"If everyone gives them money, isn't that going to empty our Wang family?" The old lady shouted.

"The money used for the disaster victims, Hu'er doubled it for her mother to earn back!" Wang Laohu said with an oath.

Wang Biao, who was on the side, immediately came out to play a round and said, "Old lady, please don't take it seriously. That's not what Childe meant. ”

"My tiger's ability, a few pounds and a few taels. I know it very well in my heart," said the old lady. The implication is that I don't take this to heart, just listen to it.

Unexpectedly, Wang Laohu said again seriously: "Hu'er will double the earnings, please mother to fulfill it." Wang Laohu's words are exquisite.

The old lady understood that Wang Laohu was serious. That's it, if you don't earn it back, anyway, the Wang family will be defeated by him.

Wang Laohu got the consent of the old lady, and immediately instructed He Bo to open a warehouse to release grain, on the other hand, he kept discussing with the rich businessmen, he ran the big cloth merchant Li family, the big porcelain merchant Guo family, the big pawn Wu family, Mu Zhai and other more than a dozen local famous Wang clans, the results are all the same, the capital turnover in hand is not effective, the grain depot is empty, etc., there is no heart, but there is no force. No matter what, they are all friends of wine and meat, and they all come around like bees when they have benefits, and they can't send any unearned things.

By the time I arrived at the county office, it was already dark. At night, the general county government is not hospitable, but Wang Laohu is not an ordinary person, the county official is an old man in his fifties, surnamed Zhu, who usually gets a lot of benefits from the Wang family, how can he not see it now? Besides, Wang Laohu usually comes to the county government to do some pointing, to meaning. He has only good for himself, so why not see him?

Wang Laohu followed Wang Biao and a few family members, and when they arrived in the inner hall, Wang Laohu and Wang Biao entered. Zhu Xianling and Wang Laohu sat separately. After shuddering with each other. Wang Laohu went straight to the point: "Now there is a large influx of disaster victims in the county, I wonder if Uncle Zhu can make arrangements?" ”

Zhu Xianling was immediately stunned, and immediately said with a smile: "Yes, these disaster victims, due to natural disasters, fled their hometowns to this county, as the county parent official, what's the matter, I should also be well settled." The words changed again: "I heard that Wang Xian's nephew is already distributing food to the victims today, and each person still has money to receive, he is really a great benefactor of the disaster victims, a model for my county!" ”

"Don't dare, Uncle Zhu said with a smile," Wang Laohu hurriedly stopped, "I'm just waiting for a temporary emergency, and it's only a few days of slowing down, and the key to appeasement is also for the county government to do." ”

"By the grace of God, we should share their sorrows. The government also did not have a surplus of food available. We have already reported to the court, and there should be food allocated soon. Zhu Xianling said.

"That's a good idea." Wang Laohu said.

In the county office, Zhu Xianling and his wife sat at the table, and Zhu Xianling said: "Recently, there has been a natural disaster in the neighboring county, and a large number of victims have poured in, and I have reported it to the court, I believe that there will be food coming down soon for disaster relief, and when the time comes, we can make a fortune again." Madame smiled: "Master, this time I asked for seventy-three points with the rice merchants, and last time I let them take four, I don't know how much less I earned." ”

"Madame Takami." Zhu Xianling said again, "Today, that Wang Tiger has distributed food to the victims, you say that this person is not strange, he usually harms people and does not do things." Is there any conspiracy to want him to do that? ”

Mrs. said: "Wang Laohu is a well-known bully and bully, how can he be so kind?" There must be something good for him. ”

"I think he also wants a piece of the disaster relief food." Zhu Xianling said self-righteously.

In the Wang family's compound, after a busy day, everyone was a little physically and mentally exhausted. Steward He reported today's accounts to everyone: "Today, we distributed a total of three stones and two buckets of food to the victims, and distributed 10 yuan of disaster relief funds, all of which are recorded in the accounts. ”

"Old lady, please take a look." Steward He said.

The old lady waved her hand and said, "In this matter, Hu'er will be in charge of this matter in the future." ”

Steward He answered "yes" and handed over the account book to Wang Laohu.

Wang Laohu took the account book, which densely recorded the names of the victims, and he didn't look at it much, and handed it back to Steward He. "Tomorrow there may be more victims," he said. Uncle He, only grain will be distributed tomorrow, and copper coins will not be distributed. "Steward He should go.

"Today, everyone has worked hard, Uncle He, Wang Biao, all rest early."

And they should have gone down.

Wang Laohu also said goodbye to his mother.

Still after the fourth watch, Wang Laohu, Xiaochun and Xu Wan got together.

Wang Laohu said: "I promised Miss Xu, and I have done it." ”

"Did you do it all?" Koharu took the lead, "The third thing doesn't seem to have been done yet!" ”

Xu Wan didn't speak.

Wang Laohu said: "I have done it. ”

"Did it?" Koharu and Xingwan were stunned for a while......

I saw Wang Laohu pick up a basin, scoop some water, and then said to the two women: "Please take a look at the girl." Xu Wan walked to the basin step by step. She saw a bright moon in the basin dangling in it.

Wang Laohu did it.

In one day, Wang Laohu distributed food and relief money to the victims of natural disasters, and plucked the moon. Xu Wan knew that Wang Laohu in front of her had a different feeling, although she couldn't tell what it was? But she believes that this Wang Laohu is not the one who robbed her in the first place.

"Did Miss Xu accept me as an apprentice?" Wang Laohu said.

Xu Wan did not answer.

In fact, after learning from the teacher last night, Wang Laohu basically mastered the method of making tofu, and the tofu made this day was faster than before, so he could rest earlier.

In front of the Wang family's compound, Wang Laohu, Steward He, Wang Biao and others were busy distributing food to the victims. The number of victims was relatively large, but there was no chaos, and they lined up in a neat line to receive food one by one. Among the crowd were gray-haired old men, women and children, and able-bodied people who had been forced to flee from their hometowns due to the floods. In the past few days, they have been living in the south of the county seat, relying on Wang Laohu's relief to spend the day, they don't know what the flood will recede, and they don't know whether Wang Lao Ye will continue to help so many victims.

Not far away, a few people were pointing and pointing, like rich people. It turned out to be Guo Jin, the son of the Guo family, a great porcelain merchant, Wu Zhilin, the son of the Wu family, Mu Zhai, Mu Brother Zhi, and rice merchant Zhang Chengqian and others. They looked at Wang Laohu like a monster, and then at the victims. Zhang Chengqian said: "I'm afraid this Wang Laohu has a bad brain, otherwise how could he do such a loss-making business, haha......"

Brother Mu looked at the poor victims coldly, and sneered: "These poor ghosts, I'm afraid that they are going to eat this tiger poor, and in a few days, the tiger will become a cat, and it is a sick cat." ”

Guo Jin and others also echoed each other. Wu Zhilin said: "The Wang family has a big business, I'm afraid these poor ghosts can't eat him, they will only eat thin." If you really want to eat the poor, I am afraid that you will have to eat for a year and a half, and then there will be more than 100,000 victims. ”

"Is that good?" "Haha......" The rich kids then laughed.

"Why don't we give this tiger some food?" Zhang Chengqian said.

"How?" Everyone said in unison.

Zhang Chengqian whispered a few words in their ears, and everyone laughed again, "Okay, Zhang Chengqian!" ”

In the past few days, except for Wang Laohu, no other merchants have joined the ranks of relief. There was no news from the government, only that it would be distributed as soon as the food for the court arrived.
