Hundreds of households in Liaodong, covering the light with one hand

Time flies so fast, and the small-scale riots from She County, Anhui Province did not cause China to move forward.

A large number of textile factories, steel mills, and shipyards have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain in the north and south.

Some people used the principal borrowed from commercial banks to build factories, buy machines, and hire labor. In just three months, they paid off the loan. In five months, they used the funds at hand to develop new factories and improve new technologies. With his advanced technology, he became a famous and wealthy person in just one year.

Ximenjun is one of the best.

After opening a second factory in Huzhou last time, Ximenjun has already set his sights on Nanjing.

If you can open a third factory in Nanjing, your business territory will form a circle on the map, spanning three places, and you will become a textile giant!
Last time, because Ximenjun was the first to use the new shuttle technology, the factory output increased significantly. After Ximenjun tasted the benefits, this time he wanted to cooperate with the parliament and be the first to use water conservancy textile machines. He wanted to become the leader in industry development again!

Just three days ago, the Nanjing Textile Industry Association had sent itself an invitation letter, inviting itself to Nanjing City to participate in an industry standards seminar.

"When I go to Nanjing this time, I have to find a way to meet President Wang of the Parliament." Ximenjun looked at his wife who was packing her luggage and said to herself: "I have already studied the hydraulic textile machine this time. It’s an absolute outlet and an absolute benefit. If I can win it, I will be the benchmark for the Jiangnan textile industry!”

"Didn't my brother say that President Wang is very busy these days and doesn't have time to see you?" His wife Liu ordered the maids and servants to load various gifts and packages into the carriage, and replied: "How can you find it? ?”

"Nanjing Textile Industry Association," Ximen Jun shook the invitation letter in his hand: "Through them, there must be a way! The current chief executive once said that as long as the thinking does not slip, there are always more ways than difficulties!"

"You, you study the words of other people's ruling lords every day. You are a small textile factory owner. What do you think you want?" His wife, Mrs. Liu, rolled her eyes at her husband and was quite speechless.

"You are such a woman, you have long hair but short knowledge!" Ximen Yun said proudly: "In just one year, you went from a poor family to a rich man, just by studying the words of the chief executive! Forget it, let me tell you, you I don’t know. Have you finished cleaning it? It’s been a long time!”

There is no railway between Yangzhou and Nanjing. After Ximenjun arrived at the ferry by carriage, it took him a day by boat to reach Nanjing.

"I heard that the railway track from Tongzhou to Beijing City can be reached in one hour, and can be run back and forth in two and a half hours." After Ximen Yun boarded Nanjing City, he was quite looking forward to when Nanjing City would also be able to jump on the railway track? Then it will be more convenient to do business on your own.

"Master Ximen, right? Director Chen of the Nanjing Textile Industry Association sent a villain to greet us!"

As soon as he stepped off the pier, a man in a long coat and cotton-padded jacket came forward and asked with a smile on his face.

"I am Ximenjun," Ximenjun nodded.

"That's right. Master, please get in the car. We will go directly to the inn arranged by the association to stay!"

Ximenjun looked at the luxury car in the distance, feeling a little nervous. He turned around and asked, "Do you want money?"

"Looking at what you said, when you arrive in Nanjing, the association will cover all your expenses!" The man chuckled and made a gesture of invitation.

"That's good, that's good!" Ximen Yun walked away, and the servants behind him followed suit.

The carriages and horses were not moving very fast along the way. The streets of Nanjing were filled with tourists, hawkers doing business, and teahouses and restaurants busy making money and pawning goods.

Finally, after more than half an hour of jolting, the carriage came to a halt.

"Master Ximen, we're here!" The man's voice became more respectful.

"We're finally here," Ximenjun stretched out his feet and stepped out of the car. He looked up and saw that the door of the inn was already filled with people from all walks of life dressed in rich clothes and robes. It seemed that they were all here to greet him.

"hiss!"

This battle actually made Ximen Yun a little scared.

Although we have opened two textile factories, we still know the actual cost!

Is there any factory owner in Nanjing that is not richer than myself?
What does it mean?
For a moment, Ximen Yun was a little confused.

"Master Ximen, please get out of the car first!"

Following the man's invitation, Ximen Yun stabilized his mind before bowing and walking out of the sedan. "Hello, Master Ximen!"

"I have long admired your name! Master Ximen!"

"Like thunder!"

“Seeing is worth hearing a hundred times!”

As soon as he got off the car, everyone gathered around him, making Ximenjun even more confused - am I so famous?
"Brother-in-law!" When Ximenjun was confused, his brother-in-law Liu Huawen finally squeezed through the crowd: "Brother-in-law!!"

"Hua Wen, what's going on?" Ximen Yun hurriedly grabbed his brother-in-law: "What formation is this?"

"It's President Wang Shouwang." The brother-in-law said in Ximenjun's ear: "He heard about the labor system you introduced in the Yangzhou factory and admired it very much. He will come in person soon and said that he wants to meet with your brother-in-law. Learn from it! Now these people all want to rely on you to get close to the president!"

"Chairman of the Nanjing City Council, want to learn from me?"

After hearing what his brother-in-law said, Ximenjun was so frightened that he almost jumped up!

This is not a joke.

"Okay, I won't tell you any more. Just remember that when you meet the president, just tell the truth!"

After saying that, his brother-in-law took Ximen Jun and walked into the inn.

Ximen Yun didn't feel uneasy for too long. About a quarter of an hour later, there was a burst of chaotic footsteps outside the door, as well as the sounds of people greeting each other.

With a creak, the door was opened from the outside.

Wang Shou, dressed in casual robes, stepped in.

"Ximen Yun pays homage to President Wang!" Ximen Yun quickly stood up and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"No need to be polite." Wang Shou looked very young and easy-going. He was not as arrogant as the officials in the past. After entering the room, he found a chair and sat down: "Today I took the liberty of coming to see Mr. Ximen. Please don’t be offended.”

"No, no, no, no," Ximenjun waved his hands hurriedly: "Whatever it is, whatever it is."

"Sit down," Wang Shou looked at Ximen Yun's helpless look and said with a smile, "I'm here today just to chat."

"Okay, okay, sir, if you have anything to ask, I will definitely tell you everything you know!" Ximenjun gently lowered his buttocks on the stool, not daring to sit down.

"I heard that your factories in Yangzhou and Huzhou employ about one to twenty people in total?" Wanshou looked at Ximenjun, and behind him was a man who looked like a secretary taking notes.

"Sir, it's one hundred and twenty-seven people," Ximenjun had to carefully correct the number when talking about his factory.

"Oh," Wang Shou nodded: "I heard that your factory stipulates that each worker can work a maximum of five hours a day. Those who exceed the limit will be paid according to the output. There is also a reward and punishment system, as well as pay. Payday system, incentive and merit evaluation system?”

"This, this is all done randomly by young people, and they can't be put on the stage." Ximenjun said that he can't be put on the stage, but his face was filled with pride.

It is because of this system that the output value of Ximenjun's factory is 30 to 40% higher than that of other peers!

"Well, do you know about the workers' riot in She County?" Wang Shou nodded slightly and asked thoughtfully.

"I've heard a little bit about this," Ximenjun nodded.

"I would like to ask you to be a special consultant to the Nanjing City Council and set up a factory bill formulation group to study how to protect the rights and interests of workers while maximizing the interests of the factory. Of course, you will not let your work be in vain. Every month, you will follow the highest limit set by the council consultant. The standard salary will be paid!" Wang Shou looked at Ximen Yun with a burning expression: "Think about it?" (End of Chapter)
