Chapter 107 Inexplicable regret of marriage!

Guo An looked at the group of enthusiastic village elders in front of him and said helplessly: "Everyone, there are only one hundred and ten households in one village, but now there are twenty-five or even thirty-five households who want to invite you.

Elders came to witness and buy textile machines.

Moreover, they are all poor households whose families do not have the money to buy and need to wait for the cotton in the fields to weave cotton cloth to pay for it.

Have you ever thought about it, in addition to these poor households, there are also a number of wealthy households who directly use money to purchase textile machines from textile shops.

As a result, half of the people in your respective villages have purchased textile machines.

In this way, the textile machine will not be as profitable as we said!

I wonder if you have ever considered this. In this case, are the people in each township buying it just because they are hot-headed?

You know, a set of textile looms costs two hundred and fifty-five cents, which is not a small amount of money even for you villagers!"

"this……"

Hearing this, all the village elders couldn't help but look thoughtful.

More than two hundred and fifty pennies are definitely not a small amount of money. If it is really as Guo Changshi said, it is not very profitable, wouldn't it be useless to put so many wooden shelves at home?

Guo An continued: "It is precisely because we are worried that this will happen that we ask all the village elders to bear witness. If necessary, we can persuade the people in the village and explain the matter clearly to them.

Don’t let all the people blindly think that they can make huge profits and make a lot of money just by buying textile machines because of my official words!”

"Thank you Guo Changshi for explaining this matter clearly!"

"Guo Changshi Gaoyi, if it weren't for Guo Changshi, Cao Min and others would have almost made a big mistake!"

After all the village elders thought about it, they couldn't help but feel frightened. They looked at Guo An with expressions full of gratitude.

"However, if your family has a lot of land and conditions permit, we also recommend that everyone buy a set of textile machines." Guo An changed his tone and said again.

"kindness?"

All the village elders were stunned on the spot, a little confused.

"Dear fellow villagers, the people of Wanping County have cultivated two thousand hectares of fields a few months ago. Next year, your families will plant another half an acre of cotton!"

Guo An explained with a chuckle, "With the textile machine, as long as half an acre of cotton can be harvested, you will not lose money when buying the textile machine."

"What Guo Changshi said makes sense!"

The faces of the village elders returned to smiles again, and their cloudy eyes shone with hope.

Those two thousand hectares of bare fields, with even a crop of weeds and vegetables growing there, were the reason why ordinary people like them dared to buy textile machines.

"Well, in the next few days, the Japanese officials will order the Gongzheng Institute to manufacture textile looms for you as soon as possible. As for the purchase and sale deeds, they will be fully prepared for you.

You all should go back first and explain the situation clearly to the people in each village, so as to avoid any changes in the future and the neighbors complaining about each other, which will affect the feelings between your neighbors."

Seeing that these village elders understood what he meant, Guo An began to prepare to see off the guests.

At this moment, Zhu Di's face had already turned black into briquettes. Guo An didn't want to be criticized by Zhu Di in front of so many village elders.

"Please rest assured, Guo Changshi, Cao Min and others will definitely explain the pros and cons to the people in the village!"

"Thank you Guo Changshi for speaking out. Cao Min and others say goodbye!"

"Reporting to His Highness King Yan, the common people must retreat!"

…

After sending away all the village elders with a kind look on his face, Zhu Di couldn't bear it any longer.

"Everyone in my hometown comes to my door in person and wants to buy textile machines. Why do you want to stop me like this?"

"Your Highness Mingjian, I must stop this matter!"

Guo An said helplessly: "Two hundred and fifty-five cents may not be enough for His Highness to eat a meal. For those ordinary people, they may not be able to save so much money in a year. Naturally, I have to ask them to seriously consider it.

As for those village elders, they are also our own people, so we can’t just stand by and deceive them!”

"One of our own?"

Hearing this, Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, and then moved Guo An's shoulders.

"Just to tell you, one of my own, if you lose some money, just lose some money!"

"Your Highness, how can you lose?"

Guo An's expression changed and he said hurriedly: "The money earned from the textile machine is still a fraction of the money earned by the textile machine. We must not lose it!"

Zhu Di said angrily: "You are a sinister thing. You have already driven away all the money that came to your door. What else do you want to do if you don't lose money? Is it possible that you still want to steal our money?"

Only then did Guo An understand what Zhu Di meant. He glanced at Zhu Di strangely and said, "Your Highness, don't worry, the people who should buy it will never stop buying it because of Wei Chen's words."

"You mean there will be so many people who want to buy textile machines?" Zhu Di asked doubtfully.

Guo An looked confident: "Your Highness, don't worry, it's just a lot more!"

Zhu Di said: "Why?"

Guo An looked at Zhu Di speechlessly, "Your Highness, just in Wanping County there are so many people coming to buy textile looms, so naturally Daxing County next door will not be able to pull them down.

Moreover, there are five counties and four states in the surrounding area!"

Zhu Di was overjoyed, "Can Gongzheng's craftsmen do it?"

Guo Andao said: "Your Highness, if we have to bring out so many looms at once, the workmanship will not be enough!"

Zhu Di said: "Then recruit craftsmen!"

Guo An said helplessly: "Your Highness, now is the season for picking cotton. After picking the cotton, it will be time for the autumn harvest. We cannot delay the autumn harvest!"

"Fuck..."

Zhu Di looked helpless.

Then, he asked Guo An: "What can you do?"

Guo An thought for a moment and said, "Your Highness, we can actually keep up with the sales slowly. Currently, there are fifty craftsmen in the Gongzheng Institute, who can produce a hundred sets of textile looms every day..."

"A hundred sets?"

Before Guo An could finish speaking, Zhu Di's eyes widened with surprise on his face.

Guo An nodded slightly, "Exactly. If the current wood hadn't been insufficient, there could have been more!"

Zhu Di asked again: "Are you sure it's a hundred sets?"

Guo Andao: "How dare I deceive His Highness on this matter!"

Zhu Di still didn't believe it, "How did they make it so fast?"

After saying that, Zhu Di's expression condensed and he said directly: "Let's go and take a look!"

Guo An had no choice but to keep up.

Zhu Fu, Xia Si and others also followed with curiosity on their faces.

Fortunately, the textile machine workshop courtyard was not very far from Prince Yan's Mansion. Soon, Zhu Di and Guo An entered a very lively mansion.

After entering, Zhu Di was surprised to find that the craftsmen in each room were just repeatedly making one object.

Since they have been making one object, these craftsmen are also very skilled in making it.

After just looking around, Zhu Di's expression became serious.

He could naturally see that these craftsmen were making different parts of the textile machine.

"Guo Qing, are you sure that the objects made by these carpenters can be installed?"

"Don't worry, Your Highness, the sizes of these items are all stuck. As long as there are no deviations in the sizes made by these craftsmen, they can definitely be assembled.

Moreover, the combined textile machines and cotton elastomer machines are all exactly the same size!"

Regarding Zhu Di's worries, Guo An was very confident.

"If your Highness is worried, you can go to the specially assembled backyard and take a look!"

"Walk!"

Hearing this, Zhu Di was naturally very happy.

After following Guo An to the backyard of the workshop, Zhu Di saw that there were about a dozen craftsmen in the backyard who were also skillfully assembling various wooden parts made by the craftsmen in the front yard.

Moreover, the assembly speed is very fast.

In just the blink of an eye, these craftsmen can assemble a cotton elastic machine, a textile machine, or a three-spindle spinning wheel.

"The speed of these craftsmen's work is truly amazing."

Zhu Di praised him with bright eyes, and then asked curiously, "Who came up with this method? We will reward you heavily!"

Guo An quickly replied: "Your Highness, you are the humble minister."

"What does Guo Qing think?"
