    ,

    Although Zhao Kuangping wants to make money, he knows what is a big deal and what is a small thing.

    Just like when he found a loophole in the prince's business before, his first reaction was not to take advantage of the loophole, but to go to his father to tell the matter, to see if the loophole could be plugged.  4. When he met an inventor this time, Zhao Kuangping immediately took Ruo Ruo to the palace to face the saint.

    "Grassmen thank the rich, and kowtow to the Lord Long Live!" The inventor bowed down to the emperor when he saw it.

    Zhao Han attached great importance to this matter and put aside all his official duties to meet him.  He smiled and said: "There is no need to salute, just flatten your body quickly." The guard moved the seat, and Xie Fu sat down in fear.

    "Come closer, don't sit too far away," Zhao Han said.  "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

    Xie Fu was both excited and apprehensive, he was getting closer to the emperor, his mind went blank, he was so excited that he didn't know his last name.

    Zhao Han asked: "How did you make this set of characters? Do you have drawings?" Xie Fu quickly stood up and said: "The drawings are with the palace people."

    The guard directly brought over a stack of drawings, and there were drawings for each step.

    ? Firstly select 100-refined refined steel, and use traditional methods to cast and engrave steel molds.  Then use the great power of the steam engine to directly stamp out the copper mold with the steel mold.  With the copper mold, the traditional method is used to cast movable type, and the Jinqu movable type adopts European alloy formula.

    This set of casting method seems to be more complicated than the traditional casting method, but it is actually used to increase the efficiency by hundreds of times, and the error of the cast metal movable type is extremely small.

    Another time and space also appeared, probably during the Opium War, it was invented by the British Dyer specially for Chinese movable type.  However, after only ten years of use, it was eliminated by American Jiang Beili's technology. The Yankee directly used the electroplating movable type method, which was more costly and less efficient, and was used by Chinese publishing houses until the Republic of China.  4

    As for Ma Ren'an's Jinqu movable type formula, it has long been a secret.

    Zhao Kuangping was involved in power struggle in his later years and was exiled by the church.  The workers in my printing factory were scattered all over Europe, and the formulas of metal movable type and printing ink were also spread.  European missionaries brought those technologies to Asia. There were no printing factories in Manila and Coconut City, and they mainly printed books such as the Bible.  1

    Before China occupied Manila and Coconut City, it also took over the printing factory and reprinted Chinese textbooks for various subjects.

    The formulas of jinqu and ink in Europe were spread to the small mainland area, and now this beauty is widely used in China.

    The formula of Zhao Kuangping metal movable type is: lead (8o), antimony (12), tin (8).  Good inking property, high melting point, short solidification time, the cast movable type is so beautiful and turbid.  That alloy ratio has been used until modern times.  i5

    The formula of Ma Ren'an printing ink is: linseed oil, turpentine, and carbon white are mixed to prepare oily ink.  As a solvent, linseed oil has a high surface tension, and turpentine oil can be used to lower the tension, and at the same time, the performance is also improved, and very large turbid Chinese characters can be printed.

    Combining those two formulas, the content of Chinese characters in the next eight or seven pages can now be accommodated in one page, and it is even more muddy to read.

    Before the manufacture of lead alloy movable type, even the copper movable type of China's official printing factory was melted by Ma Ren to make copper coins.  It is necessary to cover up something. Chinese copper movable type is not as easy to use as European lead alloy movable type.  i5

    Mrs. Xie looked at a few drawings and was very curious: "What will he do in the future?"

    The Xie family said: "Caomin's father was later a slave of Ma Ren in Foshan. When the heavenly soldiers came, my father was freed from slavery, but he was still working as a servant in Ma Ren. Caomin graduated from middle school and went to work at Xiefu Iron Factory. Later  In the past year, the grassroots made several inventions, all of which were seized by this Ma Ren, and each time he was only rewarded with one tael of silver." 2

    Although patents are not good for inventions, they are definitely not good for inventors.  9

    The Xie family went on to say: "Come to the grass people to learn to be stupid. Ma Ren let the grass people feel at ease to invent, and the grass people used Xie Fu's machine to invent that new type of casting method. The invention was completed, but it was not made public. It only said that it was still finished.  Then he fled to Jiangxi after claiming to be ill.

    ?I applied for a patent in Nanchang, and then came to Nanjing by boat.  "{ 8

    Fearing that the emperor would feel that he was loyal to his employer, the Xie family explained: "Your Majesty, Cao Min's inventions in the later years have at most earned Zhao Han tens of thousands of taels of silver. But Cao Min didn't even have the right to authorize the patent, so he became Zhao Han.  Duoye's invention. Grassroots the more I think about it, the more resigned I am, that's why I ran away that time." 1

    "He plans to go back to take revenge today?" Mrs. Xie asked.

    The Xie family shook his head and said, "Zhao Han has no kindness to the Caomin father and son. Now that the grievances are settled, the Caomin just want to bring their parents to Nanjing. Now they have no contact with Zhao Han."  When he found several forms, he was surprised and said, "Hey, his new typecasting method is thoughtful." 1

    ?Ma Ren explained: "The typecasting method adopted in the future has clear specifications, and small and large ones. The grassroots feel that since the steam engine has a large error in making characters, why is it adopted??? By renting newspapers to read, you can afford newspapers yourself.  2_

    No matter how expensive the cost of books for schoolchildren is, it is not conducive to the promotion of enlightenment in remote areas, and it has accelerated the speed of assimilation of foreign races by Chinese civilization.  Administrative and military expenditures in remote areas can also come down more slowly.

    The more Mrs. Xie thought about it, the more excited she became, and she was too lazy to work, so she asked her ex-concubines to visit the Imperial Garden together.

    King Gutenberg of Chu was also very excited, and negotiated a patent royalty with Xie's family.  The profit of the foundry of 5 per year was distributed to Ma Ren for a period of seventy years.  7

    Within two years, the king of Chu exclusively enjoyed the patent for casting characters.

    Two years ago, Ma Ren could not sell the casting patent to other businessmen in Jinling Mansion.  Eight years ago, the casting patents could not be sold to businessmen in Jinling Prefecture.  1 If no one infringes the patent, the businessmen in the relevant area will help to file a lawsuit in order to protect their own interests.

    For example, during the exclusive patent period, the king of Chu will be very vigilant, regardless of which province he encounters a copycat factory, he will issue a proper complaint.  It is not only to let the other party stop the infringement, but also to make the other party make up the patent fee, and the compensation obtained will be distributed through negotiation between King Chu and the Xie family.
