"Nanjing Clothing Factory is doing well. Remember, the factory director Tan Yuhua has been promoted to the ninth rank."

After leaving the bedding factory, Zhu Ma said to Liu Shuying with a satisfied look.

Liu Shuying smiled and took out a pen and recorded it.

After following Tan Yuhua, who was outside the crowd, was stunned and immediately bowed: "Thank you Your Majesty!"

Tan Yuhua was originally just a minor official in the Nanjing Weaving Bureau. Because of his diligence and ability, he was appointed as the director of the ninth-rank clothing factory in the new policy of the Ministry of Works. Unexpectedly, he was promoted to another level in just over a month.

I am really grateful to Zhu Moe.

If it weren't for Zhu Da, he would have been a minor official who would never be able to do anything in his life. How could he show his strengths and make achievements like he is now?

Zhu Mai signaled him to get up and said, "In addition to completing production tasks, the wardrobe factory also needs to pay attention to safety issues. It must prevent fires and prevent female workers from being hurt, especially the managers bullying female workers. Do you understand?"

After hearing this, Tan Yuhua felt a stern in his heart, and then he realized that he was the empress now, so he hated such things the most. He quickly responded: "I remember it!"

Zhu Mai said again: "After the factory affairs are fully on track, you can further expand production. In addition to completing military supplies, you can also produce civilian goods for profit.

If the factory is run better and better, the court will promote you again, and it may not be impossible to become a central courtier in the future."

This means: If you work hard, you will have a bright future.

Therefore, Tan Yuhua became even more excited when he heard this and bowed to answer: "Weichen decided to work hard to run a bedding factory!"

Zhu Meiyu said to Song Yingxing next to her: "Didn't the first batch of clocks in the watch factory I visited before be produced? Then, one of these official factories will be provided first, so that the people in the factory can adapt to the 24-hour system as soon as possible.

”

Song Yingxing nodded and said, "I remember it."

After leaving the wardrobe factory, Zhu Mai went to inspect the Nanjing Military Food Factory nearby.

Unlike other military supplies factories, the security issues of military ration factories are very important. Therefore, workers recruit good people from within or outside Nanjing who have been reborn for at least three generations, and they must have family members.

Although the products of military ration factories will undergo multiple safety inspections, if someone is poisoning or something, it will at least delay production and affect the supply of military rations.

Therefore, in addition to understanding the working environment and specific treatment of workers in the military ration factory, Zhu Nishi, also gave a safety speech, reminding the officials of the military ration factory that workers must pay attention to the hygiene and safety of military ration production and strictly implement the regulations on each production link.

Never make mistakes.

In the afternoon, Zhu Niu took people to inspect the glass factory, glass mirror factory and the Machinery Manufacturing Bureau.

Among them, the glass factory and the mirror factory are next to each other.

The reason why the two are separated is that both have a broad market in the Ming Dynasty and the money prospects are huge. If they are put together, they will inevitably expand rapidly and appear bloated in the future.

Secondly, it is because the two tend to be different in terms of craftsmanship - the mirror factory tends to make mirrors into luxury goods needed by the middle class and the wealthy class in the early stage, with the main purpose being to make money.

Although glass mirrors will also be sold as luxury goods in the early stage, they will develop into the mid- and low-end market faster than mirrors. In addition, they will also develop various "high-precision" glass products for scientific research.

These two factories are available in Chengdu, so they both avoid the step of realizing future technology. They can just follow the experience of the Chengdu factory and start production this month (July).

However, Zhu Mei and Hao Guangming regard these two products as the main means to pay for the rich, so they are currently sold as luxury goods, and the production scale is not large.

At the same time, the confidentiality level of these two games is also very high.

All production links are strictly divided, and officials and workers need to be kept confidential, and each has a scepter guarding them, so technology is basically impossible to be stolen.

Even if the technology is stolen in the future, as long as it is not stolen to the enemy country to do it, the court can launch a legitimate attack.

Of course, after some years and the time is ripe, Zhu Nishi will also let go of the control of glass and mirror production technology.

The Nanjing Machinery Manufacturing Bureau is currently under construction, and its main task is to manufacture steam engines, which are also a key protection unit.

Because it has not yet been put into production, the Machine Manufacturing Bureau has nothing to look good at, so Zhu Xi just inspected it briefly...

On July 18, Zhu Mai went out of the city to inspect the cement factory, Longjiang Shipyard, and Nanjing Ship Manufacturing Bureau.

In the cement factory, Zhu Xixi emphasized that it is necessary to try to improve the working environment of workers and strictly implement work rules and regulations, such as wearing protective masks when working, and working years must be strictly limited to within five years, etc.

Early cement production workers were prone to lung disease. Zhu Mai did not want the Ming Dynasty's official cement factory to become a devil factory that harmed workers, so not only did the wages be paid high, but the requirements for working conditions and production links were also quite strict.

At Longjiang Shipyard, Zhu Xiyu mainly reviewed the glorious history of Longjiang Shipyard with the officials and master craftsmen in the factory.

This is one of the main shipbuilding bases in the early Ming Dynasty, and Zheng He's treasure ships voyages to the West were produced here.

Now Longjiang Shipyard has long been declining, and can only produce warships, sea ships, inland river ships with a capacity of less than 1,000 materials, and large ships with a capacity of only 1,000 materials can be produced in theory, but in fact, the largest ship produced in the past decades is only 600 materials.

Zhu Mei was eager to hope that the officials of the shipyard would restore the former glory of the Longjiang shipyard as soon as possible and build a large ship of thousands of materials.

At the same time, it also instructed that Longjiang Shipyard would work together with the newly established Nanjing Ship Manufacturing Bureau next door to build ships and steel armored warships in Nanjing as soon as possible.

"Huh~"

Zhu Mei returned to the old house in Zhulin, sat on the sofa and lie down.

She visited various factories for three consecutive days, even if she didn't have to do anything, but she was just wearing a queen's uniform and constantly managing with her company. The officials and workers in the factory were enough to be tired.

So as soon as she returned to the old Zhulin house, she completely relaxed herself.

Zhu Mei had just returned shortly after seeing Zhu Mei coming back, subconsciously thought of posting next to Zhu Mei. Seeing that Zhu Mei was tired, she went to get an ice cream and brought it over and said, "Sister, have a ice cream and cool it down."

”

Zhu Mei touched her head lovingly and said with a smile: "Sister is not hot, she is just tired, and she can't eat cold food today."

"Why can't you eat cold food today?" Zhu Meiwei blinked her big eyes and looked puzzled, "Does her stomach hurt?"

"Yeah." Zhu Mi can only nodded with a slightly blushing face.

Hao Guangming came in with the prepared food, put it on the table, then went to wash his hands, then stood behind the sofa, and imitated the tone of the ancients, saying, "Miss is tired? I'll give you a massage for my husband."

Then he massaged Zhu Ni's temples and the back of her head to help her relax her nerves.

When Hao Guangming first gave Zhu Ma this trick, she was not used to it, but now she is addicted to it and can't extricate herself.

And she knew that in the Ming Dynasty, there were few husbands who were so kind to their wives, so she felt sweet every time she was massaged.

What's more, now she has confirmed that every time she comes into contact with Hao Guangming, her mental and mental fatigue can be relieved faster.

Therefore, even if Hao Guangming doesn't come to give her a massage, she will find opportunities to get tired of it - of course, it's outside her sister's sight.

While relaxing, Zhu Mai couldn't help but think about a lot of things in the Ming Dynasty.

Thinking of her efforts over the past few days, she said, "Mr., you said that I have worked so hard to promote, the court and the people should know my importance to scientific research, industry and craftsmen, right?"

Hao Guangming smiled when he heard this and said, "You are indeed working hard, but your posture is too stiff."

"Um?"

Zhu Mei opened her eyes and looked up.

When Hao Guangming looked down with a smile, she immediately blushed and sat down, and said, "What are you doing? People are talking about serious business!"

Hao Guangming looked confused and innocent, and said, "What I am talking about is serious business--You brought a few ministers to several major factories in person, which was indeed a very clear expression in the Ming Dynasty.

But relying solely on the spread of news naturally, the publicity effect is too small. Didn’t I ask you to set up a publicity department or a news bureau? These two departments are specialized in publicity. How are you doing?”
