Chapter 450: Discussion
Returning to the secret guard to find the rented house, Lin Wan'er didn't say anything when she saw Yuzhu bring the two children back to take care of them, but asked everyone to start preparing soup kitchens, and most of the food she brought was placed in the barracks, so now she can only rely on the help of rich merchants in the city.
Later in the evening, Lin Wan'er discussed with her subordinates at home the time and location of the soup kitchen, etc., and went to Jiang Yi again, preparing to let him take action as well.
Looking at Lin Wan'er, who came to the mansion again, Jiang Yi had a headache, and now he couldn't determine his identity, and he could only treat people like princesses: "What does the princess have to say?" ”
Lin Wan'er directly clarified the intention and asked him to gather all the rich businessmen in the city, she had something to order, Jiang Yi's heart was reluctant, and her face also showed an embarrassed expression: "Princess, it's not that the lower officials are unwilling."
It's that most of the merchants in the city have strange tempers, and the lower officials don't have much contact with them privately, so I'm not sure if anyone will come over, so why don't you send out a few greetings first, and wait until the number of people is determined before anything else? ”
This is obviously unwilling to find someone by herself, Lin Wan'er can't see his thoughts, she hooked the corners of her mouth slightly, and her tone was cold: "As the parent official of the people, in the face of so many suffering people, you are indifferent, forget it, now that I have proposed a solution, do you still plan to ignore it?"
Lord Jiang, do you think that if this matter is reported to the emperor, will your black gauze hat still be kept? ”
Jiang Yi's face changed and changed, his eyes suppressed anger, the woman of unknown origin in front of him actually dared to threaten him, he really did nothing in this matter, but it didn't mean that any unknown person could threaten him.
The person who went out to investigate has not come back, Jiang Yi's face was gloomy, and he finally had to agree, after he sent Lin Wan'er away, he dropped several teacups in the house to calm down, and then came to the Chamber of Commerce in Fenglin City, and found the president Bai Jiarui, and the momentum around him was still very depressed.
Bai Jiarui was about to go to the Chamber of Commerce to be busy, and when the servant said that Taishou was waiting for him in the main hall, he had to put down the work in his hand for the time being, and raised his eyebrows suspiciously after entering the room: "Master Jiang, what's wrong?" ”
Jiang Yi has been with a cold face since he came in, and the subordinates who served him tea were so nervous that they didn't dare to speak, Bai Jiarui sat opposite him, and rarely saw Jiang Yi so angry.
"I'm here today for something I need your help with." Jiang Yi let out a long sigh of relief, knowing that he shouldn't be angry with others, so he tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart.
"It's really my honor that Master Jiang still needs my help." Bai Jiarui smiled slightly: "What do you need me to do, just say it, I will do my best." ”
"That's right." Jiang Yi directly told Lin Wan'er about it from beginning to end, not only directly said that Lin Wan'er pretended to be a princess, but also said that her plan to deal with refugees was whimsical, and the words were all dissatisfied with her: "This time she asked me to gather you all, it is very likely that you will contribute money and efforts to solve those homeless people, after all, I haven't seen how many people she brought over, and used the things you worked hard to save on those untouchables, isn't that a waste." ”
"That's what my lord said." Bai Jiarui understood what he meant, and echoed: "As a woman, it is not good to stay at home, but she comes out to show her face, this is originally a shame for the world, and thinking about saving the homeless, it is simply a dream, don't worry, adult, I am naturally on the side of adults." ”
Jiang Yi vomited the bitterness in his heart, and his heart was a lot more relaxed, after confirming that Bai Jiarui was an ally, he hesitated for a moment and said: "Although I am not sure if she is a princess or not, the jade pendant in her hand is real, what is going on still needs to be investigated, and it can't be too heavy." "If she really came to do things on behalf of the people in the capital, wouldn't they be too guilty.
"Don't worry, my lord, I'm measured." Bai Jiarui's eyes darkened, and after sending Jiang Yi away, he found a time to gather all the old lords in the Chamber of Commerce together.
Two days later, those masters finally found time to get together, Jiang Yi took Lin Wan'er to the Chamber of Commerce, and the people he sent out in the past two days didn't hear any news about Lin Wan'er, which was really very suspicious.
After coming to the Chamber of Commerce, Jiang Yi directly introduced Lin Wan'er's identity to Bai Jiarui as Princess Yining, his intention was to push Lin Wan'er to more people, and when her identity was exposed, more people would naturally feel disdain for her.
There are about a dozen people who came to attend the Chamber of Commerce today, and when they came, they almost understood the purpose of this meeting, because they were divided into several different camps because of their different views.
After waiting for a while and not seeing anyone, those rich businessmen who had a good relationship with Jiang Yi and Bai Jiarui began to complain: "What kind of person is this, they said they wanted to meet us but they didn't come for a long time, those refugees are already very good when they have something to eat and a place to live outside the city, and they still want to bring people in, it's ridiculous." ”
The people on the other side were puzzled: "Didn't you say it was a princess?" It's also reasonable to come and settle refugees, but to be honest, I don't know when it will be the end if it goes on like this, so it's better to support it if it can be solved properly. ”
"She said that if it's a princess, it's a princess, then I'm still a prince, can't you think about it, if it's really a princess, the emperor is willing to let her come to such a chaotic and dangerous place?
Besides, the money is earned by us with hard work, and the grain is also grown by ourselves, so why should we share it with others, I think she is just uneasy and well-intentioned. ”
Because she has a good relationship with Jiang Yi, she naturally knows Lin Wan'er's suspicious identity, and continues to complain in the puzzled eyes of others: "It's not only Fenglin City that there are refugees, and other places are not necessarily more serious, why did she come here, don't refugees think it's strange?" ”
The others were silent after listening, and at this time, Lin Wan'er, Bai Jiarui and Jiang Yi came over, everyone consciously quieted down, listened to Bai Jiarui's introduction, and looked at Lin Wan'er, as well as the jade pendant on her waist.
To be honest, if someone hadn't mentioned it just now, no one would have doubted Princess Lin Wan'er's identity at all, because there was really no sense of disobedience at all.
After the introduction, Lin Wan'er looked around and said slowly: "I invite everyone to come over today, mainly because there is one thing I want to ask you for help, everyone has seen that there are many suffering people stationed outside Fenglin City." ”
