Take the mall to Datang

"Husband, this matter is difficult, just do your best, Qian Yu will be yours sooner or later." Du Qianyu said softly.

Yuan Shan blinked his eyes, these words didn't sound too tempting, but he knew that it was Du Qianyu who came to him to reassure him, just like what he said just now that the matter involved the Supreme Emperor, Li Shimin could handle it , but there must be an opportunity, otherwise there is no way to explain the affairs of the court in the palace. Now Li Yuan is under house arrest in the Tai Chi Palace. If it goes too far, it will offend all the courtiers.

But Yuan Shan believes that Li Shimin is a man of courage and will not delay the great future of His Majesty the Emperor for such a small matter, so Yuan Shan can only do what he likes, since he wants an invincible army, then give it to him. He is fine, the grenades and cannons produced by the Military Weapons Supervisor are enough for Li Shimin to destroy the Turks.

Chapter 298 Sewing Machine

"Xinyue, what are you looking at by the door? What's wrong with the second lady?" He Ye's voice instantly disrupted Xinyue's concentration. Ye was relieved.

"Sister He Ye, you scared me to death, shhh." Xinyue pouted and made a silent gesture.

"You little peeping tom, this is the first time I've discovered it. There's something interesting inside, isn't it just that?" He Ye whispered, suddenly thinking of something very harmonious and easy to be harmonized. In the picture, his face is still slightly red.

Xinyue didn't know what Heye was thinking, but his curiosity was unusually great. He wanted to take a sneak peek when he was discovered by Heye, but Xinyue was very disappointed because nothing happened in the house. .

"Xinyue, what are you doing muttering at the door? Hurry up and bring in the first-aid kit." Yuan Shan shouted suddenly. In fact, Du Qianyu already knew that Xinyue was eavesdropping outside the door, because he did this every time, I'm used to it, Xinyue is the type of girl who won't change after repeated admonitions, and won't listen to anything she says.

"Master, I'm here." Xinyue pushed the door and entered, pretending to be panting.

Yuan Shan looked at the little girl Xinyue and thought that she was pretty good at pretending, but she was a good material for an actor. Unfortunately, the Yuanjia Theater was not available yet. It suddenly occurred to her that this was indeed the case. The original plan was to play the Tang Dynasty. Forget about entertainment.

For more than a year, I have been patronizing business to make money. Now that I have money, I don’t want to be happy. I thought that I didn’t stop. First aid, some medicines, such as cold medicine, anti-inflammatory medicine, etc., as well as gauze needles and threads for suturing wounds, disinfectant liquid medicine, etc., especially the necessary things such as Yunnan Baiyao.

When Yuan Shan came back, he didn't take the wooden medicine box back, because it was unnecessary, and he could exchange these things from the system mall at any time if needed. Right now, there are first-aid kits in the county that can be used directly, and it can also let Xinyue and Du Qian Yu knows how to use the things inside, and being able to change Du Qianyu's hands is the best of both worlds.

After changing the medicine for Du Qianyu, Yuan Shan asked He Ye, "He Ye, how is the situation with the female workers?"

"Back to young master, there are too few female workers, and the output can't keep up." He Ye said.

"Isn't it already equipped with a Jenny loom? Why can't the output keep up?" Yuan Shan asked.

"Master, this is not a problem of cotton cloth production. Only the young master and his wife use fine craftsmanship to weave the cotton cloth of the Yuan family. The clothes and some products sold in the mall are all ready-made cotton cloth purchased from textile factories. The main reason is that the sewing speed is not as fast as No, so the output is not fast." He Ye explained.

"It turns out that's the case. I didn't think about it. It's a bit embarrassing for dozens of female workers to be responsible for the sewing volume of a shopping mall. Besides, they sew cotton shoes stitch by stitch. There are not many female workers. Now I’m even more nervous.” Speaking of Yuan Shan’s thoughts, he regretted sending the female workers to the textile factory, but now those female workers are working as small foremen and their living conditions are very good, so it’s impossible to transfer them again return.

At that time, Yuanshan made this arrangement because there were too many Yuan family members. Now he regrets it a little, but he can't do anything now, at least not to chill people's hearts. To convene so many people, we can only start with technology, which changes destiny and the problem of insufficient productivity.

So Yuanshan suddenly thought of sewing machines. It is not difficult to make a sewing machine in Datang, because both hand-operated and pedal-operated sewing machines can be made. The only difference is that hand-operated sewing machines are mainly used for sewing shoes. The world's first sewing machine was used to sew shoes.

If two people use the hand-cranked sewing machine to cooperate, it is actually quite good, but it will never have the speed of a pedal-operated sewing machine, but it is indeed easier to make. Thinking of this, Yuanshan has already had an idea in his heart. There is no need to go to the system mall to buy, he can design it directly, just let the blacksmiths build it.

But the time needed in this way may be something Yuan Shan doesn't want to see. Yuan Shanxin said that the equipment of hand-operated shoes in the system mall is not expensive at all, only three hundred, why did the units in the back turn into gold.

Yuan Shan was stunned for a moment. A hand-operated shoe machine cost 300 taels of gold. He suddenly discovered a problem, so he searched the system mall for an old-fashioned pedal sewing machine that cost 800 taels of gold.

He started to be confused, what's going on? Why are these equipments so expensive? The expensive ones have exceeded their imagination. Then Yuanshan searched for some "manual" and "automatic" equipment in the system mall, as long as it is like this All the units behind have become gold seat units. Yuan Shan has never paid attention to these things, and never thought that things in the system mall would be so expensive.

Yuanshan usually pays attention to some trivial things, but machinery is different. He thinks that it is not difficult to produce hand-operated sewing machines with Datang's current level of technology, but it takes a lot of time. As far as the workshop is concerned, if it is replaced by other blacksmiths, it will take a long time to build the equipment.

"Should I exchange it or not?" Yuan Shan began to struggle in his heart. It takes 800 taels of gold to exchange a sewing machine. If the sewing speed is replaced by a skilled worker, it will definitely be as fast as ten people's sewing speed or even faster.

But how to explain the source of the exchanged out, this made Yuanshan a little embarrassed, now all the applications of Datang are made by Yuanshan through Yuanjia Workshop, and now I directly upload a finished product, I don’t know what will happen. However, Yuan Shan is not a pedantic and stubborn person. He thought that since the system mall has been given such magical things, it is not good to use it. What I hate is being a porter, but I didn’t say I don’t like being a buyer.

So Yuan Shan first went to the backyard of the Yuan family. This is the backyard of the inner courtyard. It is mainly a place for bathing and a pavilion for enjoying the shade. Yuanshan didn't stop because the place he was going to was the backyard of the backyard, which was a pavilion building. , while in the back is the nursery etc.

When the backyard of the Yuan family was built, there were no employees here. The craftsmen who were invited later renovated it a little bit, and have never had the opportunity to use it. At present, there are still many houses in the Yuan family. Of course, the construction on the left side is completed. Afterwards, this place was recognized by Yuan Shan as his laboratory.

For this laboratory, Yuan Shan had to buy some broken parts from the system mall at a huge sum of money, and then piled them up in this pavilion before exchanging them for a finished sewing machine. This was his first time. He was not ready to exchange this kind of thing, but he thought that since he had done it, he would do it to the end.

Chapter 299

The life at home began to become dull, because to increase the production of garments, Yuan Shan began to prepare a laboratory in the backyard of the main house, that is, in the attic of the backyard, there are many other parts. In short, it is unpredictable what he is doing. What.

It is not very easy to exchange goods from the mall, it is the same as normal shopping, all kinds of accessories are not bought blindly, about equipment parts such as shoemaking, weaving clothes and some handmade DIY tools are all piled up in the house overnight inside.

Yuan Shan has been packing these things for the past few days. Anyway, it looks like a mess and everything is there, but the finished sewing machines are already there, and they cost a lot of money for these things. That's enough for the net worth, because this kind of equipment is calculated in gold units.

The manual shoe machine and sewing machine cost more than 1000 taels of gold. The price of some accessories is relatively reasonable, but the needles used are still relatively expensive.

"Sister Qianyu, how is your hand?" Dugu Ruolan asked with concern.

"Sister, she's much better, and she should be fine in a while." Du Qianyu replied.

Dugu Ruolan saw the injury on Du Qianyu's hand. According to Yuan Shan, the wound was serious and needed to recuperate for a long time. Yuan Shan had been doing nothing in the attic in the backyard for the past few days, so Lan took the initiative to take care of Du Qianyu.

While the two were talking, He Ye came over and said, "Miss, Ma Zhou brought someone here and said he was looking for the young master."

"He Ye, go to the backyard to see where your husband is, and tell him what happened." Dugu Ruolan said.

Yuan Shan told her about hiring an accountant. Ma Zhou must have come here today for this purpose. After a period of contact with business, Dugu Ruolan quite likes doing business. It's all under her management, and Dugu Ruolan is also looking forward to it.

After a while, Yuan Shan followed He Ye from the backyard. Dugu Ruolan saw Yuan Shan's messy body and immediately went up to help him tidy his clothes.

"Husband, how did you make it like this, these guys can ask He Ye to help you." Dugu Ruolan asked with concern.

"It's okay. I'm working on inventions and creations. You can't help me right now. I'll let you guys come when it's applied. I'll go see Mrs. Ma Zhou first." Yuan Shan said.

Dugu Ruolan followed Yuan Shan out of the yard. At this moment, Ma Zhou was waiting in the living room, and she was accompanied by six women. These women were no strangers in the Yuan family. They were all female workers, and they were transferred to work as foremen in the textile factory. Yes, they have the ability to settle accounts with their own hard work, and now they are Ma Zhou's secretarial team.

"Ma Zhou, how are you doing these days? Do you always stay up late at work?" Yuan Shan walked in and asked.

Ma Zhou said with some guilt: "It's okay, thank you for your concern, young master."

Yuan Shan has nothing to do with him, he is a natural workaholic and there is no way to stop him, and Yuan Shan also understands that only at work is a kind of self-expression of value, which cannot be changed by anyone.

"I called you back to discuss matters with you about the Cotton Chamber of Commerce. I plan to transfer you back to Yuanjia to work. You can make a liaison officer at the Cotton Chamber of Commerce to ensure that I, the president, earn money from the Chamber of Commerce and other things. , your job is to manage the various investment projects involved in the Yuan Family." Yuan Shan said.

"Young master." Ma Zhou was a little excited. What Yuan Shan said now was much more powerful than the housekeeper's rights. It was directly related to interests. Every investment project of the Yuan family was like burning money, casually. Can he not be excited about the investment of thousands of taels of gold?

Yuan Shan entrusted him with the work, which meant that he trusted him. Unlike the butler, he was not a domestic slave of the Yuan family, but could only be regarded as a hired worker.

"Calm down, I believe that you are qualified for this job now. In fact, you just need to let the industry go on smoothly. The specific tasks should be assigned to your subordinates. You must know that a smart manager is not alone. In battle, he needs a lot of capable helpers to accomplish what he wants to achieve. You, a workaholic, cannot say that you are wrong, but you still need to think about things in a different way, which will be of great help to you in the future. help." Yuan Shan said.

"Yes, young master." Ma Zhou replied.

"One more thing today is that your secretarial team needs to be adjusted. The six people you lead have performed very well and are very capable in terms of finance. I plan to let them come over to be the accountants of the Yuan family. What do you think of my wife working together?" Yuan Shan asked.

"The young master has a unique insight and they do have financial capabilities, and they helped me a lot during my work at the Cotton Chamber of Commerce." Ma Zhou replied.

"Hahaha, it looks like you're a bit reluctant. Could it be that you've fallen in love with one of them, or all of them? Would you like me to help you make something good happen?" Yuan Shan joked.

"Young Master, Ma Zhou has absolutely no such intentions. We usually only have contact at work and we don't have any overstepping behavior." Ma Zhou said nervously. He thought that these six people were selected by Yuan Shan, and In Chang'an, it was said that Yuan Shan was extremely romantic, so it was not difficult for Ma Zhou to think about it.

"You are really boring, and you don't even know humor at all. EQ is as important as IQ. It seems that the common problem of workaholics is that people will become stupid after a long time." Yuan Shan said.

"It's nothing. You don't need to clarify it like this. It doesn't matter. It's a good thing. If you are not married to her, there is nothing to avoid. People like you are people with great ability and ability, so at work Desperation is your dedication, and you can't let it go in life. You must know how to reconcile, and I will give you four words 'good morality', and you should do what others can tolerate. Maybe one day you will understand Yes, I will stay with your secretarial group, and you should hurry up and hand over work with the Cotton Chamber of Commerce, and then go to the business center to work, and now you need to keep an eye on the projects there." Yuan Shan once again joked.

In fact, Yuan Shan was just talking nonsense. He might forget what he said later, but he didn't expect that Ma Zhou really had a good memory. Therefore, after Ma Zhou's son was born, he directly used Yuan Shan to say this "good virtue" His son is Ma Zai, who was promoted many times during the Xianheng period and became the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.
