Ming Dynasty: I, Emperor Chongzhen, swear not to go to Meishan

Zhu Youjian wanted to get a high-power long-range sight for the sniper. He first had to get glass, produce various glass utensils and sell them for money, then get a military telescope, and finally a high-power long-range sight.

He did not remember the specific time when telescopes were introduced to China, but he roughly remembered that before the Chongzhen Dynasty, a missionary named Tang Ruowang brought telescopes. Only people in the Ming Dynasty knew about the existence of such a magical thing.

What Zhu Youjian has to do is to produce the Ming version of the monocular telescope and distribute it to officers at all levels of the army. This is limited to the Royal First Regiment and the future Wolf Barracks and Sichuan Army Camp. Other local troops may only have senior generals. .

It's not that he is stingy, but that this thing is currently very rare and is a military secret. Whether the Ming army is fighting against the Qing army externally or internally to suppress Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, they are a standard transportation captain who has repeatedly failed in battles.

The Qing army, Li Zicheng, and Zhang Xianzhong armed themselves with the weapons and equipment captured by the Ming army. The more they fought, the stronger they became, while the Ming army became weaker and weaker. In the end, they all perished. Do you think this rare treasure can be supplied in large quantities?

Zhu Youjian gave the order, and the eunuchs quickly built a laboratory and a small glass production factory for him. This is the benefit of being an emperor. He needs a place, people, and materials, but there is a lack of materials. money.

Under his command, a large group of low-level eunuchs were so busy that they were sweating profusely and covered in dirt. However, no one complained. They all grinned and looked happy.

Even if Zhu Youjian is a shady boss, he knows that if he wants his employees to work hard and improve efficiency, he must treat them well and provide good benefits.

These little eunuchs at the lowest level work very hard, so they have three meals a day of one meat, one vegetarian and one soup. Really large pieces of fat meat, which will make your mouth water and feel so good.

There is also enough oil and water for vegetables and enough white rice to keep you full, and you are also paid ten or twenty copper coins a day. This kind of treatment has already made these low-level eunuchs extremely happy.

Stimulated by the good welfare, the little eunuchs worked very hard, and the efficiency was naturally reflected. Glassware was produced one by one. Except for a few that were left in the palace to play with the queen and concubines, and were awarded to officials, the rest were taken. Go out and sell.

There is no way, I am really poor and crazy.

Liuli had been introduced to the Chinese Empire during the Western Han Dynasty. However, due to the long distance, inconvenient transportation, and high cost, it had always been a rare treasure in the Chinese Empire, and the price was ridiculously expensive.

For Zhu Youjian, the more expensive the glass, the better, because his Royal Glass Factory has mass-produced a large number of glassware and other objects, and they were snapped up by wealthy wealthy people as soon as they were put on the market.

Zhu Youjian had to lament that the rich people of the Ming Dynasty were really rich, but when he came to borrow money to defend the imperial capital, they all rolled on the floor and cried that they were poor. In the end, they were threatened by Li Zicheng with a knife and handed over obediently.

Five words - so damn cheap.

In order to keep the price of glass high, Zhu Youjian followed the high-end hunger marketing route. He only produced a few hundred pieces of each item and naturally sold them at dozens or hundreds of times the price.

Things are more valuable when they are rare.

Especially when the four animal-shaped glazed products of small, medium, large and extra large are on the market, a large glazed dog can be sold for an astonishing price of about four to five thousand taels of silver, and an extra-large glazed lion or tiger can even be sold for 20 taels. Exaggerated price of tens of thousands.

Too expensive?

Look, looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, there are only a hundred of them. The local tycoons are breaking their heads and looting them. Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy them.

Such a precious treasure is displayed at the door of the house. It can not only act as a magical beast in the house, but also very powerful and awesome. Just looking at the envious looks from passers-by, even the servants who guard the door feel that they are superior to others. .

Even if you don't use such a precious good thing, it is definitely a great gift. When the big baby appears, it will definitely shock everyone. It's OK to ask someone to do something.

The local tycoons desperately competed to buy various glassware items that were on the market from time to time, showing off in various ways, while Zhu Youjian hid in Chen Yuanyuan's bed, grinning while counting money, and comfortably enjoying Chen Yuanyuan's massage.

There was no way, there was too much money, and he couldn't help but laugh. This was the magic of high technology.
