Chapter 128: Not Enough Manpower? does not exist
Obviously, the appearance of Wang Siqi has undoubtedly given everyone present a shot in the arm, as long as the temptation can ensure the supply and the quality of the iron furnace can be guaranteed, then there is no doubt that the ordinary people of the general public are one of the people who support Wang Siqi the most.
"As long as this tin furnace is true and effective, and can allow us to live a warm winter, then we will definitely support the new policy of the imperial court."
"That's right, as long as this tin stove is useful, I decided to use charcoal instead of charcoal this year."
Everyone present enthusiastically showed a very high enthusiasm for buying, and even Wang Siqi said with surprise: "The price of our iron furnace is still relatively high, and after a while, when the production cost is knocked down by us, that is, when the selling price drops, I hope that everyone will actively support the business of Baoyuan Bureau." ”
There is no doubt that Wang Siqi still felt caught off guard by such enthusiasm for purchasing, but he still reacted quickly, after all, the promotion of iron furnaces is not temporary, but long-term.
Today, the cost of heating for the people can be reduced, and tomorrow the people of Daming will be able to live a better life.
Even if it can't be promoted from the capital to the north in a short time, it is worth it, as long as there is a beginning, then the result must be good.
.....
Wang Siqi's appearance was quite effective, and soon the crowd dispersed again.
Waiting for the price reduction of the tin stove.
The other side.
Wang Siqi is being tested again by Zhu Di.
"This matter must be done as soon as possible, it can benefit thousands of households, and can let the people live a warm winter, which is a great achievement!"
"Minister, obey!"
.....
In the Baoyuan Bureau, officials from all walks of life gathered here, but the one with the worst face was kicked by Zhu Di from home to Wuzhong, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry of the Baoyuan Bureau.
After all, his own son had just been beaten.
When Lao Tzu couldn't help take revenge, Zhu Di had to ask him to coordinate the Ministry of Industry to help the Baoyuan Bureau as much as possible... This made Wu Zhongli a depressed person.
But the official residence is a product and is in a high position.
The city of Wuzhong was obviously unfathomable, and I saw him sitting on a chair, nodding vigorously, and with a faint smile on his face, he casually pinched the teacup and sent it to his mouth one by one.
"Lord Wang said it well... No wonder the emperor can hand over this matter to you, to the Baoyuan Bureau, and the great talent will be of great use... I believe that in the future, not only the emperor will reward Lord Wang, but even the people of the world will read Lord Wang's goodness! ”
The chill is all over the body.
"This is natural, but you don't need Lord Wu to worry about it, this is the duty of a courtier."
"I just don't know if Lord Wang knows... Once this charcoal furnace is to be used by thousands of households, how much iron is needed, and not to mention how much silver it costs to buy these iron materials, it is a big problem to say whether they can be bought. ”
Listening to Wu Zhong's words, Wang Siqi nodded, looked at Feng Zongwu on the side and said: "This is also the reason why the emperor wants us to discuss this matter with each other today. ”
"The most important thing is that now we can smelt iron ourselves, in other words... In the matter of iron materials, we can also find a way for the Baoyuan Bureau ourselves. ”
Hear Wang Siqi's words.
Wu Zhong suddenly felt uncomfortable, once such a splashing achievement was made by Wang Siqi.
Combined with the illustrious family background, the achievements of the future must not be comparable to today.
So he smiled and said, "Lord Wang is really joking, this iron smelting is not a trivial matter, and the necessary craftsmen alone need not a small amount, and it is like a fantasy to open a furnace without a year. ”
Regarding Wang Siqi's statement that he could make iron, Wu Zhong didn't believe it at all.
But Feng Zongwu nodded solemnly: "That.. Lord Wang, then we will start to recruit experienced craftsmen, but how should we choose this place? ”
"Out of town?"
"Well, the emperor has given us a piece of land in the imperial village for us to use to build a workshop."
It sounded like everything was ready, but Wu Zhong squinted at Wang Siqi, feeling that it was nonsense that he had said so much for a long time?
"Now that Lord Wang has a comprehensive plan, he doesn't need any help from an old man of my age."
"In this case, I have other things, why don't you go first?"
Going?
What do you think...
Wang Siqi immediately changed his face and hurriedly waved his hand: "Lord Shangshu is the parent official of the Ministry of Industry, and he is also the mother's family of our Baoyuan Bureau.. No matter how long he walks or how far he goes, the official will never forget the Ministry of Industry and the maiden relative of Lord Wang. ”
"Nowadays craftsmen are hard to find, and iron is not easy to make."
"It's better to. Lord Wang will find a way to lend us some manpower first. I don't want much, but I have 1,800 skilled craftsmen. ”
...
Wu Zhong couldn't believe it, and after a long circle of feelings, he finally found his head, but Zhu Di asked the Ministry of Industry to cooperate with this matter.
Wu Zhong, who had no choice, had no choice but to widen his eyes, as if he had heard something incredible.
"Eighteen hundred craftsmen? Where do I find so many people? Even if I searched through the entire Ministry of Industry, I couldn't find so many people. ”
"Now the Northern Expedition is coming! Crafting weapons and ordnance is also an important thing, and I can't pull out people! ”
"Heartlessness! There is a weak heart! ”
Anyone can help... But help Wang Siqi? How could Wu Zhong compromise at will, but Wang Siqi also prepared a generous gift for Wu Zhong early.
"Difficult?"
"If it's difficult, don't do it... Ah no, I just don't embarrass Lord Wu, so.. Things still have to be done with the help of the Ministry of Industry, as for other things, don't worry about Lord Wu? ”
"What do you mean?"
"Baoyuan Bureau.. Self-funded! ”
"Lord Wang! It's definitely a rare talent for thousands of years, so it's decided.. Don't worry, I will definitely say good things to you on the emperor's side, and I will not shirk anything that requires the Ministry of Industry to come forward in the future! ”
After that, Wu Zhong said goodbye.
Feng Zongwu had a sad face: "My lord.. Without a suitable craftsman, we will probably find it difficult to spare manpower for a while, after all, the minting of coins will not stop for a while."
"This..."
"When did I say that I was going to draw men from the minting craftsmen?"
"But we won't have anyone for a while... What if it is delayed and the emperor blames it? ”
"Who said that no one is full of people, this official has seen many, many people!"
"Huh?"
...
Outside the major workshops of the Ministry of Industry, no matter what is built, the door is full of all kinds of banners. The above good rice paper is the base, with tung oil red paint as the ink, and it is written...
Baoyuan Bureau recruits! Five taels per month!
Three years of work! Automatic Departure!
