Chapter 108
Mo Beiyu knew that she was very concerned about this matter, if she was not allowed to follow, she would probably keep thinking about it when she stayed at home.
Besides, he always wanted her to gain more popular support through this opportunity.
And to gain the hearts and minds of the people, it is always essential to show your face.
Thinking of this, he didn't refuse, but repeatedly told her to take good care of herself.
After some exhortations, he still felt uneasy, so that after exhorting, he suddenly said: "Forget it, I'd better go with you."
Only by following her and watching her anytime, anywhere can he feel at ease.
But he can go with him, which is naturally the best, but he is worried that it will affect his business affairs.
So when she heard what he said, Chu Qinglan immediately worried: "Will this affect your work? Are you going to go to the riverside with the magistrate to inspect the disaster? Or forget it Well, just let Eleven go with me, with Eleven here, there won't be any big troubles."
"It's okay, the inspection can be postponed a bit, and it won't be too late for me to accompany you to find someone and come back."
After he said that, Chu Qinglan no longer refused, and happily agreed, and followed him to the market to find someone.
Now that the disaster is serious, except for a few families in Fucheng, most of the people's houses have been washed away by the flood, and the crops have also been submerged by the flood. There is nothing to do, and they can only beg in the market all day long.
It's just that there are too many people. At a glance, it is a huge crowd. At a rough estimate, there are at least seven or eight people.
There are men, women and children, and it is shocking to watch.
Chu Qinglan hid her compassion, walked up to everyone and explained her intentions for coming.
To her surprise, when the victims heard that they were here to find people to do the work, and that they would be paid as long as they did the work, they immediately became very excited and rushed towards her one by one, fearing that they would be slowed down. One step further, this good job will be snatched by others.
One by one, they kept shouting loudly:
"Eldest princess, please accept me. Although I am a bit older, I am still in good health and not weak in strength. The point is that I eat very little."
"Princess, princess, what do you think of me? I am very strong, and it is absolutely no problem to lift heavy things. As long as you take me back to work, I promise I will do it to your satisfaction!"
"I, I, I will work hard. If you want money, I will do any work."
"I'm not afraid of hardship, tiredness, or dirt. As long as the princess is willing to take me back, even if you want me to be an ox or a horse, I'm willing."
"Go, go, you still want to be a cow or a horse for someone with your small body. Even if you can do it, you are just a group of old horses that are about to die. Princess, you should look at me, what kind of job am I?" The kind of guy who can do it all.”
"Eldest princess, please take me back. No wages are required, as long as I have something to eat, that's enough."
"I also only need one portion to eat. As long as you can give me one portion to eat, even if it requires me to go down the mountain of swords and fire, or wash the toilet and brush the hair bucket, I am willing."
"Take me away, please, I really need this job."
"Joke, as long as you need it, don't others need it?"
"Princess, look at me and take me back."
"I, I, I, I want to..."
After a while, Chu Qinglan and the others were surrounded by the victims, and some emotionally wanted to rush forward, and they were about to jump on Chu Qinglan.
Seeing this, Mo Beiyu had no choice but to quickly protect Chu Qinglan with his body, while resolutely sternly yelling at the victims: "Stand back, everyone back up, speak slowly if you have anything to say, don't get excited or anxious !"
The victims were so excited that they couldn't listen to what he said, and kept rushing forward one by one, making the whole scene chaotic and tense.
Mo Beiyu really had no other choice, so he had to draw his sword out of its sheath.
Immediately, the long sword in his hand moved forward: "I said, back off, don't come again, otherwise, the sword has no eyes."
As soon as the sword was released, the victims finally stopped rushing forward, but everyone's emotions continued to rise, and they kept begging Chu Qinglan to take them back.
Frankly speaking, if it weren't for Mo Beiyu being here, all the victims would have wished to hang themselves on Chu Qinglan.
Looking at the current situation, Chu Qinglan couldn't tell how much emotion she felt in her heart.
Apart from being emotional, she was also extremely thankful that Mo Beiyu came with her, otherwise, she and only one or two people would have been unable to deter these victims.
Fortunately, although these disaster victims were emotional, their reason was still there.
For this reason, when everyone was almost shouting, Chu Qinglan hurriedly said: "Fathers, folks, please calm down and listen to me. I only need about fifty people, not so many, and I also have requirements for the people I want, but I don’t want anyone who is physically disabled, sick, too old or too young.”
"If anyone meets the requirements, please automatically stand to my right, and then I will do further screening by myself."
As soon as these words came out, those eligible victims immediately stood up to her right.
After the first round of screening, the original hundreds of victims were cut in half in an instant.
But she only needs about 500 people, and there are currently people who meet the requirements, so another screening must be done.
Considering that when cleaning up the major mansions, they will often go in and out of the backyards of the major mansions, and most of the people who come and go are female relatives. It is somewhat inconvenient to recruit men to work.
Therefore, the second screening condition is that women stay and men go.
After the second screening, more than half of the remaining ones disappeared.
From the remaining hundreds of women, Chu Qinglan carefully selected fifty women who seemed to be more agile.
Those who were selected were naturally overjoyed, while the victims who were not selected were so sad that they couldn't help crying bitterly.
Seeing that, Chu Qinglan's heart was about to break.
In fact, she knew very well in her heart that under such circumstances, for the common people, let alone having a job to do, as long as they can have a bite to eat, it is already a great thing. A errand is scrambled and bloody, and the one who gets the job is happy and grateful, and the one who doesn't gets it is sad and weeps.
It's a pity that she has too little work on hand now, and there is no way to get more disaster victims to participate.
Mo Beiyu seemed to have seen through her thoughts, and under the cover of his sleeve robe, he gently held her hand, and comforted him softly: "Don't worry, take your time, there will always be a way."
"We can wait, but these disaster victims can't wait. If we continue to starve like this, I'm afraid..."
I'm afraid the situation will become more and more critical, and the victims may impulsively cause riots because they are dissatisfied with the status quo, and it will get worse by then.
Although she didn't say the latter words, as the prime minister of a country, Mo Beiyu naturally knew it all too clearly.
Therefore, he is more anxious than anyone else, and more than anyone else, he can't wait to solve this matter quickly.
But he still understands the reason why he can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and he can only take one step at a time.
For this reason, after comforting her, he resolutely went back to the study to continue writing the memorial.
Chu Qinglan was not idle either. After bringing the fifty women back to the mansion, she began to divide the fifty women into five small teams, and then let the five teams go to other people's mansions according to the order of registration before. On cleaning up the backyard.
After a few days, Chu Qinglan quickly earned more than 100 taels of silver.
In addition to paying the wages of these fifty women, there were seven or eighty taels left in the end.
Chu Qinglan thought that there were still many disaster victims in the city who hadn't been dealt with, and if they continued to do nothing, it would inevitably lead to riots after a long time. Anyway, she had some money on hand now, and the project that was stopped because of lack of money was just right. It can be developed little by little.
In this way, it can not only solve the problem that the victims have nothing to do, but also take this opportunity to complete major projects.
