Chapter 2258: Can¡¯t treat foot pain

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Your Majesty, I believe that the national policy formulated by the imperial court is based on the long-term prosperity of the entire Ming Empire. How can we easily change the national policy just because of a crisis in the textile industry?"

    ¡°If crises occur in other industries in the future, can we use this to coerce the court to change policies and formulate systems that are beneficial to their industries?¡±

    As soon as Li Kun finished speaking, Zhong Fan immediately expressed his opposition.

    ¡°In terms of tariffs, our Ming Dynasty did not impose additional tariffs on overseas vassals, colonies, and vassal countries, and they also did not impose additional tariffs on our Ming Dynasty products.¡±

    "All the industrial products of our Ming Empire can be sold all over the world. If we look at the textile industry, then these vassals and colonies should also levy additional tariffs on the industrial products of our Ming Empire for the development of their own industries.  ?¡±

    ¡°At that time, other industries such as steel, cement, chemicals, automobiles, machinery, etc. will also be greatly affected, and overseas markets will become volatile.¡±

    "Tariffs are all relative. Our Ming Dynasty exempts overseas vassals and colonies from tariffs, and they also exempt us from tariffs. Generally speaking, it is our Ming Empire that benefits."

    ¡°Because we can obtain cheap raw materials and vast markets from overseas colonies, vassal states, and vassal states, the products of many of our industries can be dumped around the world.¡±

    ¡°The main problems that arise in the textile industry now are that there are too many factories and too much production capacity. The market simply does not need so many clothes and shoes.¡±

    "When some factories close down and the number of factories is reduced, the market will return to balance."

    "Even if we raise tariffs and restrict the entry of overseas textiles, our local textile factories in Daming will still face the same problems."

    "This is simply a way to treat the symptoms rather than the root cause. What's more, the people of the Ming Dynasty overseas are also the people of the emperor, and they are also our descendants of the Ming Dynasty. They have always been treated equally."

    Zhong Fan has indeed followed Liu Jin for many years. His research and understanding of economics are more profound than ordinary people, and he is better able to see the essence and root causes of crises.

    "That makes sense!"

    When the others heard this, they also nodded.

    The Ming Empire not only had the textile industry, but other industries were also very large, such as infrastructure industries based on steel and cement, machinery industries based on machinery, automobiles, and motorcycles, and electricity, telephones, telegraphs, electrical appliances, etc.  electrical industry, etc.

    ?? These industries are larger in scale, have higher output values, employ a large number of people, and have much higher average incomes than the textile industry. They also need to rely on this huge global market.

    "What Mr. Zhong said makes sense."

    ¡°The request of the United Textile Firm is extremely unreasonable.¡±

    ¡°The rest system is a very reasonable system, working eight hours a day and five days a week. This is based on strict calculations and considerations and is in line with people¡¯s living and working habits.¡±

    ¡°This system is also formulated for the health of our Ming people and to promote people¡¯s consumption.¡±

    "If workers are just locked up in the factory to work all day long without a break for the whole year, the workers will definitely not be able to bear it. And if they are locked up all the time, the workers will not have much consumption, and the entire market will further  shrink, all walks of life will be hugely affected.¡±

    ¡°By then, there will be no one shopping in shopping malls, no one watching football in stadiums, and no one watching movies in cinemas, which will affect all industries.¡±

    ¡°This is a very undesirable approach, and it is also a way of killing the goose that lays the egg.¡±

    Wang Shouren expressed his opinion after pondering for a while.

    ¡°These people from the Textile Chamber of Commerce are really short-sighted and have no vision at all.

    Why did Liu Jin formulate a resting system in the first place?

    It¡¯s not just to stimulate the consumer market. At the beginning, workers worked in factories all day long and the money they earned was not spent, so the market couldn¡¯t take off.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of the eight-hour working system, and you are also given two days off on weekends. Everyone has nothing to do but walk around and look around.

    ¡°I always buy clothes and shoes that I like. In the past, one pair was enough, but now I may even buy 10 pairs and feel they are too little.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????iff.

    As the market improves, the life of the company will naturally be easier, and the products produced will be better.If he went to court early every day, Zhu Houzhao would go crazy.

    ??There are two days of rest in a week, and a few days of rest on holidays. Isn¡¯t this a good idea? Everyone can have a rest, and everyone can go around to play, spend, and consume. What a good time.

    Of course, in the eyes of these capitalists, workers are just tools, not people. It doesn¡¯t matter whether they take a break or not. It is best if they can work like slaves overseas, all year round, and for more than ten hours a day.

    "Your Majesty, the textile industry is related to the employment of 20 million people, and we cannot ignore it."

    Li Kun thought for a while and continued.

    ¡°At that time, these textile factories and other things may be moved to overseas colonies and vassal states. Our Ming Dynasty will lose a lot of tax revenue, and the people will also lose a lot of jobs.¡±

    Hearing Li Kun¡¯s words, everyone suddenly frowned again, not knowing what to do.

    "It would be great if Liu Jin was here, he must have a solution."

    Zhu Houzhao immediately thought of Liu Jin.
