Chapter 419

Walnut and Cherry came to the door of the store, and saw Dong Dabao and the others standing there, with serious expressions on everyone's faces. Seeing this, Walnut walked over to look at Dong Dabao and the merchants asking questions. Said: "What's going on? Why don't you go into the shop? What are you doing standing here?"

Dong Dabao listened to Walnut's question, glanced at him before waiting to speak, other merchants came to Walnut one after another, looked at him with a crying face and said to Walnut, "Girl, you have to deal with this matter." Help us solve it! Just now the government came and said that each household should donate 30 taels of silver to help the victims. It’s not that we don’t want to donate, but that the shop has just opened for a few days, and the funds we have on hand are too much. It’s because we can’t turn around, and now the government is forcing us to donate, what should we do?”

Walnut frowned slightly when he heard the merchants' questions, looked at Dong Dabao, and heard Dong Dabao say to him: "I just found out about this, and I heard that the county magistrate dared not let go. The treasury released food to relieve the victims, but they couldn’t bear the fact that these victims were starving and freezing outside the town, so it was unemployed? We came up with such an idea to ask all of our businessmen to donate at least 30 taels of silver, and it will end before dark. If you pay, the shop will be closed."

Listening to Dong Dabao's narration, Walnut standing there frowned slightly, looked at the anxious merchants and said, "I know that this order from the government is difficult for you, since the government came forward to ask us to donate , In fact, we have no reason to refuse, so let’s do it! Pay as much as you have? I’ll make up for what’s not enough.”

The merchants heard what Walnut said, glanced at each other, and finally sighed and nodded.

Seeing that they all nodded, Walnut smiled and said to them: "Since you have all agreed with my solution, let's all go back to the shop for business!"

After hearing what Walnut said, the merchants walked back into the shop one after another.

Seeing this, Dong Dabao frowned slightly on Yuanyuan's face, glanced at Walnut standing there and said, "Walnut, your decision is a bit reckless. If each of these merchants only took out two or two, So how much silver do you want to prepare for me?"

Hearing what Dong Dabao said, Walnut looked at her with a smile on her face, walked up to him, reached out and patted Dong Dabao on the shoulder, and said to him with a smile: "Don't worry about this, I will never I let myself put in too much money, I am just worried that those of us handed over the money, the county magistrate does not use the money to buy food, but to help the victims, but to take it from his own pocket."

Dong Dabao heard what Walnut said, looked at him, shook his head and said, "This is not the scope of our worries. We just need to hand over the money so that they don't come to the store to harass them."

While talking, several people walked into the shop, and He Chao and the others began to get busy one after another.

After noon in a blink of an eye, watching the sun slowly subside, Walnut stood there, glanced at those merchants, and sighed deeply. He knew that all the money earned by these merchants' hard work these days had been taken away. Going to rescue the victims, I feel a little unbalanced in my heart.

Walnut was sitting in front of the counter and was thinking about it. A few yamen servants walked into the door of the shop, and they came directly to him, looked at Walnut, and said with a smile on his face: "Miss Walnut, we are here to collect cash, no Do you know if the silver donated by your shop is ready?"

Listening to the questioning of several yamen servants, Walnut looked at their beautiful little faces and frowned tightly, and said to several yamen servants: "Several officials, I want to discuss something with you, you also know that we Just a few days before the store opened, our store had already donated a lot of porridge when the refugees entered the town, can we donate a little less now."

After listening to Walnut's words, the yamen servants glanced at his shop and said with a smile on their faces: "We are just following the orders above, and I hope you don't make things difficult for us, girl."

Hearing what a few yamen servants said, Walnut reluctantly took out 30 taels of silver from his counter, threw it directly in front of a few yamen servants, and said to him, "Okay then, I'll put The silver is for you."

Before He Tao finished speaking, he saw the man standing opposite her looking at the silver bag thrown by Walnut, reaching out his hand to get it, weighed it in his hand and said to Walnut, "Why are there so few? This store of yours Don't you know how many merchants there are?"

Walnut and Cherry came to the door of the store, and saw Dong Dabao and the others standing there, with serious expressions on everyone's faces. Seeing this, Walnut walked over to look at Dong Dabao and the merchants asking questions. Said: "What's going on? Why don't you go into the shop? What are you doing standing here?"
