Chapter 349 The Huge Difference in Productivity
Grayson had seen this scene countless times.
But when one of the already smelly ponds suddenly starts to become clear, it will definitely trigger a huge reaction.
And if Li Ke does this, the first people to be affected will be the merchants in the cloth market.
Grayson had learned about the prices of goods in this world before, so he knew very well what terrible changes Li Ke's textile machine would cause.
Although woolen cloth is very expensive, today's clothes are not cheap either.
Although the fabrics produced by textile machines are not as good as the handmade products made by masters, they are stable, efficient, and they look like fine fabrics at first glance.
Although it can't be said to be top-notch, it is still at the upper-middle level in this era.
A pair of wool socks in this world requires a worker three days' wages to afford.
Ten meters of cloth takes about ten days to weave, and the thread required for weaving also requires close to ten days of work.
Li Ke's machine had only been working for less than ten minutes. It had already woven nearly one meter of cloth with the textile machine linked behind it.
It seems slow, but it’s actually incredibly fast, and only one person is needed for the whole journey!
Yes, Li Ke's Jenny Textile Machine was improved. The original Jenny Textile Machine could only spin yarn and the like, but after Walder's modification, his machine directly turned into a spinning and weaving machine. Cloth is integrated. Just put in the processed wool and start to step on the pedal, and you can continuously weave cloth!
There is no way, magic is easy to use. Some inconspicuous magics and enchantments are simply unparalleled in production.
For example, a simple cleaning enchantment can directly reduce a large amount of water use and pollution. If placed in a modern factory, it would be equivalent to using three kilowatt hours of electricity per day to replace hundreds of tons of cleaning fluid, and reduce drying and other processes. link.
A small thing like flipping a product can be done with a magic rune, and it doesn't even require enchantment.
In other words, as long as there are enough raw materials and the machine is not broken, a machine can produce six meters of woolen cloth in an hour, and this machine can work in three shifts.
It takes ten days to produce 240 meters of woolen cloth, requiring up to three people, which is eighty times more efficient than traditional weaving! And you only need to pay three people the salary of a normal weaver.
The most terrifying thing is that this machine is just a test product for him and the dragon man named Walder! There's no engine or anything like that yet!
Judging from his master's intentions, he planned to build a machine that could produce thousands of meters of cloth a day!
This means that Li Ke can completely monopolize the woolen cloth of this continent with just a few thousand people!
He will sell high-quality woolen cloth on a large scale, and in this world, as long as he lowers the price slightly, he can sell it in large quantities and monopolize the woolen cloth market in other countries!
Because you can’t beat the cost! The wages of one person are worth the wages of eighty of you! He can definitely set the price of wool cloth at a price that is only slightly more expensive than wool and start a price war with you!
The original self-employed people will be directly driven out of this industry! Anyone who makes money from woolen cloth and a range of cloth businesses will go straight out of business! Many farmers will be left with only mutton and income from farming.
In addition, Li Ke only collects 30% of the tax, allowing a large amount of grain to flow into the market, and farmers' grain income will be reduced again.
Then, in order to maintain the operation of the factory, Li Ke must collect wool on a large scale, and then he must spend a lot of money to collect wool from the princes and nobles. In order to have more wool to sell, these people will inevitably increase sheep breeding, and Peasants on their own territory are prohibited from leaving their territory.
They think that the price of food is so cheap that they let farmers raise sheep, but they keep most of the income for themselves. Those farmers will definitely not be able to survive. In other words -
Riots, uprisings, and rebellions of all kinds.
Then the whole world will be in flames of war.
In this process, Li Ke only used cheap woolen cloth to sell. Some textile households may hate him, but most people who enjoy the cheap cloth will definitely be grateful to him, and they may even think that Li Ke is a good person.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, my master is really evil, I learned it."
The Dread Lord felt that he had learned something. They had never used this method before. They used magic to control people's hearts crudely, or to start rumors. They had never seen Li Ke do anything like this.
He felt that he had seen a new method for the cholera world, which was quite effective and could be replicated on a large scale across the universe.
Just a small machine is enough to cause chaos in the entire world and trigger a war in the entire world.
But he was a little regretful. If Li Ke could have come two years earlier, he would have convinced Li Ke to let him work with the legion first. In this way, in exchange for the legion's support, Lord Kil'jaeden would have paid more attention to him. Him, and allowing him to choose to occupy part of the cake in this world when the world is destroyed.
No matter what you do after that, you will be able to do it with ease.
"But unfortunately, this method does not last long, because Lord Archimonde will not wait too long. It is a pity. The role of the Scourge is to let the lich gain huge energy, and then he can preside over the ceremony and summon Archimonde. Lord De’s true form will not wait too long.”
The Dread Lord is not optimistic about this world. Although he is also a spy, his level is obviously not high enough. So he simply believed that the world of Azeroth was no different from other worlds, and would be destroyed in front of the Legion.
When Lord Archimonde takes action and launches a sneak attack, this world has no ability to resist.
However, you can also design it a little with your master to make their ideas come to fruition. After all, the plan will not start normally until next year.
Moreover, Li Ke's help in accelerating the corruption in Lordaeron is also a contribution to the plan. When the time comes, he will also be able to explain to Lord Kil'jaeden.
But the only problem is the energy issue. If there is a powerful enough engine and power system, then the owner can further save labor.
so……
"Well, it looks like a little urging is necessary."
The Fear Lord looked at Li Ke's focused expression and knew what he should do at this time.
He smiled, leaving a clone here, and then moved quickly to another place.
Those who have not responded to Li Ke until now are demonic places.
Dreadlord, get to work.
