For the craftsmen of the feudal era, they either attached themselves to the central power system, became imperial craftsmen, and served the monarch. All superior inventions and creations would be offered as " palace secrets " and owned by the royal family.
Or they would abide by the ancient precepts of " passing on the family business to outsiders " and " passing on the family business to children ", and they would operate in the way of a family workshop to make a living.
In a rigid society without any industrial or commercial atmosphere, the craftsmen who invented the invention had no corresponding social status, and patent law was even more impossible to talk about.
In this way, the creativity of the entire society would be completely stifled and there would be no vitality.
Li Shi Min was not a fool.
Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui were not mediocre either.
The most powerful decision-makers of the Great Tang quickly finished exchanging their thoughts.
Zhangsun Wuji: " I think that you are right. Respect for innovation can encourage more people to invest in invention and technological innovation. It is beneficial to the country…"
"There can be patent protection laws, but it should not be excessive.”Fang Xuanling voiced his opinion. He had realized that over-protection of patents might result in a bunch of patent oligarchs, which would be detrimental to the development of society.
Du Ruhui's words were concise and comprehensive.”
Du Ruhui's meaning was worth pondering.
This was to take the golden mean. It meant that the law had to give respect to the inventor.
However, if the new technology really needed to be spread to the majority of the people, he would turn a blind eye.
Hearing up to this point, Yang Qian was somewhat surprised. Indeed, no one who could become prime minister was stupid!
The legendary plot of the house, Old Yin, and Zhangsun Wuji were all something.
After hearing the opinions of the ministers, Li Shi Min quickly made a decision.
"I think the model of your shop is very good. Then let's make it a joining shop. I wonder how much I'll give you for a joining fee?”
Yang Qian thought for a moment." If other merchants want to join us, I'll charge them a hundred strings of money and send them over to help renovate the shop and train the chefs until they can operate smoothly.
Since Your Majesty is preparing to open stores all over the world, then 100 strings of money is a little too much. Moreover, I can't send people to guide every store.”
One hundred strings of money was equivalent to one hundred thousand wen. Its purchasing power was equivalent to 500,000 in the future. This joining fee was not particularly exaggerated. After all, Yang Qian still sent people to help renovate and train new chefs.
As for the ten strings of money for a shop proposed to Li Shimin, Yang Qian was prepared to take the money without doing anything.
During the Zhenguan period, the world was divided into ten provinces. Each province had an average of twenty provincial capitals, so there were two hundred provincial capitals. The smaller counties had even more.
If half of the states, prefectures, and counties in the country each opened a store, Yang Qian would be able to receive more than 1,000 strings of money from the joining fee alone.
One had to know that the total cost of this flagship store that he had set up was less than thirty strings of money!
Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui were originally worried that Yang Qian would ask for an exorbitant price, but when they heard the price of ten strings of coins for a shop, they all felt that Yang Qian was really an honest person!
"Ten strings of coins for a shop, this price isn't considered high.”
After Li Shi Min heard Yang Qian's offer, he felt much better. He could open hundreds of shops with just a small reward.
For Li Shimin, the biggest meaning of this joining fee was that he recognized the concept of patent law and expressed his respect for inventions!
Most of the people present were in a good mood. Only Li Chengqian felt like he had eaten a fly at this moment.
"Why didn't bengong think of opening a store…If bengong knew that this was possible, then bengong wouldn't have fallen out with Little Daoist!”
Li Chengqian glared hatefully at Feng Xiaoyue. He thought to himself,'This Feng Qianniu is so stupid. Why didn't he think of this?' Why did he have to forcefully buy Little Daoist's shop?
Feng Xiaoyue understood Li Chengqian's eyes and secretly complained in his heart. I'm just a rough person who practices martial arts. How would I know that there was such a thing?
This is the first time I've heard of the term 'Franchises'.
On the other side, after Li Shiming finished his business, he could finally deal with Li Chengqian.
"Li Chengqian, why did you sneak out of the palace and come here? Tell me the truth!"
Li Shi Min questioned in a low voice, not giving the Crown Prince any face.
Seeing Li Chengqian being taught a lesson on the spot, Zhangsun Wuji and Empress Zhangsun couldn't bear it.
However, Li Chengqian was seriously too naughty. They were also not in a good position to persuade him.
How could Li Chengqian dare to say his intention? His face flushed red, and he stammered, unable to say anything for a long time.
"You still dare to remain silent!" Li Shi Min glared at the Eastern Palace guards." If he doesn't dare to say it, you can say it!"”
Feng Xiaoyue and the group of guards looked at each other. They naturally did not dare to ruin Li Chengqian's reputation.
At this time, a gentle voice like a silver bell came from Yang Qian's side," This young master wanted to buy my young master's shop just now…"
The one who spoke was Luo Yanran. Seeing that no one dared to expose Li Chengqian's good deeds, she couldn't help but complain.
Everyone's expression changed instantly.
Especially Li Shimin, he came to Yang Qian to learn from him, but in the end, he still had to obediently pay the joining fee and open a store.
Li Chengqian actually wanted to buy Yang Qian's flagship store…
This unfilial son is smarter than me!
