Chapter 263: Visiting the Two Wolf Mountain
After Tang Yin withdrew, Xie Zhi and Zhu Houzhao also withdrew.
Xie Zhi was still waiting for Tang Yin to withdraw, and Emperor Hongzhi might leave him behind to say something.
After waiting for a moment and not seeing Emperor Hongzhi speak, Xie Zhi also retreated boldly with confidence.
This matter can be regarded as a big thing to break the inherent knowledge, and it cannot be expected that Emperor Hongzhi can accept it easily, so he must be given a time to think about it.
After Xie Zhi left Emperor Hongzhi's room, he and Zhu Houzhao found Wang Shouren.
Tomorrow, Emperor Hongzhi will definitely visit those workshops in the clouds, and this matter must be arranged.
Seeing Wang Shouren, Xie Zhi asked with a smile: "The development of the clouds has been quite stable during this period of time, right?" ”
Wang Shouren smiled slightly, said: "Steady is very, the cement workshop is too large, and the transportation is extremely time-consuming, so it is not very appropriate, in the next or first of all, the cement workshop should be expanded, reduce the loss of transportation, but also save a lot of silver, you have a lot of ideas on these issues, I want to discuss with you, and then I started to get it, and now Guizhou should now build this cement workshop." ”
If cement had been transported from the clouds to Guizhou, it was estimated that it would not be possible to build all the damaged houses in Guizhou in a year.
Xie Zhi smiled and replied: "This is very necessary, transporting cement from the clouds is just to increase the sensational effect, during this time, there are more people who come to buy cement, right?" ”
Wang Shouren nodded and replied: "It's a lot." ”
Xie Zhi then said: "The advertising effect is enough, and it is time to expand, the cement workshop will be expanded first, and other workshops can also be expanded in other states and counties, after all, Yunzhong is only so big, and it can't absorb so many workshops at once, and the wealth of a county in Yunzhong is not what we want to see, this matter should not be interfered with by the imperial court, and the market must be digested and absorbed by itself, so this matter needs to be discussed by Brother Shouren and the chief officials of other states and counties." ”
This thing is definitely a great thing, which state and county can have a workshop, then there will be no problem with wealth, the people have silver, so isn't it easy to collect a tax?
As early as before, the governors of other states and counties began to look for Yunzhong, but the time was not ripe at that time, and Xie Zhi never let go.
At that time, the resources were so little, if they were distributed to other states and counties, would there still be such a thing in the cloud?
In this situation, there is no longer so much stuff in the cloud.
The displaced people rushed to the clouds in batches, and just to solve the food, clothing, housing and transportation of these displaced people, it was no longer possible to do it in the clouds.
If this problem cannot be solved, then there will be no guarantee of security in the clouds.
If security cannot be guaranteed, a series of complications will appear.
Wang Shouren responded: "Negotiations have already begun. ”
Since Wang Shouren went to handle this matter, Xie Zhi was not uneasy, nodded and replied: "Well, then let's negotiate, but I am not afraid of giving some state and county chiefs political achievements." ”
As for tomorrow's visit, Wang Shouren is in charge, and Xie Zhi is not worried, so he went to sleep after finalizing it.
Early the next morning, Xie Zhi got up early, and when he got up, Emperor Hongzhi and the courtiers had just gotten up.
Now that he has arrived at the county office, Wang Shouren is responsible for preparing breakfast.
After Xie Zhi washed up, breakfast was already on the table.
Eggs, buns, millet porridge... It's simple, but it's enough to fill your stomach.
At the dinner table, Emperor Hongzhi didn't mention yesterday's things anymore, and the courtiers at the dinner table didn't ask much, and after eating breakfast quietly, they didn't use Wang Shouren to take it, Xie Zhi directly led them to the Two Wolves Mountain.
The current Two Wolf Mountain is more prosperous than the previous visit of Emperor Hongzhi, and there are many wine shops, teahouses and inns, which are prepared for the convenience of those merchants who come and go to the Two Wolf Mountain.
Arranged here, it is not only convenient for those merchants, but also a lot of benefits.
Xie Zhi took Emperor Hongzhi and others back and forth in the center of the shops in the Two Wolves Mountain, although he didn't go to the Two Wolves Mountain much, but even if he only went once, it was enough to make the shops in the Two Wolves Mountain remember.
After all, the shops opened in the Two Wolf Mountains were run by the county at the beginning, and most of their backgrounds are homeless, or they are landless people in the clouds, and they don't need to take a penny, so they have these shops, and they only need to pay back with a part of the profits every month.
These people greeted Xie Zhi with a smile when they saw him, although they all knew that he was no longer the magistrate in the clouds, but they were all used to calling him the magistrate.
Whenever this happens, Xie Zhi responds one by one.
Xie Zhi represents the imperial court, and Xie Zhi can be like the people in the clouds, which is also giving the imperial court a long face.
Emperor Hongzhi, who was following Xie Zhi, was still very happy.
Xie Zhi led Emperor Hongzhi to respond to those people, and then introduced to Emperor Hongzhi, and said: "Your Majesty, in order to meet the needs of merchants, the ceramics, cooking oil, and cement workshops in Liangwolf Mountain are expanding every day, but after all, the boundaries in the clouds are also limited, and it is impossible to accommodate the needs of the merchants who come in a steady stream, and it is impossible to accommodate so many displaced people, and it is time to divert them for other states and counties, and a large amount of refined coal is also found in the clouds. This could be a solution for other states and counties. ”
At the beginning of the opening of the ceramic workshop, Xie Zhi began to send people to start prospecting.
Not long after the construction of the ceramic workshop, this mine was really found by Xie Zhi, as a traverser, he was completely standing on the shoulders of giants, where there was a mine he knew, and there was no need to look for it again and again.
Emperor Hongzhi didn't speak, but he was still satisfied in his heart, Yunzhong is rich, but how can a county drive the wealth of a country, this is.
Emperor Hongzhi didn't speak, and Xie Zhi took a group of people to the cement workshop.
All the way they went, all the food under their feet was the cement road, and when they saw the output of cement, they were no longer so surprised.
As for the ingredients in the cement and how it is produced, Xie Zhi will not introduce it in front of these people, even if they want to ask, Xie Zhi may not tell them.
Emperor Hongzhi asked, "Can this cement be used like this?" ”
This question that has nothing to do with leakage, Xie Zhi can also be answered, Xie Zhi replied: "Yes, if you pull it out like this, you can use it, Your Majesty, during this period of time, the cement propaganda has also reached a certain effect, and this kind of cement workshop should also be built in other places, so that the cost can be resolutely transported." ”
Although the manpower and force consumed by this transportation are borne by the people who buy the cement, it will not be a problem in the long run.
The cost of transportation is higher than the value of the goods themselves, which is a big problem.
At this time, there was no economics, and Emperor Hongzhi didn't thank him so many ideas, he felt that since there were many people in need, it was not a bad thing to build more, and nodded and said: "If it is needed, then it will be built." ”
This cement workshop is not privately owned from beginning to end, but is the private property of Yunzhong, that is, all profits belong to the county government of Yunzhong.
Since it is returned to Yunzhong County, it is returned to the imperial court.
After taking a look at the various workshops, Xie Zhi directly led a group of people to the Two Wolf Mountain Academy.
Although these scholars of the Two Wolf Mountain Academy are preparing for the next examination, after all, they are on the Two Wolf Mountain, and they will go to the workshop to have a look when they are not in class on weekdays, and their thinking is quite advanced, and they also have some ideas about some arithmetic and economics.
On the Two Wolves Mountain, Emperor Hongzhi directly exposed his identity.
After the ceremony, Emperor Hongzhi asked, "Can you be sure that you will try to wait next time?" ”
The following person replied: "I have my own grasp, but I have benefited a lot from the Two Wolf Mountain Academy, and I think that being an official is just a kind of livelihood, and it is not much different from other farmers and businessmen, and there is no distinction between high and low, and if you fail the exam, there are thousands of ways to choose to support yourself." ”
In fact, such an idea is definitely to be fought at this time.
All the ministers were unhappy on their faces, but Emperor Hongzhi smiled slightly and said, "What are you capable of?" ”
The scholar replied: "When I am free to go down, I also go to those workshops on the mountain for a long time, and after seeing a lot, I can understand that I can say anything in the lower part." ”
