Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

Chapter 522 Government-run Factories

Chapter 522 Government-run factories (1)

In the current stage of Ming Dynasty, in the field of production, in the eyes of Emperor Chongzhen, most of them were produced in small workshops, and they did not even touch the initial stage of large-scale production.

The accumulation of capital and the expansion of scale all take time to settle.

Maybe one generation, maybe two generations, maybe longer. After all, development also pays attention to historical cycles, and objective facts cannot be ignored and changed.

In order to change the situation facing Ming Dynasty, it is necessary to adjust the production model, from the past single land production, relying on the sky to eat, and evolve into a variety of production methods to meet the needs of most groups without land.

"My lord, the king and the others are here."

Wang Chengen walked into Dongnuan Pavilion with his head bowed, bowed his hands and bowed.

"Xuan."

Emperor Chongzhen said concisely.

Under the rule of Shanxi, Beizhili, and Shandong, the overall concept of recruiting workers was clarified, and the disaster relief agencies in the three places gathered the refugees under the administration. In the name of rectifying water conservancy and repairing the roads, they realized the reunion of the refugees under their respective administrations. , which means that Emperor Chongzhen is going to take action to revitalize real industry and commerce.

"Chen... Zhou Kui, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

"Minister and so on, pay homage to Your Majesty."

"Grassman and so on, pay homage to His Majesty."

Emperor Chongzhen sat firmly on the dragon chair and looked at the dozen or so people standing in front of him. Except for Zhou Kui who was still calm, the rest of the people were counted as one, and they were very nervous.

Among them, there are stewards of the Chuanhai Federation, and there are imperial merchants who have been screened and appointed.

It is unimaginable for them to enter the palace to meet the emperor.

Of course, these people are just representatives, and there are many others who are not qualified to enter the Forbidden City.

"Excuse me."

Emperor Chongzhen looked indifferently, looked at Zhou Kui and the others and said, "Over the past year or so, Huitong Bank and Chuanhai General Assembly have developed rapidly.

Both are located in Beizhili and Liaoqian, and the coverage of the prefecture, prefecture, county, and Wei has been realized, which is considered to have exceeded my expectations.

I summoned you into the palace today because I wanted to talk about the establishment of the factory. It just so happened that several representatives of the imperial merchants who had been approved by the inner factory also followed into the palace.

In the near future, the imperial court plans to start gathering refugee groups under its rule in Shanxi, Beizhili, and Shandong. In the name of improving water conservancy and repairing Chi Road, these refugees will be asked to adapt to the new environment of distribution according to work in advance. "

Without exception, Zhang Jinzhong, Lu Yongbao, Yue Qingzhang, and Sheng Yingwu, the stewards of the Chuanhai Federation, Liu Jiangan, Xia Liangyu, Qin Zhihong, and Kou Xiliang, the approved imperial merchants, all secretly pondered in their hearts, and some brilliance flashed in their eyes. .

When Emperor Chongzhen rectified the Huangzhuang in Zhili territory, in addition to supporting orphans and widows, diverting victims of disasters, and contracting most of the land under his jurisdiction to these groups for planting, he also planned to establish a number of large-scale production under the rule of these Huangzhuang. factory.

Spinning mills, weaving factories, garment factories, iron factories, salt factories, coal factories, glass factories, shipyards...

There are many industrial fields involved, relying on the advantage of concentrated resources, under the overall development of the internal factory, many systems conceived by Emperor Chongzhen, including distribution according to work, training and promotion mechanisms, etc., have been implemented one by one, realizing non-steam The assembly line operation of the era, that is, the most primitive factory model.

The production mode of the above-mentioned factories implements the assembly line operation and relies on pure manual production to advance. This alone is enough to far exceed the many industries produced by those small workshops under the Ming Dynasty.

The batch of factories planned to be built in Huangzhuang all over the country, after more than a year of running-in production, have continued to increase production, with the incentive of more work and more pay, which can be regarded as training large-scale industrial workers.

Emperor Chongzhen also knew in his heart that if he wanted to realize the first industrial revolution in Daming, it would be absolutely impossible without decades of accumulation.

Whether his generation will see the steam engine is hard to say, but as long as the foundation is solid enough, I believe it will be seen in the future.

The foundation to be firmly established is the development of primitive industrialization, that is, industrialization before industrialization!

It took about 300 years for the West to develop primitive industrialization, during which bloody accumulations such as sheep cannibalism, great voyage expansion, slave trade, colonial rule, and war plunder were staged.

The Ming Dynasty wanted to reverse the predicament and avoid the overthrow of the country. After thinking about it, Emperor Chongzhen believed that only through the development of primitive industrialization and continuous improvement of productivity, would it be possible to get back on track and gradually complete self-innovation. new road.

"Through the factories prepared by Huangzhuang, all kinds of goods produced in batches are sold by the Chuanhai Federation. I found that large-scale production can help the court, help the local area, and solve many practical problems."

Seeing everyone's reactions, Emperor Chongzhen leaned on the dragon chair and said, "So I plan to focus on the Chuanhai General Assembly and the Huitong Ticket Number as a supplement.

In the form of special technology sales and special loan support, the Chuanhai Federation and you imperial merchants have set up a number of government-run factories in Shanxi, Zhili, and Shandong.

With this name, you can not be made trouble in the local area.

Only with this name can local development develop.

Wang Banban, tell them all to read the articles of association that I have drawn up, keep the people from Huitong Ticket Number and Chuanhai Association, and everyone else should step back and read first. "

"The slaves obey the order."

Wang Chengen bowed hurriedly.

Liu Jiang'an, Xia Liangyu, Qin Zhihong, Kou Xiliang and other imperial merchants were a little nervous on the surface, but they were secretly calculating in their hearts.

Who doesn't know that many of the commodities sold by the Chuanhai Federation are directly transferred and dumped from the factories established by Huangzhuang in various places.

Cotton cloth, coal stove, glazed utensils, glazed mirrors, soap, etc., have corresponding specifications for groups with different needs.

In particular, cement, steel materials, iron materials and other industrial commodities related to infrastructure and military industries are definitely hot sellers, and there is no need to worry about selling them at all.

After all, the construction of Chidao in Zhili territory and the military industry under Xishan's rule have all been digested internally.

Cultivating and supporting upstream and downstream industries is what Emperor Chongzhen has been doing.

With the Armed Forces Academy as the core scientific research center, the steam engine could not be developed, but cement, glass, soap and other things could be developed. As long as the money was enough, Emperor Chongzhen didn't think it was difficult.

Once these hatched seeds are scattered everywhere to take root and germinate, they will definitely grow vigorously. At that time, great changes will appear in Daming.

Of course, another group will also be born, the group of large and small factory owners.

"Guo Zhang, the development of the Huitong ticket account is indeed good, but it is far from enough."

Emperor Chongzhen leaned on the dragon chair, stretched out his hand and said to Zhou Kui: "I think it's time to let go of the batch of talents cultivated earlier.

In the next three years, Zhenyao Huitong ticket offices have successively opened ticket offices at all levels in Shanxi, Shandong, Henan and other places, and formed an effective supervision system.

In addition, Huitong Bills in Shanxi, Beizhili, and Shandong must draw up a large number of special loan quotas, which are specially used for industrial and commercial loans. For approval, submit it to the imperial court as soon as possible. "
