Chapter 187: How Much To Donate?
“But I still need your help.”
Jin Weiwei smiled cunningly and looked at Wang Hai with goosebumps. He always felt like he was being stared at by a Fox.
“As long as you have a way, I will do my best to help.”
Wang Hai swallowed his saliva. He couldn’t get off this thief ship.
……
Beijing.
It was night. little Rich stood alone in front of the window and watched the moon.
“Jingzhi, are you thinking about that girl again?”
Ji Changhuai came to little Rich and closed the window for little Rich.
It felt a little warmer, and this cold day was not afraid of freezing.
“Father.”
Little Rich bowed his head and cupped his hands together. He did not answer Ji Changhuai’s words.
Ji Changhuai sighed, “What do you want to do with the marriage bestowed to you by the Emperor?”
Yes, little Rich was urgently recalled by the Emperor last time because of this incident. He was bestowed with the marriage to the second daughter Wei Shuwei, who was still in the Ministry of Works.
However, the Ministry of Works was a henchman of the Xu family, but little Rich could not refuse it, which made Ji Changhuai a headache.
It was obvious that he was a devoted person. Ever since he found out that his son had slept with a girl, Ji Changhuai had decided that no matter what the girl was like, as long as his son was determined, it would be a lifetime.
Other women could destroy their feelings.
“Wei Jie still has a year.”
His father was in a hurry, but the lord seemed to be in no hurry. He sat behind the desk and wrote a letter. After writing, he stuffed a hairpin into the envelope.
“One year?” It was less than half a year before the new year! Didn’t your mother prepare for her daughter-in-law?
“Yes.”
Little Rich responded faintly and sealed the envelope several times before putting it in his arms.
Ji Changhuai’s mouth twitched and he once again felt the “malice” from his daughter-in-law.
“Food that goes to Lin Shui County should be robbed.”
Little Rich said again. Ji Changhuai remembered what he was looking for little Rich.
“By the way, I plan to let you do this. We cannot let the Xu family take advantage of it.”
As soon as he was serious, Ji Changhuai seemed to have changed.
“No, I will be seriously injured tomorrow.”
“What?” Why are you tomorrow… ”
Halfway through, Ji Changhuai’s face turned green. This son doesn’t want to live well with him!
“You didn’t even spend time with me?” “!”
“Yes.”
Little Rich raised his head and said without hesitation, knowing that Ji Changhuai was angry.
“My son!”
“Father’s lesson is correct.”
It’s okay if he doesn’t go back, Ji Changhuai wants to fight little Rich with his sword, let him know what I mean!
“Father, is there anything else?”
Little Rich raised his head. His eyes were faint but there was an irresistible rejection.
“Tomorrow won’t work. You have to accompany me to deal with the Xu family.”
“… Mmm.”
After thinking for a while, little Rich still compromised.
Ji Changhuai left with satisfaction.
“Mo Feng.”
Watching Ji Changhuai leave, little Rich shouted at Liang and a shadow fell.
“Son of God.”
“This envelope is delivered to her.”
“Yes.”
……
The next day, Jin Weiwei went to Cheng Yu again and came out with a letter.
In the blink of an eye, Jin Weiwei took the letter back to the Cheng family’s back door.
“I am looking for the master of the Cheng family, Chengfeng.”
She wasn’t sure about the Cheng family now, but she heard that Cheng Feng seemed to have taken over the position of Cheng Yu and controlled the Cheng family’s property.
The manservant looked at the token Cheng Yu gave her and immediately became respectful. “Madam, wait a moment. I’ll go back to Master Feng.”
Jin Weiwei nodded. This was the meaning of the wind. If the Cheng family first donated food, the merchants with a better relationship with the Cheng family would also donate a little. She would also donate, so she didn’t believe that the merchants in Shui County could still sit still.
“Madam Jin, my grandfather is invited.”
Jin Weiwei nodded and greeted her as she walked through the Long Corridor. Jin Weiwei couldn’t help but sigh in praise. Although the Cheng family was a business house, the decoration of the family looked like a family of scholar, which was very tasty.
After walking to the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, they finally arrived.
Looking at the a richly ornamented building, Jin Weiwei felt that she must have such a house in the future. It seemed like she was not a rich family but a rich family.
“Madam Jin.”
Suddenly, a refined male voice broke Jin Weiwei’s train of thought. Looking up, Jin Weiwei was even more impressed.
The person in front of you looks old, but you can see the refined and cultured in your youth, especially this person who is similar to Cheng Yu. Jin Weiwei can imagine what Cheng Yu looks like after he is old.
“Master Cheng, I came today to ask for something. This is Mr. Cheng’s letter.”
Jin Weiwei gave Cheng Feng the letter written by Cheng Yu.
She was wasting her words, so she went to see Cheng Yu first.
After Cheng Feng finished reading it, he frowned and said with a hint of sharpness, “The Cheng family will go all out in this matter.”
Jin Weiwei, who got the trust, finally put down a big stone in her heart and bid farewell to Chengfeng.
Less than half a day later, the government issued a notice of the merchants in Lin Shui County voluntarily donate food, and told everyone that county magistrate Wang Hai had reported the name of the person who donated food to the court.
This move caused everyone to panic. They did not expect that when did they say they wanted to donate?
When Jin Weiwei heard this, she almost spat out a mouthful of tea. She underestimated Wang Hai. This person could always bring out other people’s ideas to the extreme.
Alright, the merchants of Lin Shui County couldn’t do anything about it.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
Jin Weiwei really admired Wang Hai’s shameless solution.
What made people even more be taken by surprise was that the County Yamen’s notice was posted not long ago, and the Cheng family took the lead in donating 1, 000 kilograms of rice. The speed was so fast that just as they finished, someone brought food over.
Some smart people could tell that the Cheng family had long been colluding with the government.
Immediately afterwards, the Jin’s Food Store also gave 1, 000 kilograms. This time, everyone was anxious, and more or less of them also donated a bit.
But in the afternoon, the official residence’s notice came out again, telling everyone that the number of people’s contributions was recorded in the script, and they would be presented to the emperor.
This time, everyone stopped and their hearts started to panic. Some of them were big households in the border of Shui County, but they only donated a few hundred pounds. If the higher-ups investigated them, they would probably not know how the family died.
“Wang Hai is playing us dead!”
Ma Chengfu was so angry that Golden Teeth was about to fly out. This matter was clearly the collusion between the Cheng family and the government, and that Jin Weiwei!
Alright, when they raised the price of the rice noodles, they found a Jin Weiwei to lower the price. They couldn’t hold it down anymore, and they started to make trouble for them to donate food.
“…Master, how much do you donate?”
“What?!”
Mar lowered his head and repeated it again. Since Gongsun Hong came to Shui County, he couldn’t understand what he did.
