Chapter 244

Qingzhou equipment department.

The promulgation of anti elaboration laws and the popularization of people's knowledge about elaboration made the various forces hidden in Qingzhou unable to lift their heads.

At the same time, in order to further prevent Qingzhou's technology from being stolen, Xiao Ming plans to refine various types of technical work.

For example, in the production of artillery, steel refining, iron mold manufacturing, later pouring and shell production are completely independent. In each process, the types of work are divided in detail. Each craftsman is only responsible for part of the process, and the others are not involved at all.

In this way, it will greatly reduce the risk of technology theft.

This day, Xiao Ming gave Chen Wenlong his carefully designed working procedure, and asked him to rectify the equipment department according to the working procedure.

After taking over the thick pamphlet, Chen Wenlong admired Xiao Ming more and more. During this period, all kinds of books entered the equipment department, the military workshop, and the Bowen College from king Qi's mansion. They were all written down by Xiao Ming with one stroke and published by the newspaper.

In the state of Dayu, books are always very precious, but in Qingzhou, the cost of books is greatly reduced.

After handing the process manual to Chen Wenlong, Xiao Ming asked, "can Huang Daopo's loom be delivered now?"

"No problem, your highness. I'm going to tell you about it." Chen Wenlong takes Xiao Ming to the backyard of the equipment department, where 100 sets of looms are placed.

This is the well-known Huang Daopo loom, a loom that turns single thread into multi thread. Once this loom is put into use, the efficiency of Qingzhou's textile industry will be increased by more than ten times.

Xiao Ming is now waiting for the loom, and the textile workshops of aster and green rose are waiting. Once the loom is put into use, his sail warship will not have a headache because of the sail.

"Take them all away. I will use them now." Xiao Ming is happy and says to Chen Wenlong.

With all the looms, Xiao Ming went back to the palace. When he saw the looms coming, aster and lvluo ran out of the palace excitedly.

"Your Highness, is this what you call the Wong Tao Po loom?" Said the aster excitedly.

Both lvluo and aster are proficient in women's weaving. They follow the princess and often do some needlework with her. Lvluo touches the aster and says, "sister, this loom can spin ten threads at the same time. Look at the shuttle."

Aster saw, immediately laughed, "Your Highness, take these looms to the workshop, I can't wait to try."

Qingzhou is a big city. Heavy industries such as iron and steel were moved outside the city by Xiao Ming. However, the weaving industry belongs to light industry, so the workshops are inside the city. This is also Xiao Ming's future industrial planning. Heavy industry is outside and light industry is inside.

In addition, for the convenience of aster and lvluo, they often supervise the textile workshop. This workshop is not far away from the palace. It is only two folk workshops. In this folk workshop, there is a large courtyard with five rows of long brick houses.

At the textile workshop, Xiao Ming had the loom moved in.

"In the future, the textile mill will depend on you. The soldiers of Qingzhou army are waiting for your uniform?" Now the textile workshop is fully equipped, Xiao Ming said with a smile.

Aster graciously said: "Your Highness, if this loom is really as magical as you say, this matter is still very simple for us."

"Don't talk big. I always look at practical work." Xiao Ming is smiling.

Aster vomits his tongue, pulls lvluo and sits in front of a Zodiac loom, trying to control it.

Familiar with Huang Daopo's loom, aster said: "Your Highness, since this is the case, we have called people here. What should we do about cotton?"

"Li Kaiyuan and I will try our best to provide enough cotton. You are only responsible for weaving." Xiao Ming frowned.

Aster and green rose nodded, two people discussed, division of labor to prepare textile workshop started.

Xiao Ming went to the governor's office and called Li Kaiyuan over.

"Your Highness, if we want to promote cotton planting, we should start now, otherwise it will be too late after winter." Pang Yukun said to Xiao Ming.

Once the textile workshop is established, this will be the beginning of Qingzhou textile industry. In the later stage, once the steam engine comes out, he will have the opportunity to produce Jennie's textile machine. At that time, the textile industry will need more cotton. After all, he wants to monopolize the textile industry.

"Li Kaiyuan, do you hear me? This cotton seed is up to you. " Xiao Ming said to Li Kaiyuan.

Hearing this, Li Kaiyuan said with a wry smile, "Your Highness, it's difficult to do this. Now the cotton planting in Dayu is mainly in the south, and the main source of cotton is the fiefdom of the king of Chu. During this period, our chamber of Commerce has been travelling to Dayu, and there are many difficulties in the fiefdom of the king of Chu. Now we go to buy cotton and cotton seeds. Will the king of Chu agree?"

The king of Chu, the mother's family of the third prince, has always been very ambitious. The four vassal kings of different surnames, Chuyan in the South and Zhaoliang in the north, are the most dangerous. The other three families are always honest and never like to make trouble.

Pang Yukun nodded, "Li Kaiyuan's words are right, but at this time the king of Chu must also ask for his highness?""You're talking about artillery?" asked Xiao Ming.

Pang Yukun nodded, "since the cotton was introduced into the state of Dayu, it has been planted in the south. The king of Chu, in particular, has always attached great importance to the cultivation of cotton, and the state of Chu is rich in cloth. This alone has made the king of Chu rich in income. Therefore, the king of Chu has always been very vigilant about the purchase of cotton seeds by foreigners, and even if we introduce cotton, it will take some time for the cultivation and promotion, During this period, cotton can only be purchased from the state of Chu. "

"Well, what you said is reasonable, but my father is still hesitating whether to give artillery to the king of Wei and the king of Chu. If we agree, we can handle him. If we don't agree, we can only be handled by the king of Chu." Xiao Ming said.

This cotton incident once again made Xiao Ming feel constrained. Cotton was introduced to Chongqing from the land of Tianzhu, so cotton was first planted in the south, while there were few places to plant cotton in the north.

It can be said that the prosperity of the South also has a certain relationship with cotton. After all, with cotton, it means with cloth.

However, even if the state of Chu could trade cotton for artillery at that time, Xiao Ming was not at ease. He needed two trade routes, one was the fiefdom of the king of Chu, and the other was going south to Tianzhu to obtain cotton from the origin of cotton, so that he would not be restrained by the king of Chu.

In this way, he needs to let Yue Yun and others operate the sailing warships to escort the caravan as soon as possible.

But at present, the most practical way is to buy cotton from the king of Chu. He said to Li Kaiyuan, "you should organize a caravan to buy cotton from the king of Chu. At the same time, the chamber of commerce also began to buy Cotton in Qingzhou. Although the matter of artillery has not yet been settled, the king of Chu still dare not take advantage of the king, because if you offend the king at this time, the king will be able to use the artillery Hold him

"Yes, your highness." Li Kaiyuan said.
