At the beginning, his wife came to him, and he became rich by selling kidney treasures.

A donkey cart can only pull less than fifty stone slabs. Even if you hire ten donkey carts, it will take at least ten times to finish pulling the load.

All in all, it would cost less than ten taels of silver to hire a donkey cart.

"Boss Guo, isn't this too expensive?" Ren Hao frowned.

Guo He smiled and said, "Brother Ren, I manage all the donkey carts in this county. If you hire them to pull a cart, it will be much more expensive than mine."

Threat!

Naked threat!

Ren Hao's cheeks twitched involuntarily. This is a monopoly!

Is this capital or power?

Or is it a combination of both?

"Okay, then I'll trouble you, Boss Guo." Ren Hao said with a gloomy face as he handed over the remaining one hundred taels of payment.

"Boss Guo, can we settle the transportation fee after the delivery is completed?" Ren Hao asked.

Guo He smiled and said, "No problem. Isn't your home in Caixu Village? Let's visit each other more often in the future. Brother Ren, you will never suffer any loss."

Ren Hao smiled bitterly. Guo He relied on the fact that he had a brother who was a county magistrate, so he would not suffer any loss if he knew him.

If it weren't for the fact that his relationship with Guo Qian was not that good now, Guo He would definitely not dare to slander him today.

However, there was a threat in Guo He's words. The monk may run away, but the temple cannot. If he dared not to pay, he would really cause trouble for him.

In fact, Ren Hao was not afraid. Guo Qian's lifelong happiness depended on him, so he had to give him some face.

"Don't worry, brother. I'll ask someone to deliver it to you right away. It will take about two or three days to deliver the five thousand yuan. After all, your Caixu Village is still a bit far away."

"Okay." Ren Hao nodded helplessly.

The task that was originally supposed to take three days to prepare was unexpectedly completed in just over two days. Ren Hao did not plan to stay any longer and went home early.

After all, no matter how nice the room in the restaurant is, he won’t be able to sleep well without his wife’s arms around him.

……

Cai Xucun.

Ren Hao's home.

At this moment, Su Wan'er was sitting in the yard. There was a pot of tea on the table in front of her. Opposite her, sat a slim and graceful woman.

Xu Yating!

"Sister, your husband is so amazing. I heard that he couldn't even have enough food last month, but now he has such a big business. I really admire him to death." Xu Yating praised repeatedly.

Su Wan'er smiled and said gently, "Yes, my husband is really amazing. When I first came, there was only a handful of wild vegetables at home. After a few days, my husband made enough money to buy rice and meat."

"Since then, I have been able to eat rice and meat every day. My husband is so kind."

Hearing Su Wan'er praising Ren Hao, Xu Yating curled her lips imperceptibly.

He was just a lazy guy who got lucky occasionally. He got the secret recipe of papermaking, which made him rich.

There are so many people in this world who are more hardworking than Ren Hao, but they still can’t even get enough to eat. This is so unfair!

She complained to Ren Hao in her heart, but Xu Yating responded on the surface: "Yes, yes, your husband is really amazing."

The smile on Su Wan'er's face became even wider.

This morning, Xu Yating came here again and pretended to take a casual walk. When Su Wan'er saw her, she greeted her.

Women's friendships always develop quickly, and after a few words, and with Xu Yating's deliberate efforts to make friends, the two soon became good friends who could talk about anything.

Xu Yating had a good idea. Since there was no way to take action against Ren Hao, she would start with Su Wan'er.

As long as the timing is right, I will be able to find out how Ren Hao made this paper.

"Sister, these papers in your house are not cheap, right?" When Xu Yating came to visit the room, she looked surprised and asked, pointing at some papers on the table.

Su Wan'er smiled and said, "It's nothing, my husband did it himself."

"Oh? What is it made of?" Xu Yating asked in shock.

Su Wan'er used her hands to push the loose hair on her forehead behind her ears and said lightly, "I don't know either. I'm a woman, and these are my husband's business."

"Have you never seen it?" Xu Yating secretly complained in her heart. As soon as she saw Su Wan'er's insincere look, she knew that she was not telling the truth.

Thinking of this, Xu Yating asked again: "You must have seen what your husband used to make it, right?"

"I see so many bamboos in the yard, are they made of bamboo?"

Hearing Xu Yating's words, the smile on Su Wan'er's face froze.

The reason why she was so secretive was because Ren Hao had told her not to tell anyone how the paper was made, including her younger sisters Su Ling'er and Qian'er at home.

I’m afraid they might accidentally tell others and get into trouble.

So Su Wan'er also kept it in mind and just said that the paper was made by Ren Hao, but refused to disclose the materials and process.

Seeing that Su Wan'er refused to give in, Xu Yating had to change the subject and give up temporarily.

Xu Yating knew that there was no way to get any information out of Su Wan'er today.

Only by waiting for a few days until the relationship has become familiar, and then trying to get some information from the other person, will there always be a chance to get some key information.

But what is certain now is that bamboo is the raw material for making paper.

Because when she asked just now, the expression on Su Wan'er's face was very strange, which made her confirm it immediately.

But just knowing the materials is useless, just like everyone knows that pottery pots are made from fired clay, but just knowing the materials is useless, you also need the production method.

These are the top priorities.

With Xu Yating's deliberate catering, after half a day, Su Wan'er felt that she and Xu Yating had met too late, and they were as familiar as real sisters.

"Sister, it's getting late. I want to go back." Xu Yating said.

Su Wan'er held her hand and said with a smile, "Sister, you'd better not leave. Stay here with me tonight. My husband has gone to the county town and said he will be back in three days."

"This..." Xu Yating hesitated slightly and looked at the sky which was gradually getting darker. She thought that if they could sleep together and talk at night, perhaps it would bring them closer. Maybe Su Wan'er would be so moved that she would tell the truth?

Thinking of this, Xu Yating nodded: "Then I'll bother you, sister."

"Don't be polite, just treat it as your own home." Su Wan'er invited Xu Yating to sit down.

At this time, Su's mother had also prepared dinner, and Xu Yating stayed to eat.

Although there were not many dishes, Su's mother was still a good cook. In addition, Xu Yating herself was not the kind of young lady who only ate delicacies from land and sea all day long. She finished the meal happily with Su Wan'er and others.

After dinner, the two women squeezed into one bed, talked together at night, slept in a three-legged manner, and fell asleep slowly while chatting.

Outside.

Ren Hao drove the donkey cart in, unloaded the cart, and put the donkey back under the shelter to eat grass and rest.

He was also extremely exhausted, so he forced himself to wash himself briefly at the door, then walked into the house in the dark with his upper body naked.

Without even looking at the bed clearly, he just climbed up onto it, hugged the woman beside him in his arms, and fell into a sound sleep.
