The patent rights for the briquette stove were finally auctioned away by Tang Feng from the Jingchu Chamber of Commerce for 58 million taels of silver!
As soon as this price was announced, the whole audience was in an uproar.
Nearly sixty million taels!
What is this concept?
If exchanged between ancient silver and modern soft girl coins, this would be equivalent to 30 billion!
Is it worth it?
Many people may think this is crazy.
But Liu Zheng felt that it was not a loss.
Tang Feng won't feel any loss either.
In this historical moment where the Little Ice Age will last for nearly two hundred years, the emergence of briquette stoves will definitely become the mainstream heating equipment in the Longyan Dynasty.
If this market is monopolized, it will definitely be quite scary.
and.
Pricing power...
What Tang Feng values is pricing power!
Next time in Liaodong, people went crazy.
Liu Zheng established a department in Liaodong specifically responsible for patent application and protection.
Patent Department.
The Patent Department is affiliated with the Ministry of Commerce, so as long as patent matters are involved, all are commercial activities and economic activities. But there are violent agencies behind the scenes to protect their rights and interests. This is actually what Liu Zheng has always wanted to do in Long Yan.
But he didn't dare.
There are two reasons.
First, he was worried that the court would think that he had a monopoly on some industries, which was too sensitive. Once a monopoly occurred, it was still very taboo in the feudal dynasty.
Second, Longyan is an absolute feudal dynasty and an official-based society. What everyone pays attention to is getting rich together and getting rich in harmony. In Longyan, there is no soil to protect patent rights.
Therefore, he could only take it to Liaodong for testing.
That's right.
In Liu Zheng's mind, Liaodong has become a testing ground for freedom, special handling, loose policies, or, in other words, advanced policies.
This is the power given to him by Xie Tianyao, and he cherishes it very much.
really.
Liu Zheng's patent department suddenly ignited the ice and snow of Liaodong.
Whether it's these businessmen or local men.
Everyone went crazy and came up with their own "inventions" and creativity.
True.
Liu Zheng has his own scientific research institution.
But he always felt that the power of the people was infinite.
Especially in this day and age.
What he wants to mobilize is the subjective initiative of these people in Liaodong.
Get dry.
Let's play.
Get crazy.
...
"Crazy, crazy...how much silver? How much silver?"
In Jinghua.
When people heard the news, everyone couldn't sit still.
A small briquette stove, the patent rights were sold for 60 million?
Previously, this was the financial income of the Longyan Dynasty for three years!
Three years!
All of a sudden, people were numb.
The people who were still impeaching Liu Zheng before were all dumbfounded.
When he went to court the next day, Xie Tianyao seized the opportunity and scolded him.
Can’t Mr. Liu?
Can you do it?
News has come back from Liaodong. This time, Liu Zheng made up for the 50 million taels of silver the imperial court lost due to the tea trade! This also means that the tea trade issue has officially fallen to Liu Zheng.
superior.
Crazy.
It's hard for people in Jinghua to understand.
One by one, they began to curse this rich man from Jingchu. They even began to wonder if each of these rich men had been brainwashed by Liu Zheng?
Sixty million...
So much money poured into it.
Can it really be taken back?
Cult!
No!
They must have been coerced or brainwashed by a cult!
These people still did not miss the opportunity to impeach and doubt Liu Zheng.
