bear it and begged for mercy repeatedly.All the villagers were dumbfounded.They didn't expect the guard team to actually fight back.To my surprise, the arrogant young master Liu, who usually flaunts...Yang Lin said, "Everyone, please don't worry. Listen to me. You all should know that my family is making tofu recently, so I want to hire a few workers. Five cash per day, and everyone who has borrowed money can work to repay the debt."

"If you need to borrow money, come here."

At Yang Lin's command, Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba brought over a table. Xiao Jiu took out an account book and a large bag of copper coins, ready to record the accounts.

Seeing this, the villagers were completely shocked.

Yang Lin, are you serious

Can work offset debt

And only five cents a day

You know, Liu the landlord's head worker only gets eighty wen a month!

In just half a month working for Yang Lin, he earned as much as Liu the landowner's workers did in a whole month.

In an instant, all the villagers rushed over.

"I borrow, I borrow!"

"I borrowed two hundred wen."

"I borrowed three hundred wen!"

"Really no interest"

"I borrowed one hundred and fifty wen..."

After you pay off your debts, will you still be able to work here

The villagers were chattering away, crowding together in a throng.

Yang Lin maintained order while answering the villagers' questions.

"Rest assured, I have a lot of work to do. As long as I want to, after paying off my debts, I can still stay and work here."

And working here, it's only ten hours a day... Oh, I mean five hours!

And after working for three months, the pay doubles!

Once Yang Lin said this, the villagers became even more excited.

At the Liu landowner's house, one had to work seven hours a day. As soon as the sun rose, they started working and kept going until sunset. Even during short breaks, they were scolded or even beaten by the manager.

While Yang Lin only needed five hours This isn't working, it's simply enjoying oneself!

The person who borrowed the money rushed to thank Yang Lin, overwhelmed with excitement.

And Yang Lin also directly announced that he would go to Liu's house to return the money and immediately start working! Although it had been more than half a day, today was still counted as five cents!

The villagers were even more excited.

After a while, everyone got what they wished for. Xiao Jiu's ledger was also filled with a page of entries.

There were a total of twenty-three people, and a total of five thousand eight hundred wen was lent out.

Xiaojiu closed the account book and said,

Hearing this number, Wang Gui, who had already been feeling guilty beside himself, completely lost his courage to look up.

Yang Lin is to blame for lending out so much money. It's all his fault.

However, he was also curious where Yang Lin got so much money from

"Very good."

Yang Lin smiled and nodded.

Looking back at Wang Gui, who still looked guilty, Yang Lin said: "Uncle Wang, you don't have to blame yourself. It's not your fault. We are all neighbors and fellow villagers. If someone is in trouble, I can't just stand by."

He not only did not blame Wang Gui, but even wanted to thank him.

The labor force in this era is incredibly cheap!

Yang Lin had long considered hiring someone to do the work, but since everyone was a neighbor and friend, he felt uncomfortable asking.

And today, the villagers came to borrow money, and he just happened to seize the opportunity to get his hiring done.

At this moment, Liu Youcai's house was filled with villagers who had come to repay their debts. Liu Youcai and his son were a little dumbfounded facing this scene.

What's the situation

Where did these peasants get their money

They are all ready and have taken the land deeds from the villagers.

How did they suddenly have money to pay off their debts

Not only that, they also noticed that these villagers who had paid off their debts all had excited expressions on their faces, as if something good was waiting for them.

Even though they hate with gritted teeth, there's nothing they can do.

There's no wall that can completely keep out the wind. With little effort, Liu's family learned that it was Yang Lin who had lent money to the villagers, and they were even more furious.

"Dad, Yang Lin is deliberately trying to make trouble for us! Should I bring some people over to teach him a lesson" Liu Liang gritted his teeth.

Liu Youcai frowned and said, "Humph! A poor student can't make much of a splash. I'm just curious where he got so much money"

"Oh, right, where did Yang Lin get so much money" Liu Liang only just realized.

"Could it be that he made his fortune by selling tofu"

Liu Liang immediately shook his head: “No way! I heard that the cost of making tofu is two copper coins, he wouldn’t make any profit selling it.”

Liu Youcai nodded: "Yang Lin, that guy, always talks about sage books and wouldn't lie. This matter is really strange! Son, go find out what's going on."

"Don't worry, Dad! If there are any money-making schemes, I'll definitely pry them out of his mouth!" Liu Liang gritted his teeth fiercely.

Soon, the villagers who had finished repaying their debts returned excitedly, found Yang Lin, and were ready to work.

Yang Lin didn't hesitate and got right to work.

"Uncle Wang, you take three people with you to help out; the rest of you go up the mountain to chop wood and split firewood."

Is that it

When the villagers heard Yang Lin's assigned task, they were all incredulous.

This is a job that only costs five cents a day, and it's so easy

After the villagers left, Yang Lin also took Xiao Qi, Xiao Ba, and Xiao Jiu out of the village.

Koushan Village is surrounded by mountains on two sides. Behind it is a bare, rocky mountain, while in front of it lies a lush primeval forest. Several mountain springs flow down from the mountains, converging into a small river that runs along the village and flows towards the distance.

The small river is only over a hundred meters away from the village. Villagers use it to wash clothes, draw water, and irrigate their crops. Everyone in this mountainous village knows this river well.

Yang Lin brought three little girls to the riverbank, asking Xiaoqi and Xiaoba to find some sticks and branches. They walked around, measuring things casually, and after a while, they went back.

Until they returned to the village, Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba still felt confused and clueless about why Yang Lin had taken them on such a wild goose chase for so long. What exactly was he trying to do

The next afternoon, the things given to Wang Gui for making were finished.

Yang Lin led the crowd, moving this large object from Wang Gui's house to the riverbank.

Hearing the commotion, many people came to see what was going on. When they saw what was being carried in, it was something no one had ever seen before, and the villagers became curious.

Li Yuyao frowned and stood with the other women, watching Yang Lin direct the village men as they struggled to erect this massive wooden structure by the river. A series of paddle-like blades, arranged in a circle, began to rotate with the flow of water...

Li Yuyao suddenly realized.

"My God!"

"He actually..."

>Thinking about her own guess, Li Yuyao was shocked.

As expected, Yang Lin soon had someone bring over a grinding wheel. He carefully positioned it and connected this slightly modified grinding wheel to the massive water wheel...

A miracle happened!

"Oh oh oh, it turned, the grinding disc turned!"

"My gosh, why is the grinder moving on its own"

"Wow, he's still so fast!"

Wang Gui was completely dumbfounded. He rubbed his eyes hard, staring in disbelief at the scene before him. He couldn't believe that such a magical thing was actually created by himselfskin! I guarantee that even in death, I will absolutely not reveal a single word! If you have the guts, then chop it up, kill me! You won't be able to find out anything!"Yang Lin gritted his teeth and...
