This year, the winter in the capital was colder than usual.

There was a heavy snowfall the other day, and the ground in the city is frozen almost everywhere at the moment; As a result, even though it's daytime, there are a lot fewer people willing to go out.

People who don't need to go out can have cats at home, while others can't.

"This hell weather, it's really evil." The vendor Pu Lu broke off a piece of ice from the side of the adjacent eaves, and said while biting: "In previous years, it was very rare for the capital to even have snow, and I don't know what happened in the past few years. ”

The porter standing next to him laughed and did not answer.

After moving his mouth for a moment, Pu Lu, who had quenched his thirst, casually threw the ice cream aside, and said, "Gao Yuan, I heard that you have a girl who hasn't left the cabinet yet?" ”

Gao Yuan's face changed, but he still nodded honestly: "Yes, master." ”

Pu Lu frowned and said, "I'm not a nosy person, but every time I come to the capital, I look for you to work, and I'm familiar with you, so I have a lot of words...... I heard that your sister can't stay at home at all, and she runs out all day long and doesn't know what to do, but is there such a thing? ”

Gao Yuan was obviously relieved, and responded: "Master, there is such a thing." ”

Pu Lu raised his head when he heard this, and his tone also raised a few points: "What kind of body does a daughter's family have become to be wild outside all day long?" If you have time, it is better to read "The Female Commandment" or "The Analects of the Woman", even if you are illiterate, you can learn some female red crafts, and if you marry in the future, you will be a husband and a child. Like now, I'm afraid it's hard to find an in-law, right? Gao Yuan, you are the head of the family, and you still have to take care of it. ”

Gao Yuan hung his head and said: "The master has taught me a lesson, but the villain's sister is born to jump out, and she doesn't even listen to her sister-in-law's words, so I can't persuade her." Let's talk ...... again."

He looked around and said in a low voice: "Every time she goes out for a day, she can get some money to go home, although it is only a few dozen yuan, but my family is not rich, this money can be used to supplement the family, and the villain is too lazy to care about her." ”

Pu Lu was startled at first, and then showed disdain: "Your sister, shouldn't you ......?"

Gao Yuan knew that people wanted to be crooked, so he waved his hands and said: "We don't dare to let my sister do that half-hidden business, if she dares, I will be the first to kill her." I heard that someone opened a workshop to recruit female workers to weave cloth. There are only women in that kind of place, and it shouldn't be in the way. ”

Pu Lu hesitated for a moment and asked, "Workshop? Only women? ”

Gao Yuan nodded and said, "Yes." My mother-in-law saw that her sister was a little hot when she took money back every day, and said two days ago that she wanted to go together, but the people were already full of people, and she didn't enter for the time being. But I've heard that there will be another batch of looms over there in a few days, so I'll let her try it then. ”

Pu Lu's eyes rolled and said, "Isn't it just a few dozen dollars?" I heard that some kidnappers also have to give some sweetness before hooking up with someone, don't be fooled by your sister. Besides, the reputation of the girl's family is still important, and it's not good to always show up. ”

"The lord doesn't care about these dozens of dollars, and the villain can't care less - as long as you save slowly, you can still eat two good meals and add a few new clothes during the New Year." Gao Yuan sneered: "I work outside, and I earn more than this in a hard day, but my sister can't carry it on her shoulders and can't pick it with her hands, but she earns so much...... I heard that there is still a meal over there.

Hey, if my mother-in-law goes in a few days, it will be lively. At that time, the two of them together will earn more money than me, and it is difficult to say whether I can talk in this house or not, and I will not be able to raise my head if I don't get it right. ”

Pu Lu raised his leg and kicked him in the ass, and scolded with a smile: "You are also very shrewd, and you still want me to pay more...... That's fine, as long as you help me get my things to the place, I might actually give some reward when I'm in a good mood. ”

Soon, the two chatted and left.

As soon as their figures disappeared, a person flashed out from behind the corner, and another person also appeared in desperation.

"I ...... My son, the white dragon fish, came out in a round, but I didn't expect to hear such a conversation, which was really interesting. Shao Ning unfolded the folding fan in his hand and fanned it twice, and said: "If ordinary people can earn money in the workshop and come back to support their families, they will have one more way to make a living, and they will be able to live and work in peace and contentment." Isn't this the credit of the Holy Son of Heaven? ”

Xiao Jing resisted the urge to vomit and rolled his eyes at the sky.

This bag is sick again, and everyone else feels cold in thick coats, but he is fine, and he also brings a fan in order to pretend, but he is afraid that the few pedestrians on the street will not notice him.

If the two of them just knew that the emperor was eavesdropping on the side, I don't know if they would have slandered a few words?

Although he thought so in his heart, he still said patiently: "By the way, isn't this workshop built by your old man?" ”

There have been many emperors who like to play tickets throughout the ages, but I am afraid that there are few who do business in person.

Shao Ning didn't think it was angry at all, and said with a smile: "The Shao family has been in business for generations, even if I am not the son of the Shao family now, I have learned a lot of business methods from my father, and I always feel itchy if I don't try it myself." ”

He slapped his palms with a fan, and his expression suddenly became a little sad: "Dad's body has been worse than a year since I ascended the throne. Last year he had a child from a distant brother, but I don't think that kid is a fuel-efficient lamp. In case he loses his family in the future, this workshop should be kept for him, and it can be regarded as a little incense. ”

Seeing that Xiao Jing was also very gloomy, his tone changed again: "In a few days, I plan to add fifty new textile machines to the workshop, what do you think?" ”

"Very good. With the current momentum, there will be a steady stream of applicants. Xiao Jing thought for a while and said, "It's just, even if the workshop weaves more cloth, who will it sell it to?" ”

Even with the onslaught of new, low-cost fabrics, it took a long time for the natural economy of men to weave and weave for men and women to disintegrate, and until then the products of the workshops could only find a small market in the cities, and blindly expanding production was tantamount to making money at a loss.

The wheel of history has a huge inertia, and it will not easily turn in another direction as described in many crossings that Xiao Jing has seen in his previous life, as long as it takes three or five years.

Shao Ning laughed, and then said with great ambition: "I heard that there were such workshops on the southeast coast a few years ago, so where did the cloth they produce be sold?" Hehe, when everyone else is stupid? Last year, my fleet made a lot of money, which made many people's jaws drop, and they don't want to eat alone in the future! ”

He raised his fan and pointed to the sky, and said in a deliberately lowered voice:

"If Haimao can't find a way—then my generals will find a way for me too!"
