"I wonder how many such textile machines can the Ministry of Industry provide?"
As soon as he said that, Liu Yuxuan felt regretful.
As the lucky one selected, there is only one who can cooperate well.
How can I question whether the court has any contact with other cloth industries?
Yo.
Sure enough, Ren Luo, who had been playing with gadgets over there, raised his head coldly.
"The two shopkeepers are really worried. I wonder how many new textile machines can you Liu's cloth industry eat?"
The Ministry of Works is the Ministry of Works of the entire Yunchui Empire, and its manufacturing capabilities are simply beyond the imagination of a small Liu family.
Liu Yuxuan could hear it clearly and sweat suddenly flowed down.
whee.
Liu Wan stood up with a smile to smooth things over.
"Uncle, Dad, Su Lan has thousands of cloth businesses. Since Your Majesty values our Liu family, it is a great honor and great opportunity for the Liu family. The Liu family is doing their best."
The implication is that nothing else needs to be considered, nor should it be considered.
“Yes, yes, yes.”
The two shopkeepers of the Liu family reacted very quickly this time. They didn't dare to look at Ren Luo, who was angry, and nodded repeatedly.
"Mrs. Bo is right. Your Majesty values Liu. We must do our best to ensure the smooth progress of the order. Otherwise, the court will let the court deal with it."
Qin Ming didn't think so much.
Although he was impatient, he still answered sternly.
"Two shopkeepers, this kind of textile machine is complex and expensive. Although the Ministry of Industry is currently producing it with full force, the quantity is still not large, so it is only for your Liu family..."
Speaking of this, he paused.
"What your Majesty means is to consider comprehensively promoting the entire empire in three years."
The two brothers Liu Yuxuan looked at each other.
They understood.
The empire only gave them three years to occupy Su Lan and even the entire Yunchui cloth market.
If they still cannot develop in three years, it means that they cannot help A Dou, and the court will reconsider others.
Furthermore, for the entire empire, it is a good thing to have fierce industry competition.
"Sir Xie, Caomin understands."
"Very good." Qin Ming nodded with satisfaction.
The relevant details of the cooperation will be discussed carefully by both subordinates.
After having dinner at the county magistrate's office, Qin Ming and the others had other things to do, so they left in a hurry.
Soon only the county magistrate Liu Yongchun and Liu Yuxuan were left.
"Mr. Magistrate forgives his crime..."
Although they are father and son or uncle and nephew, Liu Yuxuan and others dare not hold their own identities at all.
He bent down in fear and fear.
"In the afternoon, Caomin's mind was like straw was stuffed with straw. He said the wrong thing in a moment. It doesn't matter if he ruined the Liu family's industry, but it almost ruined the future of the adult..."
"Don't worry, father." Liu Yongchun waved his hand, "I still understand Your Majesty's temperament. As long as the Liu family can complete the order in time in the day after the Liu family is here, Your Majesty will not blame us for this..."
As he spoke, he was a little distracted.
Su Lan City has a large population and has the largest port in Yunchui, which has always been a strong commercial atmosphere.
There are not a thousand or eight hundred families engaged in the cloth industry. The Liu family is just a small fish that is neither up nor down.
Ren Ning chose them for nothing more than the sake of Zhongyong Bo Mansion, and also the intention of cultivating him Liu Yongchun.
After all, although the magistrate of Su Lan will most likely become the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue in the future.
But who can explain it clearly as long as it is a "probability" issue?
For example, Liu Yongchun's ex-girlfriend was the last magistrate of Su Lan. Not to mention the Minister of Revenue, he had not even had the opportunity to go to Beijing. His whole family had already been to prison. I guess he would never be able to get out of this life...
"That's good, that's good."
The Liu Yuxuan and his brothers breathed a sigh of relief.
But soon they frowned again.
It is not easy to make so many clothes on a large scale.
In addition to having a large number of machines and skilled workers, a large amount of raw materials are also needed.
"It seems that we have to send people to buy a large number of cotton, linen, kudzu and silk as soon as possible."
"Yes," Liu Yushu next to him glanced at the calendar on the wall and was also worried, "I don't know if it's time."
As for the money, they are not worried.
Ren Luo from the Grand Tutor's Mansion and Liu Wan from the Zhongyong Bo's Mansion came here in person, both for the sake of building bridges and joining the team, so you can rest assured about money.
But they probably can't help but have the raw materials for making clothes.
"This..." Liu Yongchun's heart suddenly moved.
He smiled slightly and looked up at the direction of the Liu family.
"Don't worry, my father, maybe there's a way."
———
Willow house, flower hall.
It was dark at this time, but the lights in the flower hall were brightly lit and the tea fragrance lingered.
As a civilian house, the flower hall in Liu's house is not as luxurious as their Earl's Mansion or as grand as the Liu Yongchun County Magistrate's Mansion.
But there are still all kinds of Eight Immortal Tables, Ancient Shelfs, etc., showing the foundation of a century-old family.
At this time, someone sat upright inside, which was Liu Wan who had just returned from the county magistrate's mansion.
"Madam," the personal maid arrived in a hurry, "The ancient Shangshou arrived."
oh?
"Shengnan is here?" Liu Wan was overjoyed, "Let her in quickly."
"yes!"
Not long after, a squeak.
The door of the flower hall opened in response to the sound.
Huh ~
A breeze blows by.
Liu Wan subconsciously fitted her clothes on her body.
Although Su Lan is located in the south and is only early October, there is still a cool feeling in the wind.
Accompanied by the cool breeze, a slim figure walked in.
"I have met my wife Gu Shengnan."
Liu Wan smiled and nodded, signaling her to relax.
"I've been here all the way. Thank you very much. Sit down and have a cup of tea."
"Madam Xie."
Gu Shengnan responded, but did not sit down, and still stood respectfully.
Liu Wan was not surprised and turned her head and looked behind her.
However, the maids and guards behind Gu Shengnan were empty-handed, and she couldn't help but feel a little silent.
"Hey, Tiesheng didn't come with you?"
She also prepared thick gifts for the child.
cough.
Gu Shengnan coughed lightly, his face a little strange.
In this era, scholars, peasants, industry and commerce are the most distinctive.
The rich and wealthy ladies have always despised talking about yellow and white things, and are also ashamed to make friends with merchants and barons.
Even if you have to do it, such as meeting a merchant leader who belongs to a caravan, you usually only need to know the profits when you meet and rarely get along with them in a friendly manner.
But the master in front of him seemed to be different.
Liu Wan blinked blankly.
She didn't think so much.
After all, he was born into a businessman and did not have such prejudice.
Even if your identities are very different now, you can even see the most noble woman in the empire from time to time.
For example, Princess Yiguang, the wife of the prince of the Duke of Zhenguo, and the Queen Yingpan and the Queen Mother,
When they got together, they usually discussed not the ladies' favorite makeup, jewelry, marriage, banquet, etc., but where to make money for the empire or save money, make a living for the people, etc.
Therefore, it can be said that Liu Wan did not care about Gu Shengnan's identity as a merchant.
What's more, when Zhongyong Bo's Mansion was in trouble, everyone avoided it. The Gu family caravan can be said to be the only subordinate who did not abandon his master.
Such feelings are so precious.
"Mrs. My subordinates were anxious to go out, so they entrusted the child to the old housekeeper to take care of him."
"If I knew that the wife wanted to meet Tiesheng, my subordinates would definitely bring the child anyway."
"I don't blame you, I don't blame you." Liu Wan waved her hand regretfully.
"You have just given birth to a baby and are already weak. In addition, it is already winter and the road is cold and I have been calling you in a hurry. It is because my wife is not careful."
The two of them had a good conversation with the child, and Gu Shengnan calmed down.
She hesitated for a while.
"Madam, I'm sorry for your crime. I wonder what you are doing when you are rushing to come to Su Lan?"
