"Jenny spinning machine?" Liu Yuzhi frowned, thinking hard, but still had no impression, "Your Majesty, the girl has only been to Aden the farthest. Is Jenny spinning machine produced in Ottoman country?"
"No," Zhu Youjian shook his head. "It's much farther than this. It should be in the West." Zhu Youjian worried that Li Yusheng would go to the West in the future. He really looked for this kind of spinning machine that has not yet appeared, but he dare not say anything. The exact country name.
Liu Xianzhi no longer entangled the origin of Jenny's spinning machine. She values the role more. Since it can be transmitted from the distant West to Daming, it must be a good thing to enter Zhu Youjian's method. "Your Majesty, what is the use of Jenny's spinning machine. "
"I'm afraid that it will scare Miss Liu." Zhu Youjian first let out a wild statement, and also reminded Liu Yuzhi, "Normally spinning machine, there is only one spindle, right?"
"Does the Jenny spinning machine have two spindles?" Liu Xianzhi had a vague expectation in her heart. If this is the case, the spinning speed will be doubled and the cost will be drastically reduced.
"Two? How come?" Zhu Youjian deliberately sipped chewing tea.
"It turns out that this is not the case?" Liu Yuzhi's face was disappointed. Since it is not two spindles, why is it so appetite
"The most old-fashioned Jenny spinning machine has eight spindles. After improvements by later generations, it can now reach fifteen spindles at most." Zhu Youjian coughed lightly, tasting the tea without looking at Liu Xiangzhi.
"Eight? Fifteen?" As expected by Zhu Youjian, Liu Xianzhi's mouth opened like a hippopotamus, and her glutinous teeth were completely exposed to the air, and she didn't look like a lady at all.
"Of course it is true. I am the emperor. With all my words, how can I be innocent to make Miss Liu happy?" Zhu Youjian raised his face and looked upset.
"Your Majesty..." Liu Bingzhong felt that this lawless daughter was in trouble. He was about to leave his seat and plead with Zhu Youjian. Liu Yuzhi over there had already knelt down in front of Zhu Youjian, "Your Majesty, you know you are wrong, I beg your majesty to punish. "
"Punishment is forgiven, get up," Zhu Youjian put down the tea, "It's no wonder Miss Liu doesn't believe it, it's too unbelievable to say..."
"That's right," Liu Yuzhi took his seat again, and she looked at Zhu Youjian with eager eyes, "Your Majesty, where is the Jenny spinning machine? Is it in the palace?"
"No," Zhu Youjian also felt a little regretful. He had forgotten about this earlier. If Zhu Youxiao was still alive, with his woodworking skills, he might be able to build a Jenny spinning machine, but Zhu Youxiao was already dead. "Originally, Daming's investigation was brought back to China with the drawings of Jenny Spinning Machine, but it's a pity..."
"What a pity? Did he escape with the blueprint?" Liu Yuzhi's nose flicked, obviously eager to know the following.
"I can't escape," Zhu Youjian also shook his head and sighed, "but he accidentally fell into the sea on his way back to the country, and the drawings were soaked in sea water and turned to ashes."
"Ah..." Liu Yuzhi screamed unexpectedly, "Then... Then he still has some impressions?"
"This investigator later died for the country, but he once dictated the outline of the drawing to me. Because the words were unclear, I didn't completely clear the structure of the Jenny spinning machine." The story is complete, and Zhu Youjian also put it down. Heart comes.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty... Do you remember the general appearance of Jenny's spinning machine?" Liu Xianzhi asked Zhu Youjian carefully.
"Zhier must not be rude. Your Majesty manages everything. How can you remember a little Jenny spinning machine?" Although Liu Bingzhong was also eager to get Jenny spinning machine, he still drank his daughter.
"Father..." Liu Xianzhi protested in a low voice, "Your Majesty is good at everything. Isn't that for the benefit of the people? With the Jenny spinning machine, the factory can save a lot of labor costs. Isn't this just for the benefit of the people?"
"Haha," Zhu Youzhen originally provided Liu Bingzhong with the direction of research and let them explore on their own, but Liu Yuzhi was so persistent, and he was very reasonable. "Unfortunately, I only know some simple structures, and I don't know whether it can be manufactured. come out."
Liu Yuzhijian Zhu Youjian was not angry, and he took a step forward, "Then your Majesty can try it?"
"Try it? Okay, if it can really benefit the people, I might as well try it." Zhu Youjian had a headache when he encountered such a persistent little girl. He was really not sure whether he could build a Jenny spinning machine. "
"Try more, maybe it's not always possible to make it," Liu Xianzhi said to Liu Bingzhong again: "Daddy stay and try with your Majesty. Once you get the result, you can take it to Jiangnan."
"Zhi'er is talking nonsense, this is the forbidden palace, how can dad stay?" Liu Bingzhong quickly pleaded guilty to Zhu Youzhen: "Zhi'er is young and doesn't understand the rules of the palace. Please forgive her for her disrespect."
"It’s not guilty if you don’t know, Dongzhu Liu don’t have to worry." Zhu Youjian was really impressed by this persistent Miss Liu, but the perseverance is not bad at all. If the Jenny spinning machine can be built, it will be improved in the future, as well as weaving. The machine might be realized in this little girl.
"Daddy, let me stay," Liu Yuzhi looked firm, and apparently made a lot of determination. "I am a woman, and I am a palace maid. Shouldn't I violate the rules of the palace?" She looked at Zhu. By inspection, it turned into a begging look.
Zhu Youzhen really couldn't bear to refuse. Perhaps today's refusal would cost Daming a top engineer, but he still asked: "Miss Liu, you are not a craftsman. What can you do if you stay?"
Liu Xianzhi seemed to be determined, "Your Majesty, although the maiden is not a craftsman, but the maiden is familiar with spinning machines and knows the function of every piece of wood on the spinning machine. Jenny spinning machines are also developed on the basis of ordinary spinning machines. You can remind your Majesty at any time if you have a national girl.
"Zhi'er!" Liu Bing interrupted to shout, "Daddy is spoiled for you."
"Father..." Liu Yuzhijiao yelled and spoiled Liu Bingzhong, "Don't you often lament that you have no children? Today, the daughter wants to let her father see that the daughter can do things that the son can't do, so please make your daughter perfect! "
"Zhi'er, this is the imperial palace. Before your majesty, don't mess around, don't make your majesty embarrassed." Liu Bingzhong gave no mercy to Xiang Xiyu, he gave Liu Yuzhi a fierce look.
"Your Majesty," Liu Yuzhi saw that her father refused to follow her, so she had to ask Zhu Youjian for help. She had forgotten the general and hated him to death. "Did the people embarrass your Majesty?"
"Haha, haha," Zhu Youjian laughed a few times, "There is no embarrassment, as long as your father allows it."
"Father," Liu Yuzhi's little head was like a splashing drum, wandering between Zhu Youjian and her father, "Look, your Majesty said it won't be embarrassing, did you hear it?"
"Hey Zhier, let's go home and study slowly, and don't delay your majesty's business." Liu Bingzhong seemed to coax the child, and in front of Zhu Youjian, he did not dare to force it too much.
"Daddy forgot. Except your Majesty, no one knows about Jenny spinning machine. Can Daddy make Jenny spinning machine out of thin air?"
"This... Your Majesty..." Liu Bingzhong couldn't help but looked at Zhu Youjian for help, and Liu Yuzhi also happened to cast a grateful look at Zhu Youjian.
Zhu Youjian shook his head and smiled bitterly. He had to say to Liu Bingzhong, "Since Ms. Liu has decided, it is better to... let her stay. I promise that, no matter what the outcome is, I will send Jin Yiwei back to Miss Liu in a month. Home."
"Father, you see, your Majesty has arranged it. Does Dad want to go against your majesty's will?" Liu Yuzhi patted Liu Bingzhong's back, letting him go home first.
"Hey..." An inexplicable throbbing flashed in Liu Bingzhong's eyes. He opened his mouth to say something, but finally didn't say it. He had to sigh, and finally just confessed to Liu Xianzhi: "Don't poke Daddy Louzi. Otherwise, don't blame Dad for not letting you go home."
"I see, dad." Liu Yuzhi leaned on Liu Bingzhong's shoulder. I'm so behaved. Don't you worry about me
While Liu Bingzhong confessed to his daughter, Li Yusheng remembered what Zhu Youjian had said before, "Your Majesty, what else can you do to make the Caomin wait to earn money?"
"Ao, isn’t the owner Li engaged in overseas trade? Is the owner Li also ready to return to land?" Zhu Youjian asked. You have tasted the huge profits of overseas trade, and you all want to return to land. Is it true that the Han people Don’t you have a bit of adventurous and pioneering spirit
"His Majesty, Cao Min will continue to engage in overseas trade for the time being, but Cao Min has a business relative named Huang Li. He has not found any good business recently, and he has almost laid off at home. Huang Li entrusted Cao Min to pay attention to suitable businesses."
"Huang Li? Who is this person? What is his economic strength?" Zhu Youjian had never met Huang Li. He didn't trust him at all, but the reform of the five provinces in the middle of the Ming Dynasty and the five provinces in the south requires the support of businessmen. Li Yusheng's recommendation, let's take a look at his details for now.
"Your Majesty, Huang Li is a native of Guangzhou. The times are businessmen. After several generations of accumulation, the family property is quite abundant. According to the estimation of the grassroots, the family property should be more than two million. If you add the backing of the family, it should be more than this number." Li Yusheng knew. Those with poor economic strength will definitely not be allowed to get caught.
"Two million taels? The family property should be enough, as long as you can take out one million cash, you can live in Guangzhou, and the location is also good," Huang Li met Zhu Youzhen's expectations, "How is this character, Li Dongzhu said To be honest, shrewd or kind?"
"His Majesty, this person has heard and witnessed in the mall since he was a child. Naturally, he has the shrewdness of a businessman," Li Yusheng paused for a while. "If it comes to kindness, at least he is not a cunning person. Otherwise, the Cao Min would not dare recommend this person to his Majesty. "
"Since you are a shrewd businessman, why are you now at home? Is there anything wrong?" Zhu Youzhen didn't understand. An excellent businessman should have more than one business, so how could he be in a state of unemployed
"His Majesty, Huang Li was originally engaged in the banking and pawn industry, but these industries are now in a period of saturation. Not only is it difficult to expand, but it is also difficult to maintain the original profit. That's why Huang Li has the idea of changing the business."
"Banks, pawns," Zhu Youjian muttered. This is the financial industry in the Ming Dynasty and the talents Zhu Youjian needed. "If this is the case, then I will show Huang Li a clear path."
