and the imperial court is the imperial court, and the two cannot be confused.

If you think King Jin is easy to bully and dare to provoke the court.

At that time, it will definitely lead to a catastrophe.

Having said that, the craftsmen couldn't think of other questions for the time being, and the environment on site became quiet again.

Li Zhigang wanted to take this opportunity to ask Tian An to bring him some water.

At this time, the boy who had left before ran back, carrying a lot of messy things, and said out of breath, "I'm back. This is what I invented. See if you can give me a reward."

Seeing his panting like a cow and his expectant eyes, Li Zhi really couldn't bear to neglect this child.

The corners of his eyes twitched, he raised his chin towards the boy, and said in a hoarse voice, "Introduction, tell me what you invented?"

"This king?"

When the boy heard his claim, his jaw dropped in shock, his mouth was opened so wide that he could almost stuff a salted duck egg into it.

Li Zhi nodded with a smile, "Yes, it's my king, please introduce me quickly."

The boy was stunned, this is actually a prince?
Oh my god, he actually talked to the prince.

If the friends in the workshop know about this, they might be able to walk sideways in the future, right?
The boy was still in a daze, and the people around couldn't stand it anymore, so they hurriedly reminded him.

"Little boy of the Yang family, this is His Royal Highness King Jin. His Highness asked you to introduce your invention. Don't be in a daze!"

"Don't make His Highness wait too long, this is a hard-won opportunity, why don't you take out that bastard of yours?"

"Your Highness can wait for you for so long, it is your blessing, why are you so ignorant?"
