Chapter 115: Industrialization (1)

Zhuang Shaoyou took care of Xiangping's affairs and returned to Xiangqi on September 20.

When I just returned, I came to report on Sunday that the specialties I bought from the Ryukyus were sold to the major cities and towns along the Yellow River, and the goods were sold out everywhere! A total of 1,000 catties of gold, 20 million dollars, and the profit is eight times the cost of acquisition!

Moreover, Zhou Tian also got coinage from the hands of local heroes!

Zhuang Shaoyou was so happy that he immediately held a meeting and ordered Mo Qiao and Mo Tie to improve the coinage, and set up a financial department under the administrative hall to take care of the county's financial revenue and expenditure, and be responsible for managing the mint!

However, it is difficult to decide who is in charge of the finance department, and in the end, Moshi suggested that Momei should take care of it, Hua Xin saw this, and hurriedly proposed to let Gongsun Linglong go with him! Guoyuan didn't like it in his heart, after all, the harem interfered in politics and took the way to chaos! Especially with them in charge of such an important department.

Zhuang Shaoyou's head was big for a while, and before he could do anything, there were already relatives of the two major factions! And Hua Xin, the matchmaker, automatically jumped to Gongsun and the party! However, this suggestion is still good, so Mo Mei took office, the first director of the Finance Department, and Gongsun Linglong was the deputy.

And, there is also good news, the five-masted dock hosted by the ink has been completed, and the five-masted ship will be built, and the ink sent someone to ask Zhuang Shaoyou whether to build a warship or a merchant ship first, Zhuang Shaoyou hesitated for a long time, and finally made a decision, or a merchant ship, it is estimated that there will be no big war next year, or business-oriented!

However, in view of the terrible experience of the typhoon last time, Zhuang Shaoyou strongly requested that the manpower oar design be added to the five-masted merchant ship, otherwise once it encountered a storm like last time, the merchant ship could only resign itself to fate, which was very bad! Poseidon can't give face every time!

In short, safety first!

Zhuang Shaoyou's side is a clapper, it cannot be changed, and it is very reasonable, there is no way to refute it, but the ink side is entangled, increasing the manpower oars, but it is to increase dozens of crew members! Not only is the bilge space gone, but the crew cabin is also going to be added!

Wouldn't it be a big joke that the cargo space of a five-masted merchant ship would be the same as that of a four-masted merchant ship? Since the leader's decision is not changeable, and it is indeed reasonable, then start from the place where it can be improved, and then redesign it, try to save space!

In the blink of an eye, autumn and October.

The work was carried out in an orderly manner, Mo Qiao studied the coinage technique that Zhou Tian had brought back, and Mo Tie was still mining in the mountains, and I heard that the copper ore had two other main associated ores besides gold, tin and manganese; Ink was tinkering with shipbuilding in the shipyard, and Mo Mei and Gongsun Linglong were cleaning up the accounts at the county office; Guoyuan and Luo Yu are taking care of various livelihood matters in the county, and they can't be idle all day; Tai Shi Ci has been training with the cavalry battalion, and after the cavalry has replaced the stirrups, more tactics can be used, and the way of fighting will also be changed; Zhang San led the infantry battalion to serve as a laborer in Hongya Town, and while he was engaged in construction, he went into the mountains to help with ink and iron mining.

So, Zhuang Shaoyou was idle, on a whim to run to the street to go shopping, the autumn wind has cooled down, much colder than a month ago, the pedestrians on the road have also added clothes, in October, the county is also a lot of leisure, there is no particularly urgent matter to press, the rhythm is naturally full.

Zhuang Shaoyou walked around the street, and found that the people on the street had begun to prepare for the winter, purchasing all kinds of food, adding clothes, and finally, Zhuang Shaoyou found a different place, many clothing stores have leather clothes for sale, Zhuang Shaoyou stepped forward to ask, the merchant explained, this is all from the northern grassland to buy good fur, there are sheepskin and cowhide, and a few are rare animal fur, very soft, but the sewing process is much worse!

Zhuang Shaoyou looked at this leather coat, and suddenly thought of the appearance of Momei's embroidery, as well as the knitting women mentioned by Moshi, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, everything! Then he spent five hundred dollars to buy one back, intending to let Mo Mei see it.

Zhuang Shaoyou happily returned to the county office with a leather coat, walked to the office of Momei, and watched the children busy with affairs, quite a bit of the taste of women in the workplace, Zhuang Shaoyou drooled, a female colleague in the office! Specially used for me to flirt!

Zhuang Shaoyou stepped forward, and the children glanced up at him, and then continued to be busy, and asked lazily, "Why does General Zhuang have time to come to us to have a look?" ”

Zhuang Shaoyou smiled, took out the leather coat he bought from the street, handed it to Mo Mei and said, "Give it to you!" Don't wear that sackcloth all the time in the future, you are also a master, always dressed so simply like what to say, in case it gets out, people still think that I do it and call people to work without paying! ”

Mo Mei took the leather coat with a smile and stroked it lightly a few times, it was very comfortable to touch, so he looked at it carefully, but the more he looked at it, the more he frowned, and muttered: "What kind of broken things did you buy?" Why are good things being wasted so much? Such clothes can also be taken out and sold for money? And you, a big fool, are willing to spend money to buy it? ”

Zhuang Shaoyou touched his nose, this woman, basically you don't like anything! Say you can do it - it's okay if you can't, say you can't do it - it doesn't work! Horizontal batch, not convinced!

Zhuang Shaoyou sighed and explained: "How can those clumsy guys outside catch up with our family's ink eyebrows, who are ingenious, gentle and virtuous, Lan Xinhui, fair lady, and touching!" ”

Mo Mei glanced at him, and said lightly: "Flim tongue!" ”

"Hehe, Mo Mei, there are a lot of leather goods in the grasslands and mountains in the north, and now they are everywhere in our county, if you want to open a garment factory! You recruit a group of outstanding women, you teach them a few tricks, as long as they can learn your skills, the sewn clothes will be exquisite, absolutely best-sellers! ”

"Hmph, I don't know what you're up to? I got into the money eye all day long! I'm thinking about how to make money, and now I'm not satisfied with getting people to help you take care of your belongings, so let them help you work again! ”

"Hehe, Momei, my good lady, good lady, you can't blame me! You say that your craftsmanship is so good, if you are so idle, it is too tyrannical! This is the stage for you to play! Don't shirk it! ”

"Okay, okay! People owe you in their last life! ”

"Hehe, the lady is really good, this garment workshop is called Momei Garment Workshop, and the sewn clothes are called Momei brand, what does the lady think?" Zhuang Shaoyou struck while the iron was hot and hurriedly suggested.

When Mo Mei heard this, he hesitated a little, and then looked at Gongsun Linglong, and found that her face was pale and a little ugly, and he suddenly understood something and sighed: "No!" It should be called Linglong brand! ”

Zhuang Shaoyou suddenly reacted, turned to look at Gongsun Linglong, then looked at Momei, and said, "Hmm! Linglong card! Very good! Not bad! That's it! ”

Gongsun Linglong lowered her head, her face was slightly red, and her face was happy. Mo Mei rolled his eyes and asked, "Do you still have the pearls you got back last time?" ”

When Zhuang Shaoyou heard this, he asked in surprise, "You won't want it again, right?" Lady, that's expensive! The priceless kind! ”

Mo Mei glanced at him, and looked at Gongsun Linglong Nunu, Zhuang Shaoyou suddenly understood, hesitated, or took out the treasure box from his arms, took out a crystal clear pearl, handed it to Gongsun Linglong, and said, "Sister Linglong, this is for you!" I was going to give it to you when I came back last time, but you went out first, and you forgot about it, you look at my memory, hehe! ”

"Don't worry, Brother Shaoyou!" Gongsun Linglong's hands trembled and her face turned even redder, and she pursed her lips vigorously, as if she was very happy.

Zhuang Shaoyou looked back at Mo Mei, and Mo Mei gouged him with his eyes again, which seemed to mean: I still need to teach you?

Zhuang Shaoyou smiled wryly, and then discussed with the second daughter for a long time about opening a garment workshop, and now this Mo Mei is directly in charge of the treasury, so he directly appropriates the funds.

The next day, notices were posted all over the county

The establishment of a garment workshop in Qiqi County, the recruitment of outstanding knitting women, 30 people, four hours a day, a daily wage of 15 Wen, at the end of the month of the unified settlement, excellent business also have bonuses! Spring ploughing, summer ploughing, harvesting, and Spring Festival holidays, do not delay farming!

As soon as the recruitment notice was posted, the whole city was suddenly sensational, it was too exaggerated, and even recruited female workers, and the majority of women comrades were in tears, who said that women are inferior to men? That's not giving us a stage!

The notice recruited 30 female workers, and the office was located in a small workshop next to the county office, which had just been put down, and could only accommodate more than 30 people.

As a result, more than 1,000 women came to sign up, and some even brought their own masterpieces to sign up.

Seeing this, Zhuang Shaoyou and Mo Mei had big heads for a while, what should they do? The leadership underestimated the enthusiasm of the vast number of women comrades!

In the end, it was decided to let Guoyuan build a large garment factory in the north of the city, and the first phase of the project would accommodate 500 workers at the same time! Guo Yuan was taken aback, five hundred old ladies? How many clothes do you have to sew that day? Not a few thousand pieces a month? Are you going to be able to wear all these clothes? Oh yes, sell it to people somewhere else!

Guoyuan reluctantly accepted this approach, Zhuang Shaoyou slashed him with another thunder, and the city wall in the north of the city was also demolished, and the north of the city was planned as an industrial zone! The 300 hectares of farmland by the river should be moved to the southeast plain of Liaoning, and one hectare will be given to two hectares! Subsidize some demolition costs, it will definitely not be a problem!

Guoyuan secretly discussed, one hectare to two hectares is fine, this is also the demolition fee? Is it necessary? Guoyuan can't understand it, but Zhuang Shaoyou thinks it's normal, since the north of the city has become an industrial zone, the low price must be much more expensive than being farmland, what's wrong with giving some demolition fees? It's really calculated, it's still the county that takes advantage! The land in the southeast of Liaodong is occupied by empty gloves and white wolves!

In this way, the construction of the city wall in the north of the city also began, and the people in the city immediately understood that the general was planning to tear down the city! The city wall has been demolished with such expensive things, isn't it my own broken thatched house... Well, I still hurried to respond to the call of my superiors and moved to the south! I heard that the county government also has to move over, so what else is there to worry about!

The tree dies, the man lives! Moved! As a result, the demolition in the north of the city has brought a huge impact on the concept of the people in the entire county, and virtually resolved the resistance to the demolition of many old cities.

The Chengbei Industrial Zone has spent a total of one million dollars on demolition and construction!

For a while, the people of the county were excited! Everyone is looking forward to being demolished! Zhuang Shaoyou can't cry or laugh, there are some places that don't need to be moved!

The garment factory was built quickly, anyway, it is a big house, no technical content is required, as long as it can shelter from the wind and rain, it is almost the same, there are no special requirements, it is big, and there are many people!

In less than ten days, the construction of a garment workshop covering an area of ten hectares was completed, and Mo Mei and Gongsun Linglong also selected 500 outstanding ones from the more than 1,000 applicants, and Zhou Tian also helped buy a batch of furs and other items needed by the female red from the north.

In mid-October, the garment workshop started, and Mo Mei began to personally teach the female workers the skills of female popularity, the female workers are very motivated, the progress is very fast, the skills learn the craft, and they can earn money to go home, so they are naturally very positive!

These female reds were divided into five groups, the first group sewed tops, the second group sewed hakama, the third group sewed lining, the fourth group polished, and the fifth group embroidered.
