Chapter 600: The Panic of the Old Ones
"If you want to recruit workers elsewhere, do you want to issue an edict and ask local officials to help with propaganda?"
"That's for the best!"
Li is in charge of the world, and it is very convenient to do things, so Zhao Yin is also happy to accept it.
"Okay, everyone has seen this tractor, let's go back!"
After arranging everything properly, Li Er prepared to go back.
"Your Majesty stays, and my son-in-law wants to invite you and the ministers to another place to watch!"
However, Li Er, who was just about to take a step, was stopped by Zhao Yin.
"Where?"
Li Er couldn't help but be a little curious.
"It's the steam loom that my son-in-law researched a few days ago!"
"Oh? Where? ”
As soon as he heard that there was a new invention, Li Er immediately became interested.
Because, every time this kid makes a new invention, Datang will take a big step forward, and it is estimated that this time will not be an exception!
"It's in the textile factory!"
"So what are you waiting for? Let's go, shall we? ”
Li Er was a little impatient, flicked his sleeves, and took the lead in getting on the horse.
It's not far from the textile mill, and it's only half an hour to get there!
After Li Er dismounted, he heard a familiar voice and couldn't help but stop, "What kind of sound is this?" It's so familiar! ”
"Your Majesty, if the old minister guessed correctly, it should be a steam engine!"
The eldest grandson Wuji bowed down to Li Er's side and whispered.
"That's right......!"
After his reminder, Li Er suddenly came to his senses, "It seems that your kid's textile factory has also installed a steam engine!" ”
"That's right, the steam engine is widely used and can be used in all fields, and with this steam engine, the textile efficiency has been greatly improved!"
Zhao Yin smiled and nodded.
"Then take me to see!"
Hearing that the textile efficiency has been improved, Li Er is a little impatient.
"The son-in-law will take His Majesty to the traditional workshop first, so that it is easy to make a comparison!"
Zhao Yin made a gesture of please and took the group to visit the ordinary workshop first.
Then I took everyone to visit the workshop where the steam engine was installed!
"It's a world of difference!"
There is no harm without contrast.
After seeing the efficiency of the steam engine, everyone's jaws dropped again!
"With this steam loom, wouldn't there be no way to live in a traditional textile workshop?"
A minister behind Li Er said weakly.
In this era, many nobles had weaving workshops in their homes, and they believed that it was a family business that could be passed down forever.
But after seeing the steam loom, they suddenly became depressed!
"That's right, if the master of the horse replaces all the textile factories with steam looms, I'm afraid that a large number of weaving workshops in the city will go out of business!"
Dai Xuan was also a little worried.
"Dai Shangshu is right!"
As soon as Dai Guan's words fell, those nobles who had workshops at home were suddenly so moved that they almost knelt on the ground and kowtowed two.
"If this colt tries to squeeze them, even if they don't have this steam loom, they won't survive!"
Zhao Yin was not angry because of Dai Guan's words, but smiled at the corner of his mouth.
"That's right, even if it's a traditional workshop for horses, the efficiency is amazing!"
Someone in the crowd spoke up to say a fair word.
"What do you mean by ......?"
Dai Xuan was a little confused.
"I just want to develop the textile industry, so that the people can live a higher quality of life, and this can also increase the sales of cotton, so that the people who grow cotton have a better income!"
Zhao Yin opened his mouth leisurely.
"What a good man!"
"Master Ma is really dedicated to the country and the people!"
"It's still the master of the horse who thinks comprehensively, I'm ashamed of myself!"
Those who had weaving workshops in their homes all boasted.
There's no way, the lives of their own workshops are in the hands of others, if they provoke this kid, they will have to close in minutes!
"Your Majesty has also seen the efficiency of this steam loom, what do you think?"
However, Zhao Yin ignored those people at all, and asked Li Er with a smile.
"It's not at all as efficient as hand-weaving!"
As soon as Li Er's words came out, those old people who had just put their minds at ease suddenly became nervous again.
This Weng and son-in-law can't be intentional, right?
"The son-in-law plans to install all the workshops with steam looms, and when the time comes, the price of cloth will be even lower, and the people will be able to buy cheaper clothes!"
Zhao Yin said righteously.
The people behind him who have workshops at home can't wait to come up and beat him!
"Well, yes, in this way, the burden on the people's lives will be smaller!"
Li Er was very satisfied with this proposal.
After speaking, the two continued to visit the workshop, and found the female workers in the workshop to introduce them!
And Zhao Yin glanced back from time to time, wanting to see the appearance of those old goods who were in a hurry!
After visiting for a while, Li Er deliberately pulled Zhao Yin to take two quick steps, and then lowered his voice and said, "Do you kid have any new ideas?" ”
"Your Majesty still knows the little son-in-law best......
Zhao Yin smiled and continued: "The steam loom must be promoted, but if they are forced to buy it, they will definitely not want to!" ”
"So you kid deliberately made them anxious?"
Li Er gloated and laughed.
"That's right, these people are just going backwards, once they see the efficiency of the steam engine, they don't need to explain more to the son-in-law, they all have to run to the son-in-law!"
Zhao Yin nodded.
"You're right, haha......!"
Li Er not only understands this kid, but also knows those old goods, they are indeed like Zhao Yin said.
"But now that the mass production of tractors is imminent, how can there be extra steam engines for them?"
Tractors are related to immigrants, and Li Er can't help but be a little worried.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, the production of tractors will never be delayed!"
Zhao Yin knew what he was worried about, and immediately spoke up to reassure.
"That's good!"
Li Er nodded with satisfaction.
As long as it does not affect the production of tractors, other things can be tossed up as he wants!
After two more turns, Li Er ordered to go back, and Zhao Yin naturally walked in front of Li Er, completely ignoring these old guys.
This can make them anxious, and in desperation, they just need to go to the eldest grandson Wuji and others to find a way.
"Zhao Guogong, we are relatives, you can't watch my workshop go bankrupt!"
One of the ministers, with his hands outstretched, said helplessly with a bitter face.
"Who said it wasn't, but I put all my net worth on it, and if the workshop closes, I will lose a lot!"
Another minister also leaned in and poured out bitter water.
"Doing business is inherently risky, don't you think the money will roll into your pocket on its own? I think the colt is right, the price of cloth should be lowered, so that the people can wear new clothes! ”
Cheng Yanjin couldn't stand it anymore, so he stood up and said a fair word.
"That's right, you old guy finally said something that satisfied me today!"
Wei Chigong gave a thumbs up in agreement.
"The two princes should give us some way to live!"
If everyone couldn't beat these two guys, they really wanted to go up and punch twice.
This is typical of them standing and talking without backache.
These old guys followed Zhao Yin to do business and made a lot of money, and now they are starting to mock them!
"This textile factory is not the old man's, and the old man can't help it!"
The eldest grandson is unscrupulous, so he is perfunctory.
"After all, the colt is also your son-in-law, and your words are always useful!"
Everyone saw that the horse was in front, but they could not go up to intercede, and they were really anxious.
"Even if the horse is the son-in-law of the old man, there are many shareholders in this textile factory, and it is not that the horse alone can make a decision!"
The eldest grandson Wuji obviously doesn't want to care.
