Chapter 266 Benefits driven by military uniform procurement

After some discussions between Chongzhen and his son, in order to unify and coordinate Jiangnan, Lu Mou appointed Zhang Shenyan, the former governor of Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan, who had rich experience in suppressing bandits and knew military skills, as Jiangnan governor, commanding and dispatching the entire Jiangnan army, and preparing to attack Li Chuang. Strike. Realize the campaign to regain Jiangxi, Zhejiang, and Fujian.

Zhang Shenyan, no matter in terms of qualifications, ability, or prestige, he can suppress all the proud soldiers and generals in the south.

Zhang Shenyan left without any complaints and took up his post in Jiangnan under the protection of Yang Songshan.

Now, it's up to Lu Mou to arrange the 50,000 Jiangnan soldiers. Neither his father nor his brother care about this matter, so Lu Mou can only do it himself.

The arrival of 50,000 Jiangnan soldiers increased the confidence of the military and civilians in defeating the Manchus. But there are many things that need to be addressed quickly.

When the soldiers from the south came this time, they were wearing the southern cotton-padded clothes to keep out the cold, which were very thin. When you come to the north, the cold wind from the north will blow through.

Especially when he was about to guard the Great Wall, standing on the Great Wall and facing the biting cold wind blowing from Siberia, Lu Mou did not want to turn these soldiers into ice sculptures.

And the cotton socks and straw sandals they wear are even worse in the north. Some soldiers are now suffering from frostbite on their feet.

Zhang Huangyan asked them to wear straw sandals, not because they were being harshly abused, but because these shoes were more slip-resistant when walking on the ridges of rice fields in the south.

But not in the north.

Therefore, making cotton-padded clothes and shoes for them has become the most important task.

According to the current system, 5 sets of inner and outer cotton-padded clothes must be prepared for the 10 Southern troops. This is a huge purchase amount.

Now Lu Mou does not use the fixed imperial merchant system for government procurement, but adopts a direct bidding system from manufacturers.

The reason why Xiahou and Zhou are not connected directly and seamlessly is because there is an intermediary. Lü Mou felt distressed because he let the middleman earn the price difference and spent money unnecessarily. The workshop owner still had not received the benefits and had the capital to expand the scale of production.

So Lu Mou held a meeting with the bosses of Beijing and Tongzhou quilt factories in the lobby of the Ministry of Household Affairs to start bidding for production.

The on-site bidding system not only ensures low prices and stable quality during bidding. At the same time, there will be no officials to interfere with each other, no middlemen to take everything, and there will be no corruption.

But this time the situation is different. Because the time is really tight and the tasks are heavy, Lu Mou needs at least 10 workshops to cooperate this time to meet his needs in terms of quality, quantity, and time.

Facing the bosses of various garment factories gathered together, Lu Mou announced: "The first thing we need to order this time is the urgently needed 10 new cotton-padded clothes and shoes. The time is really tight and the task is heavy. For this, I need 10 Factory cooperation."

The bosses below were whispering to each other, choosing partners they liked, and preparing to join forces.

"After these 10 sets of cotton-padded clothes are finished, our court will still order from you this spring and summer clothes, at least one million sets."

As soon as this production quantity came out, all the bosses immediately became excited and their eyes turned red.

This is a huge order that the government has never issued to the public. These orders will once again give birth to the private industry that has already sprouted capitalism, making a qualitative leap. The catalyst of science and technology in the history of war, military industry and military supplies will drive the development of industry and mining.

Therefore, every war will give birth to several industrial giants, such as Krupp in Germany, Boeing in the United States, and the Republic of China - forget it, say what he does, say he is troublesome.

Therefore, this time Lu Mou planned to do what later generations failed to do, and now he has to make up for the lesson of war stimulating industrial development.

"The current cotton clothes I need are time-consuming and heavy-duty. For this reason, I have decided to allocate 30% of the funds to you in order to alleviate your funding and manpower problems."

Everyone is grateful to the prince for understanding people in this way.

"As for the military uniforms in the later period, although there is plenty of time, the quantity is huge. Including the inner and outer clothing of the soldiers, it is estimated that you are sitting in many handicraft workshops, and it is beyond your capabilities. And the scattered processing will cause uneven quality of materials. For this reason, I suggest that there are some small handicraft workshops that can join forces to support each other. In order to support your expansion of industrial scale, I have decided to give priority to these joint-stock factories with large scale. "

This is almost forcing others to form a joint venture to make it bigger. It is best to create a clothing group.

"The Central Bank will give priority and relax conditions to provide loans to such cluster factories to support you. As long as there are more than five shareholders, factories will enjoy the preferential policies stipulated by this king."

This fresh idea immediately brightened the eyes of the businessmen present.

Lu Mou's idea was to use war to stimulate the development of industry and use this joint-stock method to form one industrial group after another with strong capital.

Isn’t capitalism just sprouting? Well, I will water and fertilize you, and I will encourage you to grow.

"For this reason, in order to promote your cooperative operation and expand the scale of the factory, I have specially allocated a piece of land to build an industrial park in Tianjin New City. You are welcome to invest and set up factories there. If you open a factory in the industrial park, you will enjoy The land transfer price is preferential. For example, the housing land in Tianjin Port and Tianjin City is 20 silver dollars each, but in this industrial park, I only charge you 100 yuan for each acre of land. And it is in the industrial park. The factories will enjoy the government's three-year tax exemption policy, and officials are not allowed to interfere with anything in the industrial park except for normal management and infrastructure construction. If anyone dares to eat the workshops and factories in the industrial park. If you ask for a card, my Dongchang Fanzi will make his butt sore and he will never be able to sit in that position again.”

As soon as this policy came out, it immediately aroused the unanimous support of all factory owners.

One of the factory owners stood up and asked cautiously: "Prince Qi, my in-laws have a workshop that makes stinky tofu. Can I build a factory in your industrial park?"

Lu Mou nodded: "Of course I welcome it. No matter what factory moves there, he will enjoy the favorable policies in the industrial park."

The workshop owner immediately made a calculation in his mind: "The stinky tofu workshop opened by my in-laws in Beijing cannot be expanded due to the high land price in Beijing. And one acre of land in the industrial park only costs 100 yuan. And this in-laws are in Beijing. The small workshop I own can be sold for 500 silver dollars as soon as it is resold. By buying two acres of land, the area can be expanded. After deducting the money for building the factory, the capital will also be increased. This is really killing two birds with one stone. Inform him of the good news.

The release of these supporting policies by Lu Mou was no longer just watering and fertilizing the sprouts of capitalism that had appeared in the Ming Dynasty. It was like giving more than a dozen bowls of chicken blood. It was a perverted and crazy growth.

After getting rid of the military uniforms, they replaced all the weapons in the hands of these soldiers with long spears that were more conducive to defending the city in the cold weapon era. They would kill the enemies who climbed up the city one by one and stab them to the core.

After everything was ready, the southern team officially arrived at the border and took over the guard of the Great Wall.

After this war, I don’t know how many athletes from the south spilled their blood on the Great Wall and never returned to the warm south.
