Lin Siyu did not understand such a profound principle at first.
Fortunately, Zhao Sheng had helped her organize her confusion previously and summarized it to her, so she could answer Bai Wutong clearly.
Hearing Lin Siyu’s answer, Jin Linglong’s entire body went limp and she broke out in a cold sweat. However, Zhang Jing was still struggling at death’s door. He said to Bai Wutong, “Factory Manager Zhao told her. My wife just doesn’t know how to explain it!”
With that, he turned to Zhao Sheng with a pleading gaze, hoping that he would give him face on account that they were all from Youjia village.
Otherwise, deceiving the Consort and defrauding the Imperial Court would be a capital crime!
Zhao Sheng met Zhang Jing’s pleading gaze and sighed deeply. He said to Bai Wutong truthfully, “Consort, I didn’t tell Madam Lin these words, they were all her own thoughts.”
eyes were bright. How could she not see through Zhang Jing and his wife’s tricks? Moreover, if they could not be severely punished for stealing other people’s research results, he might be the one who would be tricked next time.
Zhang Jing sat on the ground in despair and questioned Zhao Sheng unrepentantly why he was biased towards Lin Siyu. He even wanted to frame Zhao Sheng and Lin Siyu.
However, before he could say anything, he was punched by the dark guard.
When the truth was revealed, Zheng Guo hurriedly apologized to Bai Wutong. “I had not been careful in my checks. Please punish me, Consort. ‘
The first rule of Bai Wutong’s establishment of the Research and Development Department was to strictly check the ident.i.ty of the reviewer and ensure that the products applied for the patent were personally created by the applicant.
In the end, there was a mistake in the first review.
Bai Wutong looked at Zheng Guo, who immediately felt a mountain of pressure.
Ultimately, this mistake was because there were no detailed rules and regulations.
said, “You will be deducted a month’s salary and receiving a warning for six months. Develop a detailed review plan and hand it to me for
The salary deduction and job warning was only temporary. Zheng Guo heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly kowtowed to thank Bai Wutong.
Bai Wutong looked at Zhao Sheng again. “Zhang Jing took the liberty to carry the customized sewing machine out of the workshop. These are also areas overlooked by you. Correct them in time. This shouldn’t happen again.”
Zhao Sheng hurriedly nodded. “Thank you for not punishing me, Consort.”
As for Zhang Jing and Jin Linglong, she had her own people to deal with them.
After they were dragged away , Bai Wutong announced to the expectant Lin Siyu, ‘The spindleless sewing machine you created has contributed a lot to the textile industry. Go to the Research and Development Department to register the patent later.” Then, she instructed You Huaijie, ‘Transfer the ident.i.ties of their entire family to commoners.”
Patent inventions could restore one’s ident.i.ty to a commoner.
In an instant, a small flame lit up in the hearts of the other servants.
Lin Siyu could not help but be excited. Their son could also enter the academy openly like the others.
was about to leave when Lin Siyu hurriedly wiped her tears and said to Bai Wutong, “Consort, I also developed a sewing machine with my husband. Please take a look! ”
Bai Wutong was stunned for a moment before her eyes revealed a trace of excitement. “Okay.”
Lin Siyu hurriedly left the workshop and called Jiang Cong, who was waiting outside, in.
Jiang Cong was carrying a big thing. It looked strange. Everyone sized up it curiously.
With just a glance, Bai Wutong could tell that the sewing machine made by the couple was similar to the operating principle of modern-day traditional sewing machines.
Lin Siyu introduced to Bai Wutong, “As long as you use our sewing machine, it’s easy to cut fabric or sew quickly.”
Everyone found it complicated to use such a big machine for sewing and cutting.
Under Bai Wutong’s instructions, Lin Siyu carried a stool and sat down in front of the sewing machine. She brought over a piece of canvas to demonstrate to everyone.
Lin Siyu stepped on the pedal and matched her movements. With a mechanical sound, the canvas was perfectly split into two.
In order to show the smoothness of the cutting, Lin Siyu used the sewing machine again. Under everyone’s surprised gazes, she cut out circular, complicated five-pointed stars, flounces, and other fabric shapes.
“Deng deng deng..
It was so fast that it made people click their tongues.
It was at least five times faster than using the scissors.
With just this function, she could apply for a patent. Under everyone’s gazes, Lin Siyu quickly sewed up the canvas with a sewing machine.
Lin Siyu handed the sewn canvas to Bai Wutong. “Please take a look, Consort.”
Bai Wutong picked it up and took a look. The exquisite st.i.tching and perfect finishing speed were the same as modern-day traditional sewing machines.
She immediately clapped and cheered. “The tailoring function developed by you and your wife has improved the production of clothes and greatly increased the efficiency of the workshop. The two of you will be recorded down in historical records. Go and register the patent!”
Lin Siyu had earned two patents in one go. Everyone was stunned and envious.
How much money would Lin Siyu’s family earn in the future!
Lin Siyu and Jiang Cong looked at each other. Their hard work these past few days had finally not been in vain.
They were grateful for Bai Wutong’s policy. The silver from their patents could already allow their family to not have to worry about food for the rest of their lives. Moreover, they could still rely on their effort to earn money in the future. After Lin Siyu and Jiang Cong exchanged glances, Lin Siyu suddenly knelt down in front of Bai Wutong and said, “Thank you, Princess Consort, for giving our family freedom and giving our son a chance to study again. We’re willing to offer the sewing machine and the spindleless textile machine to the Imperial
Court. ”
Not only would the two patented machines be used in their Southern Frontier, but they would also enter into the Central Plains market and earn an endless amount of silver. However, the couple actually gave up just like that. Everyone immediately revealed shocked and puzzled expressions.
If it were them, they would have hidden it. How could they be willing to announce the method for making money?
It had to be said that Lin Siyu and Jiang Cong’s determination was quite admirable.
Bai Wutong respected their decision. “Thank you for being willing to offer the sewing machine and the spindleless textile machine to the Imperial Court. The Imperial Court will also give you an honorary commendation. You will be prioritized for promotion in your job positions and you will enjoy free medical care.”
As the Consort, Bai Wutong actually thanked them. Moreover, they could even be promoted and receive free medical treatment. This was too good!
Lin Siyu and Jiang Yu hurriedly kowtowed in thanks.
The others’ eyes were about to tear up. The textile factory was choosing the factory head. Bai Wutong was clearly hinting that Lin Siyu was qualified to be chosen.
There was also free medical care. In the future, there would be no need to spend money on illnesses. Their lives had reach the peak in an instant.
They were really too envious. On the way home, their minds were filled with thoughts of what kind of invention they could create.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard they tried, their minds were still empty. They resigned themselves to work obediently.
Some people were born to earn big fortune!
The spindleless textile machine and sewing machine made a leap in production of ready-made clothes.
In the end, Lin Siyu was chosen as the deputy head of the textile factory. When the news was published in the newspaper founded by Cui Shiji, Madam Qu could not sit still anymore..
