work in Yang Lin's place and still want to settle the wages Dream on!""You bring how many people If anyone doesn't listen, beat him up!""But..." the butler said with difficulty, "Outside it's all bein..."Ding Dong!"

Zhao Fugui, with a smile on his face, knocked on the copper cymbal and shouted loudly, "What is a mutual aid fund I didn't understand it at first, but Yang Lin explained it to me."

"That's right, if anyone here gets sick or has some misfortune and needs money, they can come to me and apply for a loan."

Every household, the maximum is one thousand wen.

Of course, special cases can be treated specially if necessary.

"As for the money that was used, doesn't it mean we don't have to pay it back"

"Of course not! Yang Lin said, this mutual aid fund exists to help the poor get through tough times!"

"If everyone used the money and didn't pay it back, then slowly this mutual aid fund would disappear, wouldn't it"

"So, the money from this mutual aid fund not only needs to be repaid, but also with interest, so that our mutual aid fund can grow stronger!"

"The interest rate isn't high, just one point, and you don't have to pay it back right away. Just make sure the old debt is paid off before you borrow again!"

"Did everyone understand"

Zhao Fugui smiled broadly, watching the villagers.

This matter was also something Yang Lin had discussed with him early on, and he wouldn't let him manage the money for nothing. He would give him ten taels of silver each year as wages.

Although his life as the village head was better than that of the villagers, ten ounces of silver was not a small sum for him. Zhao Fu貴 naturally wanted to do it.

This mutual aid fund, although a new term, everyone understands it clearly, doesn't it It just means borrowing money will be easier in the future!

This is definitely a great thing.

With mutual aid funds, who would sell their children or property in the future

The villagers naturally cheered with delight.

"Ahem, this second part is about road construction!" Yang Lin continued.

"The road outside our village is full of potholes, it's very difficult to walk on, especially when it rains. Every few steps you take, your foot gets covered in mud!"

"So I decided, the east end of the village and the west end of the village, separately build a road ten meters… oh, three zhang wide, one li long paved with stone!"

At the same time, another road is being built to the south, leading to the river.

"Building a road is a big project. I'm prepared to invest one thousand taels of silver upfront!"

After Yang Lin finished speaking, there was another uproar among the villagers. They started discussing it excitedly.

"Is it really going to cost that much"

"My goodness, spending so much money on the road, that's too extravagant!"

"Well, well, you can't say that. That money belongs to Yang Lin. He can spend it however he wants, even if it goes down the drain, it's his freedom."

"That's right! And repairing the roads is a good thing, too. In the future, our village and the surrounding areas will have better roads. It'll be more convenient for everyone!"

And we'll need people to build the roads, so when it's done, we can all make money.

"That's right, just like Yang Lin said a moment ago... oh, take from the people, use for the people! Well said!"

As expected, Yang Lin immediately announced that 100 workers would be hired to build the road, with the same pay of five coins a day!

The villagers cheered again.

"The last part, the remaining 1,500 taels, I plan to use them to build a house!"

The villagers were stunned once again.

Building a house

What kind of house would cost so much to build!

"My uncle and I have counted, there are a total of 238 households in our village. I'm planning to use this money to build a brick house for each household!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the scene erupted once again.

Every household has moved into a new house Such a big expense! Such a bold move!

The entire mountain village, with over 200 households, now has fewer than ten brick and tile houses!

Most people wouldn't dare to dream of living in a brick house.

At this moment, many people's eyes are welling up with tears of excitement.

Zhao Fuguì coughed and said, “Yang Lin and I have discussed it. Since everyone in the village is building new houses, there’s no need to demolish the old ones. We might as well find a piece of empty land and build all our new houses there. Then, our entire village will move in together!”

This way, we can build new houses uniformly. Not only can we design the same floor plans and build them more beautifully, but we can also reduce costs.

"Don't all look at me like that, I, Old Zhao, don't have that kind of brainpower. These are all Yang Lin's ideas. If you want to thank someone, thank Yang Lin."

Everyone watched Yang Lin excitedly.

Although no one said anything, everyone's eyes spoke volumes.

"Ahem, everyone hold your horses!"

Zhao Fugui continued, "There's something I need to make clear to everyone. Yang Lin and I roughly calculated that with 1,500 taels of silver, we could only build 238 houses, which definitely wouldn't be enough."

"What can we do This calls for everyone to chip in together."

Someone immediately reacted and shouted, "So you're saying we have to pay for it ourselves"

"That's right!"

Zhao Fugui said: "Yang Lin and I calculated that although there is a shortfall, it's not very large. Each person only needs to make up one thousand wen. If it's still not enough at that time, Yang Lin will take on the rest!"

A thousand words

At the sound of this number, many people frowned.

Some people have families of five or six, so that would be five or six thousand wen

These days, very few families can afford hundreds of copper coins, let alone thousands.

A young man said angrily, "Village head, you wouldn't have colluded with Yang Lin to swindle us, would you"

"Yeah, we don't have that much money."

"It's alright for families with fewer people, but my family has eight members! Eight thousand wen That's not fair!"

Many people nodded in agreement.

Zhao Fugui was about to speak when Yang Lin coldly said first, "Who just said that I, Yang Lin, wanted to cheat money Was it Brother Erdog"

"If I, Yang Lin, wanted to swindle money, why would I take it out in the first place"

"Building a house is a way to give back to everyone, something beneficial for all. I don't insist on building it, those who are willing to contribute, welcome! If no one wants a brick house, that's fine too, the fifteen hundred taels of silver will just be mine then!"

He was named Erdog, and just as he opened his mouth to speak, he seemed to think of something, immediately drooping his head and falling silent.

The rest of the villagers also came to their senses.

Everyone knows how much it costs to build a brick house, at least a dozen taels of silver!

And now, every person only needs to contribute one thousand wen, which is just a few ounces of silver. For families of five or six, only five or six ounces of silver are needed to obtain a brick and tile house, truly the most affordable price imaginable!

To know, building a thatched house also costs two or three silver coins.

So, everyone also believes that Yang Lin is indeed doing good deeds.

"Ergou, don't you hurry up and apologize to Yang Lin! Yang Lin is doing this for everyone's sake. How can you have such a narrow mind" Zhao Fugui said angrily.

“Oh, I was wrong...”

Ergou drooped his head.

Zhao Fugui told Yang Lin: "Ergou knows he was wrong, but although building a house is already cheap, everyone really can't afford it. What should we do"

"This is simple, I can personally invest and establish a housing fund. Anyone who needs money can borrow from me, and they only need to make monthly mortgage repayments."

Looking at Yang Lin and Zhao Fu貴 talking back and forth, one after the other, Li Yuyao on the side had a strange expression.

Although she doesn't know what Yang Lin is up to right now, she always feels that what he's doing seems like the "routine" he once mentioned.ns, people are approaching.This means...They were surroundedBoth Ziyi and Qingyi were shocked by what they saw in each other's eyes.I admire how they persevered throughout their journey, facing bandit...
