Chapter Thirteen Mr. Rutte

Yang Rui's German is not very good, but he still understands the general idea. It seems that the other party is also a chemistry enthusiast. He has been in politics and does not forget his hobbies. However, he doesn't know how boring the foreigners in the concession are. In this era, foreigners who come to China are basically single, and only a few people are accompanied by wives. In the concession, except for horse racing twice a year, repeated plays that are bored, dance parties with few dancers, and hunting from bandits in the inland China, there is no more entertainment.

Of course, if you don’t care about the comments from outside, you can find a prostitute from San Francisco, Austria or Romania. A woman who is a temporary partner should live a happy life - the premise is that you are not short of money - but this is not suitable for a Mr. Rutte, who is a noble and diplomat, so he regains his hobbies during the depressed days of the Far East. In the past few days, he saw the recruitment of chemical engineers and noticed it. After a week, he saw the recruitment advertisement, and he wrote a letter and sent it.

Foreigners wrote letters to find jobs and wanted to know the specific work content. If they could not find a full-time engineer, this part-time chemistry professional could also consider it. Yang Rui decided to reply immediately, but it was still difficult to write a letter to explain the chemistry problems clearly. So he found a German dictionary in a bookstore on Simalu. After more than two hours, he finally wrote the letter. The chemical names that he really couldn't write were either in English or expressed directly in chemical formulas.

The letter was sent a day after Mr. Rutt replied. He was very surprised at the invention of a brand new seasoning in the instrument hall. He was very surprised and disbelieved. He was very familiar with the process of acid dissolution and precipitation, and could have very good suggestions. He could even recommend some equipment suppliers. He wrote a lot of chemistry in the letter, as if he had finally found a soulmate who had to express his long-suppressed thoughts. At the end of the letter, he expressed his willingness to meet the inventor at the consulate at 2 o'clock the day after tomorrow.

After reading the letter, Yang Rui explained the general idea to everyone. Everyone thought about it. Yu Huizu was older and after all, he was mature in his work. He said, "This foreigner is still a consul. Isn't the consul the foreigner's official? Ask him as an advisor, he will come whenever he wants to come, and leave whenever he wants to, won't he coax us?" In fact, everyone has such concerns. Everyone knows the actions of foreigners very well. If they coax us once, it may not be known. Seeing that everyone has such a judgment, Yang Rui also felt that

It seems very unsafe - this world is either a rule of law society, or a rule of law society, and fraud is not uncommon. What should I do? Technically concealing him, according to the chemical level shown in Thaksin, it is difficult to obtain a patent? Now it is done by China. Zhong Guanguang got the patent document transferred from Sheng Xuanhuai a few days ago, and Yu Zixun went to Japan for a long time. He probably has registered a company and is applying for a patent. Only Europe and the United States have not started yet.

Yang Rui thought for a while and said, "Let's do this, we still go to the Germans, but today we go to the law firm to find a lawyer, patent application matters, and German matters. In this way, we can minimize the risks."

Yu Huizu and Zhong Guanguang did not have a deep understanding of lawyers and thought lawyers were just lawsuits. They understood lawyers as lawyers in the Qing Dynasty. Yang Rui had no choice but to explain that these foreign lawyers not only sued, but also some of them specialize in handling affairs for others, called affairs lawyers, such as auctions, business transactions, and family property. Anyway, there are many businesses, and some of our current things can be entrusted to him to do, which is much better than us coming forward ourselves.

In the afternoon, Yang Rui replied to Mr. Rutte, telling him that he would go to the appointment on time. After sending the letter, he found a Gaoyi law firm. The British inside were not surprised by the arrival of a yellow man. At first, he thought he was Japanese, but later he heard Yang Rui explain that his Chinese had no adverse reactions. He looked like he was doing business. An assistant received him and introduced the lawyers in the office. The lawyers in the concession were all opened by British people, so they were naturally British. In the early days, there were only one to two lawyers in the office. Now, with the development of the concession and the prosperity of commercial activities, the number of employees in the office has begun to increase.

There are fourteen lawyers in Gaoyi Firm, of which only three appear in court attorneys, and the others are lawyers who serve individuals or corporate clients like Yang Rui. The annual lawyer fee for a famous part-time lawyer is 300 to 500 pounds. If you are a general lawyer, then more than 100 pounds are enough. The price is 1,000 yuan in silver dollars. Yang Rui had no choice, so he chose a young lawyer named Brown among the many lawyers because he had served a British domestic industrial company for three years in his resume, which was exactly what Yang Rui needed.

The next thing was to sign the employment contract, and then Mr. Brown exchanged work matters. Mr. Brown was a middle-aged man in his thirties. His beard and silky glasses made people feel very inconsistent, but his professionalism made Yang Rui feel very satisfied. Although more than a hundred years later, a lawyer is still a lawyer, and it is only the law.

In fact, Mr. Brown was fooled by a friend to come to the Far East to make a fortune. Before 1880, speculation was prevalent in Shanghai, and foreigners who came here could easily make a fortune. In the past decade, the market has become more and more formal and competition has become increasingly fierce. Many foreigners have frequently gone bankrupt, and Mr. Brown and his friends are obviously here. After the company went bankrupt, the friend went back, but Mr. Brown stayed. It was not that he liked Shanghai very much, or that he wanted to make a comeback. The real situation was that he borrowed a lot of money before coming to the Far East, but now he has gone bankrupt and has become a pauper. If he can't pay back the money after returning, his reputation will be discouraged, so he can only stay in Shanghai and live with the meager subsidy from the firm.

Mr. Brown prepared all the documents needed to apply for a patent based on the information provided by Yang Rui that afternoon, and then in the evening he wrote a letter to his family in the UK - so that the letter could be sent with the patent mail, and he could not pay the high postage - in the letter he told his wife that he received the first commission, which was an advanced chemical company with a promising company, and he believed that the days ahead would gradually get better...
