Chapter 157 Technology Diffusion
The carriage was moving forward, and first sent Ye Shi to Yuelai Hotel - not bad! Yuelai Inn has been upgraded to Yuelai Hotel. Mao Geng personally arranged for Ye Shi to stay in, and then got on the carriage and sent Su Zhiyi and Su Zhiyan to the residence that had been prepared long ago.
Su Zhiyan sat in the carriage with a canopy, and curtains were also drawn on the windows on both sides. However, through the gaps in the curtains, you could still see the situation outside.
Su Zhiyan felt like a deer. After finally reaching the Special Zone, she finally got to be with Mao Geng. She was very excited and a little nervous. The Special Zone in front of her was different from what she had seen before. Including Lin'an, it seemed that it was not as clean and tidy as here.
In particular, on the road, you can often see some people wearing strange close-fitting outfits passing by. The close-fitting outfits seemed to be tied on the waist, and tightly tied on both wrists. The left and right sides of the chest were buttoned tightly by several round buttons. Such clothes are really unprecedented.
Soon, the carriage passed through a transparent wall door. This transparent wall has always been praised by Mao Geng. West China Construction Company had built a similar wall before, and Su Zhiyan had seen it a long time ago. Through the white decorative cylinders, you can see the house inside.
Not far from the fence, the carriage was parked outside the door of a house. There was also a transparent wall around the house, but it looked a little shorter. The flowers and plants in the yard seemed to have just been transplanted. The whole house was clustered with new clusters and new styles. The styles were similar to those of the Diaoyutai in Lin'an, but the glass windows were obviously different. I guess that was the glass windows using copper profiles. It is said that after the Diaoyutai store was smashed, they would be transformed into glass windows with this kind of copper profiles.
When I entered the door, I saw that the floor was covered with ceramic tiles. Like the Wenfu in Lin'an, the living room was as usual with a circle of sofas, surrounded by a large coffee table. It was not necessarily surprising.
When the maid led Su Zhiyan to the bedroom on the second floor, what Su Zhiyan saw at first glance was a strange big bed. Simply put, it was a bare bed with neither carved carved frames, no bed roof, nor tents, and even the edge of the bed. The brocade quilt was not neatly stacked, but was spread wide and large on the bed, hanging down from three sides.
One must be the new gimmick that guy Mao Geng made!
Su Zhiyan immediately blushed a little, thinking about the scene of a bed without a tent like this, and the scene of the wedding night!
However, when Su Zhiyan saw the dressing mirror, she felt better. A big dressing mirror was placed not far from the bed. Su Zhiyan looked into the dressing mirror and a hint of shyness flew out of her face.
A ray of sunlight shone through the white window screen, and a golden color appeared on the tiled floor, which also made Su Zhiyan's heart feel a little warm. The floor-to-ceiling curtains were exquisitely made and felt very warm.
It seems that Mao Geng has really put some thought into it. It is obvious that this is a new house. Mao Geng knew that he was coming, and in a hurry, he could do it like this, well, it's great.
However, this place can't be a new house! I heard that the Chief Executive is very big and glorious. When will it be my turn to be the hostess?
This is a unique courtyard in the newly built commercial and residential area of Gaojian Company. To be precise, this commercial and residential area has only six houses built, one of which is a model building dedicated to people's visit. The water tower was just built a few days ago. The tap water hurriedly picked up the pipe yesterday. Today, it will not let the Chief Executive lose face in front of his future wife.
Su Zhiyan later learned that the first group of residents in this community has only been considered as the first group of residents since she moved in.
That night, when Su Zhiyi went to attend the welcoming banquet held by Mao Geng, Su Zhiyan arranged everything in her new home. There were a lot of dowry shipped here, but many of them were not in line with the style of this new home, so Su Zhiyan had to laugh.
Mao Geng greeted Ye Shi and Su Zhiyi, and Zhao Han was also here. Han Tuozhou and Lu Jiuyuan naturally accompanied him. Those who were ordered by Zhao Han were Jiang Bokui transferred from Taipei and Guo Xixian, who led troops in the Special Administrative Region.
Today, as soon as Ye Shi arrived, he met Zhao Han. Zhao Han learned about Ye Shi's intention and learned that the three generals of Lin'an would arrive in the special zone soon. Zhao Han felt that the three soldiers who were coming were very famous. Their ancestors were Yue Fei, Wu Ting and Guo Hao. Such a family background made people feel stressed. Zhao Han thought that the court hoped to create the three tiger generals, so if there were five tiger generals, wouldn't it be even more pleasant to see it? So, at today's banquet, we met two martial artists Jiang Bokui and Guo Xixian.
After drinking for three rounds of dishes and five flavors, I got to the top priority, that is Mao Geng’s marriage.
Lu Jiuyuan is the oldest among the middle-aged people. He started with Lu Jiuyuan, and Zhao Yan strongly advocated it. In addition, Su Zhiyi was present to represent the woman, and the others followed the flow, so Mao Geng naturally would not object. In the end, Zhao Yan decided to set the day of great joy in December. Lu Jiuyuan, who was here, understood the principles of Yi, and calculated with his fingers, he decided that December 26th was a good day. So, several people clinked their glasses and a wedding event was settled. At this point, Su Zhiyi felt that he had lifted a burden and felt relaxed.
Next, when talking about the court's three generals Yue Ju, Wu Xi and Guo Ni came, everyone not only had some opinions about Wu Xi, but also praised Guo Ni, who is well-known. Although Yue Ju, although he is not as popular as Guo Ni and Wu Xi, since he is Yue Fei's grandchildren, and Yue Fei's grandchildren are only two of them, there are only two of them. Yue Ju, as one of the two generals, is not an ordinary person. Therefore, most people still have high expectations for Yue Ju.
Only Mao Geng was not optimistic about Guo Ni and Wu Xi. Although Zhao Han was optimistic about the three, he was afraid that the three of them would be difficult to control, especially Wu Xi and Guo Ni. Therefore, he just hummed haha, but he took the opportunity to praise Jiang Bokui and Guo Xixian.
Then everyone also understood some clues. It turns out that the Duke valued the obedient and easy-to-command Jiang and Guo!
Originally, the three generals should have arrived earlier than Ye Shi, but in turn, the three generals arrived a few days later. The reason why they had been dragging them down was because many of the imperial guards who were dispatched to Taiwan to train soldiers insisted on leaving after the New Year. Therefore, although the three generals wanted to set off immediately, due to the resistance of the imperial guards, they had to modify the plan. After some mobilization, they finally collected 1,500 imperial guards, and the three generals led 500 to Taiwan in advance, and then collected the remaining 6,000 troops after the New Year.
It is said that military orders are like mountains, but the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty have always been like this. The two emperors of Jingkang once wanted to voluntarily give up Bianjing and move south, but the imperial guards were greedy for Bianjing and refused to move, and the emperor had no choice but to use these imperial guards.
Then we talked about the trial of the SAR's new currency. Ye Shi's trip was considered an imperial envoy from the court, and came specifically to supervise the SAR's new currency system. In response, Mao Geng bluntly told him that it was less than twenty days before the New Year, and this matter could not be carried out. Given that it was necessary to start the New Year after the New Year, Mao Geng believed that Ye Shi was idle and was idle, so it would be better to just give part-time lectures and study, and at the same time, he wrote articles for the "SAR New News".
After hearing what Mao Geng said, Lu Jiuyuan immediately thought of something and quickly interrupted:
"Duke, the senior official thinks that Lord Ye can also take charge of a special zone. If you don't take precautions for this matter early, something big might happen."
Zhao Yan smiled and said:
"Mr. Lu has any major issues, please tell me."
"I heard that some people are constantly asking about the technology here, and some people are even preparing to spend money to bribe the workplace here and want to steal technology, especially the technology of steam engines. There are definitely not one or two people who covet it. I am afraid that some people will covet technologies such as gunpowder soon. The officials think that relying solely on the power of the special zone may not be able to completely curb the stealing of technology, and the court must pay attention to it. The officials think that they can ask the court to ask Lord Ye to take the lead in formulating laws and regulations to prevent problems from happening. How about it?"
Lu Jiuyuan, after saying this, Zhao Jian also felt that this was true. There are many merchants here, and their sense of smell is very sensitive. Some people are rich. I am afraid they have been making various technical ideas for a long time.
"What Lord Lu said is reasonable, I will report to the Ming court as follows. Please be careful with Lord Ye!"
Ye Shi is also a person with ideals and pursuits, so naturally he would not learn from the cunning person who plays the ball. He nodded immediately. But then he said:
"Mr. Mao, you see, can you prevent plagiarism of technology?" Ye Shi is from Yongjia, Wenzhou. He thinks that at least in Wenzhou, if there are any technical tricks, it is difficult to prevent it.
Mao Geng thought to himself that the ability of the Chinese people to copy the village is unparalleled in the world, and it is impossible to defend against it by relying on visits. Mao Geng had to say bluntly:
"Precaution is a must. It is really necessary to ask the court to promulgate some relevant laws according to the Patent Law of the Special Administrative Region. I would like to bother with this matter! However, since ancient times, it is better to be relieved. I think from now on, we will start selling technology."
"Selling technology? No way!" Zhao Jian felt that this statement was unreasonable.
"Yes, we need to sell technology and appropriately spread some technology. Of course, it is limited to those that are not important, and those that we cannot get production capacity but we need someone to supply. We master the most critical technology. If someone wants to find a way to make money, we also have to give him opportunities so that capital will not find a way out and end up taking risks."
"What is capital?" Ye Shi asked.
Damn! I missed it again!
