Villager of Daming

Chapter 699: Population Welfare and Economic Growth

The shopkeeper who wholesales the Four Treasures of the Study relaxed, and it turned out that it was better to face a wall than a person.

The shopkeeper of the shop next to him turned to look, showing a learned look. His expression was relaxed and waiting. If the prince asked him, he would turn around and speak to the wall.

"Okay, the one over there is wholesale embroidery? Hangzhou Prefecture? Can they sell it?" Zhu Biao stood here without moving and called directly to the other end.

The shopkeeper who was about to turn around was stunned for a moment, but found that he couldn't avoid his gaze by turning around, so he bit the bullet and said, "Go back to the prince and ask, they don't allow you to trade directly with the barbarians, so I came over. With the Rouge River, it's so convenient." .

This year half of it was sold to the palace. I heard that the palace exchanged it with the barbarians for good things. There was a lot of food and medicine, which we people have enjoyed.

When I came over, I took a large family, mainly many children, and asked them to go to the library to study. I thanked Your Majesty and Xiaqiu Village.

Yes, part of the other part was sold to the officials of the imperial court. They bought it home to make clothes, and Xiaqiu Village also bought it.

Nanjing is affluent. When people get married, they are willing to make a good set of clothes. We have embroidery workers in our family. As long as others want to make clothes when they get married, and they buy the raw materials, we will make them.

Prince!Not fighting anymore is better than anything else.Are the clothes you wear underneath Su embroidery?Our Hangzhou embroidery is not bad either. Can we make one for you? "

The shopkeeper was not nervous, he was far away, but the key was that he suffered from an occupational disease. He looked carefully at the shirts under everyone's suits and judged that they were Su embroidery.

When it comes to embroidery in Suzhou and Hangzhou, neither one is convinced by the other, so why are they both Suzhou embroidery?

"Your Highness, my Shu brocade is also beautiful. You should change into red clothes to match the Shu brocade." The shopkeeper opposite is from Sichuan and wants to compete.

Su embroidery and Hangzhou embroidery are embroidered on a piece of silk, such as silk without patterns, white, and then embroidered patterns on it.

The colors are woven into Shu brocade when it is weaved, and satin is generally a single color. Different from the original color of silk, the single color of satin is gorgeous.

It belongs to the pinnacle of Chinese civilization. There is no distinction between superior and inferior. It is just that people everywhere have to fight for it.

Embroidery can be embroidery on silk, icing on satin, or icing on brocade. Brocade can have its own patterns. Satin is not complicated, but silk is the root of all embroidery.

"Don't fight, don't fight!" The resident said: "It's all good! If you want to compare the West Lake to the West, it's better to put on light makeup and heavy makeup."

"Then who does Xiaqiu Village use?" the two shopkeepers asked together.

"The last batch of Suzhou embroidery was used, and the new batch is going to use other embroidery. I'll go back and find someone to come over, and I'll give you a quote!"

The director decided to strike a balance and avoid creating regional conflicts. Either one looks good, the key lies in how to use it.

Zhu Wentian smiled naively beside him. He knew how valuable these things were.

At that time, despite how expensive Western brand clothing was, he had never encountered the true beauty of China.

The team continued to move forward, and the shopkeeper was no longer nervous. He answered questions and talked about the situation in his store.

There was no loss of money, and the sales volume at the same price was at least double that of other places before.

"Chief, after all the buildings are built, who will have the money?"

The youngest Zhu Rui is very smart. He knows that he is building a house while making money. After all, when the house is finished, he will earn more money...

"Who does His Highness King Wu think it should be given to?" the chief asked.

"To whom?" Zhu Xi was confused. He was young and not as mature as his fourth brother Zhu Di.

Zhu Di also couldn't figure it out and looked at his three brothers.

"You can't give it to me anyway." Zhu Fan was the most straightforward. He just wanted to build his own fiefdom and felt that he was at a loss.

"That can't be given to us! We are close to our third brother, so we have to keep watch and help each other." Zhu Xi tried to comfort his younger brother.

"Thank you, second brother!" Zhu Fan expressed his gratitude. "To the imperial court." Zhu Biao expressed his thoughts: "This is the imperial court's place, and our village will help take care of it.

In fact, our village will not ask for this money. It needs to arrange management personnel. There are few people in our village and it will be too busy.

It belongs to the previous village operation. To teach others, make a pattern first, and other places will follow suit.

The imperial court took the money and operated it in other places according to the operation model of our village here, which is an initial capital investment.

When all places in the Ming Dynasty had the same commercial and cultural districts, the money gained entered the national treasury. "

After Zhu Biao finished speaking, he looked at the details. Was he right?
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said it well, and it is indeed true. After all, Ming Dynasty's territory will expand in the future. This model, plus department stores, will be opened.

When the court is making money, it must allocate part of the money to military construction and use the military to protect the interests of the store.

You can push from near to far, or you can choose a jumping layout in the bustling areas outside, so that the army needs to undertake more tasks. "

The chief extended Zhu Biao's words. Zhu Biao was considering the current territory of the Ming Dynasty. That is not right. The territory of the Ming Dynasty can be increased.

Zhu Wentian continued to laugh naively. Yes, the Ming Dynasty has not yet introduced any policy of a country without conquests, and there will be no such policy in the future.

Let's develop trade. When we go outside, we don't fight others, and we just exchange normally. Then others don't want to exchange, but want to rob us. If we start a war, whoever loses will have to pay more.

Zhu Biao clasped his fists: "We are overthinking it. Yes, the territory of the Yuan Dynasty is conquered. We don't take the initiative to attack, but we can't let others attack us."

"His Royal Highness is benevolent and righteous, so he can always think that others will be benevolent and righteous," the chief continued.

"Thank you, Chief!" Zhu Biao thanked him.

He understands that the chief is not praising him, but telling him that you are benevolent and righteous. Others may not necessarily be benevolent and righteous. You must have the intention to harm others, but you must also have the intention to guard against others!
Most people would not dare to talk to the prince like this, only people from Xiaqiu Village would do this.

……

"In front is the sewage treatment plant. It is very big. It will probably take three years to build! It depends on how many new technologies come out in the village. If they come out quickly, it will only take two years."

The chief led everyone to continue walking. Ahead was a large construction site, a sewage treatment plant.

At present, there are people in Nanjing who are responsible for collecting night incense, and then transporting it to other places for storage and fermentation. It is a profitable business.

People know that farmyard fertilizer has been around since the Song Dynasty, and some people have made a fortune from it.

They have become gangs. In each place, who is responsible for collecting night incense? Don’t cross the line, otherwise you will be beaten to death.

What?Collect money from the people?Sewage treatment fee?

No, no, no, no, no, you just need to give me the bucket in your house. If there is a toilet allowed, I can come and clean it every day.

It belongs to an industrial chain, and people in the Ming Dynasty were not stupid and knew about farmyard fertilizer.

Some people specifically buy barren fields at low prices, and then buy farmyard manure to improve them and turn them into fertile fields.

Especially after the war, when the population was small and some land had low yields, night-scented harvesters took a fancy to it and got it for almost no money.

The fertilizer is plowed in, then soybeans are planted, and the fields are entered for several consecutive years.

As long as it is a prosperous place, like Nanjing, people want saline-alkali land, and they will improve it while seeing if they can boil out saltpeter.
