Chapter 89: Keep Asking for Money
Li Wei finally decided to give the Ye family 8 million yuan, and he was embarrassed to bargain, because people said that at least 30 million yuan would be invested in the follow-up, and he was not a fool, and he knew that the follow-up 30 million was indispensable after calculating it.
But another problem appeared in front of Li Wei again, Ye Chen only promised to solve the refugees in Liaodong, and did not plan to solve the refugees in other places, which made him a little difficult to speak, people helped him solve the refugees in Liaodong, and he was not obliged to solve the refugees in the entire Youzhou.
But if it is not solved, then it is conservatively estimated that more than 100,000 refugees will pour into Liaodong, what will he do, and something big will definitely happen at that time.
"Ye Xiaoyou, this refugee from Liaodong has been solved, but, but..."
Of course, Ye Chen knew what Li Wei was going to say, but he was not stupid, he would be sorry for himself if he sent it to the door, and besides, this was originally what their government was going to do.
"Lord Taishou, this refugee from Liaodong has made our Ye family hemorrhage, and it is not a big problem, my Ye family has a big business and can afford it, but after this ransacking of the Wuhuan people, where is there any business to do in my Ye family, and where will the money come from if there is no business."
Li Wei thinks about it, it is not easy for the Ye family, especially after the looting of Youzhou, the future business is indeed not good, and many families have also suffered heavy losses, and their consumption power has declined.
"Ye Xiaoyou, it's not that I understand, it's just that this time there is really no way, this time Wuhuan is coming, the entire Liaodong has lost too much, and I don't have the extra strength to do these things, so you are thinking of a way, think of a way."
Li Wei sent Ye Chen to beg, but the identities of the two were there, Li Wei could make concessions, and he could say to Ye Chen in a relatively low tone, but he must not beg him, otherwise this would spread out, and he would not be able to mix in this circle, who called Ye Chen a businessman, if it was a poor scholar from a down-and-out family, Li Wei would not mind begging him.
"Method, what can be done, unless they are also willing to pay, but as a native of Liaodong, I should do more for the people of Liaodong, but why should I sacrifice so much for others."
Li Wei asked Ye Chen to say that there was no way, he couldn't force Ye Chen to accept the displaced people from other counties, they had calculated it for him, if he accepted them all, Liaodong alone would cost 30 million in the future, or at least, if the refugees in the entire Youzhou were accepted, it would be hundreds of millions of expenses.
But Li Wei has no choice but to find Ye Chen, to put it mildly, the entire Liaodong, and even the entire Han are willing to be the wronged leader, and he can no longer find anyone else.
"Why don't I let them give some money, and then you also collect the homeless people who came over there?" Li Wei knew that according to common sense, this request was excessive, but he had no choice but to try.
"Let me declare first, no matter what happens in the end, the people of Liaodong, as long as Lord Taishou gives eight million, I will not care, but other counties can not forget about eight million, the minimum is 10 million, the highest is 15 million, depending on the population of each county."
Li Wei thought about it, this request is indeed not excessive, the entire Youzhou is the least harmed in Liaodong, and at the same time, the displaced people are naturally the least, so Ye Chen's request is very reasonable.
"Then I'll try, Fa Han will discuss with them."
"Lord Taishou can discuss if he wants to, but one thing must be explained, this homeless person can't tell where he came from for a while, so as long as one county doesn't agree, I won't accept all of them, except for Liaodong, of course."
Although the reason given by Ye Chen is very reasonable, this is also his insidiousness, if one county does not agree, then the other counties will not settle accounts with him for the sake of the problem of displaced people, so they have to agree when they are forced to agree.
It's all at this time, Ye Chen is not afraid of offending people, now the power of the Ye family is very strong, if the fight starts, no one in the entire Youzhou will be his opponent, of course, the Ye family still has to keep a low profile, and the more than 30,000 casualties reported to Li Wei also have this consideration.
Li Wei didn't know the bottom in his heart, he didn't know if he could make it up, and the other counties didn't know if he could agree.
In fact, this Ye Chen is not worried, a county order will cost millions to buy in Liu Hong, and it will cost 20 million to buy a taishou, and it is still very cost-effective for them to spend a small amount of money to keep their official position.
After Ye Chen's calculations, a county only needs to make up more than one million, which is much cheaper than the money they paid to buy officials, and this money does not have to be paid by them, such as gathering some big households in the county and using some reasons to ask them to make money, which can make up most of the money.
Li Wei left after reaching an agreement with Ye Chen, and Ye Chen and Wu Xian didn't have to pretend anymore, they both showed treacherous smiles.
"Young family master, do you think they won't accept our conditions?" Although Li Wei agreed to their conditions, Wu Xian still had no bottom in his heart, because if there was no money, then the Ye family's influence would be greater.
"Don't worry about this, they can't afford to have so many refugees." If it is a large number of refugees after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, these officials are not afraid at all, but at this time, the influence of the Han is still relatively large.
"But we can't do nothing, I will let Liu Qi and Wang Tianhammer them build momentum, vigorously publicize this matter, and I am not afraid that they will not give money." This matter had too much impact on the Ye family, and Ye Chen had to be cautious and make sure that nothing went wrong.
"Wu Xian, if all the counties give money, will the Ye family be able to survive this time?"
"Don't worry, the young family master, this adds up to nearly 100 million yuan, which can be used for more than a month, and the cost will not be so big after more than a month, so as long as they give money, our Ye family can still survive."
Wu Xian's words made Ye Chen feel a lot more relieved, he didn't expect the Ye family to be in trouble all of a sudden, which is also the reason why Ye Chen's shop is too big, but although Ye Chen is a traverser, he only knows the general history, but he doesn't know the detailed history.
This Wuhuan has been on the border of Kou all the year round, and the history is not so clear, even if there is Ye Chen, he will not know, after all, he has not studied it specifically.
The next day, Li Wei sent a lot of letters out, some to the counties below, some to the counties of Youzhou, and some to the history of Youzhou, and he also gave the court a recital, and he would not let go of this opportunity to make credit.
Although the merit is not as important as money, it will also have a good reputation in the Qingliu and the family, and many things will be much more convenient.
The counties below are naturally very painful to receive the letter from the Taishou, and there is no way to do it, don't make money for the Taishou, things have come to this point, the Taishou will definitely play the court, and they all know what kind of people the Han Dynasty is, and they wish that the people at the bottom would make mistakes and make money.
Either spend money to eliminate disasters, or go to your official position, and I'm selling to others.
Li Wei knew the relationship between the county and the Ye family, and he didn't ask for it, everyone gave him preferential treatments, besides, the county accepted so many displaced people, if he asked for money from the county again, maybe Ye Chen would stop picking on it.
The rest of the counties received Li Wei's letter, and after careful consideration, they also happily gave money, if they don't give money, they can't do it, the Ye family has spoken, if there is a person who doesn't pay the money, then all the refugees in the family will not accept it, and then they will be besieged.
After reaching an agreement, Ye Chen asked Wu Xian to prepare to receive the displaced people from various counties, in fact, the Ye family was already preparing to receive the displaced people, but the other counties were not so fast, so there was no need to make much action for the time being.
This Li Wei came to Ye Chen as a surprise, allowing him to get more than 100 million yuan, this money allowed the Ye family to temporarily survive the crisis, but the Ye family is still short of money, and the money can only last for more than a month, originally the Ye family's business still had a large amount of income, but now these businesses have been affected, so Ye Chen still has to find a way to make money.
Ye Chen has been busy since he came back in the past few days, and he has no time to pay attention to Zhao Yun and Hua Ningxi, taking advantage of the temporary time, Ye Chen decided to go and see them.
After Zhao Yun and Hua Ningxi came to the Ye family, they learned about what the Ye family had done, and they admired Ye Chen very much, but they didn't expect the Ye family to take on such a big responsibility with the strength of a family.
This is in strong contrast with being an official, the government doesn't care about the life or death of the people at all, but the Ye family puts the ordinary people in a very important position, the Ye family provides them with too many things, it turns out that the tenant farmers of the Ye family are living very well, and it has only been a year to go from not having enough to eat to being able to eat enough and have a surplus.
Zhao Yun walked in Xiangping for a few days, and the news he got reflected that the Ye family had a good reputation, and he really did things for the people, and he knew everything the Ye family was doing.
Not to mention the rest, I don't know how many people have been saved by recruiting displaced people alone, and for the sake of the people of Liaodong, they chose to fight with the Wuhuan people, and even took risks to save the people captured by the Wuhuan people.
And Hua Ningxi was also very busy during this time, what was she busy with, it turned out that her father taught her to read and medicine since she was a child.
Although the healer is a lowly profession, she is very respected when she comes to the Ye family, and Hua Ningxi can use what she has learned to help others, which makes her very happy, and she goes to treat the wounded and sick every day, and some tenant farmers will also go to her when they are sick.
She knew a lot of things from these patients, and knew a lot of things why Ye Chen did them, which made her like this place all of a sudden, where she could make friends, be respected, and help others.
Zhao Yun went out to find out and returned to the Ye family, he didn't go to find Ye Chen, but went to stay in the guard camp, he liked the guard camp very much.
He likes this group of men, likes this strong army, and likes the training mode of the guard battalion, what surprised him is that the soldiers of the guard battalion are so well paid, one person is a soldier, the whole family can be fed, and a soldier in the guard battalion can feed at least five people.
This also made Zhao Yun understand why they supported Ye Chen so much, and why they had such a high combat effectiveness. By observing the training methods of this army, Zhao Yun thought a lot, depending on some decisions.
