In order to divert the topic, Guo Kang told Tuhuan what he had just happened again.

"This is an opportunity." He thought of a reason: "The order of most of the capital back then was rectified by my uncle Lidegong." But in the decades since, the city has grown in size and with more and more people, but it has not been managed. Now I'm in charge of it, and I'm also inheriting the legacy of my predecessors. ”

"No problem." Tuhuan also expressed his support: "Isn't this good? ”

"Oh, just a little." He thought for a moment and advised, "Since you want to do it, make it bigger." If you only focus on this matter, everyone will suspect that you deliberately targeted Cao Jian or Pronsky and caused conflicts with them. But if it is clear that it is aimed at all the gangs in the city, there is no need to shy away from it. When the time comes, they will take the initiative to cut off these people. ”

"Including Pronsky. Since he is the son-in-law of the Cao family, he can be regarded as his own person in Rome. I know you think he is a sleek person, and he is a foreign tyrant chief, so he is not very credible, but there are some things that can be thought of in your heart, and when you are doing things seriously, as long as he doesn't do anything out of line, we can't deliberately target him. ”

"He is the person chosen by the Cao family, and the Cao family is a pillar country recognized by our system. Therefore, if we want to maintain this system, we must not disagree with others except for the things that need to be avoided as stipulated in the rules. Otherwise, what will others think about intermarrying with us and taking refuge in us? ”

Of course, there are risks, but what is not risky? If something really goes wrong, then I will also help Cao deal with it together. He concluded: "Because that's part of our rules, we can't just take the benefits and not take the risks; Just receive, don't pay for it. ”

Guo Kang nodded, indicating that he understood.

What Tuohuan said does make sense. Everyone has a time when they are in trouble, and if others see the Cao family being abandoned, they will wonder if the next one is their own. In this way, everyone can only prioritize their own survival, and it will be difficult to maintain this level of unity.

"Well, from a historical point of view, this is not a good thing." Guo Kang couldn't help but sigh: "Relying on the upper-level families to hold each other together and protect each other, no matter how you look at it, it is not a good way to last." ”

"It's okay, it's better than the barbarian system anyway." Tuhuan didn't care too much: "I also want to recruit more people, from a dozen families to all the families in Rome, so that when the soldiers are gathered, everyone can be more motivated." But who made us this condition now? You can't study Poland. ”

"I'm going to support the things you said about textiles and stuff like that." He said: "I think that only when these industries are developed can more people have the energy to study, and then they can talk about the rest." Otherwise, we estimate that we will never be able to catch up with Yuan and Ming. ”

"Then I'll give you a copy of the information." Guo Kang said smoothly.

"What am I here for?" Tuhuan immediately refused: "You can figure it out and tell me the result." Anyway, I'm not as good as you, so what are you wasting that time for? ”

"Then I'll just give you the result." Guo Kang had no choice but to give in: "I still have to see this." Take a look at it and you will know how big this industry can be. ”

"In addition, I also told Master Wang that in this pilot, we can directly use the new technology. I believe that these nuns will be able to support themselves and even make more profits. If we can do a good job, we can even promote managers directly from here in the future. ”

"Is that okay?" Dehuan was a little surprised.

"yes." Guo Kang said: "The textile industry has low physical requirements, which is relative to farming. In production, the machine still needs a certain amount of strength to achieve maximum efficiency. So, it needs to be operated by a healthy, powerful woman. ”

"Again, it's a job that requires skill. It's not enough to just work hard, you also need to learn technology. This includes basic skills such as weaving cloth and weaving patterns, as well as additional needs such as maintenance and repair of machinery. ”

In addition, what style of cloth to weave, to whom the woven cloth is given, and how much money to exchange for, these also need to be paid attention to by the weaver. Because the cotton textile industry is different from the 'big project' such as silk, most of them are produced by a single household or a single person. So weavers even had to learn literacy and arithmetic in order to trade with merchants, take orders from them, and sell the woven cloth. ”

"Think about it, what is the level of a woman who can shake a large loom, settle accounts with merchants, and sign contracts." Guo Kang finally concluded: "I think it will not be too difficult to pick out those who have management ability from this kind of person. ”

"It's really ...... to say that" Tuhuan seemed to really didn't expect this: "In addition to training and preparation, this is also a way to improve the ability of non-governmental organizations." ”

"In the Ming Dynasty, the people spontaneously formed this kind of organization." Guo Kang told him: "In the Jiangnan area, there are businessmen known as 'bag buyers'. They would provide loans to peasant women, regular distributions of raw materials, and even looms. And the peasant women of the whole village and the whole community weave cloth in batches according to their requirements. Although many people still work from home, in practice a relatively tight organization has been formed, and large businessmen are able to control hundreds of looms and produce uniformly as needed. ”

"My plan is actually to copy them." He admitted: "It's just that our side is still too backward, and the businessmen don't necessarily have this ability, so we taught ourselves to be this 'contractor'." ”

It just so happens that these nuns are more concentrated in their daily lives, and they can be trained in a unified manner. Moreover, compared with ordinary people, their cultural level is also higher, and they can be cultivated first, and then the church will send them to various places. In this way, it will be possible to increase efficiency and replicate the experience of the East on our side. ”

"Yes, yes." Tuhuan nodded repeatedly.

"Helping each other is the cornerstone of a country." Guo Kang also took the opportunity to say: "I think, whether it is the upper or lower class, whether it is a man or a woman, if we can do this, we will not worry about anything." ”

"In addition, among these nuns, we can also train and select leaders." He proposed: "After the increase in tasks, there will definitely be a need for more professional people in addition to the grandmother who is already running the order." For example, the purchase, the organization of manpower, the design of patterns...... We can do this work at the beginning, but in the end, we will definitely have to leave it to them. ”

"It's all an opportunity to exercise. I believe that as long as we train in this kind of organization for a while, we can get a group of women with management skills. This is very good for our country and our army. ”
