Zhu Youzhen sat at the desk in a daze, waiting for the system to be upgraded.

Wang Chengen personally guarded the door, and this room where the ship model was placed was a forbidden place in the palace.

No one else but His Royal Highness King Xin was allowed to enter this room.

Even the cleaning of the room was done by Wang Chengen himself.

Whenever he saw the various ship models in the room, Wang Chengen was extremely excited and satisfied.

Wang Chengen swore that His Royal Highness had never learned anything about ships.

King Xin, even the word and enlightenment, learned from them. There is absolutely no knowledge of ships in the books that King Shin reads.

This is the knowledge of His Royal Highness the Heavenly Trust.

Others don't know, but Wang Chengen knows it clearly.

His Royal Highness King Xin can really communicate with God.

Although His Royal Highness King Xin is tight-lipped, Wang Chengen, who can be a personal attendant, can draw conclusions from the various subtleties of His Royal Highness King Xin.

When His Highness called God, he was really communicating with God.

What a pity!

It's a pity that His Highness is just a vassal king.

Wang Chengen deeply felt sorry for His Royal Highness.

Can't say it, you really can't say it.

Seeing too much of the cruelty of the court, Wang Chengen will only bury all this he knows deep in his heart, and dare not leak a little.

Zhu Youzhen in the house didn't know Wang Chengen's careful thoughts. He silently took stock of the power he had in his heart.

Dazhong Qianzhuang has developed very well this year, and all big cities in Daming have branches of Qianzhuang, and the layout is basically ready.

The exchange business between Beijing and Nanjing is also running very well, and next year it will be able to expand to the most prosperous cities in Daming.

If everything goes well, maybe in the second half of next year, all the big cities in Daming will be able to communicate through Qianzhuang.

It's just that Qian Zhuang's influence is getting bigger and bigger, and I don't know if his power can still protect it.

It seems that I have to give my eldest brother a thorough understanding first.

5-price paper, this simple newspaper, has also spread to various cities along with the money bank.

Judging from the feedback from various places, the situation is not optimistic.

Daming's literacy rate is too low.

More than 95 percent of the population is illiterate.

Such a small literacy rate leads to a pitiful low influence of the newspaper.

In the society of the previous life, thanks to the blessing of decades of compulsory education, almost all the people were literate.

In that society, before the development of the Internet, newspapers were the well-deserved kings of media.

It's a pity that the newspaper was transplanted, and it is still in the stage of adaptation.

If you want to control public opinion, you have to think of other ways.

The newspaper is useless for a while, so let's keep it and develop it slowly.

Nightshade has developed well, relying on money and fertilizer workshops, and has taken deep roots in various cities in Daming. The next step is to solve the huge problem of how to organize it and how to enter the countryside.

Nightshade has a good relationship with the dock workers in various places, and many gangs of laborers have been in their hands, which has laid a good foundation for the expansion of the brothers' warehouse.

The number of four-wheeled vehicles is also stockpiled enough, and the brother warehouse will be able to expand outside the capital after a year.

Zheng Ping has done a very good job in Yanshen Town, and the youth team has expanded to 1,000 people. All kinds of basic training have also been basically completed, and they can't be expanded for the time being, so they have to find a place for them to practice their hands.

On the refugee side, after Niu Er and his teenagers joined, the organization became more and more tight. Water conservancy projects are progressing rapidly and on a larger scale, and now there is a shortage of people on the construction site.

Lack of people? Never mind.

People have.

The nobles of each family also raise a lot of people for my Xinwang Mansion!

Thinking of this, Zhu Youzhen showed a silent smile.

It's time for the mill to expand.

Thinking of the woolen mill, Zhu Youjian became angry.

The plan to disperse to various textile companies is really bad, and what about the best experience in Jiangnan?

Shit.

Thinking of that unreliable proposal, Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but burst into foul language.

In order to better manage the woolen mill, Zhu Youzhen specially recruited a shopkeeper from the south with many years of experience in managing the machine room.

Fortunately, before Zhu Youjian was officially appointed, he carefully discussed the development ideas of the woolen mill with him. Otherwise, if he really wants the shopkeeper to come according to his experience, then Zhu Youzhen will really cry.

The limitations of the times!

Not to mention anything else, the single spinning thread.

Zhu Youzhen is trying his best to gather people together, expand the scale of production as much as possible, and try to improve production efficiency by using assembly line operations.

But the shopkeeper had great resentment against the operation of the workshop.

In the shopkeeper's opinion, it was the right way to disperse to each household to spin the thread independently.

In fact, not only spinning, but also weaving, which shopkeeper also believes that it should be dispersed to each household to complete independently.

In his opinion, Zhu Youjian's woolen workshop only needs to keep the cashmere production. It is good to collect the finished cloth directly from each family.

In fact, considering the production level of this era, what he said also made sense, and he was also sincerely planning for King Xin.

In this era, the textile industry in Jiangnan operated in this way.

From the mouth of the shopkeeper, Zhu Youzhen figured out the operation of the Jiangnan textile industry for the first time.

In Jiangnan, except for high-grade silk, which is made by a professional machine room, other textile industries are scattered to households and independently produced.

Every year, tens of millions or even more than 100 million cotton and linen cloths are collected from retail investors one by one.

Only then did Zhu Youzhen understand why the largest machine room in Daming only had more than 100 looms.

It turns out that people's looms are all looms for weaving high-grade silk. The machine households in Jiangnan do not make ordinary cotton and linen products at all.

The Haoqiang in Jiangnan are actually commodity dealers, and they are not commodity manufacturers at all.

It is no wonder that the germ of capitalism in the Ming Dynasty has always been a bud.

The textile industry in the south of the Ming River is actually a small-scale peasant economy, but it is mainly based on female weaving.

Every household in Jiangnan is weaving, only because the base of textile families is too large, and the output of all small households is gathered together, and the huge number creates an illusion of industrial production.

There is indeed capital in Jiangnan, but this capital only exists in the field of market circulation such as distribution, and does not flow to the manufacturing side.

To put it simply, the capital of Daming Jiangnan is some second-class dealers.

They have a lot of money in their hands, just like hoarding and selling grain, collecting cloth from farmers at a low price and selling it at a higher price.

In the memory of Zhu Youzhen's previous life, China's way of capital operation continued until the Republic of China period, when it slowly died out under the competition of foreign large-scale industrial commodities.

At that time, in the face of cheap industrial goods from abroad, this kind of capital operated in reverse. They buy large quantities from abroad and sell them domestically, greatly suppressing China's local manufacturing industry.

That is the famous comprador economy.

If you just want to make money, maybe this is a good way to do it.

Small risk, big return.

But this method will seriously hinder Zhu Youzhen's plan.

What Zhu Youzhen wants is industry, a big industry in the future, and a well-trained industrial worker in the future, not the immediate interests of this star.

What's more, when the industry takes shape, the huge output brought about by technological progress is by no means comparable to this kind of scattered small-scale production.

However, figuring out the essence of Jiangnan Capital and its operation mode made Zhu Youzhen feel a lot more at ease.

Jiangnan Capital is not his real opponent!
