Chapter 144 Paper Mills

Fan Hong looked at Liu Fang and the others who were about to move in front of him, and he retreated in his heart. He felt his legs were shaking, and he was really afraid that they would rush up and kill him.

These yamen servants are too much, even holding knives, we are unarmed people.

Before coming here, everyone always felt that there were thousands of knots in their hearts, and if they didn't say it, they felt that the whole society was sorry for them, and they felt very aggrieved.

However, after being asked N sentences in a row by Li Mo, he couldn't answer any of them.

Suddenly, it dawned on me that there didn't seem to be so many problems, and I felt that I was really making trouble for no reason.

In the past few days, everyone is not doing any work, what is it called to discuss together every day, forget it, let's go home and have breakfast first, I got up too early, and I am so hungry.

So, the first person left, followed by the second person, and the third person.

In the end, only those talented scholars were left, and the talented scholars looked at each other in blank dismay, what should we do?
There was a faint cold light in Li Moqing's eyes, her red lips were slightly pursed, and her bare hands were raised, only to hear a "pop", and the petition that took a lot of effort from these talented scholars was thrown on the ground by Li Mo.

Fan Hong seemed to hear that his heart was bleeding. This stupid official, who was so perfunctory, turned a big problem into a small one. How did this official work.

Also, before coming here, didn't everyone just want to ask for an explanation, why didn't they even hum, during the whole process, only one person was speaking, and everyone else pretended to be dumb.

Just leave like that, and if something like this happens again in the future, don't try to be brave, and go to whoever you like, these people are really unreliable.

But I am not the opponent of the yamen servant, what can I do, I will go with everyone.

But leaving like this is like dying before leaving the school. I feel so embarrassed and lose face. I secretly winked at everyone: withdraw.

A faint sneer flashed across Li Mo's handsome face: "I'll give you a warning, use your brains before doing things in the future, don't disregard right from wrong, and read so many years of sage books in vain."

A farce started in a hurry and ended hastily, no, it should be said that it was over before it even started, and the waves couldn't stir up a single one.

If such a big event happened in the Yamen, everyone in Songjiang County must know about the Big Trumpet Gate.

By the time the people in the village received the news, it was already afternoon.

For the villagers, this is a big deal.

As a result, the villagers were no longer in a hurry for the autumn harvest. Instead, they gathered in the sun-drying fields of the villages, chattering non-stop, and some had a bad temper: "Village chief, tell me, should we copy the guy? Give the dog a good meal?"

The county magistrate is such a good person, who has done so many good deeds, but to be dismissed like this is really tolerable, what can't be tolerated, they have to break their dog legs, wolf-hearted things.

The village chief: "Everyone, please be safe and don't be impatient. We haven't received a notice from the county government. Wouldn't it be bad to rush over like this? Besides, there are so many people in the government office."

"Village chief, you are so timid and afraid of getting into trouble, it's a shame that the county magistrate treats you so well."

"Village chief, if you don't go, we will go by ourselves, everyone hurry up and copy the guy."

"Copy guy!"

"The village chief is a coward."

So most of the young and middle-aged people in each village were dispatched. On the way, they met villagers from other villages holding hoes and sticks. After talking with each other, they found out that they were all going to support the county magistrate, so let's go together in groups.

The team is getting bigger and bigger.

When everyone arrived at the yamen, it was already pitch-black, which startled the passers-by, my dear, what's going on here, do you want others to come over to watch the excitement.

Li Mo, Song Min and others were not there, and there were very few people in the yamen.

Liu Li hurriedly reported to the master: "Master, it's not good. A large group of villagers came outside in a mighty manner. They all have weapons in their hands. They are not good."

The master's heart skipped a beat, what happened again, people in the city made a fuss in the morning, and people in the village came to make a fuss in the afternoon, everyone wanted to do something, everyone was fed up, and had nothing to do in their free time.

The leaders of each village are the village chiefs, poor old village chiefs, in order to hurry, this old bone is about to fall apart.

I wanted to ride an ox cart, but everyone said that riding an ox cart was slow and lacking momentum, so I followed everyone on my two legs and almost collapsed.

The master cautiously came to the gate of the yamen, there were many people outside the gate, but he didn't hear anyone clamoring for the adults to come out, so he probably didn't come to make trouble.

Village head Ye looked into the yamen: "Master, where are those bastards in the city?"

The master was startled: "What?"

Village head Wang: "We are here to support the adults, so that the adults don't have to be afraid. We are in the fight, and she just needs to watch."

Village Chief Zhang: "Yes, there is no need for adults to do anything. All the men in our Zhangjia Village are here, and they are at their disposal. Even if they are beaten and disabled, they don't need adults to take responsibility."

The master breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, these people didn't come to cause trouble, so it's not in vain for you to pay so much for them.

I don't know how to express all the emotions.

The master bowed deeply to the villagers: "Thank you everyone, I came all the way from home, my lord has already gone out, after she comes back, I will definitely convey everyone's thoughts.

Don't worry, everyone, the matter has been perfectly resolved. There are adults here, so you don't have to worry about it, just put your heart in your stomach, and go home and work on the autumn harvest. "

Village head Zhang was suspicious: "It's solved? Why is it so fast, maybe it's because the adults don't want to hurt us."

The master laughed loudly: "If we have difficulties, we will definitely tell everyone, but you must know that no one dares to bully adults in Songjiang County, so you don't have to worry."

This is the truth. In Songjiang County, no one dares to bully the county magistrate. She is the only one who bullies others. She is wrong. She is educating others.

Hmph, these wolves run fast, otherwise they will have to pay for the taste of sticks and hoes.

...

At this moment, Li Mo is messing around with a bunch of messy things in the paper mill. Of course, the paper mill has not yet written a word, and it is still unknown when it will start production.

The mess is what Song Min thinks, isn't it? There are bamboos and trees, and it hasn't stopped since morning.

It should be said that none of the more than a dozen yamen servants who brought them was idle. They peeled, cut, and smashed these trees and bamboos, and there were other things that could not be named, which was exhausting.

What is Li Mo doing?

She is experimenting with how to make blank paper.

Paper in this era is ridiculously expensive. So many children want to study, the cost of paper alone is really huge. In this case, it is better to produce paper yourself.

It can meet the needs of Songjiang County, and can also be sold, killing two birds with one stone.

It's just that no one around here knows how to make paper, and no one knows the master of the paper mill. Alas, it's hard to find a master.

The paper in Songjiang County is shipped from other places, and it is difficult to trace the source. Even if the manufacturer is found, they may not be released.

I can only grope by myself, and I will hate the book when I use it. Why didn't I learn how to make paper back then, can I wear it back and learn it now?
Hey, who knew it would be time-traveling, I can only blame God for not opening his eyes, living well in the modern age, but an accident came to this ancient time.

The task of Song Min and others is to soak the bamboo, cut it into pieces, and grind it into pieces.

This is really not a human job. I have been hammering with a hammer all afternoon, and my arms are so painful that I can't lift them up.

Song Min stopped the hammer in his hand and asked Li Mo, "My lord, may I ask?"

Li Mo didn't raise his head: "Say."

"We've been tinkering all afternoon, what's the use of these?"

Li Mo: "Don't underestimate these things, the things produced are worth a lot of money."

"How valuable is it?" Song Min only cared about money, and everything else was just floating clouds.

Li Mo thought for a moment: "It will make you rich overnight."

Upon hearing this, all the yamen servants gathered around: "My lord, can we really get rich overnight?"

Li Mo smiled amusedly: "Okay, go back and have a good dream at night, and there will be everything in the dream."

"Go, my lord, can't you afford it?" A yamen servant joked.

Li Mo glanced at him: "Boy, I don't want to mess around anymore."

Song Min asked softly, "My lord, are these things worth much?"

Li Mo: "This is blank paper, do you think it's worth it?"

Song Min's eyes widened, with a look of shock on his face: "Blank paper? You said that we make these messy things just to make blank paper. With so many people here, don't they all know how to operate it, and how can we make money in the future?"

Everyone knows that paper is very expensive, which is also the reason why many children cannot afford books.

Now everyone knows how to make paper, that is, there are no secrets, and they all follow suit. Is the paper they produce worth money?
These issues that Song Min is most concerned about are that the things he has researched are used by others to produce them, and in the end he can't make a penny, so he is very aggrieved.

Li Mo raised his head, looked at Song Min, and said generously: "If everyone can follow suit and make it, it will be a good thing, and the price of paper will be reduced in the future, which will also benefit the common people.

If there are more people producing paper in the entire state of Jin, the paper will definitely be cheaper in the future, and more children will have the opportunity to study. Do you think this is the reason? "

When Song Min heard this, his face turned red. He was still too vulgar, thinking about money in everything, but the county magistrate was different, thinking about how to improve people's livelihood.

In order to hide his embarrassment, he had no choice but to pick up the sledgehammer and continue working.

Li Mo looked at the hard-working people and sighed. There is no large-scale equipment in this era, and it is all handmade.

Making paper requires large-scale machinery and equipment, but now it has to be made by hand bit by bit. It is really difficult to do anything, so it makes sense for paper to be so expensive.

For example, just one peeling, if there is a machine, the bark of a big tree can be peeled in a few minutes.

But not now, it would take half a day for a few yamen servants to just peel off the bark of a tree.

It is only a small-scale experiment now, and it takes so much time. If the research on paper is really successful, it will definitely be mass-produced in the future. The manual work cannot keep up, and the cost is too high. It seems that the equipment must be improved.

Find a blacksmith to study how to improve the equipment, even if it is purely handmade, you have to work hard on the props.

Li Mo shook his head, thinking too much, let's make the paper first, there is not even a shadow of the equipment.

Li Mo put the ground wood into a large pot and boiled it. He was inexperienced and didn't know how long it would take. There were still several processes behind it.

I have no experience, so I can't do it well at one time, and everything has to go through continuous experiments.

Finally on the fifth day, the first piece of paper was made.

Everyone cheered, and it took five days to exchange for a piece of paper, which was worth it.

Song Min looked at the thin piece of paper in front of him in disbelief, so excited that he didn't know how to describe his mood.

He basically participated in the whole process and knew how difficult the production process was.

During these five days, Li Mo lived and ate almost in the paper mill, as did the other yamen servants, who worked in shifts.

Because during the production process, the fire in the pot cannot be stopped.

It can be said that this group of people practiced in closed doors and kept their ears closed.

Holding the white paper, Li Mo smiled so hard that she couldn't see her teeth, haha, my mother is smart, these are all money, who will dare to kill us on paper in the future.

Blacksmiths, are you ready? I, Li Mo, will come to you to design tools.

By the time Li Mo returned to the Yamen, it was already the sixth day!
The master told the story of the villagers who came to support with all kinds of weapons that day.

Li Mo was slightly stunned: "Is there such a thing?"

The master was full of emotion: "Yes, at first, I thought they were here to make trouble, which really surprised everyone."

Li Mo smiled sincerely: "It seems that all the sacrifices are worth it."

If you give sincerely, there will be sincere returns.

The master remembered the businessmen from other places who came to inquire in the past few days: "My lord, some merchants from other places have come to inquire about whether their children can study in our school during this period of time."

Regarding this question, Li Mo didn't find it strange, which meant that Songjiang County had gradually been recognized by outsiders, which was a good thing.

Li Mo: "Have they always been doing business in Songjiang County, or are they just here?"

Master: "Two of them have been here for five or six years, and the youngest child was born in Songjiang County. The others only opened their shops in Songjiang County during this time."

Li Mo: "Check it out, those two who have been here for five or six years, how much did they pay in taxes, have they been doing business in Songjiang County all the time, have they opened a shop for a while, left again, and then came back to open again Yes, how long has it been between?"

The master didn't understand: "What does it matter?"

Li Mo patiently explained: "If they have stayed in Songjiang County for five or six years, and their tax revenue has reached a certain amount, their children can study in our school.

But the newcomers are not good. They have only been in Songjiang County for a few months at most, and they can't meet the requirements in terms of taxation or other aspects, that is, they don't contribute much.

If their children are allowed to study in school, and other outsiders see it, will they all let their children come to study? If you accept the first one, you must accept the second one, otherwise others will say you are unfair.

Our resources are already limited, and if they plug in, our children will have nowhere to go. "

Master: "Isn't this unfair?"

Li Mo: "There is nothing unfair. Our resources must first take care of our people. Have you ever thought that those people send their children here in the name of doing business, but they don't develop in Songjiang County? Do we still have to raise children for them?

Their children can go to school if they want, but they have to pay tuition fees. In total, the fee should not be higher than that of Yuanming Private School. "

Charging tuition fees is not the ultimate goal. Li Mo hopes that both local and non-local children can get a good education, but there is no way, resources are limited, it should be said that her pockets are too small, she is not an emperor, and she cannot let everyone All benefit.

"Develop a policy on what conditions foreigners must meet before they can enroll in our school for free."

Master: "Yes!"

If there is no Songjiang County school, children with non-local household registration can go to Yuanming Private School, but the fees there are too expensive.

Although they are all doing business, not everyone can make a lot of money.

It is best to be able to enter Songjiang County schools, which can save a lot of expenses and reduce the burden on the family.

Going to Yuanming private school is the last choice.

Yuanming Private School
Master Chen has no intention of going to class, and Master Feng has never returned since he went to the governor's mansion. I wonder if he is afraid of Li Mo's revenge.

Mrs. Feng is both the boss and the master. His departure like this would be like a thunderbolt to the Feng family.

His family thought that the Yuanming Private School was no longer necessary and planned to close it down.

Master Chen definitely disagrees, what will he do after closing the door?
Two concubines and an old man are waiting for him to raise them.

Once the private school is closed, where will he make money at his age?

For the past few days, Mr. Chen has been thinking about how to discuss with Mr. Feng's family, and let him take over the Yuanming private school.

It is impossible to recruit new students, everyone will definitely go to Songjiang County School, it depends on whether the current students can continue to study.

It's best if they don't pass the exam for a lifetime, so there is a reason for them to continue studying.

How about starting from next month, let the students directly hand over their repairs to themselves?
