From the perspective of long-term development, this is the most important thing!
Industrial Revolution.
Revolution: spinning and weaving are not the result, but only the beginning.
With such a group of craftsmen around, the possibility of understanding the future achievements he knows and creating them is much greater!
"Your Majesty, thank you for your kind words. This is entirely due to your support and trust!" Wang Yingxin immediately said humbly, "Please feel free to direct me in the future, Your Majesty! We are able to present our ancestors' achievements to the world thanks to God's grace. The Wang family is deeply grateful!"
This statement certainly contains the habitual flattery of the emperor.
But there is also real emotion in it.
Because they knew very well that as long as this thing could overcome the initial cost and promotion resistance, the name of his ancestor Wang Zhen would definitely be recorded in future generations, and even he, Wang Yingxin, would be able to leave his name in history!
"Since you already have the ability to produce underwater spinning machines, I will allocate a farm to you. Over the next few months, in addition to the staff needed for printing newspapers, the rest of the Industry Department will be responsible for fully manufacturing these spinning machines and commencing large-scale spinning."
"This matter must be carried out in secret. I will also allocate troops and manpower from the Jinyiwei to assist in this matter." Zhu Yunhuan gave the order directly.
He looked up at the sky.
Although the weather is clear today and the sun is high in the sky, the temperature of the sunlight is no longer scorching - autumn has come, and winter will not be far away - he does not have much time left.
"The minister obeys the order."
"However... I dare to ask Your Majesty, is the thread you want cotton or linen? Or is it silk thread used for weaving silk?"
There are many types of threads, each with different final uses and different raw materials.
Wang Yingxin didn't know Zhu Yunhuan's intentions and thoughts, so he naturally couldn't be sure and could only ask tentatively.
However, Zhu Yunhuan smiled faintly: "Neither."
"Neither... neither?" Wang Yingxin was a little confused.
When it comes to spinning and weaving, the best quality is naturally silk made from silk, followed by cotton woven from cotton, and then linen.
You want to spin yarn, but you don’t want these materials. What are you going to do?
Zhu Yunhuan did not keep the secret.
He said bluntly, "I want you to use grass, tree bark, and suitable rattan... Your ancestor, Mr. Wang Zhen, was well versed in agronomy. I believe you are the most clear about which plants can be spun into silk thread. You can use whatever you can."
Hearing what Zhu Yunhuan said.
Wang Yingxin and other descendants of the Wang family and craftsmen present were even more confused.
What...is this operation?
Why go to so much trouble to develop such a highly efficient water-powered spinning machine, but instead of using it to spin silk, cotton, or linen, they spin inferior silk thread?
To know.
These materials can also be spun into yarn.
But the spun silk thread is extremely coarse and can’t be sold at a good price in the market. Isn’t this a completely losing business?
Could it be that this Majesty is really as people in and out of the government say, that he is just a playboy and a spendthrift?
Yes, that's right! I spent a lot of money building a spinning machine. Just to make worthless silk thread. I just have too much money to burn. Yeah, nothing else, just for fun!
All of a sudden.
Wang Yingxin and the people around him looked at Zhu Yunhuan in surprise.
I just felt that the young man in front of me, who was handsome and elegant even in the dragon robe, seemed to suddenly overlap with the "playful and decadent" emperor complained by the court censors and the common people.
"Your Majesty... I dare to say something!"
After a moment of silence, the leader Wang Yingxin couldn't help but speak.
for him.
He inherited the skills and craftsmanship of his great-grandfather Wang Zhen. Although he lived in seclusion in the mountains, he led his clansmen in farming and studying to pass on the family tradition. He always had hope and ambition in his heart. He knew that his hopes and ambitions could only be realized with the help of those in power.
Now they finally have a chance to emerge.
