I Am Not an Ant Thief of the Three Kingdoms Chapter 698: Craftsman is the foundation
After the exam, although most of the candidates still don’t know how they did in the exam, and it will take 10 days to know the results, these tens of thousands of candidates have relaxed and have been working hard for more than half a year. Whether these people think they have done well in the exam
Whether good or bad, they all invited their friends to drink and have fun. These people themselves had money, which actually caused a wave of consumption boom.
Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying did not join in the lively activities, but followed his wife to start the final assembly of the sewing machine!
Huang Yueying had already completed the sewing parts, but the power device had not yet been perfected. But after Pu Yuan introduced the structure of the pedal threshing machine, the pedal sewing machine had already been formed in her mind. She just didn't have time to perfect it!
After the exam was over, Huang Yueying began to perfect her idea, and Pu Yuan happened to be a senior blacksmith. He used simple machines to help Huang Yueying create the parts she imagined.
Three days later, the world's first sewing machine was assembled under the command of Huang Yueying and in the hands of Zhuge Liang and Pu Yuan!
When Huang Yueying saw the assembled sewing machine, she immediately took out the cloth she had prepared and sewed a gown for Zhuge Liang!
Zhuge Liang was surprised and said: "What a fast speed!"
Although Zhuge Liang has never sewed clothes, he has also seen Huang Yueying sew clothes. It usually takes several days, but now it takes less than one stick of incense!
Pu Yuan was even more surprised and said: "Sister-in-law, you are going to make a fortune! This is dozens of times faster than my mother sewing clothes. This is simply a machine that every woman needs, if the price is not too expensive.
, almost every family will need it! At first, Cai Qiao only more than doubled the efficiency of the loom, and she collected millions of dollars in patent fees every year. If she charges patent fees for this sewing machine, I am afraid that every year
My sister-in-law can get more than tens of millions of dollars!"
There are so many people in Daqian who have made their fortunes through inventions, and the most profitable one is of course Cai Qiao. First, Xu Wei wants to set an example, and second, the growth of the textile industry will drive an increase in the number of textile machines, and these only require
Anyone who used Cai Qiao's patent would be given money. Cai Qiao kept charging less because of her public position. If Xu Wei hadn't asked her to set an example, she wouldn't have wanted to take the money anymore.
In addition, many people have also invented some convenient gadgets. Of course, they do not make as much as Cai Qiao, but they have also become millionaires, so today Daqian is very concerned about their inventions and creations!
Zhuge Liang was surprised and said: "There are so many?"
Although he had heard about Daqian's patents and Cai Qiao's, after all, he had never really lived in Daqian and had no special understanding of patent law. He only knew that you could make money by inventing and creating in Daqian!
Pu Yuan smiled and said: "Of course there are so many. Brother, you are good at math. You can do the math yourself. A sewing machine costs 10 yuan. If I make a 1 million sewing machine, it will cost 10 million yuan. And Daqian has thousands
Ten thousand households each need a sewing machine, so my sister-in-law would have to charge 100 million yuan."
Huang Yueying laughed and said: "I'm talking nonsense here again. Although this sewing machine is simple, it is already very difficult to make thousands or tens of thousands of units a year. If you want to have textile machines in every household, don't make it for hundreds of years!"
Pu Yuan said with a smile: "Sister-in-law has no idea about the speed of our manufacturing machines. I can make hundreds of thousands of sets of this armor in one year. It doesn't take much effort to really make this sewing machine. As long as my sister-in-law makes it, Once this sewing machine is authorized, machinery factories all over the world will rush to produce sewing machines!"
Then he said: "Look at my brain, I can make more money if I produce sewing machines at home!"
Then he said: "Brother, you and your sister-in-law should just open a factory that specializes in manufacturing sewing machines. I am a blacksmith and can make tens or millions a year by opening a blacksmith shop, while my sister-in-law's sewing machine costs several thousand." If you make one unit for the price of a year, you can make tens of millions of dollars at the very least!"

Although Pu Yuan looks like a silly boy in the eyes of Zhuge Liang and others, he is still a small factory owner and knows how to run a factory better than Zhuge Liang and others! He also knows better than Zhuge Liang how to do business in Daqian!
Zhuge Liang's eyes lit up when he heard this. Now the Zhuge family has been defeated, and the relationship they managed among the noble families has completely disappeared as Da Qian uprooted all the noble families in the world.
Now his eldest brother is re-establishing the Zhuge family's foundation on the land outside Jiaozhou. Now he has joined the general Liu Bei again and is preparing to expedition to Tianzhu. Most of the Zhuge family's wealth has also been taken away by Zhuge Jin. Zhuge Liang If you want to take root again in Jidu, you will need the help of money. Even his eldest brother will be better off with his help in Dagan. It can be said that Zhuge Liang wants to make money now the most.
And if the sewing machine developed by Huang Yueying is so promising, then it will be no less than a timely rain for the current Zhuge family!
After Zhuge Liang made his decision, the next day the three of them brought the steam engine and the simple drawings drawn by Huang Yueying to the patent office in Jidu to submit the patent!
Holding the patent document, Pu Yuan said: "In this way, the sewing machine will belong to my sister-in-law in the next 15 years. If other people dare to imitate my sister-in-law's sewing machine, we can take the patent document of this sewing machine to the Yamen and sue them, ensuring that they will lose their money. Go bankrupt! Otherwise, just give money to your sister-in-law!"
Huang Yueying said: "Does this mean that everyone in Daqian who uses Cai Qiao's patented textile machines will have to pay a sum of money to Cai Qiao?"
Pu Yuan nodded and said: "This money is usually paid by factories that produce textile machines, but her patent is about to expire!"
Huang Yueying laughed and said: "I have made tens of millions of dollars in more than ten years. Even if the patent expires, she still makes money! If she keeps this secret by herself, her family will make hundreds of hours relying on textile machines, and I am afraid they will not make such a profit." If you make a lot of money, this can only happen in Daqian. In Dahan, I'm afraid his name won't even appear in the history books, let alone making money."
There is no way around this. In ancient times, technological improvements were not valued at all. Everyone knows that Huang Daopo improved the cotton spinning machine and made cotton cloth popular, but what is her real name? No one still knows.
Zhuge Liang also lamented: "No wonder Daqian's new equipment appears frequently. If the craftsmen are treated so favorably, how can the craftsmen not work hard!"
Thinking of this, Zhuge Liang suddenly felt like he had seen the light of day. The Han Dynasty ruled the world based on the noble family, and now Daqian ruled the world based on craftsmen. If he became a famous master craftsman in the world, the status of the Zhuge family might be higher than it was during the Han Dynasty. Even higher, becoming a craftsman may be the only way for people like them to integrate into Daqian!
