Daming: I became Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest son

"The production of telescopes requires processes such as material collection, mirror frame making, glass making, installation, and quality inspection, among which there are many detailed processes."

Zhu Tao explained.

"I am now looking for five veteran craftsmen to do it together. Although the quality is better, the efficiency is too slow. If each skilled craftsman is in charge of one of the processes, and a large number of workers are recruited, one of them will be specially carried out under their guidance. process, the efficiency will be greatly improved.”

"After all, being in charge of a single process does not require particularly powerful skills, as long as you can work according to the rules."

"Good idea!" Zhu Yuanzhang slapped his hands.

He could imagine that if this assembly line was implemented, he was helping to recruit workers, and a steady stream of binoculars appeared, which could be worn by any small officer in the army, so why would the remnants of Beiyuan dare to fight against the Ming army?
"Tao'er, how much money does this assembly line cost, take it for my father, let's start it as soon as possible!"

Liu Bowen and the others looked at each other, good guy, is this going to be a new move?

Looking at Zhu Yuanzhang's appearance, I am afraid that it is not just a telescope. Once the concept of the assembly line proposed by Zhu Tao is effective enough, then I am afraid that Zhu Yuanzhang will follow suit and establish an assembly line system in more production fields.

There are too many new actions of the imperial court recently. The cabinet system, the national business system, and the distribution of people into the mu, each of which has a pivotal influence.

The bureaucrats and emperors of all dynasties paid attention to the old-fashioned, and governed the country according to the rules of the past. The more stable the better, Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bowen and others used to have this idea, so Liu Bowen can safely be a dumb in the court. Why let him come up with ideas.

However, the appearance of Zhu Tao changed their views. They suddenly felt that it would be good to have a wave of big news every few days.

Because every time Zhu Tao came up with a new trick, and the court performed a new move, it meant that Daming made a better progress.

This is not instability, but a new climate.

Sichuan, Yunnan, and Beiyuan, these separatist places are still using the old methods to recuperate, and are ready to counterattack Daming or strengthen the rule, but Daming is getting stronger and stronger under Zhu Tao's attention.

If this ebb and flow continues, the day when Da Ming really wants to deal with them, I am afraid it will not take much effort, just like suppressing the peasant uprising army.

"It's winter now, there will be no shortage of workers, and the person in charge is ready-made. If you don't make too big ones, maybe 1000 taels of silver is enough, and you can make about [-] telescopes a day, plus you have your way , and the product can be sold quickly, and the initial investment does not need to be too much." Zhu Tao calculated.

"1000 taels?" Zhu Yuanzhang exclaimed, and the others were also shocked.

1000 taels is enough to be called an astronomical figure in the current Ming Dynasty, and even if a palace is built in the palace, the sum of all expenses is this price.

But Zhu Yuanzhang's reaction was not that the price was too high, but that it was too cheap.

The telescopes that Zhu Yuanzhang left in the palace cost a lot of gold. This kind of monocular is estimated to be worth a tael of gold, and spending 1000 taels to build a field can earn dozens of taels of gold every day!

This is simply picking up money!
The kind that can't fit in a sack!
"Father, don't look at the large investment, but it includes the cost of poaching people, the cost of purchasing various materials and materials, and even the cost of subsequent sales and transportation, and the payback will definitely be fast."

Zhu Tao thought that Zhu Yuanzhang and the others thought it was too expensive, but thinking about it, his father was only a businessman after all, so it might be very difficult for him to spend so much money all at once.

"Well, I'll start some business first, and work hard this month. I'll earn 1000 taels first, and then use it as capital." Zhu Tao exercised his muscles and bones, and he was prepared in his heart. Telescopes are a lucrative job. Hard work Month, don't sleep late, first get out the capital, and then lie on the profits of the telescope factory to eat and sleep, sleep and eat.

In this way, at least half of his dandy's dream can be realized.

However, Zhu Tao's understatement scared the others.

"Tao'er, your ability to make money is much better than your father!" Empress Ma said with a smile, and stepped forward to pat Zhu Tao's head.

Song Lian smiled: "The Young Master's family is full of geniuses. Although they can't earn 1000 taels, 100 taels is definitely not a problem. It's not like me and other old people who only know how to study hard when they are as old as the Shaodong family."

Song Lian didn't think that Zhu Tao could really make a thousand taels a month, but thought he was young and frivolous, so he interjected to save Zhu Tao from embarrassment when he remembered that he was bragging.

He also specially encouraged Zhu Tao. After all, he was Zhu Yuanzhang's adoptive son, and he was so talented and learned that Song Lian also admired him a little.

After Song Lian finished speaking, he looked at Liu Bowen and Li Shanchang with a smile, waiting for them to come out to echo and give some encouragement to the Young Master.

However, Song Lian found that except for Zhu Di, everyone else looked shocked.

Song Lian was silent.

What, you all believe it?

Could it be that you just believe what this kid says?
Are you serious?

Zhu Di also saw that the expressions of the people around him were wrong, so he asked cautiously: "What's the matter, everyone, is it possible that what my cousin said is true?"

Liu Bowen nodded first: "The young master said so, then it will definitely be done."

If ordinary people or even Zhu Yuanzhang said this, Liu Bowen would scoff, but if Zhu Tao said it, then he would definitely believe it!
Moreover, if the telescope factory is completed and has the effect that Zhu Tao said, wouldn't it be able to earn a thousand taels a month?

"My son is just like Lord Zhu Tao!"

Zhu Taogong Fan Li, who entered the court as an official, was able to assist the King of Yue to swallow Wu, left the court to do business, and became the richest man several times.If it is true, Zhu Tao really looks like him.

But why is such a smart person so lazy?
Talented, but don't want to be an official, the future of being a marquis and minister is like a shoestring, has the ability to make money, but is too lazy to go, and would rather eat, drink and have fun in the house every day!
孽 孽!
Zhu Yuanzhang looked up to the sky and sighed, he was convinced.

"I'm going to get rid of your lazy temper sooner or later!" Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Oh, forget it, the money for the construction of the factory will be paid by my father, and I will give you 2000 taels for you to do business. I'm afraid you will be exhausted .Anyway, our family is not short of money."

In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang is not willing to let Zhu Tao focus on business. As the son he recognizes, how can he be short of money? Why not think more about national affairs, and think about which girl is more meaningful than making money .

Zhu Tao was a little surprised: "Our family has so much money? Dad, isn't your business illegal?"
