But even if you know multiple languages, deliberately speaking in a language that others don't understand in front of others is a kind of disrespect.
Even if we need to discuss confidential content, shouldn't we be able to discuss it in private, but in front of others, even the target? Isn't this blatant bullying?
What’s even more ridiculous is that these people are using the language of someone’s hometown and neighboring country. As a lover of mystery films and H_Game, how could I not be proficient in this language!
Therefore, the discussion between the two people in front of them, which they thought no one could understand except their companions, was clear to Lin's ears. And maybe Fen also understood it. Because Lin didn't know all the languages in his hometown.
It was demonstrated in front of the former lich and his apprentice.
The two female apprentices have learned it, but they just don't know what level they have reached. With Fen's wisdom, it shouldn't be difficult to understand.
But both Lin and Fen have a tacit understanding of pretending not to understand. Someone is still suppressing laughter in his heart, while trying to stop Fen from losing control, which is very sad. It's just that such behavior falls on others
In his eyes, it seemed like a very good relationship between a man and a woman.
Princess Xindu and Count Guha of the Haider Empire remained silent, and even felt a little aloof from the matter. Only the dynasty and his companions had a minor dispute.
Although on the surface the three of them were just communicating normally in a language that was unfamiliar to others, and it didn't look like they were quarreling at all. But the sarcasm in their words about whether to fight or not to fight made it feel like two camps were fighting.
Criticize each other instead of acting like a group.
Do they also have internal problems? This was the only thought in Lin's mind while watching a big show.
Compared to the princess, who seemed to have little control over her except for her noble female status, Lin set her sights on Count Guha, who had the presence of an old god.
Although Lin is relatively unfamiliar with the Hydel Empire, it is only compared to the Gwana Empire and the Vader Military State. He is not completely ignorant of the Hydel Empire.
At least one thing Lin knows is that a person who can serve as the captain of the most important airship legion must have very good performance in terms of political strength, tactical thinking and physical force. Or at least have good tactical skills.
Only with outstanding performance can you stand out and serve as the captain of an airship. An idiot with mixed qualifications will never be able to sit in this position.
It is absolutely impossible for such a person to appear in a group of guests just for fun. So Lin asked politely: "Your Excellency, you know that the Kingdom of Silk came to investigate today, and the empire also knows about it.
"
With a playful expression on his face, Count Guha nodded and said succinctly: "That's true."
"So what is the attitude of the empire? Does it support all the actions of the Kingdom of Silk?" Lin was not sure whether the earl in front of him could understand the language spoken by the people who were arguing, so he asked tentatively.
It is a pity that the airship captain is indeed a talent of the Haider Empire. He excused himself: "I am just following my emperor's order to use the airship to carry distinguished guests from the Kingdom of Silk to Ace."
It's just tower power. And this is not the first time this happens. As long as the leader of a subordinate country or the head of a big noble makes a request, the emperor will send an airship as a escort and vehicle for travel. This is to protect important people in our empire from traveling.
normal measures. However, I have no position on their purpose. I am only responsible for protecting them."
Only those who are confused will believe such words. Without enough benefits, will the empire send an airship to deal with the subject country? It is impossible to send a paper plane!
And the words are not without loopholes that can be misinterpreted. If there is a armed conflict between the two sides, will Count Guha intervene? It is not wrong for him to have no stance on the matter, but as long as the fight starts, he will take sides, and it does not matter whether he has a stance on the matter.
.
"But -" Count Guha made a twist, attracting someone's attention, "- From my personal standpoint, it's not that I can't understand the concerns of the Kingdom of Silk. After all, the ancestors of the Kingdom of Silk were at the same time as the Empire.
There has been an agreement that one of the conditions for them to protect their silk monopoly is that the technology will never be passed on to the outside world. Once the technology is passed on to the outside world, it means that they will no longer have the advantage of monopolizing the silk production technology. By then, as long as they are interested in this technology,
People can do their own research. Your Excellency, who knows how to do business, should understand what this means."
What kind of weird patent protection system is this? Protection is the patent holder’s own business. Once exposed, the patent will be directly disclosed and no longer subject to any restrictions or protection.
Someone was dumbfounded, but they also understood the idea of the Kingdom of Silk. Under such conditions, as long as it is confirmed that their silk-making technology originated from the Kingdom of Silk, I am afraid they will face being forced to use this exclusive technology
It’s an open situation. I won’t go into details about how much profit will be lost in this.
It was precisely because of the possible losses to the Kingdom of Silk in this matter that Lin became more vigilant.
In fact, the whole thing that silk has always been monopolized by the Kingdom of Silk in Lost Land is very incredible. Because the technical threshold for making silk is not high, as long as there are suitable silkworm seeds and land that can plant mulberry trees, there are conditions to develop the silk industry.
.Coupled with the huge demand and numerous participants, it is even more difficult to maintain confidentiality.
Throughout the dynasties in my hometown, the technology that can be preserved has a major premise, that is, very few people know how to do it. Even if one person dies, the technology is lost. In modern times, there are still people trying to restore the Tang Mo sword. The sword forging technology of Ou Yezi in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period has been captured.
Blind. But with the amount of technical personnel involved in a product like silk, if you want to keep it secret, you can only rely on others to be blind.
Even with so many difficulties, the silk of Lost Land has only been produced in the Kingdom of Silk for hundreds of years. It is impossible without a big force behind it to protect it from wind and rain. Then the problem is, among them, Haider
What did the empire gain? If the silk was forced to be disclosed because of its relationship, who would lose? Who would gain? What would be their respective positions?
In other words, the problem before someone now is not as simple as a 'thief', but a major event at the national industry level. If one person is not handled well, he will be pushed into the whole puzzle, or at least a whole.
The opposite of the entire silk industry would be troublesome.
And to be fair, the solution to this matter cannot be made public without hesitation like someone did with forums or mathematics in the past. Let people who want to profit from it witness how a good way to make money was smashed to pieces.
Lin originally did not want to disclose the method of making magic silk.
Not to mention the difficulty of making the jacquard machine, the magic silk produced was not enough for his own use. Lin Ke never thought of using it as a commodity to make money. At most, it would be used as a major bargaining chip in the exchange of interests. For example, before borrowing the energy pool of the magic tower,
Reshaping the physical body of Stone, the former commander of the Guards, was an opportunity bought with magic silk.
Moreover, judging from the clues currently known, some people in the Kingdom of Silk may have the same origin as myself. For example, the brown-haired and brown-eyed dynasty, and the veiled princess of Xindu. I am thinking of a romantic relationship.
, even if you don’t want to profit from it, you don’t have to ruin the entire transaction.
However, there is another trap in this trouble. That is, since the technical threshold for making silk is very low, how can you prove that your technology does not come from the Kingdom of Silk?
This is not a matter of explaining that you have never been to the Country of Silk, or that you have had contact with people from that country. To convict an ordinary thief, you must first have evidence to prove the fact of theft and the stolen goods.
But how to prove something like technology? Someone can think of it, so others must not think of it? This is of course impossible! Just like the calculus dispute between Newton and Leibniz, as well as the patent laws and basic rules of countries on the earth
It's the first to seize the opportunity and the first to win. No matter whether latecomers learn from their predecessors or not, they will be regarded as plagiarism or infringement.
Judging from the results, it is a fact that I can make silk, and the Kingdom of Silk can make silk first. In the eyes of those who don't know, I have stolen the silk-making technology from the Kingdom of Silk, and I have achieved today's results.
So if you want to solve the trouble at hand, the best way is to prove that your method of making silk is completely different from the method of the Kingdom of Silk. As long as you get their approval, it should be fine.
Thinking of this, Lin said: "Everyone, please listen to what I have to say."
The three people in the dispute stopped talking, including Princess Xindu, and looked at the magician who was about to speak.
Lin cleared his throat and said, "Everyone, do you know how to make silk? You don't have to be proficient, just know enough."
The dynasty guarding the princess in Xindu introduced at this time: "The skill of making silk is a skill that every person in the country of silk knows. And the princess is a well-known embroiderer, who can embroider all kinds of gorgeous and delicate patterns.
It’s like, well—”
Wang Chao pointed at Fen's Qingyun uniform,
"——The embroidery patterns on this lady's body are easy for the princess."
Fen didn't express anything about the word 'Madam'. Well, that's a good thing. Otherwise, her appearance of sanity about to break would be really scary. However, Lin paid more attention to another term mentioned by Wang Chao: embroidered girl.
.
Of course, someone would not be regarded as a "show girl" because of language differences. Besides, it is not for the emperor to choose a harem. A princess is a show girl. What kind of way is this.
Although there is no such title in the history of my hometown, it does not mean that there cannot be a lost land.
To prove that his technology did not originate from the country of silk, Lin thought he could start with the classification of silk.
Silk can be regarded as a general term for silk products, but in fact, under this big project, there are many different types of small projects.
What Lin makes using a jacquard machine can actually be called 'brocade'. For example, the famous 'Shu Brocade' in his hometown is one of the best. This uses complicated changes in longitude and latitude threads and color changes in silk threads to make the production
Complex patterns are formed during the process, and the finished silk product can be called 'brocade'.
Judging from the name of the Kingdom of Silk, the part-time job of Princess Xindu, and the silk native to Midi that Lin had seen before, it can be judged that the silk products produced in the Kingdom of Silk are the most primitive form of silk - silk.
This is a plain fabric with a plain weave. There are no complicated techniques in the weaving process, it is just vertical and horizontal lines. All the patterns on the silk are done after the fabric is completed, that is, through embroidery.
.
This point of difference is what Lin intends to use to convince people.
