Chapter 393: She Was Prescient
It was really said by Jiang Ruanyan, and when he was in the morning the next morning, Jiang Ci had already sensed that something was wrong with the surrounding atmosphere.
When the emperor finished talking about the previous recital and asked the ministers in the court if there was anything to report, the henchmen of His Royal Highness exploded in an instant.
Among them, Lord Zhang, who was the leader, took the lead.
"Your Majesty, Weichen has something to say, Jiang Ruanyan of Jishitang is really too unusual, the victims have traveled thousands of miles here in order to have a place of refuge, but look at her, what has she done."
Jiang Ancestral Hall has become accustomed to this, these adults, since the young lady took over the disaster victims, has not stopped.
Now that the victims have settled down, they are still unrelenting, just like the group of fruit growers.
"She asked the hungry victims to build houses, they didn't even have decent clothes, but Jiang Ruanyan still let them work in the snow, this year's heavy snow is so serious, but she uses them as coolies, and under the banner of the emperor, this is really too unusual."
However, the emperor was tired of hearing such words, and he didn't want to say anything while sitting on the sidelines.
But Master Zhang will definitely not give up on this, and continued, "Recently, I have discovered that there are countless cracks in the hands of the victims, which are all traces left by the winter work. ”
Jiang Ci sneered, the victims have a hole in their hands, and I haven't seen you come to help.
"And I heard that there are redundant apartments built on the construction site, and Jiang Ruanyan actually plans to sell it! It's all built by the disaster victims, and it's no different from the lives of the people, Your Majesty. ”
When Lord Zhang said it, he almost burst into tears, and the Jiang Ancestral Hall on the side had no choice but to speak.
"Don't worry about Lord Zhang, Ji Shitang did this to ease the tension in the treasury, we all know that at the beginning, when the treasury has not yet been withdrawn, Ji Shitang has already begun to use his own money to help the victims, and the audit of the previous two days is enough to prove that Boss Jiang is not corrupt."
When Jiang Ci spoke, his eyes kept staring directly at this Lord Zhang.
"But we all know that the food, clothing, housing and transportation of hundreds of victims cost money, and Boss Jiang settled them here, everything had to start from scratch, which naturally cost a lot of silver, not to mention that when these victims were fleeing, some of them were infected with stubborn diseases, and they needed to spend money to treat and take care of."
"Of course, if you are infected with a stubborn disease, you have to be treated, but have you ever thought that if you don't let the victims work in the cold and snow, there will be two fewer sick people?"
Mr. Zhang asked unrelentingly.
"Then according to Lord Zhang's meaning, that is, throughout the winter, we should bring the victims close to the city, and then provide them with food and clothing indefinitely, and then let them start working again when spring begins, so Lord Zhang, are you sure that the treasury will last so long?"
To be honest, as a man, Jiang Ci looks down on Lord Zhang, who is crying and pretending to be compassionate.
"But don't be nervous, Lord Zhang, this is just an analogy, when the victims enter Beijing, the physical reports are still kept, if you are interested, you can look at it together with the subsequent work arrangements."
Jiang Ci paused for a moment, "Those who are sick and have been well treated and are still in good health, so we will allow them to work." ”
"Alright, you two don't quarrel." looked at the people below, and interrupted them impatiently.
"Zhang Aiqing, what you said, I have already sent someone to find out, it is a contract that Jiang Ruanyan signed with them before, and I didn't force them when I signed the contract at that time, everything was voluntary by the victims, you don't have to worry about this."
"Yes, Your Majesty." When Lord Zhang heard the emperor say this, although he couldn't swallow this breath in his heart, he didn't dare to say half a word more.
Jiang Ci didn't even bother to look at him, it wasn't that he hadn't reported this matter to everyone before, basically, if he wanted to make any decision on the construction site, he would come to greet the emperor first.
However, these people always like to do nothing, and they don't let go of this little thing, and the wounds in the hands of those victims are not injured when they are working.
It's that they are used to going to the fire immediately after washing their hands in winter, and slowly their skin is getting drier and drier before they crack.
When Jiang Qing found out, he had already sent someone to concoct the plaster, and now it was basically almost good, so this big man came to mention it.
Jiang Ci was seriously suspicious of him, and he didn't say it before, because he was afraid that the emperor would let him be in charge of this matter and let him pay for the medical expenses.
"Speaking of which, spring is about to begin, and it is time for the gentlemen in the palace to start a new round of teaching." As soon as the emperor mentioned it, several gentlemen from the Hanlin Academy immediately bowed respectfully.
"Speaking of which, so many families have come into the capital at once, and their children should also go to school." However, the emperor changed his mind and did not ask about their homework arrangements.
Several teachers and the ministers under the court were a little confused, Jiang Ci knew that this was a signal from the emperor to him, and hurriedly stood up.
"Your Majesty, Jishitang has applied to you to prepare for the opening of the school."
"What? Opening a school? Master Zhang couldn't help it for a while, and blurted out.
Lord Xue, who had always been calm in front of him, couldn't help but look back at the Jiang Ancestral Hall.
As a henchman of Gu Gangqian, Lord Xue would not make a mistake like Lord Zhang on weekdays, most of the time, he watched silently from the sidelines, and only came up to say a word when necessary.
But today, he couldn't help but start paying attention to the problem that Jiang Ci said.
After a pause, Jiang Ci continued.
"Weichen believes that young children are not able to work, and letting them play in the city like this will cause trouble, so it is better to set up a basic school to teach them some basic subject knowledge, which consumes their energy at the same time, and can also better manage, these children who are at a naughty age."
"What Master Jiang said is extremely true, and the minister has always been worried about this." But what I didn't expect was that Jiang Ci had just finished speaking, and this Lord Xue followed up and spoke, and what he said was still supportive.
"The people of this disaster are pouring into the capital for a while, this is definitely not only a problem of population increase, there are also many hidden dangers that need to be eliminated, and the previous minister is also thinking about it."
Lord Xue said, still looking worried.
"The adults among them can arrange more jobs, looking at Boss Jiang's arrangement before, I know that she has already taken this part into account, but their children, Weichen has always been worried."
Why did Jiang Ci think this was so awkward.
"The minister has always felt that everyone is equal among the people, but it can't be stopped, this is something that children from the countryside have carried a stock market since they were young, plus the family has no conditions to send them to school, and there is no one to teach them at home, naturally, etiquette and conversation are different from others."
After Lord Xue said this, Jiang Ci suddenly understood what he meant.
"At this time, a large number of victims and children poured into the capital, and at the same time, they also brought the atmosphere of the market into the capital, and it is very simple to treat their injuries and improve their physical condition, but to improve their cultural literacy. But it's difficult. ”
Jiang Ci heard it, saying that everyone is equal, this is clearly biased.
"But Boss Jiang was very prescient, and she expected this early, so it seems that it is a good proposal for Weichen to run a school at the construction site at this time."
These words made a big man in the Jiang Temple feel disgusted.
Lord Xue said and bowed to the emperor, but while bowing, he secretly passed a look to Lord Zhang from the perspective that others could not see.
Lord Zhang immediately stepped forward.
"What Lord Xue said is very true, but there is a worry below, we all know that the market gas brought by this villager is not rising for a while, but has been passed down from generation to generation, although this child is in school, but their parents have no way to change it."
Lord Xue slowly straightened up, his expression serious.
"We all know how important the environment is to a child's development, it is very likely that he has already formed this habit before entering school, is it still necessary to leave school at this time?"
It seemed that Master Zhang was dealing with Lord Xue, but in fact, the two of them were stumbling on the Jiang Ancestral Hall.
"Then let the idle adults go to school together, and there is always nothing wrong with teaching them some cultural etiquette."
But after saying this, Lord Fang behind them interjected again.
"Lord Xue's words are bad, as the saying goes, the country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change, so I'm afraid it's not necessary for adults to enroll."
Jiang Ci only felt funny after listening to it on the side, the three of them were all people under Gu Gangqian, it was almost no secret, was it necessary for the three of them to act like this?
"If you don't want adults to go to school, the environment will not improve, so what's the use of children going to school? Could it be that Master Fang still expects the children to go home and teach themselves to be elders after they finish learning? What is this system? Master Zhang was angry as he spoke.
Lord Xue didn't hurry back and explained.
"Master Zhang, have you ever heard a sentence that makes you shameless to ask, since you don't understand physiognomy, what is there to be ashamed of when others ask for advice, is it just because he is his own child? If it were me, I would be more proud. ”
Lord Zhang angrily flicked his sleeves and turned around unwilling to deal with Lord Xue anymore.
"Having said that, Huang Weichen is still a little worried, and I hope that Lord Jiang Ci can answer my questions."
Jiang Ci sighed, he couldn't be presumptuous in front of the emperor, so he had to turn around, "Lord Xue, please speak." ”
"After the children of the victims enter school, there is naturally nothing wrong with learning etiquette, but although this school was built on the construction site, it is also a school specially built for the disaster victims, which is the first case in the country."
His eyes became sharper and sharper.
"Coupled with the apartment arranged by the boss, it can be said that these victims have taken root in the capital, and there is no problem living here for generations."
Lord Xue said leisurely.
Remember the royal pet: the permanent address of His Highness in those years
