Chapter 8 Governing the South of the Yangtze River

Liu Rengui looked at Li Yuanai with a surprised look.

Since I learned that Li Yuanai had recognized his proposal to dominate his business, I immediately realized that I had really met a noble person.

Not ordinary people, they will not let go of prejudice and abandon agriculture and value commerce.

Excited, Liu Rengui began to think about the detailed economic revitalization plan.

It's just that there are too many problems and they are all intricate.

These days he has been very upset about how to open up the situation and has not yet made any sense of clarification.

In addition to grain, Jiangnan is the most famous one in the textile industry, but because of many mulberry and hemp, they have been converted to farming.

The textile industry has been hit hard and will be difficult to recover in the short term.

Now that Li Yuanai actually had a way to break the situation, Liu Rengui hurriedly asked for advice: "I'll ask the King of Wu for advice!"

"cotton!"

Li Yuanai said something that everyone knows: "I have purchased a large number of cotton seeds from Tianzhu, and first find a suitable piece of land near Suzhou to plant it."

Liu Rengui was a little confused.

Shangguan Yi said: "What is the wonderful use of Mianhua besides being ornamented? Even if it is ornamental value, Mianhua is also average."

"That's not discovered it yet!" Li Yuanai narrowed his eyes and said, "It's like silk. If the concubine of Huangdi, Lazu, discovered the wonderful use of silk, who would have paid attention to the small cocoons and mulberry leaves? The cotton is not good-looking, but the flowers it blooms can be called cotton. This cotton can be filled into the quilt with a little processing, which is extremely warm and better than ordinary leather. The key is that it can be mass-produced. I can ensure that the cotton coat and quilt will completely replace the cold-proof clothes and quilts of our quilts. At least the paper clothes and paper clothes are far inferior, and the price is far lower than that of paper clothes and paper clothes, and even compared with guaro."

As soon as he said this, all the five people below were moved.

Is it better to protect against cold than paper, clothes, and quilts?

Paper clothes and quilts sound a bit cheap, but in fact they are the best cold-proof quilts in this era.

Lu You wrote a poem "Thank Zhu Yuanhui to send a paper quilt", "The paper quilt is surrounded by snowy days, and the whiteness is in the fox's armpit is softer than the cotton."

This kind of paper clothes and paper is made of wild rattan as raw materials. After strict processing procedures, it becomes special paper. It has a very powerful cold-proof effect and is very shiny, so it is very expensive. Not to mention that ordinary people cannot use it at all. Even if a well-off family is reluctant to use it, it is mainly silk and silk cloth.

Only Li Yuanai, who is not worried about food and drink, can wear paper clothes and quilts.

As for the people, it is even simpler. They use kudzu to make quilts and fill them with reeds, willow catkins, and thatch is not strong in resisting cold.

A cold-proof object that is better than paper clothes and quilts, and the price is actually comparable to Gema.

Once this thing comes out, it will definitely occupy all the cold-proof markets in the world.

From high-ranking officials and nobles to craftsmen and farmers, everyone needs them.

There are also foreign races such as Baekje, Goryeo, Xi, Uighurs, etc. They were all born in bitter and cold places. They were not many people who died of freezing every year, and they would definitely buy them at a high price.

This is completely free from selling.

Liu Rengui's mind was active, and he stood up straight and bowed, "With this strange thing, Your Highness decides how to do it? I have two methods here for reference."

Li Yuanai said with interest: "Let's talk about it."

Liu Renguidao: "Apart from the King of Wu, I am afraid no one knows this thing. Since I am only controlled by the King of Wu, I can apply cotton like salt and iron to the government. I will be directly controlled by the court. This will completely eliminate merchants' struggles and ensure that everyone in the world can enjoy this convenience. This method emphasizes small profits but quick turnover, seeks benefits for the people, and can obtain long-term benefits."

"There is another method, which is to find a big merchant. The right to cotton is handed over to them with full authority. This method can obtain the full profit of strange goods. Once the cotton coats and quilts are released, it is determined to raise the price to a high price, which can make a huge profit in the short term. Moreover, it can be operated by the big merchants and revitalized in Jiangnan, which also has miraculous effects."

Li Yuanai was becoming more and more satisfied with Liu Rengui's long history. In just a short time, he could come up with two strategies to focus on the people and profits. It was really not simple.

He reminded: "Have you ever thought about using the two strategies in combination?"

Liu Rengui looked surprised and asked, "How to synthesize this?"

Li Yuanai did not hide it and said bluntly: "Open an official workshop, directly build a workshop for making cotton coats and quilts in the name of the government, and then sell it to the public. First, it can attract merchants to go south to Jiangnan and stimulate the economy of Jiangnan. Second, it can also determine the price, so that cotton coats and quilts are fair, not luxury goods prepared only for nobles and gentry."

A hint of joy flashed in Liu Rengui's eyes.

But Di Zhixun interrupted at this time and said, "Will this be suspected of competing for profit with the people?"

"No!" Li Yuanai shook his head and said, "The purpose of the official workshop is to develop the economy and benefit the people, not to make money, nor to monopolize them. As long as the purpose is achieved, the workshop can be sold to merchants who want to take over the workshop at any time."

Liu Rengui hurriedly said: "This move has great potential, and it is the method of both worlds."

Li Yuanai wrote to Li Shimin, and Li Zhi's memorial was handed over to Liu Rengui, and he announced his general plan for the future of Jiangnan to the people below to know.

Only the father and son of the Li family and some of the bigwigs in the temple knew about this memorial. Before Liu Rengui and others were promoted by Li Yuanai, the highest status was the county magistrate, and it was not enough to know the content of the "Governing Jiangnan Miscellaneous".

You should know that this letter of "Zheng Jiangnan Shu" has suppressed a lot of bigwigs in the temple, including Li Shimin and Li Zhi, the father and son.

His "Governing Jiangnan" includes the economic development trend of Jiangnan in the next three hundred years, which later generations directly evaluated by the world's No. 1 world's most important governance.

If the only drawback is that the writing style is too bad and the writing is too straightforward.

Liu Rengui looked at Li Yuanai's "governing Jiangnan Shu" and attached great importance to business descriptions, and hurriedly said: "The King of Wu is a talented man, and his subordinates are ashamed of being as good as him."

After reading it, he handed it to Di Zhixun.

Di Zhixun didn't say anything after seeing it for a long time.

Lou Shide, who has always been low-key, looked at it and his eyes were shocked.

As for Shangguan Yi, he had widened his eyes. The "Governing Jiangnan Shu" has a detailed description of the fatigue of Jiangnan culture. He started voluntary teaching, encouraged children's childhood examinations and adult provincial examinations and provincial examinations. The detailed and detailed descriptions are more detailed than what he considered.

Lu Zhaolin looked at Li Yuanai with admiration.

Seeing this, Li Yuanai smiled quite complacently.

He knew in his heart that none of his five subordinates, except Lu Zhaolin, was sincerely looking to him.

A person with high talent must have a high mind.

They just received the appointment from Li Zhi and had to become their subordinates, do their best for themselves, and just regard themselves as a pedal for promotion.

This problem needs to be cured.

You are the boss, and you can't be disrespectful to the boss.

As Li Yuanai thought, they each had their own thoughts, but without exception, they planned to take this opportunity to perform well and take a step forward.
