Li Er and others were about to ask Li Sheng if his statement of a hundred times and a thousand times was true.
After all, this number is too tempting.
Hundreds of times and a thousand times... For those who ride horses, wouldn't it mean that the money and food in the Tang Dynasty would also increase hundreds of times and a thousand times?
If this number can really be realized, then Datang will be invincible.
However, when Li Sheng saw Li Er and others being so aggressive, he felt bad about himself, and decisively interrupted the spell cast on the spot, "However, this industrial upgrading also has risks... You brothers, please don't get happy so early, okay?
.”
"risky??"
Li Er felt a chill in his heart.
Even though he is the king of a country, the things that can really excite him are becoming less and less in this world, or it can be said that there are almost none, especially those that have nothing to do with the safety of the Tang Dynasty - it is with the safety of the Tang Dynasty
It is irrelevant, rather than something else, that the difference is important.
For Li Er, how the Tang Dynasty will develop in the future is no longer the most important thing - especially for him, the majesty of a country.
For those who are emperors, the security of the country is the top priority. As long as this is not hindered, many other things can be regarded as trivial, or at least second-tier. This is why Li Er has now become a general from Tiance.
It was only after meeting His Majesty the Emperor that he gradually realized new things. But even for Li Er...
The profit of a hundred times and a thousand times is still too huge. This amount is simply... There is a folk proverb: Money moves people's hearts. People who are originally simple and kind sometimes take risks for the sudden huge benefits. Li Er always knows
This kind of thing, but I don't actually have any real feeling in my heart. However, at this moment... Li Er thought of this folk proverb almost instantly.
Could it be that if the cotton spinning industry needs to be upgraded, it will lead to chaos? This...
Everyone was looking confused and worried. At this time, Li Sheng had already begun to ramble and said, "The upgrading of this industry requires constant attempts... For the craftsmen engaged in production research, this is a
The peak needs to be climbed. But for you evil old people...well, you factory owners, this matter is another matter."
"The so-called industrial upgrading, to put it bluntly, is design innovation. And design innovation...on the one hand, it is easy for craftsmen and professors to have their years of hard work wiped out. I think you all know this. But for the owner, this means
Many years of investment will be repaid in one fell swoop...the years of investment are sometimes really quite big..."
"I guess you haven't encountered this part yet, but I can tell you that it's probably equivalent to buying a bunch of machines, only to find that they can't be used, so you have to throw them away. That's how it goes."
"this……"
Li Er frowned. Although it was a bit inconvenient for him to talk as a businessman, he could still understand the truth, but he felt... it always seemed a little weird.
What does it mean to find out that the machine you bought is useless? This thing...
"Sir, you must have bought this machine because it is useful. How can it be like gambling, only to find it useless after buying it? Isn't this a scam?"
The so-called Guanpu is gambling. And what Li Sheng said, to Li Er's ears, it was considered gambling. How could things be like this? Merchants wouldn't do this, right...
Not only Li Er, but also Wei Zheng and others on the side were concerned about this matter and were also listening attentively. Naturally, there were big and small question marks on their faces.
When Li Sheng heard this, he shrugged, feeling secretly happy in his heart.
Very good, these old and middle-aged people are no longer sick. Don't make yourself a political figure in the Tang Dynasty. You can do whatever you want... Then he said, "This is about the essence of industrial upgrading. Its essence, of course, is
Technological innovation, but its essence... To put it bluntly, it is the evolution from making cotton cloth to making machines for making cotton cloth, and then further evolving to the technical skills required to make machines, etc... Industrial innovation is the creation of this part."
"There are actually risks when running a factory normally - for example, it rains heavily one day, and all the cotton purchased by merchants is soaked in water. Although it is not unusable, the quality will be greatly reduced. How many cotton can you buy from this output?
You guys have a lot of money...you are all engaged in cotton fabrics, so you don’t need me to tell you, right?"
When Li Sheng asked this question, Li Er, Wei Zheng and others suddenly felt a little embarrassed on their faces. However, Empress Changsun reacted quickly at this time and quickly showed a smile and sighed, "Isn't it true! Although the world is good, life is not easy.
It’s not easy to make a living in this factory.”
After Empress Changsun's acting skills improved, Li Sheng continued to talk to herself...
Li Er immediately looked at the queen, almost in awe - this reaction was too fast!
She is indeed a good wife, much better at managing expressions than a boss like me...
Li Sheng continued, "The risks of technology research and development are actually the same as the risks of cotton production. There is no essential difference in nature... But there is still a difference. The failure rate of this technological progress is too high. It can be said that
It’s just trial and error by gambling with real money. Only by making enough mistakes can you develop real skills..."
After Li Sheng said this, everyone understood that this matter... does seem to be risky, but it is not what everyone thought, it would lead to chaos in the world, but for merchants... But Li Sheng's
The formulation was so shocking that Wei Zheng and others were also secretly frightened.
This is equivalent to directly counting all the merchants in the world...
According to Li Sheng's thinking, this guy doesn't plan to spend money from the national treasury to upgrade this industry at all, but plans to let wealthy businessmen and wealthy households across the country do it - doing this will bring too many benefits to the court...
...Except for the hundredfold benefit Li Sheng just mentioned.
At the same time, asking the rich to pay for it is equivalent to creating opportunities for poor scholars all over the world to make a fortune - because after all, it is not these young scholars who failed and lost money... This is equivalent to being in the border of the Tang Dynasty again.
An invisible imperial examination was held!
Its significance is so great...
Wei Zheng and others could only look at Li Sheng and sigh, this pattern is indeed much more powerful than the old guys like my brothers...
Mudd, young people are ruthless...
It is conceivable that the implementation of this invisible imperial examination will be opposed by the five surnames and Qiwang - but this time it is not the original five surnames and Qiwang. I am afraid that they are just riding on the east wind of Datang's development of commerce and industry.
The newly formed five surnames and seven new surnames formed by the wealthy households can be imagined... And the difficulty of each of these can be imagined. If Li Sheng hadn't been here...
Wei Zheng and others were almost on the verge of rejecting it directly, believing that such tricks were nonsense. But only in front of Li Sheng...
But they had to seriously consider whether this was really feasible!...
