Chapter 7 First Night in the Bridal Chamber

g Lin shouted loudly.As soon as the words left his mouth, a thunderous explosion roared, like an announcement of Koushan Village's bloody rebirth!Early the next morning, nearly the whole village of Ko..."I told you, I won't let you starve again. Yang Lin keeps his word!"

All the women stared in astonishment.

Li Yuxiang came closer, looked at the bag, and was also startled.

"How could it possibly sell for so much money"

Li Yuxiang was surprised, but also suddenly enlightened.

"So, you never intended to use tofu as food You just wanted to make money from it!"

"But how can tofu possibly be so profitable, to earn so much money" Li Yuyao asked in astonishment.

She also blamed Yang Lin for setting the price too low before.

It seems that the profit from tofu is even higher than she imagined.

Yang Lin smiled mysteriously: "Guess."

Li Yuxiang thought for a moment: "30% profit"

Yang Lin shook his head.

"Fifty percent" Li Yuyao boldly guessed.

A 50% profit margin is already considered a huge profit.

However, Yang Lin still shook his head.

"Even higher That's impossible!"

Li Yuxiang couldn't believe it.

"Forget it, you're too timid to even guess. I'll just tell you directly."

"Heh heh, not too much, just twice as much."

"You guys are so busy, you don't even know how much tofu you made today, do you"

"

Two cents per jin of beans can make three blocks of tofu!

"

Little Nine also excitedly said, "We soaked a total of two hundred catties of beans and sold six hundred thirty blocks of tofu, earning a total of one thousand four hundred and fifty wen. After deducting the cost, the net profit is one thousand wen!"

Hearing this number, all the women were stunned.

It only cost two hundred text coins and some sorghum.

One day's time, and you earned this much

It's a shame they believed Yang Lin before. They really thought there wasn't much profit and that it was all for nothing after working hard all day.

Little did he know, Xiao Jiu had already counted so much money that his hand cramped up!

When Li Yuyao heard about double the profit, she was also hard to believe.

She could guess that making tofu might be somewhat profitable.

You wouldn't believe how high the profits are.

Thinking about Yang Lin facing the villagers, calling each one "not profitable" and "fellow countrymen," that sincere look...

Bah, cheater!

He even fooled himself.

Yesterday still seemed like a distant number.

Just one day passed, and he actually did it!

"Is this enough money to pay off the debt"

Let's pay off our debts first.

Someone said.

Yet Yang Lin shook his head.

"Everyone is tired after a long day, if we don't eat something good to replenish our energy, how can we have the strength to work tomorrow"

"Do as I say, tonight we're having white rice with pork, everyone must eat their fill!"

As for repaying the debt, just earn more tomorrow.

"As long as I want, not to mention one thousand three hundred wen, even ten thousand three hundred wen can be easily earned!"

Making tofu only brings in hard-earned money, and even double the profit doesn't factor in labor costs. If it were the past, hiring ten people to make tofu would result in bankruptcy within minutes!

Upon hearing Yang Lin's words, Li Yuyao was deeply disappointed.

I thought Yang Lin still had some abilities, but it turns out he's just a conceited and arrogant jerk.

Having just a little bit of achievement, one doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth, nor does one know how to be frugal. With such a frivolous mindset, how can one accomplish great things

However, there are still two days left. If the sales continue like today, it wouldn't be difficult to earn another thousand wen.

So, although she also felt that Yang Lin earned money and only indulged in pleasure, lacking foresight, she did not oppose it.

After arranging for the elder sister and second sister, Yang Lin also arranged for the third sister to boil water and soak beans, the fourth and fifth sisters to chop firewood, and the sixth sister to find a carpenter to make molds. The three younger sisters, Xiaoqi, Xiaoba, and Xiaojiu, continued to go to the village to purchase beans. After everyone left, Li Yuyao found Yang Lin.

"You only just met them today, and you're already giving them so much money Aren't you afraid they'll run off with the money"

Li Yuxiang asked curiously.

Yang Lin smiled.

Of course, there's nothing to be afraid of. Just a measly thousand words.

If they really took the money and disappeared, then for me, it would only be a loss of a thousand wen.

But for them, the loss was a beautiful future!

"If you only spend a thousand mon, you can test out someone, not only without losing but also very worthwhile."

Yang Lin's eyes glinted with a hint of cunning.

Li Yuyao pondered for a moment, then her eyes widened in astonishment as she exclaimed, "So you were intentionally testing them by having them spend money"

Yang Lin smiled, neither confirming nor denying.

"As my wife just said, we've only known each other for a day. I don't know everyone's temperaments and personalities well. While probing might seem a bit petty, it's the most prudent approach."

"The strongest fortresses are often conquered from within."

Now that I've made my choice, I can rest easy about the future.

Li Yuxiang frowned and asked, “Do you trust me”

"Faith!"

Yang Lin answered without hesitation.

"Why We've only just met today." Li Yuyao said, unwilling to accept it.

Yang Lin smiled: "Because I can see that Madam is no ordinary person, and she is also a smart person."

"Intelligent people often know what the best choice is."

Li Yuxiang was surprised.

Although she was still resentful of Yang Lin, she had to admit that what he said actually made a lot of sense.

The town is only six miles from the mountain village. Big sister and second sister didn't take any money to run away, and they were back full load in less than an hour.

Large chunks of pork, simmered directly in the pot.

It didn't take long for the fragrance to waft through the air, and everyone inhaled deeply, their mouths watering.

Among them, some came from wealthy families, but due to various circumstances, they hadn't eaten meat for a long time.

A bowl of fragrant white rice, accompanied by crispy and tender large pieces of pork, was placed before them. The sound of swallowing saliva could be heard incessantly.

"Eat! Look at what I'm doing From now on, in our house, there are no more of those silly rules. You don't have to wait for me to eat."

He doesn't like to eat until everyone else has started, Yang Lin really can't get used to it.

Yang Lin spoke, and the women immediately forgot their manners, wolfing down the food with messy mouths slick with oil.

But as I was eating, tears started streaming down my face uncontrollably.

There is happiness, there are memories, and there is moving...

When villagers passed by Yang Lin's house, they were also attracted by the smell inside.

"It smells so good, what is this"

"It's pork! My family ate it last year during Chinese New Year."

"Out of season, the Yang family actually eats pork That's too extravagant!"

"Oh, young people these days, they just don't know how to live properly."

He will regret it someday for not being frugal.

"Looks like he made a fortune selling tofu. Tomorrow, we won't buy his tofu and see if he still acts so cocky."

Yes, don't buy anything tomorrow.

"Once you have some money, you forget your own name. It's even hard to say if you have enough to support those women."

"When it's time for him to pay the head tax, he'll know how it feels."

Villagers passing by grumbled.

But thinking about Yang Lin marrying so many wives, I envied him again...

After dinner, it was completely dark.

A dim oil lamp flickered inside, casting a warm glow on the beautiful faces gathered there.

They were all Yang Lin's wives and concubines. They were too busy last night to attend to "important business."

Since tonight is free, Yang Lin's such a lecher. So tonight, he's probably going to get lucky in the bridal chamber, right

Thinking about what was to come, Li Yuyao's heart pounded wildly...ng was even more surprised.He knows all the people who came here.Besides Zhang Ping, the other three were, respectively, a standing clerk, a quick clerk, and Zhang Ping's original deputy.They... were...
