In the textile factory, Fang Zhengyi led Li Yuanzhao to inspect various places.

He was relieved to leave Liu Xun's case to Xie Xian. Xie Xian was one of the few highly educated people in the county who was good at business and robbery.

Except for the fact that personal force is weak, it is the best choice both in theory and in practice.

His most urgent task at the moment is the textile factory.

The construction of the textile factory was certainly partly due to the princess.

But the more important thing is to provide the people in the capital with warm clothing in winter and to promote new textile machines.

The capital city is the core of Dajing's economy and politics. Once a new type of creation breaks out from here and can make huge profits, it will soon spread all over the world.

For Fang Zhengyi, it is wonderful for children to love each other, but people should always have some ideals and ambitions.

Now that I have come out of Taoyuan County to shoulder greater responsibilities, I must leave something good to this world.

At this time, the textile factory was nearly completed, and female workers had already been recruited, and they were just waiting for notification to start working.

What is currently lacking are some simple facilities and basic furnishings for female workers’ dormitories.

The main body of the factory occupies a large area and is basically designed in an assembly line manner.

The yarn is spun first, and then each part is sewed down step by step according to the processing steps.

As for the clothing models produced, they are basically too large.

Ordinary people in Dajing usually don’t buy clothes that fit them perfectly. They buy bigger clothes that are easier to wear.

One is to make working more comfortable, and the other is to make it easier to pass it on to the next generation.

If the child is older than you, you can still pick up the one from the previous generation and continue to wear it. If the child is younger, it will cause a lot of trouble.

This is similar to the early black rap singers.

They were all poor children and could only wear their relatives' baggy clothes.

Of course, they also have a large gold chain with a density less than water to cover up their unfortunate childhood...

In order to improve production efficiency, textile factories also built dormitories.

After all, it is opened outside the city, so going back and forth is extremely inconvenient and a waste of time. This is a necessary facility in order to increase production efficiency.

The dormitory for female workers is for eight people per room. It is fully equipped with tables, chairs and benches and looks similar to a university dormitory.

You can't say that, after all, the dormitory area seems to be much larger than the university dormitory.

There is also a special place for drying clothes outside the house, as well as some special areas for leisure activities.

There are wells between the dormitories for easy access to water, and there is a cafeteria not far away.

The canteen is free, and a dedicated childcare space is also provided.

If conditions permit, we may even find some enlightened gentlemen to take classes with our children in the future.

It's not that Fang Zhengyi was so considerate, but now women generally have children at an earlier age.

It is common to have children between fourteen and five years old.

The age limit for recruiting female workers is fifteen. Most women have children. Men go out to work before dawn and have no one to take care of their children.

If childcare institutions are not set up, there is a high probability that they will not be able to recruit enough workers.

The remaining parts are the raw material warehouse and the finished product warehouse.

In this part, male workers are arranged to be responsible for transportation...after all, women are still far behind in manual labor.

After watching the whole scene, Fang Zheng felt that there was nothing wrong, so he turned to Li Yuanzhao and asked: "Your Highness, what do you think of the construction of our textile factory?"

Li Yuanzhao nodded and asked, "It's good, but it's a little too good."

"Oh... In comparison, it feels like the dogs our reporter lived with earlier are not as good as..."

How can anyone pay a dog a salary?

Fang Zheng curled his lips and said: "It is difficult to recruit female workers. If the repairs are worse, who would be willing to work here?"

"Although the cost of this part is higher, female workers are cheaper!"

"If we recruit male workers, it will cost two yuan a month. What about female workers? One and a half yuan! A quarter saved! How can the work be better than carpentry before the job is done?"

After listening, Li Yuanzhao had a solemn expression: "Women actually save money like this, so why don't newspapers use female reporters?"

"Haven't female reporters never read books? Who doesn't like female reporters!"

Fang Zhengyi vaguely remembered that he had a girlfriend or wife in his previous life? She was a female reporter, and she seemed to have called Bingbing...

"Besides, which of the educated and literate ladies is willing to come out and show off every day?"

Li Yuanzhao looked a little regretful: "That would be a pity."

Fang Zhengyi sighed: "Yes, our newspaper office doesn't have uniforms yet. We should customize one at the textile factory this time."

"What uniform?"

"It's okay. When our textile factory is built, we will not only sell clothes and fabrics, but also textile machines!"

"Huh? Is it the same textile machine as in Jianjiang?"

"right!"

Li Yuanzhao said doubtfully: "Lao Fang, I can understand the need to recruit people urgently when we are building Jiang, but it is not necessary in the capital."

"If we sell the textile machines to them, won't we make less money? How about we keep the production ourselves?"

Fang Zheng chuckled: "Your Highness, I can understand others thinking this way, but I can't understand you thinking this way."

"You are the prince of the country, and you should not put the petty profits of a moment and place in front of you. The promotion of new textile machines will benefit the country and the people."

"This is actually good for us."

"Once the new textile machines are promoted across the country, the price of clothing will drop rapidly. If the price of clothing drops, people will naturally be willing to buy it. In this way, all the production links before clothing will increase accordingly, and everyone will benefit from it. This is

Win-win cooperation.”

Li Yuanzhao said with a smile: "I understand this truth. When I first went to Taoyuan County, the book stalls in the county were selling books. This is what you told me when you were counting words in vernacular. I later told my father,

He said you were eloquent!"

Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows: "How can the number of words "water" be considered eloquent?"

"Let me give you an example. It's like our newspaper has no news to report, but it will be published tomorrow. So what should we do now? We need to reduce the number of words!"

"Let's first make a transcript of the celebrity interview and publish the conversation between the two in the newspaper. Then don't we have as much content as we want?"

"There are other ways... Anyway, use as much water as you want!"

Li Yuanzhao said nonchalantly: "Isn't that ugly? Who wants to see something filled with water?"

"I don't care if it looks good or not? It quenches my thirst!"

"Okay, let's not mention this matter. Water word count is a science. Your Highness has time to find two books and go back and study it carefully."

"After the textile factory is officially put into operation, we will gather all the cloth merchants in the city for a meeting! We will try to buy as much of the goods as possible from them."

Buy all the cloth from cloth merchants in the city? What kind of operation is this?

Li Yuanzhao asked in a confused tone: "Why do you want to buy it? How much will it cost to buy it all?"

Fang Zheng thought for a while and said, "It's said that I'm buying them all, but they may not be selling them all! I think five or sixty thousand taels should be enough!"

"Once our textile factory is started, the price of the products produced should be crushing to other cloth merchants in Beijing!"

"If we start stocking up without saying a word, it will be a fatal blow to those small businessmen."

"First of all, they can't sell the goods in their hands, and they won't have the chance to sell them again in the future. Even if they do, they can only sell them at a loss, so it's basically like losing money."

"On the other hand, it is one thing for us to be able to produce fabrics or ready-made clothes, but it is another thing to sell them! If we sell them well, we can also use their existing stores to sell goods on the market, which is another

It’s a win-win situation, do you understand?”

"I understand! But how can we have 50,000 or 60,000 taels of silver in our workshop?" Li Yuanzhao asked.

Fang Zheng said with a serious look on his face: "For the sake of the great scenery, the people can wear high-quality and low-priced clothes! I paid for this money!"
Chapter completed!
