Meng Qing raised her head and looked around, with a curious look on her face, this mansion was indeed extremely magnificent.

After stepping into this palace, there is a rather large hall not far ahead.

There were still some voices coming from the hall, Meng Qing glanced in the direction of the hall with some curiosity, looked left and right, and then whispered.

"This factory office looks different from ordinary government offices, and the house in front of it is not small."

"In addition to the hall in front, there are no side halls on the left and right sides of this courtyard, and no grass and trees have been planted, rockeries have been set up, and they are empty."

When Chen Mu heard Meng Qing say this, he responded to the peace, the reason why he didn't let people plant plants and trees in the middle of this courtyard and build a rockery was because this factory needed to transport equipment, cloth, and other raw materials from time to time.

If there is too much landscaping, it will only hinder the movement of workers and will not be conducive to storing goods.

Chen Mu's plan was very simple, but the officials in the government and the merchants who came and went in the government did not understand Chen Mu's plan.

When they first entered the factory, they thought it was a little too empty.

It was only because the Ministry of Industry had no money, so when the factory was built, it was a little sloppy, but craftsmen and merchants gradually settled in the factory.

After the people brought the cloth and the silk needed to make the fabric, as well as other raw materials into the factory, they were also vaguely aware of it.

The reason why there are no rockeries and other landscape vegetation in this courtyard is mostly to store materials and woven cloth.

It was only then that the merchants and craftsmen in the factory were moved by the fact that His Royal Highness the Prince, who had issued a decree and established the factory government, was really far-sighted and resourceful.

Chen Mu and Meng Qing were led by Lord He into the deepest part of the factory.

After taking them around a few buildings, they finally heard a loud noise coming from the courtyard in front of them.

Master He tilted his head and listened carefully, and then immediately turned his head to Chen Mu and said.

"It's the merchants you sent to settle in this factory, they are gathered in the courtyard in front of them, and I guess they are discussing the use of silk textile fabrics in their hands."

"Because everyone brings the craftsmen in their own businesses, as well as the silk and other materials stored in their own businesses, into the factory, and then the officials mobilize and distribute them."

"So in recent times, they have often quarreled because of the arrangement of the textile craftsman."

When Chen Mu heard Master He say this, he was stunned for a moment, and then immediately came back to his senses.

He nodded and agreed, this is normal, if there is no quarrel in the process of resource mobilization and distribution, it means that these people do not care about resource allocation, and do not care about the final profit.

That's not a good thing for the factory government.

Chen Mu glanced in the direction of the courtyard, and under the guidance of Master He, he took the initiative to step into the courtyard.

A few people standing in the courtyard were discussing matters related to the distribution of craftsmen and materials with white faces.

Suddenly, he saw several figures approaching behind him, and those people immediately stopped talking and turned their heads to look in the direction of the comer.

I saw that the person who came was Lord He, and there was a pair of strange men and women standing next to Lord He, and those people looked at each other.

One of them barely suppressed his anger, stepped forward, arched his hand at Lord He, and then said.

"It turned out to be Lord He, why didn't you tell us in advance when you came?"

"It's just a walk around the factory, and I didn't think I had to disturb a few people, so I didn't send someone to say hello."

"I'm seeing a few people here discussing important things related to the factory, is there something that makes them embarrassed?"

Lord He was worried about Chen Mulai's factory in order to find out the situation related to the operation of the factory.

So I deliberately asked in front of a few merchants, hoping that a few merchants would understand the many problems faced in the factory.

In this way, it is also more convenient for Chen Mu to know the situation of this factory.

And those merchants looked at each other after hearing Lord He say this.

They didn't hold back, and when they saw that Lord He had already asked like this, someone immediately stepped forward and said.

"It's true that there is something that makes us embarrassed, but then again, it is not a big deal, and it has something to do with the arrangement of the craftsmen of the textile fabric."

"I brought five craftsmen from the shop, and Boss Liu's shop brought four craftsmen, I thought that I had a lot of craftsmen, but we didn't bring so many materials, so I wanted to assign one of the craftsmen to Boss Liu's mansion."

"But Boss Liu was not happy, and said that I wanted to share the profits in his hands, and I was just kindly helping, although I asked my craftsman to go to him to help work, he did have to pay the wages."

"But the reason why I am like this is not because I see that he has too much material, and the workers are too busy, and they are about to be too busy, so I want to help."

"How could I have expected that he would speculate about me like this, which is really outrageous."

Seeing that someone asked the merchant to vomit bitterness, Chen Mu watched coldly.

Upon closer inspection, he realized that it was only a few small things that were difficult for these merchants.

However, although they are all small and unimportant things, after all, they involve the distribution of benefits and the allocation of resources.

If you don't handle it well, it's really easy for merchants to hold grudges against each other.

As a result, it is easy to cause problems in the internal operation of the plant.

Chen Mu thought about it and nodded secretly.

Thinking that these merchants should not be allowed to enter the factory with their own resources, but that the government should come forward to buy the resources in the hands of those merchants, and then deploy them uniformly.

In this way, problems and estrangements between merchants can also be prevented, which can affect the operation of the plant.

Thinking about it like this, Chen Mu nodded secretly, made up his mind, and immediately sent a letter after going back, asking people to draft a decree, promulgate the relevant decree, and at the same time allocate a batch of silver.

Fortunately, thanks to the success of the locust plague, the farmers' income has increased and their tax payments have increased a lot.

The imperial court can allocate a lot of silver, and Chen Mu will not worry about this bit of silver.

While Chen Mu was pondering, the merchants were talking about the problems they had encountered in the recent period one by one.

Chen Mu listened carefully and made sure that his inference was correct.

Most of it has to do with resource allocation.

Chen Mu shook his head a little helplessly and sighed.

If we had come to the factory earlier and discovered these problems earlier, these merchants would not have been noisy like this.

But then again, it's not too late to know.

While Chen Mu was thinking about it, Lord Nahe also reassured the adults.

Chen Mu didn't speak, Lord He looked at Chen Mu and lowered his head in contemplation, he also knew that Chen Mu was mostly thinking about solving the problems he found now.
