Zhu Youjian couldn't laugh or cry for a while. He will make these technologies public sooner or later, but now is not the time. At least after these products enter foreign markets and earn enough money, even if they want to disclose the technology, they are still sold to Daming's limited internal manufacturers.

But Liu Bingzhong is not a suitable candidate.

Zhu Youjian threw a sunny smile at Liu Yuzhi, "The daughter of the Liu family has more industries that can make money. It is far from these few trades. As long as I give some pointers at random, the enemy will not dare to say that it is rich. Earning a high dowry for you shouldn't be a problem."

"Your Majesty, you..." Liu Yuzhi's face flushed and she bit her silver teeth, but Zhu Youjian was the emperor. She could only bow her head bitterly and vowed never to talk to this frivolous emperor again.

Liu Bingzhong, Li Yusheng, and Li Yusheng’s son, Li Zhonggui, naturally did not dare to complain about Liu Xianzhi, and they just smiled scornfully.

"Liu Dongzhu, you have considered it, do you want to continue your textile business or open another door?" Zhu Youjian turned his gaze to Liu Bingzhong, thinking that he is still running the business safely, "Well, Dongzhu Liu, you still operate textiles, this Be familiar with it."

"Your Majesty, although this business is familiar, the profits of the entire business are already very Weibo." Liu Bingzhong hopes that Zhu Youjian will give a unique business, like his cement, glass, perfume, soap, without competitors, he can set prices at his discretion. , He looked at Zhu Youzhen pitifully, "Your Majesty..."

"Don’t worry, Dongzhu Liu, if he is willing to work hard, the profit will naturally not be too low," Zhu Youjian first let Liu Bingzhong take a pill. "Dongzhu Liu is engaged in spinning, weaving, and clothing. Is it a link in spinning, weaving, and clothing? All procedures?"

Listening to Zhu Youjian's explanation of the three basic procedures of the textile industry, Liu Bingzhong's eyes sparkled with surprise. Even Liu Xianzhi, who was angry just now, secretly looked at Zhu Youjian. It seems that he is a monster. Liu Bingzhong said, "Your Majesty, the grassroots There is more than one textile factory. There are spinning factories and weaving factories, but there are not many garment factories."

"Oh," Zhu Youjian said lightly, "Since Liu Dong has a lot of factories and has invested heavily in the textile industry, I will teach you a way, and profits will definitely increase substantially."

"Your Majesty, is there such a way?" Liu Bingzhong was originally a little skeptical. Many people in the textile industry didn't know that Zhu Youjian, a layman, could there be such a way? But thinking that Zhu Youjian could tell the basic procedures of the textile industry, maybe the young emperor had nothing to do, and he might start subordinate research.

Although Liu Xianzhi looked away from Zhu Youjian's face, she, like Li Yusheng and his son, had long been waiting for Zhu Youjian's golden words.

"Of course there are methods, there are three main ones, one is large-scale operation." Zhu Youjian didn't know whether Liu Bingzhong understood these terms, but he didn't know the terminology of this business.

"Scaling operation? Your Majesty, Cao Min has never heard of it. I don't know what it means?" Liu Bingzhong really didn't understand.

"Scaling operation is to increase the size of the factory, which can save costs," Zhu Youzhen knew the empty narrative, and Liu Bingzhong certainly didn't believe it. "For example, if you have ten textile factories, they are now merged into one, although the number of workers remains the same. But the number of supervisors and accountants will definitely decrease, and even those who guard the warehouse will also save nine shares."

"Your Majesty, the Caomin understands a little bit. If the staff is streamlined, the staff will be saved." Liu Bingzhong said this, but in his heart he calculated that these non-production staff would not save much cost.

"This is a saving in personnel," Zhu Youzhen is thinking about the various companies he has worked in. "There is also room for saving in other aspects. For example, workers eat in the factory at noon, and the food is less, the workers are not full, and the food is too much. , There must be some waste. If the workers are concentrated in one factory, although waste still exists, there is only one factory waste, which is naturally much less than the waste in ten factories."

"..."

"In addition, there will be savings in plant, land, and transportation, and so on."

"Your Majesty, if you really did this, about how much cost can you save?" Liu Xianzhi has forgotten her vow just now.

"If the factory establishes relevant systems and implements them strictly, at least 30% of the cost can be saved," Zhu Youjian extended three fingers to the curious Miss Liu. "Don't underestimate the 30% cost. Your goods are on the market. At that time, if it is 10% cheaper than others, it is possible to run on other people’s goods."

Liu Yuzhi was still a little unhappy with Zhu Youjian in her heart. She did not forget to retort: "Your Majesty, if other people's goods can't be sold, don't you have to go bankrupt? Your Majesty just meant it, isn't it "the business is also right"

"Miss Liu, what I mean is that business is also good," Zhu Youjian also felt that this Miss Liu was a little bold, and even dared to refute herself repeatedly, "but that is for the country and the people, not for competitors. Yes, Ms. Liu likes to travel in mountains and water. Do you know the'Law of the Jungle'?"

"Your Majesty, what is the law of the jungle?" Miss Liu's arrogant pride has been completely suppressed by Zhu Youjian's erudition.

"The law of the jungle is the rule in the jungle, that is, the rule that exists in nature," Zhu Youjian knows that if he goes on like this, those present here will definitely not understand, "For example, when a tiger is hungry, it must prey on antelope."

"Are there any rules here?" Liu Xianzhi tilted his head and didn't want to understand for a long time.

"Of course there are rules here," Zhu Youjian shook his head with a look of contempt. "If the tiger does not prey on the antelope, it will have to starve to death by itself. If it preys on the antelope, the antelope will die. In this way, no matter what, There is always an animal dying. Although cruel, it is the law of nature, and no one can change it."

Liu Xianzhi seemed to have a sense, narrowed his gaze, and looked thoughtful.

"Moreover, when tigers hunt for food, they always look for old, weak, injured antelopes. Only strong antelopes can escape their lives." Zhu Youjian paused, "Ms. Liu, what are the rules here?"

"The law?" Liu Yuzhi seemed to feel something, but he couldn't describe it in words for a while, and his face flushed with anxiety.

"The weak eat the strong, the fittest survive!" Zhu Youjian's words were like a blockbuster.

Liu Xianzhi was so excited that she almost jumped up, "That's what it means, only the strong can survive!" But she found that this was the rule that Zhu Youjian had summed up. This was the person she had seen the least far away, and the excitement in her eyes quickly disappeared. As it faded, she glanced at Zhu Youjian disappointedly, then slowly lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Of course, no matter how vicious and hungry the tiger is, it will not swallow its own children. The so-called'tiger poison does not eat children'. Smart Miss Liu, do you understand what I mean now?" Zhu Youjian looked at Liu Yuzhi with a smile. Found that she was still in a daze.

"Ah..." Liu Yuzhi obviously didn't hear what Zhu Youjian said just now.

"Your Majesty, the Caomin understands," Liu Bing Zhongjiang took the flower head. "Businessmen are like tigers. In the shopping malls, they are the weak and the strong. Even if they defeat their opponents, they must be "tiger poison" in the treatment of the people and the court. No food'."

"Liu Dongzhu is right, that's the case," Zhu Youjian added: "What I mean is that you don't have to knock down your competitors. Most of the time, you still have to cooperate, just like a tiger. If you kill all the antelopes, When it's dead, what will it eat next meal? Only opponents who can't keep up with the progress of the times, like those old, weak and sick sheep, will be eaten by tigers.

"Your Majesty, the Caomin understands, the Caomin would like to thank your Majesty for his teachings." Liu Bingzhong is grateful from the bottom of his heart. He has been in the mall for so many years. He is not as young as Zhu Youjian, who has never set foot in the mall. Yeah!

"Your Majesty only said one, so is there a second?" It seems that Liu Yuzhi has firmly imprinted every word of Zhu Youjian on her heart.

"Of course there are two, Miss Liu, don't worry," Zhu Youjian looked at Liu Xianzhi very playfully, and then continued: "Second, use assembly line production."

"What is the assembly line? Do you need water?" Liu Xianzhi frowned, and the two faint and slender eyebrows were almost in the first quarter.

“As the name suggests, it’s like running water, and the workers each take up their duties,” Zhu Youzhen almost smiled. From Liu Yuzhi’s still frowning brows, she knew she still didn’t understand. Each worker cuts clothes, but divides the workers into groups. One group cuts the sleeves, one group cuts the collar, one group cuts the body, and the other group cuts nothing, but divides the sleeves, collars, Fit the body together to make a ready-to-wear garment."

"Your Majesty, the advantage of doing this is..." Although Liu Yuzhi was thinking hard, she was like her father and didn't understand.

"There are many advantages to doing this. First of all, every worker only needs to learn one of the techniques, and he can generally become a skilled hand in half an hour. In the future, he will only use this technique. Come sooner."

Liu Yuzhi couldn't help nodding, but Li Zhonggui blurted out: "The grassroots understand, this can save time and reduce labor costs in disguise."

Liu Xianzhi glanced at Li Zhonggui, "What do your children know? Listen to your Majesty."

Li Zhonggui shrank, he shrank his neck and became a good student obediently.

Zhu Youjian held back a smile and continued: "Secondly, the technology of the factory is not easy to drain, because every worker will not have complete skills. If complete skills are needed, a lot of workers’ cooperation is needed-but the garment industry seems to There are no secrets."

Liu Xianzhi asked suddenly: "Your Majesty's factory, does this method keep secrets?"

Zhu Youjian laughed, "This is also a way to keep secrets. You don't know. Now there are many factories in the five northern provinces that use this method to improve the work efficiency of workers. It seems that you have fallen behind. ."

"Your Majesty, what is work efficiency?" Miss Liu Xianzhi opened her eyes today, and Zhu Youjian's constant new terms made her feel that her brain was not enough.

"Oh, work efficiency means that you can produce more products in the same time. Just like Li Gongzi said, to produce the same products, you can save time and cost." Zhu Youjian also gave Li Zhonggui a compliment. Look.

Li Zhonggui was praised by Zhu Youjian, and he was overjoyed, and he glanced at Liu Xianzhi. Liu Yuzhi immediately shot him back with a roll of eyes, scared him to lower his head and vent his horns of his clothes, Liu Yuzhi completely gained the upper hand, then snorted and turned his head to Zhu Youzhen, "Your Majesty, are there any more?"

"Yes, of course," Zhu Youjian thought for a while, "Miss Liu, have you ever been to the West with the caravan, have you heard of'Jenny Spinning Machine'?"
