The first year of Yuanzhen is a festive year, after the spring and summer harvest, Luoyang City will be full of happy events, the single young people in the court, the middle-aged married one after another, the end of the day of paying the single tax to the imperial court.

At the same time, it was also a year of rapid recovery of national strength, and in later generations, it was listed as the most critical year in the decade of take-off.

Although there were small droughts and small floods in some areas, the drought and flood conditions were quickly alleviated because of the construction of water conservancy projects in the past two years and the hard work of the peasants.

After April, the wheat in the south of the Yangtze River and the Central Plains turned yellow one after another, and the heavy ears of wheat made people can't help but be excited.

The summer harvest and summer sowing lasted a month and a half, and by early June, the farming season was almost over across the country.

But most farmers can't afford to be idle, because the soybeans and rice they grow still need weeding, catching insects, and fertilizing, but they are much more idle and can squeeze out a lot of labor.

At this time, county governments and schools across the country jointly went to the countryside to promote new textile machines and looms, and at the same time, a new department was opened in each state and county, the Weaving Bureau.

The craftsmen sent from Luoyang went to various places to serve as weaving bureaus or chief technical guides, and in addition to being responsible for promoting new looms, they also had to open large weaving workshops, build large textile machines and looms, and weave fabrics for the imperial court.

In addition to managing the world's textiles, the responsibility of the Weaving Bureau is to balance the prices of raw materials such as cotton and linen, raw silk, etc., to balance the proportion of arable land and mulberry and hemp cotton cultivation, and to ensure the interests of mulberry farmers, hemp farmers and cotton farmers.

Taking advantage of the slack time, there is a large number of laborers, and the country's vigorous "warm clothes" action is launched, Zhao Hanzhang said at the court meeting: "My request is very simple, within five years, under my rule, there will be no more people who are not clothed and die of cold. ”

It sounds simple, but all the senses know how hard it is.

If you don't suffer from the cold, you won't be hungry, and you won't suffer from hunger and cold, even if you don't have the rule of Wenjing, it's difficult to do.

But all the officials responded loudly and did it with high morale.

If the ancestors could not do it, their king may not be able to do it.

Who would have thought that textile and looms would be ten to fifteen times more efficient?

The efficiency of large-scale looms is amazing, although there is currently only one weaving workshop in a state, but the output calculated by Fu Shangshu let them know that it will not be a luxury to let every Chinese person be warmed in five years.

Moreover, this is not counting the production of the private sector.

You know, their country is a small-scale peasant economy, and more cloth resources are actually in the private sector.

Led by the Ministry of Household and the Ministry of Industry, with the assistance of the local yamen, the Weaving Bureau weaved a large number of textile machines and looms for sale and lease.

Yes, in addition to buying, ordinary people can also rent a spinning machine or loom to go back.

Because of the efficiency of textile machines and looms, many families will buy them jointly, or even use the village as the purchase unit.

A piece of land was set aside from the village to build a textile house, and the looms and spinning machines purchased were placed in the textile house, and villagers in need could apply for them and queue up to use them.

There are also families as units.

In the Zhao clan in Xiping, Zhao Ming wrote back and ordered people to build a textile house on the east and west sides of the village, in which five textile machines and looms were placed for the poor families in the clan.

Those who have money in the family will not squeeze these two textile houses with others, they will directly buy them with a big wave.

When Zhao Hu knew about this, he immediately asked the steward to go to the Beijing Weaving Bureau to order a hundred textile machines and a hundred looms.

The Weaving Bureau did not come out without a little preparation, their products were researched in the first month, confirmed by the test in the first month, and began production in February.

At the end of February, the Mo family suddenly appeared in the capital, under the protection of Yuan Li into the palace face saint, in March, a large number of Mo family children to vote, that month, the craftsmen of the Gewu Division began to be ordered to go to the states and counties, presiding over the production of textile machines.

By June now, a large number of spinning machines and looms have been accumulated in three months.

The Beijing Weaving Bureau has accumulated the most, but they also receive the most orders.

In addition to the orders from Sizhou, there are also a large number of orders from Yuzhou and Shudi.

As soon as he received Zhao Hu's order, Zhang Weaving of the Beijing Weaving Bureau had a headache, and hesitated for a while to refuse Zhao Hu.

If Zhao Hu is really given 100 units each, the current inventory in the warehouse will be cleared by one-third, but His Majesty said that the spinning machines and looms must come to the people first, and then the merchants.

After Zhang Weaving rejected Zhao Hu's stewardship, he immediately went to Fu Tinghan in the Gewu Division and reported the matter when he walked out of the laboratory sweating.

Fu Tinghan thought for a while and said: "A new regulation is issued, within two years, a unit shall purchase no more than 20 textile machines from the Weaving Bureau at one time, and the application time must be more than six months apart. ”

Zhang Weaving was dumbfounded, he didn't expect there to be such a regulation.

Such a non-legal provision, as a Shangshu order of Fu Tinghan can be directly stipulated, no longer need to go through the Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province, Zhang Weaving immediately responded, posted this provision, and telegraphed to the weaving bureaus across the country, at the same time to hold this provision.

Zhao Hu, who had already asked someone to build a cloth village, was so angry when he found out, "This rule is specifically for me?" Who made the rules? ”

Wuyin: "It's Fu Langjun." ”

Zhao Hu was silent.

Wuyin said worriedly: "Lord Lang, are we still going to buy it?" Or do you want people to form other business houses to queue up to buy? ”

Zhao Hu said angrily: "Now everything needs household registration and road guidance, and the commercial bank also needs to be frugal, because of the cancellation of the death deed, the households of the yamen have been expanded, and the funds and employee origins under each commercial bank are clearly remembered, do you think you can hide it?" ”

What's more, it was his own grandson who was the county magistrate in Luoyang, and he couldn't pit anyone's own grandson.

He played this kind of trick in the Beijing Weaving Bureau with his front foot, and he could call Yu Shi to stab him in front of the palace with his back foot, he may not be able to do anything, but Zhao Zheng will definitely be questioned for the crime of favoritism.

Although Zhao Zheng may not know at all.

In addition to him, Zhao Cheng will also be charged with lax governance.

Zhao Hu can still distinguish between the career of his children and grandchildren and his own money, and he is not short of money.

So although he was annoyed, Zhao Hu still waved his hand and said, "Come according to the regulations." ”

Five silver took the order and left.

But the good money is in front of him but he can't make it, and Zhao Hu is still very unhappy.

endured it for a day, but the next day he still couldn't help but go into the palace to find Zhao Hanzhang for dinner, of course, not empty-handed, he brought a generous gift.

Zhao Hanzhang's identity is different, and Zhao Hu has also become generous.

As soon as Fu Tinghan returned to the palace, he heard that Zhao Hu was coming and wanted to have dinner with them, so he remembered the new rules and said to Zhao Hanzhang: "He must have come to go through the back door." ”

Zhao Hanzhang said with a smile: "The seventh uncle is confused, and he hasn't made any money if he wants to. ”

Fu Tinghan was confused, Zhao Hanzhang pulled him to have dinner with Zhao Hu, and after listening to Zhao Hu, he said: "Seventh Uncle Ancestor, this is not as good as your own, the output of the Weaving Bureau can't keep up with it now, why don't you make your own spinning machines and looms?" ”

Zhao Hu: "Your Majesty is joking, the new textile machine and the new loom are new products from Gewusi, and I don't have any drawings......

Zhao Hu paused when he said this, looked at Zhao Hanzhang, and saw that she had a faint smile on her face, and couldn't help but widen his eyes.
