Chapter 647: Raising Money
Listen to me, the prince just said that he is willing to give us a plaque, but everyone must do their best for the affairs of Daocheng, "Shen Jiawan is the head of the wealthy businessmen in Huacheng.
So what he said had a certain weight, and since he said so, the others naturally had no objections.
"Master Shen, you take the lead, you donate us first," one of the younger sons spoke.
Bai Zhi has been silently observing everyone here, although she doesn't know what people do, but one thing is certain, they are all rich people.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be here.
Shen Jiawan thought about it for a long time and stretched out a slap: "How about I donate 50,000 taels?" ”
Bai Zhi almost fainted when she heard this, and the big head only donated 50,000 taels, and the people behind it would definitely not cross this number, so it definitely wouldn't work.
"Master Shen, Daocheng was almost destroyed, you need to start from scratch, I'm afraid the silver money you need to use will not be less, are you sure you only donate 50,000 taels?" Bai Zhi couldn't help but speak.
Originally, she didn't need to open her mouth about this matter, but 50,000 taels was too little.
"Hmm...... Then I'll think about it again, "The Shen family doesn't know how much to take for a while."
Originally, he didn't plan to do these superfluous things, but once he was drinking tea with others, and he heard that there was a prince in Huacheng, and now he was worried about building a dam and Daocheng.
As the prince, they were sent here, and what they had to do was definitely not small, so they started to think about it and gathered so many businessmen together just to raise some money.
But he didn't want to donate a lot at once!
Bai Zhi saw his hesitant expression and seemed to understand his thoughts: "Master Shen, is the plaque personally written by the prince only worth 50,000 taels?" ”
Saying this, Shen Jiawan trembled, and immediately got up and knelt on the ground: "The prince asks for forgiveness, the prince personally gave the plaque is priceless, how can it be measured with silver money?" ”
"In that case, how much should you donate?" Originally, she thought that she could raise some here, and she would pay for the rest herself, but the leader only donated 50,000 taels, so she couldn't get much silver in total.
So she was a little anxious to speak and rushed, but she didn't expect to startle Shen Jiawan.
With so many people present, he couldn't lose this person, so he gritted his teeth: "How about 500,000 taels?" ”
The donation of 500,000 taels of silver is equivalent to a small half of his family property, which is already his greatest determination.
Bai Zhi raised her eyebrows, 500,000 taels, although it is already a lot, but for the overall construction of Daocheng, it is only the tip of the iceberg.
It depends on how much the businessmen behind donate.
"We also have 500,000 taels,"
"We are 400,000 taels,"
……
The merchants who came were all wealthy businessmen, because the big head donated so much, and the opening in the back was not much less.
Yu Zimo took the pen and wrote down the amount of money those people wanted to donate one by one, and when he asked them for silver, they regretted it.
It was the middle of the night, and they should have gone back to rest, but because everyone was very enthusiastic, they didn't return home until dawn.
"I'm tired all night, you two hurry up and rest! I'll go and see how many there are in the reconciliation book," Yu Zimo happily closed his mouth.
happily walked away with the ledger.
Duan Xun shook his head helplessly: "Now our problem is finally solved!" ”
Bai Zhi roughly estimated: "The money donated last night is indeed a bit much, what should we do if we can't use up the rest?" ”
But he didn't want to open his mouth: "Then fill the treasury and hand it over to the emperor, and it is most appropriate for him to dispose of it." ”
No matter when and where, he thinks about this country and the emperor who is high above.
"Okay, then let's try to make Daocheng a little better, and you will hand over the rest of the money to the treasury, and maybe you can get the emperor's appreciation!" She suddenly felt that Duan Xun was so witty.
The rest of the silver taels don't matter what they do! I'm afraid that someone will say behind his back, all handed in, neatly, worry-free and effort-saving.
"I really didn't expect that a flower city would be able to make so much money, and the people of Daocheng should be grateful to them in the future, only if they were the only ones, they would have no home," the matter was solved, and each of them was very happy.
But there are also people who are disappointed.
Because of the donation, Shen Ru was originally going to perform to help the fun, but he was stuck in the audience alive, not to mention dancing to leave an impression on the princes.
As a result, he didn't even show his face, he miscalculated too much, he was wronged in the house, and he cried to death.
"Okay, okay, Ru'er, don't be sad and sad anymore, it's all your father's fault for this matter, you were going to go out soon, but you were disturbed by his donation."
"Mother, do we really have a chance in the future? But now we can't even see the face of the prince, "It's an unprecedented thing that two princes came to Huacheng at once."
"As long as they are here, we will have a chance, don't be afraid, as long as we wait for the opportunity, we will always be able to find a way out, besides, your father has made so much effort, there is no credit and hard work, so my mother is sure that you still have a chance," Mrs. Shen's eyes were like torches, determined.
In the past, he wanted to find a suitable family for his daughter, but he couldn't find a suitable one.
But now that she finally has someone who can enter her eyes, it is difficult to climb high.
No matter how difficult it is, she has to try!
Shen Jiawan raised so much money for them at once, so he has been in the prefect's mansion for a long time recently.
Yu Zimo pulls Shen Jiawan every day to understand the customs here, as well as the general appearance of Daocheng before.
It is impossible to restore it, but they can only try to settle the people and give them a good home.
Bai Zhi also followed them to the scene, and I have to say that when I entered the gate of Daocheng, it was full of mess at a glance.
Houses that have not been washed away by the water are almost a minority.
So if you want to restore, that's an impossible thing.
"Duan Xun, Yu Zimo, I have an idea here, let's discuss it together after lunch, and see if it can be used!" Bai Zhi thought that since they had already been rushed like this, she would simply re-plan.
Duan Xun knew as soon as he heard it that he must have an idea.
"Zhi'er, do you have a good idea again, just tell me about it!" He asked, expectantly.
She continued to be busy with the things she was doing, she had been busy recently, and she had been busy ever since she thought of planning things for Daocheng.
So after the afternoon, the two of them quickly looked for her together: "Zhi'er, you said before that you had something to discuss with us, but now you can talk about it." ”
Bai Zhi reintegrated the plan she had drawn for a long time on a piece of paper, and then said to them: "Look at this paper, maybe you may not understand what is on it, but after I explain it to you, you will definitely understand." ”
"Okay, then let's talk about it, it just so happens that we don't have a clue now," Yu Zimo discussed with Shen Jiawan for several days, but did not come up with a result.
