Daming: I am the most powerful emperor grandson, please abdicate the throne

Chapter 514: Put the fault on His Highness

Shen Bin felt that he had been defeated again.

Today's factory visit must be to deal with his recruitment incident and let him see what a real factory is.

To a large extent, machine production can replace a large number of workers. The most important thing is that the machines do not need to rest and can continuously produce products, which is much better than workers.

Shen Bin never dreamed that Zhu Xuan was so powerful and could make such magical things. He also wanted to force Zhu Xuan to beg for himself by monopolizing the workers in Suzhou. Only now did he realize how naive this idea was.

I'm afraid Zhu Xuan doesn't take his recruitment into consideration at all, and just told him today that monopolizing weavers is useless.

Shen Bin was stunned, his whole body was stunned.

Not only him, but also Zhang Mingjiang and the others.

But they were secretly glad that they did not fight too hard with Zhu Xuan, and in the end they gave the raw silk to Zhu Xuan at a low price, so the loss was not serious.

Ever since, their eyes fell on Shen Bin.

It seems to be saying that the Shen family has suffered a loss this time.

"His Highness' abilities are beyond our imagination!"

Li Jun said with admiration: "I have long heard that His Highness has a science pavilion, which can produce many things that we can't imagine without manpower. It turns out that they are all true."

"Fortunately, we sold all the raw silk to His Highness."

Zhang Mingjiang lamented that the loss was not very serious.

But such words sounded to Shen Bin as if he were mocking himself. Faced with this situation, he couldn't get angry.

Finally, he left in despair.

Zhao Jian said: "What you said is a little too much, and it has irritated Brother Shen."

Li Jun shook his head and said: "We are also doing it for Brother Shen's benefit. We want to stimulate him and make him wake up as soon as possible, so as not to keep confronting His Highness."

"Behind His Highness is the Ming Dynasty royal family. How can we businessmen win against the Ming Dynasty?"

"Since His Highness has said that he will establish a trading port to guide us in doing business, there is no need to fight. We can just wait for His Highness's arrangements."

Zhang Mingjiang said.

They sighed and left before seeing the whole thing.

Other people who came to visit, including many weavers, had never seen such a scene before and were shocked.

Return to Shen's house.

Shen Bin walked back and forth, his face so gloomy that he almost dripped water.

How to do?
  What else can I do?
  He has a monopoly on the weavers in Suzhou Prefecture. With so many workers here, he doesn’t even have raw silk anymore. What will he do with these workers? How to make up for the losses?

If all the workers are driven away, the reputation of the Shen family will be over in Suzhou.

If there is a chance to weave again in the future, it is unlikely that any weaver will be willing to apply for the job. After all, this is a very serious scandal.

"master."

The steward next to him felt distressed when he saw Shen Bin acting like this: "How about we dismiss all the weavers and put the fault on His Highness the Young Emperor?"

"How to push it out? Push it out..."

Shen Bin's eyes lit up, and he finally realized the usefulness of the housekeeper's idea, and burst into laughter.

He felt like he was doing it again.

If I do this, let’s see how your little grandson responds.

-

The factory tour is not over yet.

There was a wave of opposition within Wuxian County against machine reeling and spinning.

Driven by Shen Bin, and many of them had seen the speed and convenience of the machine, the weavers felt a sense of crisis.

They also know that if machines replace labor, they will lose opportunities to make a living.

Not to mention Suzhou, workers in the entire Jiangnan region are useless and do not know what to do. In the end, they may starve to death.

Ever since, parades began to appear in Wu County.

Those weavers know the law and do not blame everyone.

If you don’t even have the opportunity to make a living, why do you care about the law?

Don't care at all.

They took to the streets in droves, shouting against the machine, against the little emperors. They wanted to work, to feed their families, to survive, and not to be replaced.

Once the number of people increased, the Suzhou government officials were of no use to the marchers. Even if the soldiers from the guardhouse came, they could only stand on the street and watch, not daring to do anything.

Those who marched quickly gathered in the government office, and the voices of opposition hit the government office like an overwhelming force, carrying the opposition to the end.

Zhou Anyan's head got bigger.

When Your Highness came to Suzhou, he really knew how to do things.

If he messes around here, he might just slap his butt and run away in the end. The only ones who feel uncomfortable are their local officials, who don't know what to do in the face of this situation.

"Your Highness, what should we... do?"

Zhou Anyan asked uneasily as he stood in front of Zhu Xuan.

When Zhu Xuan heard those shouts, he didn't panic or panic. He was completely in the plan. He said calmly: "Master Zhou, don't panic. Cen Jing will make arrangements. I can solve this matter within today."

"Your Highness can really solve it?"

Zhou Anyan asked worriedly.

"Can I still lie to you?"

Zhu Xuan patted him on the shoulder and said: "Take a group of government servants out to help Cen Jing maintain order. I will solve it for you right away."

Zhou Anyan suddenly felt stable.

Arrangements will be made immediately.

The gate of the government office opened quickly.

Cen Jing asked his servants to bring out a table, then placed a stack of papers facing the weavers in the procession.

The weavers saw someone coming out and stopped shouting for a moment.

They all looked towards Cen Jing.

"Everyone listen."

"Who did you hear that His Highness doesn't need workers and can use machines to replace workers?"

"absurd!"

"Your Highness, we are looking for workers everywhere, but we are worried that we can't find anyone."

"Since you are all here, it's best. I'll start recruiting workers right away. The wages are two taels of silver a month. Those who need it will line up and come to register their names."

"We can accept as many people as you come, and no one will be left behind."

Cen Jing said loudly.

Wow……

When Cen Jing finished speaking, the weavers present suddenly became excited.

There was an uproar.

You must know that the wages paid by the Shen family are only one or two taels of silver.

Zhu Xuan directly gave him two taels of silver.

Not only did the wages beat the Shen family instantly, but they also hired as many as they came, which directly ignited the enthusiasm of the workers.

"I'll sign up, I'll sign up now..."

"I'm coming too, my name is Liu Xiaoer!"

"my name is……"

The employees changed from the state of just marching to rushing to sign up, and rushed to Cen Jing one after another.

"Everyone, please be quiet, line up, don't mess around!"

Upon seeing this, Zhou Anyan immediately brought out the Yamen servants to maintain discipline.

His Highness is really powerful. By simply doing a few things, he was able to knock Suzhou merchants to the ground and eliminate all their advantages.

Everything is within Zhu Xuan's control.

Opposite the government office, there is an inn.

At this time, Shen Bin was standing on the second floor of the inn, near the window. He looked out and saw everything in front of the government office.

A feeling of despair filled his whole body.

Failed again.

How is it possible, it failed again?
