Chapter 277 Patent Application

That day, Su Ming took the macaques and gibbons to the back mountain. The macaques can make wine, and the gibbons' "winemaking" behavior was completely stimulated by the macaques, and they imitated the macaques in anger.

Although a pile of rotten fruits can be fermented into wine, it does not mean that this is monkey wine. If that were the case, there would be no need for monkeys to brew it, and Su Ming could brew it himself. So he didn't expect the gibbons to really make wine. Anyway, those schoolbags of fruits were not worth much, so he just made the gibbons happy, and it didn't matter if they were wasted.

Unexpectedly, the gibbons really made wine!

Su Ming brought a gibbon to the winemaking place in the back mountain, and saw that the fruits in the two hollow old trees had completely rotted, and the rich fermented liquid penetrated through the gaps on the partitions and was dripping into the large wooden barrel below.

The tree on the east side is the tree where the macaques make wine. The barrel below is already half full. Su Ming dipped his finger in it and tasted it. It was still the same recipe and tasted the same as the monkey wine he drank before.

The tree on the west side is used by gibbons to make wine. Su Ming didn't expect it at the beginning. Now, there is a thin layer of liquid in the barrel below. But it is not the emerald green color of monkey wine, but a liquid that is close to milky white, like cheese.

He also dipped his finger in it and tasted it. It was very fragrant, but the alcohol content was quite high, close to white wine, and it also had the effect of improving mental strength. Perhaps because the alcohol content is higher than that of macaque wine, the degree of improvement in mental strength is also greater.

No wonder these gibbons rebelled! The macaques live in a semi-open monkey mountain and can "enter and exit freely", while the gibbons are locked in cages. Without Su Ming's help, they can't get out at all. Last time, the two sides brewed wine together. Now the macaques stole the liquor brewed by the gibbons. It would be strange if they were not angry!

There was only a thin layer of gibbon wine left in the wine barrel. It seemed that most of it was stolen by the macaques.

"These bad boys!" Su Ming rubbed the head of the gibbon who followed him to comfort him.

In any case, it is not a bad thing to have one more monkey who can brew wine. The gibbon wine has a high alcohol content and is more effective in improving mental strength. Su Ming felt that he needed to improve his drinking capacity. If he could drink white wine like drinking macaque wine every day, the speed of improving mental strength would obviously increase significantly.

...

"Yes, Uncle Zhao, this is the formula for monkey wine."

At Zhao Yun's house, Su Ming took out two pieces of paper full of words and handed them to Zhao Yun. When the two groups of monkeys brewed wine, he used a camera to record the whole process, and then went back to summarize it into text as the initial product formula of Dasheng Wine Industry in the future.

Of course, this is just a basic formula. Whether it is monkey wine or gibbon wine, the real original flavor is all brewed by animals themselves, and Su Ming mainly uses it for himself. Even if there are more gibbons and monkeys, it is impossible to support the brewing work of the entire winery. In the future, the winery's wine will mainly rely on manual and mechanical brewing, so even if it is the same formula, the wine produced is completely different.

Based on the two types of monkey wine as the basic formula, it is necessary to add Tai Sui water as an additive to conduct a series of professional experiments to determine how to mix Tai Sui water and the current monkey wine formula to achieve the best effect.

Zhao Yun took it and looked at it carefully, and asked curiously: "Huh? One is a fruit wine, and the other is a white wine formula?"

"Well, in this way, we can have two products, white wine and fruit wine. In fact, both are fruit wines, but one has a high degree and the other has a low degree." Su Ming nodded. The gibbon can brew strong liquor, which not only brings him a new way to improve his mental strength, but also opens up a new flagship product for the winery, which can produce strong and low-alcohol liquor together in the future.

"These two formulas will be very interesting. I have never seen wine brewed in this way. Where did you get them from?" Zhao Yun specializes in antiques and has a basic understanding of other trades. He is a generalist and of course knows more or less about wine. After reading these two formulas, he was surprised.

At this time, Su Ming was not going to hide the monkey wine from Zhao Yun. Although the monkey gibbon could not be responsible for the work of the entire winery in the future, it was necessary to frequently "pretend" to brew wine and create some gimmicks. After a long time, a large group of macaques and gibbons pretended to brew wine in the winery, and they pretended to be so professional that they looked more professional than the serious workers. The discerning people in the winery could see some clues. The real source of the monkey wine could not be hidden from Zhao Yun. As long as he thought about it a little, he could figure it out.

Zhao Yun asked him about the source of the formula. If Su Ming didn't want to, he didn't have to tell him. But now the relationship between Su Ming and Zhao Yun is different from before. They are good friends in private and will open a winery together in the future. Su Ming is ready to be frank about some harmless little issues.

He considered the words, smiled mysteriously, and said: "Uncle Zhao, to be honest, these two formulas were not obtained from human hands." In his words, he emphasized the pronunciation of the word "human".

"Not from human hands?" Zhao Yun was stunned and looked at Su Ming in confusion. What do you mean it's not from "human" hands? If it's not human, is it a ghost? Or is it a family heirloom?

Su Ming smiled and said nothing.

Zhao Yun's brain is so good. He was distracted at the beginning. It can be seen that Su Ming's smile is very mysterious. His mind was brightened, and his heart seemed to be electrified, and he connected all the previous details together.

In Monkey Mountain, he used the family heirloom animal training skills to save Chengcheng;

It didn’t take long before Monkey Wine was discovered;

When discussing opening a winery, Su Ming also said that he could send a few monkeys to pretend to make wine to create a publicity stunt;

Now, he was holding two strange fruit wine recipes with a mysterious look, saying that he didn't get them from 'people'...

Putting these things together, Zhao Yun had already guessed about 70% of the time, and asked Su Ming incredulously: "You mean, these two recipes are the recipes for monkey wine? Those monkey wines back then..."

"That's pretty much it." Su Ming roughly told Zhao Yun what happened.

Of course, he didn't say anything about the abilities of Friends of Animals. He just said that after rescuing Chengcheng, he discovered that the Monkey King had escaped from prison. He followed him and discovered that the old Monkey King knew how to make wine, so he had the Monkey Wine at the auction. Later, he came up with the idea that since macaques can make wine, then gibbons might also be able to make wine. After giving it a try, it turned out to be the case, so he came up with these two recipes.

"Oh, that's it!" Zhao Yun listened to Su Ming's story attentively. After listening, he breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Hehe, this monkey wine was too shocking at first, and I was too poor, so I kept it from you, so don't be surprised." Su Ming said with a smile.

"There's nothing surprising about this." Zhao Yun didn't mean to blame him at all, but said with a smile: "Besides, our relationship at that time was not like it is now. If it were me, I would have kept this secret. But in this case, since you have a batch of monkey wine every year, get me a few bottles."

"Okay, I can give you one bottle a month, no problem. But why do you want so much wine?"

Monkey wine is of great significance to Su Ming, but to others, it is just an extremely rare and high-quality wine. Zhao Yun is a collector, and things are rare and valuable. One or two bottles are valuable, but if he sends one bottle every month, this thing will immediately become worthless.

Zhao Yun opened his eyes wide and said confidently: "Who said I want to collect it and drink it? I took a sip last year and the taste was so deadly. I was itching all the time. It's a pity that I only thought this thing was too refined. It’s expensive, one sip is too little, and you can’t even buy it if you have the money, so I couldn’t bear to drink it and kept it in the safe. Now that you have a stable source, of course I’ll ask you to order some to satisfy your craving! "

"Uncle, one bottle costs millions. It's not appropriate for you to just use it to satisfy your cravings!" Su Ming said half-jokingly.

"You don't use it as water every day, and I don't see you feeling distressed."

Zhao Yun rolled his eyes, and then said seriously: "I will go to the agency to test whether these two formulas comply with food safety regulations. There is another very important thing. Since these two formulas are ownerless, then you We must apply for a patent quickly to prevent someone from copying our wine in the future, or even copying it. If the copycat applies for a patent first, we will not have time to cry. "

This is worth noting. Regardless of who developed these two formulas, the Patent Office and whoever applies for the patent first will legally belong to him. There are too many bloody lessons. The real inventor was negligent and did not apply for a patent. As a result, a copycat applied for it first. It was so sad that he was in tears. Not only did he not get the benefits he deserved, but he could no longer even use the formula. .

Su Ming immediately called lawyer Zhang Siming and asked him to apply for a patent. In addition to the patents for these two basic formulas, in the future when the winery develops a formal product with Tai Sui water added, it will also apply for two more product patents jointly owned by Su Ming and the winery.

Applying for a patent is not difficult. Just use a clear process and follow it. It can be done for a few small bucks. Zhang Siming agreed without hesitation, and then said jokingly on the other end of the phone: "Mr. Su, you are not I just took over the zoo and became the deputy director. When did I start developing new wine? It’s true that the capable can do anything.”

"Hehe, it's a long story. When the wine is developed, I'll treat you to a drink." Su Ming said with a smile.

"Okay."

After talking to Zhang Siming, Su Ming chatted with Zhao Yun about the current construction progress of the winery. Since the price of the land was cheap, the winery had relatively sufficient start-up capital. A lot of money was spent to pave the way, and the project was progressing smoothly. , in a few months, the winery will almost be completed and started.
