Chapter 159: Being Careless (Third Update)
"She's not your aunt's daughter, but your cousin. She married a gambler in the city and owed a large amount of gambling debts. Your cousin came back to borrow money again. Half of her husband's salary was paid to pay off the debt, and the other half was not enough to feed the family. , I have to bring carrots and cabbage with me when I come back. Auntie you came to our house. As you know, our family doesn’t have much money. Your cousin is also a poor person. Your aunt said that your cousin’s body was scratched all over by her husband who is a gambler, and the baby is also If you don't have enough to eat, just borrow some if you have more, and forget it if you don't have enough." Wang Hongmei sighed, after all, she is her own sister's daughter.
"He left me some money, but this is not the solution for my cousin. Didn't the matchmaker say it well? Why did he become a gambler?" Wang Hongmei also has a good relationship with her cousin.
Wang Hongmei's family's home is not far from her cousin's home, only a kilometer or two, within sight of the village next door.
"No, your aunt scolds the matchmaker at home every day. There's nothing you can do about it, but now she doesn't gamble, she just has to pay off the debt." Mrs. Wang Hongmei looked at Wang Hongmei and took out a handkerchief from her arms. There were not only dozens of dollars in it, but also A gold ring.
Wang Hongmei’s eyes widened and she asked, “Where did you get so much money?”
"He gave it to him. He just left yesterday. When he came back, he invited the captain. The village chief had dinner, and he brought several pairs with him. He said he had friends at the meat factory. There were also sugar, biscuits, and the clothes I gave him last time. He got it back." Wang Hongmei said a little proudly, after all, everyone was envious of her cousin marrying a city man.
When Wang Hongmei heard this, she was also happy for her daughter, and then asked: "This gold ring?"
"He also gave it to me. My parents-in-law don't even know." Wang Hongmei whispered, carefully putting away the remaining wallet.
Wang Hongmei's mood was very complicated: "I knew I should have married you to him back then, but I didn't expect that your father-in-law was jealous and found someone who was kind and righteous."
"Mom, it's all fate. I feel fine now."
"Well, what's wrong with your belly?"
"I don't know either. He said he's not in a hurry."
"Why don't you be in a hurry? If the one lying in your house leaves and you get pregnant again, your reputation will be bad."
"Mom, there is nothing we can do about this..."
Wang Hongmei sent her mother away, but she actually felt distressed. It was ten yuan. When did Wang Hongmei have money in her hands before, but when her mother opened her mouth, the matter must be more serious than what she said, otherwise her mother would not have spoken.
At the same time, I felt happy. Even compared to other people in the village, Liu Hai was a very good man. Wang Hongmei did not tell her parents that Liu Hai was a cadre.
Liu Hai reported to the factory director because he needed some materials, some of which the factory didn't have, such as tungsten. Of course Liu Hai didn't need much, so he could use any material. How could he not need raw materials to run a materials laboratory?
"Director, there is something I don't know whether to say or not." Liu Hai said after hesitating after reporting his affairs.
When Sun Aiguo heard this, he looked at Liu Hai and said, "Xiao Liu, what's the relationship between you and me? Is there anything you can't say?"
"Director, I was at Big Brother's side and I heard the term patent was invented by Western capitalists..." Liu Hai first said what a patent is.
When Sun Aiguo heard this, he said, "I know a little about this, but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with us?"
"Director, you misunderstood me. You said that our factory's motorcycles are world-leading. If a shameless capitalist steals our motorcycle technology, and then he gets a patent abroad, and then he collects the money on the side. , isn’t this poaching our feet? Two experts on Big Brother’s side said that some Western capitalists steal Big Brother’s technology, then apply for patents in the West and take other people’s money. Such people are simply disgusting.” The bangs are blowing at this time, and the upper management will not pay attention to it now.
But next year Big Brother will fall out and be short of money, then the upper management may think of this. After all, we still have people on Hong Kong Island, and Mr. Huo is at least one of our own.
Liu Hai himself doesn’t care about the patents. Anyway, everyone can use the ones that are now available. However, if Xiaobook or others steal the technology, apply for it, make money and use it against us, that would be disgusting.
When Sun Aiguo heard this, he also glared: "These capitalists in the West are so shameless. I will report it right away."
"Factory Director, you will report this when you report on other work, and make a special trip. The leaders will think you don't believe them. After all, our factory will definitely not leak technology." Liu Hai quickly stopped him.
Sun Aiguo nodded, and then said: "Well, pay attention to the 250 engine you are messing with this time. We have a lot of transportation captains here now. If these guys steal the technology and make money, Buying ships and cannons... No, I'll report it right away."
Liu Hai looked at Sun Aiguo's back and patted his head. He forgot about the shouting transportation captain. This guy wore the same pants as the West. It was because he occupied the first place in the Olympic Games last year. In the end, he didn't go. We know If it's too late, I won't catch up.
In modern times, everyone across the sea has basically ignored him, but now, the Transport Captain is still very popular, at least most of the West recognizes him...
"Maybe the result is better than expected." Liu Hai really didn't do it on purpose, he just ignored the existence of the transportation captain.
Liu Hai continued to return to the maintenance department. He has been drawing these past few days. He spent half the day drawing and half the day reading homework. He lived a beautiful life as a child. He ate most of the time in the cafeteria and occasionally cooked by himself.
Sun Aiguo hurriedly came to the old leader of the First Machinery Department in Kyoto, opened the door and went in, which shocked the old leader.
"Old Sun, why are you whining like this? What's wrong?" The leader looked at Sun Aiguo and asked.
Sun Aiguo closed the door and said: "Leader, this is what happened. Comrade Liu Hai was over there with Big Brother and heard..."
"Leader, don't be afraid of anything else. Just the captain of the transportation brigade. I don't know how many people are lurking there. In the past, our technology was backward. Aren't motorcycles at the world's advanced level? What do you want to apply for if the captain of the transport brigade steals the technology? Patent, earn money to buy ships and cannons..."
The leader began to listen to Sun Aiguo talking about patents, thinking that Sun Aiguo had some ideas. After listening, his face was very solemn. It would be better if someone else stole the technology, but what if the captain of the transportation team stole it and made money...disgusting ,nausea!
"I'll take a look at it. You can go back first." The leader first took a look at the patent and then reported it immediately.
The leader quickly asked people to ask. Many of them had returned from studying abroad. After listening carefully, they found out that the Paris Convention existed in 1884. When they heard that the patent had been patented for 20 years, they asked with some surprise: "In other words, a patent As long as the technology application is successful, you can receive money for twenty years?"
"Yes, leader, as long as the application is successful, as long as others use this technology, they will be paid, as long as it is within these twenty years." The expert nodded.
The leader was a little dumbfounded: "Well, what should I do if other people want to use the applied technology and do it themselves without being paid?"
