Henan.

Kaifeng Mansion Xinzheng.

Suburbs.

In the open space, there is a "mountain" of umbrella stands on the side of each worker, and the workers are gluing and fixing the leather paper on the umbrella frame, and then they will send the finished umbrella embryos to the drying area.

There were neatly arranged hooks on the ground to hold the umbrella embryos, and after an hour or two, workers came to collect them one by one.

Using a variety of paints, the painters can quickly draw exquisite patterns on the surface of the umbrella, up to dozens of kinds, which makes people stunned.

Day 2.

The surface of these umbrellas will be coated with tung oil, and after being made, it will become a hot-selling paper umbrella on the market.

For a few days a month, a lot of trailers come from the factory to transport the goods from the factory warehouse, send them to the agreed place of each business, enter the warehouse of each family, and finally flow into the hands of small traders or customers through the storefront of the business.

Day after day, year after year, workers are working.

The work in the factory is endless.

The workers thought they could live like this forever.

Evening.

The factory is off-duty.

The workers of each shift left the factory in twos and threes, some lived in the dormitory of the factory, and some had their homes in the surrounding area.

The guys of the car dealership, because of the cost, did not negotiate with the manufacturer, and there were not many workers who were willing to spend the car money to go to and from home, so in the end most of the workers chose to stay in the factory.

There are other factories in the vicinity, and there are two that also make paper umbrellas.

The factory area is not boring at night.

The vendors of the night stalls set up several sheds and became a good place for the workers to drink.

"Your girl said kissed?"

"yes."

"Who's that?"

"Our second child in Xiashui Village next door, his second child."

"I can't imagine it's him, how did you marry your daughter to his family." The worker asked curiously.

Most of the people know each other.

I just can't remember it, but after being reminded by people, I have some general impressions.

"Erwazi's family used to be very poor, but he was still good, honest and honest since he was a child, and most of his sons are the same, people like ours are seen as capable men, as long as they are not lazy, what is there."

"That's right, lazy people and lazy mothers-in-law, the family suffers."

"When your girl gets married, it's almost time for your kid to marry his daughter-in-law, and when these two big jobs are completed, your life will be perfect, and you can close your eyes when you die."

The man in his forties nodded.

Speaking of which, time flies so fast, I got married late, most of my peers have their own children, but I am the only one, the family is very anxious, looking back, it seems like it was just yesterday.

The years are unforgiving.

I continued to work in the factory for a few years, and I was fifty years old.

I don't have a craft like others, those painters not only work easily, but also have a high salary, the older they get, the more popular they are, and when they are young, it would be good to be able to learn a craft.

Pity.

Craft is not so easy to learn.

Thinking of this, the man's heart became complicated, he is still doing it now, can he still do it in a few years, and the factory can still want himself.

After leaving the factory, what can I do to make a living.

As for the land at home, it is long gone.

You can't make money farming.

I envy those military households, a family of hundreds of acres of land, but it is difficult to change military status.

It's also weird.

I still remember when I was a child, a military family begged my grandfather to tell my grandmother, hoping that one family could marry their daughter to his son, but they actually begged to go to the old Uncle Zhou's house in their village, and were driven out by the old Uncle Zhou with a stick.

Now Uncle Zhou has long been turned into loess, and the person his daughter married is also his colleague now.

Where is that family now?

The kid in that family should be about the same age as himself, is he still single, or has he married a daughter-in-law and has his own baby, the latter may be older.

I haven't heard of any military family still worried about this.

Thirty years in the east of the river, thirty years in the west of the river.

The man couldn't help but take a sip of wine, the bitterness in his heart, so that he couldn't tell it, some of the confusion about old age, the kid in the family will graduate from middle school in one year, the following books, it seems that his own kid has no talent for reading, so he came to work in the factory as soon as possible.

Several workers drank in a dull manner, each with their own worries.

Chekiang.

Shaoxing Mansion.

In the Xiaoshan area, more than a dozen paper mills have been opened, and their raw materials are provided by other firms.

There are not only Hui merchants, but also local merchants, and even merchants from Beiping.

The steam engine power mixer, which beats countless raw materials into the form of "powder", only needs one hour to provide the needs of the entire pulp pool, so the scale of the paper mill is large.

There are hundreds of pulp pools, which are also small factories, and the largest paper mill in the local area, with nearly 1,000 pulp pools.

At the foot of Xiaoshan, the auxiliary railway leads to Shaoxing Mansion.

Each company's order is different, and it will also produce different types of paper, hemp paper, rice paper, straw paper, leather paper, white paper, yellow paper, as long as the business has any needs, they will produce what type.

A truckload of paper was transported by rail to various parts of Shaoxing Prefecture.

Sanjiang Institute in Shaoxing Prefecture.

There is also a factory that makes umbrellas.

They don't have any painters here, and they don't have many craftsmen.

The leather paper used in this factory has already been formed and printed in the printing house, hundreds of styles are available, and even the umbrella factory provides templates, and the printing house will specially open the mold.

Their umbrella stands are even semi-finished products, all kinds of semi-finished products, and finally assembled in the umbrella factory of Sanjiang Institute.

Piles in batches and piles are piled up.

Not only is it beautifully made, but also the price is low, and it has received more and more orders.

years later.

In just three months, no less than ten new umbrella factories have opened here, but this one industry, not counting the rest, has caused the local railway trains to be busy.

After the trade fair in Beijing, Sanjiang Institute has achieved greater development and attracted orders that have tripled compared with previous years.

Trade fairs.

It has indeed promoted the exchange between businessmen and provided a platform for the exchange of commerce and trade, but it has also led to a lot of drawbacks, and the rich regions have developed faster, relying on their own advantages to absorb more resources.

There are no trade restrictions within the Ming Dynasty, that is, there are no obstacles between places.

A new industry model has emerged in Zhejiang Province.

It wasn't invented out of nowhere.

It is originally local, but in the process of the great development of productive forces, it has exerted its power, as if overnight, countless livelihood commodities can be produced in Zhejiang.

Not only is it produced, but it is also very large and inexpensive.

Through the domestic railways of the Ming Dynasty, Zhejiang's goods are becoming more and more famous, and it has also attracted more merchants, for the sake of interests, merchants have been looking for sources of goods in Zhejiang, which has once again promoted the prosperity of Zhejiang.

Zhang Bo, who was a member of the company, arrived in Hangzhou with many proprietors and shopkeepers.

The West Lake is wide and sparkling, reflecting the blue of the sky and the blue of the distant mountains.

The group traveled, accompanied by local officials.

The wave of industrial development has become one of the local assessments.

There are pros and cons to everything.

As long as it is included in the assessment of officials, it will become the top priority of the local area when it comes to the black yarn hat and their own future, and it has been the case since ancient times, and it is also a manifestation of human nature.

The weeping willows by the lake, swaying gently, seem to tell the story of Hangzhou.

On the lake, a flat boat, leisurely, the fisherman on the boat and his singing, add a bit of vividness to the quiet lake. The Leifeng Pagoda in the distance, standing by the lake, has witnessed the vicissitudes of history.

Everyone sighed at history, and Zhang Bo said with a smile, "We live in modern times, what a good era." ”

"Zhang Xianda said it well."

An official laughed.

After Zhu Gaochi entered Beijing, some of the reforms in Beiping were promoted throughout the country, some disappeared, and some developed in a small area.

Although the status is not as high as that promoted in Beiping, it has also become the most popular title for big businessmen.

Of course.

The most enviable thing is the talent allowance.

It doesn't matter if you have money or not, but the treatment of receiving talent allowance is terrible.

The official sighed inwardly.

Merchants can also have the scenery of today.

Zhang Bo hurriedly laughed and said, "It's just a casual remark." ”

He first worked in the Daming Industrial Bureau, and later founded Heji, and has a very clear understanding of society, the traditional agricultural society, and today's industrial society, the status of businessmen is different.

However, merchants are still businessmen, and they will not become a special group, but the scholars who have a talent allowance, at least when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is alive, must be the highest status group.

At last.

The crowd came to Lingyin Temple, a famous local temple.

When you walk into the temple, you can feel the solemnity and tranquility.

In the Daxiong Treasure Hall, the Buddha statues are solemn and solemn, and the cigarette smoke is filled, giving people a feeling of detachment from the world. The bells in the temple are melodious, and every note seems to wash people's hearts.

Burn incense and worship the Buddha.

The prefect personally came forward and received everyone.

Zhang Bo personally promised to build a production system in Hangzhou, with a total investment scale of no less than 10 million yuan, to comprehensively promote the development of small factories in Hangzhou and promote Hangzhou's productivity.

The prefect returned.

Ask for men to give, and land for land.

Zhang Bo's sense of smell is very sensitive, the first to discover a huge business opportunity, his actions, and let other firms follow, soon after, Hezhong firm also came to Hangzhou, also to invest in the local industry.

One after another funds have converged in Zhejiang.

The accumulation of capital has brought great efficiency.

That's the power of capital.

Compared with the activity of private capital, the Daming Bureau finally found out that something was wrong, and the system of the Daming Bureau in the country suffered an impact.

The first to be affected is the northern region.

In the context of the prosperous market year by year, there are many factories in the north that have no orders, including the Minsheng factories outside the non-core industries under the Daming Industry Bureau system, which have been in a state of loss.

Soon.

Gao Zhen, the chief treasurer of the Daming Industry Bureau, personally asked the Research Department to find out the reason.

Soon after.

Mandarin Palace.

Gao Zhen complained.

The burden of the Daming Bureau is too great, and there are too many areas to transfuse, especially in the border and newly developed areas, such as Samarkand, where a large amount of money is sprinkled by the Daming Bureau, but the income does not know when it will be balanced.

Don't seek profits, at least not at a loss.

The development of private commercial banks in China is more than one day a day, compared with the Daming Industrial Bureau, it is light.

"Our Daming Bureau is too weak."

Gao Zhen took out the "famous saying" of the original grain stamp bank and said.

Zhu Gaochi smiled and shook his head.

All confusion comes from the unknown, but if it is clear or even predicted in advance, then how can there be confusion.

Although I didn't receive what happened in Zhejiang, what happened was that it didn't exceed my understanding, it was just a normal phenomenon.

"You do have a lot of "constraints" in the Ming Industry Bureau, but your advantages are also huge, whether it is the support of the grain stamp bank, and the support of the imperial court, etc., how many private commercial banks are too late to envy. ”

"If I really let you change positions with private trading firms, I'm afraid you won't be willing."

Zhu Gaochi said with a smile.

Gao Zhen did not refute, in front of His Royal Highness the Prince, it is better not to play tricks, otherwise it will not be a big knife in front of Guan Gong.

"However, the intensity of capital has accelerated the imbalance in the region, and in the long run, there may be a catastrophe." Gao Zhen said sincerely.

Zhu Gaochi nodded.

Gao Zhen is the third treasurer of the Daming Industry Bureau, and he has no vision at all, that is, he is not a person.

"The circulation of capital is destined to pursue profits, and the concentration of capital will indeed increase the development of productive forces exponentially, which is also an advantage that cannot be denied."

The first achievement of the United States in modern times in terms of railroads is the superiority of capital concentration.

(Deleted)

In the history of the Ming Dynasty, due to the limitations of history, this problem was not solved, which led to the bankruptcy of the complementary system of the north and the south in the middle and late Ming Dynasty.

That is why the germination of capitalism in the late Ming Dynasty not only failed to promote the national strength of the Ming Dynasty, but instead led to the economic bankruptcy of the Ming Dynasty, which brought great harm.

(Deleted)

People-oriented.

It's the greatest fairness.

Zhu Gaochi clapped his hands and said.

At this time.

Emperor Daming has set a return date, and Zhu Di will probably be able to return to the capital four years before the winter of Yongle.

"The main energy of the Daming Industry Bureau at the moment, in addition to the original affairs, how to mobilize the enthusiasm of the people and replenish the population of the border areas is still the primary task.

"Your Highness has decreed."

Gao Zhen and the others bent down and retreated.

After the beginning of the year.

Some factories in Xinzheng, Kaifeng Prefecture, suddenly ran out of orders.

The proprietors were sweating in a hurry, and went to visit the original business partners in person, begging grandpa to tell grandma, hoping to get orders, and even promised to reduce prices, but in the end they could only get one-third of the orders in previous years.

Low-priced orders, the proprietors are unprofitable.

The employment system of the Ministry of Workers' and People's Unions is a red line, and whoever commits it will be prosecuted, and in the late spring, some factories have closed their doors.

Xinzheng area.

Stained with a layer of gray mist.

The workers who remained working in the factory had no smile on their faces, and although their work was still there, the closure of the factory next door suddenly made them feel threatened.

The original peaceful life seems to be lost.

Many people panicked in their hearts.

Without a job, what do they rely on to eat?

Most people have no land.

Some people still have fields in their hometowns, and they can go to relatives, but this is undoubtedly under the fence.

The business of the night stalls has also been affected.

The workers were afraid to spend money anymore and took the initiative to reduce the number of times they came to drink.

The office of the Daming Industrial Bureau was established locally.

Not only the Xinzheng area, but other regions are also being established, and even promised that they can be converted into military registration and obtain 1,000 acres of land.

It's good to be a farmer.

Even if you're poor, you won't starve to death, will you?

Workers who lose their jobs can really starve to death.

But so.

With the firm implementation of the large-scale well system in China, except for the military and outdoor areas, it is difficult for the original households to keep their fields, because the income of a few acres of land and a dozen acres of land is too low, and they can only fill their stomachs.

"Can you really be transferred to the military?"

"A thousand acres of land? However, I heard that the military households in the next county are only about 100 acres per household, and the military households in Beiping are only 200 acres. ”

With the rise of newspapers, the workers were well-informed.

"It can really be transferred to military status, our signboard of the Daming Industry Bureau, who dares to lie and deceive people? A thousand acres of land is also real, and it is a permanent property right, and no one can take it away. ”

There are many requirements for the military household Katai system, and it is not just the end of dividing the fields.

The staff of the office made an effort to introduce.

"Samarkand?"

"I've never heard of that name." The inquiring workers frowned.

"What's the good of staying local?"

"When Emperor Taizu immigrated from the south to the north, wasn't it also unwilling, and the result? The first people to immigrate, their families have been allocated fields, and their lives are not better? ”

"You emigrated to Samarkand, or it won't be many years, and you will be the same as the locals."

"A thousand acres of land."

The staff tried their best to tempt.

Under the crisis of factory closure, many people who envied the stability of military households finally agreed to leave their hometowns.

1,000 acres of land.

It has become the expectation of many people. (End of chapter)
