Chapter 263 The Appearance of Cotton
"Old Nancheng? Well, I vaguely remember someone saying it, but I don't know where it is, what? Is there a suitable candidate there?" Ruan Yunsi also became happy. Now the manpower problem is the biggest obstacle. The Xizhi Dyeing Factory can be put into work immediately.

"Yes. There are many people there, but..." Zhong Nan hesitated, looked at Ruan Yunsi and lowered his head, and said in a low voice: "The people there are usually not enough to eat, they just go to rich people to cook No one wants a small worker, so..."

"Why is that?"

Ruan Yunsi was a little strange. At this time, she finally remembered what the Old South City was. It was simply a slum. She still remembered that she used to be in the Marquis's Mansion. Once she quarreled with others, she liked to curse that they would be reduced to the Old South City in the future. go.

"Because the people there are too poor, the rich and the rich don't believe in their character. Everyone thinks that the poorer the people, the more petty theft is unavoidable. If my sister works in this factory, nothing else, Those machines alone are a huge fortune. So I am also hesitating, even if it is really lost, it is not a small loss."

Ruan Yunsi nodded and said: "That's how it is. Hehe, it's ridiculous. If it's really low morality and petty theft, this place is at the foot of the emperor. Why don't you spend a few dollars a day? As for living in a slum without eating three meals? I heard that The people there live in thatched cottages, I just wonder how such a place is allowed under the feet of the Son of Heaven."

Zhong Nan said with a smile: "The capital city is too big. Many people thought that it was full of gold, but they came to realize that if you don't have skills, you can't make money. If you have no livelihood, don't you have to live there? Anyway, it's okay. Is there a shelter from the wind and rain?"

"Okay, Brother Nan, you can go there and pick people from there. You don't have to stick to men and women. You must know that some men are as smart as women, and they are stronger, so they are more suitable for this job than women. When the time comes The 150 looms were divided into two rooms, one for men and the other for women. After finding candidates, I immediately went back to Xiaowang Village to invite those skilled women workers to come to train. I will get some new ones soon Hua Hua, you asked Huang Ying, Lou Lan and the others to come to the Hou's mansion first. It's just because you have been so busy with the brocade competition that you haven't come up with new tricks for so many days, I'm afraid the fifth son and shopkeeper Yan are in a hurry, right?"

Zhong Nan laughed and said, "I don't know if Wu Gongzi and Shopkeeper Yan are in a hurry, but I know Xu Sangong will definitely not be in a hurry. It just so happens that we don't have any new tricks to sell, so Guiyun also needs a break." Luo Luo, but Ruan Yunsi laughed and said: "You think of Mr. Xu too simply, he doesn't need any respite."

The two of them walked around the entire Yunxi weaving and dyeing factory while talking. Ruan Yunsi was very satisfied with this large and magnificent factory building.It's just that the location is a bit out of the way, but the surrounding conditions include water and low mountains, which is really very unique.She didn't even dare to imagine how many roads Su Liuyun had traveled that day to find such a treasured land of geomantic omen for building a weaving and dyeing factory.

It just so happens that this place is very close to the old South City, so it is more appropriate to visit here.Ruan Yunsi was very happy that the biggest problem in her heart was solved.Back in the Hou Mansion, Zhong Nan showed her the latest accounts.After doing the math, the production of Yunxi Weaving and Dyeing Factory in Xiaowang Township has been increasing. Since she returned to the Hou Mansion, in the past year, she has earned a full 5000 taels of silver. Such costs, the net profit is more than [-].

Especially the calico, although the price is not as high as that of the brocade, but the cost is small, the yield is high, the output is high, and the market sells well. After careful calculation, there are actually [-] silver here that came from the calico, of course. , Now the number of printing machines in Yunxi Weaving and Dyeing Factory has increased to five, otherwise there would not be such a large output.

It's a pity that this sweet big cake is destined not to be monopolized by Liujin's family from now on.Ruan Yunsi knew that Guiyun's printing and dyeing technology had matured since she saw Guiyun's printing, dyeing and weaving dual-technology colorful brocade.She couldn't help but admire Xu Jinpeng, this guy really had some connections, and he built the printing machine without making a sound.It can be seen from this that there are probably more talents under him than he imagined.Originally, Ruan Yunsi thought that it would take at least two years for the other family's printing and dyeing technology to mature.

The [-] silver has been spent one after another. In addition to the expenses of the Hou Mansion, the construction of the Yunxi Weaving and Dyeing Factory also accounted for a large part. Although the five sons and shopkeeper Yan were paid by them, they have a sense of friendship. Ruan Yunsi
You can't stay out of nothing.Counting all the items, there is still a balance of ten thousand denarii.

After Zhong Nan left the silver ticket, he immediately went out to the old south city to select candidates.Here Ruan Yunsi looked at the banknotes carefully, secretly thinking that after the Yunxi weaving and dyeing factory in the capital is also put into production, the profits will be even greater, so it is time to call Huaifeng over for a walk, about the advanced modern looms It's time to tell him some ideas, and there are other fabrics that need to be researched and produced. Well, calculated in this way, by next year, the profit may reach [-] to [-] a year. This is like a snowball, always getting bigger and bigger of.Within five years, I will be able to repay all the debts from Mr. Su, right?

Thinking of this, he could not help but gently raised the bank note in his hand, and said with a smile to himself: "I heard that you have won many victories in the frontier, and I am afraid that the day when the class teacher returns to the court is not far away. You can come back sooner, I'm waiting to pay you back."

After talking to himself, he gently locked those banknotes into the small sandalwood box, and couldn't help but sighed: "You and I, in this life, I'm afraid we will only have such a close relationship. In fact, sometimes I also hate myself, why do I have to persist? Between love and career, why can’t I choose the former? I just think about it, but I can’t let go of this career, alas! It’s a dilemma, I’m a selfish person after all Women, just to live up to myself, naturally I want to let you down."

The small box was locked, and she walked out of the house and into the study. The thing about researching tricks mentioned earlier was not a joke. Since she wanted to make money, she had to do it with all her might.

Another half month passed in a blink of an eye, Ruan Yunsi researched the new pattern, here Huangying Loulan and others also came to the Hou Mansion, stayed here for three days, after learning the new pattern, they went to Yunxi Weaving and Dyeing Factory in the capital This time, Zhong Xiu, Bi Qiu and others also passed by, but Ruan Yunsi didn't go, no matter how she said her identity was here, if she said that she went to the factory to guide the female workers for a few days, it would still violate her identity.

So being famous, if she hadn't returned to the Hou's Mansion and became the daughter of the Hou's Mansion, wouldn't she be free to do what she wanted now?She just came back.I just thought about it, if I don't go back to Houfu, I'm afraid the Yunxi weaving and dyeing factory in the capital will not be built.

Suddenly Ruan Yunsi was the only one left in the Pillow Fragrance Pavilion, Zhong Xiubiqiu went to the factory, but Yunniang was worried about her own home in Xiaowang Village, she decided to go back to live for a few days, and take a look at the few acres of land on the hillside.

It had been a long time since she was so clean, but Ruan Yunsi was not used to it.After reading the book for a while and devising a few tricks, I went out to Siguo Pavilion.As soon as he entered the door, he heard a voice laughing: "Tell me, that little white thing is still useful?" It was Aunt Shuang's voice.

Ruan Yunsi couldn't help being surprised, and hurried into the room, only to see that the room was full of people, the old Hou Ye, several aunts and sisters were here, and Ruan Mingru was also there.Seeing her, they all stood up and smiled and said hello.Ruan Yunsi was surprised and said: "Hey, so neat, why are you here today? Even Daddy is here."

Aunt Shuang smiled and said: "Just now the second master took a strange thing to show the master, we saw it interesting, the master was moved, and said that he would come to this garden to have a look, nothing else, this summer Most of the fruits we ate came from the second master. Because we were also excited, we all followed the master."

Aunt Shuang said that here Ruan Siju had already handed over a weed, which seemed to be still a flower bone.Ruan Yunsi took it with a smile, and said, "Let me see what it is? It has attracted so many people." She looked at the "weed" while talking.

Others didn't care, and continued to talk and laugh. Only Ruan Mingru noticed her sister's expression as if struck by lightning for a moment, and hurried forward and whispered: "What's wrong with the third sister? But what's wrong with this thing? If it's not good, let the second sister Just throw it away, it's just a weed anyway.

Ruan Yunsi stared blankly at this "weed", only to feel that the voices around her were far away from her, until Ruan Mingru shook her desperately a few times, and several aunts rushed over when they sensed the strangeness, she was just like a dream Waking up.

For a moment, looking at Ruan Siju's little face full of surprise and uncertainty, Ruan Yunsi really didn't know what it was like in her heart. If possible, she really wanted to shake Ruan Siju's shoulder and shout: "Say, did you come here through time travel? Did you time travel?" Came here?" Or shouted with great excitement: "Heavenly King Gaidihu." However, of course, these can only be thought in the heart, and absolutely cannot be said out loud.

At the moment, he forced himself to suppress the excitement in his heart, held up the cotton that Aunt Shuang and the others regarded as a weed and asked Ruan Siju softly: "You said this thing is useful, but I don't know what it is for?"

Ruan Siju hurriedly said: "Sister, don't worry, if you don't like it, I won't plant it. In fact, last time I heard Brother Zhong Nan occasionally say that someone from their village went up to the mountain to pick this kind of thing, and went back to peel the waffles here. Come out, sew it in clothes, wear it warmer in winter, hehehe... Actually, I have nothing to do, there is still an open space in the garden, our family does not need me to farm for a living, I have nothing to do, thinking Look at it in various ways."

Before Ruan Yunsi could answer, Aunt Huang smiled and said, "Second Master is serious and correct. If you are a countryman, the land you plant in a year is enough to eat food, and you have to pay rent to sell it. It is really a piece of land the size of a fingernail. Can plant seedlings, where is the leisure to plant this?"
