Datang first village

Chapter 145 Hydraulic Silk Machine

In Xizhou, Li Yuanxing quickly thought about the location of this place.

It is a node of the Silk Road.

It can be said that the boundary between the Tang Dynasty and the Western Regions was drawn from here, and only one-tenth of the goods were paid to get here smoothly. It seems that it has something to do with the victory of the war.

"So, what's the shipping price?" Li Yuanxing asked.

"The delivery price is a little low, 140 guan for each horse, and the highest is only 140 and [-] guan. But with the purchase of goods from Anxi merchants, this time the run is extremely worthwhile." Li Huishou reported carefully, keeping an eye on Li Yuanxing from time to time The expression on his face, but Li Yuanxing's face was calm, and he couldn't see anything.

After waiting for a while, Li Yuanxing still didn't say a word, holding a teacup in his hand, his expression remained calm.

Li Huishou continued: "There are three reasons for the low shipment price this time!"

"Tell me and listen!" Li Yuanxing finally spoke.

Li Huishou secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The King Qin in front of him was young, but every time he faced this coercion, he was a little heavier.

"The first reason is that all the merchants are afraid of an accident this time, so they all clear the leftovers in the warehouse!" Li Huishou said this reason, and then said a few words: "Many leftovers are damaged due to improper storage. But it's not too heavy!"

Li Yuanxing nodded: "Continue!"

"If it's the current authentic product, it can be [-] to [-] guan higher!" Having said that, Li Huishou got up and saluted Li Yuanxing: "It was His Royal Highness King Qin who gave the Brocade Silk Chamber of Commerce an opportunity. It will soon become commonplace too, and the newest weaves and better silks will be worth more."

"Very good, this idea is good!" Li Yuanxing praised.

Only by improving the quality of the goods is the right way. Better and better silk can have a very good price.

"Your Highness, the reason why the price is not high this time is that the foreign merchants have formed an alliance, which prevents us from raising the price. Breaking this alliance requires some means and time, and these are our responsibilities."

Li Yuanxing nodded again, this statement is correct.

Moreover, as a Tang merchant, he couldn't even break the alliance of foreign countries, so it was impossible for the Silk Road to lead to Europe.

"The third reason is!" Speaking of this, Li Huishou hesitated.

Li Yuanxing guessed the reason: "Okay, the third point, I believe, will not exist in three years, three years later. The Tang Dynasty is weak, and all the countries in the world have not seen the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. They dare to fight against it." Datang. Therefore, you don’t have enough right to speak, as long as Datang is strong enough, no one will deliberately embarrass you when you are doing business outside!”

"King Qin is wise!" Chief Li Hui saluted.

At this time, Wu Zhao had finished his dinner, pushed the bowl away, and watched from behind the screen.

Li Yuanxing has already integrated into this era, and it is no longer Li Yuanxing sitting there.It was the Qin King of the Tang Dynasty, the No. [-] king in the world of the Tang Dynasty, who possessed extremely high power and a very noble status.

That coercion is something that the modern Li Yuanxing will never possess.

King Qin of the Tang Dynasty has experienced a lot, experienced wars, experienced life and death.This is King Qin!

Li Huishou straightened his body: "Your Highness, the craftsmen of our chamber of commerce have made hundreds of looms after many researches based on the heaven-sent treasure. When the last time we sent the prototype and returned the treasure to the god-sent craftsman, your highness was away. The chief of our chamber of commerce After the craftsmen saw the waterwheel used for irrigation in Qinwangzhuang, they went back to study carefully and combined the waterwheel with the loom."

Hydraulic Loom!

This word popped up in Li Yuanxing's mind. He was still calm on the surface, but he was already extremely shocked in his heart.

The craftsmen of Datang are really extraordinary.

"It seems that this king should go and see for himself!" After Li Yuanxing finished speaking, Li Huishou bowed and said, "Your Highness, Xiaomin's Chamber of Commerce has already made a model machine, and it is outside the house. Please allow them to lift it up!"

Li Yuanxing nodded slightly: "Very good, I want to see it with my own eyes!"

First there are four people, carrying a big red box.This box contained the model that Li Yuanxing had printed out with a printer, and several people put the box aside respectfully.

The last time they sent it back, there was no real person in charge of Qinwangzhuang, so they carried it back again.

After that, another eight people entered in groups of four carrying two wooden boxes.

An old man in new clothes followed behind and saw Li Yuanxing first salute, and then stood aside respectfully.

The wooden box was opened, and the models that had been divided into several pieces were laid out one by one. After obtaining Li Yuanxing's permission, the assembly began.

But Wu Zhao came out from behind the screen at this time: "There is actually one that is an improved version of the Jenny machine, and it is twelve ingots." Wu Zhao's sudden appearance startled Li Huishou.

Li Yuanxing was surprised because he heard Jenny's phone.

"Don't mess around, come here!" Li Yuanxing beckoned Wu Zhao to come over, it was a formal occasion.Some words can be said, some words cannot be said.Because he didn't know what Wu Zhao was going to say, Li Yuanxing's first choice was to stop him.

Wu Zhao came to Li Yuanxing's side, said a few words in a low voice, and then leaned against Li Yuanxing's side.

"The one on the left is used to spin hemp thread. I remember that the linen has its own chamber of commerce. This time, the twelve threads are extremely brilliant items. The hydraulic drive saves labor. If the hydraulic power is insufficient, you can also use Animal power. This thing can be entered into the Tianzhi Academy. Li Huishou took out this thing, is he afraid that the linen merchants will use this machine, but there will not be enough benefits for you!"

Li Yuanxing said with a smile, but Li Huishou was very nervous.

Because that's what he had in mind, they don't deal in linen, but the craftsman made this machine by accident.

If it is spread like this, the production of linen will increase greatly, but their chamber of commerce will not benefit at all.

Bringing it here is asking for protection.

"You can't exclusively produce the machine, this is the rule. But the Tianzhi tax can be divided into [-]% for you. You can imagine, if someone researches the silk loom, so don't think about the neck of the linen chamber of commerce on the production of these looms, breaking the rules , What if someone jams your necks in the future?"

Li Yuanxing kept a smile on his face.

He set the rules of Tianzhi tax, so this rule is the iron law.

"Little people are short-sighted, King Qin is wise!"

Li Yuanxing then lightly patted Wu Zhao's back: "Go and have a look, how about these two things?"

After getting permission, the old craftsman began to assemble the two machines.

Wu Zhao was watching from the side, and looked back at Li Yuanxing when the machine that spun the hemp thread was half assembled.After Li Yuanxing nodded, Wu Zhao said: "It can be better, the transmission part is wasted." After that, he pointed to the machine and said: "Don't think about sharing the water power and animal power. It can be divided into two components. When there is water power, you can use animal power. It's better to replace it in time!"

Wu Zhao's advice made the old craftsman fall to the ground immediately.

"Well, the work is still very good. Some small things can be improved. It is impossible to make everything the best at the same time. The idea of ​​using water power is brilliant. Both of them can be admitted to Tianzhi Academy."

"Thank you King Qin!"

Li Yuanxing stood up, walked to Wu Zhao and pulled Wu Zhao behind him, and said, "The Tianzhi Institute is an official of the Tang Dynasty. Since it is established, it has an authoritative surname."

"Yes, Xiaomin is stupid!"

"If it is established, you must believe it. Otherwise, what is the majesty of the Tang Dynasty, you can rest assured that no one will owe you the heavenly wisdom tax that this thing should have." Li Yuanxing was admonishing this.

Just now there was praise, now there is admonishment.

Wu Zhao was really convinced, this is a typical carrot and stick approach.

"Right now, you should fight for that craftsman's rank reward. A chamber of commerce has top craftsmen, and you can't see the benefits now, but what about the future?" Li Yuanxing said here, pulling Wu Zhao to the top seat.

Next, everyone is bent over.Li Huishou said: "His Royal Highness King Qin please show me!"

"Li Huishou, you did a good job. The king is very satisfied, but your heart is not open enough! In the future, one chamber of commerce will have many top craftsmen, top technicians, and top embroiderers. But the other will only have a few famous Craftsmen, technicians, and embroiderers. Whether you are a merchant or a merchant, you answer the king, which one will you choose!"

Li Huidao immediately knelt down: "Thank you King Qin for your guidance, Xiaomin is stupid!"

"Go! You can do more in-depth research on these two machines. Only by constantly trying them out and listening to the opinions of technicians and workers can you do better. Your chamber of commerce is worthy of the royal name! "

"King Qin is wise, Xiaomin resigns!"

Li Huishou took his people away, sweating profusely, but left ecstatically.

After Li Huishou left, Wu Zhao asked, "Why, why didn't you give them the final design."

"Teaching a man how to fish is worse than giving a man a fish!" Li Yuanxing said with a smile, and flicked Wu Zhao's forehead lightly: "Your little cleverness is not as good as this king's great wisdom!"

Wu Zhao didn't even refute.

Because what Li Yuanxing said was not wrong, she was wrong.

It is a good thing to bring advanced drawings to Datang.But it will make people dependent!

But now, the craftsmen of Datang will study by themselves, so this trend will slowly spread, and there will be progress if there is research.Under proper guidance, Datang's industrial foundation will become stronger. With Li Yuanxing's guidance alone, how many people can Li Yuanxing guide.

How many people can see Li Yuanxing's drawings.

Li Yuanxing, the king of Qin, really lived up to his name, and Wu Zhao felt his own inadequacy for the first time.

In modern times, as far as a top student is concerned, she is conceited, and she believes in her own wisdom.

But in fact, great wisdom is wisdom, just being smart and knowledgeable is far from being called great wisdom.

Wu Zhao suddenly bowed to Li Yuanxing: "King Qin is brilliant, Wu Zhao has been taught!"

Hahaha!Li Yuanxing laughed out loud at being teased by Wu Zhao.But Wu Zhao pursed her mouth. She was sincerely being taught, but Li Yuanxing took it as a joke. How could she not be wronged!
