Chapter 742: The Battle of Weng and the Son-in-law
You Li Er loves the people like a son, am I just cunning and can't take it? Li Yong said with a smile.
"The saint does love the people like a son, but the minister is not extortion, these donations are from the rich families in Chang'an and Luoyang, they donate money on the one hand to do good deeds, on the other hand, it is just for fun, and the money donated is just to let them go to the Qinglou a few times less, and put on a few banquets! After raising these donations, the ministers can be regarded as taking them from the people and giving them to the people. ”
In fact, Li Er and they also understand these truths, these donations come from rich households, but they are all donated voluntarily, naturally there will be no complaints, if it is really extortion, not to mention others, Wei Zheng would have already sprayed, Wei Zheng said with a smile.
"Take it from the people and give it to the people, that's a good thing!"
Cheng Yanjin laughed.
"Li Yong, didn't you hear? They were all talking about it, thinking that the charity banquet was too enjoyable to hold for only one day, and if they wanted to hold it for a few days, even if they needed to donate money every day to enter the park, it would be no problem! ”
Wei Chigong nodded repeatedly.
"That's true, many people say so, the Hibiscus Garden is so big, they can't get enough of it."
In fact, Li Er also heard a lot of people talking about it in the process of visiting the garden, so Li Er's eyes lit up all of a sudden, the kind of thief who is bright and thief is bright, today he has raised more than 2 million guan in one day, if he continues to hold a charity banquet tomorrow, even if he doesn't raise more than 2 million guan, then more than 1 million guan can always be raised, right? If this is held for a few more days, I am afraid that the annual treasury revenue will be raised, and besides, a charity banquet for ten and a half days and a half is held every year, so wouldn't it be possible to raise 10 million yuan every year? Thinking of this, Li Er was excited, although this money is not from the imperial court, but it is always used by the people! And if you really raise 10 million yuan, you won't need so much money to treat the child! After all, the entire Tang Dynasty can't use up 10 million yuan a year, and Empress Changsun is also shocked and said with emotion.
"There are so many rich people in Chang'an and Luoyang!"
Li Er laughed.
"Since they all hope that the charity banquet can be held for a few more days, then hold it for a few more days, Li Yong, we can't let everyone down!"
While speaking, Li Er still thought to himself, since he can raise so much donation, then it is no problem for him to collect some rent from Li Yong, right? After all, it's a royal forbidden garden, 500,000 a day is not too much, right? If you rent it for ten days, it will be five million, thinking of this, Li Er's saliva is about to flow, although he is the emperor and rich all over the world, but the family has a big business and a lot of expenses, and now there is still a war outside, Li Yong shook his head slightly.
"The Charity Federation will hold this day, and it will not be held again in a short time."
"What? Just hold this day? ”
Li Er was directly stunned, as if he wondered if he had heard it wrong, and Cheng Yanjin shouted directly.
"Li Yong, are you stupid?"
Du Ruhui hurriedly said.
"Li Yong, you have to think twice! Now is the time to keep up the good work! ”
Everyone was anxious when they heard it, two million yuan a day, this is equivalent to picking it up for nothing, and the rich people who entered the park strongly asked to open it for a few more days, Li Yong didn't plan to open it yet, isn't this equivalent to throwing millions of yuan in vain? Li Yong said with a smile.
"I really only planned to hold this day, I am not stupid, and the reason why I only held it for one day was also a deliberate decision, and there is a reason."
Empress Eldest Sun asked with concern.
"Li Yong, do you have any difficulties? The Hibiscus Garden is also idle, and it doesn't matter if it is open for a few more days. ”
Li Er waved his hand and said hurriedly.
"If there is anything difficult Li Yong, just open your mouth, and someone will solve it for you!"
At this moment, what Li Er said can be described as categorical and sonorous, for the sake of these millions of runs, even the king of heaven and Lao Tzu have to dodge aside, Li Yong shook his head and said.
"It's not because of any difficulties."
"Why the hell?"
Li Er stared at Li Yong with burning eyes and asked, and if Li Yong was not satisfied with the answer, he rolled up his sleeves and started his hands.
"You don't understand it, it's called hunger marketing!"
Li Yong said, Li Er and the others looked confused when they heard it.
"What's that?"
Li Yong explained with a dry cough.
"It means to hang everyone, if you let everyone come to visit and enjoy it now, then no one wants to come in the future, every time you feel unsatisfied, then everyone still wants to come next time, although now you can raise millions more for a few days, but this charity banquet has become a hammer deal, and it will be abolished in the future, which is tantamount to killing chickens and taking eggs, so it is better to hold it twice a year, once in the spring, once in the autumn, so that it can be held every year, and the long stream is the long-term way."
Empress Eldest Sun thought for a moment and nodded.
"Sage, the concubine thinks what Li Yong said is very reasonable!"
Wei Zheng also nodded.
"Indeed, the long-term way is to go the long way."
On the one hand, you can get 10 million guan at a time, and on the other hand, you can get 4 million guan every year, how to choose this is simply too easy, although 10 million guan is very tempting, but Li Er and they are all scheming people, even if they are tempting, they can bear it, Li Er said regretfully.
"Since what you say makes sense, then do as you say!"
Empress Eldest Sun said with a smile.
"Why should the saints feel sorry? Hopefully, we can hold it again in the fall, and then twice a year. ”
In fact, Li Er also understands this truth, but when he thinks of 10 million guan, he still can't help but be greedy, and it will be millions of guan every year in the future, thinking of this, Li Er couldn't help but smile, like a treacherous fox.
"Li Yong, it's no problem if you want to continue to hold charity banquets in Furong Garden in the future, after all, it is also to raise funds to help the children, but it's just that so many people who came in have also caused some damage to Furong Garden, and Furong Garden also needs to be repaired, do you understand?"
Li Er smiled, and Li Yong nodded slightly.
"The minister understands, isn't it a long time apart, so I'll repair it!"
Why is it so unpopular? Li Er didn't have a good airway.
"You need money to repair the garden, this is the Royal Forbidden Garden, so I don't ask you for money, but you can get the money to repair the garden, right?"
Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and others had no objections when they heard it, mainly because Li Yong raised too much money, millions a year! It doesn't take so much to treat sick children, and it's normal to spend tens of thousands of yuan to repair the garden, so the emperor's request is reasonable and reasonable, of course, the question is how much money the emperor plans to spend to repair the garden, Li Yong spread his hands, and his face was inexplicable.
"What does this have to do with me?"
Li Er was stunned by Li Yong's appearance, and for a moment, he even felt that this really had nothing to do with Li Yong, Du Ruhui. Fang Xuanling and the others were also a little confused, thinking that Li Yong was too rigid, you raised more than two million yuan at once, even if you are reluctant, why don't you throw out tens of thousands of yuan to give meaning.
"Why doesn't it have anything to do with you? You are holding a charity banquet here, and so many people come in, although it is for charity, but this garden really needs to be repaired, right? Besides, you don't need that much to raise millions! ”
Li Er said bitterly, and Li Yong shrugged slightly.
"Sage, Princess Yuzhang is the person in charge of the Charity Federation, and this charity banquet is also held in the name of Princess Yuzhang, and these donations ultimately go to the Charity Federation, and the minister is just a friendship to help, so this really has nothing to do with the minister."
Li Er opened his mouth when he heard it, and he really didn't know what to say, because what Li Yong said was really irrefutable, although whether it was the Charity Federation or the Charity Banquet, it was Li Yong's idea, and Li Yong was doing it, but if you really want to say it, Li Yong is just helping, Yu Zhang is the person in charge of the Charity Federation, and he is so embarrassed to ask his daughter for money? The dignified emperor doesn't want to be cheeky? Empress Eldest Sun pursed her lips and smiled.
"The saint is also true, the money raised is used for good deeds, how can it be used to repair the garden? Millions of dollars are raised every year, but it doesn't take so much money to treat sick children! ”
Li Er explained, Li Yong said seriously.
"The money should still be used for good deeds, not for other purposes, because this is a donation raised under the banner of doing good, you can't smash the signboard, you can't lose your trust, of course, these donations are not only used to treat sick children, if there is a disaster somewhere! It can also help the people affected by the disaster. ”
Wei Zheng nodded in agreement.
"Sage, the minister thinks that what Li Yong said makes sense, since it is a charity raised under the banner of doing good, it is best to use it for good deeds, and it cannot live up to the kindness of the people, and what Li Yong said is also right, if there is a disaster, you can also help the people affected by the disaster, and it can also reduce the pressure on the court."
In fact, Li Er was just a few million yuan for a while, and after listening to Li Yong's explanation, he also understood that what Li Yong said made sense, anyway, all the money was used on his people, Li Er nodded.
"Okay, this garden will be repaired for you, and you can use it whenever you want in the future!"
Do you want me to owe you a favor? Li Yong said with a smile.
"Sage, not a minister, is Princess Yuzhang."
Princess Yuzhang's heart fluctuated while listening, and when she heard that more than two million yuan had been raised just now, she almost jumped up with joy. Later, she heard that it would be held for a few more days, to raise 10 million runs, she was completely stupid, two million runs, she was already very excited and surprised, she was inexplicably a little frightened when she heard 10 million runs, fortunately, Li Yong said that she wanted to go through the long stream, but it made her breathe a sigh of relief, however, later she heard that her father wanted to fight the idea of this money, she was a little reluctant, although she also felt that she could not use more than two million yuan a year, but after all, this was the money that Li Yong had worked hard to raise, and now when she heard that her father finally did not fight the idea of these donations, she hurriedly smiled sweetly.
"Thank you, Father!"
"Two million and three hundred thousand yuan, plus one million and five thousand yuan, it is three million and eight hundred thousand yuan, and it will be six million yuan if you hold a banquet in the fall, Yu Zhang, you must use so much money to the real place."
Li Er faintly instructed, and in the end, he sighed in his heart, his daughter is even richer than him, the emperor, is there any reason for this? Although Li Yong was confident that he could raise one million guan before, but now that the statistics have raised more than two million guan, even Li Yong himself is a little surprised, not to mention Li Er, Li Yong also knows that Li Er and they are really taken aback, and he doesn't blame Li Er for being so greedy, because more than two million guan came too quickly and easily, aren't you greedy, see that I don't covet you! Li Yong said with a smile.
"Do you want to take a look at the sealed cash box, more than two million yuan, it must be piled up!"
Deliberately, Li Yong must have done it on purpose! Li Er took a deep breath and shook his head again and again.
"Don't look at it, go back to the palace, there are still important things to deal with!"
Just thinking about it is not enough, if he really went to see the mountain of money boxes, he was afraid that he couldn't help but order them all to move away, the eldest grandson queen looked at the bickering Weng and son-in-law with some amusement, especially when she heard that Li Yong finally teased the emperor again, she glared at Li Yong with some amusement, Li Er turned around and left immediately after speaking, he really didn't want to stay for a moment, he was really too greedy, tsk, I really can't stand the stimulation! Li Yong couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and at the same time hurriedly stopped the eldest grandson queen who was about to leave.
"Queen Mother, please stay!"
Empress Eldest Sun said with a smile.
"Do you still want to invite this palace to see your money mountain?"
Li Yong waved his hand and smiled.
"That's my money mountain, not mine, the minister wants to ask the queen if she has an idle treasury, and she has to find a place to store these two million and three hundred thousand yuan."
Empress Eldest Sun smiled when she heard this.
"Aren't you afraid that the palace will secretly embezzle?"
"The queen mother wants to use it!"
Li Yong said very arrogantly, Li Er couldn't help but look back at Li Yong when he heard it, how could he still treat it differently? He can't touch the money, how can the queen use it? Even Empress Changsun was slightly stunned, she was just joking with Li Yong, and when everyone was surprised, Li Yong followed along.
"It's not my money anyway!"
Empress Eldest Sun couldn't help but laugh when she heard this.
"If it's really your money, then Bengong is really welcome!"
Li Yong looked at Wei Zheng and the others and said seriously.
"All the accounts of the funds raised, as well as the accounts of the expenses spent on the treatment of the children, will be placed in the Imperial Library, and anyone can consult and supervise them, and the Imperial History Supervisor of the DPRK and China is also welcome, and urges the Charity Federation to be open, fair and impartial."
Wei Zheng listened and bowed his hand to Li Yong.
"Okay, this is well handled, sage, according to the opinion of the ministers, it is better to let the household department and the imperial history regularly check the accounts of the Charity Federation, in case someone is greedy for charity."
Millions of donations, Li Yong not only threw them directly to the queen, but also directly made the accounts public, Wei Zheng was deeply admired for this, and Li Er bowed slightly.
"Okay, go back and Wei Qing will draw up a charter, regularly check the accounts of the Charity Federation, and then publish it, so that the people who donate money can rest assured."
