Chapter 824: Benefiting the people, the emperor is in business?
As time passed, under the stunning eyes of everyone, long clothes were made with the operation of the oblique loom.
Although it is not as good as those precious brocade clothes, it can still be satisfied with the body insulation.
On the heavy chair of Zhuhong, the cabinet ministers were stunned and said nothing for a long time.
Qin Yun glanced at Wei Zheng and felt amused.
"My dear friends, this loom is all due to Muci. From now on, the Great Xia will no longer be worn without warmth, and the border guards will no longer be troubled by winter clothes."
"What do you think?"
Mu Ci looked at him suddenly, her beautiful eyes puzzled, why did she give all the credit to her?
This slanted loom was originally the invention of Your Majesty, and it is a merit that has been famous all over the world!
Gu Chuntang came back to his senses and said excitedly: "The achievements are beyond your reach!"
"I thank Mrs. Mu for the sake of the people!"
"That's right, I'll thank Mrs. Mu for this creation, and the celebrity is in history!"
The cabinet ministers were all very smart and instantly understood the value of this thing.
More and more ministers thanked him, and Wei Zheng took a deep breath and stood up and said, "Mrs. Mu, I have received education. This thing can benefit the people in the morning."
"I am willing to accept the loss by betting, and I will lead the horse and kick it for you in the future!"
Mu Ci was startled and lost her lust after Qin Yun: "No, no, no..."
"Sir, this is not my creation, this is Your Majesty's idea..."
The ministers opened their eyes wide and looked at Qin Yun in shock.
"Your Majesty, is this your invention?"
They were full of shock and were stunned from the bottom. Qin Yun brought them too many surprises.
He smiled slightly: "It's half of my inventions, both of me and Mu Ci."
"I just proposed a plan."
Wei Zheng and others were stunned and couldn't say a word. When did Your Majesty still understand carpentry?
Someone reacted and shouted: "Your Majesty is wise and has a talent that is unparalleled. We thank Your Majesty for the people of Liming!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuxiang and others pursed their lips and smiled, happy for Qin Yun.
He waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't flatter me anymore."
"I want to announce something."
"The tilted loom is very fast and convenient, so I plan to make too many cotton coats to send them to the army to meet domestic demand."
"Yes, satisfying the army is the most important thing! We have no objection!" Zhao Heng, the Minister of War, said excitedly.
Qin Yun said again: "I still plan to sell this kind of clothes. Although it is a little rough, it is a blessing for the common people."
"Suppress prices to the lowest level, both the court and the people will benefit."
He said it lightly, but it was like thunder and nine thunders, making the place silent.
The face of the cabinet minister gradually changed.
The emperor is doing business?
"no!"
"Absolutely not possible!"
"Your Majesty, you are the emperor, how can you go on business?" Wei Zheng glared at him and looked at something unhappy, and he was about to start squirting directly!
But this time there are many ministers standing with him.
Even Gu Chuntang and others had strange expressions. His Majesty's idea was too wild.
"Your Majesty, have you ever thought about how the people in the world miss you?"
"How will history books record this generation of imperial court?"
"Absolutely not possible!"
Everyone spoke with a tough attitude.
Qin Yun knew they would do this and tentatively said: "It's not okay to make money? It's not okay to have a wealthy treasury?"
"No!" Everyone expressed their opinions.
Qin Yun rubbed his temples, his face slightly difficult to deal with.
It is really too difficult to let them accept this idea. But the convenience of the tilted loom brings cost reduction. Official sales of clothes, taking care of the poor, and making some money, why not?
At this time, Su Yan walked out.
He gave a bow: "Your Majesty, sirs, why not let the Trade Department do this on your behalf?"
Look at each other in a row.
"You?" The cabinet ministers' eyes flashed, and they didn't trust Su Yan very much.
Qin Yun's eyes lit up, it's feasible!
The Trade Department is the official, and there is no need to come forward on its own.
Su Yan glanced at Qin Yun with beautiful eyes and then said, "Your Majesty cannot do business, but I am a woman. It doesn't matter, right?"
"And as the lower part of the court, the Commerce and Trade Department is authoritative and trusts the people."
The ministers were still unwilling to look at the Bluestone Square.
He snorted: "Didn't the Trade Department represent Your Majesty? This is to cover up the bell. At that time, the people in the world will still blame Your Majesty."
"You know, you can be a businessman with a low level!"
"Since ancient times, this has not been spoken, and our ancestors would not agree!"
"And Lord Su, you are not only a female official, but also your Majesty's concubine. Is it not appropriate to go to business?"
The ministers were already very polite.
Su Yan was embarrassed, and she couldn't answer after saying this.
He looked at Qin Yun at a loss.
Qin Yun stood up at this moment, not being angry, because it was indeed difficult to recognize this matter, and the ministers were not wrong.
But this matter is inevitable, and he will not compromise with anyone! Benefiting the country and the people is far higher than the so-called inferior ones!
"Dear friends, do you know how many people in Daxia cannot wear clothes?"
"Do you know how much money a piece of clothing in the cloth shop requires?" he paved slowly, asking slowly.
Hearing this, the ministers were stunned, and then looked at him silent.
They really don't know about these things.
Qin Yun waved his dragon robe and pointed outside Xuanwu Gate. His voice suddenly rose: "I'm here to tell you that at least half of the people in Daxia are not warm to wear!"
"And a brand new robe with cloth costs a few taels of silver."
"A few taels of silver means that many people's family can survive in a quarter!"
"Is the people affordable?"
"Let me ask, people and children should not wear one piece of clothing for ten years? Even if they are trembling in the middle of winter, can they have a way?"
"You have enough food and clothing, so of course you can ignore the lives and death of others! The imperial capital is a prosperous place, so naturally there is no tragic secular scene!"
"But I can't!"
"Because they are all my people!" Qin Yun shouted loudly, his voice and emotion were both lush, and at that moment he seemed extremely majestic!
Everyone trembled, deafening, and was completely infected!
It turns out that His Majesty wants to sell low-cost clothes, and he has such kind considerations!
The cabinet ministers were ashamed, bowed their heads and were silent, and blushed.
On the side, Xiao Yuxiang and others were fascinated by the sound of their eyes, and their beautiful eyes turned red. It turned out that so many people could not afford to wear clothes.
The scene of trembling in the middle of winter makes them feel unbearable!
All of them were the first to support Qin Yun, and said together: "Your Majesty, my sisters are willing to donate clothes and money!"
Seeing this, the people who opposed it just now felt even more ashamed.
Wei Zheng stood up and frowned and said, "Your Majesty, it is a good thing to benefit the people, and the old ministers support it."
"But can we hand over the technology and the oblique loom, let the merchant do it and pay taxes?"
Qin Yun sneered: "Wei Aiqing, businessmen are pursuing profits. Do you think they will sell them at a low price? Keep the original intention of benefiting the people?"
"If I step back ten thousand steps, if I intervene and let them hit the lowest price, will the merchants in the world be unhappy and judge me?"
"At that time, there will be another huge public opinion storm!"
