Chapter 109: Welfare House

(Ask for a collection recommendation!) )

The queen is the mother of the world, in the feudal era, it is equivalent to the mother of the country, and it is very suitable for the queen Zhou Zhiruo to come forward to manage this welfare home. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Under the guidance of Zhou Zhiruo, Lu Chengqi stepped into the welfare home he promoted for the first time in his life. The welfare institute is located in the north of Chang'an City, which is mostly a poor area. But being a poor person in Chang'an City is much better than being a small landlord outside Chang'an City. With the increasing prosperity of Jingzhaofu's economy, the price of land in Chang'an City is rising day by day. Even the land north of the city, which was originally worthless, is now worth every inch of land.

Zhou Zhiruo spent a lot of money to buy this house and get the title deed. In other places, even if you have money, it is difficult to buy such a large place. This yard, which covers an area of more than ten acres, actually cost the emperor 5,000 yuan! This is still Lu Chengqi had the foresight and bought it in advance. According to the arithmetic of later generations, this is at least 700 yuan per square meter. Don't think it's nothing, you know, the best good land in Dashun is only nine dollars per acre! In an ordinary field, one acre is only two or three dollars. It is conceivable that the land price of Chang'an City has been many times higher.

Economic prosperity has created the prosperity of the city; As the city prospers, land prices will definitely rise. Therefore, the people who had land in Chang'an City became big landowners with a lot of money. This is an inevitable trend of economic development, and even Lu Chengqi cannot interfere with it.

After entering the welfare home, a group of children with obviously vegetable-colored skin rushed up and chatted around Zhou Zhiruo. I think Zhou Zhiruo often comes here, so she will be loved by these children so much.

However, Lu Chengqi looked a little embarrassed on the side, he has been used to being surrounded by everyone since he was reborn, and for a while, everyone ran to be courteous to another person, and let Lu Chengqi stand on the side, he was really a little uncomfortable.

Fortunately, this person is his wife, and Lu Chengqi is a little better. Also, these children are the most sensitive people, and they treat those who are good to them. Their worldview is still immature, but it can best reflect the warmth and coldness of human feelings.

Lu Chengqi sighed a little for a while, these children are generally abandoned by their parents, or their parents died early, which is a scar that cannot be hidden in their young hearts. Although they are not very old, they have a precocious puberty that does not match their age, and they are very defensive against outsiders, and if you want them to take off their guard, then you must lose the so-called sympathetic gaze and look at them with the eyes of normal children. The reason why Zhou Zhiruo is so loved by them must be because she treats them sincerely, so they will let down their guard and accept this beautiful girl who looks like the sister next door.

Zhou Zhiruo's face was full of kind smiles, as if she saw her younger brothers and sisters, or as if she saw her own children. When Zhou Zhiruo finally found a gap, he said to Lu Chengqi: "You person, don't come here to help!" ”

Lu Chengqi had no experience with children, so he smirked and moved gently, but he scared these children a lot. Most of these children were five or six years old, both male and female, and seemed to have a deep wariness of strangers by nature. Seeing Lu Chengqi step forward, they vigilantly and involuntarily took a few steps back together and hid behind Zhou Zhiruo.

Zhou Zhiruo said angrily: "You, are you here to be scared?" What if you don't put away your pretentious face and frighten these kids? ”

This is really not to blame Lu Chengqi, since he put on this dragon gon, he has gradually developed a temperament that is not angry and self-threatening, maybe this is the so-called king overlord spirit! Even if he is wearing a purple robe now, he inadvertently reveals extraordinary majesty. Where can these children who have been traumatized endure it?

Lu Chengqi scratched his head in annoyance, Zhou Zhiruo turned around and said to these children: "Don't be afraid, this is my sister's father-in-law, and he was kind enough to propose to adopt you." ”

A slightly older boy, who seemed to be eight or nine years old, saw a clue from Lu Chengqi's clear eyes, and said timidly: "My sister is a good person, and my brother should also be a good person!" ”

I have to say that sometimes children's logical thinking is as simple as that. As soon as the boy's words came out, Lu Chengqi immediately became popular.

Lu Chengqi also took out the means of the big brother next door at this time, and the grimaces amused the children, and they shouted their brother vigorously. Among them, there was also a little girl, about four years old, timidly handed out a candied fruit, and said in a milky voice: "Brother, do you want to eat it, this is delicious!" ”

Lu Chengqi looked at the dishes on her face, and he didn't know how many grievances he had suffered since he was born, his heart was sour, and he said softly: "Brother don't, you can eat." If you like it, my brother will buy it for you! ”

He heard Zhou Zhiruo say on his pillow that in this era, due to famines, human traffickers, etc., many children are living in foreign lands. Either beggar or sold into slavery, girls mostly enter the land of fireworks, and when they grow up, they come out to pick up customers. These tragic encounters made Lu Chengqi listen to them, and he almost couldn't sleep all night. also let him know that the seemingly prosperous Dashun Dynasty did not have the singing and dancing as he imagined, and there were still many poor people, and these people were the source of the chaos. If these poor people are not treated well, one day they will rebel and overthrow the Great Shun Dynasty, and Lu Chengqi will not be able to be the emperor.

The only way is to alleviate the contradictions as much as possible, improve the living standards of the poor people as much as possible, and at least help them solve the problem of food and clothing. In fact, the Chinese people are the kindest, as long as they can live, they don't care how hard they live, they can fill their stomachs. But the rulers at the highest level often don't understand this truth. They are extremely poor and extravagant, and the poor people at the bottom are poorly clothed and hungry, so they have no choice but to rise up and rebel.

Lu Chengqi is also powerless about this situation. The landlord class is too strong, and the industrial and commercial class he has cultivated is still too weak to resist. The only thing that can be done is to try to use the money earned by the Huangzhuang to set up a few more welfare homes and minimize some human tragedies.

Lu Chengqi summoned Wang Yanchen and told him to go out and buy some candied fruits, fruits and the like. Wang Yanchen was also from a poor family, and he sympathized with these children, so he didn't say much, turned around and went out. It's just that who he sent to buy it, it is unknown.

At this moment, an old man with a gray beard walked into the welfare home tremblingly, and it turned out that Mr. Teaching had arrived. This teaching gentleman has been obsessed with scientific research all his life, and he has exhausted Qinghua, but he has also mixed up with a famous reputation. The people of the Dashun Dynasty are different from the Ming Dynasty, there is no Yulu, only the privilege of exempting Ding from service. But all scholars are called Xiucai, which is the so-called Xiucai meets soldiers, and the reason for the inexplicable allusion origins. And if you pass the state examination (township examination), you will be a lifter, and you will have the qualification to enter the Beijing scientific examination, which can be regarded as a "birth" on the right path.
