Datang: Ten consecutive draws every week

“…… Is life important, or is the house important? ”

With Li Yuanfang’s question, the tenants bowed their heads in shame.

A sixty-year-old man stood up trembling and apologized.

“I’m sorry, the grass people should not question His Highness, the grass people agree to demolish it.”

“If life is gone, there is nothing, it is the grass people’s fault.”

“……”

One after another stood up to apologize and listened to the simple words of the tenants.

Li Yuanfang promised everyone loudly.

“The dangerous houses will be demolished, and in the spring of next year, the weather will be warmer, and the government will pay for the unified construction of a number of houses, and now they will all move for the king.”

“Hey!”

The tenants began to pick up the house, and under the guidance of the three brothers of the Shi family, they built one domed snow house after another.

Li Yuanfang explained Bai Fu seriously.

“Wait until the beginning of spring and remember to remind me about building a house.”

“Understood!”

Bai Fu came over and responded.

From the afternoon, the snow became heavier again.

Because Li Yuanfang was not worried, he stayed on Zhuangzi until the evening, and the heavy snow had not stopped.

A Zhuangtou heard about the situation in the imperial village next door, and when he learned that many houses had collapsed there, he rushed back to tell everyone.

Everyone up and down the two Zhuangzi thanked Li Yuanfang in their hearts.

Having said that, if it weren’t for the timely reaction of the new owner, they would only be afraid that they would be crushed to death by the dangerous house, after all, the place where the tenants of the Huangzhuang lived was not much different from that on their Zhuangzi.

So… Some superstitious old people have silently decided to erect an eternal life tablet for Li Yuanfang, praying every day for the prosperity and well-being of the owner.

……

On this day, Li Yuanfang was stuck at the point of curfew and hurriedly returned to the Zhou King Mansion.

Ahem, after the curfew, it is forbidden to travel in the city, otherwise you will be arrested and imprisoned, this is the system of the Great Tang is not a joke.

“Your Highness, you promised to build a house for the tenants, this is a huge expense, and the rest of the money in the house will only have to be posted in.”

After Bai Fu looked through the account book, he had to tell Li Yuanfang this tragic first.

Li Yuanfang waved his hand and said funny.

“Natural disasters are not like man-made disasters, the latter can find someone to compensate.”

“The reason why I promised the tenants to build them houses in the spring was not only to be worthy of my conscience, but also to erect a hope for the tenants.”

“As long as there is hope, I feel that with the resilience of the people, I can live there with my hands.”

Chunxing walked in with ginger soup, just heard the conversation between the two, and pursed her mouth unhappily.

“Your Highness, isn’t it good that your promise will make the people in the palace hungry in the coming year.”

“Oh, there is no money in the house, but this does not mean that I am really poor.”

After Li Yuanfang finished speaking, he picked up the ginger soup and drank it.

Bai Fu, the chief attendant of the chamberlain, and Chunxing, the maid of the Great Palace, froze for three seconds as if they had pressed the pause button.

Three seconds later, the two looked at each other and shouted in amazement.

“Your Highness! Do you have money in storage? ”

“That’s right, it’s a pity that there is no reward.” Li Yuanfang shrugged indifferently.

“That… Can you ask how many there are? Bai Fu asked cautiously.

“At least not less than a hundred taels… Gold. Li Yuanfang looked at Bai Fu with a smile.

Bai Fu’s eyes widened in amazement, and he began to convert.

“One tael of gold equals ten taels of silver, that is, ten.”

“One hundred taels of gold equals one thousand taels of silver, that is, one thousand taels.”

“The annual expenses of the royal palace in Chang’an City are at most a few hundred yuan, that is to say…”

Li Yuanfang said lightly.

“Next year, whether we open a store or wait idly for the income from sugar to come in, we will not be short of money.”

“Okay, come and tell me when the money is gone, you have been busy with me for a day today, go to rest early.”

Bai Fu nodded, no longer having to worry about money, his tense nerves instantly relaxed, and Bai Fu immediately felt exhausted.

……

Early the next morning.

Li Yuanfang rarely did not lie in bed, got up and took a warm patch for himself, and after quickly eating breakfast, he took people to Zhuangzishang.

On this day, out of the city, Li Yuanfang observed that a small number of displaced people had appeared on the official road, and even many corpses had frozen to death on the road.

“This natural disaster is really a crime!”

Bai Fu saw this scene and said bitterly.

I think that at the beginning, he was an internal attendant because of the natural disaster and war, in order to attack for his life.

“Let’s go, don’t look around, these people are free to be managed by the imperial court, and the Great Tang will not ignore the people.”

After Li Yuanfang finished speaking, don’t open your eyes and can’t bear to look.

It was the first time he had seen death in this era.

After a while….

Escorted by guards, Li Yuanfang arrived at his Zhuangzi.

“Zhuangtou, the owner is here!”

The warehouse needs tenants to guard it in batches, and the people guarding outside the warehouse today saw Li Yuanfang from a distance, and immediately tore open their throats and roared back.

The head of Zhuang in the snow room was excited, and immediately saluted Li Yuanfang.

“I’ve seen the owner.”

“Get up, are you still used to sleeping?” Li Yuanfang rolled over and dismounted, and as he walked inside, he asked, “There are no displaced people in Zhuangzi to make trouble, right?” ”

“No, no, we all sleep very well.”

After speaking, Zhuang Tou raised his finger and pointed in one direction, and said with great embarrassment.

“If it weren’t for the owner you let us build the snow house yesterday, many people would have died on our Zhuangzi.”

“But the tenants of the night watch said that many other Zhuangzi died, and many people… Some are people we are familiar with. ”

At the end, Zhuang Tou’s voice was a little choked, and among the dead people was a friend of his.

Li Yuanfang let out a long sigh.

“This year’s snow disaster is serious, and the grain of the other party in the warehouse, after the count, I need to transport the grain cultivated in the spring next year back to Chang’an, and this matter will be completed today.”

“So urgent?” The head of the bed was surprised to tilt his head.

“No hurry, today on the way to Zhuangzi, there are already displaced people outside Chang’an City, I am afraid that the next year will be robbed of grain planting, and spring plowing will be difficult at that time.” Li Yuanfang calmly expressed his deep worries.

“Hey, that’s having to transport the grain into Chang’an.”

When Zhuangtou heard this, he was anxious, but planting grain was related to the next year’s harvest, and he must not be taken away by hooligans.

Li Yuanfang thought for a moment and added.

“In addition to growing grain, I will let people transport seven layers of grain, and the remaining thirty percent will be divided equally among the tenants on the Zhuangzi, and the two Zhuangzi will be treated the same way.”

“But… King Ben is generous, don’t do anything to deceive and steal grain, otherwise King Ben will be able to dispose of you without waiting for the snow disaster to end. ”

Zhuang Tou’s face turned pale and pale, and the careful thought of taking advantage in his heart flew instantly, and he hurriedly assured.

“The proprietor can rest assured that we will distribute the grain fairly to the tenants on the Zhuangzi, and will never deduct a penny of grain.”
