The first step in printing food stamps is to make paper. Zhang He plans to do anti-counterfeiting on the paper. Buying ordinary paper will definitely not work.

Moreover, ordinary paper is broken after being circulated several times, and it is not easy to preserve.

So it is best to have a paper mill by yourself, and you can improve the papermaking process at any time, and finally make paper that meets the requirements.

Zhang He only had a half-knowledge about papermaking. He knew the general process from some books in his previous life, so it was still difficult to make a finished product.

Now it is best to recruit skilled craftsmen and build the shelves of the paper mill first.

Wei Peng set a high price among the refugees, offering a reward for recruiting craftsmen who can make paper.

Since there are no paper mills around Dehua County, the reward offer has been issued for more than ten days, but it is still like nothing.

Although there were people who came to apply for the job, they all wanted to cheat for food and drink, and were beaten away by Wei Peng with a random stick.

In the end, Wen Sheng got the news through the caravan. There is a papermaking workshop in Qiushui County. Although there is not much food in stock, it has been robbed by refugees three times this year, and now it can no longer start work.

Zhang He immediately transferred a sum of money and food, and asked Wen Sheng to poach half of the craftsmen in this workshop.

In this catastrophic year, there was almost nothing that food could not solve. These workers were easily bought by grain and moved to Heishui Town with their families.

With the addition of skilled craftsmen, the paper mill was quickly set up.

In addition to the recruited craftsmen, Wei Peng also transferred a group of students from the school to work in the paper mill.

In the early stage, these students mainly followed to learn the technology and started playing.

In the later stage, they will take on the task of developing new types of paper. After all, they have received systematic education, have a certain culture, and are loyal and reliable.

"My lord, everything is ready for the paper mill now, do you want to start making paper now?"

Jiang Zuo was the leader of this group of paper craftsmen, and was appointed by Zhang He to be in charge of the paper business. Under his management, the paper factory was ready and was waiting for Zhang He's order to start work.

"Master Jiang has worked hard!

I need a stronger and more durable paper at the moment, and I would trouble you to make a few samples first to have a look.

"

Then Zhang He put forward some requirements on the quality of the paper, and communicated with Jiang Zuo for a long time.

Zhang He took out a handful of Ling sweet potato vine leaves from the space and handed them to Jiang Zuo.

"You try to add this leaf to the paper as well."

These sweet potato vine leaves are his anti-counterfeiting method.

The leaves of Ling sweet potato vines have aura, and in Zhang He's eyes, they are not very valuable. They are just a by-product of growing Ling sweet potatoes.

Jiang Zuo looked at the verdant sweet potato leaves in front of him, and smelled a unique fragrance from a distance.

"I'll go back and try!"

Jiang Zuo took the sweet potato leaves and left quickly.

After this period of busy work, the grain warehouse has been built, but the food stamps are not even seen.

It is not suitable for this matter to continue to be delayed. Since the conditions are not yet met, you can make do with handwritten food stamps.

The news has been released. It is said that Mr. Zhang, who is benevolent and righteous, cannot bear to see the food that everyone has worked so hard to be stolen or robbed.

Mr. Zhang deliberately built more than ten large warehouses within the walls of Heishui Town to store food for everyone.

And there is no fee for a copper plate, and you can retrieve the grain you have stored at any time.

After the residents of Heishui Town heard the news, they rushed to tell each other, and they all planned to store the grain in Mr. Zhang's newly built warehouse.

As for Mr. Zhang's character, no one in Heishui Town doubts it now.

According to Wazi who came back from the school, Mr. Zhang is more reliable than his own parents, so he is completely trustworthy.

After getting the news, the tenants in Heishui Town all carried their own grain into Heishui City with their hands on their shoulders.

These tenants are also thinking in their hearts, if they keep the food at home, they will be eaten by snakes, rats and ants, and they must always be on guard against refugees coming to plunder.

As long as it is sent to the city, these losses will be borne by the Zhang family, and it has nothing to do with them.

Since food stamps have not yet been produced, only handwritten real-name receipts can be issued for grain collection.

Because there are not many anti-counterfeiting means for this bill, it can only be made into a real name for the time being.

That is to say, how much a family saves can only be collected by him in the future, and cannot be traded.

At the paper factory, after Jiang Zuo's trial and error, the first batch of barely qualified paper was finally produced in the spring of the second year.

This kind of paper is thicker, stronger and more durable, and can be folded repeatedly, showing a light green color.

Especially on this kind of paper, there is a vague aura floating out.

It's just that it has aura, which is not comparable to other ordinary paper.

Now that there is paper, and the engraving boards for printing food stamps have already been carved, the first batch of food stamps in Heishui Town has finally been printed.

The denominations of these food stamps are divided into 1 catty, 2 catties, 5 catties, and 10, 50, and 100, which is more convenient for change.

The paper of these six denominations of food stamps is relatively stiff. In addition to marking how many kilograms, Zhang He's head portrait is also printed on it.

It made Zhang He himself feel quite embarrassed.

From now on, food stamps can be used freely in the three towns under Zhang He's jurisdiction.

At present, the tenants are just collecting the food stamps honestly, and have not thought about using food stamps instead of gold and silver for any transactions.

For this reason, Zhang He ordered all shops in the town to use food stamps to pay their bills. For some in-demand items, food stamps must be used to sell them.

Slowly cultivate tenants' usage habits, and eventually tenants will like this convenient transaction method.

After all, even if it is gold and silver, it is still quite heavy in your arms.

However, it is said that spring has begun, and there is still no official rain this year. If the drought continues like this, there will not even be much water in the Heishui River.

After several months of hard work, Fugui and Fat Hu finally built a rough canal, barely able to irrigate part of the cultivated land.

At the same time, several zombie-powered water trucks have arrived in the two towns to help tenants fetch water and fight drought.

Fugui and Fat Tiger recruited the refugees who built the aqueduct on the spot and let them settle down to farm in the spring.

After dealing with these miscellaneous matters, Zhang He went to Lule City again.

The Mo family, his custom-made magic circle, has been refined.

When Zhang He arrived, he paid off the remaining 7,000 yuan, and finally got two sets of formations he wanted.

Although the Mo family's charges were expensive, they had nothing to say about their attitude towards taking them. Third Master Mo took Zhang He to find an open space outside the city, demonstrated repeatedly, and taught Zhang He how to operate the formation.

He didn't give up until Zhang He could easily and freely set up the formation and control the formation.

Moreover, while the Mo family made two large formations, they also gave Zhang He a set of small formations as a gift.

This small magic circle is relatively small, with only twelve three-inch-high formation flags, so it is easy to carry around.

When camping in the wild, it is very convenient and safe for personal use.
