Three Kingdoms: Liu Daer Was Forced Out of the Mountain at the Beginning - Chapter 1384
Remember [] for a second,!
“Everyone, this time Hanzhong Hou shot, it can be said that it has caused a serious blow to us.”
Liu Yan finally spoke up.
This time he has to admit that he really has no good way to deal with Bai Feng’s joint construction of the steam engine workshop and the soap workshop.
Because it’s not a question of opening new markets anymore.
The problem is that Youzhou can’t imitate the steam engine at all.
And the popularity of steam engines among the Daweis is far more than that of soaps.
After all, soap, no matter how good it is, is a daily necessities. Once you buy it, it will be gone.
The steam engine is a machine, a machine that can continuously create value for the nobility.
Even though Dawei has not yet entered the industrial age, after the use of hydraulic looms.
All the nobility agreed that machines were more efficient and managed better than humans, and the point was that they didn’t have to pay the machines or worry about getting sick.
The efficiency of steam looms is not only improved more than hydraulic looms, but also the output is more stable.
Because the hydraulic loom mainly relies on the river to power the loom.
Winters in the north are very cold, and rivers freeze.
This makes the hydraulic loom unable to work in the northern winter.
And in times of drought, the output of water conservancy looms will be greatly reduced.
But the steam loom solves this problem perfectly, producing continuously for twelve hours all day long.
Don’t worry about the weather yet.
On the surface, the output of the steam loom is 30% higher than that of the water loom, but if it is calculated according to the annual output.
Compared with the hydraulic loom, the steam loom has more than doubled the output.
After hearing Liu Yan’s statement, the Youzhou nobility also frowned.
“Prefect, now the soap in our hands has indeed been sold in Liangzhou and Yongzhou.”
“But the new soap workshop has also started, and soon the number of soaps in our hands will exceed the first batch.”
The nobles in Youzhou, as well as the craftsmen of the soap workshop, are also continuously improving the soap production technology spontaneously.
At present, the output of Youzhou Soap Workshop has increased by more than 20% compared to the beginning.
But at the time when they were about to make a lot of money, Bai Feng’s single-handed cooperation made Youzhou’s nobles deeply realize what a two-level reversal is.
“If this batch of soaps can’t be sold, then we are really going to lose money!”
The Youzhou nobleman said here, the despair in his tone was very obvious.
The other nobles were also very silent at this time.
After a while, another Youzhou nobleman said:
“Prefect, why don’t we sell this batch of soap in Liangzhou and Yongzhou at a lower price now?”
Just like Bai Feng used a batch of soap to open the Xianbei market at a low price before, this time there are still Youzhou nobility who put forward the suggestion to sell the soap in their hands to return the money.
In any case, this time Youzhou soap can still be sold to Liangzhou and Yongzhou, which is much better than the previous situation.
After this nobleman proposed to return the blood, no other nobleman directly came out to oppose it like the last time.
They also know that soap has no advantage in the face of steam engines.
After Liu Yan heard the words, he couldn’t help but nodded.
“Yes, we have no better way now.”
In the face of Liu Yan’s approval, the Youzhou nobles who were present also tacitly agreed to sell the batch of soap to Liangzhou and Yongzhou at a low price.
Then the nobles left Liu Yan’s mansion one after another.
Most of them are going to ship the soap in the warehouse to Liangzhou and Yongzhou, and quickly sell it at a low price.
As for whether the nobles in Liangzhou and Yongzhou who have invested in the Youzhou Soap Workshop still have dividends, it is no longer within their consideration.
If you are going to lose money yourself, how can you still think about other people’s dividends?
There are also a small number of Youzhou nobles who are not in a hurry to go to the warehouse to deliver goods.
“If you want me to say, isn’t it just for money that we are fighting against Hanzhong Hou this time?”
“It is now clear that you can earn more money by investing in the soap workshop in Hanzhong Hou, and then investing in the steam engine workshop!”
In the private room of a restaurant, several Youzhou nobles were talking in a low voice.
“In order to make money, I really don’t want to be greedy… But aren’t we just not human inside and out?”
The prestige of the nobility is sometimes very important. After all, it is not only in the official circles, but a family with great prestige among the people that is qualified to be called a nobility.
So in the face of this choice of all looking at money, there is still a nobleman who couldn’t help but say it.
The other two clansmen who were going to go along with them were suddenly silent after hearing the words.
“What pot can’t be lifted without opening it!”
The nobleman who spoke first cursed in his heart.
“What Brother Wei said really makes sense.”
“But we have already offended Hanzhong Hou. If we don’t seize the opportunity to make amends to Hanzhong Hou as soon as possible, then there will be no chance in the future!”
“If you offend the prefect, Liu Yan is almost seventy years old this year. How many years can he stay in this prefect?”
“But Hanzhong Hou is only in his early thirties, but it’s not much different from His Royal Highness!”
“Think about it, big guy!”
After speaking, the nobleman looked at the other noblemen in the private room.
The gentry who said that the inside and outside were not human also became speechless at this time.
“Yes, yes, Brother Cheng is right!”
“Why are we not human inside and out?”
“We are now preparing to stand on the side of the Hanzhong Hou, if we say that we are abandoning the dark and turning to the light!”
With Cheng surnamed gentry finding a suitable excuse for them, other gentry immediately echoed their words.
Compared to continuing to hug Liu Yan’s thigh, UU reading www.uukanshu.com or Bai Feng’s thigh is thicker and longer!
Anyone with eyes can see this.
“Brother Cheng is right, but I didn’t figure it out, haha, haha!”
The nobility who said they were not human inside and outside finally joined the ranks of people who were not human inside and out…
Just when the Youzhou nobles were busy preparing to ship soap to Liangzhou and Yongzhou for sale, and a small number of Youzhou nobles were already preparing to “give up from the dark and become bright”.
The nobles of Liangzhou and Yongzhou were not idle either.
Although Liangzhou and Yongzhou are far away from the sky and the emperor, they are not isolated places.
The news that Cao Jie was engaged in the linkage between the steam engine workshop and the soap workshop in Yizhou naturally reached the ears of the Liangzhou and Yongzhou nobles.
Now the nobles in Liangzhou and Yongzhou are thinking about how to make Cao Jie come to Liangzhou and Yongzhou earlier to build soap workshops and steam engine workshops, and they are ready to invest in shares.
These silvers are still left over from the first dividend after taking a stake in Youzhou Soap Workshop..
