Not far from the entrance of the Chu Restaurant.
Li Si sat in the carriage and asked softly,""You followed closely? Was he sure that His Majesty came directly to this restaurant after leaving the palace?”
"Lord Li, this lowly one is 10,000 percent sure that His Majesty has definitely entered this restaurant!”
"Alright, go back and receive your reward."
Li Si lifted the curtain of the carriage and carefully looked at the entrance of the eatery. After a while, he saw Ying Zheng walking out of the eatery with Meng Yi.
Li Si quickly closed the curtain and muttered to himself,""What's so attractive about this restaurant? He actually made His Majesty abandon all the important officials and come to this small restaurant?”
He claimed to be Ying Zheng's number one trusted aide, yet he knew nothing about the recent changes in His Majesty, which terrified him.
After Ying Zheng had walked far away, Li Si changed into casual clothes and walked into Chuji Restaurant.
Smelling the rich wine fragrance, Li Si nodded."That's right, this is the place!"
This wine fragrance was very similar to the wine fragrance in the royal study!
……
Holding a bamboo slip and looking at the crooked handwriting on it, Chu Han couldn't help but complain,"Stop pretending! He even used a private seal. Forget it if he used a private seal, but he even used a single word Zhao?”
Chu Han guaranteed that he was definitely not complaining because his crooked signature and Old Zhao's standard and high-end seal formed a sharp contrast.
He only vaguely felt that Old Zhao seemed unwilling to tell him his full name, so he was a little worried.
Although Old Zhao was the best choice after several observations, the human heart was unpredictable!
"Unfortunately, there's no intellectual property protection law now. Otherwise, I wouldn't be so conflicted!”
Li Si, who had just walked into Chuji Restaurant, did not even have the time to take a look at the environment before his ears pricked up.
The intellectual property protection law?
Was there a technique in this world that he didn't know about?
" Yes." Li Si looked at Chu Han and cupped his hands." Shopkeeper, what is the intellectual property protection law you mentioned just now?"”
Chu Han put away the bamboo slips and looked up at the sky.""What did I say? I didn't say anything!"
" What?" Li Si was stunned before he broke into laughter." Waiter, bring me four of your most expensive dishes and a jug of wine!"”
"Shopkeeper, do you remember what you just said?”
Another rich man!
Chu Han's eyes lit up and he laughed."Hey, I remember now. I did say something just now.”
Li Si's eyes flashed with disdain, but out of curiosity, he still waved his right hand.""Shopkeeper, why don't you sit down and have a chat? Eh? What is this?"
Li Si was stunned when he saw the table and chairs.
Chu Han asked Li Si after he sat down." These are the tables and chairs. I invented the seat and table. Do you think they are useful?"”
Li Si nodded lightly.”
Chu Han smiled." The intellectual property protection law I mentioned just now is to protect the rights and interests of the inventor so that the inventor can continue to enjoy the benefits of the invention. For example, I spent a lot of effort to invent this table and chair, but others can learn and imitate it at a glance. Is this fair to me?”
Li Si frowned slightly." It's just a business matter. Why is there a need to regulate it by law?"”
"What if a craftsman developed a better smelting and forging technique?" Chu Han shook his head. Would it be fair for him if he was casually copied by others? Would there be other craftsmen willing to study their skills? It was common for disciples to starve their masters to death!”
The disdain in Li Si's eyes intensified.""It's just a matter of craftsmen. Why is there a need to enact laws?”
Chu Han slammed the table and said loudly,"Wrong!" He was gravely mistaken! Your horizons are far inferior to His Majesty's! Do you know the 'Letter of Expulsion?'"
Li Si was shocked. Just as he was about to get up, he heard a familiar word.
The Book of Expulsion?
Wasn't that the article he had written to His Majesty?
Suppressing his anger, Li Si could not help but ask,""Of course I've heard of it, but what's the relationship between the two?”
Chu Han said," Prime Minister Li said in the 'Book of Expulsion' that Mount Tai could grow bigger because it didn't give in to the soil. Rivers and seas could grow deeper because they didn't choose small streams. The king didn't reject many commoners, so he could show his virtue. What does this mean?”
" Of course," Li Si said subconsciously," I hope that Your Majesty won't expel the Foreign Dignitaries from other countries!"”
Chu Han shook his head again. Not to mention His Majesty, you are far inferior to Prime Minister Li. Prime Minister Li is clearly talking about the importance of talents. Apart from Honored Guests, aren't craftsmen talents that need to be cherished?”
"Is that so?" Li Si muttered in confusion.”
Was that what I thought back then?
Why didn't I know about this?
"Of course!" Chu Han slapped his thigh. Think about it, why does Great Qin always win?”
" Of course," Li Si said proudly." It's because of the military merit system that motivates soldiers to fight bravely!"”
Chu Han nodded and shook his head."Yes, but that's not entirely true. Apart from the quality of our soldiers, Great Qin's top-notch smelting technology, top-grade weapons, and unique assembly line system are also important reasons why Great Qin has been able to win consecutively.”
Li Si was taken aback before nodding slightly.
He was also a man of insight, so he naturally knew that what Chu Han said was true.
Chu Han continued,"But in recent years, have you seen any obvious improvements in the smelting technology and weapon quality of Great Qin?”
" I haven't improved for many years." Li Si shook his head.”
" What do you mean?" Li Si's eyes lit up." You mean to set up an intellectual property protection law to tempt the craftsmen to further improve their technology?"”
Chu Han nodded with a smile." You're a promising child. But that's not all. Not only craftsmen, farmers, weavers, and others will also be tempted by the benefits of inventions. They will constantly bring forth new ideas and research new technologies.”
"Moreover, with the protection of the law, they will be eager to let others use their new technology to raise Great Qin's overall technological standards!”
"We can also set a time limit for the protection of intellectual property rights, such as ten years or twenty years. After the time limit, the country can get this technology for free.”
The more Li Si listened, the more excited he became. In his opinion, the law was more about punishing criminals with heavy punishments. It was a kind of pressure that forced the people to not break the law.
However, he did not expect that the law could also turn into a driving force, pushing the people forward!
Li Si stood up excitedly and cupped his hands." Sir, you're a great talent. Please enlighten me!"”
Chu Han waved his hand casually." There's no need to be so formal. Listen to me continue bragging. Cough, cough, cough. Listen to me continue talking to you!"”
