Chapter 799: Textile Workshop

At this time, Yan Shiyue took Qu Sinian and quietly went to the workshop.

Zhou Jianwei came as soon as he entered Jizhou, and he and Yan Shilan both knelt by the door to greet him.

Yan Shiyue wore an apricot yellow robe, only waved his hand, and walked in.

Because I said it in advance, there was no stop in the workshop, and there was no stop to give gifts, and several factories in Nuoda were bright glass windows, and several textile machines were running together, which really had the feeling of a modern factory.

After a few more years of development, when the cotton is enough, and the balance between cotton, weaving and cloth is imbalanced again, you can make a new type of loom.

Yan Shiyue turned around silently, and a female worker looked at her quietly, and she smiled at her.

After a round of inspection, I left the workshop and went around elsewhere.

Yan Shilan is a person who has no great ability, but he is meticulous and down-to-earth, thoughtful, and in place.

Yan Shiyue nodded: "Not bad." ”

Yan Shilan was overjoyed, kowtowed, and said, "Thank you for your praise." ”

Zhou Jianwei also picked up the account book, Yan Shiyue looked at it hastily, at this time, Wei Xin also explained Zhou's affairs, and Yan Shilan immediately ordered someone to help settle it.

Yan Shiyue said to him: "Go back and take your wife and children." ”

Yan Shilan was overjoyed: "Thank you." ”

Although he is smooth sailing here, he is also worried about his wife and children at home, so that he has no worries and can continue to work steadily.

After the inspection, Zhou Jianwei reported to her: "Xiangye, there is a craftsman here who has made a machine that can weave cloth, I don't know if it is the same as what Xiangye said, do you want to control it?" ”

Yan Shiyue was stunned.

She explained to them the balance of the industrial chain, so Qu Sinian and Zhou Jianwei knew her idea, so if someone made a loom at this time, would it disrupt her plan?

Yan Shiyue said, "Go and see." ”

This carpenter's name is Zheng Jin, the family is a carpenter, and he is well-known in the local area, this Zheng Jin is only in his twenties, this new type of loom is made by him, when Yan Shilan found it, it has been transformed once, and the lady in the family has woven a lot of cloth, but fortunately it has not been sold.

When Yan Shiyue passed, the Zheng family knelt on the ground.

Yan Shiyue said: "No need to be polite. Where is the loom? I'll see? ”

An older man kowtowed and said, "If the nobleman wants a loom, take it away, just ask the nobleman to spare his life!" ”

"Don't be afraid," Qu Sinian helped him up: "This is His Royal Highness Fuyan, let's just come to see, the one who can build the loom is a skilled craftsman, how can he be punished?" The old man was too worried. ”

Uncle Zheng subconsciously glanced at Yan Shiyue, and lowered his head sharply, but that Zheng Jin was bolder, so he took her to the room to see, Yan Shiyue looked at it carefully, and said: "Who can weave, come up and weave and I'll take a look." ”

The lady of the Zheng family hurriedly kowtowed, came up and began to weave slightly, at first her hands were shaking, and she knitted a few times, and then it was smooth, it was indeed much faster than the old-fashioned loom, and it was much finer.

Yan Shiyue thought about it, then asked someone to take a pen and paper, sketched it slightly, and then handed it to Zheng Jin: "Do you think this way, will it be better?" ”

Zheng Jin hurriedly knelt down, took it with both hands, and when he looked at it, he immediately said, "Yes!" That should do the trick! I thought about it for a long time, why didn't I think of it! He immediately stood up: "I'll try it right away!" ”

Mr. Zheng hurriedly said: "Ah Jin! ”

Zheng Jin was stunned for a moment, then he came back to his senses and quickly knelt down again.

Yan Shiyue was helpless, so he bent down slightly and said to them carefully: "Now there is not much fertile land, first of all, we must have a variety of grains, so that people do not go hungry, and the rest can grow cotton, and only after planting cotton can we spin, so the oldest kind of loom is enough to eat all the cotton yarn of the textile factory. ”

The Zheng family was obviously at a loss.

Mr. Zheng has a bit of the wisdom of an old man, and after listening to it, he seemed to understand it, and said hurriedly: "Your Highness, don't worry, we won't sell it." ”

Yan Shiyue said: "You listen to me." We're going to buy your 'technology' to make this, and we're going to give you a sum of money, and from then on, you can't make it at will, and no one else can copy it, and we'll do it when we want to do it." After that, you can enter the workshop of the Ministry of Commerce if you want to, or you can enter if you don't want to, it's up to you. ”

Seeing that he was still at a loss, Yan Shiyue motioned to Zhou Jianwei, and Zhou Jianwei came over and explained to them in detail.

In the end, the Zheng family decided to sell out this "technology" at one time, and then Zheng Jin joined the Ministry of Commerce Workshop, and everyone was happy.

And over there, Emperor Ming Yan took people to inspect the surrounding farmland.

Cotton is grown in many villages near the textile workshop, and at harvest time, there is a hand-cranked ginning machine with the words "Made in the Ministry of Industry" printed on the side of the road, and the cotton seeds are separated by turning, and the white cotton flows out of the export.

Everywhere is thriving, and the people are rich and happy, which is the real peaceful and prosperous world.

After dealing with the matter here, the holy car continued to move forward, the three main themes of this trip, Zhancheng rice, cotton, and textile workshops were solved, and the rest was only to meet the literati in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and everyone's mood was a lot easier.

Yan Shiyue hurried and hurried to write "For Mother".

Then he showed it to the queen. The queen is also literate and hyphenated, and she cannot be called erudite, but she can also see the beauty of this booklet.

So the queen recognized her filial piety, and wrote a preface in her own handwriting, saying that the palace was touched by the matter of Jizhou, and although she was only shallow in learning, she still decided to do her best for the women of the world...... Various.

As a result, the queen was writing over there, and Emperor Ming Yan came in and saw the booklet written by Yan Shiyue.

It's just a literacy book for women, it's not long, Emperor Ming Yan finished reading it in a while, and then he discussed with Yan Shiyue: "Yue'er, this thing should be written by your mother, can it be done?" ”

Yan Shiyue had already told the queen just now that she wanted to put it in her name, and then as soon as Emperor Ming Yan said it, she deliberately said: "Why! ”

Emperor Ming Yan explained to her: "Your aunt is a country. Mother, the identity is suppressed, and it is more reasonable for her to come forward. And your aunt, after all, is a businessman, and if there is such a thing, you can also block your mouth. ”

Yan Shiyue said: "Okay then! But what's in it for me? ”

Emperor Ming Yan thought for a while: "There is a jade cabbage more than one person tall in the library, and when I return to the palace, I will give it to Yue'er." ”

"Okay!" Yan Shiyue said: "Is there anything else?" ”

Emperor Ming Yan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I have a set of glass cups, which are very delicate, and I can also give them to you." By the way, I have a few rather large coral trees, you can pick one then, and I still have ......."

"That's it!" The queen finally couldn't help it, lifted the curtain and came out, and said with a smile: "I've never seen such a greedy person, want to collect all the good things of your Aye!" As he spoke, he placed the written preface on the table.

Emperor Ming Yan picked it up with a smile and looked at it, and said with a smile: "I rewarded her." ”
