Chapter 93: The Paper Mill

, painting... I... I can also spin yarn, and I can endure hardship!"Li Yuxiang calmly combed her hair, revealing a captivating beauty.She knows what beauty can bring to a woman who is powerless to pro...As soon as those words were spoken, the entire audience was once again stunned.

Gao Da Zhuang was also scared, his mouth wide open in disbelief as he stared at Yang Lin.

"Host, this... this is too much!"

What does one thousand taels of silver mean Gao Da Zhuang didn't know, anyway, it was an astronomical figure to him.

On the women's side, upon hearing Yang Lin mention the figure of one thousand taels, they all couldn't help but gasp in astonishment.

They had expected Yang Lin to spend generously, but they hadn't anticipated him coming in with a thousand taels right off the bat!

The newly arrived Ziyī and Qingyī were even more surprised.

Mingming, though just a country boy from the mountains, spends money more lavishly than they did when they were in the palace!

"Really, there are too many! Master Dong, expanding the kiln won't cost much at all, not even a thousand taels of silver!"

Gao Da Zhuang is still declining.

Yang Lin smiled and said, “It's not possible to spend all the flowers at once. We can keep them and enjoy them slowly.”

Besides, one thousand taels of silver is not a lot.

"Look, the construction team hired a hundred new people, so at least they need a hundred tools. Buying tools costs money, and expanding the kilns also costs money, not to mention everyone's wages!"

“From today onwards, all workshops will operate autonomously. This means that I will be investing in each workshop, and the heads of these workshops will have the freedom to manage this funding. They can use it for normal production, purchasing materials, paying wages, etc., and handle everything themselves.”

At this, everyone looked at each other in astonishment.

Especially those who were appointed as managers were dumbfounded.

According to Yang Lin, this means their status has been elevated too much! The power they hold in their hands has also increased!

Yang Lin's plan had been made without consulting anyone else. At this moment, when Li Yuyao and the others heard it, they couldn't help but be surprised.

However, they all knew Yang Lin's abilities, so although they didn't understand why he had arranged things this way, they didn't object. They only planned to find Yang Lin after the meal and figure out why.

Gao Da Zhuang still wanted to decline, but Yang Lin had already patted him on the shoulder.

"My decision is final. In the future, our industries will only grow. If I were to control everything, it would be impossible. So, I'm giving you all autonomy over your respective industries. I will only oversee the larger direction."

"For independent operation, it is essential to keep accurate records. I review the accounts monthly, and each workshop submits their profits once a month. The amount submitted can be determined autonomously by the workshop managers based on their workshop's situation."

After Gao Da Zhuang stepped down, the managers of other workshops also took turns to take the stage and show their faces.

The captain of the Guard Corps, Zhong Tao, the captain of the Procurement and Transportation Squad, Wang Gui, Du Jing, manager of the Design Workshop, Zhao Shunzi, manager of the Smelting Workshop, Wang Mu Shan, captain of the Mining Squad...

Everyone was making their first public speech, and once on stage, none of them spoke any better than the tall and strong one.

In the end, Yang Lin announced his investment in various industries, once again shocking everyone.

Those who are good at calculation have already figured out that Yang Lin invested a total of six thousand five hundred taels of silver in various workshops today!

After talking about each workshop, Yang Lin announced another big event.

Open a shop!

“I’m preparing to open the first shop in town and currently need a shopkeeper, two clerks. The shopkeeper's daily wage is twenty wen, and the clerk's daily wage is eight wen.”

"I haven't found anyone yet. If you have experience in business and can read, please come forward and recommend yourself."

Upon finishing his words, Yang Lin immediately realized that there was no one named "Mao Sui" in this world, so the idiom "Mao Sui Zì Jiàn" (literally, Mao Sui recommending himself) did not exist.

"So he explained, 'Whoever thinks they're good enough can come find me after dinner.'"

After that was said, the banquet hall erupted in a cacophony of noise again.

Twenty pieces of text a day, a month could be six hundred pieces!

Many people were moved.

But unfortunately, not many people have experience in business, and even fewer are literate.

Few people in the entire village would meet both requirements. So, although everyone was envious of this income of twenty texts, they also understood that while the money was a lot, none of them were capable of earning it.

Besides, a paper mill will be established tomorrow, recruiting thirty people initially. The wages will be the same as in other workshops.

"Those who are willing to go to the paper mill, please register after dinner."

Everyone was surprised again.

Paper mill

Everyone knows that paper is commonplace, yet Yang Lin was going to make it That's something no one could have guessed.

From making tofu to papermaking, that's quite a range!

"Last but not least, and the good news I want to share with you all today."

"This year's Summer Tax is almost over, so I've decided to cover everyone's Summer Tax this year!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire audience was stunned.

Throughout history, summer taxes, autumn taxes, head taxes, land taxes... these have all been mountains weighing down on them.

Now Yang Lin is even helping them file their taxes, which has touched everyone deeply!

"Host, you don't have to pay. Now we all have money and can afford it!"

"Yes, the master has already been kind enough to us. This tax cannot be made you pay any further."

"That's right, that's right. We have food and drink now, we often get to enjoy a big meat feast, and there's work to do, money to be made. We can't be greedy and keep taking advantage of you."

As Yang Lin's prestige rises, more and more people now address him as "Dongjia" instead of his given name.

Yang Lin smiled: "As I said, once I make a decision, it won't change. About everyone paying taxes, that's settled."

Not only this year's summer tax, but also if I have money in the fall, I will pay the autumn tax for everyone as well!

"I understand everyone's kindness, Yang Lin does! And this is also a little thought from Yang Lin!"

"When the bandits first came, everyone stood together. Facing those fierce bandits, no one betrayed me, Yang Lin. I, Yang Lin, will never forget this!"

So, from now on, as long as I, Yang Lin, have one mouthful of food, I will absolutely never let my fellow villagers suffer from poverty and hunger again!

As soon as Yang Lin said this, the audience burst into applause.

"Good!!"

Many elderly people, even cried.

They had lived most of their lives and had never seen such a grand occasion in the village of Koushan. They were both excited and increasingly optimistic about the future of these young people...

The next morning, Yang Lin brought the thirty new recruits and all the women to Du Jing's place.

Until now, many people are still unsure if they really want to make paper.

When it comes to paper, the first thing that comes to mind is expensive!

Besides that, I know nothing.

Even the women didn't believe it, that it could really make different kinds of paper.

When Du Jing proudly held a large stack of freshly made paper from yesterday in front of everyone, everyone was astonished.

Picking one up, it's incredibly thin!

"My goodness, is this really paper"

How was this done

"That's amazing!"

Many women spoke up.

Of all the things mentioned, Li Yuyao's surprise was the most shocking!re won't be a next time.Even though there were no orders, Yang Lin pretended to be very busy when the order came looking for him. That's confidence!Although he was a science and engineering graduate i...
