Tian Wenjing came to Xiangxuehai early the next morning, and Kangxi didn't know what Lu Dao's considerations were, so he met him for the first time. didn't say anything, just casually encouraged him, and then handed him over to Chen Ce for placement. But this is enough to make Tian Wenjing feel very excited. Next, he threw himself into this new job with pride and pride that seemed to have no future.

According to the original plan, Kangxi was supposed to return to the palace after meeting Tian Wenjing, but because of the textile machine, he stayed without accident.

The craftsmen of the artisan institute lived up to expectations and produced a sample of the Jenny machine in just two days. It was a full seven days ahead of Shuyun's previous scheduled time.

Kangxi attached great importance to this matter and sent Li Dequan to keep an eye on the craftsman at all times. Therefore, after the results came out, he received the news as soon as possible.

Immediately took Shuyunxing and hurried to the craftsman's office, needless to say. The performance of the sample is undoubtedly powerful for now, not only can spin eight threads at the same time, but also the speed is extremely fast, and very labor-saving, one can be operated completely freely.

Kangxi smiled and gave the textile machine a name, and it was called Nishang, so Jenny Machine changed its name. Kangxi also immediately ordered the craftsmen of Xiangxuehai to cooperate with the Ministry of Industry to step up the production of neon looms in large quantities. And set a minimum of 100 units per day.

Of course, with the existing scientific and technological level of the Qing Dynasty and the ability of the craftsmen, according to the principles and drawings of the Jenny machine provided by Shuyun, it is not a problem to continue to manufacture a machine with better performance and more weaving threads in the future. Don't dare to say anything else. It is still possible to double the number of threads spun. Moreover, Xiang Xuehai and the craftsman in charge of the Ministry of Industry both raised this point to Kangxi at the same time.

But Kangxi listened to Shuyun's opinion and shelved this tempting proposal.

Actually, don't talk about sixteen threads. Even thirty-two threads are not a problem at all for Shuyun. If you want to get a step closer, you can also use water power as power. But increasing productivity levels too much all at once is not necessarily a good thing. At present, the textile industry in the Qing Dynasty is composed of handmade workshops with families as the unit. Thousands of families use it to supplement their families or even make a living from it.

If the performance of the loom is improved too much at once, then there is no doubt that a large number of businessmen will definitely set up factories, and China has never lacked discerning businessmen from ancient times to the present. When the market is not regulated, the livelihoods of countless families will be affected as a result. Of course, there are good sides. At the very least, the germ of capitalism is likely to be established. But in the process, the interests of many ordinary people will inevitably be harmed.

A country, although the magnates, landlords and wealthy class occupy most of the means of production, they live a prosperous life and dominate the development of the country. But in terms of the composition of the country, it is the ordinary people who dominate, and they are really the cornerstone of a country. Then if you want a country to be stable, you can't ignore their interests.

This is not to say that development is to be restricted, nor is it to be achieved at the expense of the interests of the majority of the people. It's about taking it one step at a time. There is a step-by-step process in everything, and the interests of the people are no small matter, and the steps must be steady. As the ruler of a country, control the pace of development. Balancing the interests of all strata and providing appropriate guidance are all things that must be done.

At the same time, Shuyun also made a suggestion to Kangxi. That is, when the people encounter difficulties, the yamen should. There is also an obligation to help them, and of course this includes the hard work of the people for a year. But it is backlogged in the hands and cannot be sold at a good price. In this regard, Kangxi also deeply agreed.

The emergence of the neon loom has also brought a win-win effect. The cotton farmers had a way out, the people could buy cheaper cloth, the merchants had more goods to sell, and the imperial court gained a lot in terms of taxes and prestige. Of course, in the future, it will gradually lead the rapid development of society.

Kangxi saw the result that satisfied him, and the task was also arranged, so it was not good to continue to stay in Xiangxuehai. After all, Shuyun's situation is still a little delicate now, and the concubines in the palace must also be appeased for a while.

Now the most popular people in the palace are Concubine Yi and the Wang family, who have just been named concubines. Kangxi is understandable for pampering Concubine Yi, she is one of the four concubines, and her personality and family situation are also good. But raising the concubine, the meaning of this is a bit intriguing. Although the Wang family is beautiful, don't forget that she was left aside by Kangxi and ignored for three years. Now that the Wang family has made a big turnaround, and suddenly her status has changed, if nothing else, it will definitely attract the attention of all parties, which is equivalent to roasting her on the fire. This is not a sign of a man's love for a woman.

And Shuyun, who seems to have been damaged on the surface, but is actually the beneficiary, completely handed over all the disturbances to Kangxi. I'm just watching from the sidelines.

The two small meat buns have become more and more naughty since the full moon, as long as they don't sleep, they lie in the crib all day long and stretch their arms and legs, without stopping for a moment. These two little things have a very big temper, and they will cry when they are not satisfied, and the cry is loud. Compared with the two of them, the dragon eggs can be regarded as good babies.

There is also a bad habit of dumpling and glutinous rice balls, that is, they are particularly sticky to Shuyun, and they always want Shuyun to hold them, and they don't buy anyone's accounts except Shuyun. After the full moon, their weight has grown to almost fifteen pounds, such two fat children, no matter how good Shuyun's physical strength is, this day is enough for Shuyun to drink a pot. But ignore them, these two little things will have a flat mouth, and there is a bubble of tears in the big round eyes like black grapes, and they look like they want to cry or not. As soon as you grit your teeth, you can hug it, it's your own child anyway, but it's just hard, nothing. The two little buns succeeded, and they were happy!

Naturally, Shuyun was also dizzy from the tossing of these two little monsters, and she almost vomited blood without getting tired. Shuyun found that taking the two of them was more tired than bringing the dragon eggs, and the seven of them were tired. However, there is also an advantage, that is, Shuyun's fat has also lost quickly.

The two little buns are energetic, unlike other children who eat and sleep all day long. They eat more often and sleep a lot less than babies of the same age. Therefore, the time to let Shuyun rest is relatively small. However, this limited time was also used by Shuyun, who took the selected high-quality cotton seeds to the space for planting. It is hoped that they will be improved to increase the yield of cotton now.

Busy days always go by quickly. Before I knew it, another month had passed.

A large number of Nishang looms have been sold to the outside world, and the price was set by Kangxi according to the people's affordability and listened to the opinions of many parties, which is quite reasonable, and even in Shuyun's opinion, it is still low. However, there are still some particularly poor families who cannot afford it. For this reason, Kangxi formulated another policy to benefit the people, that is, the people can take credit from the yamen, of course, the number can only be one. And it must be repaid within a year. However, with the function and price of the neon loom, there is no problem in repaying it in one year.

This method was originally proposed by Dragon Egg. That day, Kangxi called the princes to the study to inspect their schoolwork, and it happened that the people from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household jointly went to Kangxi to report on the promotion of the neon loom. Kangxi also had the heart to inspect the brothers, so he let them express their opinions. The dragon egg casually added such an article. Kangxi thought it was feasible, and immediately made a decision.

The people are the most simple and kind, and whoever is good to them, they will be good to them wholeheartedly. Kangxi solved such a big problem for cotton farmers. In return, they put on the Wanmin Table and Wanmin Umbrella to the Yamen, and asked the Yamen to forward it to Kangxi.

Just when this Wanmin watch and Wanmin umbrella full of gratitude were sent to the capital quickly.

Qin Cha, who was sent to Suzhou to supervise the case of drunk driving and crushing civilians, and the imperial historian Dong Wenji also returned. In the past month, he investigated and dealt with more than 50 officials from the prefect to the county government, who had colluded with wealthy businessmen to smuggle opium, silk, sea salt, and so on, and even had a disregard for human life.

Kangxi was immediately furious, beheaded some, and distributed some, that is, an accomplice with a very minor crime, was also punished by Kangxi with hard labor, and everyone confiscated their family property.

At this time, opium was not called opium, but was called hibiscus, and more people called it Fushou ointment. This means that smoking opium can prolong life. Of course, this is not true, but it is just a gorgeous cloak that Western countries have put on it against their conscience in order to sell opium to China. Of course, this strategy was so successful that Chinese who did not know the truth generally believed that opium had the effect of adding blessings and longevity

Others don't know the harm of opium, how can Shuyun, who has the soul of a modern person, not know about it. The "Opium War" is a shame that China will never erase. How many Chinese have been harmed by a small opium, how many families have been destroyed because of it, and wives have been separated. It was a heart-wrenching past that all Chinese did not want to talk about.

When Shuyun heard the three words A Furong from Kangxi's mouth, she didn't feel anything at first, but she just felt that this word was so familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere. After a while, Shuyun suddenly reflected, isn't this talking about opium. Shuyun immediately became nervous. Hurriedly interrupted Kangxi. asked nervously, "Your Majesty, did you just say Ah Furong?" ”

Kangxi looked at Shuyun suspiciously: "Yes, what's wrong?" ”

"Damn it!" Shuyun scolded viciously.

"What's wrong, is there something wrong with this Fleur?" Kangxi had never seen Shuyun lose his temper like this, and he couldn't help but get nervous.

Shuyun calmed down for a while, then frowned, gritted her teeth and said, "Not only is there a problem, but it's a big problem." ”
