Therefore, these people all followed Li Sanye with some ill will. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info They want to see the joke of this Changlong silk reeling factory: it is obviously a small workshop, and it has hired ten helpers, and it is half-baked, just now, the equipment is just like this, shabby and shabby, and they dare to call themselves factories, not workshops! It's really a joke, Li Sanye's silk reeling workshop, but there are hundreds of people, dozens of hot pots, and they don't dare to call it a factory. His Changlong silk reeling factory is good, just two iron pots and a ceramic cylinder, even if it is a few bigger, it can't be compared with the scale of Li Sanye's family.

Li Sanye deliberately said that he would let Chen Qiyuan take out the ten catties of raw silk reeled by their silk reeling factory at this hour and show it to everyone. Li Sanye clearly knew that with the production capacity of their Changlong silk reeling factory, it was impossible to take out how much raw silk in an hour, let alone ten catties, even two or three catties they couldn't take out, just kidding, 10 people, 10 people in the silk reeling workshop, even if all 10 people were bet, everything was ready, and in an hour, it would be at most one or two catties of raw silk.

But just this effort, several helpers have already walked out with two baskets of raw silk, and what stunned everyone is that these two baskets of raw silk are at least more than ten catties.

The young descendant surnamed Chen grinned, and invited everyone to touch this silk and evaluate the good. Isn't that just laughing at yourself?

Li Sanye thought to himself, this is impossible, this must be raw silk prepared in advance.

He just wanted to open his mouth to expose that this raw silk was old silk, and the color was not good, but he didn't expect an exclamation in his ears: "Oh my God, this silk is still warm, it must have just come out of the hot kettle, but it is not damp at all, warm and delicate!" This, how is this done! ”

But he is a shopkeeper of a silk reeling workshop on the outskirts of Nanhai County, who has been operating the silk reeling industry for more than 20 years, and is a veteran, and even he was shocked on the spot.

Another silk reeling workshop owner also said enviously: "Yes." It's hard to believe that this silk, by the way, has also dried up the raw silk, which is simply amazing. ”

Li Sanye's words came to his mouth, and he had to swallow it back! Are you kidding? It's really just freshly reeled raw silk, and it's still a high-quality raw silk!

Next, Chen Qiyuan actually proposed to let everyone go to see the silk reeling machine.

Under the leadership of the helper, everyone came to the silk reeling section in the center of the factory, and saw two silk reeling machines driven by the steam engine, constantly reeling silk.

Li Sanye and the other silk reeling workshop owners all changed their faces: How is it possible? If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would have believed that these two silk reeling machines, only four people took care of them, and there were as many as dozens of silk positions, which was equivalent to forty or fifty people reeling silk at the same time.

After visiting the silk reeling machine, Pan Jingwei took the raw silk in his hand on the spot and said: "Boss Chen, the machine silk reeling of your Changlong Silk Reeling Factory is smooth and clean, uniform in thickness, and elastic, which is really the best raw silk." Pan is in charge, he can give you the best raw silk and buy it at a purchase price that is 20% higher than the market price of ordinary native silk. ”

Li Sanye and the other silk reeling workshop owners are full of bitterness, they look envious and jealous, you know, their raw silk can often be said by Commissioner Pan is not good, down the price, not to mention the best, not even a grade, at most can only be regarded as ordinary raw silk for sale.

I can't imagine that this small Changlong silk reeling factory, a small workshop with only 10 employees, has just trial-produced the first batch of raw silk, and it can be evaluated by Commissioner Pan and sold at such a good price, which is also too shocking!

What makes them most depressed is that the triumphant young offspring Chen Qiyuan actually said that the machine reeling silk, one person can be worth more than ten skilled silk workers, fifty pounds of silk reeling per day, the products are of high quality, their current two silk reeling machines are just experiments, and then they are ready to expand their business and add more silk reeling machines, to reach the scale of hundreds of units, and hundreds of helpers will be invited.

Oh my God, if that were the case, wouldn't all the money be earned by this young offspring? No, I have to buy such a silk reeling machine when I go back.

Li Sanye quickly made up his mind in his heart, and looked at the rest of the county's silk reeling workshop owners, all of whom were full of heat, presumably with this thought.

………

A few days later, the Changlong Silk Reeling Factory borrowed money to purchase a new steam engine and a silk reeling machine, and added machinery and equipment to expand the scale.

Soon, the daily output of raw silk reached more than five or six hundred catties, and more than five quintals of raw silk could be produced every day, which still did not start day and night, if the start time was extended, I am afraid that it would be possible to produce two hundred quintals of raw silk per month. According to the purchase of silkworm cocoons and the sale of raw silk price difference, each load of raw silk sold to Nanyang Company, not counting taxes, can be sold 280 taels, this year I heard that because of the floods in Europe, the price of raw silk is high, the purchase price of the best raw silk Nanyang Company can reach 300 taels of silver per load, in this way, Changlong silk reeling factory monthly flow can reach 60,000 taels, of course, now the imperial court has asked not to settle in silver, all changed to holy currency, that is, 90,000 yuan.

Now that the business of the Changlong Silk Reeling Factory is booming, Chen Qishu is glad that he listened to his younger brother and did not go to Annam. Doing a small business in a foreign country, even if you make money, how can you live a happy life like now? In his hometown, guarding his old father, the daily wealth is rolling, and the silver like a tide, oh, it is Shengyuan, flocking into the account.

But Chen Qiyuan is not satisfied. The tens of thousands of yuan of profits earned in one month of production were all invested in the purchase of silkworm cocoons and the purchase of equipment. The "Changlong foreign silk" produced by the machine has a clear color, uniform thickness, no silk skin, and smooth unraveling. As soon as the factory is put into operation, the goods are like rotation, and the production and sales are booming.

Because it was winter, there were not many silkworm cocoons, and soon, even the winter inventory of silkworm cocoons in Nanhai County was emptied, and Changlong Silk Reeling Factory sent people to nearby Shunde, Dongguan, Huaxian, Zhaoqing and other places to buy silkworm cocoons. In addition, Chen Qiyuan signed an agreement with Sannong in Shunde and other places in the South China Sea in advance, agreeing that all the silkworm cocoons in the coming year will be sold to Changlong Silk Reeling Factory.

For a time, Changlong silk reeling factory has become the star of the silk industry in Nanhai County and even Guangzhou, Chen Qiyuan has also become famous in Nanhai County, Nanhai County and Guangzhou Prefecture large and small silk reeling workshops have sent people to Xiqiao Township Jian Village Changlong Silk Reeling Factory, during the Chinese New Year and after the New Year, there are workshops almost every other day to visit and study, ready to go back to the next year to imitate the construction of this Western machine of silk reeling factory, expand the scale.

Among them, especially Li Sanye, he came several times, looked inside and out of the Changlong Silk Reeling Factory, and even found a painter to draw the layout and machines in the Silk Reeling Factory, and even the helpers, into the album bit by bit, preparing to return to Foshan Town on the outskirts of the South China Sea, and re-copy the entire Changlong Silk Reeling Factory.

In this way, after the New Year, the imitation of the new silk reeling factories will spring up like mushrooms after a rain, one after another, there are five or six in Nanhai County alone, each of which hires one or two hundred female workers. Among them, Li Sanye recruited several fellow squires from Foshan to open a Foshan Li's silk reeling factory three or four times larger than the Changlong silk reeling factory, they had a lot of money, and actually hired more than 700 people, all the original old-fashioned silk reeling shelves were abandoned, and dozens of silk reeling machines were ordered from the first machine factory, and they were ambitiously ready to do a big job.

Not only Nanhai County, other neighboring areas, Shunde, a large silk production county, is to begin to build nearly 20 new silk reeling factories, as well as more than 10 in the city and suburbs of Guangzhou at the same time, for a time, the entire Guangzhou Mansion, Zhaoqing Mansion, many mulberry farmers have begun to expand the scale of silkworm breeding in the coming year, this is not enough, but also radiated to Huizhou Mansion, Shaozhou Mansion, Gaozhou Mansion, the real Guangxi Wuzhou Mansion and other places, the villagers have planted mulberry leaves, ready to raise silkworms.

Not only that, the construction of the silk reeling factory in the area of Guangzhou Prefecture has also led to the large-scale sales and fame of the first machine factory of Nanyang Company.

For example, Li Sanye, who has deep pockets, with the help of Nanhai County Magistrate Hong Renji, ordered several looms powered by steam engines from the No. 1 Machinery Factory of Nanyang Company, and tried to open a small cotton and linen weaving factory.

The efficiency of this steam loom is more than ten times that of skilled looms, and the cloth woven by this is exactly the same as the foreign cloth sold in Guangzhou, exquisite and fine, and the cost of the foreign cloth produced is much lower, even if the price is one percent cheaper than the homespun cloth, the profit is still amazing. As soon as it was put into the Foshan town market, it was sold out. Li Sanye was overjoyed, and hurriedly ordered steam engines and looms from the First Machinery Factory of Nanyang Company, preparing to expand the scale, as if he had discovered a huge treasure and fell into the ocean of wealth!
