Portable Space: Reborn Little Couple

Chapter 350 Donation and Tracing

Although Mo Qianrui and Tang Yanxiu were orphans in their previous lives, everything was done by themselves.

But they don't care much about money either.

Moreover, money is also divided into two types.

One is the hard-earned money saved by oneself, which is naturally very precious, and it is a sin to waste a little bit of it.

But the other kind is a windfall, like Tang Yanxiu ignoring his cousin's 120-carrying dowry, and the Tang family property that Tang Yanxiu mentioned now that he will inherit.It's okay to use these indiscriminately, it's so easy to come and go.

That's why, after Mo Qianrui first traveled through time, he saved a few money through his own labor, and he wanted to break it into eight petals.But after Tang Yanxiu piled up a mountain of copper coins in the space hut, Mo Qianrui didn't care at all.

There is a big difference between hard-earned money and windfall!

However, some problems are difficult to handle.

"Yan Xiu, I agree with you to donate the property of the Tang family, but the Tang family... except for the money taken away by your uncle, most of it is real estate, right? Not to mention far away in Jingdu County, just want to exchange those real estate for Money, I'm afraid I want to spend a lot of effort."

What Mo Qianrui didn't say was that it's nothing to spend some time, and the two of them have nothing to do now.

But the problem is, they can wait, what about those ordinary people who have suffered catastrophe for no reason?

Although the climate is not very cold now, we can't let everyone spend the night outside, right?If it is windy and rainy, wouldn't a large area fall down immediately?But it is extremely difficult to arrange everything in Sang County immediately.

Even if you have enough money on hand now, you may not be able to buy everything you need.

We must know that the more impoverished and backward the place is, the scarcer materials are.

"Otherwise, I'll use the money in the space hut first, but..." Obviously, Tang Yanxiu also remembered what Mo Qianrui could think of, "By the way, we still have money in the space." How much to eat?"

Maybe this is the only way?
Mo Qianrui lowered his head and thought for a while, but finally shook his head: "The warehouse is full of rare ingredients, which were saved bit by bit in the previous spring and summer. Other than that, there is only Flowers and some meat. There are only two or three bags of rice and some pickles and sauces in the kitchen, which is not enough. Moreover, the maturity period of food crops is not short. Even if all of our small square fields are planted with food, I guess I won’t get much out of it.”

The crops in the space do mature very quickly, but even the food crops with the shortest harvest period may take two or three days to harvest.

If it is other things, such as flowers and the like, it is enough to harvest several times in a row. If it is partial to food, the small square field in the space alone may not be enough to harvest ten times in a row. bag of rice.

One must know that apart from the time and delicacy of the crops in the space, the number of crops harvested is almost the same as that of the outside world.

This would be enough for Mo Qianrui and Tang Yanxiu, but there are tens of thousands of refugees in Kesang County!

Unexpectedly, except for the first time in Yangliu Village, Mo Qianrui has never grown food crops at all since then. Even the two or three generations of rice in the stove were bought in Wanhua County. I can't get out of stock.

Hearing what Mo Qianrui said, Tang Yanxiu was also at a loss.

He was willing to spend money, and he was willing to contribute, but the problem was that according to the current situation, he couldn't use his strength at all.

But at this time, Mo Qianrui thought of another thing.

"In fact, maybe we don't need to intervene in this matter. After all, the government office is not a decoration. I heard that the county magistrate of Sang County sent someone to report to the prefect's mansion in Chongming County. Even if Chongming County is very poor, it is a big one after all. It’s impossible for the county city to not even get this little money and food?”

"This... I mainly want to atone for my uncle."

"If you want to contribute money and efforts, I naturally have no objection. But Yanxiu, you have to remember that we are just a bunch of idiots, and rashly intervening should be a matter of the government... I'm afraid it's not very good? Although I don't know much about the situation here, but you should remember Shen Wansan's story, right?"

Naturally, neither Mo Qianrui nor Tang Yanxiu could be compared with Shen Wansan, who was wealthy in the Ming Dynasty.

But it has to be said that they are doing the same thing now.

Since Shen Wansan rewarded the three armies in place of Zhu Yuanzhang at the beginning, it would have caused death, so if Mo Qianrui and Tang Yanxiu really did what the government should do, even if it would not be so serious and attract mulberry The dissatisfaction and blame of the county magistrate is possible.

It's not that Mo Qianrui is glass-hearted and can't bear the slightest grievance, but that it's not worth doing.

After much deliberation, the two finally discussed and decided that they should simply pay a sum of money and give it directly to the county magistrate of Sang County.

Of course, the purpose is to make it clear in advance that it is only used to donate to these ordinary people who are suffering.It would be best to use this to attract other wealthy households in Sang County to donate together. After all, although the scope of the disaster is very large, half of the entire Sang County has never suffered.

No matter how bad it is, at worst, they will pay for it, and they can buy food from some wealthy households for donation.

After determining the method, the two discussed the specific amount of money to be paid.

Considering what Sheng Mi En Dou Mi Qiu said, the two decided to pay two thousand taels of silver.

This amount is actually quite a lot, although the two of them don't know the price of grain in Chongming County.But in Wanhua County, the top-grade rice only cost five hundred coins a bucket, and the low-grade rice only cost a few tens of coins.If you go to the countryside to buy that kind of unhulled rice, you can buy a bucket of rice for only a dozen yuan.

If the two thousand taels of silver were all used to buy low-grade grain, it would be enough for tens of thousands of people to eat for several years.

Naturally, if there is no need for so much food, the remaining money can also be used to build houses. The original intention of left and right Tang Yanxiu is to atone for sins. As long as all the money is spent on the suffering people, he may feel at ease.

In fact, Mo Qianrui didn't take this matter to heart at all.

To put it mildly, she has a big heart, as long as it has nothing to do with herself, she is not willing to get involved.

To put it bluntly, it was indifference. After all, she felt that it wasn't her fault from the beginning to the end. Even facing the ruins, she was at most shocked rather than guilty.

Forget it, let's just spend money to buy Tang Yanxiu a peace of mind, anyway, the two of them didn't earn the money in the first place.

Having said that, the saying that money is easy to do things is true.

After finding the magistrate of Sang County, Tang Yanxiu explained his thoughts, and the magistrate of Sang County was immediately moved.Without saying thank you again and again, he immediately ordered the yamen servants to take the money to collect grain in neighboring counties. At the same time, he called in the middle-aged laborers among the refugees and asked them to help build houses with free meals and extra coarse cloth as a reward.

Seeing the actions of the magistrate of Sang County, Mo Qianrui and Tang Yanxiu felt relieved.

In fact, there is one point that both of them guessed wrong.

There are indeed many corrupt officials in this world, but not every official is corrupt.

In places like Sang County, the officials can't wait to spend their own money to make their political achievements look better, so that they can change to a fat job after their term of office is over.

Previously, when such a tragic case happened, the county magistrate of Sang County had already fainted several times, not because of the suffering people, but because of his completely hopeless career.Being dismissed from office and demoted is not a big deal, and the main thing is not his fault.You don't have to expect to be promoted or transferred.

And so, when Tang Yanxiu said that he was willing to give two thousand taels of silver to help the people in distress, the county magistrate of Sang County was of course very moved.

Two thousand taels of silver!
It is enough to feed and drink enough for all the people in distress, plus build a brand new house, maybe there is money to repair the road to the neighboring county, expand the post station, and build a passable market.

The county magistrate of Sang County is not a corrupt official with a black heart. In fact, he was assigned to such a poor place only because he was born in a poor family.

If possible, he is still happy to benefit the people.

To put it simply, he has not been polluted by officialdom, and he is still a pure and good person.

Tang Yanxiu and Mo Qianrui both had two lifetimes of experience. Even though they didn't know much about the magistrate of Sang County, seeing that everything he did was for the sake of the common people, they immediately felt relieved.

The bank note of two thousand taels was handed over to the magistrate of Sang County immediately, and the other two hired some idlers to help find Tang Yanxiu's little cousin.

Maybe it's because Tang Yanxiu's wages are nice, or it's simply because the common people are grateful, the job of finding someone is not as difficult as originally imagined.

In fact, in less than half a month, the person was found.

Tang's aunt and little cousin are both alive.

"Da Lang, you..." Aunt Tang's family had already known that Tang Yanxiu was looking for their mother and son. She was unwilling to come out at first, and even took great pains to hide everywhere.But although she has been in Sang County for more than a year, she usually stays at home and doesn't know much about the situation in Sang County. After all, she was found on the way to the hospital.

The reason why he went to the clinic was because Tang Yanxiu's little cousin was seriously ill.

After being brought in front of Tang Yanxiu, the aunt of the Tang family burst into tears.

"Dalang, your uncle is crazy! He is really completely crazy! I know that I have done too many things to apologize to you before, but you can see that your cousin is still young, so you go around Him! I... I'm fine, at worst I'll give you my life, just please don't take your anger out on your cousin!"

Poor parents all over the world, these words are suitable for the aunt of the Tang family, but the uncle of the Tang family who ordered to shoot arrows regardless of Tang Yayun is really too much.

Tang Yanxiu never thought of embarrassing his cousin, and now he doesn't even bother to pay attention to the Tang family's aunt.

"Auntie, don't worry, I won't get angry with my cousin. By the way, my uncle is dead, and my cousin is gone. Now you are the only relative left by my cousin."
