Three Kingdoms: Liu Daer Was Forced Out of the Mountain at the Beginning

In the study, after Bai Feng told Cao Jie about his latest plan, Cao Jie smiled very happily.

As early as the establishment of the soap workshop, Bai Feng mentioned to Cao Jie that he wanted soap to enter thousands of households.

Through Cao Jie's unremitting efforts, soap has now become an indispensable daily necessities for the Wei gentry.

But there is still a long way to go before it can reach thousands of households.

Now the linkage model proposed by Bai Feng between the steam engine workshop and the soap workshop will truly allow soap to enter thousands of households and become a reality in the near future.

"As for the simultaneous construction of the soap workshop and the steam engine workshop, I'll leave it to you, Jie'er."

Then Bai Feng smiled at Cao Jie.

In the construction of the steam engine workshop, Bai Feng will send two craftsmen from the R\u0026D center to Cao Jie.

"good!"

When Cao Jie heard this, he nodded in agreement.

Whether it is a soap workshop or a steam engine workshop, they will have a major impact on the lives of the people of Wei in the future.

Cao Jie is also happy to see such good changes, and he will not refuse if he can promote it himself.

Then Bai Feng began to write a letter to Cao Cao.

Mainly, Cao Cao is needed for tax support.

In exchange, Bai Feng directly gave part of the shares to Cao Cao.

After writing the letter, Bai Feng sent someone directly to Yecheng.

Before receiving Cao Cao's reply, Bai Feng and Cao Jie arranged manpower to prepare for the subsequent construction of the steam engine workshop and soap workshop.

Yecheng, Imperial Palace.

After Cao Cao read Bai Feng's letter, he praised Bai Feng's arrangement repeatedly.

At this time, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and Jia Xu were also in the palace.

"After Hanzhong Hou used this trick, both the nobles in Youzhou and the nobles from other states would be tempted to invest in the steam engine workshop, hahaha!"

Cao Cao, who originally planned to mediate and balance the interests between the nobles and Bai Feng, was happy to stand aside after seeing that Bai Feng had a better solution.

Especially when Cao Cao was also the beneficiary of this incident, he was even more happy and prepared to appreciate what would happen next.

Xun Yu, Jia Xu and Cheng Yu were all looking forward to it after reading Bai Feng's letter.

Xun Yu and others were very clear about the impact of the emergence of the steam engine and the subsequent steam loom on the cloth industry.

As the number of steam looms in Yecheng increased, the price of cloth also continued to fall.

After all, labor costs have been reduced too much, and the production efficiency of cloth has been greatly improved.

This is definitely a good thing for the people of Yecheng.

Xun Yu, Jia Xu and Cheng Yu now make new clothes for the servants of the house every year.

Moreover, it is now difficult to see ragged people on the streets of Yecheng.

"Your Majesty, the significance of the construction of this steam engine workshop is much greater than that of the soap workshop."

“What we care about for people’s livelihood is nothing more than food, clothing, housing and transportation.”

"The emergence of steam looms has allowed the common people to have new clothes to wear. It is really a great thing!"

Xun Yu said to Cao Cao with great emotion.

He still remembered what the people were like in the years when there were endless wars.

If no one had seen it with their own eyes, no one would believe that the people of Yecheng were once numb, disheveled, and in ragged clothes.

After the Wei Dynasty unified the world, more than ten years later, life has undergone earth-shaking changes.

It's like a new batch of people.

Cheng Yu and Jia Xu couldn't help but nod when they heard this.

The emergence of steam looms not only brought tangible benefits to the people, but also allowed cloth merchants in Yecheng and surrounding areas to make a lot of money.

Following this, Yecheng's tax revenue has increased significantly this year.

More prosperous business is a good thing for the court.

And with the high-quality grain seeds that Bai Feng once provided, there is no need to worry too much about the food issue.

"Of the four aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation, Hanzhong Hou has now solved two. When steam trains really run across the Wei Dynasty, the only problem left is housing, hahaha!"

Then Cheng Yu also said something with a smile.

Last month, Bai Feng wrote to Cao Pi, saying that he would send him a steam train as a thank you gift. It is now the New Year, and in more than a month, the steam train will be built and transported to Yecheng.

Hearing Cheng Yu mention the steam train, Cao Cao also looked forward to the day when the steam train would be delivered to Yecheng.

Because the winter weather was too cold and the land froze, Cao Cao's previous plan to build a railway around the palace had not yet started.

"What Zhongde said is true. Hanzhong Hou did make great efforts to improve the people's livelihood."

"The Hanzhong Hou is indeed a little displeased with what the nobles of Youzhou have done this time."

"The steam engine workshop and the soap workshop were jointly built to deal with the nobles in Youzhou."

Cao Cao nodded and said.

In Cao Cao's view, after Bai Feng used the steam engine as a killer weapon, the Youzhou nobles should not have the ability to take the initiative again this time.

"Your Majesty, the fact that this steam engine can be turned into a steam train in the hands of Hanzhong Hou shows that it still has great potential that can be explored."

Then Jia Xu said to Cao Cao.

Whether it is a steam loom or a steam engine train, the efficiency improvements brought about by it are obvious to all.

Therefore, the imperial court also had plans to conduct in-depth research on steam engines.

"Well, it is estimated that in another year, Ma Jun and Geng Zhuzhu will be able to return from Hanzhong."

"By then, whether it is a steam engine or a steam train, the imperial court will also be able to manufacture it!"

Cao Cao heard this and said to Jia Xu, feeling full of confidence.

When all counties and counties in the Wei Dynasty can be built and connected by railways, the entire imperial court's ability to control local areas will be improved again.

This level of improvement is unmatched by all the previous ones combined.

Cao Cao then directly agreed to Bai Feng's request. Not only did he choose to reduce the tax for the steam workshop for one year, he also wrote back to Bai Feng saying that if craftsmen were needed, he would be the supervisor and provide a certain level of support.

After Bai Feng received Cao Cao's reply, he sent it directly to Cao Jie for review.

At the same time, the manpower preparations on the Hanzhong side are basically completed.

"Jie'er, next we have to prepare to appreciate the performance of the Youzhou nobles, as well as the Liangzhou and Yongzhou nobles."

Bai Feng happily said to Cao Jie.

Under the temptation of investing in a steam engine workshop, coupled with a one-year tax exemption on the sale of steam engines, Bai Feng believed that no nobleman could resist this temptation.

Because as long as you successfully invest in the steam engine workshop, it means that you will definitely make money in the next year!

Cao Jie naturally understood what Bai Feng meant when he said this to him.

"Then please husband, please enjoy it!"
