Chapter 601: Revitalization of Industry and Commerce
After hearing Liu Ye’s words, Qin Hao was also stunned.
Liu Ye did not seek the welfare of his master, but instead immediately considered himself, which moved Qin Hao deeply.
"Zi Yang, I am very pleased that you have considered me so much. Let's do this. I will leave the factory to you."
Qin Hao smiled and patted Liu Ye's shoulder, encouraging him: "Do your best and don't let me down."
Liu Ye is not inferior in terms of strategy or internal affairs, but compared to Wang Meng and Liu Ji, he is still inferior.
However, Liu Ye's strengths are incomparable to both Wang Meng and Liu Ji, and that is his craftsmanship.
So Qin Hao positions Liu Ye as the future "Minister of Industry", in charge of the country's logistics and the country's ordnance manufacturing. Of course, he must also step forward to act as a military advisor at critical moments.
Hearing that his lord had entrusted him with such an important task, Liu Ye was extremely happy and quickly thanked him:
“Thank you for your lord’s trust, Liu Ye will die in your lord’s service.”
Qin Hao handed over the factory to Liu Ye, which was actually the same nature as re-employing Duan Murong. He took the initiative to show favor to the workers.
After Liu Ye’s reminder, Qin Hao also gave up the idea of using technical drawings to win over the workers. After all, the risks of doing so were too high.
Failing to win over, Qin Hao can only increase his interest investment so that the workers can actively participate, and Liu Ye is just an introduction.
The establishment of medical camps and factories is in full swing in Nanyang, and the revitalization of business has also been put on Qin Hao's agenda in advance.
If business is not promoted, Nanyang's finances will really collapse, so it is urgent to promote business.
Although Nanyang's finances are in crisis, Qin Hao is not panic at all, because he already has a complete set of plans for Nanyang's business revitalization in his mind.
Glass, soap, and books have long been produced by Qin Hao's people. However, the situation before was too chaotic and not suitable for promotion. Now is a good time to make these things available.
In the study room, Shen Wansan stood in front of Zina obediently, slowly reporting on all the business operations since arriving in Nanyang.
“Young Master, the family’s new caravan has been reorganized, and the steel field has also been built. As long as the iron ore arrives, steel production can be carried out at any time.
The steel produced in the steel plant can not only build weapons and equipment for the army, but also farm equipment and sell it for profit, which is the top priority of Qin Hao's business plan.
“You don’t have to worry about iron ore. Several iron ore and coal mines have been discovered in Nanyang, which are enough to support the production and operation of steel plants.”
Qin Hao glanced at Shen Wansan, who was a little excited, and asked calmly: "How are the construction of the other three factories going?"
Hearing this, Shen Wansan quickly said: "Young Master, the glass factory, soap factory, and paper factory have also been built, and production can be done at any time as soon as the raw materials arrive."
Among the three major factories, the glass factory and the paper factory are relatively simple to collect raw materials, while soap requires animal fats for processing. Although it is a little more troublesome than the above, it is also a good thing with huge profits.
Seeing that Shen Wansan was doing things flawlessly, Qin Hao couldn't help but admire him in his heart.
It’s no wonder that Shen Wansan could become his mother’s confidant and build the factory in such a short period of time. Shen Wansan’s ability to do things is indeed very strong.
“Let the factory start full production from today. I have also sent people to purchase soap raw materials, and production will start as soon as they arrive.”
Speaking of this, Qin Hao thought of another thing and asked: "By the way, the recruitment of workers must be strict, and there must be no mistakes."
"Young master, don't worry. The top management of the factory are all people transferred from Bingzhou. Only the bottom level are newly recruited, but they are all Nanyang natives with innocent wealth." Qin Hao nodded with satisfaction, and then warned: "You must pay attention to safety and confidentiality measures. If you make any mistakes, don't come to see me."
“Young master, don’t worry, the workers are all locals. Once they enter the factory, they will be isolated from the outside world and have no contact with the outside world.”
The "fundamentals" in Shen Wansan's words were not safe at all in Qin Hao's eyes, so he added:
“I will mobilize the military camp and the trapped camp to garrison the factory. Remember, it must be absolutely foolproof.”
Shen Wansan's eyes were full of shock. The young master actually valued these few factories so much that he even sent the two most elite battalions of Po Jun and Zhen Zhen to garrison them. Shen Wansan felt that he might have underestimated the value of these factories.
Shen Wansan is a businessman at heart, and his vision is still at the businessman level. How can he see the military value behind the commercial value of these factories.
Seeing that the richest man in the early Ming Dynasty in the original history had now become a loyal servant of his family, Qin Hao suddenly had the idea of beating him.
“Shen Wansan, how long have you been working for our Qin family?”
Shen Wansan was stunned for a moment, and then he replied respectfully: "Young master, it has been eight years now."
“It’s not short, tell me about your experience.”
"Yes, the younger one wandered from Jizhou to Yanmen eight years ago and joined the Qin family's caravan as a refugee. Then he started as a servant and now he has become one of the three chief stewards of the Qin family."
Qin Hao nodded, smiled and praised: "In just eight years, you have grown from a young boy to a big manager now. This is unique in our Qin family, and it is enough to prove your ability."
Shen Wansan didn't quite understand the young master's intention. Was he just asking himself to introduce his past resume to praise his outstanding abilities?
"but…"
A smile flashed across Qin Hao's lips and he said, "Shen Wansan, you are no longer promoted, are you really willing to be a steward for the rest of your life?"
Shen Wansan was immediately shocked and his back was soaked with sweat. He quickly knelt down and kowtowed.
"Young Master, Shen Wansan is what he is today, thanks to the gift of the Qin family. Shen Wansan is willing to serve the Qin family for the rest of his life, and he will never dare to have any different intentions."
Shen Wansan has reached the peak of his career as a servant. He knew that his master could not give him more, but he did not dare to have the slightest objection.
The Qin family, an ordinary business family, was able to grow into the current vassal family in just eight years. Every step they took and every decision they made were extremely cautious.
To put it bluntly, every step the Qin family takes is paved with countless corpses from other families.
Among them, there are many things that are not suitable for the Qin family to solve, but people like Shen Wansan come to solve them for the Qin family.
In the past eight years, these people have helped the Qin family deal with countless dirty things in secret. They are indispensable for the Qin family's growth.
Shen Wansan is one of the executors behind the scenes, so he clearly knows the darkness hidden behind the scenes of the Qin family, so he is in awe of the Qin family, to the point where he does not dare to have any objections.
