Emperor Chongzhen, who had no shortage of silver, would not cling to the silver in his hands, hoard them in batches, and let them turn black with the ravages of time.

I want to focus on solving the existing problems of Ming Dynasty.

On the one hand, we must prepare for the establishment of a technological system that belongs to the Ming Dynasty.

The Armed Forces Academy established in the Xishan area, along with the relocation of the Military and Warfare Bureau and the Arms Bureau, were like a seed sown.

The military industry system involving research, improvement, and production will take root and sprout under the care of Emperor Chongzhen, absorb all nutrients worth absorbing, and grow vigorously.

With talents like Xu Guangqi and Song Yingxing, Emperor Chongzhen was not worried about any surprises.

What we need to do now is to have enough patience, continue to spend money, and concentrate our manpower and power to provide various convenient supports.

When it comes to things in the field of science and technology, there are no shortcuts, it just requires climbing up a little bit.

In order to protect this fundamental core, productivity must be improved on the other hand.

Use the existing money in internal funds to vigorously develop the state-owned economy and do everything possible to earn more money to form a virtuous cycle.

Only by walking alternately with two legs can Emperor Chongzhen solve many practical problems.

"Wang Banban, all the plans in Xishan have been carried out as scheduled. How are the preparations at the inner factory going?"

Looking at Xu Guangqi and Song Yingxing leaving, Emperor Chongzhen looked at Wang Chengen and asked: "Also...how are the improvements to colored glaze going on with the Western craftsmen recruited from Xu Qing?

The imperial estates under the control of the inner factory and the areas defined as new factory areas must be carefully planned and not an inch of land should be wasted.

Taking Huangzhuang, which is spread throughout all the prefectures under the jurisdiction of Beizhili, as a complete whole, we can build a complete industrial system, which is related to the subsequent development of the internal factories."

What is a state-run economy?

That is, the industries involved must be extremely competitive, be able to earn corresponding amounts of money, and have extremely high influence.

In this way, when necessary, he could help Emperor Chongzhen solve economic problems anytime and anywhere.

food.

cotton.

As far as the current situation of the Ming Dynasty is concerned, it is hard currency that is harder than gold and silver!

As long as we can have enough voice and influence in these two major industries, we can actually indirectly help Emperor Chongzhen to implement the many plans he had made in an orderly manner.

"Your Majesty, the foundations of the planned spinning mills, weaving factories, garment factories, etc. in the Gyeonggi and Tianjin areas have all begun."

Wang Chengen thought for a while and said respectfully: "We are stepping up the recruitment of all the required manpower. Most of the craftsmen controlled by several inner court offices, headed by the Neiwei and Dyeing Bureau, have been transferred to the above-mentioned areas.

Those craftsmen with rich experience are all gathered together, specializing in improving various skills in textiles, as well as all kinds of high-quality tools required.

The plan to weave wool is also being carried out in an orderly manner, but it will take some time. I will ask Yousi to keep an eye on it.

In addition, the internal factory is also intensifying research on the colored glaze, but it will still take some time to meet the standards required by the emperor.

According to those Western craftsmen, there are many crafts involved in firing high-standard colored glaze. There are many. The slaves have sent people south to find some official porcelain craftsmen. Once they arrive, I believe there will be progress soon.

.”

In order to ensure the healthy growth of the state-owned economy and develop and expand in the shortest possible time.

The Da Nei Xing Factory, the actual responsible organization, aimed at the economy built around the Imperial Village. Under the vision of Emperor Chongzhen, corresponding government offices were established to take charge of their respective powers.

Since the inner court has a huge group of eunuchs, it is most practical not to just do things like serving, but to help the inner court earn more money and accumulate more wealth.

There are corresponding institutions for things such as overall planning, field development and construction, auditing, resource allocation, internal and external supervision, inspections, law enforcement, etc.

In addition, the Ouchi Factory is also responsible for reviewing the Hidden Supervision Organization established by the Nishiji Factory.

Without exception, those who can enter the internal supervision agency of the internal factory have gone through layers of screening and review.

The Dong Ji Service Factory is external to the factory, and is combined with the Jin Yi Wei Factory Guard to be responsible for corresponding matters and powers.

Internally, the Xiji Office is responsible for supervising the inner court's Twelve Supervisors, Four Divisions and Eight Bureaus, as well as the rising East Factory, which is also responsible for inspections, special operations, special escorts and other powers.

As such a large group with a clear organization and clear structure, the inner court has become a system of checks and balances, each performing its own duties, and it has begun to take shape.

Emperor Chongzhen believed that as time went by, the system would become more and more perfect.

“Well done.”

Emperor Chongzhen nodded in approval and said: "Wang Banban knows best how many powers and responsibilities the inner factory has.

You must be a good housekeeper for me.

Now Ming Dynasty is encountering too many problems, and there are more places where money is needed. As for the money collected in internal funds, including jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings, etc., if it is not managed well, it will bottom out again in a few years.

.”

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will definitely take care of the internal affairs of the factory."

Wang Chengen bowed his hands and said, "In addition to what I have just said, we are also planning a new salt-drying method in Yongping, Shuntian and other prefectures and counties.

As well as the cement and other materials mentioned by the emperor, the internal factory has organized corresponding manpower to carry out corresponding improvement research.

In this way, the initial investment will be huge, and the group of craftsmen required will be very large. Now the factory is still recruiting all kinds of craftsmen.

Your Majesty, otherwise, for the craftsmen, can the corresponding treatment and incentives be slightly lowered?"

"We must not surrender!"

Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said: "It is not that there is no money in the internal funds at present. As long as the procedures are followed and things are done according to the rules, as much money as should be allocated will be allocated.

If you want the industries built here in Huangzhuang, including the various fields developed by the inner factory, to grow as quickly as possible, you must not treat the craftsmen you control harshly.

I had neglected this aspect too much before, so after the war with Jianlu and seeing many bad things, I belatedly wanted to change everything.

If a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools.

For those craftsmen, they rely on their own labor to earn corresponding money and have a prosperous life. Only then can they work well.

It’s not that you don’t understand these simple truths.

Why did those government-run craftsmen households flee from their households year after year?

It means there is no way to survive!

If they could have enough food, clothing, and support for their family, would they be willing to risk beheading and do something that violates the laws of the Ming Dynasty?"

"This slave thinks too simply."

Wang Chengen hurriedly handed over his hands to plead guilty and said: "I will resolutely implement these orders of the emperor, and I will never waste a tael of money from the internal funds."

"Wang Banban is doing the work, I can rest assured."

Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said: "From now on, Wang Banban can come less often to me and concentrate on sorting out the matters under the jurisdiction of the inner factory.

Remember that you, the housekeeper, are more than just a tea-server. You must actually help me share my worries. Any problems that need to be solved, but cannot be solved, must be reported to me as soon as possible."

For a loyal eunuch like Wang Chengen, Emperor Chongzhen must entrust him with corresponding responsibilities. Things like ability can be cultivated, but loyalty is not necessarily the case.

The duplicitous and wall-riding group of eunuchs, Emperor Chongzhen would not let any of them out of the capital, but asked them to stay under his nose and do the dirty work, and if there were any who jumped around, they would be killed.

But like Wang Chengen and Fang Zhenghua, a group of loyal, reliable and capable eunuchs surround the entire Beizhili area. It is the right way to run around as much as possible and perform their respective duties well.

Being the emperor of the Ming Dynasty still has an excellent advantage.
