Chapter 584 Craftsman Workshop
Fortunately, Xing and Ding Chun are both familiar with patent fees.
They had already heard about it when they were in the Royal Construction Office. Unfortunately, the Royal Construction Office did not implement it, so all they could get was basic salary and the "reward" from their master.
Some masters give more rewards if they are a little bit older.
But if the master is not generous and you have a taboo in what you do, you will not only reward or not, but may also kill you.
Fortunately, Xing became so careful because his biological brother made a taboo when he made something for a favorite concubine.
This incident had a great impact on Xingxing - it was better to do less than make mistakes.
As for Ding Chun, he was a man who was eager to stand up but couldn't find a way and had to stand up and take risks.
If you have cleverness, you have abilities, but you have no opportunities.
They will be sent out this time, and they are also "excluded" by other people from the Royal Institution.
It would be fine if there is no patent fee, but fortunately Xing and Ding Chun found that not only did they have no professional fee, they could not even compare with their "bonus".
At the Royal Building Office, the "reward" given there is uncertainty, depending on your fate, while the "bonus" here is clearly stipulated and posted on the wall. As long as you complete any task, you can receive it.
Perhaps it may not be as high as those masters’ “rewards”, but they clearly stipulate that everyone can get it. If everything is made and the rating reaches the standard, they can get it.
Ding Chun became more and more moved the more he looked at him: Why do you feel that this craftsman is doing better than himself?
To be honest, Ding Chun couldn't do these things designed by craftsmen, but he just didn't think about them.
If he was asked to come...
"I didn't expect that they were treated so well. Do you think it's true?" Ding Chun secretly poked Xing Xing's back while the person was not paying attention, hoping that he would give him some advice.
Fortunately, Xing couldn't say it well and said, "I don't know."
He stared at the things exhibited in the exhibition hall of the Yao Family Workshop, and vaguely discovered that many things that were popular in the capital and that the powerful people in the capital were actually made here?!
Although they look down on these gadgets, they think that what this is is, they can't be on the table at all, they are not exquisite enough, nor are they of class.
But the problem is, this thing is just likable.
I didn’t see many of the little masters in the capital, so many of them asked people to buy the palace. Do you take it out for fun in daily life?
In the palace, if any little master doesn’t have so many things in his hands, it’s “death”.
When Ding Chun was thinking about the issue of remuneration, Xing Xing was thinking about these "gategories". He wanted to figure out where these things were attractive?
If he figured it out, he wouldn't have been in vain.
After he returns to the capital...
Fortunately, Xing's eyes drooped slightly, staring at the things in front of him, thinking.
Fortunately, Xing ran to the exhibition hall of the Yao Family Workshop for several days.
Ding Chun ran a few times but didn't want to go anymore. He didn't know what Xing Xing wanted to do. Is it useful to stare at that thing all day?
"Why are you staring at this for nothing? Shouldn't we think about what to do in the future?" Ding Chun knelt his arm and said, "Hey, do you think his treatment here is really so good? I've been chatting with someone these days, and I heard several people say that the treatment here is good. Do you think the Yao family deliberately asked them to say that?"
"have no idea."
"I'm a little worried. You said, what does the Yao family mean if they deliberately asked them to say this? Do you want to keep us?"
"have no idea."
"Why do you know nothing?"
Xing Xing glanced at him: "Then what do you think I should know? Like you, I have just come here, and you are still chatting with people, saying this and that, I don't even have a person to inquire. Many of them are still listening to you, what do you say? "
"Uh..." Ding Chun choked.
Forget it, what's there to say about this wood?
It's useless to say it.
Ding Chun didn't want to pay attention to Xing anymore, and since that day, he hadn't come to see him for a while.
Just when Xing thought Ding Chun had a new goal, Ding Chun suddenly ran over with excitement.
"Happy Master."
Fortunately, Xing was stunned by Ding Chun's glowing eyes: "What are you doing?"
"I decided, I want to stay."
Fortunately, Xing frowned, not knowing what Ding Chun was talking about.
Ding Chun got closer: "They were working on a big baby recently. It is said that if they succeed, they can get a big bonus... I helped them solve a small problem, and they wanted to take me with me. With just this one, I can get this number."
Ding Chun gestured.
Fortunately, Xing widened his eyes.
"Hehe! Don't believe it, right? But this is true." Ding Chun told Xingxing with shiny eyes that this is just a bonus, but this thing was invented and really useful, and it may be more profitable than pigeon chess.
Because this thing is not a toy, it is a real thing that ordinary people want to use, just like toilet paper.
"What?"
"Hehe! I won't tell you."
Fortunately, Xing: "..."
If you don't tell me, what did you come and tell me?
Show off?
A few days later, Xing Xing knew the answer.
That day, the entire workshop gathered over and waited excitedly for Master Hongzhiyu to announce the answer.
Yu Hongzhi, the leader of Yao Family Craftsman Workshop.
Not long after Ding Chun came here, he heard many people praise it, saying that this master is very capable, including toilet paper, chess and cards, movable type printing... He was the invention and improvement of many things in the Yao family.
He is also the person with the highest income in the entire craftsman workshop.
It is said that the patents and bonuses that Master has received now are enough for him to spend several lifetimes.
Even if he could never invent anything from now on, the patents and bonuses alone would make him free and comfortable for the rest of his life.
But Master Yu is a craftsman. He knows how to mess with these things all day long. If he really wants to stop working, he doesn't like it. There is also a writer named Feng Junlang next to Master Yu. The master specially sent him over to Master Yu as an assistant.
Feng Junlang doesn't have to do anything else, he only needs to do one thing, that is, "record" all the inventions of Master and then compile them into books.
They don’t understand the matter of books, they only know that Feng Junlang has compiled three kinds of books.
One is "The Secret of Craftsman", which is only used to apply for patents and is not open to the public. It will not be opened to the public until many years later, when other people's inventions suppress this person's invention and prevent his technology from being kept confidential.
One is that their internal "Ming Shu" is only used for exchanges of professional talents and is also not open to the outside world. Unlike the former, this "not opening to the outside world" is only for people outside the workshop.
However, even the people among the craftsmen signed a confidentiality agreement and could not be disclosed to the public without permission.
One is the "Craftsman Studies" developed to the outside world, which tells the stories of craftsmen from ancient times to the present, and popularizes some "craftsman common sense".
Because the latter does not involve any confidentiality, if the materials provided are published in newspapers or magazines, they can still receive some bonuses, and there are still many craftsmen participating.
