Dressed as the cannon fodder who died prematurely, I will marry the villain in anger

Southland, Li tribe

The tribesmen bundled the dried and sorted paper, put it into a vine-woven basket, stacked it, and then placed the vine basket on both sides of the elephant.

After all the goods were arranged, Xian Yi led a few smart young men from the Li tribe and set off. They drove the elephants carrying the goods outside.

The tribesmen watched them go out with smiles on their faces.

"This time, more than 1 kilograms were shipped again."

Every time the goods are shipped, they take the elephants with them, so no one is tired.

"I heard that the three counties in the south are very fond of our two kinds of paper. What we sent is not enough to sell."

"Who wouldn't love it? It's cheap and easy to use."

Toilet paper costs three pennies a bundle, and a bundle is worth a knife, and a knife costs a hundred sheets.A piece of toilet paper is very thick. When you go to the toilet, you can basically just take out a piece of toilet paper.

In addition to toilet paper, there is also green knife paper.Green knife paper is for women to use during those days. Because it is boiled with herbs, it is a penny more expensive than toilet paper.

"Our days are getting better and better."

"It's the master who defected to my second uncle."

"Indeed." The sugar cane cannot be harvested until the end of the year, and it can be made into sugar to sell for money. From the beginning of the year to the end of the year, it is too long, so the second uncle sent them back to make a living.

They made these two kinds of paper two months ago, and they made a lot of money by selling toilet paper and green knife paper.

Then he took the money and exchanged it for a lot of daily necessities in the city. The life of the tribe has been greatly improved.

Teaching a man to fish is worse than teaching him to fish.They like this, earning money by working with their own hands, so secure.

"Last time A Ming came back, he seemed to have made great progress. He felt very different from before. I really hope that next time the chief sends people to Pingzhou, my son Lei will be selected." The woman who spoke looked yearning. .

"Haha, I thought so too."

The chief was walking around with his hands behind his back when he heard the tribesmen talking.He paused and did not continue forward. Instead, he turned a corner and took another path to continue walking.

Xian Yi led his tribe and elephants to the designated trading point. They did not enter the city and had been trading outside the city for two or three months.

At this time, the buyer Li San was already waiting there.

Li San is a small merchant. He opened a grocery store in the city. After the flood last year, the business in his store has been very cold.When he was worrying about how to get the business of his shop up, he overheard a mother and daughter complaining that there was no toilet paper and toilet paper for sale in the south. They also said that many ordinary people in Yangzhou next door used it, but there were none in the south.

He paid attention then.

Later, he went to Yangzhou to inquire about these two kinds of paper and bought some.He took some of these two pieces of paper home and sold the rest in his shop.Unexpectedly, his family members praised these two kinds of paper for their usefulness, and the ones placed in the shop were sold out soon after. Later, people kept coming to ask him when he would get more toilet paper and toilet paper.

Li San has used toilet paper and understands what these people think. Isn't it just a matter of eating two or three fewer eggs a month?But it’s convenient for the whole family.

At that time, he was happy and sad at the same time. He wanted goods, and he wanted a lot of goods!But if he goes to Yangzhou to purchase goods, firstly, the cost will be higher, and secondly, the other party will not be able to supply the quantity he wants.

At this moment, he discovered that there were people selling these two types of paper on the street in Southland, and he was immediately overjoyed!

The two parties have been cooperating since then.On average, the Li clan eats more than 1 kilograms of food every day, all of which he eats.

A few months later, he also made a lot of money.

After Li San asked someone to count the goods, he settled with Xian Yi.Give them the supplies they requested first, and settle the rest with money.

"When will the next shipment be delivered?"

"I can't say for sure. When the goods are available, I'll have someone greet you in advance." Xian Yi didn't give a definite answer.

When the tribe brought them the papermaking method from Pingzhou, they hinted that they should do this business as soon as possible, as it might be difficult to do it after the autumn harvest.

"alright."

The two parties settled the payment and left back to back.

At this time, Xie Nan also came to the Lujia Paper Mill.After others came in, they went straight to the master.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I got closer, I heard several young masters complaining to the master.

"The people above actually asked us to make toilet paper?"

"More than that, didn't you also ask me to make toilet paper for women to use in those days?"

"It's simply an insult to politeness!" Their papermaking workshop produces high-end paper like silver paper. It has never been so low-grade.

"Then toilet paper sells for three cents a dollar. How can you make money if it's so cheap?"

Hearing this, Xie Nan couldn't bear it anymore, "You guys should take a look at this first and then talk about it!" As he said that, he slapped the paper in his hand on the table next to him.

The master took the paper over casually, but the more he looked at it, the more wrong he looked.

Xie Nan admired the changes in their faces. Previously, they suggested that Lu's Papermaking Workshop produce these two kinds of paper. The master and the masters were not happy.

Now that they see this kind of thing they don't like making so much money, the master has shut up.

Xie Nan relieved himself, are these people still innocent?

Pingzhou

The autumn air is crisp and clear, and all the rice in Pingzhou has bent down, turned golden, and is ready to be harvested.

This autumn harvest, the soldiers from the military camp also came to help.

Almost the entire Pingzhou, except the old, weak, women and children, participated. Many people picked up the new sickle in their hands, and when they waved it, a large piece fell down.

Then there were the pedal threshing machines, two or three of them each, which were stepped on by these men till they made sparks fly.

The threshed millet was quickly transported to the dam and spread out on the ground to dry.

The diligent women tied the rice straws into scarecrows and left them on the ground to dry.

Of course, Xianbei knew about such a big commotion in Pingzhou.

Many of them were about to make a move, but were stopped by someone, "Wait a minute, wait until they dry the food for us."

"need."

During the autumn harvest, Lu Desheng personally talked to the people about taxation.

Hearing that they had to pay about two pounds and seven taels more tax per acre of land, the common people trusted Lu Desheng, so they had no objection.The main reason is that Pingzhou really had a bumper harvest this year, and more grain was harvested from each acre of land.Mr. Lu said that he wanted to pay more to the court, so he should pay it.

Lu Desheng couldn't tell how he felt when he saw the common people raising their heads and looking at him, with faces full of trust in him.

The common people make a living by farming, and every household has land. Twenty or thirty acres is not much.If the tax is paid according to the standard of 27 catties per mu, a family with ten acres of land will have to pay an additional [-] catties of grain.

In disaster years, these twenty or thirty kilograms of grain can not only save a life, but sometimes even get a wife.

But the plan must go ahead.
