Chapter 13 This is Productivity
they mobilized so many people to wait outside the village, it's not hard to guess.""They want to bully the villagers with underhanded tactics, pushing me to my limit and forcing me to act. Then they'..."Help Wang Gui up," Yang Lin said.
"Recently, I happened to need to make some things. Uncle Wang, if you're willing, you can come here to help me. Ten cash a day." Yang Lin said.
"What Ten cash a day"
Wang Gui jumped in fright and hurriedly waved his hand.
"No, no, Yang Lin, from now on, your business is my Wang Gui's business. Helping you is like helping myself, so I wouldn't take any money! Rest assured, if anything happens, just call Uncle Wang, and your Uncle Wang will be there at your beck and call!"
Wang Gui was full of passion. At this moment, no matter what Yang Lin asked him to do, he would do it without hesitation.
Yet, Yang Lin shook his head. "Uncle Wang, my business can't be finished in a day or two. I have to pay the money. If you don't accept it, I'll have to find someone else."
Wang quickly became flustered: "I'll accept it, I'll accept it! But you're giving me too much! Two coins a day is more than enough for Guiying and me."
Ten copper coins That's way too much!
Usually, he earns about 70 to 80 wen a month.
Yang Lin was going to give him ten wen, which was equivalent to a fourfold increase in income! So much money, he felt uneasy holding it.
"Uncle Wang, please don't refuse. If you want to help me, just listen to me. Time is tight, 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, but he didn't expect it to be needed so soon.
Wang Gui took it and was stunned.
"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 still couldn't figure out what it was.
Yang Lin smiled and said, "This explanation is a bit complicated. You'll know once you see it. Uncle Wang, just tell me, can you make it"
"Yes!"
Wang Gui nodded without hesitation.
Although he had never seen the things on the blueprints, the structure was not complicated and it wasn't difficult to make.
"Within two days, can you" Yang Lin pursued.
"Two days…"
Wang Gui hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth: "No problem! Although the time is tight, it's no problem to sleep a little less."
With Wang Gui's assurance, Yang Lin finally felt relieved.
If Wang Gui can't do it, he will have to change the plan.
"Uncle Wang, if we find a few more people to help, would it be faster" Yang Lin asked.
"Wang Gui smiled bitterly: 'That's natural, this thing isn't difficult, it's just too time-consuming. If someone helped, of course it would be much faster.'"
"Alright, Uncle Wang, today's silver will be considered payment for this custom work. You don't need to return it. Please find a few more people to help, and the sooner it's finished, the better."
Wang Gui hurriedly nodded: "Uncle, could you tell me, what is this for"
He lived half his life, but he had never seen the thing Yang Lin was going to build.
Yang Lin smiled and said, “This is advanced productivity!”
When Yang Lin returned home, all the women were frowning and looking distressed.
Seeing Yang Lin come back, the second sister hurriedly said, "Just now we carefully calculated that no matter what, it's impossible to finish four hundred and thirty blocks of tofu within three days!"
The women nodded in agreement, their eyes on Yang Lin filled with complex emotions.
Although they didn't speak, they all blamed Yang Lin in their hearts.
If they don't take this order and honestly continue making tofu, although they won't make a lot of money, if they accumulate it gradually, in less than a year and a half, they could also become well-off.
Now, if an order cannot be completed, you will face double the penalty!
Just after paying back 1,300 wen in debt, I have to pay another 13,000 wen
How can they not worry
Yang Lin laughed and said, "Despair 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 about two days at most."
That is to say, we are not going to make all this tofu in three days.
"But only one day, he made four thousand three hundred blocks of tofu!"
After Yang Lin finished speaking, all the women were stunned.
Originally, they were supposed to make four thousand three hundred dollars in three days. They already felt that this was an impossible task.
But now, Yang Lin is actually saying one day How is this possible!
Si Mei said, "I think my husband should have a way."
Li Yuyao sneered: "Method Absolutely impossible! Because this is beyond human capabilities now! Don't forget, on the first day we made 600 pieces of tofu. Six people took turns grinding it from morning to afternoon without stopping!"
"
How long would it take to grind 4,300 blocks of tofu
"
Li Yuchun's words were spoken with great conviction.
Even those who still had a glimmer of hope for Yang Lin just moments ago are now utterly hopeless.
Yes, this is simply beyond human capability.
However, Yang Lin simply smiled and said, "Human power It is just the smallest force in nature. If humans can't do it, there are other forces that can."
There are many ways to do it. Even if we just rely on manpower, we can hire a few more people.
All the women were taken aback, their faces displaying strange expressions.
How come they didn't think of this simple solution before
"So, is your husband planning to hire someone to grind the grain" Si Meizi asked.
Yang Lin smiled and said, "Of course, I need to hire people, but hiring someone to grind the grain isn't a long-term solution. I have a more efficient way."
"Aren't you worried about not finishing it Then let's get started now!"
Yang Lin immediately made arrangements.
"Elder sister, second sister, third sister, you go shopping for beans, as many as possible."
"Si Mei, you have a way with words. Go ask the neighbors for three iron pots and four water jars. Make sure they arrive before tomorrow night."
"Fifth Sister, Sixth Sister, you two follow Fourth Sister to deliver the gift. Fourth Sister has borrowed a water tank and an iron pot, so you two should take two jin of rice and half a jin of pork."
Both of them were surprised.
Two catties of rice and one catty of meat, together they cost fifty or sixty wen!
What about us
Yang Lin hadn't made any arrangements for her, Xiao Jiu couldn't wait any longer and eagerly 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 behind to watch the house."
After making arrangements, everyone set off on their own.
Yang Lin also took out three little girls.
Li Yuchun felt a bit downcast.
Yang Lin arranged everything in an orderly fashion, with everyone having their assigned tasks. Only she had nothing to do.
Once upon a time, it was only natural to do nothing.
She felt lonely now, watching everyone busy while she did nothing. She felt out of place in this home...
As soon as Yang Lin and his companions stepped out the door, they saw a group of people running towards them anxiously from afar.
All those who came running were villagers, both male and female, young and old. But without exception, their faces bore excitement and tension.
In the distance, more and more people came, and soon a dozen or so gathered, running desperately towards here!
Among the crowd, Yang Lin saw Wang Gui with a face full of anxiety and guilt, also running towards this side in a hurry...his information from"Yang Lin looked at Zi Yi.Purple robes had only just left for half a day, yet she already knew what was happening thousands of miles away. Even the fact that the governor of Pingyu...
