Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

Chapter 263 Chongzhen Three Years (End of this volume)

The chill brought by the harsh wind makes people feel cold to the bone. During the Little Ice Age, the deep winter in the north of Ming Dynasty was killing people invisible.

The white snow fluttering in the wind covered the entire Forbidden City with silver, and also covered up the past stagnation. Everyone said that the auspicious snow Zhaofeng noodles were only in the three years of Chongzhen, and they were not so friendly.

Natural disasters such as floods, droughts, and earthquakes are many of them. The rebel forces that ravage Shanshan will also completely break out in Shanxi this year. Previously, they were only wreaking havoc under the rule of Shaanxi...

"A troubled autumn."

Emperor Chongzhen, who was standing in the office of the Military Aircraft Department, looked at the snow falling outside the palace, feeling a little complicated, "In the blink of an eye, it has been three years since Chongzhen."

Wang Chengen and Han Zanzhou, who were standing beside Hou, did not know why their princes had such worried expressions after the great dynasty ended.

The group of ministers in the Ming and Ming dynasties no longer insisted on the Yuan case, or made their own emperor unhappy in other ways, but now...

"Wang Banban, how is the sales of the honeycomb stoves sold outside the convenience store recently?" Emperor Chongzhen turned around, looked at Wang Chengen and said, "Has the production of the workshops prepared by the inner factory increased? What is the output of honeycomb coal supplied?"

Living in Daming is not easy, and living in the capital is even more difficult, especially in the midwinter of the Little Ice Age, the overall climate and environment are much colder than before.

For Emperor Chongzhen, any vigorous new policy reforms in the court did not focus on reality to change the reality of the Ming Dynasty.

Assembly line operation, a skill that played an important role in the pre-Qin period, disappeared in the vast history of China due to the change of dynasties and the destruction of wars.

Now, Emperor Chongzhen has once again lifted it out of the long history of obliteration and given it a heavier responsibility. This is also an important foundation for building a state-owned economy.

"Return to the emperor, the honeycomb stoves sold in the convenience store are very good." Wang Chengen smiled, leaned forward and said, "In just a short period of ten days, more than 3000 were sold.

According to the method set by the emperor, after the division of labor in the workshops that manufacture honeycomb furnaces and honeycomb briquettes, the output has increased by more than ten times.

This winter, the convenience store can earn 8 taels of silver just by selling honeycomb stoves and honeycomb briquettes, which..."

Emperor Chongzhen didn't care about how much money he could earn this winter, he just wanted to make honeycomb stoves and briquettes, which can maximize the efficiency of heating, popular in the capital first.

After all, the midwinter in the Little Ice Age was really difficult. If you were not careful, you would freeze to death in your sleep.

However, based on the current sales situation, Emperor Chongzhen really felt that even the people in the capital who lived at the feet of the emperor were mostly not rich.

In this world of cannibalism, most of the wealth in Ming Dynasty is in the hands of powerful groups, like the people at the bottom are struggling to survive.

"The honeycomb stoves sold in the convenience store adhere to the concept of small profits but quick turnover, and the price is not allowed to be raised." Emperor Chongzhen frowned and said: "The price of honeycomb stoves sold in other places can be high. Powerful guys don't lack these three or five taels of silver.

There are also spinning mills, weaving factories, and garment factories led by the Internal Weaving and Dyeing Bureau. Have all selected good locations?Has the internal Bureau of Weaving and Dyeing made any progress in improving the multi-spindle spinning machines and looms? "

Cotton cloth, as one of the hard currencies of the Ming Dynasty, was an area that Emperor Chongzhen was targeting, and it was one of the important industrial pillars under his jurisdiction to build a state-owned economy.

The technological content of the cotton textile industry is relatively low. Although he doesn't know much about the way of spinning and weaving, he can still provide some guidance in some aspects, and then set rewards. Who can improve the spinning efficiency? Higher spinning cars and looms with faster weaving efficiency will reward you with silver and fertile land.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't believe that money can turn ghosts, and he was willing to spend money, but he couldn't improve the efficiency of spinning and weaving, and effectively combine it with water power.

Wang Chengen leaned forward and said, "The addresses of the spinning mill, the weaving mill, and the garment factory have all been selected, and they are located in the two Huangzhuangs next to the Lugou River.

However, there has not been much progress in improving the multi-spindle spinning car and loom, and how to combine it with hydraulic power, but some methods have been explored. "

Under the rule of the Ming Dynasty, the status of artisan households was very humble, and it was a luxury to even have enough food. Although it was officially stated that artisan households were higher than merchants in terms of scholars, farmers, and businessmen, this was not the case in reality.

The deformed household registration system of the Ming Dynasty caused many injustices and inconveniences.

If the Ming Dynasty wanted to reverse the unfavorable situation during the Little Ice Age and clear up the existing chronic diseases, it had to find ways to increase productivity and actively develop foreign trade.

Only in this way, and only in this way, can we earn money and food from overseas, so that we can change Daming little by little through the national court level.

"Call these above-mentioned factories, and they are not allowed to treat the craftsmen under their control harshly." Emperor Chongzhen thought for a while, and said: "Improving multi-spindle spinning machines and looms is not an easy task.

In addition, on your inner factory side, you must urge the Huangzhuang of the various prefectures under the rule of Beizhili to continue to gather artisans, and those with good craftsmanship must be escorted to the capital.

In the future, part of the Huangzhuang in the various prefectures under the rule of Beizhili will be built into factories. If anyone can't handle the errands by then, then they will be punished! "

"Here!"

Although it is not easy to climb the technology tree in Daming, Emperor Chongzhen is willing to spend time and money to cultivate it step by step.

To gradually increase productivity in actual production, and in the process, to climb up their respective technology trees little by little is the established policy of Emperor Chongzhen.

It is not easy to build a state-owned economy, but as long as each step is made steadily, Emperor Chongzhen believes that after a long period of accumulation, the Ming Dynasty will surely usher in changes.

In the three years of Chongzhen, even though the difficulties and disasters were right in front of his eyes, Emperor Chongzhen did not feel discouraged at all, on the contrary, he ignited a strong fighting spirit.

The Jianlu, who were supposed to wreak havoc on Gyeonggi, did not end until the third year of Chongzhen, and they were all resolved by themselves, and they also gained a lot of political advantages.

Relying on the advantage of foresight, Emperor Chongzhen did not feel that when he encountered other problems, he could really make himself helpless.

New year and a new look.

The Yuan case that was raised in the second year of Chongzhen is also the time to make a conclusion for him at the beginning of the third year of Chongzhen. As the starting point for him to set things right, Daming will also start from the third year of Chongzhen and move towards a new direction! !
