In the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan beat Li Shimin at the beginning

Chapter 68 The Wei family and the Du family were scolded
Zheng Shiyuan's eyes lit up, and he said, "Okay, this method is good. Thank you, Your Royal Highness."

Zheng Shiyuan is really happy, this plan is really tailor-made for their families who are far away from the capital.

In this way, their disadvantage of not being able to spend money is gone at once.

Of course, it is impossible for them to renege on this kind of thing.Once repudiation is announced, the family's reputation will be ruined.

Li Chengqian quickly said: "You're welcome, Mr. Zheng has a kind heart. If you want to do things for the people, we must support you!"

"Okay. Bring a pen and paper, and I'll write a note for you right now."

Zheng Shiyuan wrote the paperwork, took two catties of tea and left.

After Zheng Shiyuan left, it was almost dark.

However, the hustle and bustle here in the Shu Palace did not dissipate.Because, the person in charge of the Wang family in Taiyuan also came.

There is no way, the ancestral house of the Wang family in Taiyuan is not close to the capital, and he encountered the same problem as Zheng Shiyuan.

As a result, the person in charge of the Wang family also wrote a written receipt for a donation of 100 million in the Shu Palace.

There is no way, the Zheng family donated 80, he must overwhelm the Zheng family.

Everyone wants to write their own family's name first on the stele.This is not negotiable just because you are an ally.

Li Chengqian was so happy that he almost fainted.

He thought it would be difficult to get 20 guan.Fortunately, it's almost 300 million in just one day.It has exceeded their expectations by 200 million.

Unexpectedly, really unexpected, these families are really rich!

"Okay, that's great, when Father knows about this, I don't know how happy he can be! Haha, third brother, we succeeded, we succeeded, haha..."

Li Ke said: "Brother, calm down, calm down. The big head is still behind! When the time comes, you must not be happy to smoke it, then I will become a sinner."

Li Chengqian stared: "What are you talking about? Is your elder brother so fragile? No, what are you talking about, the big head is still behind?"

Li Ke took a sip of tea and said slowly: "Of course, the Zheng family donated 80, and the Wang family donated 100 million. The Cui family of Boling, the Li family of Zhaojun, the Cui family of Qinghe, the Lu family of Fanyang, Will the Longxi Li family be willing to be the queen?"

The royal family is nominally a member of the Li family in Longxi, but that's from Pengci, and the two really don't have much to do with each other.

The most important thing is that although the Li family of Longxi acquiesced on the surface, in fact, they did not admit it.

In their eyes, the royal family is nothing more than a nouveau riche who once gained power.When they are needed, they are, and when they are not used, they are nothing.

When Li Chengqian heard this, the hand holding the teacup trembled.

Is there a possibility that these people will die for this first place?
Once such a thing happens, how much will it cost?
My goodness, it's exciting just thinking about it.

You know, what these families want most is to live forever.

This name is engraved on a stone tablet and stands at the reservoir. Think about it, how many generations will this have to be passed down?

The most important thing is that even if the dynasty changes, the emperor will not smash the stele.Unless his head is showing off.

This is the first time for them to encounter such a thing, such an opportunity must be fought for!

When Li Chengqian thought of this, he didn't know what to do.

"Third brother, according to this trend, will we get more than ten million yuan if we go on like this? At that time, the money will be used to repair the reservoir, and it will not be used up. What should we do?"

Li Kebai glanced at him and said: "You are about to become an emperor, why do you have such a pattern? The reservoir in Chang'an has been repaired, isn't there any other place? With this sum of money, why don't we put all the reservoirs in the whole country? Are they all fixed?"

"Yes yes yes yes..."

Li Chengqian patted his forehead: "Okay, when the time comes, I will tell my father to build all the reservoirs in the country. From now on, the people will not be afraid of drought."

Li Ke patted his forehead and said, "By the way, there is something I need to tell you. Go and tell Dad that we will repair the reservoir when we have money, and stop collecting corvees."

Li Chengqian was taken aback, and asked, "What do you mean?"

Hasn't it always been like this to conscript Yao Yao?How nice it is for the common people to build reservoirs for them and bring their own food!
Li Ke shook his head and said, "I just want you to tell Father that we have money and there is no need to conscript corvee to repair the reservoir."

Li Chengqian said very speechlessly: "Without corvée, who do we ask for repair?"

Li Ke said: "Of course it is to hire people with money! You can pay them as much as you pay a day."

"This……"

Li Chengqian was speechless.What is this operation?How nice it is to not spend money, why do you have to spend money?He couldn't figure it out, couldn't figure it out.

Li Ke shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's go into the palace tomorrow, and talk with Father! You don't understand this."

Early the next morning.

On the pictorial kiosk at Dongxishikou, another piece of red paper was pasted.

Yes, there is an update on Donations.

As soon as the big red paper was pasted up, the people immediately ran up to watch.

A literate officer and soldier shouted loudly there.

“大家好，水库工程的捐款更新了。分别是蜀王捐了20万贯；京兆韦家捐了40万贯；京兆杜家捐了50万贯；荥阳郑家捐了80万贯；太原王家捐了100万贯。他们的善举将被刻在荣誉碑上，受后人万代景仰。大家为他们鼓掌。”

As soon as the officer and soldier's voice fell, there were applause and applause immediately.

For a while, people everywhere praised these families.

Soon, it turned into another situation.

That's what became scolding.Scold those big families who didn't donate money.Call them rich and unkind, without kindness.

Cursing and cursing, even the Wei family and the Du family were scolded.Also call them rich and unkind.For such a big and rich family, they only donated so little money.

Look at the Zheng family and the Wang family, one donated 80 yuan and the other 100 million yuan.What about your Wei family and Du family?Just donate a little.

This is interesting.

It's a bit like those big stars in later generations.

If you donate more, everyone will say hello.If you donate less, then sorry, you will be scolded by netizens.

Well, it's really interesting.Those who don't donate may not be scolded, but if you donate less, you will definitely be scolded.

Now these big families are no different from those big stars.

The Wei family and the Du family soon received the news.

Immediately, the owners of the two families were all fried.Smashed things directly at home.

Originally thought that their two families would have a little advantage in the capital, but unexpectedly, instead of winning the first place, they were scolded instead.

"Donate, you must donate again."

With their strength, they will definitely not be able to compete with the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs.However, you can't be scolded!
The money was spent, and it was fine if he didn't get praise, but it attracted scolding instead. Thinking about it, I feel aggrieved!
They couldn't figure it out, how could the Zheng family and the Wang family get so much money?
