Fortunately, Liu Tao probably remembered the structure of the keel, so he drew a drawing for the craftsman.Use the riveting technology of construction to design a reasonable keel, and then build the ship on this basis.

When Liu Tao came to the dock, the first large ocean-going ship had already come to an end.

For inspection and final decoration, a sea trial may be considered for a period of time at the end of the year, after all, it has never been built before.If there is no problem within three months, it will be formally adopted as a standard and large-scale construction will begin.At the same time, this ship will also start serving.

"I didn't expect you to fully understand the technology. I was very pleasantly surprised." Liu Tao met several craftsmen.

"The blueprint and structure given by His Majesty are very reasonable, and we will be able to build such a big ship." The master said excitedly. He is an old shipbuilder. He has built ships for 20 years and has never built such a big ship. .

This shipbuilding is not only a task, but also a challenge and a breakthrough.If you really build this boat, then the old boatman will probably be able to blow it for a lifetime!

When the imperial court sent people to find him and take out the blueprints drawn by the Han emperor, he didn't even need a salary, he had to join in.

"This kind of ship is just average..." Liu Tao looked at the ship. As an ocean-going ship, it is only a basic one. He probably has an impression of a more advanced one, but it is only an impression.

No one will read a lot of nautical knowledge specifically. The understanding of a ship is probably the appearance, what is going on inside, and the composition of the keel.Not to mention that most modern ships are made of steel.

Forget it in this era, for example, the corrosion-resistant paint is the biggest problem.Besides, there is not so much steel that can be squandered like this. Taking a step back, there is no offense, and steel ships must be used for defense.

"I'm sorry, but with my old abilities, I can only do this temporarily." Hearing this, the craftsman was not unconvinced. It is not surprising that His Majesty can come up with such a blueprint.

It's just that he has spent a lot of effort to achieve this level of understanding of shipbuilding technology.

After all, these days, most shipwrights are actually uneducated... Being able to understand blueprints is not so much an understanding of data as an understanding of ships.

Liu Tao found more than 30 old shipwrights, and only this 60-year-old old shipwright could understand.At his age, he couldn't even participate in the construction himself, so he could only use his rich experience to guide other craftsmen to build.

He even has no idea whether he has more lifespan to persevere until he builds the next bigger ship.

"After building this ship, other craftsmen have gained experience..." Liu Tao looked at the old craftsman, "At that time, are you willing to become the dean of the Dahan Royal Shipbuilding Academy and pass on your skills?"

The rich shipbuilding experience of old craftsmen is very valuable and cannot be just thrown away.Combined with Chinese and mathematics, Liu Tao is looking forward to whether the technology of the new generation of shipbuilders can go further.

"This..." The old boatman didn't know what the emperor meant.

"Your son can also enter the academy to teach, and his skills should be as good as yours." Liu Tao looked at the old boatman.

"I don't have any sons..." The old shipwright looked sad. He gave birth to three daughters, but none of his sons inherited his skills.In other words, it was because he had no son that he devoted all his attention to shipbuilding.

Sure enough, it's the same set of passing on males but not females... Liu Tao sighed, because I don't know how many excellent techniques have been lost.Of course, there is also the set of Confucian tricks and tricks, and the industry has never been able to develop.

After all, with the improvement of production technology, food production will inevitably increase, and food prices will drop.Why can't the well field system be restored? Because the production mode has changed, both in terms of farm tools and farming methods.

If we let everyone restore the production technology of the Spring and Autumn Period, the planting mode of that era, and the output of one mu of land is less than half a stone, then the well field system can definitely be implemented.

If the food cannot be sold at a price, then we can only start to consider other things.Doing business or producing some complex commodities is not only expensive, but also has the possibility of losing money.

Moreover, it takes human and financial resources and a lot of energy to understand the market conditions.In this way, the children of the family will have no extra time to study. How can they take the exam if they don't study, and how can they become an official if they don't take the exam?How can the family develop and grow without being an official? !

So after the Song Dynasty, even if the landlords could no longer simply control the price of grain, they still had other means.

For example, vigorously develop the textile industry, plant a large number of mulberry trees, and convert a lot of farmland in Jiangsu and Zhejiang into mulberry forests.In the final analysis, food is worthless, but silk is definitely valuable.

Leaving aside the absurd skills and obscenity, Liu Tao has become more and more disgusted with the word "heirloom" recently.

If we talk about poor children, they basically don’t make their fortunes by farming. For example, Jian Yong and Kan Ze don’t have any land, so how to farm; those who have some land are basically worried about life, and have no extra time to study; eventually they can farm and read. The family heirs are basically local tyrants and landlords, just aristocratic families.

Plowing is not farming by oneself, but a lot of fields at home, which can be hired to cultivate.Relying on farming to produce food and selling money to earn income, and then provide for their own children to study and study, the purpose is to obtain fame and fame, this is the "farming and reading heirloom".

"Teach a few disciples... If the excellent craftsmanship is lost, it is a loss to the country." Liu Tao said solemnly.

The old shipwright didn't know how his own craftsmanship could lead to the loss of the country.However, I can also feel that His Majesty the Emperor really values ​​his craft, and he was very excited immediately, and immediately expressed that he would do his best to cultivate it.

"Xianhe... What do you think we should do so that those with excellent craftsmanship can pass on their craftsmanship with peace of mind?" Liu Tao couldn't help but ask Jian Yong on the way back.

"The reason why I value my skills so much, even if I have fallen behind, I don't want to pass them down. In the final analysis, I am worried that my descendants will not have this skill and will not have enough to eat." Jian Yong didn't know how to answer, so he could only explain from the root cause.

Even if it is passed on to disciples, it is incomplete, because only one's own children can be complete.But in the end, there is no son to inherit, or the son is unwilling to inherit, so it is hard to say whether it is with resentment or helplessness that the technology is brought to the coffin.

It may also be because of embarrassment, unable to explain to the disciples that their teaching is incomplete, and they plan to re-teach.As a teacher's dignity, this kind of thing is not allowed to happen.What's more, the disciples usually leave separately, and it is not easy to find them back.

"In other words, it's not just a problem that can be solved by the patent law..." Liu Tao sighed.

Chapter 685 So money is also a problem

There are probably three to four problems in the patent law these days.

Inconvenient transportation is a problem, how to verify whether the patents applied in various places are my own technology?For craftsmen of the same genre, if one registers first, will the others be restricted from using this technique?How to verify that this technology is the technology on the patent?What if someone knows the patent law, but does not come to register the patent?

Especially the last question, even in later generations there are companies that do that.For example, the formula of Weigang, such as the formula of Coca-Cola puree...

In addition, there is a serious question: whether the technology that has been obviously backward is still allowed to register for patent.

If we want to promote the patent law, then these problems must be solved first.After the solution is completed, it is only a part of the patent law. How to promote it and how to supervise it is another problem.

The main problem is, how can the Patent Office ensure that the technology used by someone contains the patent registered by others?If others don't discover it, don't report it, and a professional craftsman inspects it, how can we be sure?

Determined, how to go to court, the people do not fight with the officials, just call the craftsmen to go to the lawsuit, that is a problem.Not to mention people who steal, bribe officials in private, and then add another job to the hidden guard.

Continuing on, the size of the dark guard will become larger and larger, and eventually it will become a collection of agents from the CIA and the Dragon Group.No no, when the time comes, it must be reorganized and formalized, otherwise it will still be like an underground organization.

"At present, we can only establish the Engineering College..." Liu Tao sighed.

"Wouldn't it be better to expand the enrollment based on Hongdu school?" Jian Yong thought for a while and replied.

"Didn't you say that I have forgotten that there is a Hongdu school." Liu Tao patted his forehead. Earlier, in order to deal with the criticism of the gentry, he opened a Hongdu school to teach some crafts and so on.

Now that school is still there, and it is running well in Bingzhou. It is actually a laboratory of new education in private.

Many imperial examination candidates in Bingzhou graduated from there, and then took the imperial examination after self-study for a period of time.In terms of admissions, Liu Tao also intends to increase the admission ratio of Hongdumen School graduates.

After all, in a sense, this is the real 'disciple of the Son of Heaven'.

It's easy to say, just spread the Hongdu school to the whole Dahan, and try to have one in every county. On the one hand, it will teach more advanced technologies, and on the other hand, it will collect and research more advanced technologies.

Sometimes being an emperor is not without benefits, the whole world is his, so if he wants to integrate the most advanced technology, he only needs to say, no craftsman dares to complain.

Of course, one must also be careful of the officials below. In order to make political achievements, those craftsmen are forced to give up their technology, which eventually leads to tragedy.

Everything has two sides, and there is always a side whose interests are violated.Later generations will always say that the overall situation is the most important thing, but just like the choice of railroad tracks, the lives of one person and five people are actually lives.

For example, the five next to him are all beggars, and the one next to him is Qian Xuesen, so who should we save?Another example is that the five people next to it are all sick, and they will die within two years at the most, while the healthy people next to them have a life span of four to fifty years.

Even more extreme, next to it are five scientists who may die within two years, but they are all Qian Xuesen-level scientists; next to it is a beggar who is healthy and has a lifespan of four to fifty years...

A policy like this may cause some people to leave their homes during the implementation process, and may even lose their lives.For example, re-employment after being laid off, some people are completely useless after leaving the factory, and they don’t know how to find a job again.

Liu Tao is not a saint either, and cannot guarantee that his policies are absolutely perfect.We can only do our best to avoid the tragedy as much as possible.It's just that if someone is really unwilling to save himself, then God probably will give up this person.
