    "Next year, I will go to Shanghai to open this machine spinning factory!" This is Yang Shaowen's answer, and it is also the best answer.  Machinery and equipment, skilled workers, and local supporting facilities. If Shanghai cannot meet these conditions, there will be no other better place in the country.  He chose to open a textile factory in Shanghai because of the fact that Shanghai was a center for gathering information from the East and the West.  After staying in the countryside of Wujin for too long, he felt that there was a lack of information. It was extremely inconvenient to obtain some industry or technical information.  Others also nodded and admitted that Shanghai is a good choice and solves many problems in one fell swoop.  Yang Shaowen continued to explain the funding issues.  "As for investment funds, of course we don't have the strength to invest millions of taels like the official. As for the investment amount, it should be less. Other people's textile factories have tens of thousands of spindles, let's open a small factory with thousands of spindles.  , it¡¯s always possible. The key point is that we need to open up factories, gain experience, and train skilled workers, so that it will be much easier to run big factories in the future.¡± Thinking about it, this is indeed true, as long as we are not greedy.  Daqiu Quan runs a large factory like the government, and funds are not a big problem.  When everyone thought that the company would have its own machine-based textile factory in the future, they couldn't help but feel excited and envious.  Lu Tonghai was the only one who remained silent, as if his thoughts were not his own.  "Tong Hai, I went to Shanghai, and I will leave my hometown to you! A few days ago, your father and the Ming County Magistrate said that they would recommend me to be the president of the local cloth industry chamber of commerce. Considering that I may not have much time in the local area in the future, I decided to  I recommended you to represent the company as the president of the local cloth industry chamber of commerce.¡± Magistrate Min didn¡¯t have any objections to Yang Shaowen¡¯s proposal.  As long as the president of the local chamber of commerce represents the most powerful merchants, it can ensure that the chamber of commerce has sufficient influence.  Lu Guangsheng seemed to disagree, but in his heart he was definitely happy for his son to take over as president.  "Oh, I got it!" Lu Tonghai replied casually, seemingly indifferent to the honor of the president of the chamber of commerce.  "What are you thinking about, so enchanted?" Yang Shaowen asked.  "It's nothing. I just feel that if the company wants to set up a yarn mill, my husband Mao Yangxing will be even more unfriendly to us. I don't think this one-month credit period discount will last long." After that, Lu Tonghai said  He learned some news he heard in Shanghai.  "After the Treaty of Shimonoseki, foreigners gained the right to set up factories in China. Foreigners are also very greedy for the huge profits from machine yarn. At present, the American businessman Hongyuan Foreign Company, the German businessman Ruiji Foreign Company, and the British businessman Jardine Matheson  Foreign banks, and of course our old acquaintance Husband Mao Yang Company, are preparing to open a yarn factory in Shanghai, which will be put into operation next year. These four foreign banks are all big-money investments. Among them, Yihe invested 1.5 million taels, and the other three invested.  It¡¯s all around 1 million taels. Wow, it¡¯s really lively now!¡± Although he was shocked by the foreigners¡¯ generosity, Yang Shaowen was not overly worried.  He also said with some pride: "Since hubby Mao wants to build a yarn factory himself, that's even better. Let's just do it more grandly and go to hubby Mao Yang to purchase equipment in the future. Hubby Mao gives us a discount, and we still rely on it.  We have the strength in our hands. As long as we are a big customer of machine yarn, he will not dare to be too harsh on us." Zhang Yi also said proudly: "Our spinning factory may not be big, but it has one advantage compared to other factories.  The biggest advantage is that we have a large market for machine yarn. As long as our spinning mills can produce yarn, we will definitely not have to worry about sales." Everyone also burst into laughter.  Although the current machine yarn is not too worried about sales, who can say clearly about the changes in the market?  Maybe gauze is still more in demand than cloth today, but when you produce machine yarn, cloth will be in more demand than yarn again.  If a company has both organic yarn and cloth, it can maintain stability in both the yarn and cloth markets, and its ability to withstand market risks is greatly enhanced.  The matter of going to Shanghai to open a cotton mill was settled, and everyone then asked Yang Shaowen about his defense plan.  "The so-called defense is to start from the local yarn. Setting up a machine-made yarn factory is certainly the right way, but the investment required is not small, and we cannot make it on a large scale in the short term. With such a large market, we can only watch others.  I am really not willing to eat meat. My method is to tap the potential of Tuya." "How to tap it?" This is a question that everyone is concerned about. Tuya is too weak and it is not easy to do it without some extraordinary means.  Turn over.  "The first is the improvement of hand tools. Our machinery department has made a lot of achievements in this regard. In terms of efficiency improvement, it has made great progress compared with the previous homespun yarn production. Of course, as many people have worried  , these tools may not be accepted by ordinary farmers. "To this end, I have thought of a set of supporting measures. This supporting measure is to promote the production cooperative model in rural areas!" "Cooperatives?"    Everyone here is a little confused, no one knows what this is.  Yang Shaowen also knew that this was a new thing to them. He picked up a stack of information from the table and distributed it to these middle-level cadres for reference.  There is a lot of content about cooperatives in the information, and it will take a while for everyone to read it, so there is only a rustling sound of pages turning in the conference room.  After most of the people here had read it roughly, Yang Shaowen briefly summarized: "Originally, when the Machinery Department developed several good hand-woven equipment, I had the idea of ??opening a hand-woven workshop. But in the end  The results of various cost calculations revealed that the living environment of handicraft factories is still relatively fragile. Therefore, I wondered if we could combine the factory system with the family sideline business model. So I thought of the cooperative system!  It is a form of cooperative organization established by working people who voluntarily unite to carry out cooperative production and operation. It can maintain some of the advantages of family sideline business, such as low investment costs, low labor costs, flexible employment, and can take care of housework and agricultural production.  At the same time, it also has the characteristics of a manual workshop system. For example, it can organize farmers to carry out collaborative production to a certain extent. With the help of the cooperative platform, farmers can also afford some more expensive tools and equipment, and can also purchase and sell materials.  It has more advantages than a single person" "I didn't come up with the idea of ??a cooperative. It may be a new thing in our country, but as far as I know, this kind of organization already existed in Western countries.  In the British town of Rochdale, 28 unemployed textile workers at that time initiated and organized a 'Justice Pioneer Consumer Cooperative', which was very successful. It is said that the number of members has reached nearly 10,000, and the share capital has accumulated from dozens of pounds to  Hundreds of thousands of pounds. Therefore, cooperatives are not an idealistic fantasy, but have a practical basis from predecessors" Yang Shaowen began to introduce the advantages of cooperatives and the necessity of establishing cooperatives one by one, but in contrast, below  The cadres have more questions.  "This is not easy to promote, right? The articles of association alone are several pages long." "Yes, we will form a joint-stock company ourselves. I still can't say that I fully understand it. This cooperative looks simpler than building a joint-stock company.  How can the farmers understand? " "Even if we have worked hard to help the farmers build it, what is our company trying to do?" "I also feel that the company does not seem to get much benefit, at least not at all.  The profit will be higher than our current profit. This cooperative is not worth our efforts!¡± Yang Shaowen was prepared for everyone¡¯s questions and concerns in advance, and he patiently explained them to everyone one by one, which took a lot of time.  Half a day.  Everyone saw that the boss was very firm in promoting the cooperative, and coupled with his usual wisdom and foresight, they gradually accepted Yang Shaowen's "defensive" plan.
