After talking about the example of the old farmer, Li Sheng changed the subject and then mentioned the key point.
"The same goes for papermaking. If an ordinary craftsman is responsible for several kilograms of paper per person, then the production capacity will naturally not be comparable to the countless industries in the hands of these aristocratic families."
"But if you can walk around and let Li Er learn this trick... then things will be much simpler."
"This workshop cannot be built in one place with all processes like before, but..."
Then Li Sheng talked to Li Er and others about the affairs of the branch.
In fact, the principle of modern industry is very simple.
One worker can make five hundred needles per day with one coil of wire, and five or six workers can only make a few thousand.
But these five or six people worked together and could make tens of thousands of needles during the industrial revolution.
Because a set of processes requires one person to master all the different links, and he has to keep an eye on all directions and listen to all directions when working. How can the efficiency be high? But it is different when the labor is divided.
…
As Li Sheng introduces the concept of "big industry", the root of modern society, one by one,
Li Er and others' faces gradually lost expression, and everyone fell into a state of dumbfoundedness.
Wei Zheng and others continued to inhale.
High...too high!
The young master's hand... is simply a blessing in disguise.
What a show!
At first glance, the conclusion seems outrageous. The argument is very concise, but the principle is so ordinary.
After Wei Zheng heard this, he smiled bitterly and said, "Young Master is indeed a great talent in the world. I am ashamed of myself... I am ashamed of myself!"
"We, as long as we have the talent of a young master, will not be able to do so today..."
Li Sheng laughed when he heard this, "You guys are so talkative! If we hadn't had so many drinks together, and your tone, I would have thought you were the emperors of the Tang Dynasty...
…Stop talking, eat food and drink!”
"If you can get this trick from Li Er, I can guarantee you. Just build a factory with a few acres of land on the outskirts of Chang'an City, and the production capacity will reach the level of Cui's in Qinghe, or even double it!"
"At that time, if others like to raise prices, then let others raise the price. You just want to be cheap and ship in large quantities."
"The Cui family of Qinghe will either cut off the meat at a low price and give away the stock, or go to the Ganlu Hall to kowtow and beg for mercy. When the time comes...hehe, Li Er can't just do whatever he wants?"
…
During the banquet.
Because Ying'er was away, Li Sheng occasionally had to help in the kitchen.
Just entertaining guests, that's it.
After saying this, Mian'er happened to be shouting, so Li Sheng went to the kitchen.
"Everyone, wait a moment, we'll be here soon."
Then left the front hall.
When Li Sheng left, Li Er's expression became almost visibly excited.
"Have you seen it? Sheng'er is simply my Qilin'er, Li Shimin!"
"This talent is unparalleled in the world!"
Li Er was very excited.
This time when I passed by this small village outside Youzhou City, I thought I was going to die.
As a result, he unexpectedly found his long-lost child.
Not counting finding a child, this child is so outstanding and talented!
Even the age-old problem of becoming the leader of an aristocratic family is as easy to solve as a piece of cake for Sheng'er!
Li Er,
How lucky you are!
At this time, Li Er smiled and looked at the people next to him, only to find...
Except for Wei Zheng who was smiling and thinking, the rest of Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling and others all looked disheveled and cautious...
Just like the mice on the roadside are afraid of being stared at by cats or snakes.
Li Er frowned: "Why do you look like this? Are there any flaws in my son's plans?"
"No, no, Your Majesty! This is absolutely not the case!"
"Then...what are you dissatisfied with my son?"
This time, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, and Li Jing stood up in shock.
"Wei Chen doesn't dare!"
"Wei Chen doesn't dare!"
"Wei Chen must not dare!"
"Then you... forget it, I've been under a lot of pressure these days, and I guess you're exhausted too. Now that the problem is solved, just eat and drink with peace of mind."
Li Er shook his head.
They had no idea that Du Ruhui and the others were actually afraid.
This Your Highness...
terrible!
His move could cut off the Qinghe Cui family's financial resources.
Without making a sound or using a single soldier, they directly uprooted the Cui family in Qinghe!
How terrible!
"What's wrong, do you think Sheng'er's plan is bad?"
"Why do you all look so bad?"
"If you have any comments, can you raise them?"
Li Er asked strangely.
Du Ruhui and others just wanted to cry without tears.
There are still opinions, ghosts have opinions!
We are all so frightened by His Highness, how dare you have any objection!
This group of people are also ministers of the current dynasty, and they don’t have many relatives who drink soup with them.
After listening to Li Sheng's words, everyone felt chills on the back of their necks.
I have to ask immediately when I get home if there are any dirty hands under my hands.
Once discovered, deal with it immediately!
Otherwise... what if His Highness targets him in the future? This guy... is more scheming than Zhang Liang!
As for the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes...
They can only mourn silently,
While His Highness hasn't returned to Chang'an yet, try your best to spend two days dancing.
Anyway, we only have a few days left, so I suggest you eat whatever you want...
"Your Majesty, I have no objection!"
"I absolutely have no objection!"
Li Er smiled and continued to taste the delicious hot pot...
My heart was simply filled with joy.
You said that the Cui family of Qinghe must cause trouble. What can't they do?
It's okay now, I offended my Qilin'er.
If nothing happens to you, even God will look down upon you!
Li Er felt warm in his heart when he thought of how he had defied all opinions and resolutely executed Cui Zhengde.
Fortunately, I always have this creed in my heart——
If your son is bullied, the father must get him back!
Otherwise, would you be embarrassed to be a father?
When ministers and common people are bullied, the emperor must also deal with it.
Otherwise, ghosts will mess with you?
Li was very lucky, really lucky, that he stuck to his principles when faced with pressure.
Mrs. Cui of Qinghe, and her children,
He issued an edict of death and gave both parties a deserved explanation!
Punishing good and punishing evil will surely bring good rewards!
Li Er suddenly discovered,
Ma De, why did you come to Sheng'er's place once? Not only did the food and drink taste better than in the palace, but a big problem was solved.
How much has your experience of being an emperor improved?
After thinking about it, he figured it out.
Well, actually it doesn’t mean that good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be rewarded with evil. It’s just that my child is much more powerful than those from aristocratic families...
"Actually, let's be honest."
Li Sheng returned to the table in the front hall, took a sip of cold drink and said.
"Although Confucianism has a small structure, it is true that it is good to govern a big country and cook small things."
"Being an emperor usually involves three things: cutting down vassals, people's livelihood, and foreign enemies."
"Above the court, there are countless affairs, and in the final analysis, they are just these few things. As long as those who have done these three things well, no matter how much they spend on other things, I have never seen a person who is not rated well in the history books.
