Chapter 82: Too Much Money to Hold
e now all in Yanshan Village, doing business with Yang Lin!Looking back, they made a fortune.And what about yourselfSuch a good opportunity, and he couldn't earn any money for himself. Not only would...These letters are all correspondence between Black Tiger, Zhou Kun, Zhao Deyi, and even County Magistrate Wu Yong over the past few years!
Through examination of these emails, one can see that they intentionally or unintentionally reveal the time, location, and benefits Black Tiger offered them over the past few years.
Don't think about it, these letters must have been deliberately left behind by Heihǔ to keep those aristocratic old masters in check!
Perhaps the Zhou and Zhao families tolerate the Black Wind Mountain bandits' lawless behavior because they receive favors from Heihu and are also threatened by him! Thus, they collude with each other and become accomplices in crime.
When Yang Lin saw these letters, he immediately thought of their use.
With these letters, the plan he had dared to conceive could be put into action with greater ease!
“With so much gold and silver, we can’t even fit it all here,” Xiao Jiu Han Mengzhu said with a frown.
All the women were taken aback and couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time.
The house was small to begin with, and with ten people living in it, it was quite cramped. They had already made a good amount of money, which was enough to fill the cupboards. Now, with all this gold and silver, antiques and jade, there was simply no room for it!
Perhaps this is the trouble with happiness: having too much money to spend!
All the women looked at Yang Lin.
Yang Lin thought for a moment: "Let's put it in the warehouse."
"Warehouse"
All the women were astonished and looked at Yang Lin in bewilderment.
A warehouse is usually used to store food, farming tools, chaff, seeds, and some miscellaneous items.
Yang Lin is actually using a warehouse to store gold and silver
Yang Lin shrugged. “Although this silver looks like a lot, once it's poured out of the box and piled in the corner, it doesn't seem like much.”
"But our house is simply too full, we can't possibly pile it up in the yard, can we So we have to store it in the warehouse."
The silver was so plentiful that it could only be stored in the warehouse… The faces of the women became even more strange.
However, since Yang Lin said so, that settled it.
Immediately, everyone carried the boxes to the warehouse and dumped the gold and silver inside randomly into the innermost corner. Then they threw the boxes outside.
Looking at the silver piling higher and higher on the ground, the women couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.
Back then, when they first arrived at this house, they were still worried about over a thousand copper coins!
However, in just one month, they were already able to use the warehouse to store silver!
Liu Meimei sighed, "So much silver, I'm afraid it would take a lifetime to spend it all!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately thought of something.
Then, all the women turned their heads and looked at Yang Lin.
"Ahem."
Yang Lin coughed lightly and said sheepishly, "Actually, we can still spend it all. Not to mention anything else, just our new house, after the second phase of construction starts, I'm afraid this money won't even be enough."
All the women were astonished.
You know, including the silver from Landlord Liu's house and the money collected for building the house, there is now over ten thousand taels of silver in the warehouse alone!
And with so much silver, wouldn't it be enough to build a house
How big of a house is he going to build!
Only Li Yuyao knows, building a house These two words are too humble!
According to Yang Lin's previous description, the so-called second phase project was simply a prototype of building a city!
The next day, Kaoshan Village was bustling with activity once again.
The road repair team, tofu shop, smelting workshop, construction team, lumberjack team, stone quarry team, kiln team... all back to work!
At the same time, Yang Lin announced that from now on, all villagers who work for him will have their wages increased by one cent!
A few days ago, it was just announced that wages had increased, from five wen to six wen.
It hasn't been days since the wage increase, and everyone is naturally thrilled. The previous gloom and pessimism have vanished. In addition, Yang Lin announced that recruitment will continue!
Guards, lumberjacks, kiln workers, smelters... each group is increased by ten people.
The construction team, increase by twenty people!
The Mining Team and the Stone-Quarrying Team merged to form the Mining Team, which was then increased by ten people and sent to Blackwind Mountain to collect saltpeter.
Finally, Yang Lin announced the bonus issued to soldiers during the defense of Koushan Village.
Consolation money of one hundred taels for the deceased!
The seriously injured will have their medical expenses covered, and a reward of ten taels of silver will be given!
All the people of the road construction team who were forced by bandits that day, each person is awarded one hundred wen!
The Guard will be rewarded with 200 wen each!
In addition, every member of the guard who participated in the attack on Black Wind Mountain will be awarded one thousand wen!
Every villager who went to the county town yesterday can get twenty wen each!
After the announcement of this series of bonuses, the villagers once again erupted in excitement.
Every person in Koushan Village can see that their future will inevitably be bright!
But for Yang Lin, this time it seemed like he had made a lot of money, but in reality, all the expenses amounted to no more than three hundred taels of silver, not even a fraction of what he earned from this trip to Blackwind Mountain.
But after this time, Koushan Village will surely be more united than ever before, and its cohesion will rise to a new level!
After a busy day, Yang Lin prepared to further expand Du Jing's design workshop and research gunpowder. Qin Shuang, a member of the guard team, came over to him.
Qin Shuang was in her early twenties, very quick-witted, so this time when the bodyguard squad expanded, Yang Lin made Qin Shuang a small captain, responsible for patrols.
"Brother Lin, a girl has come to our village!"
Qin Shuang came over, and whispered mysteriously.
"Miss Is there a problem" Yang Lin asked.
Now, in the village of Keishan, there are many merchants coming from the town and county. If Qin Shuang were just an ordinary girl, she wouldn't report to herself specially.
"Hmm hmm! There's a problem! A big problem!" Qin Shuang mysteriously leaned into Yang Lin's ear and whispered, "That girl is about twenty years old, dressed in rags like a refugee, but her temperament is... very peculiar. Most importantly, she came to our village looking for a woman!"
"A woman"
Yang Lin was puzzled again.
"Mmm! That's right, she wants to find a woman!" Qin Shuang hurriedly nodded. "According to her description of the person she's looking for, I feel like...she might be looking for my sister-in-law!"
Saying that, Qin Shuang looked towards Yang Lin.
Yang Lin was stunned again: "Which sister-in-law"
"Of course, it's your elder sister-in-law!" Qin Shuang said with a mischievous grin.
Li Yao
Yang Lin's heart also moved.
He could surmise that Li Yuyáo had a mysterious past, perhaps with stories she held close. Even the name "Li Yáo" might not be her true one.
And the person looking for her, might be her family.
But it's also possible, she's her enemy!
"Where is he" Yang Lin asked.
Qin Shuang hurriedly said, “I don’t know who she is. I didn’t dare to tell her your sister-in-law’s news. I just arranged for her to stay at the village head’s house first and then rushed over here to find you.”
Yang Lin nodded in approval and said, "Well done. Let's go take a look now!"
Following Qin Shuang, we arrived at Zhao Fugu's house. As soon as we stepped inside, we saw the girl Qin Shuang had mentioned.
Around twenty years old, with a pretty appearance, dressed in ragged clothes.
However, the moment the girl raised her head, Yang Lin saw a pair of sharp and piercing eyes!
Like an eagle searching for prey!e price wasn't high.Many have one or two silver coins, while few only have a few hundred copper coins.Working here at Yang Lin's place, he earns five cash per day. He won't need a year to pay it all...
