Since the Accounting: A Chronicle of the Roman Khanate

Chapter 340 Mutual assistance is the cornerstone of a country

In order to change the subject, Guo Kang told Tuo Huan what happened just now.

"This time is an opportunity." He thought of a reason: "The order in Dadu back then was rectified by my uncle Li Degong. But in the decades since then, the city has become larger and more crowded, but There has been no promotion of management. Now that I take care of it, I also inherit the behest of my predecessors."

"No problem." Tuo Huan also expressed his support: "Isn't this good?"

"Oh, there is just one thing." He thought for a while, and said: "Since you want to do it, make it bigger. If you only focus on this matter, everyone will suspect that you deliberately targeted Cao Jian or Pronsky, and caused trouble with them." Contradictory. But if it is made clear that it targets all the gangsters in the city, there is no need to shy away from it. At that time, they will take the initiative to cut off these people."

"Including Pronski. Since he is the son-in-law of the Cao family, he is also considered a member of Rome. I know you think he is a smooth man, and he is a local tyrant chief from outside. He is not very credible, but there are some things to think about. Yes, when doing things seriously, as long as he doesn't do anything out of line, we can't deliberately target him."

"He is the person chosen by the Cao family, and the Cao family is the pillar state recognized by our system. So if we want to maintain this system, we must not deny him except for the places that need to be avoided as stipulated by the rules. Otherwise, other people will marry us. , and those who take refuge in us, what will they think."

"Of course there are risks, but what is risk-free? If something goes wrong, I will help Cao to deal with it." He finally said: "Because this is also part of our rules, we can't just Benefits, no risk; just receive the goods, no price."

Guo Kang nodded, expressing his understanding.

What Tie Huan said is indeed reasonable.Everyone has troubles. If others see the Cao family being abandoned, they will wonder if they will be the next one.In this way, everyone can only prioritize their own survival, and it is difficult to maintain this level of unity.

"Hey, actually, from a historical point of view, this is not a good thing." Guo Kang couldn't help but sighed: "Relying on the upper-level families to hug each other and protect each other is not a good way to last."

"It's okay, as long as it works better than the barbarian system." Tuo Huan didn't care too much: "I also want to recruit more people, from a dozen families to all families in Rome, and call soldiers like this When it is time, it can make everyone more motivated. But who made us have this condition now? We can’t learn from Poland.”

"I will also support the textiles and other things you mentioned." He said: "I think that only when these industries develop can more people have the time to study, and then we can talk about the rest. Otherwise, we Probably never catch up with Yuan and Ming."

"Then I will give you a copy of the information." Guo Kang said smoothly.

"What do I come to see?" Tuo Huan immediately refused: "You calculate it and tell me the result. Anyway, I am not as good as you, so why waste that time."

"Then I'll just give you the results." Guo Kang had no choice but to give in: "We still have to look at this. If you understand it, you will know how big this industry can be."

"In addition, I also told Master Wang that in this trial, we can directly introduce new technology. I believe that these nuns are enough to support themselves, and even make more profits. If we can do well, we can even directly Promote managers from here."

"Is that okay?" Tuo Huan was a little surprised.

"Yes." Guo Kang said: "The textile industry requires less physical strength than farming. In production, the machine still needs a certain amount of strength to achieve the highest efficiency. Therefore, it requires healthy and powerful The woman operates."

"Similarly, this is a job that requires skill. It is not enough to work hard, but also to learn technology. There are not only basic skills such as weaving cloth and weaving patterns, but also additional needs such as maintenance and repair of machines."

"In addition, weavers need to pay attention to what kind of cloth to weave, who to hand the woven cloth to, and how much to exchange. Because the cotton textile industry is different from the 'big project' like silk, most of them are produced by single households. , Single-person production. Therefore, weavers even need to learn literacy and arithmetic before they can trade with merchants, receive orders from them, and then sell the woven cloth.”

"Think about the general level of a woman who can shake a large loom, settle accounts with merchants, and sign contracts." Guo Kang finally concluded: "I think, from this kind of people, the ones with management Ability, it will not be too difficult."

"That's really true..." Tuo Huan seemed to have never thought of this: "In addition to training and preparing for war, this is also a way to improve the capabilities of non-governmental organizations."

"In the Ming Dynasty, this kind of organization could be formed spontaneously by the people." Guo Kang told him: "In the Jiangnan area, there are merchants called 'buying merchants'. They will provide loans to peasant women, distribute raw materials regularly, and even provide looms. And the peasant women in the whole village and the whole commune weave cloth in batches according to their requirements. Although many people still work at home, they have actually formed a relatively tight organization. Big businessmen can control hundreds of looms, Unified production as needed."

"My plan is actually to copy them." He admitted: "It's just that our side is still too backward, and businessmen may not have this ability, so we teach ourselves to be the 'buyer'."

"It just so happens that these nuns are more concentrated in their daily lives and can be trained in a unified way. Compared with ordinary people, their education level is also higher. They can be trained first, and then the church will send them to various places. In this way , the efficiency can be improved, and the experience of the East can also be copied on our side.”

"Okay, not bad." Tuo Huan nodded repeatedly.

"Mutual help is the cornerstone of a country." Guo Kang also said along the way: "I think, whether it's the upper class or the lower class, whether it's a man or a woman, if we can do this, we don't have to worry about anything."

"In addition, among these nuns, we can also train and select leaders." He suggested: "After the increase in tasks, in addition to the nuns who are already managing the congregation, more professional people will definitely be needed. For example, the purchaser , organizing manpower, designing patterns... We can do these tasks at the beginning, but in the end we must hand them over to themselves.”

"This is an opportunity to exercise. I believe that as long as we train in this kind of organization for a period of time, we can get a group of women with management skills. This is very good for our country and the army."
