Chapter 548: There Are Business Opportunities Everywhere
The beauties on the high platform made Lao Zhu very happy. The women were wearing the most beautiful clothes, and it was a Hanfu catwalk.
Zhu Youde felt happy in his heart, but it was a pity that the people around him could not experience this feeling of happiness.
"We should do this kind of activity more often in the future!" Zhu Youde said.
Zhou Chaozong and He Qingfeng looked at each other, and both of them suddenly had the urge to curse.
Doesn’t the emperor know how much it costs to hold such an event?
Zhou Chaozong immediately said: "Your Majesty, the court has spent two million taels of silver on this Oiran election. It would be a waste if it were held every year. The court's money should be used on business."
He Qingfeng said: "I think this is the case. Your Majesty wants to complete the great cause of unification. The imperial court's expenditures are quite large. People's livelihood and military affairs are also indispensable. If the two million taels of silver can be invested in people's livelihood industries, the people can also make profits. It is not wasted on this."
It’s really not necessary!”
You know a hammer!
Zhu Youde was speechless, but he had to answer: "You think I am organizing this kind of event to select folk beauties to enrich the harem!"
"I don't dare!"
Zhou Chaozong and He Qingfeng quickly denied it. Of course they thought so, otherwise?
Zhu Youde smiled and said: "Why pretend not to know? I know that all the officials in the court and the common people think that I hold this kind of activity to select women from the folk to enrich the harem. How can you not know about my lustful name!"
Zhou Chaozong said quickly: "I have no such intention!"
"But that's what I mean!"
He Qingfeng said: "Your Majesty, as the emperor, it is not a big deal to choose folk women to enrich the harem. It is also to show that the royal family and the common people are one family. What I mean is that such activities are too expensive and the money in the court is completely insufficient."
, don’t engage in such activities in the future.”
Zhu Youde laughed: "He Qingfeng, you can still speak, but what you say is wrong. On the contrary, we should do more activities like this!"
"Why does Your Majesty say that?" He Qingfeng asked.
Zhu Youde smiled and said: "You can see that the clothes on these beautiful women are made of exquisite materials and exquisite workmanship, so they are very valuable!"
“Really wasteful!”
Lao Zhu said: "Our country is getting richer and richer, and shuttle workshops are now spreading. In the future, we will have a sea of fabrics. Have you ever thought about how to digest these fabrics? What if the people don't use them and the factory's fabrics can't be sold.
?”
"The common people in the capital can support their families by working in factories. It can be seen that the purpose of factories is to stabilize the people. Once the people are stable, the next step is to make them rich, so the factories cannot fail. The textile industry of our dynasty is treated as an independent industry!"
Zhu Youde said: "Therefore, the people should encourage the consumption of cloth and make the price of cloth low. Only in this way can the people of the world have clothes to wear. There is no shortage of people in our country who are skilled in craftsmanship. You and others are all talented people with quick thinking. A factory can
A thousand people working can support a thousand households. This is true for the shuttle factory, but what about the garment factory?"
"Business here is like an iron chain interlocking with each other. People can make a profit by growing cotton and selling it to factories. The factories weave, dye, make clothes, and transport. This is the industrial chain!"
"Sir, how many people can be accommodated in this way?" Zhu Youde laughed.
After all, Zhou Chaozong was a businessman and he was the first to react: "In this way, our dynasty will be able to stabilize, the national power will increase dramatically, one industry can support tens of millions of people, the people will no longer have to rely on farming for food, and business tax revenue will also increase dramatically.
!”
Zhu Youde smiled and said: "That's it. How to let the people know the beauty of clothes and everyone is looking for them is to rely on this kind of activity. The clothes on women are made of exquisite materials and are beautiful. Who can not love beauty?"
"
Zongdao of the Zhou Dynasty said: "Your Majesty, the things used by women are still expensive. A piece of moral integrity in the capital, if it comes from the hands of the inner palace craftsmen, can already reach a thousand taels of silver. In the face of huge profits, the aristocratic family must bow to your majesty!"
I'm going to tell you the real thing, so don't talk to me about moral integrity at this time!
Zhu Youde said: "In the future, you are not allowed to use the word moral integrity. Let's change it. From now on, those things will be called underwear."
Zhou Chaozong said: "The people are used to it and it's not easy to change!"
"Regulations, court regulations!" Lao Zhu was speechless. Zhou Chaozong just wanted to disgust himself.
Underwear is called moral integrity, which was invented by Wang Zhonghou and has nothing to do with me.
But in the eyes of outsiders, Wang Zhonghou is Lao Zhu.
He Qingfeng reacted, "In this case, this kind of activity should be vigorously promoted, not for the purpose of talent show, but to promote Chinese clothing!"
"That's what I mean!" Zhu Youde said with a smile: "Beauty women in gorgeous clothes, this is the national color of our heaven. I want to create a prosperous age. How can it be a prosperous age without national color? Hangzhou has been a land of beauties since ancient times. Even if I am lustful, I can't have them all.
It’s over!”
"This time I invest a million dollars, women wear gorgeous clothes, and the world is gorgeous. There are always smart people who will take action. Business opportunities are everywhere!"
Even if the people didn't find out, wouldn't Zhu Youde tell the people that you can do this?
He is the great man of this era, the force that drives the advancement of the times. In the face of industry, all feudal agriculture is crushed rubbish.
Zhou Chaozong said quickly: "Your Majesty, rewards should be set up to encourage outstanding people to take up the garment-making industry."
"Can!"
"I ask Your Majesty to name the clothes of the outstanding ones!"
"It's called Huafu. In our land of China, the people of the Central Government should be proud of Huafu. I will purchase beautiful clothes for the harem first. I have decreed that those who open clothing workshops will be tax-free for three years."
If we don’t develop the garment industry, what will happen if the fabric market collapses? Lao Zhu will cry then!
It has been a year since Shang Fangfu developed the flying shuttle. The textile industry has finally made some achievements. At this time, it must be carefully guarded.
Cultivating an industry is like raising a child. If you don't take good care of it in the early stage, will you still get good results in the future?
Zhu Youde added: "For workshops with thousands of looms, the court will give incentives and even place orders directly. The court also needs to establish relevant schools to teach people textiles, embroidery and other crafts. It should hire famous teachers and train talents. Such things
, you can’t expect the people to do it, you are important ministers of the country, and the country should provide the people with these basic things!”
"I want to change the world's atmosphere, starting from now on!"
Zhu Youde stood up. When the people found out, they knelt down one after another!
"I want to create a dynasty that lasts for ten thousand years with you. Anyone who dares to stop it will be the mortal enemy of our dynasty!"
Zhou Chaozong and others quickly knelt down and praised Lao Zhu one after another.
Lao Zhu waved to the people, showing eight teeth, and smiled very happily. At this time, he seemed to see Liu Xuan'er in the crowd, but it just passed by for a flash, and Zhu Youde thought he was being deceived.
The sea of people was huge, and if he didn't pay attention, the person had disappeared.
The activity continued and Lao Zhu returned to his seat. Zhu Youde and Wang Zhonghou asked: "Is there any news about Liu Xuan'er?"
