Looking at the large amount of calculation results, Zhao Hao couldn't help but frowned slightly.
This gap is a bit too big.
Of course, the main reason is that both the papermaking workshop and the soap workshop have to continuously supply goods to the Kingdom of Shu.
Especially in the early stages, all goods were used to pay off debts.
Not a penny will be brought back.
This is very hurtful.
"Do we need to find new ways to make money?"
He actually rejected this.
Because that would be very difficult to do.
Moreover, the cycle will be very long.
It is not necessarily possible to receive a large amount of money immediately.
"If fine salt can be used, then there is no problem at all. We can get a lot of money in an instant."
"Unfortunately, the fine salt was sealed up by Her Majesty the Queen, who wanted to use it as a strategic item in the future."
"As for the textile workshop, I only provided the blueprints."
"It's not good to get involved again."
"Besides, even if it is done, there is still the same problem as before, that is, it is impossible to gather a large amount of money in a short period of time."
"What should I do..."
For a moment, Zhao Hao couldn't think of a good solution and kept scratching his head.
Just then, there was a knock on the door from outside.
"Master, lunch is ready."
"Shall I bring it up to you now?"
Zhao Hao said without even raising his head: "Get lost, don't bother me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the clock in the corner began to ring.
It's twelve o'clock.
When Zhao Hao heard the bell, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Then, he turned his head sharply and looked at the clock.
"Yeah, how could I have forgotten it?"
"Once this thing is made, a lot of money will come!"
Of course, it is very difficult to produce a large number of this clock.
Otherwise, he wouldn't just rub a few tables with his hands.
The main problem is that the reeds inside are quite difficult to use.
However, as long as a batch of iron with similar specifications can be refined, the problem can be solved more easily.
If we sell a table clock at the price of a hundred strings of cash and make hundreds or thousands of them, we can basically solve the pension problem.
Moreover, the initial investment does not require much money, only iron and high-quality wood must be invested.
If we can also run it as a workshop, we will make a lot of money later on.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hao nodded slightly, picked up the brush and wrote the word "clock" on the paper.
Compared to other projects, this one makes money very quickly.
After finishing writing, Zhao Hao put down his brush, changed his clothes, and asked Wu Song to drive the carriage to the palace.
In the Pepper Room, Jiang Wan'er was having a meal. When she heard Zhao Hao asking for a meeting, she put down her chopsticks, picked up the handkerchief beside her and wiped her mouth gently, then waved slightly to the maid beside her and left.
Soon, Zhao Hao stepped in and after greeting, he quickly said, "Your Majesty, I am here to apologize."
Although his visit to Shu Kingdom has ended, he still holds his position.
So he surrendered.
As soon as she saw Zhao Hao coming up to apologize, Jiang Wan'er immediately knew what he was going to say.
However, he still pretended not to know: "What's wrong? Why are you asking for forgiveness?"
Zhao Hao said, "Your Majesty, when I was in Tongshan City, I saw that more than 10,000 people in the city died or were injured because they helped the government troops defend the city. It was extremely miserable."
"so……"
Jiang Wan'er blinked her beautiful eyes and said calmly, "So, you took it upon yourself to tell them to help them ask the court for compensation?"
Zhao Hao nodded: "Yes, it was indeed my own decision to summon all the families of the dead and publicly announce that the court would provide them with compensation."
"I also said..."
Jiang Wan'er whispered, "What else did you say?"
Zhao Hao said: "I also said that if the court does not agree, I will use my own money to provide them with relief..."
Jiang Wan'er couldn't help but smile softly when she heard this, and said, "This is a good thing!"
Zhao Hao was stunned for a moment and looked at Jiang Wan'er with wide eyes.
Jiang Wan'er said, "Why, didn't you hear clearly? I said this is a good thing!"
Zhao Hao suddenly became excited: "I would like to thank Your Majesty for your grace on behalf of those people."
Jiang Wan'er immediately waved her hands and said, "Why are you thanking me? Aren't you going to pay for it yourself?"
"If the people want to thank someone, they should thank you, Lord Zhao!"
The corner of Zhao Hao's mouth twitched: "..."
Your Majesty, we can't play like this.
Jiang Wan'er took a deep breath and said, "In fact, Qingniao has already reported this matter to me."
"From the perspective of the imperial court, we should provide pensions to those civilians, the same treatment as the soldiers who died in the army."
“Although it has never happened before, it should be done.”
"They shed blood for Dagan, so of course the court has to take care of it."
"But, what is the current situation at the court? I believe that even if I don't tell you, you are very clear about it."
"What do you want me to give as compensation?"
"Unless we wait until this war is over and the court has money, we can do this later."
"But I don't know how long it will take, maybe two years, maybe three years."
"By then, there will be many places to spend the money, and this subsidy will definitely be postponed."
"So, Zhao Hao, if you can come up with the money, help the court do this."
"I will remember your great contribution."
"In addition, no matter how much you spent, the court will compensate you every penny when it has money."
"What do you think?"
Zhao Hao said, "Your Majesty, I know that the court cannot afford the money, so I have planned to pay for it myself."
"However, no matter what, what I did was wrong."
