Chapter 1239: Rich and powerful

He became a foreman and his salary increased three times.

Liu Ernu looked at the nanny in disbelief.

The nanny smiled and said, "With the new owner, the rules are still the rules of our Xishan cotton spinning workshop. Don't worry, the shopkeeper Wang adheres to the meaning of Duke Qi and has already told others clearly that this cotton spinning workshop must follow the rules, so you don't have to worry. Just teach the newly recruited girls in the early stage, and when they are officially put into production, you should take everyone to work. What you deserve is yours. Not only that, this Xishan book is also taught. When you have free time, you can still read. Sometimes you buy a few books yourself and take a look at them when you are free. Reading... is useful."

"Yes, yes..." Liu Er's female chicken nodded as if pecking at the rice, and cried with joy.

Now, a large number of workshops are preparing to build, and many merchants have already figured out that the output of this new machine is quite large, and can minimize labor, small profits and quick turnover. The market in the Ming Dynasty is extremely broad. Now... whoever starts production quickly will be rich in the future.

I even heard that Siyang Commercial Bank seems to be preparing to purchase such cloth.

Siyang Commercial Bank has begun to expand slowly in the West, and every place has its own stations. Their main business is maritime trade. Because it monopolized the privilege of Ming Dynasty's foreign trade and had a lot of money, they recruited a lot of people. The cloth was cheap and the output was high. As long as there were enough ships to be transported to sea, they could still compete with the local cloth of various countries.

Under such huge benefits, customizing machines, building factories, recruiting experienced people, and training new people has become the top priority.

This first cotton spinning workshop has been put into production for more than a month.

They have already understood all aspects of production.

For merchants, they can afford their salary. As long as the future profit is expected, it is not a problem, not to mention three times the salary, five times or ten times. What they fear most is that problems arise after production. After all, this is a new thing. How to schedule, prepare materials, how to enter the warehouse, and when encountering problems during the production process, how to deal with them, how to arrange various construction sections, these... are all big problems.

Therefore, the female workers in this first cotton spinning workshop, including those responsible for machine maintenance and maintenance, have become popular now.

The maid called many more names.

Almost all these hundreds of female workers have arrangements.

As for whether they go or not, it is another matter.

A workshop requires dozens of foreman, as well as a small shopkeeper and a big shopkeeper.

But most cotton spinning workshops can only recruit women.

Otherwise, if a man is recruited, I am afraid no one will go to work.

Liu Ernu was dizzy, as if fate pushed her to the forefront.

Not only her, but there are seven or eight sisters recruited in the first cotton spinning workshop, most of whom are foreman or small shopkeepers. In this way, even if they go to a strange environment, they will be taken care of.

The nanny announced one by one that she was already dry and said, "Tomorrow, everyone will go their separate ways. But in the future, no matter which workshop they go to, everyone will be from the first cotton spinning workshop, and they must take care of each other."

The nanny seemed very excited.

She was an ordinary woman, but who expected that she had entered a cotton spinning workshop. Now, a new workshop had to invite her to be the shopkeeper, with fifty taels of silver a month, regardless of other rewards.

That night, I held a banquet and after eating, I went back to the dormitory to clean up. The next morning, it was true... many cars and horses came from various businesses.

The women got on the bus one after another, and these businesses wanted to serve these people as ancestors.

Liu Ernu only carried a burden and stood upright. At this time... it seemed that people had confidence.

She got into the car, lifted the curtains, and saw the quiet first cotton spinning workshop.

Without the roar of machines and the thick smoke rolling on the chimney, this workshop stood alone.

Liu Ernu was in a daze.

But suddenly, she saw two familiar voices.

The man named Zhu Xiucai said that he was His Royal Highness of the Crown Prince, but Liu Ernu did not think that because the crown prince should not be like this, would the crown prince carry a big bag with his shirtless scream? Will the crown prince take out a wrench from his body with him?

Today, Zhu Xiucai was not shirtless. He was wearing a beautiful dress, with his hands behind his back, standing there with Duke Qi, looking at the chariots and horses from afar.

Liu Ernu was originally immersed in joy.

But in a flash, these countless memories passed by in my mind like a lantern.

In an instant, her eyes turned red and tears swelled like a fountain.

…………

Zhu Houzhao poked Fang Jifan's waist.

Fang Jifan said sternly: "What are you doing?"

Zhu Houzhao said, "Lao Fang..." He took a breath and looked at the women who were getting on the bus one after another.

Have been together for more than a month.

Even Liu Jin has been with him for a long time, and he still has feelings for him.

Zhu Houzhao said: "Will they be bullied when they go elsewhere? Will there be men like this in the workshop rush in, shirtless and malicious?"

"No," Fang Jifan comforted Zhu Houzhao and said, "Ordinary people are shameless."

Zhu Houzhao sniffed, a little reluctant, and sighed: "Don't say strange things here."

Fang Jifan waved his hand: "I won't talk anymore, I won't talk anymore. Your Highness, there is no banquet in the world that will last. Once we sell machines, the first cotton spinning workshop will be profitable. Instead of letting the workshops compete with other workshops, it is better to provide the cotton spinning workshops with machines so that they can compete and fight on their own."

"Yes." Zhu Houzhao nodded.

At this time, a eunuch came: "Your Highness, Duke of Qi, and Empress are invited."

……………………

Early in the morning, Xishan sent people to deliver a lot of books.

Now there is a special library in Xishan, which collects countless masterpieces from Xishan Academy.

It involves economics, engineering, chemistry, medicine, and mathematics.

These books were compiled by Jiang Chen.

Some books are popular and are naturally published for printing, but some books are too awkward and difficult to understand, and not many people can understand them. In addition to searching for the benefits shared in journals, the authors organize their knowledge in the library, and then bind them into books, print some, and then collect them in the current library.

Every day, there are many people who go to the library to study.

Not only ordinary students, but also outsiders.

In the eyes of many people, if they encounter questions, they can always find ways to find answers in the library.

Queen Zhang was dumbfounded when she looked at the boxes of books.

Chemistry... don't understand...

Mathematics... I was dizzy when I looked at it and felt a little dizzy.

Medicine... Looking at the human anatomy pictures, Queen Zhang felt a little scary.

Engineering...

Agriculture...

Fortunately, the new study... Queen Zhang can understand more thoroughly, but...

Queen Zhang couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Ruying."

"Empress." Liang Ruying looked down at the side.

Sitting next to Liang Ruying was Fang Xiaofan.

Fang Xiaofan was raised by Empress Zhang. She usually likes to read books and always stays with Empress Zhang quietly, silently.

Queen Zhang rubbed her temples: "Oh, I only took a few glances at these books and felt that the headache was so severe. This knowledge was too profound."

"Not at all." Fang Xiaofan said on the side: "It's very simple, Empress, look, just say that this calculation is nothing more than a function, this function..."

"Xiao Fan, go read your book." Empress Zhang smiled and said to Fang Xiaofan.

Fang Xiaofan said oh and continued to lie on the desk.

She is almost twelve years old, graceful, pretty and cute.

Now that Xiurong has been married, Queen Zhang feels empty-hearted. Looking at Fang Xiaofan, Queen Zhang can think of Zhu Xiurong when she was not married.

Liang Ruying smiled and said, "Empress, the sea of ​​knowledge is endless. If you want to learn knowledge, you will have to put in some effort."

With Liang Ruying's encouragement, Empress Zhang nodded: "It makes sense. Others can learn it, so why can't I learn it? But where is it better to start?"

Liang Ruying: “…”

Facts have proved that it is easy to give Queen Zhang some chicken soup to life, but it is nothing more than working hard and success. You are not stupider than others.

But it involves specific...

Liang Ruying coughed slightly: "It's better to study medicine."

Queen Zhang said, "I feel dizzy when I see blood."

Liang Ruying had no choice but to say, "Empress, in fact, Empress is the mother of the country. What is the use of this specific knowledge? Empress is like Your Majesty, who takes care of the overall situation."

"The overall situation?" Queen Zhang frowned and stared at Liang Ruying.

Liang Ruying coughed: "This, this..."

Queen Zhang sighed: "I know, you think I am stupid."

"No, nothing." Liang Ruying said.

Queen Zhang smiled: "It's not about blaming you, but if you say you are taking the overall situation, I have some clues. Come on, recruit my brothers."

…………

Since the two brothers Zhang Heling and Zhang Yanling have become rich, they have suddenly become low-key.

The troubles of rich people are not afraid of stealing, but are afraid of thieves thinking about them.

When they heard their sister summoning them, their faces turned green.

When he arrived at Kunning Palace and saw Empress Zhang, Zhang Heling slapped and knelt down: "Empress, summon me to come, I don't know what to do."

When Queen Zhang saw that they had patches on their clothes, she couldn't help but say, "Look at you, what you look like, so shabby, I don't know, I thought someone had treated you badly."

Zhang Heling suddenly burst into tears: "Empress, you don't know, I... I'm so poor. Early this morning, I was still knocked by the sand in the porridge. It still hurts now."

Queen Zhang was concerned and said in surprise: "You have to tell someone to use water to wash rice when drinking porridge."

"It can't be like this..." Zhang Yanling said: "In Qiusuo journal, there was an agronomist who wrote an article. The nutrition in this rice is all on the surface. Mi Yitao, this good thing has been washed away by water, and it's a waste of resources."
