Chapter 144: Kindness
"In that case, how about leaving this matter to you?" Yu Zhi suddenly proposed.
"Me?" Lin Qingwan paused, and then reacted, Yu Zhi should be afraid that she would be bored in this Heavenly Master's Mansion, so he proposed it.
Lin Qingwan pondered it carefully, anyway, he was idle in this Heavenly Master's Mansion, so it was better to find something else to do.
She smiled and nodded, "If you are willing to believe me, then it will be fine." ”
"If I believe in you, I will leave it to you. Yu Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, and asked his subordinates to hand over some account notes in the mansion to Lin Qingwan, and told her, "Although my mansion is small, there are a lot of expenses, and these are up to you to judge the reduction, and other item-by-item matters are up to you to decide." ”
After Yuzhi finished speaking, he returned to his desk and put the sketch in his hand into the drawer, his hand shaking obviously.
It seems that he feels that since Lin Qingwan didn't ask any questions, some things can be pretended not to have happened.
Yuzhi lowered his head, lifted his pen, and copied the poems in the book, Lin Qingwan saw this, and Yuzhi seemed to be the silent Yuzhi again. In this way, she had nothing to say, and sat quietly aside, waiting for the next person to bring her the account book, and she also looked through it carefully.
Since Yuzhi asked her to do this, she had to do it well, because this was also what she wanted.
As soon as Lin Qingwan sat like this, she sat in the middle of the night, and she didn't react until Yuzhi got up to remind her.
She looked out the window at the cold color of late spring, and then looked at her account book, many abrupt expenses had been crossed out by her, and the money was enough to support two or three years of food.
It's just that she was a little curious, there were often gold, silver and jade given by the emperor in this account book, and they were all in batches, so she asked Yuzhi: "The emperor often rewards you with things?"
"Yes. Yu Zhi responded.
"Occasional rewards, why are there so many? Lin Qingwan asked.
"It's not just me, it's all the officials in the palace. After Yu finished speaking, he looked at the sky outside, "It's late, and it's still cool in late spring, so go back early." ”
Lin Qingwan heard what he said, so he had to put down the account book and leave.
Along the way, Lin Qingwan kept thinking about what happened in these days, first, there were a lot of beggars and it was difficult to make a living, and second, the court officials gave a lot of rewards, and anyone with a discerning eye could see whose guilt it was.
"Miss, you're back. ”
The bronze sparrow's voice brought her back to her senses, but she felt that it was not something she should consider. For now, let's take revenge.
"Hmm. Lin Qingwan answered, and went back to the room directly.
In the next few days, Lin Qingwan was taking care of various matters related to the distribution of food.
Until the last moment, when she was about to prepare the food distribution location, she was in a tangle.
It is certainly not appropriate to put it in front of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, but if it is too far away, it is not suitable either. There was no place to put it nearby, she thought about it, so she was ready to discuss it with Yuzhi, but she didn't expect Yuzhi to still be in the palace and might not be able to come back for the time being. In the end, Lin Qingwan finalized the place where the beggar was encountered at the last rally.
The next day, the family took the car to the steamed bread shop that had been arranged in advance, pulled a bucket of steamed bread, hurried to the place, and hung up a notice for distributing steamed bread.
Lin Qingwan was very worried in the house, after all, this was planned by himself, and he didn't know what the reaction was.
It wasn't long before the family members suddenly came back to say goodbye.
Lin Qingwan was watering the flowers, and when he heard that the family had returned, he seemed to be a little wrong after calculating the time, so he ran to the hall with a hanging heart.
As soon as I entered the door of the hall, I heard the family's advice to Yuzhi.
"Oh, no one came over at first, but after someone came over and ate one, the steamed buns were all over in less than half an hour. Jiading scratched his head, and then said, "There are still many people waiting over there, and we are running out of steamed buns, and we don't know what to do, so we are back." ”
Yuzhi bowed slightly, caught a glimpse of Lin Qingwan's figure, and walked up to her and asked, "What do you think?"
"This ......" Lin Qingwan put all Fang Cai's words in his ears, and he was a little dazed for a while, who knew that the effect was so good.
Yuzhi didn't speak, just looked at Lin Qingwan quietly, waiting for her reply.
Lin Qingwan thought about it, this steamed bun is not enough, so he has to buy more. There are not a few people who sell steamed buns in the capital, so it is better to book with those poor families, and they can solve their embarrassment and survive, isn't it wonderful.
Lin Qingwan cleared his throat and said this idea to Yuzhi: "Why don't we buy the steamed buns of those poor people, so that they can live."
When Yu Zhi heard this, he naturally would not refuse: "Very good, then leave it to the next person to negotiate." ”
When Lin Qingwan heard this, he felt that there was no problem, and was just about to leave, when he suddenly remembered the matter of official taxes. If officials are not honest and honest, and they deduct more from taxes, then who can guarantee that these little families will not take a cut of it?
She felt uneasy, turned around and said, "Why don't you let me go, those little guys, if they are a little unreliable, they will harm those people." ”
"How do you go?" Yu Zhi looked straight at Lin Qingxuan.
Lin Qingwan said thoughtfully: "Of course, I came forward to negotiate with those people and shopkeepers. ”
Yuzhi's brows furrowed slightly: "It's all people looking for you outside." ”
Lin Qingwan was dumbfounded.
"If you want to go, you have to disguise. Yuzhi understood that no one could stop her from what Lin Qingwan was going to do, so she said so.
The sun is starting to get hot in late spring, and the afternoon is always quite lazy. Lin Qingwan chose this time, changed into men's clothes, dressed up well, and had some manly demeanor. It's just that the face is too delicate, and I have to wear a mask, which is the best way to disguise.
Tongque had to follow behind Lin Qingwan, and she had no choice but to take Lin Qingwan with her.
Lin Qingwan first walked around the vicinity of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, and every household was not short of money, only one looked a little dilapidated. Lin Qingwan decided to start from here, and cautiously entered the door and asked, "Is anyone there?"
"Who?" An old man walked out tremblingly, and Lin Qingwan hurriedly stepped forward to support him.
"Old man, I'm here to do business with your family. ”
Lin Qingwan looked at the scene in the store, the wall skin had already fallen off, and the tables and chairs were also speckled and worn out, looking very dilapidated.
"What business?" the old man was helped to sit down, and there were still some cobwebs on the edge of the stool, and it seemed that the shop had been deserted for a long time.
"Old Mother, how did you get here? A man hurriedly came to the back of the store, and when he saw two more people in the store, he was a little stunned, "Childe, girl, are you here for dinner?"
"No, I'm here to do business with you. Lin Qingwan stood up and said bluntly, "Our Heavenly Master Mansion needs a certain amount of steamed buns every day, I see that your family is quite suitable, so I will come and take a look." ”
"Heavenly Master's Mansion?" the man looked a little cramped, and he smiled rather awkwardly, "Our family is not a big store, I'm afraid we can't meet the needs of your mansion." ”
"What is the maximum amount you can provide per day?" Lin Qingwan narrowed his eyes.
"At most, there will be twenty cages, and if my wife comes back, thirty or forty cages. The man said.
"Enough. Lin Qingwan nodded, "If you think there is no problem, then take a look at this contract and sign it again." ”
The man took the contract prepared in the bronze sparrow's hand, and when he looked down from above, there was an uncontrollable stunned look on his face.
"Why did you find our family?" the man asked curiously.
"Because the Heavenly Master's Mansion originally wanted to use those steamed buns to help some beggars, and thought that wouldn't it be better to order some steamed buns from poor families?" Lin Qingwan took a deep breath, "It can save one person, it's one person." ”
The man was obviously shocked by this, and his hands holding the contract trembled a little. The wrinkles on his face deepened because of the smile, and he hurriedly agreed: "Okay, okay, I'll sign it!"
The man happily pressed his handprint and took the reservation money from Tongque's hand. The old man seemed to have heard the good news, and his old face was full of joy.
When Lin Qingwan walked out of this person's house, for some reason, there was a slight pain in his heart.
She walked through one house after another, and all of them behaved like this. In the end, the amount needed by the Heavenly Master's Mansion was booked enough, but it was just that those families suffered, and they had to go to many places every day to get steamed buns.
Lin Qingwan looked around quite tiredly, and before she knew it, she had already walked to the suburbs before she got things done. Tongque was also too tired, and when she saw a restaurant not far away, she said to Lin Qingwan: "Miss, why don't we find a place to rest first." ”
Lin Qingwan saw that it was getting late, and she didn't want to agree, but her stomach screamed very untimely, and in desperation, she had to agree: "Then let's go." ”
"The restaurant is in front, it's not far away!" "The bronze finch came to the strength at this time, and walked extremely fast.
Lin Qingwan sighed, walked to the restaurant, and the little maid at the door greeted him: "Childe, you want to ......"
"Let's eat!" Bronze Sparrow smiled, "Give us delicious meals, all your signboards here are up." ”
"Okay, sit down. The servant beckoned them to sit down.
Lin Qingwan first felt that it was wrong, if she wanted to eat, she had to take off the mask, which was never advisable.
"Hey, wait, do you have a room here?" Lin Qingwan waved his hand and called the little servant.
"Naturally, Childe comes with me. The little servant bowed slightly and led them to a four-seater room, "Childe, please drink tea first, and the dishes will be served in a while." ”
"Got it. Lin Qingwan looked out the window indifferently, the sky was already a little dark, but fortunately, there were not many people patrolling here, and she didn't need to worry.
Thinking so, the dishes came up, Lin Qingwan kept an eye on it, and only after the dishes were all served did he take off his mask and start.
This is a bitter copper sparrow, Lin Qingwan can't move chopsticks, she is absolutely untouchable.
