Zhu Youde waved his hand and said with a smile: "My greatest ideal is to be a faint king. There is nothing wrong with being a faint king. If I become a faint king, it means that the world will be happy!"
Luo Xian breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Liu Xuan'er!
Zhu Youde didn’t say anything when he saw it!
After walking for a while, I went to work!
After a while, Lu Shengzhi and Tang Huo came to see Zhu Youde. After the two saluted, Tang Huo hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, in accordance with your Majesty's wishes, you have selected three good merchants in Jinling City to participate in the production of shuttles. Each of them charges 30,000 taels. Please, Your Majesty."
Decide!"
Tang Huo was very excited and bought tens of thousands of taels of silver in one go!
"Only three? There are many wealthy businessmen in Jinling. Are they not interested in flying shuttles?"
Your Majesty, one family has 30,000 taels, and three families have 90,000 taels.
This is the point!
Shang Fang Mansion made money!
Tang Huo said: "Your Majesty, these three merchants are carefully selected by me and have clean family backgrounds. Only in this way can the reputation of the royal family be guaranteed, and there is no need to worry about these people acting under the banner of the royal family in the future!"
"You are worried that the reputation of the royal family will be damaged! You are serious!" Zhu Youde said.
He doesn't care about the royal family's reputation, but it's hard to tell the people below.
The reputation of the royal family is the reputation of the country.
Tang Huo said: "Your Majesty, I have received 90,000 taels of silver. Your Majesty, do you have any plans?"
Do you want to hand it in?
Zhu Youde looked down on this little money: "Since Shangfang Mansion has made money, then stay in Shangfang Mansion to expand production and let shuttles spread throughout Daliang as soon as possible."
Your Majesty is really too generous!
90,000 pieces of silver were left to Shang Fang’s Mansion even though he said he didn’t want them!
Tang Huo was very excited, but Zhu Youde looked down on the money, which made him unwilling!
This is the first time he has made so much money at once!
Naturally, I hope Zhu Youde will be surprised.
Zhu Youde thought for a moment: "Since it's about the shuttle, then I'll go to Shang Fang Mansion to have a look!"
Tang Huo quickly led the way and soon arrived at Shang Fang Mansion!
After Zhu Youde and other officials and craftsmen paid their respects, they started to visit!
Now Shang Fang's Mansion has become very large and is divided into several departments. Military manufacturing, gunpowder, textiles, and machinery all have dedicated master craftsmen in charge.
"Your Majesty, please see this is the Shang Fang Mansion Shuttle Factory!"
A group of craftsmen are surrounding a shuttle loom, and they are assembling and debugging it in an orderly manner.
Tang Huo was very proud, but Zhu Youde said as soon as he saw it: "Is everything produced here one by one?"
Tang Huo was stunned and nodded!
How else can we produce it if we don’t produce it one by one? Is the emperor stupid?
The machine debugged smoothly, but after running for a while, it suddenly stopped, and several craftsmen started arguing!
"It must be a problem with the beam, the size is wrong!"
"Is there no problem with the gears?"
Tang Huo was so angry that he wanted to hit someone, but the emperor was here, and something happened to the textile machine!
Tang Huo was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat!
Zhu Youde said: "Don't worry, sir, accidents are normal!"
After waiting for a while, the craftsman replaced the parts of the textile machine, and the textile machine could run normally again!
Tang Huo went to ask about it and came back and reported to Zhu Youde: "Your Majesty, the problem has been solved. It's a matter of size!"
Zhu Youde nodded and took another look. He already knew how Shang Fang Mansion produced textile machines!
Shang Fangfu's model is that a master craftsman is in charge, and after all the parts are produced and assembled, any parts that are inappropriate will be replaced!
No wonder the efficiency is so low that only ten machines can be produced in a month!
Anyone who has entered a factory and tightened screws knows that the correct model of the factory is the assembly line and standard parts.
"Do you know the flowing water method?"
Tang Huo was stunned, "Flowing water method?"
"A craftsman is only responsible for one component, and it flows like running water. The final assembly can be a hundred times more efficient than now!" Zhu Youde laughed: "This is how the firearms used by the New Army are made!"
Tang Huo nodded, "I have heard a long time ago that the production capacity of the weapons inspector is a hundred times greater than before, but I can't figure it out. It turns out that the flow method is used."
"Your Majesty, the same is true in Shang Fang Mansion, but please keep it secret!"
Tang Huo nodded, and Zhu Youde added: "The other thing is to implement standard parts. The rulers of Shang Fang Mansion must be unified and exactly the same, so that the parts of each part of the shuttle will naturally be unified!"
Tang Huo suddenly understood, "Thank you for your Majesty's advice. With your Majesty's advice, shuttle production will definitely increase dramatically!"
Zhu Youde thought for a moment and whispered: "You don't need to care about royal taboos. As long as someone is willing to pay, just sell the machine to them. As for those merchants involved in manufacturing shuttles, you can also have more merchants, as long as you pay!"
Tang Huo's face twitched: "Your Majesty, the reputation of the Tian family..."
"Shut up, I don't care about the reputation of the Tian family. People outside are calling me a fool. I am a fool. How can I not do something that a fool should do? That's it. I only want money!" Zhu Youde said
: "Shang Fang Mansion may provide millions of silver to the inner treasury at the end of the year?"
Tang Huo looked at Zhu Youde with dull eyes. It was only four months until the end of the year!
Let yourself spend one million taels of silver in four months!
You can’t get it out even if you sell yourself!
Your Majesty wants to be a foolish king, and such a foolish king is indeed very expensive.
Tang Huo felt like he was about to cry: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the number of millions is really too big!"
Zhu Youde was unhappy, do you know what you are holding in your hand?
It is the key to the industrial revolution!
In Zhu Youde's view, it is very easy to make millions of silver using a shuttle.
Or Tang Huo doesn't emancipate his mind enough.
But it doesn’t matter, you can train it slowly, this is also the fun part of being an emperor!
Zhu Youde smiled and said: "I have an idea for you. You can buy it at the highest price. Just say that this is a royal item. You secretly took it out to sell it. Since it has the word "royal" in it, it should be sold more expensively!"
"
If you want to use the royal stuff, you have to pay extra!
The corners of Tang Huo's mouth were twisted: "Is this okay?"
"I said it, of course!" Zhu Youde patted Tang Huo on the shoulder: "I am optimistic about you. You will be the father of industry in Daliang in the future. When you die, you can enter Lingyan Pavilion!"
Zhu Youde easily drew a big pancake!
Lingyan Pavilion, that is the greatest honor after the death of a hero. Entering the Lingyan Pavilion to enjoy the royal incense and enshrinement!
But to Zhu Youde, Lingyan Pavilion is just a trap, and any minister or famous official can be put into it.
Lu Shengzhi saw clearly and nodded. Zhu Youde glanced at him and let Tang Huo go!
Then Zhu Youde walked out, and Lu Shengzhi quickly followed. Zhu Youde said: "Why is Lu Qing silent all the time? But you are dissatisfied with me!"
"I don't dare!" Lu Shengzhi said: "I don't know how to make weapons, so I don't know what to say. Since Your Majesty mentioned it, I want to have a personal relationship with Your Majesty."
"you say!"
Lu Shengzhi knelt down: "Please let your majesty spare the Jiangnan wealthy family!"
Zhu Youde suddenly turned his head and stared at Lu Shengzhi for a while, with a flash of murderous intent in his eyes, and then laughed: "Lu Qing, don't worry too much. The royal family has always been friendly to the wealthy families in the south of the Yangtze River. How could I commit such a crime? I'm too worried. I'm too worried."
