Crossing Wu Dalang starts from selling cakes

Chapter 451 For the prosperity of Yanyun!
"Your Majesty, it's like this. Our family has opened a factory, and the scale is not small."

Dad said with a smile.

Hearing this, many ministers laughed.

A common man, who couldn't even eat enough rice before, opened a factory?Isn't that a joke.

Is it possible to raise a few chickens and ducks at home and become a factory?
But it's also understandable, common people like to exaggerate little things.

Cai Jing said at this time: "Do you have some chickens and ducks at home? Old man,...this is not a factory."

The old man looked at Cai Jing, but he ignored it, feeling that this man spoke in a strange way.

He looked at Song Huizong: "Your Majesty, come with me, and I will take you to see it!"

"Good!" Song Huizong nodded.

While speaking, several people walked towards the old man's house.

After a while, they came to a house.

There are three rooms in this house, and the yard is neither big nor small.

As soon as I entered, I heard many people talking and laughing inside, and there were creaking and creaking sounds. It turned out that the textile machines were constantly pulling threads back and forth.

There are seven or eight women working here.

With constant pulling back and forth, the thread becomes cloth.

Turn it here and there, and the cloth is formed.After these cloths are made, there are some people who can embroider and work beside them.

It is still very lively here, everyone is busy, talking and working at the same time.

"Look, Your Majesty, these are our factories, run by a partnership!"

The old man smiled and said, "Originally, I didn't dare to think that my son could still open a factory. Didn't Yanyun give us a loan? My son joined forces with other people in the village to purchase some things and set up a textile factory. Now the output is pretty good!"

"Oh, if there is no new loan law from Minister Wu, how can we ordinary people do this? We simply have no money to buy these things!"

Dad: "The women in our village still know how to do some work, and now they have a place to use. These cloths can be sold to the south after they are manufactured. Even the military minister has opened up the channels. As long as we produce them, someone will come to them." Buy it and give us money!"

"Now, women can also support their families!"

Hearing what the old man said and seeing the scene here, even Cai Jing couldn't help being a little embarrassed.

It turned out that the factory the old man mentioned was a textile factory.

He really didn't see that there are some ordinary people here who can do this.

Although the scale is not very large, it can indeed be counted as a factory.

Song Huizong nodded: "Since ancient times, men farmed and women weaved, but now women can gather together to make cloth and sell it in the south. It is very good!"

"Today, I really saw a scene that I had never seen before!"

"It seems that the Chief Secretary of Military Affairs is still very good!"

Song Huizong more and more agreed with Wu Zhi's Secretary of Government Affairs.

The common people perform their duties, make the best use of everything, create better benefits and environment, and people all over the world can live a prosperous life.

The day is getting better and Cathay Pacific is safe and sound. Although Song Huizong is an expert in lying down, he is also happy to see this situation.

It is definitely not that every day when you go to court, you will hear about rebellions, where bandits appear, kill people, and where murders occur.

Tired of hearing this every day.

What he prefers to hear is that where the people live well, have food to eat, the world is peaceful and happy...

At this time.

Song Huizong glanced around, and after walking out, he could still hear singing outside.

A group of people are dancing around.

It was full of laughter and laughter, and some children even laughed and played here.

What a lively scene.

Song Huizong watched these people live happily. For the common people, these are actually enough.

As long as they have enough to eat and earn money, what could be better than a happy family together.

The harvested grain can be sold for gold and silver. If there are problems in planting, such as lack of water and insects, you can ask the Secretary of Government Affairs to find a solution.

Such a state is indeed very good.

We can only live better if we work together.

Song Huizong came here, and he was very impressed. He went to other places in the Song Dynasty before, and what he learned was mostly complaints. , very rich or something.

Rebels are actually everywhere.

Is this still comfortable?
It's just that there is no good way to deal with it. The structure of scholar-bureaucrats in the world has already been formed, and it is difficult to shake their interests if they want to change.

However, after Wu Zhi came, he began to do these drastic things, and Song Huizong also supported it. The key point is that Wu Zhi has this ability.

Now Song Huizong saw that the whole village was so harmonious, and knew that the situation here was real.

Next, after Song Huizong visited and inspected other areas, it was roughly the same as the previous villages, and many people were busy at home.

If one village is like this, the ministers may not believe it, but if several villages are like this, they cannot help but not believe it.

After all, there are quite a few people in a village. Even if the king of Yan ordered them to act, and the people are not doing well, it is impossible for the whole village to exude that kind of joy and joy from the heart.

There are some things that cannot be pretended. Only when they actually happen can people have such a sense of satisfaction.

After understanding clearly, Song Huizong said at this time: "Mr. Wu, I think the agricultural official just now is very good. He has been trained well and is a person who does things."

Song Huizong looked back at the agricultural official standing in the corner.

Hearing this, the farm official was very happy.

Wu Zhi said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the Secretary of State Affairs is promoted according to merit. A farm official like this does a good job, and promotion is very fast."

"Well, that's good too, so as not to bury talents!"

Song Huizong nodded.

He feels that the system of the Secretary for Civil Affairs is very good.

The officials under him are also more conscientious. During the interview just now, many people praised the Secretary of Civil Affairs. This is not what he thought, but what the people said.

now.

After they returned to the previous farm, Zhou Quan specially prepared a table of meals for everyone.

It's the farm meal that I said before.

After all, the official family is here, and the ministers present are here, so we still have to entertain them.

However, Song Huizong said that he wanted to eat farm food and experience the life of the common people, so it was not too rich.

When it was time for dinner, Cai Jing looked at a table of farm meals with disgust.

They are so tired when they come here, they still eat this food, isn't it for pigs?
Cai Jing and others are not very happy to eat the food of the common people.

Although the food here is actually better than what the common people usually eat.But for ministers like them who are used to eating good things, this is not on the table.

"Let's try it, the farm food here has a special taste, it's delicious!"

Zhou Quan laughed.

These dishes were also introduced to those present.

It's all vegetables grown in the fields.

Song Huizong was the first to eat it, not to mention, he thought it was good: "Everyone eats it, this farm meal tastes very good."

Cai Jing thought that the polite words from the officials would not be willing to eat if he hadn't been so hungry.

After trying a few bites, huh? ... Cai Jing found that it was okay, so he took a few more bites, which was also a little surprised.

Although it really can't compare to the good food cooked by the chef in his mansion, it is not too bad to eat, and it has a relatively refreshing taste.

Since there are quite a lot of people eating, the scene is quite lively.

Those ministers who were originally unwilling to eat farm food, now because they were hungry and the taste was really good, they quickly burped and looked satisfied.

During the meal, Song Huizong laughed and said:
"Now I see that the people of Yanyun are rich, have ample food, and enjoy themselves happily, and I am very pleased.

I have never seen such simple people working so actively in the land of the Song Dynasty, and today I have opened my eyes.

And this new law can actually borrow money from the common people, support them to set up factories, and encourage the common people to create their own factories for common prosperity and development. This is also unexpected.

Everything is going great!Come,...for the prosperity of Yanyun, everyone! "

Song Huizong toasted, and everyone hurriedly catered, and everyone began to drink.

"Yes, Your Majesty, Yanyun has developed so well, and I have never thought about it! This new law is really good!"

At this time, Li Qingzhao's father, Li Gefei, came out to speak for Wu Zhi.
