Reconciled?

When Zhang Tianyou heard this, a nameless fire suddenly rose in his heart.

If Lao Tzu accepts his fate, Lao Tzu should still be the prince!

Why did Lao Tzu accept his fate, he Zhu Chongba is just a flower who wants to eat, no more noble than a businessman!

Zhang Tianyou has always been unwilling and full of resentment in his heart. But he also knows that the people in front of him are not people who can help him achieve great things, and they only deserve to be used by themselves.

Therefore, he suppressed the anger in his heart and asked calmly.

"And what are you going to do?"

"Do you want to snatch someone from Zhu Yunxi at a high price?"

Everyone fell silent again when they heard Zhang Tianyou's words, they were absolutely unwilling to spend high prices, once they fell into the quagmire of raising each other's prices, how much less money would they have to make every year?

But it seems that you can't recruit people without raising the price right now, right?

"Dare to ask Zhang Gongzi, is there a better way?"

Zhang Tianyou sneered.

"You are also people who have been dealing with textile workshops for many years, and I ask you a word. How much money and how much time did you spend on building a textile workshop and looms?"

When they heard this, they woke up from a dream.

You don't have money to run a textile workshop, first you have to have enough looms.

However, the structure of the loom is complex, and each one takes at least two months to make and debug.

And this thing is often broken and needs to be maintained by someone often......

Therefore, small households can not afford to buy looms, and those who can buy looms in Suzhou, and even Daming, which are already well-off.

That's why so many weavers prefer to weave for the workshop rather than at home.

Because they don't have the means of production like looms.

"What does Young Master Zhang mean is that the imperial grandson doesn't have enough looms?"

Zhang Tianyou glared at everyone unhappily when he heard this.

"What do you think?"

"The first batch of workers recruited by Zhu Yunxi are still working in the Suzhou Weaving Bureau."

"Now these two groups of people, there is a high probability that it will be like this."

"Once the imperial grandson can't afford to support them, Suzhou City will definitely riot, and if you want to hire people at that time, not only do you not have to spend more money, but you can take the opportunity to lower the price......

When everyone heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up.

"Tall!"

"Young Master Zhang's clever calculation, we really admire it!"

"I just don't know how long the imperial grandson can delay?"

"It is said that the emperor's grandson is not bad for money, and many of the properties under his hands are making money every day......

"If it takes us a year and a half, then we will delay the construction period!"

This is also what Zhang Tianyou is worried about, that is, he doesn't know how much Zhu Yunxi can carry it and how long he can carry it.

But he felt that Zhu Yunxi couldn't carry it for too long, because he was not a fool and had no reason to take money to support people for nothing.

"It's up to you to choose."

"If you raise the price to recruit people now, it will just solve the trouble for Zhu Yunxi and the imperial court, but it will be difficult for you to lower the price in the future."

"If you carry it, let Zhu Yunxi know the difficulties and retreat, knowing that the textile industry is not something he can get involved in, then Suzhou will still be your world in the future!"

"This ......"

Hearing this, everyone hesitated again, and after a long while, Sun Kaishan said hesitantly.

"Why don't we observe for a month?"

Everyone nodded when they heard this.

"Brother Sun is right, let's stabilize for a month first, and see what the imperial grandson makes on his side, and we're thinking about how to deal with it......

After that day, the entire city of Suzhou was quiet for a moment, and no one gathered in the prefect's yamen to make trouble.

Occasionally, a few scoundrels wanted to stir up trouble, but they were also arrested on the spot by the prefect's officials and thrown into a prison and locked up.

But everyone knows that this is nothing more than the calm before the storm.

Once the day of payment comes and the emperor can't pay the money, then the tranquility in front of him will turn into a storm and sweep the entire city of Suzhou.

However, can the imperial grandson send out this money?

A month or two months, a year or two years?

90,000 looms, even if all the craftsmen in the capital work together, it won't be completed in two or three months, right?

And then the imperial grandson raised these workers for nothing?

When a group of businessmen were waiting for a long time to watch the excitement, dozens of cargo ships suddenly ushered in Suzhou wharf.

On each cargo ship, there were several brocade guards dressed in flying fish suits, and the cargo on this ship was extraordinary.

Zhang Qinglai, the prefect of Suzhou, came to the dock early in the morning with hundreds of servants, and personally waited here to prepare for the first batch of looms sent by the emperor's grandson.

However, when the cargo ship arrived at the port, Zhang Qinglai saw the bundled wooden strips and other bits and pieces of wood, and the joy on his face instantly dissipated.

He grabbed the leading Jinyi guard and questioned him.

"Xu Qianhu, what about the loom you said was good, why did you send a pile of rotten wood?"

"Master Zhang, this is the loom!"

"This is a loom?"

Zhang Qinglai looked at the broken wood on the ship again, and couldn't connect these things with the loom.

"No, how do you weave this thing?"

Xu Liuzi shook his head when he heard this.

"We don't understand this, we're just responsible for escorting the goods, and the specific assembly has to be carried out by the craftsmen on the ship!"

"Assemble?"

"yes!"

"Or else?"

"Although the cargo ship is big, it can't fit a few looms, how can you transport them without dismantling them?"

Zhang Qinglai showed a sudden realization expression when he heard this.

"I see!"

"The emperor's grandson is wise, but the officials are stupid."

"Come on, come on, hurry up and move the goods to the workshop, assemble a few first, and take a look!"

Under Zhang Qinglai's urging, the goods on a ship were quickly unloaded and successfully transported to the Suzhou textile workshop by horse-drawn carriage.

Zhang Qinglai kept staring at the craftsman assembly, for fear of missing every detail. The weavers who had been raised by Zhu Yunxi for a period of time also came over and pointed at the parts on the ground.

"This loom looks a little weird, it doesn't seem to be the same as what we're used to......

"yes, I see a lot of iron, it should be stronger than the one we used before."

Amid the whispers of the crowd, the craftsman quickly assembled a loom and came out.

Zhang Qing looked at the loom in front of him and called a skilled weaver to demonstrate on the spot.

Chen Jiu sat beside the loom, stepping on the pedals of the loom, creaking and weaving silk.

After weaving for a while, Chen Jiu gave a thumbs up to the craftsmen on the side.

"This master, this loom is amazing, smoother than all the looms we have used in the past, and it saves effort, and what is even more rare is that the warp and weft are distinct, the width is consistent, and there is no mistake!"

"Dare to ask the master, you are an old craftsman who makes looms, right?"

The craftsman laughed when he heard this.

"What!"

"We've never cleaned this thing, it's just according to the drawings given by the imperial grandson, and the lathes are taken out one by one."

"To put it mildly, we only learned how to assemble it from someone for a few days before we came, otherwise we wouldn't even be able to assemble, hahaha!"

"Huh?"

This time it was Chen Jiu's turn and the others to be surprised, and even Zhang Qinglai, who was watching the excitement on the sidelines, was full of surprise.

He is the prefect of Suzhou, and he must understand the pillar industries of Suzhou.

Now he was amazed to hear the craftsman say that he did not know anything about looms, but he was able to assemble a loom in a few moments.

"I ask you a question, how much can this loom fit in a day?"

"One person can load ten units a day, and there are a total of three hundred craftsmen on board this time

people, you can install 3,000 units a day."

"......"

Zhang Qinglai was taken aback when he heard this, and at the same time, he also understood why the imperial grandson had the confidence to recruit so many people.

3,000 units a day, 30,000 units in 10 days, and 90,000 units in 30 days......

There may not be 100,000 looms in the entire city of Suzhou, and the imperial grandson has directly monopolized the silk textile industry in Suzhou City by himself!

It is foreseeable that in the future, the 100,000 looms in Suzhou City will be rattled, all of which will be government-run workshops, and there will be no personal workshops!

"Emperor Sun Shengming!"

Zhang Qinglai held back for a long time, but only held back such a sentence.

The craftsman on the side laughed when he heard this.

"This is natural, the imperial grandson is an immortal in the sky, even Zhang Zhenren does not dare to call himself master in front of our imperial grandson!"

Zhang Qinglai is a serious Confucian apprentice, believing in the strange power of the child.

Therefore, he did not believe a word about the words of the craftsmen and gods.

However, he was still satisfied with the craftsmanship of the craftsmen, and immediately announced that the prefect's yamen would pay for the craftsmen who assembled the looms to buy a few big fat pigs and slaughter them for meat.

This move was immediately unanimously thanked by the craftsmen.

The next day, the three thousand looms were started at the same time, and the creaking of weaving could be heard for miles.

This time, the businessmen who were waiting to see the joke couldn't sit still, and ran to the textile workshop to check it out.

Normally, Zhang Qinglai didn't want them to visit, but the imperial grandson explained in the letter that he didn't let him stop the people who came to see the excitement, so he turned a blind eye.

A group of merchants, dressed in the clothes of ordinary people, mixed in the weaving procession into the workshop, and after seeing a water of hardwood looms, everyone fell into a mess.

"You look at the looms, and every one of them is exactly the same, and even all the parts are the same size......

As soon as Sun Kaishan finished saying this, the old craftsman on the side replied with a smile.

"This guy has good eyesight!"

"Our imperial grandson said that only standardization can achieve industrialization!"

Hearing this, Sun Kaishan hurriedly asked.

"What is industrialization?"

This can make the old craftsman completely blind, he is just parroting, how do you know what industrialization is?

"That's it...... You can have whatever you want......

"But this standardization is a good thing, all our parts are the same size, uniform workmanship, as long as there is a problem with one loom, you can take out the standard parts to replace, which greatly saves time......

This Sun Kaishan understood, which was why he was most shocked.

In the past, looms were built by craftsmen with experience, and there was no uniform size at all, so it can be said that each loom has a different size.

Therefore, when you want to repair it, you can only make parts temporarily according to the different looms.

However, the looms on the emperor's grandson's side are so beautiful, all the looms are the same size, and the parts are exactly the same, which saves the boss trouble.

Now he was only curious about one thing, and that was how the imperial grandson could make so many looms and guarantee that they were exactly the same.

"Dare to ask this old man, can you tell me how this loom was made, and why it can be so consistent......

"The lathe!"

"As long as you set a fixed size, the lathe will be able to move out, and all the parts will be exactly the same!"

"What is a lathe?"

"Lathe ......"

The old craftsman suddenly found that the things he was used to in the workshops in the capital were really difficult to explain to others outside.

"It's a special tool, something that specializes in producing all kinds of parts!"

"This ......"

Sun Kaishan looked confused with a capital letter, and he didn't understand what the old craftsman was talking about at all.

But the old craftsman was in no mood to talk to him, so he left a sentence and walked away.

"Don't ask, you

Just know that such a loom can produce thousands of pieces a day in our workshops in the capital, and Suzhou City can be filled in less than ten days and a half months!"

Sun Kaishan and the workshop owners behind him were not calm when they heard this.

If it is really as the old craftsman said, then they can only drink the northwest wind in the future!

"Dare to ask my brother, is your workshop in the capital really so capable?"

The old craftsman raised his head triumphantly.

"That's nature!"

"Not to mention the production of looms, it is to produce armor and chariots for the imperial court, and we are no problem!"

"This ......"

Sun Kaishan fell silent again, and at the same time became more curious about the workshop in the capital.

What kind of workshop is it that can produce looms, and can produce chariots and so on?

However, there is one more important thing at the moment, that is, their bet with the imperial grandson failed.

Although the two sides have never fought each other, or even met, the two sides have been fighting in secret.

The owner of the Suzhou workshop was unwilling to let the imperial grandson interfere in the textile industry and was unwilling to give up the interests in his hands, so he cooperated with Zhang Tianyou to oppose the imperial grandson.

If there is no such stake, Zhang Tianyou said that they will not be bothered.

However, the harsh reality tells them that they are about to lose the money they need to make a living.

The number of looms they are most proud of is vulnerable in front of the imperial grandson!

After visiting the textile workshops of the government, everyone came out of the workshops one by one dejectedly.

"Guys, what are we going to do now?"

"What else can I do, I just ask the imperial grandson not to do too much, so as to leave us a way to live!"

"Survival?"

Sun Kaishan sneered and looked at the person who spoke.

"The imperial grandson is a divine dragon in the sky, how can he look down on a group of businessmen like you and me?"

"People didn't let the government rectify us at the beginning, and they have already given us enough face!"

"Now that the emperor's grandson's workshop is open, let's just wait for the closing......

After Sun Kaishan said this, he returned home dejected, and saw that the workshop was empty, and only a few old weavers were still weaving crunching, and he felt aggrieved.

Why is this, how can a good business become like this!

The same question echoed in Zhang Tianyou's mind.

In the afternoon of the same day, he was also escorted by his brother-in-law and secretly went to the government-run workshop to take a look.

Seeing the new textile machine again, Zhang Tianyou was also surprised.

He always thought that Zhu Yunxi was about to be cornered under his persecution.

It wasn't until this moment that he realized that people hadn't looked at him at all!

All the means he has come up with are as naïve as children's tricks in front of others.

Grab raw silk with others, but everyone knows that the entire Ming Dynasty is someone else's, and people can completely give up the raw silk in Suzhou and go to other places to collect it.

dismissed the weaver to force Zhu Yunxi to let go, but he didn't know that this move was in Zhu Yunxi's arms, he was worried about how to compete with the people, Suzhou personal workshop dismissed the weaver, and he opened the door as much as he wanted......

Zhang Tianyou thought that Zhu Yunxi would not be able to get so many looms, but he didn't expect that people could not only get it, but also do it so well, far exceeding the level of other workshops in Suzhou......

The more Zhang Tianyou thought about it, the more angry he became, and finally he was so angry that he spit out a mouthful of blood.

Both Shengyu and He Shengliang!

Zhu Yunxi, who was in the capital, didn't know that Zhang Tianyou had so many scenes, and at this time he was being criticized by hundreds of officials and uncles Wang.

"Your Royal Highness, it's true that you opened a workshop in Suzhou and caused a riot among the people, right?"

"It's true!"

"It's true that you compete with the people for profit and cause a depression in Suzhou, right?"

Zhu Yunxi shook his head and said.

"Not really!"

"If Lone wanted to compete with the people for profit, he would have already beaten that group of small workshops

If they don't go on, why should they make a rebellion?"

Zhang Heng, the imperial historian of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, said angrily when he heard this.

"The original manufacturing bureau was only 3,000 weavers, but when His Highness arrived in Suzhou, it increased to 30,000, and he even said that he was not competing with the people for profit?"

"Now under the pressure of public opinion, recruiting another 60,000 weavers is actually just a delaying tactic for His Highness, right?"

"Why did Lone delay the army?"

"If Gu hadn't taken care of the small workshop in Suzhou, Gu would have spent a lot of money to recruit weavers, how could they have been allowed to jump to this day?"

Zhang Heng became even more annoyed when he heard this, and kowtowed to Lao Zhu.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson has obviously made a big mistake, but he does not repent and forcibly argues, which is really heartbreaking!"

"Now all the industries in Suzhou City are withering, all because the imperial grandson is competing with the people for profit, woo woo woo ......

Zhu Zhang, the king of Qin, also jumped out when he heard this.

"Big nephew, this is your mistake, you are not satisfied with making so much money, and you are still competing with the people of Shengdou for a living?"

Zhou Wang Zhu Hu saw that Lao Zhu had been silent, and he also jumped out to add oil and vinegar.

"Father, Zhu Yunxi has acted perversely, competing with the people for profit, and losing all the royal face, and I hope that Your Majesty will strictly control it, so as not to cause even greater disasters......

When King Yan heard the words of these two people, he also wanted to come out and add a burden to Zhu Yunxi, but seeing the unhappiness on King Jin's face, he leaned back a little, planning to look at the situation.

King Jin saw that everyone blamed the eldest nephew, and the little temper of the short-term came up.

"Second brother, how can opening a weaving workshop be more decent than opening a green building, right?"

"And someone's unpalatable restaurant hasn't been closed, why blame our eldest nephew's industry!"

The two of them were shortened by Zhu Li, and suddenly jumped up like cats whose tails had been stepped on.

"Third child, what do you mean, you're embarrassed to talk about me when you open a casino?"

"Third brother, what you say is not kind, although my brother's restaurant is not good, it is cleaner than your casino......

Lao Zhu saw that the more they talked, the more unkind they became, and hurriedly patted the armrest of the dragon chair and scolded.

"Shut up!"

"Eldest grandson, let's give you ten days to quickly withdraw from Suzhou City!"

"Suzhou is a heavy tax area of the Ming Dynasty, how can it be easily tossed?"

"Withdraw?"

Zhu Yunxi asked rhetorically.

"Grandpa Huang, how do you let your grandson withdraw?"

"My grandson has smashed hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in Suzhou City, and you let me withdraw now, won't I have nothing to lose!"

When Lao Zhu heard this, he was so angry that he got up from the chair.

"Then you will see that nearly 100,000 weavers have no livelihood, and you will see the withering of all industries in Suzhou City!"

"Who said weavers have no livelihood?"

Lao Zhu picked up more than a dozen copies of the music and threw them over and scolded.

"Open your eyes and see for yourself, this is all an impeachment of you competing with the people for profit, causing all industries in Suzhou City to wither and the people to make a living!"

Zhu Yunxi took a few steps forward and picked up a piece of music and flipped through it, seeing that it was all playing the same old tune again, without the slightest intention, he immediately threw it aside.

"Grandpa Huang, if you believe in your grandson, you will wait for two days, and there will definitely be good news in Suzhou City in less than two days!"

"Good news?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said in his heart, this kid is a liar, what has Suzhou City been tossed into by him and the prefect of Zhang, can there be good news?

However, just when Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking like this, a shout suddenly came from outside the door.

"Your Majesty, Suzhou Mansion is urgent!"

When everyone in the hall heard this, their faces all showed solemn expressions. The people who had impeached Zhu Yunxi before were also overjoyed in their hearts, feeling that the imperial grandson was about to be beaten.

Lao Zhu looked at the door with a solemn expression, and he was also very worried in his heart.

He was afraid that something would happen in Suzhou City, and if there was a big incident such as killing officials and dead people, then even if he was reluctant, he would have to punish the rebel grandson.

"Hurry up!"

"No!"

Not long after, Lao Zhu trembled and opened the Suzhou Mansion Emergency Report.

As soon as Lao Zhu saw Zhang Qinglai's name written on the newspaper, his face was a little unhappy.

If it weren't for the eldest grandson to stop him, he would have wanted to click this guy with unclean hands and feet.

"Let's see what your accomplice writes, and we'll clean you up later!"

Lao Zhu threatened Zhu Yunxi, and then he opened the fold and looked at it.

Seeing this, all the officials and vassal kings below craned their necks to look over, curious about what was written in the fold.

However, to everyone's surprise, His Majesty the Emperor turned to the first page and read it again after reading the recital.

What's going on?

Could it be that there was a civil uprising in Suzhou?

After Lao Zhu watched the song again, he still couldn't calm down for a long time.

Although he couldn't believe that the content of the recital was true, he was very hopeful that it was true.

Because once the content on the fold comes true, then his eldest grandson is not only without fault, but thanks to the society and Suzhou!

"Minister Zhang Qinglai respectfully invites Saint Ann!"

"Since the establishment of a government-run textile workshop in Suzhou City, a total of 90,000 weavers have been recruited."

"Now 30,000 people are officially working, and the rest will start work when the looms are in place......

"By then, there will be nearly 100,000 weavers in Suzhou's government-run workshops......

"The efficiency of the new loom built by His Royal Highness will double the efficiency of Suzhou, which will produce tens of millions of silk horses every year......

Lao Zhu was silent for a long time, and the whole person was completely shocked by the numbers on the fold.

A piece of silk is also ten taels to dozens of taels of silver, even if all of them are converted according to the lowest price of ten taels of silver, the total price of tens of millions of silk is also one million taels of silver!

At this time, Lao Zhu had only one voice in his head, our Daming is about to develop!
