"Xuanling, Ruhui, what do you think of Li Ke's patent bill?”
In the warm pavilion of Taiji Palace, Li Shimin asked his right-hand man.
Du Ruhui smiled bitterly." It's good, but if the court agrees to His Highness Ke's patent bill, it means that His Highness Ke will monopolize the production of perfumes, soaps, toothbrushes, tooth powder, glass, donkey-hide glue, and other items.”
"In the future, if someone wants to make these things, as long as the production process is the same as His Highness Ke's, they first need to obtain His Highness Ke's approval and pay His Highness Ke's patent fee.”
"I'm afraid many people will view His Highness Ke as an enemy.”
Li Shimin nodded slightly. He was very clear about the effect of the patent bill that Li Ke submitted when he left.
Fang Xuanling secretly sized up the Emperor and guessed that the Emperor was most likely prepared to agree.
In the past dynasties, the aristocrats had monopolized too many things. On the surface, the Emperor in front of him had a good relationship with the aristocrats, but in his heart, he had long regarded the aristocrats as enemies.
Nobles could monopolize politics, economy, education, and land.
Now, His Majesty will also support His Highness Ke to monopolize these things!
"Your Majesty, the imperial court can agree. After all, this concerns the livelihood of thousands of disabled soldiers in the next hundred years.”
"The Imperial Court is doing this, just as His Highness Ke said, to protect the legitimate interests of the inventor and encourage invention and creation. However, in my opinion, it is also to protect the livelihood of countless disabled soldiers!”
Since he had guessed the Emperor's thoughts, he naturally had to follow the Emperor's wishes.
Moreover, the Emperor's purpose in consulting them was not to listen to their suggestions.
They needed their help to think of a reasonable excuse to shut the mouths of the aristocrats.
Du Ruhui came to a realization and immediately agreed,"I agree. The livelihood of the disabled soldiers is related to the country. The patent bill should be introduced!”
With the approval of Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, Li Shimin was not worried that the Ministry of Central Affairs would not pass.
"Then let the two beloved ministers persuade the Ministry of Central Affairs to enact this bill as soon as possible."”
"This subject obeys the decree!"
……
At this moment, Li Ke was hosting the opening ceremony of the Veteran Brand Main Store.
Veteran Brand's main store was just opposite the Imperial City.
This was the best location in Chang 'an.
The people living there were either rich or noble. Ordinary people in Chang 'an rarely came here.
Because here, if one was not careful and stepped on a dog, it might belong to that Duke Wang.
At this moment, a group of dancers were dancing on the stage built outside the shop.
Many people were attracted to watch.
Li Ke stood on the stage and said loudly,"The Veteran Brand Chang 'an Main Store is opening today. All purchases are 1% off. 1% off.”
“……”
On the other side of the imperial city moat.
A group of court officials watched from afar.
"Humph! Has it been passed on? All the aristocratic families in Chang 'an were not allowed to buy this item!”
"Lord Dugu, please rest assured.”
"Lord Dugu, Lord Zhangsun was forced to do so. Don't worry, after some time, Lord will definitely recover.”
……
Dugu Yanwen smiled in response to the comforting words of his colleagues. He wasn't worried about being stripped of his official position.
This kind of thing was nothing to the gentry clans.
After a period of time, when the limelight died down, it would be very easy for them to return to the royal court.
Back then, the Dugu Family had even rebelled during the Martial Virtue Era. But, so what? It was just that the Patriarch of the Dugu Family had been sentenced to death. The Dugu Family had been silent for a period of time. That was all.
"Without the support of our Shi clan, you can't take over the world, much less do business!”
"That's right. At that time, Wu Wang will personally come and beg us to cooperate with him!”
"Everyone, we don't know how to make perfume, glass, and soap yet, but toothbrushes and tooth powder are very easy. Toothbrushes are made from horsehair and boar hair, and tooth powder is made from refined salt mixed with bluestone powder and mint. We can start with these two items to seize the market and lower the price to the lowest!”
"Right, if we can afford to waste time, then let's see if His Highness Wu Wang can afford to waste time too!”
……
"Eh, Lord Dugu, is that your Young Master?”
"Lord Dou, isn't that your daughter's maid?”
"Lord Zheng…"
Just as everyone was discussing, they suddenly noticed that a familiar person had appeared on the opposite side.
These people sneakily entered Li Ke's shop.
Soon, many young masters and servants of the noble families appeared in Vermilion Lane one after another.
The faces of Dugu Yanwen and the others instantly darkened.
Just now, everyone was still discussing how to boycott Li Ke's products. It had not been long before their own people came out to tear down the stage and slap their faces.
"Isn't this Brother Dugu? Come, Brother Dugu's identity isn't ordinary.”Cheng Chuliang said loudly.
"Brother Dou, you're here. Please come in, please come in…"
……
Cheng Chumo and the others seemed to be afraid that others couldn't hear them. When they saw familiar faces, they would shout and pull them into the hall.
In a carriage not far away.
Cui Yingying covered her mouth and chuckled." Grandpa, the aristocrats in Chang 'an even announced that they would boycott their products. The shop of the King of Wu had just opened, and their own people showed up first. Before they could do anything, their internal department had already collapsed.”
Cui Yingying played with a bottle of perfume in her beautiful and slender hands and continued,"These things are all good things. A simple boycott won't work at all. It's simply asking for humiliation.”
"Yingying, what do you have in mind?" Cui Zongbo asked.”
The others only knew that Cui Family had a beautiful granddaughter; however, they didn't know that this granddaughter was very talented in business.
The Cui family's business was all managed by this granddaughter.
"I'm walking on two legs," Cui Yingying said confidently.”
"On the one hand, the gentry clans need to unite and produce these things as soon as possible.”
"Secondly, we'll jointly fund the purchase of these goods on a large scale. These things are all in high demand.”
"Even if His Highness Wu Wang had prepared for a month, Yingying guessed that he didn't have much stock.”
"Next, we will sell them outside Chang 'an at a higher price. If we transport them to the grassland, we will earn more. "Moreover, before we sell it, we have to replace his veteran brand and make our own brand. We will soon develop the finished product. The King of Wu will find that no one outside Chang 'an recognizes the veteran brand!”
"This is not a matter of whether he wants to cooperate with us or not. It's just that he has no way of avoiding us Shi clan! The aristocrats in the world were like a net. Imperial power could not escape, and business could not escape this net.”
Cui Yingying said confidently. She was skilled in business and had the backing of the aristocrats. She really wanted to see how His Highness Ke would resolve her attack.
Dong dong dong!
At this moment, the sound of a gong came from the shop.
Cheng Chumo stood up and turned the business sign to the closed side. He said loudly,"I never expected everyone to be so enthusiastic about buying. The goods that were shipped into the city today have all been sold out. We will reopen in the afternoon. I'm sorry, everyone, I'm sorry…"
"He's worthy of being the genius of our Cui family. Yingying, you guessed right. Li Ke doesn't have enough goods!”
"Ah Wu, go and invite Dugu Yanwen and the others. Tell them that this old master has something to discuss with them.”Cui Zongbo said with a smile.
When Cui Zongbo personally appeared to network with the Chang 'an aristocrats.
Li Ke and his brothers were discussing in the main shop.
"Big Brother, why aren't you buying anymore? We still have a lot of finished products in stock!”
" Hunger marketing, this is the idea that Big Brother came up with," Wei Shuyu said with a smile,""Only by making people feel that our things are not easy to buy can we stimulate their desire to buy.”
"I understand. The more you can't get it, the more you want it.”
" The aristocrats in Chang 'an even threatened to boycott our goods. It's ridiculous. The Dugu Family, the Dou Family…Just now, those guys sneakily came to buy our goods.”
……
The sales were unprecedentedly good, making the brothers very happy.
After the opening ceremony in the afternoon.
In just half an hour, they had sold out the amount that was originally planned to be sold today.
Cheng Chumo wiped his sweat and said with a smile,"Big brother, this hunger marketing is really great.”
It was the same on the second day.
On the third and fourth day, Li Ke and the others secretly increased the daily amount, but the sales speed was even faster.
"Big brother, why do I feel that something is not right? I saw a few familiar faces in the other branches today.”On the evening of the fifth day, Zhangsun Chong rushed to the main shop to find Li Ke.
