Chapter 752: Bamboo in the chest
Although the charity banquet has long passed, it is not that no one has donated, although it is not as many people donating and donating so much money as on the day of the charity banquet, but it is true that there are still donations one after another, because the Charity Federation is not far from Lijiazhuang Rongfu County, so many people who come to talk about business with Lijiazhuang will also donate, and the businessmen who have only recently come to Chang'an After hearing about the grand event that has just passed, they sigh and want to donate and then brag, yes, among the rich people in Chang'an today, If you haven't donated money to go out, you are embarrassed to say hello to people, the Charity Federation has indeed been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, although the daily Charity Federation receives not many donations, sometimes only dozens of times, sometimes there are hundreds of thousands, but the accumulation is not less, at the beginning Princess Yuzhang and Wu Cao There is a psychological gap, but then carefully calculated the accounts, found that it seems to be very good, compared to Princess Yuzhang and Wu Cao, the accounts of the Charity Federation are very excited, Because this means that the Charity Federation can continue to run smoothly even if there is no charity banquet, some of these accounts are from Xishan, some are from Huangzhuang, and some are down-and-out scholars, most of them have not experienced the feeling of counting money and hand cramps in Furong Garden, otherwise there would be no psychological gap, but today, they seem to really feel the legendary grand occasion.
"Fifty thousand? What did you say? Do you want to donate 50,000? ”
"Are you sure you want to donate 50,000 yuan?"
The accounts of the Charity Federation were stunned one by one, as if they wondered if they had heard it wrong, 50,000 yuan! That's a lot of money! Not to mention that the charity banquet has long passed now, even on the day of the charity banquet, no one donated 50,000 yuan!
"It's only 50,000 guan, it's not worth mentioning for our Qinghe Cui clan!"
No wonder it was 50,000 as soon as it was shot, it turned out to be Qinghe Cui's family! Just when the bookkeepers were excited and shocked, a series of carriages came outside.
"We, the Boling Cui clan, also donate 50,000 yuan!"
"We, Jiangdong Zhao, donate 50,000 yuan!"
……
The entire Charity Federation was silent, and everyone was stunned, because this was really shocking, so many families came at once today, and all of them were 50,000 yuan as soon as they were shot, why did so many families suddenly come to donate? And it's 50,000 shots, why is that? What the hell is going on?
"Quick, hurry inside, please!"
"Look at the tea!"
"Go and report to the princess! Report to Mrs. Wu! ”
A group of accountants hurriedly invited the principals of these families to go inside to see the tea break, and at the same time sent people to report to the Rongfu County Mansion to report the news, this time it was hundreds of thousands of yuan, and it appeared so suddenly, these accounts were frightened, they even dared not take it, in the Rongfu County Mansion, Wu Cao and Princess Yuzhang were flipping through the account books and the reports of the charity hospitals, Li Lizhen and other daughters were embroidering clothes on the side, although there were embroidered girls in the house, but they still wanted to make two small clothes for the children by themselves.
"There's nothing wrong with the accounts, right?"
Li Lizhi asked with concern while embroidering slowly, and Princess Yuzhang smiled.
"There is no problem, the operation is normal, and the opening of the charity clinic is also very smooth, maybe within a few years, the charity clinic will be opened all over Datang!"
Wu Cao closed the account book and smiled.
"The Charity Federation has just opened, so no one dares to reach out for the time being, but after a long time, it is impossible to say, after all, most people are greedy for millions of dollars, and it is difficult not to be tempted."
Princess Yuzhang pouted slightly.
"Is anyone really greedy for money? This is a charity, and if you are greedy for it, you are not afraid of retribution? ”
Wu Cao said with a smile.
"For the sake of money, I don't know how many people are willing to take risks, not to mention, the money is right in front of us, so, as my grandfather said, corruption is the biggest problem we will face."
Princess Yuzhang snorted.
"Don't be a princess, who dares to embezzle charity funds, this princess will definitely be sent to the government and punished them heavily!"
Wu Cao raised his eyebrows and said.
"Only by killing one can you set an example, and the first corruption case you find is directly killed, maybe you can deter it!"
Although she is still a little Lori, and she has not experienced those difficult and humiliating days, Wu Cao's heart is still quite ruthless, but in this life, Wu Cao only has Li Yong in his heart, so he will only be ruthless to outsiders, Li Lizhi stroked her lower abdomen as if soothing, and said with a smile.
"This girl is so murderous."
Wu Cao pouted.
"Even being greedy for charity money is definitely not a good thing, and it is more than innocent to die!"
On the one hand, Princess Yuzhang felt that what Wu Cao said was reasonable, and she felt that the killing was a little too ruthless, and when Princess Yuzhang hesitated, a maid hurriedly walked in.
"Princess Qiyu, the people from the Charity Federation came to report that there are many big families who have come to donate, and each family has said that they will donate 50,000 yuan!"
The maid said respectfully, if it was before, Princess Yuzhang would have been shocked when they heard it, but after experiencing the charity banquet, they would not be shocked when they heard this again, they were just curious, why did these families suddenly have to donate, and each family said that they would donate 50,000 yuan? Fifty thousand! Even for the big family, it is not a small amount, they donate three or five thousand yuan, or even donate ten thousand yuan, it is still reasonable, but donating 50,000 yuan at once is indeed too unexpected, Princess Yuzhang was surprised.
"Why are these big families so enthusiastic about donating money? And as soon as it was shot, it was all 50,000 yuan, wouldn't it be simply because of kindness? ”
Wu Cao just thought about it for a moment, pursed his lips and smiled.
"These families came to Chang'an to take the sea route to the Western Regions, and now these are in the hands of the grandfather, they are thinking of a way to show favor to the grandfather!"
Princess Yuzhang opened her mouth slightly in surprise when she heard this, and said incredulously.
"Just to show goodwill, you donated 50,000 yuan?"
Li Li said with a smile.
"Although 50,000 guan is a lot, it is not worth mentioning compared to the trade route to the Western Regions, organizing a fleet to go to the Western Regions, and coming back may be 550,000 guan and 10 50,000 guan!"
Princess Yuzhang hesitated when she heard this, if those big families just donated money to do good deeds, then she could naturally accept these donations calmly, but these big families donated not to do good deeds, but to ask Li Yong, then she couldn't make decisions without permission.
"Since these family donations have ulterior motives, then in my opinion, these donations cannot be collected!"
Princess Yuzhang groaned, and Wu Cao smiled.
"Whether we can accept it or not, let's just ask the grandfather if it is, and let the grandfather get the idea."
A family of 50,000 guan, although I don't know how many there are, how can there be hundreds of thousands of guan, this is not a small amount, if it is considered an adult favor, it is definitely a big favor, Li Lizhi nodded slightly.
"Also, Lang Jun should look at the records that Cheng brought back in the study at this time, you go over and ask, see what Lang Jun says, if Lang Jun says to accept it, then accept it, if Lang Jun says he can't accept it, then don't accept it."
Princess Yuzhang hurriedly put down the account book in her hand after hearing this, got up happily and smiled.
"Sister, then let's go to the study and ask grandpa."
Wu Cao also stood up, and it was more attractive to see Li Yong than to read the account book here, Li Li said with a smile.
"Okay, you can go."
Li Yong didn't go out today, he knew that the news of Cheng Zhihe's return was fermenting in Chang'an City, and now he didn't know how many people were paying attention to him, so he didn't go out, but stayed at home to see the detailed record of Cheng Zhihe's voyage, although Cheng Zhihei wrote in detail, but in Li Yong's view, it was still very vague, if people who were not familiar with it were absolutely confused at first glance, fortunately, Li Yong's geography in his previous life was good, so according to Cheng Zhihe's record, he could have a clear route in his mind, although he was already very familiar with geography, But Li Yong still watched it with relish, although Cheng Zhihe's writing was not very good, but he could still feel the thrilling voyage from Cheng Zhihe's record, this adventure was really nine deaths! Cheng Chuhei was able to come back alive, in addition to his own martial arts and the navy's rich sailing experience over the years, it was really lucky, this is a detailed and thrilling adventure! Li Yong was flipping through the logbook of Cheng Chuhei, and suddenly found that bright colors appeared outside the glass window, Wu Cao came to be very normal, Yu Zhang came to his study for the first time, could it be that something happened to the Charity Federation? Li Yong couldn't help but think about it in his heart, Princess Yuzhang, who came for the first time, walked in with Wu Cao, blinked with big eyes and looked around very curiously, anyway, there were no outsiders here, Li Yong didn't get up, he leaned back comfortably, and said with a smile.
"Why are you two here?"
In the past, Li Yong saw Princess Yuzhang and symbolically greeted her, but now Li Yong is too lazy to stand up when he sees Princess Yuzhang, if he is known by the Yanguan, he must be sprayed to death, but Princess Yuzhang likes it very much, Li Yong is not polite to her, and he is explaining that he treats her as his own, when can she pinch her shoulders for pouring tea, Wu Cao directly pulled out the chair and sat next to Li Yong, if it wasn't for Princess Yuzhang, she wouldn't even bother to pull the chair, and sat directly on Li Yong's lap. Princess Yuzhang also did the same, directly pulled out the chair and sat down, and said with a smile.
"Grandpa doesn't know yet, today many people from the big families came to the Charity Federation to donate, and all of them were 50,000 yuan."
While speaking, Princess Yuzhang also stretched out her jade hand and gestured, it was cute, Li Yong was slightly stunned when he heard it, and then smiled.
"It's 50,000 in one shot? They're really generous! ”
Wu Cao smiled: "How can they be so generous? This is clearly a request, saying that it is a donation, but its purpose is not to know the sea route to the Western Regions? ”
Princess Yuzhang nodded.
"We don't know whether we should accept it or not, so we came to ask Grandpa and ask Grandpa to come up with ideas."
Li Yong couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
"Accept it, everyone has sent it to the door, how can there be any reason not to accept it? Besides, people donate money to help the children, not to us, what qualifications do we have to refuse? If you don't accept it, it's not good to spread it, our Charity Federation is open to accept donations to treat children, but we don't accept donations when people come to donate, isn't it suspicious? ”
The reason is such a truth, and at least hundreds of thousands of yuan, how many children can be saved? Even if there are already millions of yuan, Princess Yuzhang is a little reluctant, but these big families donate money with ulterior motives, and they can't make Li Yong embarrassed, Princess Yuzhang pouted slightly.
"But they have ulterior motives! We know that they have ulterior motives, but we still accept their donations, isn't that exactly what they want? ”
Wu Cao pursed his lips and smiled.
"Then let's pretend not to know that they have ulterior motives, so we pretend to be confused and accept it, anyway, it's a donation, and they can only eat Coptis dumbly, and they can't say anything about their suffering."
As the saying goes, the mouth of eating people is soft, the hands of people are short, and you have collected hundreds of thousands of yuan but turned your face and didn't recognize people, is this good? I didn't expect Wu Cao's girl to be a little black in her lower abdomen, Princess Yuzhang blinked her eyes and asked.
"Is this good?"
Li Yong said with a smile.
"Just take it, don't take away their kindness!"
Princess Yuzhang asked with some surprise and some apprehension.
"Do you really want to take it? Do you really pretend you don't know? ”
"Actually, I didn't want to keep it a secret from them at all."
Li Yong pointed to the desk and smiled.
"I'd like to put these charts and the adventures of the heirs here in the library."
Wu Cao and Princess Yuzhang listened to this, their faces opened slightly, and they looked surprised.
"What? Want to put the charts and Cheng's notes in the library? Wouldn't that be visible to all? ”
Li Yong nodded slightly.
"This is what Cheng Chusi and his subordinates have summed up with nine deaths, it is the wealth of the entire human race, and this should not belong to me alone, so I think he should be put in the Imperial Library for the benefit of all the Tang people!"
At this moment, Wu Cao and Princess Yuzhang's hearts were very complicated, because they understood how precious these charts and notes of Cheng Chuhei were, and it was precisely because they understood that they were even more emotional, they were both a little reluctant, and proud of Li Yong's heroism.
"The family will definitely organize a fleet to go to the Western Regions according to the charts and notes! No, not only these families, but more people will definitely venture to the Western Regions! ”
Wu Cao said, Li Yong nodded with a smile.
"That's good! The Western Regions is very big, the whole world is very big, I just hope that more Datang people can go out. ”
Wu Cao pouted slightly.
"But they're going to rob us of our money!"
In Wu Cao's view, all the gold and silver seas overseas should belong to their family, and every penny earned by those families who went to sea was snatched from them.
Li Yong said with a smile.
"What's the use of having more money? If there is a lot of money, it is just a pile of scrap copper and rotten iron, and it has no meaning. ”
Princess Yuzhang covered her mouth and smiled.
"When those big families find out, will they be angry? The family donated 50,000 yuan, but you put the charts and notes in the library! ”
