"Poaching..."
Ying Wuji seemed to be thinking about something. In fact, he had expected this day a long time ago.
After all, the Mohist Guild has manufactured many things for him, and each of them contains great value. If the leader of the Mohist school is a real saint, he won't have to worry so much.
But it had to be that bastard Ji Dong.
Ever since he knew that Ji Dong was a leader of the Mohist school, Ying Wuji had already prepared himself to be fleeced.
It’s just the difference between how much you grab.
He smiled and looked at Wu Dan: "What is the specific situation? Please tell me in detail."
"Harmful!"
Wu Dan pounded his thigh, his eyes filled with annoyance: "The situation is not complicated, it's just that someone is mentally ill and thinks that you have many tricks that benefit the people, but you keep them for the benefit of the country, which is not in line with the principle of universal love. I scolded him at the time, saying that you are not a Mohist, so why do you have to follow the Mohist rules?
What's more, these things don't belong to the Mohist Guild!
Using other people's things to do Mohist things.
Isn't that a way of expressing the feelings of others?
I warned them from the beginning not to mess around.
But some people are stubborn and some things have leaked out.”
"oh……"
Ying Wuji nodded. Some things were known by too many people, so it was impossible to keep them completely secret.
You can't always expect them to respect patent rights.
He smiled faintly and asked, "What was leaked?"
Wu Dan said in a deep voice: "The movable type printing technology has leaked out like a sieve, and it can't be stopped at all! There are many people on the concrete assembly line, and the types of raw materials should have leaked out, but the specific formula is only in the hands of the core circle. Brother Wuji, how do you say this matter should be handled?"
“No need to deal with it!”
Ying Wuji waved his hand and said, "Just let them steal it. It's impossible to prevent it anyway. The key question now is how many people hold this view?"
He really didn't care much.
As for movable type printing, at most one could make a little money in bookstores. Now that the overall price has been pushed down, even if someone steals it, the business will immediately go into a state of involution.
Now the only function of this thing is to lower the threshold of literacy.
Even if it flows into other countries, it is likely that they will not make much money by promoting cultural popularization like the Kingdom of Li, and may even have to lose money.
As for concrete...
It’s a bit troublesome because the ingredients have already been determined and it’s just a matter of time to crack the formula ratio.
If other countries use this thing to build one wall after another, it will indeed be more difficult to deal with them in the future.
However, although this thing can build city walls quickly, it also requires a large number of excellent craftsmen and extremely strong resource mobilization capabilities.
It is more dependent on the political system of each country.
If it were placed in the Chu State where internal strife was constant.
Same craftsmen, same concrete recipe.
To build the same wall, they would have to spend three times more time and money.
What’s more…
They don't have that many craftsmen yet, and it's hard for them to spend so much money on paintings.
The ones who really made money were the Jade Soap Factory and the Glass Mirror.
The former was done secretly by the people of Gansu and Li, and neither side knew the full picture. As long as Gansu and Li turned against each other completely, he could take everything back to Li at any time.
The two key skills of the latter are in the hands of Wu Dan and Zhai Yun respectively. Both of them are trustworthy. In addition, the output of glass mirrors is not large, so there is basically no possibility of leakage.
Holding two big money bags in his hands, Ying Wuji was not panicked at all.
Wu Dan thought for a moment and said, "Although there are quite a few bastards like this, they are not many, only about 10%. I have counted all the people who can be named. What do you think we should do with them?"
As he spoke, he took out a scroll from his arms.
Ying Wuji took it and opened it, and found that it was filled with names.
He was a little surprised. He didn't expect Wu Dan to be so thoughtful now. He couldn't help but laugh: "Hey? I didn't realize it before. You are quite vindictive!"
"snort!"
Wu Dan cursed, "Why don't you bear grudges? These bastards couldn't even eat enough shit before they came to Li Kingdom to seek refuge with you. Now that they rely on you, their lives have become better, and they have official positions, but they are turning their backs on you? Brother Wuji, what do you think we should do? Should we kick them out?"
Ying Wuji smiled and waved his hand: "Since it has already been leaked, what's the point of kicking them out? Kick them to another country?"
Wu Dan was a little indignant: "Then should we keep them?"
"Keep!"
Ying Wuji nodded: "Anyway, they can only be exposed to these at most, and the harm will be limited even if they stay. Now it is obvious that someone wants to persuade them to leave, so I will do the opposite.
When you go back this time, just let them know that I already know about this matter, but don't cause them any trouble."
"this……"
Wu Dan sighed: "Brother Wuji, you really can endure what ordinary people cannot."
Ying Wuji curled his lips and said, "Not really! It's just that in the eyes of some people, the formula is very important, but in my eyes, people are more important. Brother Danzi, I won't ask anything else. If the leader of the Mohist School asks all the Mohists in Li to evacuate, what percentage do you think will evacuate?"
Wu Dan's face was a little solemn: "It's hard to say! In principle, everyone in the Mohist Guild must obey the orders of the boss, but the Li Kingdom is giving too much, and other countries can't give so many powerful positions..."
Ying Wuji asked: "How far will it go?"
Wu Dan thought about it, held up five fingers, and said uncertainly: "Fifty percent?"
50%...
Ying Wuji's eyes were slightly stern. If the Kingdom of Li could keep the remaining 50%, then there would naturally be no serious damage.
