Traveling through time and space to become a child, supporting the family by catching fish and shrim

The dead end that Chen Lang mentioned was the deviation in his previous understanding of copyright.

At that time, Chen Lang always felt that once a new invention was targeted by powerful people, ordinary people would not be able to keep it. They would either watch the other party make money with their invention, or hand over the formula with tears.

This was also the psychological trauma left on Chen Lang by the fact that Yan Xiaoguo had previously targeted the recipe for moldy tofu.

But when he learned that someone wanted to make money by COSing Xie Qinghuan, Chen Lang realized that the things he was worried about could be solved through the government.

There is no need for the creator to put this pressure on himself; he can just transfer it directly to the government.

Taking the music law as an example, Chen Lang paid a sum of money to the government office to insure the music he wrote. In the future, if anyone sang the music for profit without authorization, they could just go directly to the government office without having to show up in person.

Since the government has received money from the original creator, it will definitely stand up for the original creator and stop this behavior.

At the same time, the government office can also obtain extra income through fines, which is equivalent to making double profit. Why not do it?

In addition, this law can also allow those who possess unique skills to pass on their skills with peace of mind, reducing the situation where the master starves to death after teaching his apprentice. After all, the copyright of this unique skill has always been in the hands of the master. Even if the apprentice has learned it, he has to pay the master if he wants to use it.

The new regulations can effectively promote the circulation of technology and make the market more active.

More importantly, formulating this regulation can also solve the problem of redundant officials in the government offices.

The problem of redundant officials in the Great Yan Dynasty was quite serious, and there were many officials in the government who were "drawing salaries without working".

The copyright department is a brand new department that can accommodate these officials who are drawing salaries without working and give them work to do.

Of course, the regulations are not all advantages; there are many loopholes and areas that need improvement.

But what can I say? If you can’t even take the first step, all the problems that follow will be just illusions.

After listening to Chen Lang's suggestions, Chang Anmin made a decisive decision to implement these regulations.

His political ambitions and the emperor's arrangement for him to come to Linshui forced him to do so.

After this little episode, the Oiran competition continued.

Although the cheongsam and the new song had a great impact, Pang Qiuyan still failed to win the title of top actress.

The top courtesan finally belonged to Qimeng.

The Ma family has put in so much effort, there is no way they will let the title of the top courtesan fall into the hands of others.

Pang Qiuyan was also very satisfied with the result.

I got the limelight and gained face, but I didn’t get that damn courtesan. What a win, isn’t it?

Chen Lang did not attend the subsequent thank-you banquet for the courtesan. He held his drowsy daughter in his arms and went home holding his wife's hand.

When I was leaving, I saw Xu Mengru, whose face was flushed, and whispered a few words to her.

Xu Mengru glanced at Li Xiuzhi, nodded in agreement, and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Chen, I will definitely make the slit of my cheongsam very high."

Chen Lang said: "Not only should the slit be high, but this part should be hollowed out...it will look better if it is exposed."

Xu Mengru snorted and turned away.

Chen Lang scratched his head. Why was he so angry? He hadn't said anything wrong.

Oh, I was wrong.

The chest is hollowed out to reveal the cleavage.

Xu Mengru doesn’t have this thing.

……

Although the Oiran Contest is over, Linshui County is still very lively.

Especially at the gate of the county government office, there are long queues every day.

They all came to the government office to register their copyright.

Those officials who had been drawing salaries from the government office for years finally felt the taste of being busy.

Through registration, the government office came to know that there were so many masters hidden among the people.

Many of the "skills" they registered left the officials in the yamen dumbfounded.

But it is not just the officials in charge of copyright registration who are busy in the yamen.

The captains of police and constables are even busier than them.

The assassin who assassinated Yelu Yuan is still at large.

If we don’t catch these people, we won’t be able to explain to the Liao Kingdom.

Therefore, these constables and captains are the busiest people in the county government.

That day, Chen Lang took the spring and small iron balls forged by the blacksmith, a hose made of ox tendon, and a nozzle made of cork, preparing to assemble a small self-defense device.

Li Qing was quite curious about this thing because Chen Lang said that this thing could make a grown man lose his fighting ability in an instant.

But the parts in Chen Lang's hands don't seem to have any lethality at all.

Chen Lang took out two bamboo tubes, one long and one short. The joint between the two bamboo tubes was a simple mortise and tenon structure. They could be fastened together tightly by sticking them together and twisting them.

At the same time, the top of the short bamboo tube is a layered cork, which is small at the top and large at the bottom, and they are put together.

A small cork with some holes poked out by a needle.

After a whole meal's work, Chen Lang successfully installed the spring and other components into the bamboo tube.

"Let's see how it works." Chen Lang let out a long sigh, poured some water into the bamboo tube, closed it, and pressed down the cork nozzle.

puff...

Water spurted out.

Chen Lang clenched his fists and said, "Mission accomplished!"

Li Qing watched the show for a long time without understanding how this thing could hurt people: "Brother, what are you doing?"

Chen Lang said: "Sprayer."

Li Qing was stunned: "I don't understand."

Chen Lang explained, "Sister Qing, imagine this: if this bamboo tube wasn't filled with ordinary water, but poison, and you were fighting with someone and sprayed it into their eyes..."

Li Qing suddenly realized: "Oh, so that's what's going on."

"Your thing is quite interesting."

"But it's too big. According to you, this thing should be classified as a hidden weapon. Hidden weapons require the element of surprise. Your sprayer is too big, and the other party will definitely notice it when you take it out."

Chen Lang said, "This is easy to solve because the tube body is the easiest part to make. The difficulty lies in the spring and the hose."

"I'll just find some smaller bamboo tubes and have the carpenter carve some joints for them."

Li Qing said, "Let me do it."

Chen Lang said, "Sister Qing, you are also good at carpentry."

Li Qing sighed slightly and said, "When I was bored in the mountains, I would carve something to pass the time. After a long time, I became proficient."

Chen Lang said, "Okay, I'll send someone to find Xiao Zhuguan right away."

While Xiao Qi went out to look for the bamboo tube, Chen Lang discussed with Li Qing what liquid to pour into the bamboo tube so that it would make people lose their fighting ability after being sprayed out.

Originally, Chen Lang planned to use dogwood powder and strong liquor, but Li Qing felt that the effect was not enough, so she asked Chen Lang to go out and buy herbs, and she wanted to personally prepare some poison powder for Chen Lang.

The spray prepared in this way can quickly make an adult man with martial arts skills lose his fighting ability as long as it is sprayed on the face.
