Looking at the unfathomable darkness in front of him, Chu Qiguang's consciousness seemed to gradually stop thinking at this moment, and countless strange murmurs and grotesque whispers poured into his mind.

The bizarre images kept jumping in his sea of consciousness, as if to pull his spirit into a bottomless magnificent dream, as if he was fascinated......

Until a voice exploded in his ears.

"You're you again......"

The dry and hoarse voice exploded in Chu Qiguang's mind like a thunderbolt, completely tearing apart the tranquility in Chu Qiguang's consciousness.

When Chu Qiguang came back to his senses, he found that he was still standing in front of the water-powered spinning machine and the water-powered loom.

He felt that his spirit had just been sublimated, and the path to the fifth realm of cultivation had suddenly gone from the original thirty percent to the sixth percent, and there was still forty percent left to break through to the fifth realm.

'It's a big boost...... It's even bigger than the last time I was in the ring. ’

"But something seems to have happened just now...... Chu Qiguang frowned, but he always felt as if he had forgotten something: 'Huh?'

Suddenly, Chu Qiguang felt some pain in his chest, as if someone had cut some kind of wound on his flesh with a knife.

'What'

However, that strange feeling came and went quickly, as if it was some kind of hallucination, and it disappeared quickly, Chu Qiguang didn't have time to think about it, and saw that everyone in the audience had continued their work today.

'Cut this wave of leeks first, and then go back and see what's going on in your chest.' ’

With the introduction of two looms, the atmosphere is at its climax all at once.

The crowd kept squeezing towards the machine on the stage, as if trying to see every step of the machine's movement.

When it was confirmed that there was no one to operate, and when they saw the efficiency of spinning and weaving, the audience couldn't help but let out a sound of surprise and admiration.

"There really isn't a need for human labor. ”

"It's so fast, it's much more efficient than a weaver in a normal workshop. ”

"It's really weird, how does this thing move?"

Some people just look at it strangely, but some people combine the various data just given by Chu Qiguang and see the huge commercial value from these two machines.

Wang Cailiang's father and son were also invited over, and at this moment, his father Wang Chengwang looked at the two machines with wide eyes: "These two machines are worth ten thousand gold." ”

He turned his head and looked at Wang Cailiang fiercely: "You said that Chu Xian's nephew really wants to give this opportunity to make money to so many people?" Seeing Wang Cailiang nodded, he was puzzled: "I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out." ”

At the same time, Chu Qiguang on the stage has continued: "These two textile machines cover all the processes from cotton to cotton yarn to cotton cloth, not only do not require labor, but the productivity has been increased by 20 times. ”

"And the cost of a machine is only forty or fifty taels of silver. ”

Hearing this, there was another exclamation from below.

Chu Qiguang clapped his hands, and a new picture scroll fell from the rear, on which was a comparison of the production capacity of traditional machines and hydraulic machines.

"Traditional handmade machinery, the spinner can get four or five taels of yarn a day, and the weaver can get a piece of cloth a day. ”

The new hydraulic machine can work day and night, and the productivity is 20 times that of the traditional machine, and one machine can get 50 cotton cloth in one day. Even if it is limited by the seasonal influence of the river water volume, it can produce more than 10,000 horses of cloth a year. ”

"After deducting labor costs, there is no cotton cloth on the market that can compete with us for a price, and we will sweep the cotton spinning market in the north. ”

"If it's a hundred new machines, it's a million pieces of cotton cloth a year. ”

"A piece of cotton cloth is priced at 3 yuan in Lingzhou, if it is sold to the demon clan market...... Even if it is only sold for 6 yuan, a million horses can get 600,000 taels of silver. ”

At the same time, a new picture scroll fell again, and above it was the cotton market in several northern states.

"If it's a thousand new machines, that's 10 million cotton in a year. ”

"If you sell it to the people in the north such as Lingzhou, Yongzhou, and Jingzhou, even if you only sell it for 2 yuan of silver, you can get 2 million taels of silver a year. ”

"And a thousand looms, a thousand spinning machines, only a hundred thousand taels of silver. ”

"The bulk is still cotton, and if you want to weave 10 million horses, you need about 11 million catties of cotton, and if you don't have enough locally, you have to import it from other places, so that cotton is about 6 cents of silver per catty, which is 660,000 taels of silver. ”

Listening to Chu Qiguang's words, everyone present was already excited.

And what Chu Qiguang said next made them even more excited.

Chu Qiguang opened his arms and said: "But I worked hard with Wu Daguan and Abbot Chenzhu to develop these two new machines, but not only to make money, but also to build Qingyang County, and to bring all the families here to earn silver together." ”

"So I decided with the two of you that we will hold a total of 50% of the shares, and the remaining 50% will be transferred to all of you here, and we will set up a Qingyang Chamber of Commerce with you to give the benefits to the villagers. ”

Hearing this, the people below were all more excited than the other, and they all wanted to get a piece of the business of millions of taels of silver.

"But there are a large number of people, and we are afraid that the fifty percent of the shares will not be divided, so we divide the fifty percent of the shares into 10,000 shares. ”

Everyone present was slightly stunned, it was the first time they had heard such a practice, but after thinking about it carefully, they understood that it was just a finer share.

Some of them are already thinking about how much money each share can be shared.

The original Chu Qiguang contributed 3,000 taels to account for 20% of the shares, and Wu Wei and Taoist Temple each contributed 10,000 taels, accounting for 40% of the shares.

Now Chu Qiguang has 2,000 shares, and Wu Wei and Daoguan have 4,000 shares each.

"Each share is currently priced at 10 taels of silver. ”

"Holders of shares can trade shares at the headquarters of the Qingyang Chamber of Commerce, which is currently tentatively here. ”

The trading price of each share is also published here every day. ”

"Although the shares can be traded, the Chamber of Commerce only registers the change of shareholders once a year. ”

Of course, there is a bunch of dense rules and regulations and the power of the Chamber of Commerce to supervise stocks that have been listed by Chu Qiguang, and no one can understand it yet, but in the future, Chu Qiguang will secretly short, wash the plates, knock on the bank, and sit in the bank...... I guess you understand.

The next step was to subscribe for shares, and there were nearly forty households in total, from the richest Hao family, a high-ranking official, to the most ordinary Wang family, a landlord's family.

Under a series of stimuli from Chu Qiguang, the shares with a total price of 100,000 taels of silver were quickly divided.

After all, not long after copying the Ding family together, there is no place to spend the silver in the hands of these local tycoons in Qingyang County.

"100,000 taels of silver just got together?" Wu Wei was still a little stunned when he looked at this scene, and then thought about the shares he originally invested in 10,000 taels of silver, which was worth 40,000 taels?

For the first time, he felt that it was so easy to make money.

When he told Chu Qiguang about this idea, the other party told him...... This is just the beginning.

Two days later, Wu Wei understood why Chu Qiguang said this, because the price per share had risen from 10 taels to 12 taels.
