Yuan Ruan tilted his head and said, "But isn't the glass produced by the Ministry of Industry currently in short supply?"

The Minister of Works paused, looking a little anxious. This was true, but they could keep working hard!

He hurriedly said, "Master Imperial Master, give me another year, and I will definitely be able to find enough manpower..."

Yuanruan said: "It's been too long. We need to occupy the market as soon as possible."

Minister of the Ministry of Industry:...

Yuan Ruan added: "In addition, we are not leaving the Ministry of Industry aside. We are not giving the nobles the technology alone. The nobles provide the manpower and money, and the Ministry of Industry provides the technology, and we will go to Wancheng together to open a glass factory."

The Minister of Works felt relieved: even if the nobles contributed money together and shared the profits, the core technology of glassmaking would still be in the hands of their own family.

The Minister of Revenue was also relieved. It didn't matter if the cake was not given to one noble, but to many nobles who came together to share it.

At the same time, after listening to Yuanruan's ideas, the Minister of Revenue was also enlightened.

He thought for a moment and said, "Master Imperial Master is right. Besides glass production, there are also workshops for wool skin and wool yarn processing. These all require a lot of manpower. Wancheng is located on a major transportation route, and the transportation routes to various places are more cost-effective. It is also closer to the North. If these workshops are arranged in Wancheng, on the one hand, it will be enough to feed the civilians left in Wancheng, and on the other hand, it will also save costs."

After the Minister of Revenue finished speaking, the Minister of Works clapped his hands and said, "You are right. It just so happens that all the nobles in Wancheng have left, so it is convenient for us to send people to settle in Wancheng to build workshops. Hahaha, these nobles left well, it was a wonderful way to leave."

The court officials also thought this approach was good and began to discuss which workshops should be sent to Wancheng.

At this time, Prime Minister Wang suddenly reminded: "The wages paid to those tenants must be sufficient. If the nobles of Wancheng regret it, they will not be able to come back even if they want to."

Someone wondered, "Aren't these nobles going to relocate their entire families? Why would they want to come back? Is this fake?"

Prime Minister Wang laughed. "Where can they move to? Wancheng is just a big city on the border. They live like local tyrants here, but if they leave Wancheng and go to other places, their wealth will make them paupers. Will the noble families in other towns accept them in a friendly manner? Will they accept paupers to compete with them for land? For tenant farmers? For business?"

The Minister of Industry clapped his hands suddenly: "What the Prime Minister said is very true. These nobles were unwilling to relocate. If they are not satisfied with their lives, they will regret it. So, even if we don't move the glass and wool workshops there, Wancheng will be able to stabilize sooner or later..."

Prime Minister Wang shook his head and said, "No, no, no. If Wancheng is abandoned by Daxia and there is chaos for a while, those small nobles will probably just feel lucky even if they are not living a happy life. But once we make Wancheng prosperous, those small nobles will feel extremely regretful and may even...come to seek refuge with us."

Now, the official in charge of intelligence also stepped forward and asked Prime Minister Wang questions such as "What is the availability rate of those who defected to the nobles?"

……

When Yuanruan heard this, he couldn't help but sigh to the system: [They are all so smart. I just threw out some ideas, and they have come up with so many ideas. It's amazing.]

The system disagreed and emphasized loudly: [Aruan is the smartest! If Aruan hadn't pointed it out, they wouldn't have thought of it.]

Yuan Ruan's mouth twitched, and she nodded perfunctorily, thinking to herself: If the officials of Da Xia are dumber than her, then what's the point of this country's destiny? It would be better to kill herself as soon as possible.

In this way, the court officials of Daxia were chatting animatedly in the square in front of the hall.

The emperor, the emperor is not in a hurry. He has to wait for the court officials to discuss and reach a conclusion before making a judgment.

He glanced around, then carried the weak Yuan Ruan to the Imperial Master's Mansion.
