Charlie's Chinese is good, but it has not reached the point of China passing, listening to the comprador translate the words of this young man, his face suddenly turned cold, and he said calmly: "Are you insulting our British Empire?" ”

"What, angry?" The young man was not afraid, and said calmly.

"If you don't show evidence today, don't care about me turning my face and being ruthless." Charlie said with a calm expression, the citizens of the British Empire, in this world, are full of arrogance wherever they go, not to mention in China, not to mention the British, even other foreigners, in China can also get a lot of super-national treatment, it can be said that if the young man does not give him a satisfactory answer, he will even use the power of the British official.

"Just to show you!" The young man waved his hand and said, "Let's all move!" ”

With this sentence falling, at the other end of the entire exposition, the place that was covered by the huge canvas, the canvas fell, occupying almost one-third of the entire exhibition, I don't know when, set up booths one by one, the name of the Northwest United Company suddenly appeared in the column, a huge picture, introducing a machine, from the picture to the basic description, all are everything.

It is Yang Yuanzhao who speaks, as a traverser, Yang Yuanzhao is very aware of the importance of sales, China is now, is an all-round lack, from workers, to factory owners, and even light industry, relying on his strength alone, even the power of the northwest, can not make a comprehensive change, the northwest production capacity is huge, by the end of this year, you can expand the textile complex of one million spindles, this consortium, almost equivalent to the production capacity of ten million spindles, but this production capacity, at most can only radiate the entire west, at most affect some cities in the central part, the southeast coast and the northeast, basically, are not able to get involved.

Light industry, small investment, quick results, make a lot of money, but a certain process, can not bring about the improvement of national strength, just like before 1840, the Qing Dynasty's gross national product, has always occupied the world's first, more than Britain, but most of them are light industry, such as tea, silk and the like, these are not enough to form the strength of the country, only machine qì industry, heavy industry, is the backbone of a country.

From the beginning of crossing to Baotou, Baotou has been planning to China's Ruhr, the textile industry and other light industries are on the ground, on the one hand, it is to attract a group of people, on the other hand, it is to train skilled workers, now the basic workers are enough, hundreds of thousands of people, every night school and various training, will let them gradually from an ordinary worker, grow into a real industrial worker, in this case, the importance of light industry is not much.

Of course, Yang Yuanzhao will not give up light industry, the next war, light industry will accumulate huge wealth, as long as there is enough industrial volume, enough to complete China's most primitive accumulation, for the future of the national industrialization to lay a foundation, at this time, the promotion of machine qì and expansion of production capacity, has become the most important thing.

Wuhan Quanye Award into the scale of the meeting is not small, but the expo field is a little too big relative to the exhibitors, the Northwest United Company lobbied Chen Kuilong, at the cost of 50,000 yuan, obtained a third of the entire exhibition hall, in order to make a blockbuster, they have been secretly arranged, every day in and out is another entrance, the entrance is generally not opened, after the layout is down, no one knows, this day's time, Yang Yuanzhao sent people to explore the exhibition hall, found a little gratifying things, It seems that along with the best-selling products in the Northwest, some landlords have also begun to notice what is being produced, and they may become the first factory owners.

China's accumulation of thousands of years, especially before 1840, has always been the world's largest gross national product, the hard-working Chinese, accumulated huge wealth, the people have always been rich, if this money is attracted, how much effect can it have, perhaps in two or three years, light industry factories, will be all over the land of China, hard-working Chinese, relatively cheap salary level, these things are destined to come out, will have great competitiveness.

This is equivalent to saying that a huge industry has been cultivated for China, and in later generations China, the cotton textile industry has always been the world's first-class, and the Chinese, born in this industry, occupy a considerable advantage.

Zhang Cheng and Zhou Qi because of curiosity, followed Charlie and Yang Yuanzhao to the booth of the Northwest Company, followed them to see the lively, there are a lot, people who are interested in cotton textiles, the late Qing Dynasty's attention to the textile industry, but also let more and more gentry invest in this industry, including Zhang Jian, his Dasheng cotton textile factory, has determined to expand production capacity, but is still hesitating, whether it is imported from Japan or Britain, Japan's price is low, but stability is not good, often there are problems, Fortunately, the Japanese mechanics guarantee to deal with it at any time, and the British quality is good, but the price is expensive, almost more than double the Japanese one, and this investment is a bit huge.

Northwest cloth, Zhang Jian has heard of it, it sells very well in the north, and the color cloth and brocade cloth also have a huge sensation in the market, but the influence is too small, if it is not for such a scene in the booth here, Zhang Jian will not pay attention, when the northwest completely lights up the brand, his eyes are slightly bright.

In fact, on the whole exhibition, all of a sudden, the tightly wrapped things were shown, or so outstandingly displayed, not only the British foreign booth near the attracted, but also many people in other places were attracted, and suddenly this vast booth was wrapped in three layers inside and three layers outside.

Charlie knows some Chinese words, besides, he is a textile engineer himself, textile machinery has not changed much, soon, on the Chinese machinery, found a loom, and their loom is not the same, this loom is extremely wide, almost twice as wide as the British loom, as a textile expert, he knows very well, what does the format represent, this is also a problem that the British have been solving, the width of the thick branch is a little wider, easy to solve, after all, the control zhì up, the thick branch is not easy to break, but the thin branch, the width is too wide, It will cause a series of problems in fixing and weaving, such as too much fixed force, which will directly break, or when weaving, there will be needle breakage and thread routing problems, which are the most difficult points in textiles.

"What do you think is a textile, casually increasing the large size, it will only cause an increase in failures!" Charlie said disdainfully.

What Charlie said is actually most people's questions, but Zhang Cheng was not affected, he seemed to have discovered the new world, this kind of cloth, he has sold, from fine to coarse, have sold, because of the wide width, you can make more things, the price is a little more expensive, but it sells very well, it is the most popular product, which is also the biggest feature of the Northwest cloth.

Zhang Cheng looked around, and there happened to be a person wearing the costume of the Northwest Company, he stepped forward and asked, "What is the output of this loom!" ”

"This is the No. 7 loom of our Northwest Textile, and skilled workers can produce 24 horses per day!" The staff have been trained, and they are familiar with some of the basic numbers of the exhibits, not to mention that this loom is also the fist product launched by Baotou at present, and it is almost said in one breath.

"24 horses?" Zhang Cheng said excitedly: "Is it a small horse?" ”

Small horses, that is, only half of the size, the most commonly used horses in China, that is to say, according to the words of this big horse, it is 12 horses, such a number is already very amazing, you know, the British small horses, the daily output is only 3 horses, a difference of 4 times.

"Of course it's this big horse." The employee proudly pointed to the large piece of cloth that was hung out not far away and said.

Charlie, who heard it next to him, said disdainfully: "Don't be ashamed, what we British can't do, you can do it." ”

Charlie's reaction, right in the arms of Yang Yuanzhao, was originally just to promote Baotou's products, what is better than stepping on someone else's upper position, to be honest, today he inserted it next to the British booth, also with this idea, I didn't expect the other party to be so cooperative, and came over directly, which made his actions more targeted, especially when someone came up to ask, and it was so upright.

"Looks like Mr. Charlie doesn't believe it anymore!"

"Of course, who wouldn't brag!"

Yang Yuanzhao waved his hand and said: "Hearing is false, seeing is believing, all the machines of our Northwest United Company can be used, if you are interested, we can do it on the spot." ”

The surrounding onlookers applauded, Chinese, have always liked to be lively, come to the persuasion industry to see the products, the real purchase is still a minority, most of them are ordinary Wuhan residents, they come with the mentality of watching the excitement, mostly to increase their knowledge, can also be used as a talking point for future bragging.

How fresh, the Chinese and foreigners are right, not in the traditional industry, silk, but in the field of machine qì, the Chinese made zuò more advanced textile machine qì than the British, and even to the real yàn on the spot, whether successful or not, is a rare and rare thing.

"I'd like to see how you get back!" Charlie copied his hand and stood there calmly, but in his heart, it was like turning over the river and the sea, this young man is so confident, is this machine really so good, impossible, the British Empire's textile machine is the first in the world, this is not self-appointed, it is determined by the textile and industrial achievements over the years, as a textile person, Charlie is very proud of this.

There are more and more people watching the excitement, here has become the focus of the entire exhibition hall, there are also a group of Chinese businessmen who are interested in the textile industry and want to devote themselves to the industry, looking more attentively, no matter how much this thing costs, as long as he can be more efficient than the British loom, for the pursuit of cost and profit of Chinese businessmen, the choice can be made directly.
