They gathered around Chen Mu, and you talked about the young man surnamed Li word by word.

"That man, he didn't farm well, and he didn't learn his father's trades, so he squandered all the money his father had saved."

"He says what he wants to do every day...... What can be done to replace the weaving of a craftsman? ”

"When we heard him say that, we all thought he was joking, he studied for several years and didn't come up with a famous name, and in the end he squandered all the money that his father left for him to marry his daughter-in-law."

"Now I look like I'm going to be thirty, and I don't have a wife."

"His father left a few years ago, his mother also remarried, he only has one younger brother and sister under his knees, and he often forgets his younger brother and sister in order to make up for the useless things he has at hand."

"The one who made those two children hungry and full, tsk, if you want me to say, this man is crazy."

"That's right, that's why we said that he is not a good thing, if he is a serious person, learn the craft that his father taught him, he will be able to make a living and bring up two children."

"Those two children play crazy at the entrance of the town all day long, and if it weren't for the help of kind neighbors, those two children would not live to be where they are today!"

"He often left his two children outside the house in order to study the things in his hands, and sometimes the two children were locked out of the house by him and had to sleep on the street."

"But fortunately, those two children have good personalities and good tempers, but they haven't blamed their eldest brother for this."

"The two children are also big-hearted, but then again, after all, they are children, their eldest brother is their only relative, and they have nothing to rely on, even if they are dissatisfied with their eldest brother, what can they do?"

"Alas, it's good that our neighbors on the street take care of it, and remember to give one to the two children if they have food, but the young man is really ......"

When several people said this, they all shook their heads again and again, and a little helplessness appeared in their eyes.

And when Chen Mu heard those people say this, he was stunned, and his eyes moved slightly.

Wait a minute......

Textile equipment that can replace human labor?

Isn't this what he's been pondering these days?

He already had an idea, and he knew how the device should be made.

It's just that if you want to mass produce such equipment, you still need to make overall arrangements and set up a special government office.

He didn't expect that some people in this folk would actually think of textile equipment to replace manpower!

Chen Mu immediately sat up straight, and the people were still talking to Chen Mu about the young man surnamed Li.

"That kid's father is a well-known weaver in our town, and the craft of weaving is not said to be passed on to women but not to men, but his father is interested in the craft of weaving."

"Later, I learned from the boy's grandmother, and after learning, his father's weaving skills became more and more exquisite, and the woven fabric was solid and soft."

"The people in our village are willing to go to his father's place to buy cloth, and his father's cloth is not cheap, but fortunately, the craftsmanship of the people is good."

"If this kid can learn his father's craft, his two younger siblings can be sent to the academy by him!"

"Now the two children look at their age, and I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also issued a decree saying that female students should be allowed to study in the hall."

"In my opinion, the girl in her family is also clever, and she can clearly enter the school to study."

"But he squandered all the money in the family, and he didn't care about his two younger siblings at all."

The more the people talked, the more indignant they became, Chen Mu saw them like this, his eyes moved slightly, and he also guessed that most of these people were what they said, one of the neighbors who helped the young man surnamed Li.

This is really frustrating to say.

If the young man really did what the people said. A step-by-step life.

After learning his father's trade, he was able to provide for his family well, and his younger siblings were also able to be taken care of.

It's just that everyone has their own ambitions, and it can't be said that young people study these things badly.

It's a pity that the young man has never met Bole, and for various reasons, he has a bad reputation.

A little thoughtful look appeared on Chen Mu's face.

He had the intention of recruiting this young man to the capital, so that the scholars in the capital could train him, and see if he could let the young man develop the so-called weaving equipment that replaced manpower.

This thought flashed through Chen Mu's mind, he turned his head and glanced out the window again, and then said slowly.

"Maybe he has a good idea, if we can really develop a weaving machine to replace human labor, then the scale of cloth production can be expanded."

"The more cloth the merchant has, the less money he needs to buy the cloth, and the merchant no longer has to pay for manpower."

After Chen Mu said this, the people glanced at each other.

They didn't understand the individual words in what Chen Mu said, but they understood what Chen Mu meant.

One of the people immediately shook his head and said with emotion.

"This son, although you have foresight, you still don't understand the lives of our people."

"If this young man really researched any textile equipment to replace the weavers, what about the craftsmen who had learned the craft of weaving?"

"Isn't this equivalent to stealing someone's job? And it's the kind that lifts everyone's old bottoms. ”

Chen Mu was stunned when he heard the people say this, and then immediately frowned again.

On the contrary, if the weaving equipment is studied, the folk weaving craftsmen will have no way to live.

Chen Mu smacked his lips, thinking to himself in his heart.

It seems that before he can develop this instrument, he will have to find a way out for the folk craftsmen.

Otherwise, those people will lose their jobs and have no way to live, and they will definitely make trouble.

Chen Mu pondered and pondered, thought about it again, and thought of a good idea.

Instead, folk craftsmen can be recruited to learn how to operate the weaving machine, and then they will be the first batch of folk workers to operate the machine.

In this way, the craftsmen will have a way to live, and they will not have to weave as hard as before to support themselves.

Only operate the instrument and use the instrument to weave cloth, in exchange for silver for yourself, than you earn more silver than your own hard weaving, and it is more labor-saving.

Chen Mu thought about it like this, and shook his head silently.

At present, even the weaving apparatus had not been studied, and it seemed too long for him to think about it.

However, it was only a matter of time before he could develop textile equipment, after all, he knew how to design and improve textile equipment.

When the young man is called to him, he will be able to study the weaving apparatus by talking to the other party.

From the research of the first weaving equipment to the promotion of weaving equipment to the people.
