Chapter 213 Papermaking Workshop
After the meal, Lin Xiazhi asked Yang Yusheng to find someone to inform Li Mao of Wangshan Village, and told him that the village had started to build a greenhouse.
After finishing all this, Lin Xiazhi and Cheng Wenliu didn't stay in Lin's Village, and went straight back to Cheng's house.
Because of the construction of the greenhouse, the villagers, who were still immersed in the joy of having two more children in the village, became busy, and also dispelled the idea of the Zhou family and Uncle Lin's family wanting to hold a celebration banquet for their children.
Lin Chengzong from the Lin family was admitted to Tongsheng, but they didn't do anything. They should also learn from the Lin family to keep a low profile and let the children study quietly.
It was the first time that a child in the Linjiacun School passed the Tongsheng examination. Every household with a child studying in the village school looked forward to it. They asked their children to learn from Lin Tianci and Zhou Pengyuan, study hard and get a good name in the exam.
Not only the adults, but also the children envied him, wanting to be like Lin Tianci and Zhou Pengyuan, becoming the prominent children in the village, and the learning atmosphere in the Linjiacun School was high for a while.
On the other hand, Li Mao of Wangshan Village got the news of Lin Xiazhi, so he called together the rabbit-raising villagers in Wangshan Village on the same day, and asked them if they would like to go to Linjia Village to learn how to build a greenhouse to grow vegetables and raise rabbits in winter.
You need to invest some money to build a greenhouse, and you can pay back the cost if you raise rabbits later, and you can also sell other vegetables grown in the greenhouse.
When some people heard Li Mao say that they wanted to invest money, they began to back down. They had just made some money by raising rabbits, and they had to spend it again before they were warmed up. This kind of mood made them feel very uncomfortable.
Li Mao felt annoyed when he saw these people's embarrassing behavior, what a wonderful thing, but he was unwilling because of the cost.
After Li Mao notified the villagers, it was already too late, and he had no time to go to Linjia Village that day, so he had to tell the villagers that those who were willing to go to Linjia Village to learn about greenhouses should gather at his house tomorrow morning.
After the villagers left, Li Mao ran to Qian Ying's room with a depressed face.
"Brother Ying, I'm really going to die from all this anger." Li Mao put his head on Qian Ying's belly, listening to the movement of Qian Ying's belly, to ease his mood.
Qian Ying put down her needlework and asked Li Mao patiently, "But what happened?"
Li Mao is an optimistic and cheerful person. He usually greets people with a smile on his face. He rarely complains in front of Qian Ying. This time, he doesn't know who offended him.
"It's not just those people in our village. I don't know why they are so thick-skinned. Only then did I realize why it was so difficult when Brother Xia told me about it." Li Mao stood up angrily. .
"Let me tell you, didn't Brother Xia let the villagers raise rabbits before, and everyone didn't spend any money on raising rabbits, and everyone said I was good when they made money a few days ago.
"Those who didn't raise rabbits at the beginning made sour and sarcastic remarks. Let's not talk about it. They just said that grapes are sour because they can't eat grapes."
"Didn't you say that Zhou Ahmao came to ask you to raise more rabbits last time? At that time, you told him that if you want to raise more rabbits, you have to store hay, and you have to learn from Lin's family's greenhouse to grow some vegetables that rabbits can eat."
"Today I told everyone that Linjiacun is going to build a shed. Everyone will go to Linjiacun to study tomorrow. There is no problem here. When I talk about buying oil paper for the shed, these people will start to be dissatisfied."
"They don't have to take any risks when co-authoring, and they can learn a craft from others with only a little capital. There is nothing better in the world than this. I am not willing to do this, and I am really convinced."
Li Mao said a lot, and finally let out the gloom in his heart, and his complexion improved a lot.
"It's not easy for everyone to earn some money. They are short-sighted and can't see these things clearly. They may regret it later. Just do your own thing well and don't worry so much." Qian Ying stood up and poured Li Mao a glass of water, " It seemed that you wanted to compete for Li Zheng's position after Li Zheng retired, but now it seems that this position is not so easy to occupy."
"I'll think about it again."
You know, he thought he had some reputation in the village before, maybe he could try to run for the position of Lizheng, but now it seems that it is not so easy, his blood has cooled down, so it is better to think about developing well if he has that thought In my own chicken coop, I raise two more pigs.
Most of the villagers in Wangshan Village have mixed surnames, and everyone has their own concerns and is not united. Unlike Linjia Village, the Lin people are united as one, and everyone is willing to listen to Lizheng's words on major issues.
"By the way, Ah Zhou, what's their attitude?"
"Ah Zhou, after hearing what I said, they said that they would go to Linjiacun tomorrow." Li Mao was still a little depressed.
Seeing that Li Mao was in a better mood, Qian Ying talked to him: "Tomorrow will you take people from our village to Linjiacun?"
"Well, I'll take them there on the first day, and then they will go by themselves." Li Mao nodded.
Li Mao's popularity in Linjia Village is not bad. It is much easier for him to take the villagers to Linjia Village to learn how to build a greenhouse than to let the villagers go by themselves.
"Well, you should pay more attention tomorrow and don't let everyone run around. You know that there are several workshops in Linjiacun. If you are going to the eldest brother's house, you must pay more attention." Qian Ying warned.
"I know this, and I will discuss this with them in advance." Li Mao nodded. If he couldn't even do this well, he wouldn't have the face to bother Brother Xiu.
Early the next morning, there were men from more than a dozen families who came to the door of Li's house and were waiting to go to Lin's village. Li Mao saw that there were more people than he expected, and he finally had a smile on his face.
A group of people followed Li Mao to Linjia Village. There were so many people that Li Mao's donkey cart couldn't pull it, so he didn't take the donkey cart at all, and led the villagers to Linjia Village together.
When everyone arrived at Linjia Village, they first went to Linjia to help Lin Huzi build a greenhouse.
Lin Huzi got Lin Xiazhi's words, and carefully explained the process of building the greenhouse to the villagers of Wangshan Village, and also talked about how to manage the greenhouse after it was built.
Those who were willing to follow Li Mao were those who wanted to learn, and they all listened with pricked ears, not daring to miss a word, for fear of making mistakes when they went back.
Li Mao didn't build a greenhouse, so he still had to follow behind and learn how to build a greenhouse. He was the one who took the lead in this matter, and he was still responsible if something went wrong.
Li Mao realized more and more deeply that it is difficult to lead the villagers, and seriously thought about whether he was suitable for Lizheng.
After Lin Huzi finished his theory, he began to take the villagers of Wangshan Village to build a greenhouse in his own field.
In the morning, Lin Huzi and the people hired by the Lin family to help with farming were busy in front, while the villagers of Wangshan Village watched from behind.
In the afternoon, Lin Huzi asked them to try the water.
The greenhouse that this group of people built for the first time was not satisfactory, and one place was damaged, so Lin Huzi had to tear it down and rebuild it.
Lin Xiazhi asked Lin Xiaodong to go to Linjia Village to inquire about the situation. After returning, Lin Xiaodong described the appearance of the villagers in Wangshan Village to Lin Xiazhi.
"It's fine if someone is willing to learn. Is anyone from other villages coming?" Lin Xiazhi said to the clumsy people of Wangshan Village and didn't comment.
"Yes, I heard that there is more than one village. Those husbands who are married from other villages let their family members come to learn. Lizheng said that when people from other villages come, the villagers are willing to teach and teach. People from any village can learn. "
Lin Xiaodong is small and has a good memory, so he told Lin Xiazhi about the arrival of people from nearby villages like pouring beans.
"Okay, okay, I can't remember your young master even if you said so much." Lin Xiazhi stopped Lin Xiaodong from talking.
Lin Xiaodong pouted secretly: "Second young husband, you are now young husband."
Lin Xiazhi couldn't help laughing, the kid was getting more and more courageous, even daring to joke with him.
After sending people away, Lin Xiazhi thought about the situation in Beishan Village.
The tenant farmers of the Qin family raised rabbits, and they also had to build a shed, otherwise the rabbits would not eat enough in winter, and the shopkeeper Dong would cry to him again if they were not growing well.
Yes, ever since Lin Xiazhi married into the Cheng family, regarding the number of rabbits, shopkeeper Dong has changed from looking for Cheng Wenliu to looking for Lin Xiazhi. In less than half a month, he looked for Lin Xiazhi three times, and every time he said rabbits If there is less, the guests are clamoring for not enough food.
Originally selling cold-eating rabbits was enough. Later, Jufulou added roasted whole rabbits. The rabbits used for roasting whole rabbits are not big, and some customers who can eat them can eat a whole one. The taste is honey. There are several kinds of juice, spicy, cumin, etc., and it is more popular than eating cold when it is released.
As a result, the rabbits in Jufulou were not enough to sell, so shopkeeper Dong would often look for Lin Xiazhi, hoping that he would resolve this conflict as soon as possible.
The problem is that it is late autumn now, and the grass is not growing. How can we feed so many rabbits for the guests to eat? We can only rely on the greenhouse to see if we can raise more rabbits.
So the next day, Lin Xiazhi asked Lin Xiaodong to go back to Linjiacun, and asked Xiangbo to tell the Qin family in Beishan Village to build a greenhouse so that they could plant something to feed the rabbits in winter.
The tenants of the Qin family are very familiar with the Lin family village. They used to install bamboo pipes in the dry fields, and later led by the Lin family to install bamboo pipes in their homes. The Qin family has long heard about the benefits of greenhouses in winter. The construction of the greenhouse also got a rough idea from the villagers.
They didn't ask the Lin family to send someone to teach them. They have dealt with bamboo a lot in the past six months, and they know bamboo better than ordinary farmers. Old Qintou and his men quickly built a greenhouse on ten acres of land.
They have no experience in how to manage the greenhouse, so they will still have to ask the Lin family for advice.
After all, building greenhouses was done by a small number of farmers, and it did not attract everyone's attention in Jiangning County, because another major event happened in Jiangning County at the end of October: the county magistrate ordered people to build paper workshops.
I heard that this order was handed down from the county town. There are nineteen counties in Lishui County, and five of them were selected by the sheriff to build paper workshops. The people in Jiangning County were surprised by the discussion .
It is said that the papermaking technology is in the hands of some big families in the capital. When did the imperial court actually have a new papermaking technology and wanted to make paper in a large workshop.
When Lin Xiazhi heard the news, he was relieved. After waiting for more than half a year, he finally waited for something to happen. He was worried that the new paper he made would not be taken seriously.
