Zhu Yunhuan actually got him a large amount of silk thread. According to the silk thread production revealed by the Industrial Bureau, it was more than enough to supply the shuttle looms in his weaving bureau and weaving workshops!
Although he didn't know how the Industrial Department did it.
But the end result is!
His Majesty's arrangements and planning allowed them to achieve one thing: before winter fully set in, most of the poor people would have at least one item to keep them warm! Although the quality was not high, the advantage was the low cost.
For those who are destined to freeze to death in the wind and snow this winter.
This is your chance to survive!
Before really confirming this matter.
This achievement...
It’s unimaginable!
After realizing Zhu Yunhuan's intention, Qin Kui woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't help but give himself a big slap: I deserve to die!
After all, before he knew the truth, he had to admit that he cursed a lot in his heart.
"Your Majesty summoned me here. Is it to ask me about the progress of loom improvements and the weaving situation at the Ministry of Works?" Qin Kui asked respectfully.
Zhu Yunhuan smiled faintly: "Let's put this matter aside for now. Wang Yingxin told me that the first batch of silk thread has been sent to you. I think you understand what I mean. I called you here today because I have something else for you to do."
Relatively speaking, the flying shuttle loom and water-powered spinning machine were the ones he needed to worry about the least. After all, the efficiency of these things could be increased by dozens of times.
"Your Majesty, please give your orders!"
"As your humble servant, Qin Kui, I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
Qin Kui immediately responded in an excited voice.
With the precedent of the flying shuttle loom, he believed that even if His Majesty occasionally indulged himself in pleasure, he would immediately think of the common people as soon as he came to power, and would be able to swiftly come up with a set of effective methods to protect the common people... He would not go overboard in anything he did.
Zhu Yunhuan took out a piece of rice paper from the dragon desk and asked Ma Sanbao next to him to pass it to Qin Kui: "Make this thing for me."
Qin Kui took the drawing, squinted his eyes, and immediately frowned.
The drawing showed a strange-looking thing that he had never seen before and could not understand at all.
There are also enlarged pictures of each component next to it.
They were labeled [eyepiece], [tube], [stage]... and other words he had never heard of.
Of course, this drawing is quite detailed. If you want to make the things on it one by one, apart from spending some effort, there shouldn't be any major problems overall.
"Your Majesty, this is..." Qin Kui asked subconsciously.
"Just make it according to the size standards I require. The rest has nothing to do with you." Zhu Yunhuan had no need and was too lazy to explain, so he spoke directly.
"Yes, I obey your order!"
This time, Qin Kui did not doubt him and agreed immediately.
For Qin Kui now.
First of all, he was not sure whether the strange things Zhu Yunhuan made were really for fun or had other deeper meanings. After all, he had misunderstood the spring before. As a person who was involved in officialdom, he would not make the same mistake again.
Take a thousand steps back.
Even if this thing was really made by His Majesty for fun.
So what?
Your Majesty came up with the idea of the "flying shuttle" and proposed a method to improve the loom. At the same time, it is unknown what method was used to massively increase the production of silk thread. You planned for the people of the world so far in advance. I wonder how many people who would have frozen to death will be saved from the hands of the King of Hell this winter. This is already a great merit.
Is it too much to ask the Ministry of Industry to make something for him to play with? Not at all!
"I wonder if Your Majesty has any other instructions?" Qin Kui asked directly.
"It's gone, go ahead and build it." Zhu Yunhuan said lightly.
"Yes, then I will take my leave first." Qin Kui said no more nonsense and left directly.
Watching Qin Kui's back as he left quickly.
Ma Sanbao, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but laugh and said, "Lord Qin is quite proactive in his work now. I think he is really convinced by His Majesty."
Zhu Yunhuan smiled faintly, yawned, and said nothing.
Of course Qin Kui had to be quick.
Whether he is really convinced by him or not is something that only he knows, so let’s not discuss it for now.
But on Qin Kui.
Firstly, he was still burdened with the charge of "presumptuously speculating on the emperor's will" last time.
Furthermore, just thinking about the flying shuttle loom he is currently working on is enough to make him famous in history. How many censors had to gamble their lives on this matter, yet he got such a big bargain.
He won't say anything no matter what you ask him to do.
He looked at the dragon desk that he had cleared out, feeling quite happy: although not everything had gone smoothly, everything had been generally settled now, and even the microscope was just around the corner.
"Come and take a look at my sweet potato vines." Zhu Yunhuan stood up and said.
……
Yi County.
Going north against the flow of the Grand Canal.
By this point, we have already entered the northern territory. Compared to the south, the weather in the north gets colder faster and the autumn wind is more biting.
At the Yi County dock, a ship had just begun to slowly depart northward.
On the side of the boat, two men in coarse linen clothes stood by, one was about sixty or seventy years old, and the other was about thirty or forty years old.
"Old Lu, how much further up is there?"
"We've been traveling slowly and have been stopping here for quite some time, so it's still early. But I just received a letter from home."
These two people were naturally the farmers Huang Shiliu and Lu Wei who set out all the way from Yingtian Prefecture. Along the way, no one knew that they had actually passed by the "deceased" Emperor Hongwu, and some even joked about it.
And what Lu Wei called "family letters".
Naturally, it was the information from Yingtian Prefecture passed on by Jiang Li.
"Oh? Let's see what that little wolf cub has done again." Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and took the "family letter" from Lu Wei with interest.
