Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Chapter 1113 Factory Turbulence, Tongbao Pavilion’s Counterattack

"We both make the same thing, can you tell me why it's so cheap here?"

Qin Ming spoke slowly, and at this time the fat man in front of him said with a smile:

"The main reason is that our costs are relatively low."

"Is it the cost of recruiting these workers?"

Qin Ming had already figured out why their cloth could be sold.

It's purely because their prices are relatively low, and their product quality and level are far behind Daqian.

But even so, a workshop like theirs can still be opened, and the reason is actually very simple.

That's because they have kept their labor costs very low.

As long as the price is low enough, there is no need to worry about no one buying it.

Just like when Qin Ming and Chu Ying came over just now, I heard them say that there were orders for 500 horses today alone.

That is why Qin Ming felt a little angry after seeing their industrial model.

After all, these technologies all came from Daqian, which was why Qin Ming promoted these technologies.

It's because we want them to improve their productivity.

As productivity increases, there will naturally be more goods on the market.

The price can also be relatively low, so that people can have clothes to wear.

But when they arrived in Shenmu Kingdom, they started vicious competition and even kept lowering prices in the market of Shenmu Kingdom just to grab more orders.

This is also something that the court here has never cared about.

Because for Hua Yunhong, no matter whether the price is high or low, the tax they pay needs to reach a certain amount.

As long as he reaches the amount he needs.

He won't care about it anymore.

It was precisely because of the other party's hands-off approach that many of the bosses in their market did not follow the rules and finally began to exploit these ordinary people.

The influx of technology did not improve the lives of the lower-class people in the Shenmu Kingdom. They still had to work extremely hard to earn a few copper coins.

Sometimes the requirements can be very high.

"You're not here to investigate and write a newspaper, are you? Get out of here!"

Seeing that the things Qin Ming asked him were becoming more and more strange, the boss here soon discovered that something was wrong.

There are many newspapers here, and newspapers often report various things.

These unscrupulous factories will be exposed, and many people will criticize them.

After experiencing one or two such incidents, the boss here also understood.

I can't bear the attention of others like this often.

That's why they would run into such a chaotic small workshop to do work secretly.

Today, Qin Ming and Chu Ying came to see it, and it seemed that they were not dressed like ordinary people.

It is very likely that he is the investigator arranged by Tongbao Pavilion.

Once this guy gets hold of something, things could get really troublesome.

In order to avoid this situation, he directly spoke up and prepared to drive Qin Ming and the others away.

As he spoke, several guards nearby came up.

They all took out their weapons and prepared to attack Qin Ming and Chu Ying.

Looking at their actions, Qin Ming frowned slightly.

He didn't want to cause trouble at first, and seemed a little sensitive to the other party. At this time, Qin Ming also understood how to accurately capture their pain points.

"You seem to be afraid of newspapers, aren't you?"

"What does it matter if it's in the newspaper? If you dare to write about this in the newspaper, no matter where you are in the world, I will kill you when I have the chance. Just wait and see."

The other party threatened Qin Ming in a stern tone, but his threat did not have any strength, because the person standing in front of him was the emperor of Daqian.

Of course, Qin Ming would not tell him this.

He just waved to the side, and several guards immediately rushed over from behind.

Qin Ming's guards seemed to be even stronger, and their every move and gesture resembled that of an army.

At this time, the boss was also a little scared.

Qin Ming saw that he didn't make any unnecessary movements.

He took Chu Ying away, and Chu Ying was still a little angry when he left.

Because he didn't expect to be treated like this today.

"Your Majesty, why didn't you teach them a lesson just now?"

"Actually, it's not his fault. It can only be said that Hua Yunhong's arrangements were not good enough. There is something wrong with their system that caused this kind of trouble."

Qin Ming did not want to take action against these business owners when he passed by, because only taking action against them or solving the small problems here would only be a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution.

So after saying this, he still hoped that Chu Ying could resolve this matter through the newspaper.

After hearing what Qin Ming said, Chu Ying quickly guessed what he was thinking.

Then he said to Qin Ming:

"Your Majesty, do you hope to use the newspapers to find an opportunity to publicize this matter?"

"Yes, they have their pros and cons, but it's not very serious after all. So if your newspaper has space, you can write about this matter."

"No problem. By the way, Your Majesty, Tongbao Pavilion has been targeted by Hua Yunhong these days, and the people below have sent us some information. Should we fight back?"

Chu Ying was reading at this time and talking to Qin Ming about the counterattack.

Some time ago, Qin Ming asked him to start collecting silver from all over the place.

It was under this circumstance that silver from all over the country quickly gathered towards the south.

This irritated Hua Yunhong's sensitive nerves, and he was worried that Chu Ying was going to do something big.

So they arranged people even more frantically, and launched sieges based on the reports from various places.

Not only did they check their accounts, they even asked them to pay more taxes.

It is claimed that there are special controls on them, but not many people would be willing to accept such news.

So after talking about this kind of problem, no matter who it is, they are worried that they will get into trouble later.

"Don't worry, his people should find the silver in your hands soon. If you are willing to go to the Western Regions by then, he will not make any more moves."

After hearing what Qin Ming said, Chu Ying immediately understood what he meant and nodded quickly.

That night, he and Qin Ming's orders were delivered directly to Sun Jinshan. After receiving the order, Sun Jinshan burst into laughter and worked all night to plan the route for the secret guards.

And sent away a batch of silver.

However, when they sent out this batch of silver, they did not really hide their whereabouts.

Instead, he concealed the news and leaked it out.

As for Hua Yunhong, since the telegraph was widely used, he quickly received news from the south.
