Chapter 122 Zhu Yuanzhang Recruited Craftsmen From All Over The World To Help Ye Xuan Start The Indu
Chapter 122 Zhu Yuanzhang recruits craftsmen from all over the world to help Ye Xuan start the industrial revolution!
In the splendid hall.
Zhu Yuanzhang was sitting above in a yellow uniform, exuding the majesty of an emperor.
"Won't?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned.
Frowning slightly.
In the past, Ye Xuan always showed an omnipotent side, but now Ye Xuan said the word "cannot", which made Zhu Yuanzhang feel a subtle feeling in his heart.
It turns out that no matter how powerful Ye Xuan is, he is just an ordinary person.
Zhu Yuanzhang thought to himself.
At the same time, my heart relaxed slightly.
If Ye Xuan behaves omnisciently and omnipotently.
That's even scarier.
People with flaws and imperfections are easier to control.
Zhu Yuanzhang was not annoyed and had a friendly smile on his face.
"Listen to Aiqing, does Aiqing know how to improve the cotton yarn machine?"
"I have seen a cotton yarn machine called a Jenny machine in a book, but I have never made one, so I don't know how to make one.
"I only know its general principles."
"But it requires the cooperation of craftsmen to make it."
"The efficiency of the Jenny machine can increase spinning efficiency by about eight times."
"If we could make a Jenny machine."
"Then, the spinning efficiency will increase by about eight times, and there will no longer be a shortage of cotton yarn for weaving cotton cloth.
Ye Xuan replied neither humble nor arrogant.
"Improve spinning efficiency eight times?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was secretly delighted, but remained calm on the surface.
"Need craftsmen to help make cotton yarn machines?"
"How many people are needed?"
"Hundreds of people?"
"Thousands of people?"
"How much do you need, dear?"
"No matter how many people there are, we will find them for you!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's tone was full of domineering.
The Ming Dynasty had a vast territory.
There are countless capable people.
Want craftsman.
That's not simple yet.
As long as Ye Xuan can improve the efficiency by about eight times and build a spinning machine called a Jenny machine, he will try to get people to pick off even the stars in the sky.
Ye Xuan was quite speechless.
This is a manufacturing machine.
Not a war.
There is no use having too many people.
It's not like being cannon fodder.
"Your Majesty, there is no need for so many people. I only need top skilled craftsmen. It would be better if these skilled craftsmen have made spinning machines and have such experience~"
"This way the probability of creating a Jenny machine will be higher."
"However, even if this is the case, the possibility of making a Jenny machine is not high.
I have only read about the Jenny Machine in a book before. If I cannot make it, please do not blame me, Your Majesty. "
Ye Xuan said.
Although he was 70% sure of making a Jenny machine.
But just in case.
He gave Zhu Yuanzhang a vaccination in advance.
In case you really can't figure it out.
Zhu Yuanzhang blamed himself.
"Even if Aiqing can't make it, it doesn't matter."
"After all, no one is perfect."
"We understand."
Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile on his face.
Ye Xuan:………………
He was speechless.
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled so brightly.
As if it was something worth being happy that he couldn't figure out the Jenny Machine.
Is it not good for Zhu Yuanzhang to look forward to him so much?
Ye Xuan didn't know that Zhu Yuanzhang felt strangely happy when he heard Ye Xuan's uncertain words.
“I didn’t expect that your kid wouldn’t be able to do it sometimes.
"Sure enough, no one is perfect."
"but."
"If this kid can't get the Jenny machine."
"Then the efficiency of spinning cannot be improved."
“Cotton yarn is in short supply.”
Zhu Yuanzhang was happy but sad.
The mood is very strange and complicated.
"Since Aiqing wants the help of craftsmen."
"We will post an imperial list to the world to recruit skilled craftsmen."
"I'm sure I can recruit the helper you want, my dear."
Zhu Yuanzhang said.
Most people in the Ming Dynasty relied on agriculture and the textile industry to survive.
Ye Xuan wants craftsmen.
That's not easy yet.
As long as he recruits.
Countless craftsmen will come.
There are so many top-notch craftsmen!
Groups of soldiers wearing silver armor and holding sharp weapons surrounded the eunuchs and headed for the city walls of the capital.
"Step aside!"
"Step aside!!"
The soldier pushed through the crowded crowd in front and shouted.
The people got out of the way.
They looked at this group of people and felt a little strange.
"What is this doing?"
"Is there something big going on?"
"Let's go and have a look!"
The common people followed this group of soldiers, "Head to the city wall.
The eunuch posted the imperial list on the city wall.
Then he left with the sergeant.
The people all gathered around and looked at the imperial list.
"Recruiting skilled craftsmen..."
"Artisans who have made spinning machines will be given priority."
"Those who are selected can serve as officials in the court..."
The whole place was in an uproar.
"Craftsmen can become officials in the court!?"
"real or fake?"
"I'm not dreaming, am I?"
"Hiss! It hurts so much, it's true!"
"You're just pinching yourself, why are you pinching me? I haven't even complained of pain, so why are you complaining of pain?"
"It's not a dream!"
"This is not a dream!"
"Craftsmen can also become officials in the court!!"
The people were incredible.
I thought that the imperial examination system would allow those scholars to have the opportunity to pass the imperial examination and become officials. This was already an extreme mercy.
Unexpectedly, now there is an imperial list posted above, recruiting craftsmen, and craftsmen can also be officials.
This is simply outrageous.
Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce.
The status of craftsmen is only higher than that of merchants. In fact, the status of craftsmen is not that high.
The Ming Dynasty divided ordinary people into three classes.
"."The people, the Japanese army, and the craftsmen."
Craftsmen are at the bottom.
Therefore it is the most despicable.
Moreover, the Ming Dynasty also stipulated that household registration could not be changed. Military, civil, medical, craftsman and other household registrations were hereditary and could not be changed.
Feel free to change it.
That's illegal.
In this way, craftsmen become craftsmen from generation to generation.
Moreover, it is not possible to take the imperial examination and become an official.
Now the approval from above.
Craftsmen can enter the court and become officials.
How not to shock and surprise the people?
This will undoubtedly improve the status of craftsmen.
Ma Si, dressed in coarse linen clothes, stood in the crowd and looked at the imperial list. His face was full of encouragement and joy at this time.
He is a craftsman.
My parents and grandparents were also craftsmen.
The status of craftsmen in the Ming Dynasty was extremely low and their treatment was not good.
It is very difficult for a family to feed and clothe themselves.
I still get hungry from time to time.
Can't feel full.
Ma Si was unwilling to give up.
I want to change the destiny of myself and my family.
However.
The craftsmanship system of the Ming Dynasty prevented him from changing the fate of himself and his family.
My parents and grandparents were craftsmen.
I am a craftsman myself.
So.
(Wang and Li's) Their descendants can only be craftsmen throughout their lives.
Low social status.
Food and clothing are a problem.
Ma Si was in agony.
He once complained extremely about his parents, why did they become craftsmen?
If not a craftsman.
Nor would he be a craftsman.
Future generations will not have to continue working in this low-status profession.
They don't have to work so hard for life, and they don't have to be discriminated against and looked down upon by others.
But now, Ma Si looked at the notice and felt extremely happy.
Fortunately, my parents and ancestors were craftsmen.
otherwise.
He can't escape his fate in his life.
"A craftsman can become an official in the court!"
"The opportunity to change your destiny has come."
"As long as I seize the opportunity, I can become an official and change the destiny of myself and future generations!"
Ma Si's blood boiled all over his body.
Thousands of other craftsmen like Ma Si also think so.
Craftsmen enthusiastically signed up for the profits.
Soon, Zhu Yuanzhang recruited hundreds of private master craftsmen.
