Chapter 469: Fundraising (1)
The next day, Yuxi thought about it in the house for a long time, but he couldn't think of any good way to come out. Hearing the cry of the jujube, Yuxi came out of the study.
After feeding the child, Yuxi thought for a while, and went to the front yard to visit Huo Changqing with the jujube. When he walked into the yard, he saw Huo Changqing basking in the sun in the yard.
Seeing Yuxi, Huo Changqing said with a smile: "Why did you personally bring the jujube over!" Now teasing jujube is one of his few pleasures.
Yuxi handed the jujube to Huo Changqing and said, "Uncle Huo, I have something I want to ask you." "Huo Changqing's experience is much richer than that of her and Yunqing, and there may be a good way.
Huo Changqingru heard this and asked, "Is there something difficult to encounter?" Seeing Yuxi nodding, he said, "What's the matter?" If you can make Yuxi feel embarrassed, it must be a big deal.
Yuxi said Yunqing's current situation: "The imperial court can't pay pensions, and the soldiers already have complaints. But now there is not much money in the account, and the fold is written, like sinking into the sea. "The court can't come out with so much money, so naturally it won't respond.
Huo Changqing said: "This thing is not easy to do. "Being the leader of this Yucheng is not as beautiful as it is. But Huo Changqing already knew this.
Yuxi snorted and said, "But if you don't want to solve it, I'm worried that He Rui will follow the old path of Marshal Qin." "If you really can't help it, even if you know how to quench your thirst, you can only do this thing.
Huo Changqing asked, "Do you have any good ideas?" Yuxi has always been resourceful, and Huo Changqing felt that he should be able to think of a way.
Yuxi shook his head and said: "If there is a difference of 30,000 or 50,000, I still have a way, and I will not withdraw this gap of millions." "No matter how she can, she won't be able to make millions a year.
Huo Changqing pondered for a moment and said, "Don't worry, just think about it slowly." "That's what he said, but Huo Changqing knew very well in his heart that this matter was very difficult to do.
Yuxi was not disappointed, she only came this time with the mentality of giving it a try. If it were so easy to find a way, Marshal Qin would not have been forced to go that way.
Huo Changqing asked, "The children of the Salesian Academy, how is it now?" Although Huo Changqing did not go out, he was also clear about what was happening outside.
Yuxi said: "It's all settled. However, the more than 500 children in the Salesian Home, plus the dozens in the villa, add up to nearly 600 people. With so many children, the expenses are too great, and I can't hold on for a long time. So I asked He Rui to write an excerpt, hoping that the imperial court would allocate the money. ”
Huo Changqing has long seen through the current imperial court: "The gap in military spending is solved, and the Salesian Institute is not a problem." ”
Yuxi also knows this reason, but where is the gap in military spending so easy to solve. At the moment, he smiled bitterly and said: "The court can give a little is a little!" This feels really bad, it is obviously the money that the court should allot, but I have to ask these people three or four times.
Huo Changqing didn't want to talk about this topic either, because he couldn't talk about it, so he came out: "When my body is more relaxed, I want to select a group of children with martial arts talent from the Salesian Institute to cultivate." "This serious injury has greatly damaged his vitality, and it will take at least two or three years to recover. And even if he raises it, it is no longer appropriate to follow behind Yunqing to protect him.
Yuxi didn't object, but said, "I'm afraid that Herui won't agree." "If Huo Changqing can cultivate more people, it will be beneficial and harmless to Yunqing.
Huo Changqing felt that this was not a problem, and said, "You don't have to worry about it, I will tell him about Yunqing." "There are too few people around Yunqing who need to be used, and we still need to cultivate more henchmen.
Back in the backyard, Yuxi went to the study again, drew a picture and handed it to Xu Wu, the drawing was a wheelchair, "Let the craftsman do it according to the drawing, and when the wheelchair is ready, Uncle Huo won't have to be trapped in the house in the future." "I'm irritable, and I'm slow to recover.
Xu Wu looked surprised and said, "Madam, is this what you came up with?" With this thing, it is much easier to enter and exit, and the stepfather does not have to be trapped in the house.
Yuxi smiled and said: "Where can I come up with such a complicated thing, this thing has long been available in the capital, I just rely on the gourd to draw a scoop." If she hadn't seen Huo Changqing basking in the sun in the yard today, she wouldn't have thought of it.
Xu Wu smiled: "Madame can remember it so clearly, and it is also very powerful." After saying that, he hurried out with the drawings.
Yuxi picked up the pen and wrote a letter, but it was torn up again halfway through writing. You have to solve this matter yourself, and it's useless to find anyone.
Wu Kuo received a portrait sent by Yuxi on the way, and was very surprised to see a man painted Wu Kuo, and only after reading Yuxi's letter did he know what was going on: "This Mrs. Yun, you're really welcome!" If this person is really a merchant in Jiangnan, as long as he is willing, it won't take a few days to know the details of this person. The point is, why does Han think he is willing to help!
Wu Shun said: "Uncle, if you want to cooperate for a long time, you should sell Han's favor." "With this favor, business will be easy to talk about in the future.
Wu Kuo handed the portrait to Wu Shun and said, "It is estimated that she relied on this to dare me to do things for her." This woman is interesting. ”
Wu Shun knew that his uncle knew.
At this time, Wu Xiaomao, another close to Wu Kuo's body, hurriedly walked in and said, "Uncle, Jiang Nan sent a letter saying that his wife was seriously ill. Uncle, we have to go back quickly. "The head wife of the Wu family, Yu, has not been in good health, and her condition has worsened in the past two years.
Wu Kuo's face changed, and he said, "Prepare the horse." "I was fine when I went out, but I didn't expect to get seriously ill when I went out. This place is far away from Jiangnan, and it will take half a month to get there even if you hurry up, I just hope that his mother can save the day this time.
On the Zhao family's side, on the sixth day of Fei's conversation with Yuxi, Zhao Huan personally came to the door to ask to see Yuxi. This kind of thing still needs to be discussed by his family who is in charge.
Yuxi smiled and said, "It's finally here." "This is the person who can really make decisions, if you don't come to make decisions, Yuxi doesn't want to see them.
Zhao Huan walked into the living room, bowed to Yuxi, and said, "I've seen Mrs. Yun." Zhao Huan was wearing a bamboo-blue robe, and his hair was tied with a sunken wooden hairpin, and he behaved modestly and politely. He doesn't look like a businessman, he looks like a scholar.
Yuxi was also very polite, and said with a smile: "Uncle Huan, please take a seat." After saying this, he instructed the maid beside him, "Prepare tea." ”
Zhao Huan looked at it and felt very weird. It's not that chrysanthemum tea is bad, it's just that it's the first time he's encountered it when he uses chrysanthemum tea to entertain guests.
Yuxi explained with a smile: "In the midsummer season, drinking some chrysanthemum tea can beat the heat. "In fact, she doesn't have top-notch tea here, so it's better to use chrysanthemum tea than to take second-class tea to Zhao Huan, who is used to drinking good tea. At least chrysanthemum tea, appropriate to the occasion.
Zhao Huan didn't expect Yuxi to be so straightforward, and said with a smile at the moment: "Madam has a heart." After taking a sip of tea, Zhao Huan put down the teacup and said, "The last time the insider returned from Yunfu, he told me what Mrs. said. Since Madame understands medicinal materials and knows the market, I won't say anything about it. Madam, the price of ordinary medicinal materials can only be reduced by one and a half percent at most, and those precious and hard-to-find medicinal materials can only be reduced by three percent at most. "It's a real headache to meet someone who knows how to do it.
Yuxi also knew that this was roughly the result, and he would not object or agree, but just said something that was not right for him: "Has Uncle Huan heard about the Salesian Hospital?" Seeing Zhao Huan nodding, Yuxi sighed and said: "Ahem, there are more than 500 children in the Salesian Hospital, and more than 20 of them are sick. If it goes on like this, I won't be able to hold it anymore......" At this point, I didn't continue to talk about it. Instead, he picked up the white jade teacup and took a sip. Other teas can't be drunk, but chrysanthemum tea can still be drunk.
Zhao Huan naturally heard the meaning of Yuxi's words and expressed his willingness to donate.
Yuxi gently put down the white jade teacup in his hand and said with a smile: "Uncle Huan, if you can call on the rich businessmen of Xinping City to raise donations, it will be a great merit." "If Zhao Huan takes the lead, everyone else will definitely give this face, and then they will be able to raise a large amount of donations.
Zhao Huan secretly shouted in his heart that Yuxi was powerful, but he couldn't refuse this matter. After all, Han was not for himself, but for the hundreds of children in the Salesian Hospital: "After I went back, I gathered some friends who I had made and asked them to contribute money and strength." ”
Yuxi showed a sincere smile on his face, one person's ability is limited, if more people are willing to help, those children can live better: "I thank Uncle Huan for those children." ”
Uncle Huan looked at Yuxi's expression and was stunned, he originally thought that Yuxi founded the school and accepted the Salesian Institute in order to gain a good reputation. But now, he knew that he was wrong. This woman really wants to help these children, not to sell her reputation: "It's a shame to say that I am a dignified seven-foot man, but I am not as good as my wife." Zhao Huan decided in his heart that he would donate more this time.
Yuxi smiled and said, "Uncle Huan praised it." I'll talk to the general about the medicinal herbs in the evening. It is equivalent to saying that she agreed to the price given by Zhao Huan.
Zhao Huan went back very satisfied. As for the dividends, neither of them mentioned it. Yuxi didn't mention it because she knew very well that even if she didn't say it, the Zhao family would send dividends at the end of the year. Coupled with the dividends of grain and grass, I believe that a lot of money can be obtained at the end of the year. However, these Qian Yuxi have another way. The intelligence in the mansion is too lagging behind, and this aspect needs to be strengthened. R1148
