Zhu Yuanzhang and his group stood at the gate of the industrial park, their expressions the same as when they first came to Yanmen County and saw the main road.
The guards had seen too many foreign merchants like this.
Any foreign businessman who came to purchase goods for the first time had the same expression.
Without asking, he enthusiastically went forward to be a guide.
"Are you guys here to stock up?"
"What do you want to buy?"
Zhu Yuanzhang did not answer immediately. He only carefully sized up the guard who was a few years older than him but still strong.
Although this person was passionate, there was still a heroic spirit between his brows.
He must be another veteran who had been on the battlefield and then retired from the military and returned to farming.
"Brother, you fought in the war?"
When the guard heard this, he also sized up Zhu Yuanzhang.
Other than the demeanor of a superior, he also had a heroic spirit!
"Brother, you've fought in wars and led soldiers?”
Not far away, Empress Ma and Zhu Biao saw this scene and immediately laughed.
How good was that!
Their Old Zhu was still very approachable!
Of course, Ye Qing was an exception.
As for why Ye Qing was the exception, they did not know.
Just like that, the two veterans started chatting.
Not only that, but the veteran who was the leader of the guard post directly instructed Zhu Yuanzhang to act as a purchase guide.
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed as he chatted with this veteran. He regretted not meeting him earlier!
"Brother, you fought Zhang Shicheng with His Majesty?”
"Have you seen His Majesty?"
Zhu Yuanzhang said in astonishment.
"I'm not that lucky." The guard immediately shook his head. He was only fortunate enough to see Xu Shuai from afar.”
"You're from Beijing, right? Is Xu Shuai alright? How is General Chang?"
Speaking of Xu Da, it was still fine. However, when he mentioned Chang Yuchun, who had been gone for three years, Zhu Yuanzhang became sad.
"Xu Shuai is still alright, he is about to pass through Yanmen and lead his troops to the northern expedition.”
"As for General Chang, he died three years ago.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes immediately had a hint of reminiscence.
Hearing this news, the veteran felt sad.
In the chat that followed,
Zhu Yuanzhang understood that this veteran was injured when he beat Zhang Shicheng, and then he returned to his hometown. After two years of new recruits, he returned to farming.
It was just that old injuries would relapse from time to time, and he could not farm for a long time, so it was difficult for him to survive.
It was only until Ye Qing took office that veterans like them had priority in earning a living as guards.
Zhu Yuanzhang felt ashamed of himself when he saw how grateful the veteran was when he mentioned Ye Qing.
That's right!
He couldn't take good care of the veterans who had fought for him.
However, they never expected Ye Qing to take good care of them.
Those who were injured and disabled, and those whose children and grandchildren had died in battle, were taken care of by the sanatorium!
However, those who couldn't farm would all be guards!
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang started to ponder.
If he had not seen the three-minute video of himself before he died,
Just based on this, he would definitely promote Ye Qing.
Presumably, he, Ye Qing, was able to achieve all the first ranks of civil and military officials in such a short time!
"Alright, brother, let's not talk about the past.”
"Since you can come to Yanmen County to purchase goods, I guarantee that you have come to the right place.”
"There's everything in this industrial park!”
“......”
Under the veteran's explanation, Zhu Yuanzhang gradually understood the meaning of the industrial park.
He looked at the dry food processing plant, the textile and cloth factory, the raw material manufacturing plant, the Yanmen paper mill, the Yanmen winery, and so on.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded in satisfaction.
When the veteran saw Zhu Yuanzhang nod, he immediately became proud.
"Not bad!"
"Let me tell you, our Lord Ye is a genius at governing the region!”
"He gathered the workshops and lured the buyers here. Do they want to eat or drink tea? The surrounding villagers did some business, and their wallets also bulged!”
Hearing this,
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled in satisfaction again.
It had to be said that Ye Qing really did what he said!
Wasn't this letting the commoners earn money from the merchants?
"Brother, how about taking me to visit a cloth workshop?”
"Sure, no problem!"
Soon, they arrived at a textile factory!
Different from the old cloth workshops in the capital, there were houses that were 20 meters wide and nearly 60 meters long.
Zhu Yuanzhang and the others were once again shocked when they saw the house that was as wide as their own hall.
Although it was not as resplendent as the main hall, it was still very grand!
"This is?"
"This is called a production plant!”
"The production method inside is Lord Ye's invention. Compared to the traditional method, the speed is five times faster.”
"Not only is it fast, but the quality is also good. The texture is quite uniform!”
"This method is called the assembly line method!”
Upon hearing this, Empress Ma and Zhu Biao were also surprised."Assembly line method?"
Seeing that the three of them didn't understand, the veteran smiled proudly and rushed them to see the so-called assembly line method!
After looking around, the three of them were also shocked.
So this was how production could be done?
He only cared about one step at a time, and then handed over to the next step, and so on until the finished product!
"Not bad, it's indeed fast and good!”
"Your production is so fast, the quality is so good, and there are so many foreign merchants coming to purchase goods.”
"If this continues, the cloth workshops in other places will slowly be unable to survive!”
As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, he smiled confidently.
Because he had found the crime that Ye Qing had been accused of.
That was the crime of 'occupying the market!'
Although it was a little far-fetched, it made sense!
Your Yanmen County has used its absolute advantage to complete the business in the whole country.
Yanmen County is getting rich, but the other areas are getting poorer!
This was called meritorious service to the county, but a crime to the country!
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang just put his hands behind his back and looked in the direction of the county government, secretly complaining.
Little brat!
Today, I'll let you know what it means to be older and wiser!
Today, I'll let you know what it means to have no excuse to accuse someone!
This crime can't kill you, but it's enough to make you unable to be an official in the capital!
And at this moment…
"Brother, you're too narrow-minded, aren't you?”
"Our Lord Ye has already considered it!”
"Lord Ye said that we can't earn all the money and have to leave a way out for others.”
"Therefore, we produce a fixed amount every year.”
"For example, if Great Ming needs ten thousand bolts of cloth a year, we can produce five hundred bolts.”
"In this way, not only will others have a way out, but there will also be a gimmick of limited supply.”
"In order to obtain this limited share, not only did those foreign merchants not dare to casually lower our price, they even had to go to the back door of the county government to look for him!”
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded again.
But then he frowned again.
What a headache!
The accusation that he had thought of for a long time was gone just like that!...
