The wealthy merchants greedily looked at the rapidly moving spinning machine in front of them, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of strands of silk thread had turned into two feet of silk!

Xue Yuanwai exclaimed, but because of the loud noise, no one could hear what he said! Mu Shiren finally understood how ignorant he was before, if he really fought with King Wu according to the previous arrangement, no amount of money would be enough to compensate! He also understands why Huahou Wei dares to push the price so low! If he has such a machine, hehe, where is there anyone else's way to live?

Reluctantly leaving the weaving workshop, everyone's hearts are heavy. What is King Wu going to do? Swallow us all? Or a shareholding? No matter what the situation is, it's all people who are swordsmen and I am fish and meat, and I can't resist at all! Could it be that the silk that has been in business all my life is to make wedding dresses for others?

As soon as he entered the gate of Yujin Hall, Mu Shiren was the first to rush in, and looked at Hua Houwei, who was drinking tea comfortably, and directly popped out two words: "Seventy!" ”

Hua Houwei was stunned: "What do you mean?" ”

"His Royal Highness King Wu, you account for seventy percent of my Mu Shiren's company! As long as you provide that spinning machine! ”

Depend on! Xue Yuan was furious! Made, you keep saying that King Wu won't give him a way to live, and he wants to fight with King Wu, but you didn't say it? Now the first one to betray everyone is actually you!

Hua Houwei laughed and stood up: "Why? ”

"Uh, five out of seven! Couldn't have been more! There are other people's shares. His Royal Highness King Wu, just have pity on me! Mu Shiren knelt down in front of Hua Houwei and cried bitterly!

Hua Houwei shook his head, walked to Mu Shiren's side, and gently pulled: "Master doesn't want your shares!" ”

"Ahh His Royal Highness King Wu, please give me a way to live! Mu Shiren couldn't get up from death, and his eyes were full of deep despair!

"Alas, you are too clever to be too clever! Get up! Who said I had to devour you? Hua Houwei shook his head, angry and funny, his eyes looked around at more than a dozen wealthy businessmen who were like mourning and examining!

Mu Shiren raised his head blankly: "Your Highness, don't you want to make money?" ”

"Nonsense! Who sees the silver and is not kissed? Mu Shiren? You get up. Let me tell you, what I really intend to do is the textile machinery business! That Hengyuanxiang is just a brick that throws bricks and attracts jade! ”

Mu Shiren got up and shouted in surprise: "His Royal Highness King Wu!" Seriously? ”

Huahou Wei kicked Mu Shiren's ass angrily: "Nonsense! Lao Tzu is also the king of Wu! Sit down, pour the tea again, let's talk slowly! ”

Mu Shiren was kicked, but instead of being annoyed, he walked back to his seat with a smile. Xue Yuanwai glared at him viciously, and he didn't react at all! What do you want to react to? Seeing that the sky is falling, and in the blink of an eye, he is going to make a fortune, what is there to worry about?

Hua Houwei beckoned and called Huang Xingchi: "Did you see it?" Contact him about these things in the future! I still have something to do, so I'll just say a few words! First, I am in charge of the Textile Association! Whoever is disobedient is not qualified to buy a textile machine! Second, ten spinning machines per family, and the rest of the high bidders will get! What do you mean? ”

So what else is there to say? Isn't it just obedient? No problem! As long as you can make money, it's nothing to help you kill people and set fires! Looking at the ugly performance of a group of wealthy businessmen, Hua Houwei smiled slightly, arched his hand and said, "Okay! Then I'll go first! Discuss the rest with him! Wan Niang, go! ”

Qin Hong was waiting for Hua Hou Wei in the room on the side, and as soon as Hua Hou Wei entered the door, Qin Hong and Xu Guan stood up to greet him.

"Your Highness, breathtaking! Lao Qin, I took it! Five-body throw! ”

"Your Highness, why don't you take the opportunity to take more shares?" Xu Guan was puzzled by Hua Houwei's intentions and asked directly.

"Sit, sit first! This is simple, Jiangnan is too big, I can't swallow it! Besides, these merchants are not useless, and I still need them. Lao Xu, I'm not here to make money, I want to cultivate some businessmen who do business to help Daming develop industry faster and better! Lao Xu, you are the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, if you have time to come to my Wu Wangfu to have a look, you will understand why I am in a hurry to develop industry! ”

Qin Hong doesn't understand these things, and he doesn't want to understand them, but he has to show a sense of existence, right? "Your Highness, what are you going to do next?"

"Build roads! If you want to get rich, build roads first! Lao Qin, have you ever heard of cement? ”

Qin Hong shook his head: "I haven't heard of it." Your Highness, what does this have to do with building roads? ”

"Jiangnan Water Town, beauty is beautiful, this road is terrible! Lao Qin, it's time to collect taxes soon, and there are not a few people who die every year because of missing their families, right? ”

Qin Hong was stunned, and then smiled bitterly: "Your Highness, do you know this?" Alas, who says it's not? Now the people are avoiding escorting tax grain! ”

"Well, so it's time to build the road. Lao Qin, come and see, I plan to initially build ten cement plants, one each in Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Guangxi, Sichuan, Fujian, Guangdong, and Yunnan, two in Huguang, and one in Yingtianfu. In this way, if we each exert our strength, the entire Jiangnan will be connected, Lao Qin, the more you have the taste of this household book! ”

Xu Guan didn't listen to the conversation between Hua Houwei and Qin Hong, and kept thinking hard. Suddenly asked Hua Houwei in surprise: "Is it the kind of cement that dries into powder, wets into mud, and then dries into stone?" ”

"Yo! Lao Xu, I have to re-evaluate you. Back then, cement was not promoted, do you still know? ”

Xu Guan smiled: "Your Highness, in his position, he is in power, although we will inevitably make a few handfuls, but we have to do our own work well, or we will not damage Yin Virtue!" ”

Hua Houwei nodded slightly, admiring Xu Guan, a self-proclaimed corrupt official, even more! Greedy, moderation and bottom line, and professional ethics, this is a rare official! "Oh, Lao Xu, let's discuss the industrial layout of Jiangnan later. Lao Qin, go back and prepare, contact the political envoys of Jiangnan, I want to open a Jiangnan Shitong company, the company's business covers metallurgy, chemical industry, machinery manufacturing, mining and other industries! The total share capital is tentatively set at 5 million taels, and I will first invest 500,000 yuan in cash, and all the technology is equivalent to 40% of the shares. What do you see? ”

Qin Hong was stunned, thought about it carefully, and asked tentatively, "Your Highness, is it too fast?" Is it better to let the provincial political envoys see the benefits first, and then open a company? ”

Hua Houwei slapped his forehead: "That's right!" Blame me, blame me, I'm really a little impatient! Lao Qin, that's right! We're a family now, so let's talk about it. Well, without seeing the actual benefits, those people will not move! That's it, let's open a smaller company first and catch the textile industry in Jiangnan! ”

Qin Hong laughed, this King Wu is still quite easy to deal with, the textile industry? This can be there! "Your Highness, how does that work?"

"Hehe, a monopoly is not good for Daming, I think, or Hengyuanxiang takes the lead, and it is better to control the situation of the association! If you have a fortune, everyone will make it! ”
