Chapter 262: Grand Planning

He shook his head silently, and when he was about to refuse Chen Mu's kindness, he heard Chen Mu say again.

"You don't have to be in a hurry to refuse me, after all, you have already been targeted by that rich businessman surnamed Xu."

"He's made up his mind to get the weaving device from you."

"If you go back, you will still be harassed by those ruffians and hooligans in the next few days, you can not care about your own life, but you have to care about the life of your brother and sister."

"These two children are powerless, what if they go back to live with you and are targeted by those ruffians?"

Hearing Chen Mu say this, a little cautious appeared on Li Mao's face.

He pondered for a moment, frowned, and finally nodded in agreement.

Although he didn't want to trouble Chen Mu, he also knew that Chen Mu's words did have some truth.

Chen Mu saw Li Mao's response, so he waved his hand to Li Mao.

Li Mao left the guest room with his younger siblings and stayed in this inn under the arrangement of Chen Mu's guards.

Wait until the footsteps of Li Mao and the two children disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Meng Qing turned her head to look in Chen Mu's direction, she blinked slyly, and then spoke.

"Are you going to take them to the capital? Or let them stay in the town's factory? ”

"When I first heard that this young man was able to study textile equipment, I intended to keep him in the factory in this town."

"But after thinking about it carefully, I decided to bring him back to the capital, and I also want to set up a government office in the capital to collect these people who like to study gadgets."

"Let them study these interesting things, and then the textile equipment will be manufactured, and the speed of cloth production among the people will increase a lot."

"Although after this textile equipment is popularized to the people, the status of those craftsmen will be replaced."

"But they can also spare time and energy to do something else."

When that happens, you can ask the training office to arrange a new course.

Let those folk craftsmen settle in the training government to learn how to operate textile equipment.

When they are successful in their studies, they can become the first textile workers.

Chen Mu thought about it, and a smile appeared on his face.

Although the sketches of the textile equipment have been studied, Chen Mu knows that it is not an overnight thing to design the details.

The sketch he produced looked perfect at first glance.

But if the details are not taken care of, the usability of the textile machine will be limited.

It is still necessary to make the perfect textile instrument possible.

Chen Mu is not in a hurry, he is ready to consider promoting this textile equipment to the people after the development of agriculture.

And before that, he could also let the young man turn his attention to the study of agricultural tools after he had studied the textile equipment.

In this way, both agriculture and handicrafts can be developed, going hand in hand.

After the trade routes were paved, agricultural products and handicraft products could circulate freely within the territory of Great Xia.

It can even be trafficked to other countries.

As soon as he thought of this, Chen Mu felt excited.

He clenched his fists and looked up in Meng Qing's direction.

He only briefly described his plans and intentions.

Meng Qing was stunned.

What?

And the cloth and porcelain, and even the crops produced by the farmers, are they going to sell to other countries?

Do they have so much food and energy to spare?

Meng Qing frowned, and remembered Chen Mu's arrangement again.

If the crops are growing well and the farmers can have a bumper harvest every year, then they may indeed be able to achieve what Chen Mu expects.

Now Chen Mu has come up with a way to curb the locust plague.

Water conservancy projects are also being built in various places.

It won't be long before the farmers' crops will be better every year, and when that time comes......

Meng Qing's eyes lit up.

She looked up in the direction of Chen Mu and said with heartfelt emotion.

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you are really an amazing big man."

"I didn't expect your arrangements to be so careful and interlocking."

"If, as you say, the farmers' harvest is good, then the textile equipment that you and the young man surnamed Li said can also be put into private use."

"In this way, the farmers have more surplus silver and surplus grain in their hands, and everyone's life is getting better and better."

Hearing Meng Qing say this, Chen Mu also smiled and nodded in response.

Yes, all the decrees he has issued so far are interlocking and step-by-step.

As long as it develops step by step according to his current arrangement.

In a few years, the lives of the people in their country will get better and better, and he can continue to expand his territory!

Chen Mu smiled with satisfaction and looked up in Meng Qing's direction.

Meng Qing's eyes were also lit up by the blueprint described by Chen Mu.

Her eyes were full of anticipation as if she had thought of some beautiful scene.

Seeing this, Chen Mu raised his hand and held Meng Qing's hand.

Meng Qing held Chen Mu's hand with her backhand, smiled, remembered something again, and said.

"By the way, Your Royal Highness the Prince, didn't you say that you were going to go to the factory this afternoon?"

"Those merchants have already settled in the factory, you go to the factory to have a look, and by the way, say hello to the local government."

"Until now, the people in the local yamen didn't know that you were coming, so you said hello to them in advance."

"In this way, you can also avoid being threatened and persecuted by merchants when dealing with them."

Although some of the merchants in this town are extremely savvy.

In advance, he had a good relationship with the masters and students who trained the government office, dredged the road of the yamen, and even got the opportunity to settle in the factory.

But that doesn't mean that all the merchants in this town are so savvy and kind.

There are still some merchants in this town who are secretly trying to find out the news.

Even overthrew the so-called factories and training offices.

When Chen Mu heard Meng Qing say this, he frowned, nodded and responded.

Just a few days ago, he had not planned to tell the local magistrate about his arrival in this town.

But after thinking about it for a while, he watched the merchant surnamed Xu find trouble with Li Mao.

Chen Mu secretly thought to himself, if those merchants noticed his movements and didn't know his identity, most of them would indeed trouble him.

He had other plans, and he wanted to finish the food he needed to take care of in this town as soon as possible.

Therefore, after thinking about it for a while, he decided to do what Meng Qing said.

The two sat in the guest room for a while, and before the sun sank, they got up and left the inn and walked in the direction of the county government.

An adult who oversaw the government had already been sent to this county town to keep an eye on the establishment of the factory and the movements of those merchants in advance.

After Chen Mu arrived at the mansion, he did not rush to the door, but let his guards come to the door to deliver a jade plaque.

There was only one word engraved on the jade plaque.

All the adults who oversaw the palace knew the jade tablet, and they knew the identity of the person who held it.
