Chapter XVIII
Not long after, Bai Li Xu and Yin Bai came to the flower hall and saw Bai Li Feng talking to Steward Cui in the flower hall. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Hey, my aunt is busy now?"
Cui Guan greeted the two of them in advance: "The master just had something to tell me." Now that the talk is over, the villain will retire. If Young Master Yin Gongzi has something, he can tell his master directly. ”
Seeing that Steward Cui left, Bai Li Xu said to Bai Li Feng:
"My nephew just went out with them and saw a lot of homeless people outside, but they didn't have a place to live, and I wondered if we could do something for them."
Baili Feng has a good reputation outside, and he is familiar with it, and Baili Xu also has a good heart.
Baili Feng looked at him with interest and asked, "Then what do you want to do?" ”
"The government has already distributed relief food to them one by one, and for the time being, it is barely enough for the displaced people to survive, and we are not too showy in this regard. But I think there are very few places for them to live, and the temples in Wangyun City can't accommodate so many people, and the existing sheds are too late, and they consume too many materials. I'm wondering if we can take out the few empty storefronts that we don't use for the time being and let them live in them temporarily. After all, the cold wave is coming, and there is no place to live, and the homeless people are easy to freeze to death. ”
After all, Bai Li Xu is a teenager, although he wants to do something good, but his ideas are always simple.
In doing so, he sent the homeless people into the city. The entry of a large number of displaced people into the city will inevitably affect the originally orderly and stable life in the city. If you are not careful, it will even cause ****. If the identity of the displaced people is not clearly checked, it is possible to put the spies of neighboring countries into the city, and if an enemy country takes the opportunity to disperse the soldiers into the city, it is very easy to capture Wangyun City. At that time, it will be a sin of losing the country.
But these Baili Xu should not have thought of it for a while, so Bai Li Feng felt that it was necessary for him to talk about the pros and cons of this with Bai Li Xu, but he should also be careful not to directly deny his opinion.
"I have some empty shops under my name, but I can lend you what you want to do. But did you consider any other follow-up questions? ”
Bai Lixu was puzzled: "What else is the problem?" ”
"There are no more goods in the empty store, but there are many shelves left. If, as you say, let the homeless live in, then what about these shelves?
These things are placed inside to occupy a place, and they can be easily destroyed by the homeless; And if it is taken out, the handling and storage of these shelves require additional manpower and financial resources. What's more, we don't have enough places to store it either. Have you thought about all of this? ”
Hearing this, Bai Lixu was slightly embarrassed.
"And that's just one of them. Second, the layout of the store was originally for business, but now it is really cramped if people live in it. Besides, there is no suitable bed inside, and if you sleep on the floor, the cool air on the ground is also very hurtful. Is it necessary to prepare straw mat beds for displaced people? Where to find these things in a hurry? Have you thought about all of this? ”
It wasn't until after listening to Baili Feng's analysis at this moment that Bai Lixu realized that the good idea he originally thought of in a hurry had a lot of hidden problems.
"My aunt thinks very thoroughly, I haven't thought about these things, it's because I haven't thought about it. But what can we do for them? ”
Bai Lixu also knows that soup soup is the main thing the government does, and they are not good at making a big effort in this regard, so as not to be suspected of being in the limelight and provoking the dissatisfaction of local officials. She has dealt with these sub-officials for many years, so she naturally understands their bottom line.
Baili Feng pondered intently, and a previous plan appeared in his mind, and a flash of inspiration: "I know that there are some places that can be used, but it's just ......"
"Just what?"
"It's just that these places can't be easily used at will, and if you need to use them, I'm afraid you have to report to the government."
"What place is my aunt talking about?"
Yin Bai rolled his eyes and asked, "What Aunt Feng said, but those sealed mansions near the outskirts of the city?" ”
Bai Li Feng was a little surprised by Yin Bai's observation, after all, the current location of that street can be regarded as remote and desolate, and it is difficult for ordinary people to notice there, not to mention Yin Bai, a foreigner who has just arrived in Wangyun.
But she didn't show it on her face: "It's still Xiaobai who looks carefully." In fact, they are all empty houses that have not been lived in for a long time. If these sealed houses can be opened, then the homeless people have a lot of accommodation, and these houses have both rooms and cooking places, although they are not a little dilapidated for a long time, but they can still live in a simple tidy. What's more, for the victims, they just need a place to live temporarily. When the weather improves, they will naturally go back. ”
But Yin Bai was a little curious: "Why were these mansions sealed?" I think those houses are big and magnificent, and the original owner should also be a famous local person. ”
Baili Feng was in a trance: "They used to have glorious days, but the flowers were not red for a hundred days...... These houses are involved more than a decade ago. ”
Thirteen years ago, the Jin army entered Yan, because the people of Yan resisted at that time, so the war was fought very badly. But it's a pity that Yan was only a small country at that time, and it was a corner of peace all the year round, so it didn't expect to be suddenly attacked by a big country, and it was destroyed in just a few months. After the victory of the Jin army, the battle site was almost empty, especially some local famous families, and they fled and scattered, so there were many mansions they left behind.
These mansions cost a huge amount of money in the early stage, so they cover a huge area and the daily expenses are extremely high, so even if there are officers and soldiers stationed here later, no government or rich people are willing to live here, so these magnificent mansions are empty here, because they are afraid of being destroyed by the people, so most of these houses are sealed.
Now that so many years have passed, these houses are already a little dilapidated, and no one will be willing to buy them again, but it is possible for the government to loosen its mouth and let these houses be opened, and then the homeless people can live in them.
Bai Lixu was very happy to get this suggestion, because he could go to Li Hua, his father was a general stationed in the border, and the government should listen to what he said.
Thankfully, the homeless people moved into the old houses that had been sealed.
These old mansions that were sealed were all scholars of the year. A large mansion, attached to the houses where the servants lived, occupied most of the street. There are three mansions, belonging to three major families. Except for one of the Tu family's mansions, which General Li did not agree to open, the other houses became a refuge for these displaced people.
Those houses are huge. Even after so many years, most of the furniture items inside are still there, but those stone and mud stuffed things are still there. And they took the clothes they had been given, and looked for a house to live in. As long as there are tiles on the top of the head, you can see the figures of the displaced people next to each other. Because they were afraid that the homeless people would make trouble, a few officers and soldiers were left outside each house to guard them.
