Chapter 1,471 Saving Zhang Dun

Shaanxi Polytechnic has been engaged in science and engineering for many years, and Ningxia Sanlu has developed mining, metallurgy, coinage, textiles, and military industries. Therefore, Sima Guang, who has been staying in Luoyang, is not completely unfamiliar with science and engineering now.

In his mind, science and engineering can indeed accomplish many great things that cannot be accomplished by manpower, but that guy... can really be described as a money-burning person.

He agreed with the literature, history, economics and philosophy, and even agriculture, medicine, fine arts, music, and mathematics in the Capital University. However, when he saw the physics, chemistry, astronomy, and Su You's "Memorial" mentioned in Sima Guang was so frightened by the scale that he didn't dare to look down any further.

Gao Taotao said: "I dare not hide the source of funds from my husband. When Situ decided to split up Sitong, he donated all the shares he and Mrs. Guo retained in it to the Royal Charity Fund, and then the fund allocated it as a special fund. Build these colleges.”

"I won't tell you the specific figures. In short, it is more than enough to build a college. It can even provide study allowances for serving teachers and provide advancement rewards for academic talents."

Sima Guang was already a little frightened: "I will never dare to ask about the amount of private property, and I will never doubt Su You's intentions, but I still want to ask, Su You...has he proposed anything else? Require?"

"Yes." Gao Taotao said: "He wants the court to implement a law to ensure the profits of these talent agencies. He also said that when the Liao people come this time, they will definitely covet the sharp mechanical weapons of the Song Dynasty. He wants to use this He issued a decree and fought with the Liao people...Liang Weijian."

Liang Weijian presented another chapter, but fortunately this time it was much thinner.

Sima Guang briefly read through the "Patent Law and Regulations", which generally covered patent rights for trademarks, inventions, technologies, and literary works.

It is still very rough. It basically explains what a patent is, what a patent right is, as well as the overall norms for its acquisition and elimination, implementation and protection, rights and obligations.

Sima Guang said: "This decree does not touch on the fundamentals. I think it can be done or not. However, the "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" compiled by me is based on the country's salary and the wisdom of everyone."

"If there is a patent, it should belong to the country and the late emperor. I dare not ask for any cents."

"As for the inventions of other ordinary people, I think they also have a protective effect, but there is a problem."

"what is the problem?"

"Under the whole world, is it the land of the king? On the shore of the land, is it the ministers of the king. I would like to ask, what if the heavenly family wants to take the patent of the common people?"

Gao Taotao said displeasedly: "How can this be unreasonable? The purpose of Situ's enactment of this law is to protect the nobles of my clan, because there are many valuable patents that require concentrated manpower and a large amount of money. Only my clan can do it. "

"This method was just established in order to protect the initial investment and encourage them to research technology."

Sima Guang refused to give in: "But what about the future? I don't talk about it now, but in the future, if a commoner invents a valuable patent and the Heavenly Family wants to use it, how will it be dealt with?"

Gao Taotao said in a deep voice: "My husband doesn't want to implement this method?"

Sima Guang said: "There are some people in the world who are extremely talented but become subordinates. For example, Su Mingrun's mirror-making skills. If he is a commoner and the royal family wants to get his method, how should he deal with it?"

Gao Taotao was really a little angry: "Back then, Su Mingrun showed the mirror in Daxiangguo Temple. He was still a student, but did my royal family take it away?"

Sima Guang just looked at the curtain and said nothing.

Only then did Gao Taotao react and said angrily: "That was given by the Lord of Huarong County to the Queen Mother Guangxian, and was produced in the inner workshop to be used for the Royal Charity Fund!"

But in the end, Gao Taotao finally felt guilty and said, "In the opinion of the scholar, this method will eventually become a method of ruthlessly exploiting the people?"

Sima Guang resisted and said: "The Huarong County Jun brothers and sisters are upright and upright, so this is not the case. However, if someone can arbitrarily seize the patents of ordinary people on the grounds of 'contribution' in the future, then the legislative basis for this law will not exist, and this law will

There is no need to do this, otherwise it will inevitably become an evil method of plundering and plundering by the powerful."

Gao Taotao must protect the current interests of the powerful, and she is also confident that most patents in the future will be controlled by the powerful.

After pondering for a moment, he finally gritted his teeth and said: "Then make it clear in the law that there will be no distinction between the four peoples of the Heavenly Family! No one is allowed to seize the interests of others without reason during the patent period!"

There was no sadness or joy on Sima Guang's face, he just bowed and said: "In this way, I dare to follow it. However, I also want to ask the Empress Dowager to add: If the Heavenly Family wants to abolish this article in the future, then it should completely abolish this law.

.”

Gao Taotao was almost pissed off by Sima Guang, because he had no trust in the Tian family.

But isn’t it because I value Sima Guang because of his persistence? I finally restrained myself: “Just follow the bachelor!”

If Su You were here, he would definitely applaud Sima Guang's performance. Congratulations to the Empress Dowager and Bachelor Sima, you have become the founders of modern Chinese civil law!

In the thousands of years of Chinese history, the first law finally appeared that stipulates that even the emperor must be restrained and must not seize the rights of others!

However, this law was issued to protect the interests of the nobles. In the early stage, the nobles of the clan protected it, and even the imperial power could not easily change it.

When the number of protectors of this law increases and gradually decreases to the common people, then it will be necessary to have the power to save the day.

Moreover, science and technology is the primary productive force, and the persons protected by this law are the representatives of the primary productive force.

When these representatives are powerful enough to influence a country's economic foundation and superstructure, even if the imperial power dares to reach out, it will be an unwise move to confront the clan, ministers, and the world.

However, in the autumn of the eighth year of Yuanfeng, all parties involved, except Su You, had not yet realized the great significance of the promulgation of the Patent Law.

…

In August, Yi Chou issued an edict: "Whenever the case prosecutor comes, those who have outstanding talents will be known by their reputation."

In Guiwei, the edict was issued: "A new Mu Ma Superintendent was established in the government boundary, and the Longitude System was promoted to establish a Mu Ma Division, and the two were dismissed."

Ji Chou, Sima Guang wrote a letter to legislate in the sixth year of Xining, urging the people to plant mulberry trees. If they do not follow the order, they will be punished by imitating the house millet and covering the lining. Hu Chang, a citizen of Chuqiu, and others said it was inconvenient.

The edict was dismissed and a fine was imposed.

In Xingping County, people's fields were turned into pasture land, and the people also spoke out and issued an edict to return it.

…

In the south of Bianjing City, Meishan Club, Sanhua Building.

Jiangnan He Guitou and Qin Guan have put on a new play called "The Brocade", which will be performed at Sanhua Tower today. Su You specially invited Zhang Dun to watch it at Sanhua Tower.

This play actually comes from the storybook "Dong Yong Meets the Immortal". In the early stage, Dong Yong was a scholar, including vulgar plots such as his father's illness, borrowing money, selling himself, winning the first prize, and giving away his son. Later, there were also vulgar contents such as molestation.

Su You attached great importance to the development of drama, so he communicated the plot of the later "The Match of Heaven" with the two. In his story, Dong Yong is a cowherd boy, a super prostitute, and there is a golden finger.

Lao Qing Niu then counterattacked the Seven Fairies of Bai Fumei, but in the end the beautiful love was no match for the class difference. Even if it chased it to the sky, it was isolated at both ends of the Milky Way by the Black-hearted Queen Mother. In the end, the magpies built a bridge and became husband and wife once a year.

This is actually a great fusion of several stories. Changing "Dong Yong's Encounter with the Immortal" into "Interstellar Prequel" based on Qixi Festival folk customs made He Guitou and Qin Guan feel that their outlook on life had been completely washed away. It turned out that the story could still be written this way!

The Cowherd boy counterattacked the immortals! He didn’t know anything, and he won all the way just by relying on his golden fingers! Can you believe it?!

It should be said that the writers at that time still had a certain bottom line. The setting of a novice like Su You made both He Guitou and Qin Guan feel a little unable to digest it.

In the end, due to the torture of conscience, he worked hard to give Dong Yong an aura of "ultimate filial piety", which moved the seven fairies to commit themselves to each other, and finally brought the script back to the correct path of guiding the values ​​of the Song Dynasty.

Liangzhe Road is now the birthplace of market culture, and the people's material life is already very good. The governor of Hangzhou even made a bloody statement: In the eighth year of Yuanfeng, we will completely eliminate the fifth-class households and tenants in Hangzhou!

After becoming materially well-off, spiritual pursuits follow.

He Guitou and Qin Guan first wrote a storybook based on Su You's design ideas and let storytellers test the market's reaction.

The results were well received and the venue was sold out.

Now they were confident, and they carefully created the contemporary Xiaobai drama "A Fairy Match", which was regularly broadcast every night at the Nanhai Guild Hall opposite Hangzhou Bosi.

In accordance with the performance model of later dramas, the new drama introduces a series of new elements such as background props and lighting, plus many new musical instruments such as piano, drums, and bamboo poles, as well as musical instruments from the Western Regions, as well as music and dance elements based on Dunhuang archaeological results, creating a scene on Liangzhe Road.

Huge sensational effect.

Hangzhou now has a very large floating population, and the places where the floating population is most concentrated are around Shibosi and Nanhai Guild Hall.

The new drama is the most perfect in terms of plot, music, lyrics, stage design, and presentation. It actually caused a terrifying situation in Hangzhou where "everyone was empty to watch the new drama."

However, the content of this play aroused dissatisfaction from religious people. Although the Queen Mother did not appear in the play from beginning to end and only had background sounds, she undoubtedly became the biggest villain of the play.

Taibai Jinxing, who makes jokes and admonishes cleverly, is as witty and humorous as Dongfang Shuo, and has become the clown in the play. Although such a huge contrast between people and people has won the love of the majority of people, it also makes people in the religious circles feel uncomfortable.

However, the power of the monarchy has always been higher than the power of the gods in China. The people's attitude towards religion is very different from that in the West. Everyone likes to hear and see things, and gods and ghosts have to give in.

However, there are compromises everywhere. The result of the compromise was that He and Qin changed the name of the play from "The Fairy's Match" to "The Brocade". Finally, they followed the boat all the way north and boarded the most elegant Bianjing City.

The stage of Sitong Hall, an entertainment venue.

In Su You's eyes, this is not a simple drama, it is a manifesto that forcibly instills humanity into the gods and allows the divine authority to bow its noble head to the secular world.

The stage was set up on a huge indoor golden carp pond. Su You and Zhang Dun were sitting in a luxurious box on the second floor. There were fruit drinks and ice-cold wine in front of them. There were servants pulling ropes to move the box. The ceiling fan above rotates, sending cool breeze to the boss.

Coupled with beautiful drama, it is a rare enjoyment in the world.

However, Zhang Dun had no interest in this. When the two of them were together, they were still talking about government affairs.

In terms of ranking in the imperial court, the current big bosses are Cai Que, Han Jiang, Zhang Dun, Sima Guang, Lu Gongzhu, and now perhaps Wang Shao of the Military Aircraft Promotion Department should be added.

However, the Military Aircraft Department is a military strategic staff department, which is aloof from the administrative department. It is similar to the role of the military commander in later generations as a provincial standing committee member. It generally follows the secretary's opinions and does not interfere with administration.

The first three are all new members, but Gao Taotao's meaning is already very obvious, so the rabbit's tail cannot grow.

The Empress Dowager wants to use the old party and the reformists.

This will undoubtedly lead to dissatisfaction and backlash from the new party.

Su You's purpose is to let Gao Taotao use all three factions. In this case, everyone must make compromises.

Zhang Dun is a capable man, and he is also very proud. Looking at the world, he can see that a slap in the face is not enough, and he has to curl up two fingers.

One is Wang Anshi, one is Su You, and the other one is none other than himself.

Wang Gui proposed the crown prince in front of Zhao Xu. Zhao Xu could not speak at that time. It was Zhang Dun who drafted the text, Wang Gui showed it, and Zhao Xu approved.

Later, the Empress Dowager was asked to listen to the government behind the curtain. Zhang Dun drafted it, Wang Gui presented it, and Zhao Xu agreed again.
