Zhu Gaochi didn't understand why his father tightened his belt and squeezed out the money from between his teeth to make this treasure shipyard, what was worth investing in the treasure shipyard that had never made any profit from the beginning. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

He didn't understand it himself and couldn't figure it out, but Tang Ming, who was sitting next to him, understood this very well, and might be able to get an explanation from him.

"Do you know why my father values the Treasure Shipyard so much, and the investment in it is an astronomical amount every year. The treasury is already empty now, but the father and mother still tightened their belts and desperately filled it, even Inspector Zheng took the fleet to sea, and the treasure shipyard is now vacant, and it costs 35 taels of silver every month to maintain it, is it necessary? ”

What Zhu Gaochi said earlier, Tang Ming listened to it with his left ear and his right ear immediately came out, anyway, he didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the emperor's family, especially when it was related to family affairs. It was Zhu Gaochi's last sentence of 350,000 taels of silver that shocked Tang Ming's spirits.

Good guy, he originally only estimated that the monthly consumption of the Treasure Shipyard was only 250,000 taels of silver, but now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince inadvertently said this figure was very tempting to Tang Ming. 350,000 taels, then he can save another 100,000 taels of silver every month.

This is great news, Tang Ming was in a good mood in an instant, and said with a smile: "Actually, why do you have to care so much, I don't know how the previous Treasure Shipyard was?" I don't need to know how much I have to spend every month and every year, in short, I won't let him lose money if I take over the treasure shipyard, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is waiting to count the money! ”

Tang Ming's heroic words also seemed to infect Zhu Gaochi's emotions, and he let go of his mind and became happy with Tang Ming. After all, he is only a temporary agent now, and there is an old lady watching behind him, if he starts to worry about this at this moment, it will be too early.

The treasure shipyard is now Tang Ming in charge, and a few people in charge have already received the request to inspect the shipyard in the morning, no one dares to slack off, and a few old guys are waiting outside the gate of the treasure shipyard early.

Once a son of heaven and a courtier, this sentence is also used in this treasure shipyard, Tang Ming is Zheng He's righteous son and the youngest marquis of the Ming Dynasty. The people who stayed in these treasure shipyards to take care of things were all old and frail old people, all of them were born in craftsmen, not only did they have no status in front of the official family, but they had no salary to work here all their lives, and they should have done a good job, and if they didn't do well, they would lose their lives every minute.

The reason why science and technology in ancient times were underdeveloped was because of this hateful artisan household system, they paid unimaginable efforts for ordinary people, but in the end they only got a meager amount of money that was only enough to support their families.

This is still under Zheng He's subordinates, if he encounters a boss who picks the door, then they are no different from livestock. Under such a system, how much success do you want to rely on these people?

Tang Ming had long been well aware of the problem of surplus craftsmen in the Treasure Shipyard, especially for Zheng He, who had followed him all his life, he was reluctant to let those old and frail old people leave, but still arranged them in the Treasure Shipyard to do some chores.

This is also the reason why most of the young and middle-aged people in the treasure shipyard are still so large in monthly expenses, and he believes that as long as he can find a way to arrange these old people who have lost their labor force, he can save a lot of silver taels every month.

Layoffs are inevitable, and the Treasure Shipyard can only maintain its strong vitality in an energetic atmosphere, rather than be led to perdition by a group of dying old men. It was a difficult problem, but in Tang Ming's opinion, it was not difficult, so he came.

The news of wanting all the old people in the treasure shipyard to leave, as soon as the news spread in the treasure shipyard, it caused a disgruntled resistance. But these craftsmen dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, they could only cowardly pray for the Hou Ye not to clean themselves out.

The treasure shipyard is filled with contradictory emotions, the craftsmen are both afraid and hateful to Tang Ming, on the surface, they have been waiting at the door for a long time, and these old stewards are all promoted according to their seniority and seniority when Zheng He left, what they want is that they can assist Tang Ming to maintain this treasure shipyard well.

But they didn't expect that as soon as the supervisor left, Tang Ming was going to come to the treasure shipyard to cleanse, and the loss of life was worse than asking for human life, they were all old people with one foot in the coffin, and they were not afraid of death, what they were afraid of was what kind of dissatisfaction they were showing, Tang Ming would vent his anger on their children and grandchildren, then they would lose more than they gained.

The tormented wait finally waited for Tang Ming, there was no scene they imagined, Tang Ming was very polite to them old cadres when he got out of the carriage, and the etiquette was quite thoughtful and sincere, and there was no sign of deception.

This made a few old stewards confused, the person who came to deliver the message yesterday said solemnly, Hou Ye wanted to take the treasure shipyard to open the knife, saying that the new official took office three fires, the first fire is to burn on the bodies of these old people, not only to remove them from their positions but also to drive them out of the treasure shipyard, not to let them continue to stay here, but also to give the young people in the treasure shipyard a chance to take the position.

But Tang Ming's performance at the moment completely subverted their inherent concepts, and their confused and overwhelmed expressions jumped on the faces of several old stewards, and they were disturbed by Tang Ming's performance at this moment, and they didn't know which side to believe.

The different colors on the faces of several people Tang Ming saw it in his eyes, he was also confused how these people were all at a loss for expression, frowning, Tang Ming asked tentatively: "A few old men, please speak up, your whole life has been dedicated to the treasure shipyard, and now you are not entrusted by your father-in-law to manage the treasure shipyard, a few people are the most senior people here, I believe that you can represent all the craftsmen in the entire treasure shipyard, so you can say anything bluntly, as long as this marquis can do his best, it will live up to expectations." ”

"That's true!"

The one who spoke was the oldest of the several people, who had been staying here since the beginning of the establishment of the Treasure Shipyard, and was also the first person Zheng He trusted the most. They are all hard-working with their hands, and they rely on experience and technology, as well as indomitable diligence.

It is their blood that is swayed, they are the loveliest working people at the bottom, they don't ask for much, as long as their families are safe, enough food and clothing. But this is an unattainable wish, and they are not even as good as the farmers who own their own land and can have enough food and clothing by hard work.

The old man is an anxious person and a real person, others pull him not to speak, but he stands up and speaks directly. In the eyes of his old man, the righteous son of the Overseer would never treat them as rumored, so he was willing to be the first to take the risk and become the first bird. (To be continued.) )
