Chapter 109 Chu Yurou Arrives in Fucheng
As soon as Chu Qinglan thought of this method, she immediately shared her idea with Mo Beiyu, but unexpectedly, it coincided with his.

It's just that the money she has on hand is really too little. If she still does it according to the previous method of just working and paying wages, then the little money in her hand is definitely not enough to pay.

For this reason, Mo Beiyu thought of a roundabout way.

It is said to be a roundabout way, but it is actually very simple, that is, no wages are paid for work, but three meals a day can be guaranteed for the workers.

This can save a lot of costs.

Of course, the premise of doing this is to make it clear to the victims first, those who want to come, those who don't want to go.

As soon as the two agreed, they immediately brought the news to the market and said.

The victims learned that there was no work to do. Although there was no wages, at least three meals a day were settled, and they would no longer be hungry. , it will be like before, and the work of two full stomachs will be gone.

Chu Qinglan and Mo Beiyu prepared a lot of work this time, and the drainage project required a lot of manpower, so they invited thousands of disaster victims back from the market.

Once the manpower is ready, the next step is to start the project with great fanfare.

In this way, the two of them have completely solved the problem of giving the victims a place to go and having someone do the engineering work.

It's just that the money they have on hand is really limited, and it is somewhat difficult to rescue thousands of disaster victims with less than a hundred taels.

On the contrary, the group of women who had been invited back took the initiative to find Chu Qinglan after learning about this.

"Princess, we have all heard about the project that you and the prime minister started. Not only that, we also heard that you and the prime minister have been worrying about money for several days. Waiting for other things can't help you, I can only return you the wages you gave us before, although it is not much, but a little bit is right?"

"Yes, yes, and mine too, Eldest Princess, you should accept it as well."

As everyone said, they took out money and sent it to Chu Qinglan. Seeing this, Chu Qinglan was surprised and moved. She never thought that these women would be so considerate and willing to give back all the wages they had received to her.

I was so moved that my eyes turned red for a moment, and I hurriedly said: "Everyone, thank you for your kindness, I am dissatisfied with what you said, the Prime Minister and I are really worried about the lack of money during this time, I was still thinking about what to do In order to earn more money, after all, money is needed everywhere, and money is not enough, so it is really impossible to advance or retreat, but fortunately, you are here. All of you, I, Chu Qinglan, will always remember it in my heart. Wait for me in the future When I return to the palace, I will definitely report this matter to my father."

"The eldest princess does not need to be polite to me. Now that the country is in trouble, we should do what we can."

"That's right, eldest princess, you must not be polite to us."

"Yes, yes, this is what we should do, so be polite!"

"Eldest princess, you should accept it quickly. Although the money is not much, it's because of our bad intentions."

"Yes, princess, you must not be polite to us. If you really want to thank us, why not give us more work in the future, or add more dishes to us, hahahaha..."

Everyone burst into laughter as they spoke.

Chu Qinglan heard it amused, and couldn't help smiling while covering her lips, while agreeing again and again.

In fact, even if those women handed over all their wages, it was still far from enough. The drainage project was a big hole, and it would be impossible to fill it without a golden tael.

Fortunately, the memorial prepared by Mo Beiyu was finally successfully sent to the emperor's case after traveling thousands of miles.

After reading it, the emperor felt that what Chu Qinglan and Mo Beiyu did in Fucheng was a great deed that benefited the country and the people. If the drainage project is completed, it will not only protect Fucheng from flooding, but also protect other cities in the country. Drought in arid regions.

For such a great benefit, there is no one in the court who does not support it.

But after supporting them, everyone soon began to worry again. Now that the national treasury is empty, it is difficult to take out ten thousand taels of gold, even a few thousand taels.

The emperor was so worried that his head would explode, but unfortunately he still couldn't think of a good way.

Fortunately, when Mo Beiyu said that he would submit a letter to the emperor, Chu Qinglan had the foresight to predict that the treasury would be empty. He drew up a letter to his mother, and mentioned how to raise money in his heart.

Therefore, when the emperor was too worried about lack of money, the empress was carefully considering the matter on her mind in Fengyi Palace.

In the end, I called the maid to hurry to the imperial study.

Inside the imperial study.

"Queen, why are you here?"

"See Your Majesty, this concubine is here today to report something important to you, Your Majesty." The Empress was also unambiguous, and directly told the Emperor all about Chu Qinglan's letter to her and what she had written in her heart about how to raise money for disaster relief.

After hearing this, the emperor was immediately overjoyed, and immediately ordered the servants and eunuchs in the palace, and all the empresses in the palace to hand in more than half of the money according to their own ratios to assist in this disaster relief.

This matter soon spread in the palace.

In less than three days, he really managed to scrape together a full amount of gold ten thousand taels.

With enough money in Fucheng, the drainage project proceeded smoothly.

For a while, almost all the people in Fucheng were busy digging canals and erecting structures, it was hard to tell how lively it was.

It was also because of this that within a month, the names of Chu Qing and Mo Beiyu became very popular, and the people of Fucheng were grateful for everything they had done, and regarded them as living bodhisattvas of Fucheng.

Those who volunteered to build shrines and erect golden statues for them.

Chu Qinglan was very moved by this, and felt the happiness of doing good deeds for the first time.

This is all for later.

While the drainage project was in full swing, Chu Yurou soon came to Fucheng.

It was a gloomy day, and there were signs of heavy rain. On the second floor of Fucheng Keruyun Inn, a strong wind was blowing. Chu Yurou sat on the window seat and stared coldly at the people passing by below.

Most of the people had just finished their work and went home to rest. Everyone's face was full of exhaustion and satisfaction, and they even praised each other for how much Chu Qinglan and Mo Beiyu thought of the people, and Daqing is so blessed to have such a princess and prime minister.

Hearing that Chu Yurou's face was more gloomy than the sky, she was so angry that she couldn't help reaching out and slapping the desk hard.

With a loud "bang", the followers standing in front of him were immediately frightened and fell to their knees with a "plop".

"Third Princess, please calm down... calm down, Momomo is going to ruin her... body!" the attendant staggered and persuaded.

"Calm your anger, how can I calm my anger if you want this princess? Didn't you hear how those stupid people praised the two of them? They said they were living Bodhisattvas, and they said that Daqing was blessed to have the two of them in Daqing. What a joke , They just did such a good thing, why are they praised by the people like this. Besides, the disaster relief funds awarded by the father were not collected from us..."

Chu Yurou was so angry that she kept yelling and cursing, and what she said was nothing more than her head, she just said whatever came to her mind.

On the contrary, the attendant kneeling on the ground changed his face in fright after hearing this, and quickly interrupted her words: "Third Princess, please be careful with your words! If these words are heard by someone who cares, it will be a shame. Not good."

However, she was still angry, so she didn't listen to the advice of her followers at all, and still cursed according to her own temper.

"Is there anything wrong with what this princess said? Those who are in charge are the father and emperor. They searched it from us. If it weren't for me and my mother and concubine, how could the court get so much money to provide disaster relief for this damn place.

Fortunately, this stupid disaster victim only knows how to praise Chu Qinglan, that damned girl, but completely ignores the credit of me and my mother and concubine.

If I had known that these people were so heartless, I should have hidden my small treasury better, and now I feel bad when I think of those money! "
