The sun never sets in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 218 Beautiful Homeland

Chapter 218 Beautiful Homeland
After Huang Sheng succeeded in attacking Fuzhou City, he immediately arranged for Huang Mingli to take two general banner cavalrymen and a coachman to Juehua Island to deliver the benefits.

He returned to Huangjiawan Island with his subordinates, and brought back more than 1 Han Chinese and a small number of slave women.

The Huang family has its own rules for identifying traitors, and it is completely left to Huang Dongshan and the musketeer boy to figure it out.

All the Han Chinese who had worked as slaves during their slavery were selected and sent to Huangjiashan Island to work as coolies. This time, none of the people brought back were killed, and the hardcore traitors were also given a chance to reform through labor.

As for how many years this kind of reeducation through labor will be carried out, it is completely in accordance with the sentencing standards. In order to give people hope and give opportunities to the Han people who are working hard to reform, it is considered to commute one adult's sentence by three months to one year every year.

People are like this, without hope, they will be like walking dead, and when they have the possibility of getting a good life, most people will work hard to fight for it. The work style of the Huang family is to always give hope to everyone, even if they are reform-through-labor prisoners.

The captured slave women were also sent to Huangjiashan Island to work, to carry forward the humanitarian spirit, not to abuse them so that they could have enough food and clothing. As for the craftsmen of the Huang family who took a fancy to them and planned to marry wives and concubines, they also supported them.

After screening, the Han army who revolted in front of the battle left some skilled or armed soldiers as supplementary soldiers, and sent them to Juehua Island to be trained by Huang Mingli.

Others were arranged to work on Scorpion Island. The hydraulic pulverizer there was already working, but it was still far from meeting the production needs, and a large amount of labor was still needed. This time, 3000 more people were added to work, and full production could be achieved in a short time.

The hydraulic mill on Huangjiawan Island has been put into operation. Along the short artificial river, there are hydraulic workshops for food processing, rice milling, noodle grinding, and tofu production.

As the home of most of the Huang family, this picturesque island does not allow any heavily polluting industries. Huang Sheng will always guarantee the beautiful scenery here.The pillar industries here are light industry, warehousing and entrepot trade.

The current storage capacity of grain depots with dedicated ports has reached 50 shi, but now there is not so much grain, and the inventory is less than one-third.

The factories here are all labor-intensive deep-processing industries, mainly processing and producing food, and textiles and silk weaving are not printed and dyed here. Huang Sheng would rather increase costs without causing pollution to Huangjiawan Island.

The skilled craftsmen of the Huang family tried to build a new spinning machine with eight vertical spindles driven by one spinning wheel under the guidance of the half-baked owner. This is actually the first generation of spinning jenny invented by the British in the [-]th century.

The key to the success of the new spinning machine is that there are qualified steel materials. The English transliteration of the parts used to tighten the yarn on the spinning machine is called "roller". and torsional stiffness.

With the correct groove tooth profile and specified surface finish, it can effectively hold the fiber without damaging or snagging the fiber.

Such technology came out more than 100 years earlier, and the spinning capacity of such a spinning machine is eight times higher than that of the old spinning wheel, but it still requires manpower.

Huang Sheng asked the master craftsmen who participated in the design and production to continue to carry out technological innovation, reminding them to use water power, and it is estimated that the second generation of products will be born soon.

The weaving technology of the Ming Dynasty was world-leading. There were too many large-scale textile factories in Nanzhili, and there were as many as 10 weavers. Capitalism had already appeared.

The well-known Songjiang cloth is a leading product. This kind of cloth adopts the weaving method of "warp, straight and weft", which has a three-dimensional effect. According to historical records, it "looks like velvet". It has been exported to the world since the Southern Song Dynasty and has been exported to the world since the Qing Dynasty Only half of it was squeezed by foreigners.

The weaving technology of the Han people has been ahead of the world for more than 1000 years. Later, under the colonization of the slave owners of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties, the Han people could no longer produce any advanced products.

Due to the limited production of cotton yarn, not everyone can afford such a good cloth. The Huang family went to Songjiang Mansion to ask the Sun family for help in purchasing the latest looms at a high price for the great craftsman to study.

Many parts of the loom were replaced with high-quality steel produced by the Huang family, and a more efficient and durable machine finally came out.

Sun Yuanhua is from Songjiang Prefecture. His family is a big local bureaucratic landlord, and there is a weaving factory in his family. With the relationship between Huang Sheng and Sun Yuanhua, he not only got the machine but also invited several master craftsmen.

Technology secrecy has become the top priority. Fortunately, if there is no qualified steel to imitate the machines of Huang's family, it can only be done in Handan, and the technology should not flow out in a short time.

The confidentiality requirements for these civilian products are not as good as the military products of Scorpion Island. It only guarantees that idlers in the Huangjia factory area are not allowed to enter, so that the masters who have mastered the technology cannot reveal their words.

The Huang family is not afraid of someone poaching the wall. First, outsiders of the Huang family's production in Songjiang Bu can't know, and the Huang family has no sales at all. Who knows if it is produced on the island?
The second is that the masters of the Huang family all have children serving in the army. Many of them are already officials. The masters and their families live and work within the Huang family system. Needless to say.

The third is that neighbors on Huangjiawan Island face each other, and people who come here will be found immediately. Besides, people who can come here for no reason have never been seen before, and they will not pass the interrogation on the Huang's boat.

Those who came to Huangjiawan Island by delivery boat instead of taking the Huangjiaban boat could not visit the island at all, they could only move around in the commercial area.

The cotton mills and cloth mills on Huangjiawan Island have already started production, and the cloth is temporarily not sold to Daming, because Huang Sheng is worried that it will impact Daming handicraftsmen and cause a large number of weavers to lose their jobs.

Anyway, the current production is limited. The cloth produced by the Huang family is sold as dog meat under the banner of Songjiang cloth, and is ready to be exported to Japan, and will be exported to Southeast Asia and Europe in the future.

After budgeting costs, the Songjiang cloth produced by the Huang family can save [-] to [-]% of the cost under the condition of the same quality and relatively high remuneration for the weavers. There is no doubt about its competitiveness.

The population of the Huang family has increased by another ten thousand, and now it is close to fifty thousand. There are still no idlers, everyone has jobs, and they are busy and happy every day.

Ninety-nine percent of them are people who have no food or clothing or who have been exploited to the end. Today's life is booming, how can they not be smiling?

From the very beginning, Huang Sheng guaranteed private property and encouraged labor to get rich. He hoped that the richer the people, the better.

The head of the family announced that the whole army would rest for seven days and prepare to go to sea on August [-]th.

In the past seven days, Huang Sheng inspected the arsenal on Scorpion Island, visited the industrial workers, held a symposium with everyone to understand their life and work conditions, and asked Secretary He Xiang to record everyone's requests and suggestions.

As the head of the family, Huang Sheng only listens and does not express his opinion. As a referee, he does not leapfrog command, because the Huang family has a management team and system, which does not require rule of man, and relies on the system to manage everything.

Workers put forward suggestions, and Huang Sheng asked managers at all levels to demonstrate the feasibility and promote and implement them by improving the system.

Huang Sheng knew that as the top leader of the Huang family, he must not talk too much. If someone came to report some problems, he would immediately demonstrate his authority and immediately express his position. In the long run, the system would become a mere formality, and the managers under him would be at a loss as to what to do.

From the very beginning, Huang Sheng relied on the system to manage everything, even if this is not perfect, it can only do so when no better management method can be found.

Li Er, the steward sent by the Li family, the partner of Haimao, has prepared everything with six tents. He used to be frightened every time he went to sea, but this time is different. Not only is he not afraid, but also a little proud .

After he was busy at Huangjiawan Island, arranging for the shipment, he found that the number of warships in Huang's family had increased several times, and the number of warriors had increased by several thousand.
