The next day, when Yang Lin arrived at the paper factory again, Li Mo and Le Li were already waiting. Seeing Yang Lin coming, Li Mo said with a tense face, "Chief Yang, can you learn papermaking today?"

Seeing the two of them, especially Le Li's patient appearance, Yang Lin nodded and responded: "Come in with me."

After entering the paper mill, he immediately found Zhao Meng, and then said to Li Mo and Li Mo again: "Zhao Meng will teach you. Do you have any objections?"

"Chief Yang Ting, I asked you to teach by name. What do you mean?" Le Li was the first to retort. The night before yesterday, he had already said that Yang Lin would teach in person. Now it is not obvious to change the person.

Why don't you give yourself face? Although I have already lost face when I hit the wall every time I arrived at Lishui Pavilion, I can't just let Yang Lin arrange it every time.

Yang Lin looked at Li Mo again, who smiled coldly and said nothing, obviously agreeing with Le Li's statement. Yang Lin then put his hands behind his hands and said in a deep voice: "Do you know who taught the papermaking craftsmanship to these busy peasant women?

?" Yang Lin glanced at the two people and saw that they were still ignoring them, and then continued: "They are both Professor Zhao Meng and Businessman Li. Now do you understand what I mean?"

Hearing this, Li Mo was surprised. He didn't expect that Zhao Meng was really capable, so he finally spoke and said, "In that case, let Zhao Meng teach him."

When Le Li heard what his uncle said, he was dissatisfied, but did not refute it. Because after returning yesterday, Li Mo had already discussed with him that if he wanted to leave the remote countryside of Lishuiting as soon as possible, he must learn papermaking as soon as possible. Therefore,

, in order to return to the Sheriff's Mansion, he endured it now. It was pity for him, the eldest son of the Sheriff's Mansion, that when he arrived at Lishui Pavilion, he was suppressed by a small pavilion chief. If he didn't have too many scruples, why should he be so angry?

After handing Li Mo and Zhao Meng to Zhao Meng, Yang Lin left. Immediately afterwards, Zhao Meng began to teach him how to cook the raw materials, "put the bark into lime water and cook it..."

In order for the two of them to learn as soon as possible and leave Lishui Pavilion as soon as possible, Yang Lin specially prepared two new stoves for the two of them to practice. From then on, the two of them followed Zhao Meng to learn and practice step by step.

When the first day of teaching ended, Zhao Meng went to Yang Lin and reported: "To the chief of the pavilion, Li Mo did not cause any trouble today, but..." He hesitated.

"What's the matter? Just ask." Yang Lin waved his hand for Zhao Meng to sit down, and then asked again.

Zhao Meng frowned and continued: "Li Mo is fine. The key point is that although the county guard has not caused trouble, he has not studied hard. He has only scratched the surface of what Meng taught him."

Hearing this, Yang Lin was startled, and then he asked: "How is Li Mo studying now?"

"He can actually operate the process of cooking raw materials to extract fiber today." Zhao Meng replied immediately.

"Yes." Yang Lin nodded and said: "In this case, Le Li does not need too much supervision. If he wants to learn, teach him. If he is still frivolous, let him go. You only need to teach Li Mo

The church will do.”

"No! Meng understands." Zhao Meng bowed his hands and stepped back.

Another day later, Li Mo and Li Mo arrived at the paper mill early, and after chatting with Yang Lin for a few words, they went to ask Zhao Meng for advice. The two of them first practiced yesterday's fiber extraction process several times, but...

Le Li was impatient and only knew the basics. After several attempts, he only succeeded once, which was much worse than Li Mo.

Seeing this, Le Li lost his temper and left angrily, still complaining that papermaking was too complicated and tiring. Li Mo tried to dissuade him several times but to no avail. Then he sighed, thinking that his nephew was really

It was too frivolous. Since he was unwilling to learn, Li Mo simply stopped trying to stop him.

After that, Li Mo asked Le Li to go back to Li's Mansion to rest first, while he continued to study in Lishui Pavilion. The Sheriff's Young Master didn't want to study, so he had to learn. Otherwise, how would he be able to do business when he returned to the Sheriff's Mansion in the future?

Le Li left angrily. Yang Lin and Zhao Meng did not beg him to come back. Instead, they breathed a sigh of relief. With Le Li's impetuous temper, it was a great blessing to be able to avoid causing trouble for two days.

.

In this way, for the past half month, Li Mo came to the paper mill every day to learn from Zhao Meng. From the initial extraction of fiber, to the second removal of impurities and cooking, to the final extraction of pulp from the reed mat, it can be said that he has mastered all the processes. Le Le

During this period, Li came here twice every now and then to learn the general process of papermaking, and his life was quite comfortable.

And in the past half month, Lu Ze came here twice. In addition to pulling out paper books, he also brought a large amount of raw materials. Yang Lin purchased these raw materials at market prices and stored them for future use.

For future use.

Later, when Lu Ze took the paper and left, he once again told the latter to continue purchasing raw materials in various counties and make full use of them while the county magistrate had not yet built a paper mill.

After studying for the day, Li Mo thought for a while and went to the pavilion to find Yang Lin. He said in a deep voice with no hint of joy or anger: "Chief Yang, there have been many interruptions these days."

"Since it is the county governor who asked you to learn papermaking, this is not an intrusion. I wonder what businessman Li has to do with Lin? If you are just being polite, there is no need to say it. You and I are both doing the county governor's business." Yang Lin asked.

Li Mo sat on the couch next to him. He put down what he was doing and said lightly that he had no good impression of Li Mo, let alone friendship. The first time they met was because of papermaking. Let's be clear.

Just because of profit.

Li Mo said with a smile: "To be honest, Mo has also found out about papermaking. I think he can master it after a few more days of proficiency. However, Mr. Leli, you also know that he is young, playful and has a bad temper.

I haven’t done any in-depth research on the art of papermaking. I came here today because I want Chief Yang to be able to say something nice when the county guard asks him about it in the future, so that the young master will not be punished."

Hearing this, Yang Lin understood what Li Mo meant, and then he thought about it. The county magistrate asked Le Li to come here just to master the art of papermaking. Instead of letting this young man continue to act recklessly in Lishui Pavilion, it is better to let him go back as soon as possible, so he

He nodded and said: "Businessman Li has said so, Lin knows what to do. However, if the county guard knows the truth, Merchant Li don't blame Lin for telling the truth when the time comes."

"Don't worry, Mr. Yang, Mo understands in his heart." Li Mo bowed his hands and said goodbye.

When he returned to the Li Mansion, he informed Le Li of the matter. After hearing this, the latter felt happy, so he didn't worry about being punished when he returned to the Sheriff's Mansion. "Uncle, why don't you go back in a few days? Anyway,

You have also mastered the art of papermaking."

Li Mo held his chin and thought carefully before replying: "We will return to the county magistrate's house in three days. I will prepare some preparations in the next few days." If he went back early, he could build a paper mill as soon as possible, and Li Mo's heart became hot.

, those are all money.

Then Le Li also agreed, "Three days is three days, then Li will go and rest."

In the next few days, Le Li did not go to the paper mill again, but Li Mo went there once. He politely thanked Zhao Meng and left in a hurry.

However, at dusk on the third day, Yang Lin was invited by Wang Shan to Surabaya Pavilion at Lishui Pavilion. Yang Lin knew that if something had not happened, Wang Shan would not have let him go so anxiously, so he hurriedly

Let people drive the ox cart and drive them away.

When they arrived at the Tingting Department in Surabaya, all the chiefs in the thatched hut stood up and saluted when they saw Yang Lin. Yang Lin didn't care about too much etiquette. He pointed at Wangshan and immediately asked: "What happened?"

Wang Shan and all the village chiefs sighed in shame, and then he said angrily: "I would like to report to the chief of the pavilion, in the past few days, several peasant women have left the Sishuiting paper mill, and the families in which they were located ranged from the elderly to the elderly.

The Han people also left the pavilion in batches."

"Is this happening?" Hearing this, Yang Lin was surprised and immediately asked: "How many families left the pavilion in total, do you know their whereabouts?"

At this time, Li Li, who was in charge of stealing, stepped forward and said with his hands: "Ting chief, a total of twenty-three people from five households have left. Just today, Cong has found out that these people have been transferred to the Li Mansion in Pei County.

.”

"Li Mo?" Yang Lin groaned, and then after thinking about it carefully, he finally understood that Li Mo had bid farewell to Zhao Meng two days ago. Now it seems that he is not idle, but went to Sishui Pavilion to poach five papermakers.

A peasant woman in the factory. "Li Qiu, the thief, ordered you to go to the pavilion to investigate again to prevent other farmers from being picked up by Li's house."

"No!" Li Cong immediately went out to make arrangements.

"Then what should we do with these people who have left their homes?" Wang Shan asked again.

"Follow me to the Li Mansion." Yang Lin ordered in a deep voice, and then led Wang Shan towards Pei County.

……………………………………………………

On the outskirts of Peixian County, Li Mo and Le Li led dozens of people to drive ox carts and horse-drawn carriages and anxiously left at dusk. Walking on the bumpy dirt road, Le Li asked in confusion: "Uncle, what did you say?

The only preparation is to bring these country people with you?"

Li Mo nodded and smiled softly: "The peasant women among them are all skilled laborers in Yanglin Paper Mill. It took me a lot of effort to poach them. If it weren't for the name of the county guard,

It’s really hard to convince this group of people. In the future, when we build a paper mill, we will have to rely on these peasant women and professors, so you won’t be exposed.”

"My uncle has thought it all." Le Li also laughed and said, he only knows the basics of papermaking, how can he teach it when he returns? If the county guard knew, wouldn't he be angry to death? Now that he has a peasant woman, he can also fish in troubled waters.

He passed the test. Thinking of this, Le Li couldn't help but feel relieved a lot.

"Hurry up and hurry up. If Yang Lin suffers a loss this time, he will definitely go to Li Mansion to look for him." Li Mo said again, and then ordered the coachmen to hurry up.

Just as Li Mo said, by the time Yang Lin arrived at the Li Mansion, he was still in vain and it was already too late.

Today I have a chapter of 3,000 words. Voltage has some bottlenecks because the plot is progressing slowly and everyone may be tired. Voltage now wants to quietly think about how to speed up the progress, because according to the outline, there is still a lot to write.

There is no writing in the place, but there are foreshadowings in the front. We need to think about how to solve these. Try to make sure that Liu Bang dies this week and the turmoil starts at the end of Qin next week.
Chapter completed!
