Chapter 740 The role of cooperatives
Han Xizai tried hard to join the debate, but he found that this situation was not unfamiliar with it. Wasn’t it the case when he first built the Shu Road?
Do you still remember the solution at that time?
Use more slaves!
But when Han Xizai made this self-righteous suggestion, both Guo Zongxun and Guo Xingge were unanimously opposed!
This is strange. People who were originally blushing and thick-necked in the fight were unanimous to the public. Did you pretend just now?
Brother Guo Xing said first: "I don't object to using slaves in the mine, but if the factory also uses slaves, I will never agree!"
"Why? Not all people, what's the difference?"
"Mr. Han, do you know that factory workers must obey commands, have the ability to learn, and be able to produce qualified parts... This is a matter that cannot be careless at all. If they are careless, they will kill people!"
Brother Guo Xing remembered the scalded craftsman during the steam engine experiment. There were scars on the back of his hands. The pain reminded him that factory production was a very rigorous thing.
Without long-term training and mastering certain skills, you will not be able to handle tasks.
Those barbarian slaves had the strength to not even understand Chinese language, did not pay attention to discipline, and could only do simple physical labor. It was harder than climbing to the sky to train them to be qualified workers.
What's more, even if it can be cultivated, Brother Guo Xing is not ready to share the secrets of industrial production with the barbarians.
Ye Hua concluded: "Kung Fu Han, a good laborer must have three qualities: the willingness to work, the ability to work, and the discipline of labor... To be honest, if a Han family is trained a little, they can become an excellent laborer. As for others, it really won't be possible!"
Ye Hua did not put gilds on the faces of the Han people... It was passed down from his ancestors. The Han people were an extremely secular group and valued the present very much.
I believe that kings, princes, generals and ministers have a good life, and that they should be the sons of the country in the morning and reach the emperor's hall in the evening.
Therefore, Han people rarely accept their fate and have a positive and enterprising spirit in their bones. If they are trained and guided properly, they will work hard and strive to create wealth. They not only need to live a good life on their own, but also leave legacy for their descendants.
If it were the third brother, the situation would be completely different.
People believe in reincarnation and don’t care about this life at all. Now you beat me and scold me, I won’t be angry at all. In the next life, I will naturally be beaten back. Moreover, the more suffering you suffer in this life, the more pious your heart will be. Given by Lord Shiva, you will become a high caste in the next life and be reborn.
Just because of the third brother's optimistic and lazy spirit and unprofitable spirit, it is like a dream to expect them to become qualified workers.
The situation of the barbarians in the north was not much better. Ye Hua had seen some tribes escaping from the Khitan in the Western Regions. He learned about the situation with them and found that many tribes even had no idea of age.
They don’t know how old they are. They lie down to sleep at night, and they will die. When they wake up the next day, they will be resurrected. One day they can’t lie down and get up, they will die completely...
Let them enter the factory and go to the production line, and the brands manufactured by Dazhou will be completely destroyed.
So in the eyes of Brother Guo Xing and others, workers must be young, smart, trained and educated...
"I object!" Guo Zongxun said firmly: "Rural areas are the foundation of everything. Without food and without the stability of the countryside, everything about you is a castle in the air... And have you ever thought about it? If farmers are forcibly forced to enter the city and become workers, can they feel at ease? If someone is determined to take advantage of the peasant's resentment and trigger a conflict between the two sides, can your factory still operate?"
"It is especially important. What can the guns and cannons produced by factories be used for? It's not just expanding territory and going out to fight wars! What's the difference between using troops from the Western Regions? People in the world, especially farmers, suffer from them before they get benefits! Peng Hai's example is right in front of you. How many farmers do you want to force death?"
What Guo Zongxun said was so arrogant that Han Xizai admired him very much.
Is this the naughty prince back then?
He couldn't believe it, Han Xizai's eyes were red and he was moved: "Your Highness is kind, it is really a blessing for the people!"
Li Si glanced at Han Xizai and said disdainfully: "Grandpa Han, no matter what, the Great Zhou still wants to use troops to the outside world and create an unprecedented prosperous era! No matter what, Your Majesty will support our proposal!"
Li Si told the key point of the matter, and Han Xizai was suddenly stopped.
Obviously, when this lawsuit is fought with Chai Rong, His Majesty the Emperor will undoubtedly stand on the side of King Shang, King Wang and King Li... What should we do at that time?
Han Xizai gritted his teeth, "As a court official, he can only do his duty. If Your Majesty ignores the lives and death of the people, I will only fight for death!" There is no need to doubt Han Xizai's determination. If he had made a bad career, he would have been cleared out of the court long ago.
But many things cannot be solved by integrity.
Ye Hua finally spoke, "Don't be impatient, your differences are obvious. Then I want you to think about whether there is any complementary point in industry and agriculture?"
"This... is very difficult." Guo Xingge said: "Industry needs labor and raw materials, but the steel, machine tools, steam engines, ships, etc. I produce, are not used in rural areas. Such expensive prices are not something farmers can afford. So I think that for a long time, industry needs agricultural nourishment, but cannot bring any changes to the countryside!"
"What else do industry do?" Han Xizai asked.
Brother Guo Xing said loudly: "Of course it is useful. Industry can change the Great Zhou! What's more, who knows how far the industry can develop? Maybe one day, industrial products will fill every people's homes, and everyone will enjoy the dividends of industrial development!"
Han Xizai doesn't believe it. He is not a three-year-old child.
"The King of Shang said that, I don't know which day, how can I believe me?"
The air stagnated again, very depressing.
Ye Hua suddenly smiled, "If I hadn't figured out before, how to let the workers and peasants communicate, but now I figured out, the solution is in front of me!"
"Oh? The plan will be released?" Everyone asked together.
Ye Hua smiled and said three words: "Cooperative!"
...
In the textbooks of the previous life, Ye Hua told many classic rules that he took for granted, but when Ye Hua really used these rules to explain the actual situation he encountered, he found that it was often specious.
Ye Hua tried hard to recall what the industrial revolution brought about?
In his memory, the first and second industrial revolutions only accelerated the global colonization process. In addition, sharp confrontations appeared in the country of various powers. On the one hand, large conglomerates that were rich enough to rival countries appeared. On the other hand, workers' lives were miserable and resistance came one after another. The struggle between the two sides never stopped, but was only sometimes eased and sometimes sharp.
The book says that the Industrial Revolution is progress, but why does this happen?
Ye Hua gradually figured out some things that appeared in the first industrial revolution or even the second industrial revolution could not be used by ordinary people. In other words, the two departments of industry and agriculture could not communicate, and industrial products could not be placed in the countryside... After a long period of time, blood transfusions from the countryside to the city made the farmers' lives even more miserable.
So what method should the great powers use to solve it?
It is very simple and crude, it is to immigrate to the colonies... kill tens of millions of Indian natives, and send bankrupt farmers, old nobles, and all the annoyances to the New World.
When farmers drop to a certain amount, the land is concentrated and the farm appears. A farmer cultivates hundreds of acres of land and has large estates... Only then can they consume expensive industrial products and enjoy the benefits of industrialization!
Ready-made experience is in front of you, will Ye Hua dare to leave?
Sorry, he dare not!
A big Zhou with millions of people is fine, and a big Zhou with tens of millions of people will only kill yourself if you play like this!
Obviously, Ye Hua has not lived enough.
We must find a way to communicate with industry and agriculture.
Ye Hua thought hard, and finally found that the answer lies in the cooperative!
With a steam engine, you will soon have a tractor, and you can also use a steam engine to extract groundwater and grind flour... Ordinary households can accumulate for several lifetimes, but they can't afford a steam tractor.
But if the cooperative buys these things, it will become natural.
Ye Hua smiled and pulled the two groups of people and said, "If your industrial products are to go to the countryside, they must go through cooperatives. In addition, cooperatives also need to provide education to the people and promote education vigorously... I think you can sit down and talk! How about finding the point of integration of interests?"
Guo Zongxun frowned, "Master means... the cooperative buys steam engines and trains workers?"
"That's right!" Ye Hua smiled and said, "Then buy grain raw materials in the city, provide generous positions, and protect the basic interests of workers!"
Brother Guo Xing's eyes also lit up, "It's amazing, if the cooperative develops education, it will save time in cultivating workers. Moreover, if workers have skills, of course they can get higher salaries!"
Guo Zongxun and Guo Xing Ge suddenly looked at each other and laughed, and the hands of the two young men were tightly held together!
The bad things finally came out, and the clouds shrouded above my head instantly dissipated.
Nothing can make people feel more pleasant than a refreshing hot pot.
I used to eat it to fill my stomach, but now I enjoy delicious food.
Everyone sat around. Ye Hua picked up the paper-like mutton, rinsed it a little, dipped it in the sauce, and put it in his mouth. The tender mutton melted on the tip of his tongue, and the rich aroma filled it. From the inside out, it was warm and comfortable. Li Si was moved and cried. He used his private money to bet, and he was smart and he made both ends together. When others got rich, he didn't get anything.
What he didn't expect was that the joke was actually spread to Zhe's ears. Not only was the private money swept away, but he also knelt on the washboard!
"You all have good things, why am I so unlucky!" Li Si sniffled and cried. That pitiful spirit, it was hard not to laugh.
Ye Hua stabbed him, and Li Si was overjoyed: "Junior brother, do you have a chance to get rich?"
Chapter completed!
