Chapter 91: Papermaking and Ice-Making Techniques

don't have time to make your two hundred blocks of tofu.Yang Lin was smiling."Huh"Zhao Ji was surprised.In fact, after taking the first batch of tofu, those big families in the county town did not pla...It's already the middle of the month.

As night deepened, a full moon hung high in the sky.

Inside the Yang family home, everyone sat together, watching Xiao Jiu calculate.

Though the Dragon Boat Festival has just passed, the weather has already become scorching hot. Despite wearing light and airy clothing, women can be seen fanning themselves constantly, perspiring profusely.

"Aha!"

Yesterday, expenditures were 8 taels and 6 coins of silver, while income was 36 taels and 2 coins of silver.

Now our family still has a total of 10,368 taels of silver! Not counting the cents!

Han Mengzhu excitedly said.

All the other women had strange expressions on their faces.

Big sister said, "These days I've spent quite a lot, but how come the silver keeps dwindling"

"Yes, sir. Every time my husband spends silver, I feel a pang in my heart," the second sister nodded. "But the money seems to keep growing instead of shrinking. It's truly strange."

Also lost in thought was Liao Hongying.

Although Yang Lin's industries are numerous now, not only does he have a bodyguard unit, but he has also set up a transportation team, built houses and roads, and is involved in brickmaking, metallurgy, logging, and quarrying...

But the only industry that makes money is still this tofu shop!

The tofu shop's business has only increased from its original offerings of medicinal waters, tofu, and starch sheets to include tofu skin, bean curd sticks, soybean sauce, and soy sauce.

But it's still necessary to support so many other workshops! As a result, the silver just keeps disappearing faster and faster!

Yang Lin smiled and said, "Wanting to spend money isn't easy If I really wanted to splurge, all the money we have at home probably wouldn't be enough!"

But all the other women rolled their eyes.

More than ten thousand taels of silver is not enough to spend

Bragging!

"Really, believe me, I could spend half of it tomorrow" Yang Lin said with a smile.

"Letter!"

"Don't squander your fortune."

"We all believe it!"

"My husband is the best."

The women quickly spoke up, they were truly frightened.

Everyone laugh.

Li Yuyao suddenly said, "Husband, you are so capable. Is there any way to make the weather cooler"

Upon hearing this question, all the women were taken aback.

Si Mei said, "Sister, don't deceive your husband. Changing the weather is not something humans can do."

Han Mengzhu also nodded: "That's right, brother isn't a god, how could he possibly do it."

Yang Lin thought for a moment: "Cooler... well, now that you mention it, I actually have an idea."

What？

All the women were taken aback.

Including Li Yuyao, everyone's eyes were fixed on Yang Lin in disbelief.

"Is your husband really resourceful"

"This can't be possible, can it"

"Heavens, it's so hot! What can your husband possibly do about it Could he still be able to conjure rain"

Yang Lin smiled and said, "Everyone, come outside with me."

Having come outside, Yang Lin found a large pot used for boiling soy milk.

"Older sister, younger sister, you two go to the well and draw two buckets of water."

"Ziyi, Qingyi, you two go to the storeroom and get two baskets of saltpeter."

"Third Sister, go find three iron basins, in small, medium, and large sizes."

"Si Mei, you go find two cotton quilts."

All the women were stunned.

Well water Iron basin Cotton quilt Nitrate

Can these things be connected

They really couldn't figure out what Yang Lin wanted these things for. Soon, everything Yang Lin needed was returned to him.

Yang Lin first poured half a pot of cold water into the big pot, then placed the largest iron basin in the water and poured in more cold water; then he put the medium-sized iron basin into the large iron basin, and poured in more cold water; then he put the small iron basin into the medium-sized iron basin, and poured in more cold water.

Finally, put both baskets of saltpeter into the pot and cover the outside of the large iron basin with a quilt.

"Done!"

Yang Lin chuckled.

"Is that all"

Li Yuxiang glared.

All the women were becoming increasingly confused, they just couldn't understand what Yang Lin was doing.

Just when everyone was baffled, Ziyi suddenly pointed at the small iron basin in the pot with surprise: "Look!"

All the women looked and were immediately astonished.

The water in the small iron basin was freezing at a visible speed!

In a few short breaths, the iron basin was filled with ice!

But after a short while, the water in the iron basin completely froze into a solid block of ice!

Yang Lin poured the ice out of the basin and filled it with water again, then put it back into the pot.

Soon, the second pot of ice was ready.

In the scorching summer, one pot after another of ice appeared before our eyes. The women were already dumbfounded.

"Wu Mei, go and crush these ice cubes. Put the ice chips in bowls, one bowl for each person."

"Liu Mei, go prepare some red sugar water and pour it into the bowls."

"Little Seven and Little Eight, you two go wash some fruit, then mash the fruit up and put it in the bowl."

It didn't take long, and bowl after bowl of refreshing and icy fruit smoothies were ready.

Sipping on this sweet and refreshing fruit smoothie, it's simply heavenly!

And the pot was changed twice with saltpeter, a total of eighteen basins of ice!

Place these ice cubes around the house, and soon a refreshing coolness will spread throughout.

"It's so cool!"

Little Seven and Little Eight, all the young ones, were excitedly jumping on their beds, thrilled with joy.

Besides Empress Li Yuyao and Yang Lin, who else would experience such coolness in summer

"My husband, you are truly amazing!"

Si Mei excitedly kissed Yang Lin on the face.

"Even ice can be made, that's amazing!" Liao Hongying also sincerely picked up her thumb.

Li Yuxiang is still in shock.

She was just casually talking, she never expected that Yang Lin would actually be able to do it!

"Alright, everyone, get some rest. We have a big meeting tomorrow. Our village is about to enter the 2.0 era!"

Tomorrow, at least half of the silver must be spent, and this is not something Yang Lin said casually.

He is not a miser, but understands the laws of economic development better.

To keep growing, you have to be willing to invest.

Whether it's upgrading industries or investing in research and development, we should not be stingy with money.

Yang Lin is very clear that only advanced technology can lead the world and change the future!

The next afternoon, by the river outside the village, tables and chairs were already set up. In big pots, delicious pork stewed fragrantly.

This is already the fourth pork feast in the mountain village this month.

But the villagers were still incredibly excited, even a little nervous.

Because Yang Lin announced two days ago that this pork banquet was not only a feast, but also a large meeting where he would announce some good news!

As everyone knows, Yang Lin's announcements always bring tangible changes to their lives. So, for the matter he was about to announce at the pig banquet this time, everyone was filled with anticipation.

To Yang Lin's surprise, before the pork was even fully cooked and he could announce his good news, good fortune found him first!

Just having run out from the design studio, Du Jing found Yang Lin excitedly and pulled him aside.

"Success!"

"Lin Di, we did it!"

Du Jing was full of excitement, shaking Yang Lin's shoulder and giving him a tight hug.

Yang Lin's eyes widened: "Papermaking, it worked"d even if the Zhou family were powerful enough to prevent others from buying your tofu, they couldn't stop others from making and selling their own."That being the case, the Zhou family ended up maste...
