Hongyun Manor in Nanyun Province, because of its warm and comfortable climate, picturesque scenery, and fresh air, Liu Jin lived here for several months, and those who lived there were reluctant to leave.
I ride horses and hunt every day, and travel around the mountains and rivers. Not to mention how comfortable my life is.
There are so many scenery here in Nanyun Province, and the picturesque scenery everywhere makes people forget to leave. Even after spending several months, Liu Jin only visited some parts of Nanyun Province.
Fan.
In addition to fine wine, beautiful scenery, and beauties, the literary style of Nanyun Province is also quite prosperous. There is even a huge Confucius Temple in Xijigang. Grand sacrificial activities are held here every year, and talented people and beautiful ladies gather here.
, very lively.
If Southern Zhili, Jiangxi, and Zhejiang are the hometowns of the Ming Dynasty's exam masters, then Nanyun Province is the hometown of the Ming Dynasty's exams and exams among the provinces outside the customs.
In the imperial examinations over the years, Nanyun Province has been ranked among the best. A large number of students have passed the Jinshi examination every time, and there have also been great talents with top honors. It can be said that the literary style is quite prosperous.
This is mainly because the Ming-oriented and Sinicized education and policies in Nanyun Province are very good. Here in Nanyun Province, the concepts of Caucasians and Georgians have gradually been diluted, and have become the concept of Ming people.
The original culture, customs, etc. were gradually eliminated and replaced by the culture of the Ming Dynasty and the Chinese civilization. People valued education and strongly supported education. Therefore, talented people emerged in large numbers, making it a proper literary and poetic country.
Liu Jin also went to Xijigang to participate in a poetry meeting. In Liu Jin's opinion, the level of talents here in Nanyun Province was already quite high and would not be worse than the local talents in the Ming Dynasty.
In addition to the talents from the old school, a large number of talents from the new school have also emerged here in Nanyun Province.
Many local gentry and businessmen in Nanyun Province also established two local universities in Nanyun Province under the leadership of the Chief Envoy, mainly to cultivate local talents and students in Nanyun Province, and to cultivate local talents in Nanyun Province.
There are a lot of new talents.
It can be said that among the many overseas provinces of the Ming Dynasty, Nanyun Province can be ranked in the top five in terms of economy, culture, education and many other aspects.
Except for the wealthy Ha Trung Province, the rich Liaodong Province and the Nanyang Province with a plantation economy that can stabilize Nanyang Province, it is difficult for any other province to surpass Nanyang Province.
Hezhong and Liaodong are so rich!
The agriculture and animal husbandry in these two places are extremely developed. Every household has a large amount of land, high income and high living standards.
In addition, both of these places were populated by Han immigrants, so the imperial court also attached great importance to it and invested a large amount of funds in these two provinces.
Not only is it creditable for building the railway, but it also attaches great importance to education in these two places, and its development in all aspects exceeds that of Nanyun Province.
The situation in Nanyang is similar. Nanyang is dominated by the plantation economy. In addition to the plantations of immigrants, there are also a large number of large plantations owned by the powerful in the Beijing-Tianjin area.
Coupled with the geographical location of Nanyang Province, industrial and commercial development are very good. Nanyang's shipbuilding and steel industry are also extremely developed. It is the most important overseas steel and shipbuilding place in the Ming Dynasty.
All these make Nanyang Province extremely wealthy. It can be regarded as the richest overseas province in the Ming Dynasty. Counting the provinces in the Ming Dynasty, it is estimated that only Beizhili and Southern Zhili can surpass Nanyang Province.
There is naturally a gap between Nanyang Province and Nanyun Province.
Except for the three provinces of Hezhong, Liaodong and Nanyang, there is a big gap between any other provinces and Nanyun Province.
The industry in Nanyun Province is actually pretty good, and the textile industry is extremely developed.
A large number of textile industries transferred from the Ming Dynasty settled here in Nanyun Province.
Nanyun Province has huge advantages in developing the textile industry. One is that it is close to the origin of raw materials, and the other is that it is close to the market.
The textile industry of the Ming Empire had already achieved global production and global sales.
The origins of its raw materials cover all parts of the world, including Europeans, the Ottoman Empire, the Persian Empire, the Middle East, Tianzhu, Africa, etc. Almost all parts of the world are producing cotton and wool for Ming Dynasty's textile mills.
Nanyun Province is very close to Europe, the Ottoman Empire, Persia, the Middle East and other places, so the cost of transporting raw materials can be lower.
The second is the market. The Ming Empire's cloth has long been sold all over the world. Nanyun Province is very close to the main export markets of Europe, the Ottoman Empire, the Persian Empire, the Middle East and other places.
The cloth produced is mainly sold to these places, mainly for export.
With its unique geographical advantages, coupled with the opportunity to seize the opportunity for the upgrading and upgrading of the empire's local industries, textile factories in Nanyun Province bloomed everywhere, and the textile industry developed extremely rapidly.
At this time, Liu Jin was visiting and inspecting a large factory here in Xiji Port, Nanyun Province.
The textile factory in front of us, named Jinyun Textile Factory, is large in scale, covers a large area, employs more than 20,000 textile workers, has a large number of advanced textile machines, and has a very large output.
Liu Jin brought his servants and housekeepers to Jinyun Textile Factory in several top-notch Mercedes-Benz cars. Coupled with Liu Jin's own temperament and aura, Xie Yunshan, the owner of Jinyun Textile Factory, immediately went crazy when he saw it.
Dian, Pei Dian, came to receive you with great enthusiasm.
There is no way, things are different now. Today's textile industry is already a red sea of corpses and blood, and the competition is extremely fierce and cruel.
Xie Yunshan is considered to be one of the first batch of textile industry capitalists in the Ming Dynasty. He has experienced the golden period of textile industry development, to the silver period, and now to the current Red Sea period.
When he first opened a textile factory here in Tianjin, at that time, the cloth produced by the machine was very good-looking, and the cloth produced by the machine was not only very low-cost, but the quality was also very reliable and quite good.
Compared with traditional hand-woven cloth, it has great advantages. At that time, a piece of cloth could be sold for more than 200 yuan, while the cost was less than 50 yuan, and the profit was astonishing.
Coupled with the textile efficiency of the machine, it can be said that the textile factory is like a hen that lays golden eggs, making money every day and making a lot of money, which directly stimulated the birth of the first batch of capitalists and factory owners in the Ming Dynasty.
When this happened it didn't last long.
Any profitable business in this land in the East will soon attract countless people to invest.
The dignitaries and gentry of the Ming Dynasty also joined the textile industry one after another. The textile industry at that time did not have much technical content. As long as they could buy new textile machines, they could basically make money.
Suddenly, textile factories blossomed everywhere, which also brought the textile industry into the silver age quickly.
Fortunately, the market of the Ming Empire itself was large enough, coupled with its continuous external expansion and colonization, this allowed the textile industry of the Ming Empire to last for more than 20 years in the gold and silver period.
But as more and more factories opened, many problems soon appeared.
One of the problems is the serious shortage of raw materials.
At this time, the price of cotton skyrocketed, and supply exceeded demand. Later, Liu Jin invented wool spinning, which greatly alleviated the dilemma of insufficient raw materials in the textile industry.
But this was still not enough. Cotton plantations began to rise on a large scale in the Western Regions, Henan and other regions. A large number of textile industry capitalists established their own plantations to grow cotton.
However, this was still far from satisfying the huge appetite of the Ming Empire. They turned around and began to establish large-scale plantations in colonies and vassal states around the world. This gradually satisfied the huge market demand of the Ming Empire.
It was only in recent years that Liu Jin used food to impact the world and made people all over the world give up growing food, cotton and sheep, and the problem of raw materials was solved.
The problem of raw materials was gradually solved.
However, rising labor costs and increasing land use funds have also continuously forced the Ming Dynasty's textile industry to continue to relocate.
At first, they moved from the Beijing-Tianjin area, Songhu-Shanghai-Nanjing area to inland provinces, and later gradually moved to the Western Regions, Hezhong, Nanyun and other places, and some even moved directly to overseas colonies and vassal states.
The textile industry has also experienced many changes in just a few decades.
And from the original simple textile cloth to the present, it has gradually developed into the main manufacturing of ready-made clothes and finished products, and the competition in the textile industry has become increasingly fierce.
The biggest problem facing Daming's textile industry now is overcapacity!
Xie Yunshan looked at his Jinyun Textile Factory, and his heart was filled with anxiety and sorrow. He did not have the happiness of a big capitalist or factory owner at all.
This Jinyun textile factory was built by him step by step from just a dozen textile machines to a bigger and stronger one. It is all his hard work, his youth, his wealth, and it is what he wants to pass on to himself.
Family property for future generations.
The huge factory in front of us was countless times larger than the earlier factories, and the machines used were all the most advanced textile machines, all driven by electricity.
Compared with early textile machines, they are not only more efficient, but also produce higher quality cloth. At the same time, they can also produce a variety of garment processing and manufacturing according to customer needs.
It can be said that such a textile factory, if placed 20 years ago, would have been a golden mountain, and it could continuously produce a steady stream of wealth every day.
But now, the operating capacity of Jinyun Textile Factory is seriously insufficient, and employees only need to work half-day shifts. Because the factory cannot receive enough orders, the cloth and clothes produced cannot be sold, and a large amount of them are squeezed into the warehouse.
The amount of cloth and clothes squeezed into the warehouse was so staggering that it almost overwhelmed Xie Yunshan. He urgently needed to sell these cloths and clothes and exchange them for money to pay his employees and maintain the factory.
.
If this continues, with insufficient production and insufficient wages paid, the number of workers in your factory will be greatly reduced, and it will be difficult to invite these workers back.
To be honest, there is really no shortage of jobs for people in the Ming Dynasty. You can find factories everywhere, a large number of businesses, factories, plantations, manors, farms, farms, etc.
Even here in Nanyun Province, it is not difficult to find a job.
If Jinyun Textile Factory cannot pay wages and there is not enough work, everyone will definitely look for other jobs and will not follow you all the time. People in Ming Dynasty still have many choices.
Xie Yunshan is very clear about this, so even if he loses money, he still has to keep working for half a day, so that the factory workers have something to do and can continue to persevere.
He would never dare to stop work, let alone stop paying wages. Once these outstanding textile workers leave, it will be very difficult to bring them back.
Skilled workers are more important than anything else. Without these numbers of workers, even if there are new orders and we need to recruit new workers, the quality may not meet the requirements.
When Xie Yunshan, Xie Feng and his son learned that a big boss was coming to visit the factory, they rushed over immediately and warmly received Liu Jin.
While introducing his factory enthusiastically, he also observed Liu Jin carefully.
The person in front of me seems to have a pretty good background. The cars he rides in are all limited edition Mercedes-Benz cars. They are limited edition cars produced by Mercedes-Benz. Anyone with money can definitely buy it.
The second is Liu Jin's appearance. Although he is dressed in ordinary clothes, he is accompanied by many followers who are responsible for protecting Liu Jin's safety, and the steward and servants are responsible for serving Liu Jin.
This style is the standard for a big shot. What's more, Liu Jin's temperament is that of someone who has been in power for a long time. He has extraordinary bearing and is a real big shot.
Such a big shot comes to inspect his factory. If cooperation can be reached, it will be a big deal. Not to mention that his factory will have a big customer in the future. This will allow his factory to operate at full capacity.
There will definitely be no problems for a few months.
"Mr. Liu, our Jinyun Textile Factory is the most powerful textile factory in the entire Nanyun Province and even the entire western region of Ming Dynasty. You see, the machines we use are all the most advanced and latest electric textile machinery."
"Not only is the efficiency of weaving very high, but the most important thing is that the quality of the cloth weaved is absolutely guaranteed. It can also be customized and changed according to the needs of customers. You can have any pattern you want. Of course, we also do the same in terms of color.
The professional printing and dyeing factories we cooperate with will definitely provide the best quality printing and dyeing services, and the cost must be the lowest among the peers.”
Xie Yunshan took Liu Jin on a tour and introduced the situation of his own factory in detail.
To be honest, this factory has really put in all Xie Yunshan's urgent needs for many years. These advanced textile machinery are not cheap.
He is different from other capitalists. The money he earned in the early stage was basically invested, and he continued to expand his factory and buy more machines.
In addition, moving from the Beijing-Tianjin area to Nanyun Province, etc., he invested all the money he had earned over the years, even in order to maintain it.
He also sold a large number of assets such as plantations, manors, stocks, shops, land, etc. that he had purchased before. It can be said that he gritted his teeth and persevered in order to survive the current difficulties and wanted to condense this
I will continue to run the factory that I have worked so hard on, and I must not let it collapse.
PS: I got home at 6 o'clock, so I coded a chapter when I had nothing to do. I will update a 4,000-word chapter today~ Awesome!
