The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 789 Ideas Come From Interests

The Ming officials who came to greet him couldn't help but twitch their mouths when they heard this, and were a little speechless.

What the hell are you bowing so suddenly, I'm startled!
But there was no expression on his face, he just smiled and led the way.

The Chinese are different from the group of white skins in the West. In terms of quality, the average person is much higher than the white skins.

Even if they look down on you or discriminate against you, they will not show it nakedly.

On the bright side, he is definitely polite and kind to others!

This is why China is known as the land of etiquette.

Toyoto Tokugawa followed the officials of Ming Dynasty and prepared tens of thousands of meeting rooms to meet Sha Dingyuan, the vice minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Passing through the covered bridges and gardens, there are officials of the Ming Dynasty in official robes walking past in a hurry on the road from time to time.

Everywhere is a scene of great haste!

Suddenly, Toyoto Tokugawa, who was walking on the road, suddenly stopped because he saw another group of pedestrians not far away.

"Haha, I'm going to borrow a sum of money from the government to buy a cow and use it to plow the land, so that I can save some effort when plowing in the spring next year."

The reason why Li Shengli said this was because as the machine repair shop became a machine factory, the workers under his hands must not be enough.

Li Shengli was wearing a clean one-piece labor protection suit, a rattan helmet, and gloves on his hands. He directed several of his apprentices to buy the second-hand machine tools and various mechanical parts they bought. Disassemble and get off the car.

Throughout the Weihe Plain in Guanzhong, there are endless wheat fields everywhere.

Old man Wang nodded and said when he heard the words.

Wang Dazhu nodded hurriedly.

After all the machinery and machine tools were repaired, the Shengli Machinery Factory was officially opened.

In his opinion, the golden wave of wheat is really the most moving beauty in the world. Once you see it once, you will never forget it forever.

"Congratulations, mother and child are safe!"

If it is a girl, she will say that she is here to find the way for her younger brother!

If you don't want to, don't blame me for flipping the table!

Hearing this, the dark-skinned man spoke with a compliment.

As a farmer, he didn't pay attention to chewing and eating slowly, so he finished his lunch in two or three strokes.

Nalan Rongruo stood beside his father, looking at the Tokugawa shogunate mission that suddenly appeared and then disappeared quickly.

Apprentices who can become teachers will definitely not be treated exactly the same as apprentices who don't know anything.

Most of the farmers' harvest from a busy year can go into their own pockets.

This apprentice has been with Li Shengli for two or three years, and he knows Li Shengli's character, so he wants his younger brother to follow him to learn the craft.

"My mother has gone to invite Wang Wenpo now!"

"Our factory has just been built, and it is the time when we are short of people!"

"No matter what happens here, Master, I won't miss a bite of your brother's food."

……

Is there a better workforce than apprenticeships?

Everyone is eating and gathering together in twos and threes to chat.

When his son was born, he was very nervous as a boy.

When Old Man Wang heard this, he immediately stopped what he was doing, and looked at his son who was running all the way over.

"Haha, you're being polite, but I don't know if Cuihua is pregnant with a grandson or a granddaughter this time!"

After lunch, old man Wang just lay on the ridge of the field, covered his face with a straw hat, and was about to sleep.

Dwarf, Tsukidai head, samurai uniform...

Especially now that in order to restore local people's livelihood, Daming has reduced or exempted local agricultural taxes generously.

"Indeed, indeed, during spring plowing every year, driving cattle to help people plow the land is also a good job."

Only after experiencing wind and rain can we know that ordinary happiness is true happiness.

Old man Wang was quite calm.

As we all know, when apprentices are learning skills, they don't need to be paid. The master only needs to take care of food and housing, and then teach him the skills.

"Envoy, please come with me, don't make Mr. Sha wait too long!"

He was also a father.

"Master, my younger brother is fourteen this year, can I send him here to learn crafts?"

……

"Mr. Wang, counting the days, your daughter-in-law will soon be born, right?"

When he repaired it himself, all those apprentices surrounded him.

"It's good for my daughter, it's good for my daughter!"

The Guanzhong Plain once again has this beautiful scenery of wind blowing wheat, waves, rice and flowers!
It's really hard not to want more.

It is precisely because of this that most of the rogues in the late Ming Dynasty were from Shaanxi.

Old man Wang began to boil water and prepare the utensils needed for delivery according to Mrs. Wen's instructions.

The weather has entered autumn, and there is a slight coolness in the air gradually.

They were a group of Qing people with money and rat tail hair accessories. Whether it was the robes and jackets on their bodies or their hairstyles, they all showed their identities.

Years of severe droughts have resulted in the loss of harvests in large areas of Shaanxi, and even the Guanzhong Plain is almost barren.

You can tell who they are without asking.

"Our factory is short of people recently. As long as someone comes, I will teach you, master! Teach seriously!"

Anyway, their family is not afraid of being unable to support them now!

"Boy or girl?"

As long as life can go on, they are the most docile good people.

"Father, dad, Cuihua is about to give birth, Cuihua is about to give birth!!"

In the traditional concept of Chinese people, there is indeed some patriarchy.

This time they were able to see the mission of the Tokugawa shogunate in Daming's Ministry of Foreign Affairs. There is a high probability that it was deliberately arranged by Daming.

"From next month, everyone's basic salary will increase by [-]%!"

"If anyone you know wants to learn a craft, you can bring it to the factory!"

In an open space on the outskirts of Nanjing, a factory building stands up.

Old man Wang thinks the same way now, it doesn't matter whether the daughter-in-law gives birth to a grandson or a granddaughter.

This kind of management method of salary increase and performance calculation commission is what he learned when he enrolled in the class.

However, although the old man Wang said he was disgusted, he said that his daughter-in-law gave birth to a loser.

Because of the publicity, coupled with Li Shengli's technology and reputation, and more importantly, the recent strong market demand for machinery in Nanjing, the newly opened Shengli Machinery Factory has received many orders...

Li Shengli urgently needs a group of workers to work for him!

Hearing this, old man Wang squeezed out a smile on his old face and said.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Shaanxi was the place where the worst natural disasters occurred.

Blood gushed out from the wound, and was caught by a big wooden basin. The big fat pig, which was still struggling just now, gradually became silent.

He usually has a dull personality, but after drinking, he completely let himself go.

"Da Zhu, go and slaughter our big rooster and stew it!"

Pieces of field ridges were harvested, and as the sun came to the center, women and children in the village brought bamboo baskets to deliver meals to the laborers at home.

Hearing this, Wang Zhuzi said happily.

After decades of troubled times, old man Wang thought he was used to seeing all kinds of scenes.

The water thrown out by the married daughter can at most get a dowry, and it is definitely impossible to come back to help the family.

"Who says no, if we can have this harvest every year, then we ordinary people will have a good life!"

Li Shengli has a dull personality, but he is very down-to-earth. Although he dare not say that he has no secrets at all when teaching his apprentices, he is doing his best.

It's just that my younger brother is still a little young, and his strength is not enough. It's the time when a half-child eats a poor old man.

Although girls can also help the family with work, they will marry off after a few years of work.

At that time, in Daming, there were few natural disasters, industry and commerce were developed, a large number of people gathered in the cities, the towns were unprecedentedly prosperous, and most of the people lived well.

How could it be possible to be really not excited at all?
After Old Man Wang arrived home, it didn't take long for Mrs. Wen to come too.

He stared helplessly at Li Shengli's movements, wanting to learn how Li Shengli repaired the machine.

"I harvested the wheat this year, and with some food and savings in hand, I'm going to turn around and tell my son a daughter-in-law."

On the second day, after sobering up, Li Shengli began to repair the damaged machines by himself.

The vast majority of people don't have to worry about having too many children to support them, so even if they give birth to a girl, few people would commit suicide.

The sickle was swung, and the wheat stalks were brought down.

Hearing the loud and clear crying sound coming from the room, the expressions on the faces of the Wang family's family instantly relaxed.

"..."

The sharp sickles cut off the stalks, and the golden wheat seedlings were harvested, and then piled together for unified loading and transport back.

They are naturally more excited about the harvest!
Thinking that so much grain in the fields in front of them could go into their own granaries, these simple people couldn't help but smile on their faces.

It's not that Li Shengli is really that stingy. If he was really stingy, he wouldn't have raised the wages of his apprentices who were already able to become teachers.

Old man Wang stood at the end of the field ridge, bent down, and swung his sickle vigorously.

The per capita food security is very high.

Old man Wang sat on the ridge of the field, wiped the sweat from his forehead with a yellowed white towel stained with sweat, and stretched.

But this does not mean that Chinese people don't like daughters!
The most fundamental reason why men are preferred to women is actually because men are better labor force than women.

Wen Po said with a smile.

After hearing Li Shengli's words, several apprentices agreed.

But most of the orders are for mechanical repairs, and there are very few orders for mechanical manufacturing.

"Yes, yes, that girl Cuihua is about to give birth!"

He was afraid that Li Shengli would not accept it.

After he returned to the factory building, several apprentices were already preparing for assembly.

Li Shengli sat on his seat, tapped his wine glass with his chopsticks, and spoke to his apprentices.

"Wait until my daughter-in-law gives birth to a grandson, and this life will be considered complete!"

"Come, all come!"

Old man Wang took a few steps forward, took out a bunch of copper coins from his pocket, stuffed them to Mrs. Wen, and said with a smile.

In a trance, Toyoyu Tokugawa realized what he had been ignoring before, since their Tokugawa shogunate could purchase arms and weapons from Ming Dynasty.

To put it bluntly, any so-called ideology is rooted in the word "interest"!
However, there are very few social conflicts within Daming today, the land is not concentrated, and the development of industry and commerce has provided more jobs for the society.

At the same time, the envoys of the Qing army also saw Toyoyu Tokugawa and his party here.

On the surrounding field ridges, the villagers of the same village almost all moved in the same way.

However, there is nothing he can do about it!
Now Daming is playing Yangmou, not conspiracy.

Then he took another sip of millet porridge packed in a bamboo tube and ate a mouthful of pickles.

Listening to the chatter of the surrounding villagers and their yearning for a foreign life, old man Wang also had a smile on his face.

Then, Qing Kou is also possible!
The Ming official who led the way also noticed Toyoto Tokugawa's strange behavior, and following his gaze, he saw the group of envoys from the Qing army.

Grandkids all the same!
Thinking about how soon, there will be a grandson or granddaughter calling him grandpa sweetly in his arms, the smile on Old Man Wang's face couldn't be controlled.

Several apprentices were also drunk, talking and laughing loudly.

After the prosperity, there will be decades of war!
First, the rogue bandits swarmed up, then the slaves entered the customs, and the Ming and Qing saw-saw...

Old man Wang pulled the butcher's knife out of the pig's neck, and while preparing to boil water to pluck the pig, he turned his head and said to his son.

"Then I will congratulate the old man in advance on the addition of a child!"

But he was actually very happy in his heart.

However, after the restoration of the Ming Dynasty, the natural disasters that had been raging in Shaanxi have almost disappeared.

The purpose of Daming asking the two missions to meet "inadvertently" is actually quite understandable.

That night, after assembling all the machines, Li Shengli invited several of his apprentices to drink together.

Then, Old Man Wang explained several things.

Visible to the naked eye, the pace is getting faster and faster.

Apprentices and apprentices are also different!

……

Even some healthy women and half-children came to the fields to help.

Looking at the excited expressions on the faces of several of his apprentices, Li Shengli knew that this method was probably right.

Only a few people can help with such a difficult task.

"And ah, our factory also needs to participate in performance appraisal. If the performance is good, the factory will give a commission!"

In order to promote his machinery factory, Li Shengli even spent money to publish a section in the newspaper for publicity.

Talking like this can satisfy many people!

It is a celebration of the completion of the factory!
On the wine table, Li Shengli's face flushed from drinking, and he chatted endlessly about the future of the machinery factory.

It is not only the old man Wang who works, but basically all the young and strong people in the village have come to the fields.

Vigorous and simple, yet rough and heroic, the singing symbolizes the attitude of these old Qin people towards life.

Picking up the lunch sent by my wife, I took a bite of a pancake in a bamboo basket, and instantly, the aroma of wheat mixed with oil exploded in my mouth.

"Everyone is working hard today, working overtime, trying to assemble these machines as soon as possible!"

I'm going to ship it to the city to sell, and then buy some supplements for my daughter-in-law!
With a pop, the sharp knife pierced into the flesh!

Could it be that he didn't negotiate with Daming just because he knew that Daming was calculating?

The current Ming Dynasty is in a historical cycle, a period of unprecedented material satisfaction!
That is the so-called prosperity!

A clear layer of sweat soon appeared on his forehead.

Seeing this, Li Shengli didn't mean to hide his secrets. While repairing the machine, he was also telling his apprentices the principle of the machine's operation, the cause of the damage, and the repair method.

"Your daughter-in-law is about to give birth, and your father-in-law must know about such things."

"This crop of wheat is growing very well this year, and it is really a rare harvest year!"

Although he has already been a father, it is the first time to be a grandfather.

The factory covers an area of ​​more than 300 square meters, and the interior is separated by wooden boards to separate the staff lounge, office, dining room, kitchen, and the most important production workshop, maintenance workshop...etc. Different areas.

The autumn wind blows, and the golden waves of wheat rise and fall, which is very beautiful.

"But it doesn't matter, whether it's a grandson or a granddaughter, I don't care about old men."

Wang Dazhu ran up to his father in one breath, panting heavily.

"..."

After decades of war, the world's population has halved, and the once mighty Ming Empire also collapsed.

Not long after, I saw Wen Po coming out of the room, and said with a happy face.

The sun gradually set to the west, and almost half an hour later, old man Wang took off the straw hat on his face, and stretched leisurely.

In comparison, it must be more profitable to have a boy!
This is also the reason why in a famine year, when there are too many children in the family to support, more girls are drowned.

The wall outside the factory was painted with white paint, and then the five characters "Shengli Machinery Factory" were written with red paint.

"Although she's a loser, there's Mrs. Lao Wen who made this trip!"

In Old Man Wang's memory, the last time he saw such a beautiful harvest in the Guanzhong Plain, he was still a young child.

However, it is too expensive to spend money to hire skilled workers, it is better to train apprentices yourself.

Old man Wang was not in a hurry, he just spoke.

"Father will go home now, and you will go to your husband's house now."

Nalan Rongruo felt very unhappy about this, and felt aggrieved that he had been calculated.

This feeling of being full made Old Man Wang feel very satisfied.

Old man Wang also simply packed up the farm tools in the field, and then walked home.

"Father, what should I do?"

Then direct the manpower to move into the factory building, and prepare to start assembly!
The apprentices began to prepare to assemble the machinery, and Li Shengli said goodbye to the several drivers who came to deliver the goods with a smile on his face.

One of them spoke up.

How could it be that in the past few years after the restoration of the Ming Dynasty, the frequent natural disasters almost disappeared?
Especially Shaanxi.

Several artificially dug canals divide the wheat field into different parts, and the ridges are well planned.

However, he really didn't expect that Daming, whose coffin was about to be nailed to death, would be able to restore his country.

During this period of land purchase and factory construction, Li Shengli did not mess up.

Otherwise, with such a large office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, if Daming did not want the two missions to meet, the two missions would never meet.

Wang Dazhu stepped forward and asked.

Wang Dazhu's face was full of excitement, and he ran towards his father with big strides.

Before leaving, each of these coachmen was stuffed with a pack of cigarettes.

Li Shengli heard the words, but he just waved his hands and said very generously.

Li Shengli clapped his hands and waited for everyone to look over before he spoke.

Perhaps, it is really the emperor Taizu's legacy of expelling the Tartars, and the fate of the Great Tomorrow is still unfinished, right?

Not long after, Wang Dazhu rushed over with his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Even if Nalan Rongruo knew that Daming was plotting, he couldn't deal with it.

"Cui... When Cuihua was helping my mother feed the chickens, she accidentally fell and the amniotic fluid broke..."

It is nothing more than wanting to use the irreconcilable contradictions between Qing and Japan to obtain greater benefits and gain more advantages for themselves in the negotiations.

However, for the old empire of Ming Dynasty, Wanli Prosperity is not so much a resurgence as a return to light.

Give birth to a boy and wait until the boy is more than ten years old to help with the housework.

Certainly not!
This is the scary part of Yangmou. You know that I am plotting against you, but you can only follow my plot!
refuse?

For farmers, there is nothing that makes them more happy than a good harvest!

"What's going on? Didn't Wen Po say that it will take a few days to give birth?"

But if life can't go on, they don't mind rising up and overthrowing the people who let them go on!
At this moment, a young man stumbled over on the distant field ridge.

When Old Man Wang heard this, he could hardly hide the smile on his face.

In addition to continuing to run his own machine repair shop, he also went to a class to study business administration.

The appearance of this group of Qing people brought a great sense of danger to Tokugawa Toyoyu.

A thoughtful expression appeared on his face!

"It's a girl doll who will help my brother find his way in the next world!"

A man with dark skin asked.

"According to Mrs. Wen, it's just a few days' work!"

Wen Po is a talkative, he knows many people's patriarchal thoughts.

"The lathes and machines have arrived. When these machines are assembled, and the broken ones are repaired, our machinery factory will open at that time."

Generally speaking, if the baby is a boy, she will directly congratulate the baby boy.

Old man Wang is already sixty this year. He was born in the 37th year of Wanli, and he has experienced the last real prosperous age in Chinese history-the Wanli prosperous age.

He picked up the bamboo tube next to him, took a sip of the low-quality tea that had been cooled in the bamboo tube, picked up the hoe, and prepared to continue working.

After Mrs. Wen left, the old man Wang was going to raise his own family for almost two years, and he was going to slaughter the big fat pigs that were killed by pigs during the Chinese New Year this year.

Although they were tired, all of them were smiling from the bottom of their hearts when they saw the waves of wheat blowing in front of them.

The family tossed and tossed until it was completely dark, and the child was considered born.

A smile appeared on the Ming official's face, and he urged in a gentle tone.

The sun is high in the sky!

While these simple farmers were working, they were also singing Qin opera.

Now that I hear that my daughter-in-law is about to give birth, although I am happy, I will not lose my temper, and I can still hold on.

The reason why he wants to recruit new apprentices is entirely because Li Shengli is in the early stage of starting a business, and in terms of expenses, he must save as much as he can.

"Replenish your daughter-in-law well!"

Obviously, although the old man Wang insisted that his granddaughter was a loser, he still cared about his first granddaughter.

The pigs that have been raised at home for two years are also killed if they say they are killed!
What you need to know is that the Wang family is not a very wealthy family!

Although after Daming came back, the Wang family was divided into fields, coupled with the tax reduction and exemption of the imperial court for several years, life is not bad.

But this pig is still the most important property in the family!
