et twice.But even so, Yang Lin said that he could have the confidence to rival wealthy families in a short time, Li Yiy Yao still didn't believe it.Although they faced only local officials and gentry,...After helping Wang Gui up, Yang Lin spoke.
"Recently, I just happened to need to build something. Uncle Wang, if you're willing, you can come over here and help me. I'll pay you ten wen a day." Yang Lin said.
"What Ten cash per day"
Wang Gui jumped in fright and quickly waved his hands.
"No, no, Yang Lin. From now on, your affairs are my Wang Gui's affairs. I'm helping you; how could I possibly take money Rest assured, if anything happens, just call Uncle Wang, and Uncle Wang will be there at your beck and call!"
Wang Gui was full of blood and passion. At this moment, he would do anything Yang Lin asked him to do without hesitation.
"Yang Lin shook his head. "Uncle Wang, my business can't be finished in a day or two. I have to give you the money. If you don't accept it, I'll have to find someone else."
Wang Gu quickly became agitated: “I’ll accept it, I’ll accept it, but why are you giving so much! Two coins a day is enough for Guiying and me to live on.”
Ten coins That's far too much!
Usually, he makes about seventy or eighty wen a month.
Yang Lin was going to give him ten wen, which was equivalent to a fourfold increase in his income! With so much money, he felt uneasy holding it.
Uncle Wang, please don't refuse. If you want to help me, just do everything I say. Time is of the essence, let's start tonight! Here are the blueprints, take a look and see if you can make it.
Yang Lin took out a drawing from his sleeve and handed it to Wang Gui.
This was something he had prepared long ago, just didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.
Wang Gui took it and was taken aback.
"What is this"
The drawing on the paper looked like a spinning wheel, but it wasn't. He looked at it from all sides, for a long time, but he couldn't figure out what it was.
Yang Lin smiled and said: "This explanation is a bit troublesome, you'll know after seeing it. Just tell me, Uncle Wang, can you make it"
"Yes!"
Wang Gui nodded without hesitation.
Although he had never seen the things on the drawings, the structure wasn't complicated and it wouldn't be difficult to make.
"Within two days, can you" Yang Lin pressed.
"Two days..."
Wang Gui hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said: "No problem! Although the time is tight, I can still manage to sleep less."
With Wang Gui's guarantee, Yang Lin finally felt relieved.
If Wang Gui can't do it, he will have to change his plan.
"Uncle Wang, if we find a few more people to help, would it go faster" Yang Lin followed up.
"That's natural," Wang Gui smiled wryly, "This isn't difficult, it just takes too much time. If someone helped, of course it would be much faster."
"Alright then, Uncle Wang, today's silver will be considered payment for this commission. Don't worry about returning it. Find a few more people to help, and the sooner it's finished, the better."
"Uncle, could you tell me what this is for" Wang Gui nodded hastily.
He had lived half his life, yet he had never seen anything like what Yang Lin was building.
Yang Lin smiled and said, "This is advanced productivity!"
When Yang Lin got home, all the women were frowning and looking worried.
When Yang Lin returned, the second sister hurriedly said, "We've just carefully calculated that no matter what, it is impossible to finish making 4300 pieces of tofu within three days!"
The women nodded in agreement, their eyes on Yang Lin filled with complex emotions.
Although they didn't speak, in their hearts, they all blamed Yang Lin.
If they don't take this order, honestly continue to make tofu, although they won't earn a lot of money, but slowly accumulate, in less than a year and a half, they can also become well-off.
Now, if an order can't be completed, you'll face double the penalty!
Just after paying off a debt of 1,300 wen, I have to pay another 13,000 wen
How could they not worry
Yang Lin laughed and said, "Are you desperate now There's something you don't know yet." The women looked at him in surprise.
“Tofu is a food that is not easy to preserve. Although the weather isn't hot yet, it can only be preserved for two days at most.”
That is to say, we're not going to make all this tofu in three days.
"But only one day, to make 430 pieces of tofu!"
After Yang Lin finished speaking, all the women were dumbfounded.
Originally, they were supposed to make four thousand three hundred dollars in three days. They already thought this was an impossible task.
But now Yang Lin is saying one day That's impossible!
Si Mei said, "I think my husband should have a way, right"
Li Yuyao sneered: "A way Absolutely impossible! Because this is beyond human capability! Don't forget, on the first day we made six hundred tofu, six people took turns grinding, from morning to afternoon, without stopping!"
Four hundred and thirty blocks of tofu, how long would it take to grind them
Li Yuyao's words were spoken with great conviction.
Those who still had a glimmer of hope for Yang Lin just moments ago are now utterly despairing.
Yes, this is definitely beyond human capabilities.
However, Yang Lin just smiled and said: "Human power It is the smallest force in nature. If human power cannot do it, there are other forces that can."
There are many ways to do it. Even if we only rely on manpower, we can just hire a few more people.
All the women were taken aback, their faces showing surprise and confusion.
How could they not have thought of such a simple solution before
"So, is your husband planning to hire someone to grind the grain" Si Mei asked.
Yang Lin smiled, "Of course, I need to hire people. But hiring someone to grind the mill isn't a long-term solution. I have a more labor-saving way."
"Aren't you worried about not finishing Then let's get started now!"
Yang Lin immediately made arrangements.
"Big sister, second sister, third sister, you go shopping for beans, the more the better."
"Si Mei, you're good with words. Go ask the neighbors for three iron pots and four water tanks. Make sure they're here before tomorrow night."
"Five Sister, Six Sister, you two follow Four Sister to deliver the gifts. Four Sister borrowed a water tank and an iron pot, so you two take two kilograms of rice and half a kilogram of pork."
Both were startled.
Two catties of rice and one catty of meat, altogether it would cost about fifty to sixty wen!
What about us
Yang Lin didn't make arrangements for her, Xiao Jiu couldn't wait any longer and hurriedly asked.
Yang Lin smiled and said, "You guys wait for me here a moment, I'll take you to a place!"
"My lady, you stay here to watch the house."
After making arrangements, everyone went their separate ways.
Yang Lin also took three little girls out the door.
Li Yuxiang was a little disappointed.
Yang Lin had everything arranged in perfect order, everyone had something to do, but she didn't have to do anything.
It was only natural for one to do nothing before.
Now, watching everyone bustling about while she does nothing, she feels lonely. She feels out of place in this home...
As soon as Yang Lin and his companions stepped out of the door, they saw a group of people running anxiously towards them from afar.
Those who came running were villagers, both men and women, old and young. But without exception, their faces were etched with excitement and tension.
In the distance, more and more people were coming, and soon there were over ten of them, running frantically towards here!
In the crowd, Yang Lin saw Wang Gui who had a face full of anxiety and guilt, also running towards this side in a hurry...hort but busy life. It was also in my dreams that I learned some new things," Yang Lin said this.You need to come up with a reasonable explanation for this yourself, otherwise as you create more thing...
