Chapter 1047 Songjiang Prefecture should focus on development (2)

(1047)

【Today's second update is delivered!】

Zhang Zhun slowly encouraged, "Old Liu, don't be afraid! There are too many people! There are too many people and it's a big force! There are no people, so where can we produce cotton, silk, silk, and satin? The key is that these people must be managed well. To be precise, we must formulate relevant regulations to prevent problems before they happen. As long as we do it ourselves, we don't need to worry."

"In fact, even if we have clear regulations on how many people can not exceed the number of employees, what's the use? As long as there is profit and as long as there is a need, aren't they secretly recruiting employees? The previous imperial court stipulated how many people can hire? At most, no more than eight people! In fact, there is a large factory with more than 800 people in Songjiang Prefecture!"

"Instead of doing things secretly and causing more trouble, causing corruption, and causing officials to sink, it is better to put them on the table and discuss and solve them. There is no problem in this world that cannot be solved. The key is whether we want to solve it."

Liu Guangxin hurriedly said, "Please give me advice from the Governor."

Zhang Zhun nodded and said slowly: "You find a few officials to come and I will stay with you for a few days, and I will tell you in detail. Also, all the officials at or above the county level of Songjiang Prefecture will be gathered, and I have something to say to them."

Liu Guangxin was overjoyed and hurriedly agreed to go, turning around to find someone.

Zhang Zhun's way of doing things is really considerate. He not only raised questions, but also attached answers to the questions, so that his subordinates would not be in a difficult situation. Only Zhang Zhun had such power and courage to completely overturn the previous regulations and reshuffle them. He estimated that Zhang Zhun wanted to personally endorse the development of Songjiang Prefecture.

Soon after, a total of ten swords and pen officials arrived. Shortly after their arrival, the prefect of Songjiang Prefecture and other prefecture-level officials, as well as the main officials of each county, all arrived. They all looked at Zhang Zhun. Zhang Zhun's approach in Suzhou Prefecture attracted many people's favors. If he gave Songjiang Prefecture some benefits, it would be even better.

"I know that everyone present has some concerns about the number of workers employed, and they think that it will cause unforeseen events. I can understand everyone's concerns. Indeed, a stable social environment and a good public security environment are what we need. Especially after the war is over, everyone needs a safe and stable environment."

"However, I must tell you that the development of the textile industry must be fully supported. A considerable part of the wealth of the new empire must come from Songjiang Prefecture. It can be said that without Songjiang Prefecture, there would be no new empire. I know the difficulties of everyone, so I, Zhang Zhun, endorsed the letter here. I allow the maximum number of employees to be hired in handicrafts in all parts of the country, including Songjiang Prefecture, to more than 10,000!"

God!

The maximum number of employees is 10,000!

The Governor is really brave to do and speak!

When they heard Zhang Zhun's words, the officials of Songjiang Prefecture present couldn't help but change their faces slightly. It turned out that the large handicraft workshop with only 800 people was already quite dangerous. Unexpectedly, Zhang Zhun had just arrived, but in one breath, he raised the maximum number of employees to 10,000. Well, to be precise, more than 10,000 people. In other words, as long as you can afford it, 100,000 or even one million can be!

"Our consistent policy is to firmly bind the people to their own land, farm peacefully and not do anything else. This is the safest thing. For example, the large number of refugees that have emerged before may bring great concern to everyone. It is precisely because of the emergence of a large number of refugees that the chaos in Shaanxi has become increasingly fierce. You may be worried that Songjiang Prefecture will follow in the footsteps."

"I can understand all of these. However, the development of society and the development of the economy determine that our people cannot be bound to the land forever. The same area of ​​land requires less and less labor force. In other words, it will definitely produce surplus labor. They must be mobilized and must be able to obtain additional income."

"As the saying goes, Dayu should be used to control floods, rather than blocking them. Simply encircling the people on the land and constantly suppressing them will only make the bound force grow bigger and bigger, eventually collapse and burn the body. The greater the suppression, the greater the strength of the counterattack. The scientific approach should be to slowly release this force through appropriate channels."

"How to release this power? It is to let them work in the city. In the future, economic development requires a large number of products. These products cannot be produced directly on the fields. We need a large number of workshops and a large number of employees. Only by combining the two can a large number of goods be produced. Therefore, limiting the number of employees is not feasible."

"Of course, as foreign employees, they have many household registrations, and may not be in Songjiang Prefecture at all. Their families may not be in Songjiang Prefecture. They may have no fixed place in Songjiang Prefecture and wander around. This will definitely cause many problems. They may form cliques, fight, or even commit crimes, theft, robbery, murder, kidnapping, fraud and other criminal activities. However, we cannot kill the development of Songjiang Prefecture just because of these possibilities."

Zhang Zhun knew that some of the officials at all levels below were relatively slow and could not make a turn for a while. Moreover, the better the ethics, the more difficult it was to change the concept. Therefore, he was quite patient and gave them detailed explanations. There was no way, and in the future, the various affairs of Songjiang Prefecture would have to be handled by them.

"In order to ensure the safety of the local area and prevent unpredictable events, I will send a battalion of the Tiger Army Army to temporarily station in Jinshan Guards. With the army there, there is no big deal. However, I think this is completely unfair!"

"Now, I will tell you some of my summary of my experience. As long as you master the relevant key points, you don't need to be afraid of hiring workers. Before my lecture begins, if you have any questions, you can raise your hand to ask questions."

Zhang Zhun slowly ended his opening remarks.

No one raised his hand.

Everyone is waiting for Zhang Zhun’s following.

In fact, even if there is a problem, there is no need to ask. Because Zhang Zhun's tone is already very clear. He personally endorsed the letter for the development of Songjiang Prefecture. He also specially dispatched troops to Jinshan Guard to protect the development of Songjiang Prefecture. With such an attitude, if they raise objections, they will really be too ignorant of the world.

“Is there no problem?”

"Okay! Let's start now!"

After glanced at everyone, Zhang Zhun said slowly.

He started from the hiring of the manual workshop and continued to the later "Labor Law", which simply and bluntly described the various rules of the industrial society in later generations. If Songjiang Prefecture continues to develop at this current speed, it will inevitably be the most advanced industrial area of ​​the Hu Ben Empire in the future. Perhaps, it may also be the first area where the industrial revolution broke out.

Of course, four hundred years of knowledge is not a fool. No matter what kind of knowledge is, Zhang Zhun can easily draw it. From time to time, Zhang Zhun can also give a few vivid examples to deepen everyone's understanding. Even officials at all levels of Songjiang Prefecture who have never seen the industrial revolution cannot help but show their longing eyes under Zhang Zhun's vivid description.

Liu Guangxin listened carefully next to him, and only admired him. I really don’t know where to learn the knowledge of the Governor. He thought he was also a knowledgeable and talented person, and he had never read a few books. However, compared with the Governor, he was really too ashamed. At least, he never knew that there was such knowledge in this world.

If Liu Guangxin's reaction was just admiration, then the reactions of other officials were quite puzzled and a little scared. While they were puzzled by Zhang Zhun's knowledge, they also expressed fear of Zhang Zhun's origin. Could it be that Zhang Zhun is really a reincarnation of a god? Otherwise, how could he know so much knowledge that others don't know at all?

It should be noted that except for the elderly from the Hu Ben Army, the other officials were well-read in poetry and books. In terms of knowledge, they would definitely not be missing. In a rich place like Songjiang Prefecture, at least those who could come here to serve as major officials were from Shujishi. However, they didn't know where Zhang Zhun's knowledge came from.

If Zhang Zhun was just an ordinary person, Liu Guangxin and the others would definitely find ways to get his secrets out. This knowledge really made them very curious and even jealous. Some of the knowledge, if they were mastered by themselves alone, would undoubtedly gain rich benefits. However, it is a pity that they do not have such courage. With Zhang Zhun's current identity, who dares to ask Zhang Zhun about these secrets?

Of course, Zhang Zhun would not reveal his secret. He also believed that no one would dare to ask his secret. He could see the people in front of him and was very curious, but they did not dare to ask. Zhang Zhun was sure that now he had countless mysterious apertures in advance, and no one had the courage to offend his authority.

Zhang Zhun believed that with his guidance, the new empire had at least 350 years of detours in the development of cotton textile industry. Under his guidance, Songjiang Prefecture had a five-year plan to become the world's largest textile industry center. Well, even before, he was already the largest. At that time, the British textile industry had not yet started.

What Zhang Zhun wanted to seize was this advantage. He stood in front of the British or others and set off a frenzy of the industrial revolution. As long as the social economy continues to develop, as long as the outside world's desire for goods is very vigorous, the industrial revolution will naturally break out.

It would be great if you could taste the results of the industrial revolution or even the electrification revolution in your lifetime. To be honest, sometimes, Zhang Zhun feels that it is really not used to the days without electricity!

...

"Master, you're back."

Sun Weina welcomed Zhang Zhun's return at Fotong Temple.

As a woman for the first time, she seemed not used to such roles. When she saw Zhang Zhun come back, her face turned red suddenly, as if she had just drunk a lot of strong wine. When she greeted Zhang Zhun, she was obviously a little shy and embarrassed to meet people.

But Chen Lingfei was in Suzhou and was busy with business, so she had to let Sun Weina follow her. This also allowed her and Zhang Zhun to stay alone for a while and enjoy Zhang Zhun's caress. It would be even better if she could be a mother as she wished.

"Um."

Zhang Zhun looked at Sun Weina with a smile.

Sun Weina looks like a female salt owl now. After being cultivated by him a few times, she became more and more charming and shy. Whether on or under the bed, she was still a little hesitant. It was so strange that her changes made Zhang Zhun a little unpredictable!

"It'll be better if you're more natural."

Zhang Zhun shook his head and said relaxedly.

Sun Weina hesitated for a moment before slowly relaxing.

Zhang Zhun nodded and said with satisfaction: "That's right."

The two entered the hall, Zhang Zhun sat down and said casually: "That Liu Guangxin wasted so much of my saliva. I guess I have to stay in Songjiang Mansion for at least one month before I can completely teach the relevant courses."

Sun Weina smiled shyly and said with a grudge: "Master, don't talk bad things about others behind the scenes like this. Last time, you also said that Liu Guangxin is the most open-minded and comprehension among all the senior officials. His political experience is quite rich. Otherwise, you wouldn't have transferred him to this position."

Zhang Zhun subconsciously smiled and said casually: "Yes! He is already the best. But I don't think it's enough! Alas, some of the most basic economic issues need to be explained several times before I can understand them. Alas, they were all the previous imperial examinations that killed people. In the future imperial examinations, it is estimated that some courses will be added."

Sun Weina said with a smile: "You have to take a bite and eat it one by one. You can't hurry up. You should wait for the Ministry of Government to study and decide on the matter of the imperial examination. I guess there is no more fair way to select talents except the imperial examination. You don't want to be a filial and honest person or scholar, right?"

Zhang Zhun shook his head and laughed in silence.

When a filial and honest person is used, his father lives apart? When a scholar is used, he does not know how to write?

However, when I think about it seriously, I am indeed a little anxious.

That's right, Songjiang Prefecture does have some foundation. This is the most developed area of ​​the capitalist economy in Ming Dynasty. The handicrafts everywhere here have already formed the prototype of the capitalist economy. He values ​​this place and wants to develop it as soon as possible. The problem is that this foundation is relatively weak.

The capitalist economy of Songjiang Prefecture is actually a seedling that has just broken through the ground and needs careful care. Once it is subjected to storms, or someone is harsh, the seedling may die prematurely. In real history, the Qing army entered the pass and destroyed the seedling. As a result, China has been weak for four hundred years.

But he had to be in a hurry! You must know where Songjiang Prefecture is? It is Shanghai in later generations! When Zhang Zhun thought of Shanghai in later generations, he would be excited! If a Shanghai was built in the 178th century, wouldn’t everyone in the world envy him?

Seeing Zhang Zhun fall into deep thought, Sun Weina stood behind him and gently massaged his back. She originally wanted to pinch the bones for Zhang Zhun, but unfortunately, she had not learned the skills and had to massage her back instead. Suddenly, she felt that it was actually quite good to get along with the two of them quietly.

Zhang Zhun suddenly said, "Are you used to it?"

Sun Weina said shyly: "If you don't dislike me, I'll get used to it."

Zhang Zhun said with a smile: "Will I dislike you?"

Sun Weina was shy and silent.

Zhang Zhun held her soft palms, stroked her slowly, and said with a smile: "However, I want you to live a life of pure heart and weak desires. After these two years, you can return to your old business. At that time, we should take over Nanyang. There are a lot of business waiting for you to do! There are so many people alone who can't be busy with Feifei."

Sun Weina's face turned redder, she felt a little expectant and nervous inside.

This so-called day of being pure and weak is stipulated by the "Imperial Doctor" Ning Lingwei. The general content is that on the days when a woman prepares for a ******, she must eat lighter and healthier. She must avoid big fish, meat and all greasy foods. The purpose of this is of course to maintain a good body and increase the chance of ******.

Not to mention it after pregnancy or even after giving birth. In ancient times, people did not have much knowledge of diet therapy and tonic. They generally believed that eating lighter is a universal way to fight all physical problems. Sun Weina was just Kaiken by Zhang Zhun and had not yet confirmed whether there was any ***, so she naturally strictly abides by such regulations.

Because it usually takes two years from the time she is *** to the full month of the child and entering the Royal Kindergarten. During these two years, it is impossible for Sun Weina to go out for a trip. Even if she has to handle business, she has to wait for her child to grow up and can enter the kindergarten.

When Zhang Zhun heard that Sun Weina had no reaction for a long time, she subconsciously glanced backwards and said with a smile: "What? Are you unwilling? I thought you were willing!"

Sun Weina's cheeks were red and she was shy and said hesitantly: "I...I'm willing...but...this...is not something I can decide alone..."

Zhang Zhun laughed and said happily: "I understand! I will work harder!"

Sun Weina lowered her head, pinched the corner of her clothes, and said shyly: "And... don't let it be put into other people's mouths and ***... it's wasted..."

Zhang Zhun smiled and was about to speak when someone knocked in the door and sent the latest frontline battle report.

The content of the battle report is very simple. Yin Fengyi's Tiger Ben Army Suzaku Legion successfully conquered Kunming Prefecture, Yunnan, and Mu Tianbo committed suicide and died for his country. Others, including Mu Tianbo's wife and children, all surrendered. All the remaining imperial army also surrendered.

Zhang Zhun casually put the battle report on the table and slowly fell into deep thought. Obtaining Yunnan means that there is no way out in Shu. The court should make a wise choice now, right? Emperor Chongzhen should take the initiative, right?
