Chapter 907 Getting rich depends on fighting (third update, please subscribe)
Daming's industry is still not strong enough!

Before that, many people may have said proudly that my Daming is now an industrial powerhouse!

But after the war broke out, everyone was dumbfounded in the face of the surge in domestic and foreign orders!

Can you not be dumbfounded?
The military order is so huge that it far exceeds Daming's industrial production capacity.

In order to meet the surge in military orders, almost all factories began to supply military products first, which directly affected the lives of many ordinary people.

In fact, the impact of the war on ordinary people in Ming Dynasty was almost...not much, of course, except that "a small number of" commodities gradually became a little tight.After all, conscription is mostly based on immigrants, and for ordinary people, the biggest impact of war on them is... the war increased their income.

The sudden increase in military orders made almost all factories in Daming suddenly boom. In order to complete the orders, the factories required workers to work overtime. The surge in overtime pay even doubled the income of many workers in a short period of time.

It has to be said that war is sometimes the best booster for industrial production. The surge in orders and limited production capacity have benefited almost all enterprises in Ming Dynasty, and workers of course can also benefit from it, just like many senior technicians After the outbreak of the war, Li Tieliang's wages more than doubled. Of course, he was very satisfied with this. He worked in the factory for [-] hours a day, and even went to the factory to work on weekends. eight hours.

"As long as you have money, you can't use up your strength."

Whenever his wife and children persuaded him to work less overtime, Li Tieliang would answer in this way. In his opinion, this is a god-given opportunity.

"Do more work and earn more money, that's the right way!"

Even Li Tieliang had already thought about it, and when this month's salary was paid, he would hire a maid for the family. In fact... it was to marry a wife for his second son.

With this in mind, Li Tieliang took advantage of the weekend to call his second child back from the factory.

The second factory is also very busy. Now there are almost no factories that can be idle, but every factory has endless work and endless orders.

Of course, the income of the corresponding workers has also increased a lot, and even the most stingy boss will increase the wages of the workers.

If the wages were not raised, the people in those factories would have left long ago.

A plate of braised pig's trotters, a plate of pig's intestines, a plate of braised beef, plus a plate of peanuts and two side dishes fried by the wife, the father and the father began to drink.

"I said, Pingcai, I've been thinking about it these days..."

Before Li Tieliang finished speaking, Li Pingcai said.

"Father, I'm thinking about it too, let's set up a workshop by ourselves!"

what?
Li Tieliang opened his eyes wide, looking at Li Pingcai puzzled.

"What do you say?"

"Dad, you've seen it too. Now as long as it's a factory, there's endless work to do, even a workshop with only a few machines. If our family runs a processing factory, with your craftsmanship, Dad, you'll definitely be able to do this job." Can't finish it, working for the boss, how much more can you earn than being the boss yourself?"

Looking at his 17-year-old son, Li Tieliang was dumbfounded,
"What are you talking about? We set up a factory by ourselves. There are no people in our family who know how to do business. How could it be that people from our old Li's family did this business..."

Li Pingcai directly retorted at what his father said.

"Didn't your ancestors ever work as workers? When our family lived in our hometown in Shandong for generations, they were farmers, but why did your father become a worker?"

Li Tieliang was dumbfounded by his son's rebuttal, and looked at his 17-year-old son. This kid... really has been studying for a few years, so why does his mind think differently from him?

"Pingcai, our family has a small business, but we can't afford it. How much money does it cost to set up a factory? Our family has so much money."

Mother interjected, she wanted to hold a grandson more than run a factory!The head of the house told her about it a few days ago.

"One thousand and a few hundred dollars is enough, father, the army has just captured Montevideo on the other side of the river. Although that place is not as good as ours, there must be machines there. Let's go over and buy a few machines, if it works. , just set up a factory directly..."

Before his son could finish speaking, Li Tieliang said.

"A thousand or a few hundred dollars, whose machine to buy? How much is it for a factory?"

"Father, Uncle Zhuzi has worked in a restaurant for many years. If he knew that you were willing to come out and do it alone, he would definitely be willing to take part in it. And Boss Cheng, he has been thinking about setting up a factory with you for a long time. Let us know about your father's craftsmanship. Who in the neighborhoods around Anleyuan doesn’t know about it?”

This is the truth. When it comes to his craftsmanship, Li Tieliang's face is full of pride. Several factories have offered to hire him. After all, factories rely on the craftsmanship of their workers.

"If Dad, you come out and do it yourself, they will definitely be willing to take money to participate. I thought, as long as we have 7000 yuan, we can start a workshop and buy a few second-hand machines in Montevideo. It will definitely work!"

This really works?

Li Tieliang picked up a piece of stewed large intestine with chopsticks, took a bite, and drank another sip of wine, before speaking for a while.

"I'm afraid it's still not safe for this matter, but it's safe for us to work in the factory."

"Father, what's so unstable, we all rely on craftsmanship and technology to make a living, even if we don't make it, we have technology, so we are afraid that no factory will want us?"

"But are you sure there are machines on the other side of the river? Machines are not easy to buy now. It's the boss Xu in our factory who begged grandpa to tell grandma to add ten new machines."

"Father, if you go there, you'll know. No matter what, the past is still a country. Can there be no machines?"

Li Pingcai took a sip of his wine and said with longing eyes.

"Father, no matter what, it's just a loss of last month's wages. If you don't worry about it, then I'll go there by myself. My wages are low and I can't lose a lot of money. If it happens, then our Li family will lose money." Developed!"

This night, the Li family father and son didn't sleep well. Should they go or not?
The two of them thought about it all night, until the next day, Li Tieliang, with red eyes, said to his son.

"Pingcai, stay here, I'll go to Montevideo, I..."

Before his father finished speaking, Li Pingcai asked with a smile.

"Dad, how much Spanish do you speak?"

Not to mention, just asking casually like this made Li Tieliang dumbfounded, he didn't know a word.

"Father, why don't we go together, when I was in school, I learned some Spanish no matter what..."
