Zhu Xiongying was silent for a moment,

It can be said that not only in ancient times, but also in modern times,

How to place veterans into employment has always been a huge problem.

but,

Compared with ancient times, modern times are undoubtedly better able to solve this problem.

The fundamental reason is that the productivity levels of modern and ancient times are different.

In modern times, there are a large number of jobs that allow veterans to buy homes. However,

This was not the case in ancient times;

There weren’t that many professions in ancient times.

Ordinary people are nothing more than,

There are three types: farming, serving as a soldier, and being a small trader.

And no matter which one it is,

They are all barely able to feed themselves.

Disabled veterans who have been discharged from the army have absolutely no hope of survival.

I can’t farm, I can’t demobilize, and the small traders are too timid.

In addition to the monthly relief provided by Lao Zhu,

These veterans have no other source of income.

So,

Does Lao Zhu know about this?

Lao Zhu must know,

Not only did he know, Zhu Yuanzhang also made a lot of efforts,

For example, monthly subsidies and land allocation to veterans without disabilities,

Compared with most previous actions that left disabled veterans to die,

Lao Zhu is simply a living Bodhisattva.

but,

Even Lao Zhu can't fundamentally solve this problem.

One,

It's because the court has no money.

Secondly,

There are too many veterans!

There are tens of thousands scattered in Yingtian Mansion alone!

Zhu Yuanzhang fought in the south and north, and spent half his life in the army.

Defeat enemy bandits, drive away tigers and wolves, there are countless large and small battles.

When there is a battle, there will be casualties.

The number of retired veterans,

It has now become an astronomical figure!

Not only Yingtian Mansion, but also various state capitals and every corner of the Ming Dynasty, there are a large number of veterans scattered around.

Even the government is unable to calculate the specific number.

Thinking about it this way,

Chang Mao wants to use the money from the Chang Mansion to help veterans.

It's nothing more than a drop in the bucket.

Full of idealism.

But Zhu Xiongying likes it very much,

If everyone is a utilitarian philistine,

What will the world look like?

It is the existence of these idealistic people that can make the world a better place.

There is no doubt that my uncle is such a person.

Zhu Xiongying had some ideas in his mind.

I couldn't help but look at Chang Mao,

He opened his mouth and said,

"Uncle, how did you help them?

Send money directly, or something. "

Chang Mao shook his head, with a bitter look on his face.

He opened his mouth and said,

"Young Ying, you don't know, those people are very stubborn!

If you give them money directly, they will just think that you are humiliating them, and they will be angry instead!

So your uncle, I have taken great pains to

I give money to the rice shop owner every month and ask him to say to these veterans who come to buy rice,

These rice are bad old rice and can be sold to them cheaply.

These veterans go to this rice shop every month to buy rice.

In fact, these rice are subsidized by our family. "

Zhu Xiongying was a little dazed when he heard this.

I really can’t believe that my uncle’s thoughts are so delicate.

In order to subsidize veterans, it has been done to this extent!

This made Zhu Xiongying couldn't help but feel respect in his heart.

Naturally, Chang Yuchun’s family was not the only one fighting for the Ming Dynasty.

There are countless generals who have established careers due to their meritorious service.

But only Chang Yuchun's family did this.

Everyone was silent for a while and all lowered their heads.

They also know it well,

If it continues like this, it will definitely not be a problem.

Bringing down Chang Mansion is one thing.

Those elderly disabled veterans, if there is no relief from the Changfu,

How to survive?

They can only live and wait to starve to death.

Chang Sen suddenly stood up, surprising everyone.

Chang Sheng couldn't help but frown and said,

"Third brother, what are you doing?"

Chang Sen said angrily,

"I'm going to make money! Help brother!"

Chang Sheng said curiously,

"How do you want to make money?"

Chang Sen is extremely confident,

replied,

"have no idea!

Anyway, I am very strong! Who wants to buy my strength!

I'll go do something for him! "

Jiang Wei couldn't help but wipe his face after hearing this.

secret passage,

Who dares to hire you to do work?

As soon as you get out of your body shape

Even Jin Yiwei had to notice it immediately.

I thought they were going to pay someone to kill someone!

Lan Yu looked at Zhu Xiongying,

He said embarrassedly,

"Xiongying, I'm sorry,

You encountered such a lot of shit when you first came to our house.

Hey, your good mood has been ruined by these things, right? "

Zhu Xiongying shook his head,

said,

"No, uncle, I'm quite happy."

Lan Yu couldn't help but ask,

"Happy, what are you happy about?"

Zhu Xiongying said,

"Fortunately this happened to me,

otherwise,

My uncle will have to hold it in forever. There is no way I can know.

But now that you let me know, I can still think of a solution. "

When everyone heard this, their eyes couldn't help but light up.

When I think that Zhu Xiongying can come up with a whipping method, when it comes to veterans,

There should also be some unique insights.

Chang Mao said urgently,

"Xiongying, please help uncle think of a solution!

If this matter can be solved, uncle, I can sleep well too! "

Chang Mao lowered his head as he spoke,

He exposed the top of his head and showed it to everyone.

continued,

"Xiongying, uncle, I'm so worried that I'm going bald!"

Zhu Xiongying couldn't see it, so he could only laugh twice.

Zhu Xiongying sold it out,

He asked,

"Uncle, what's the name of the rice shop you're connected to?"

Chang Mao said directly,

"Yuanlai Mipu, over there at the west gate of the city."

Hearing this, Zhu Xiongying nodded,

He called Jiang Wei and said,

"Jiang Wei, will you go out with me?"

Jiang Wei opened his eyes and stopped concentrating with his eyes closed.

He quickly stood up and said,

"Okay, Your Highness!"

Zhu Xiongying smiled and said in the direction of Chang Mao,

"Uncle, please wait at home.

I'll go explore the situation first. "

After all,

Zhu Xiongying did not hide anything and completed the disguise directly in front of everyone.

This again made everyone exclaim in surprise,

Jiang Wei's eyelids twitched wildly.

No matter how many times I see His Highness doing this,

It was as shocking as seeing it for the first time!

Zhu Xiongying instantly changed into what he was when he first entered the Chang Mansion.

A very ordinary-looking man,

Zhu Xiongying casually pulled out a black cloth belt.

Directly in front of my eyes,

smiled and said,

"That's good,

Everyone can tell at a glance that I am blind, so they don't waste time asking me questions. "

Although Zhu Xiongying said this with a smile,

But when everyone heard this, they couldn't help but feel sad.

Why is God so blind? !

It can be said,

Anyone present can make Zhu Xiongying regain his sight.

They are willing to pay any price!

Everyone is feeling sad,

Lan Yu suddenly exclaimed,

asked,

"What time is it now?!"

Chang Sheng stretched out his head and glanced at the sun.

said,

"Uncle, it's already time."

As soon as Lan Yu heard this, the hair all over her body suddenly stood up.

Just run out and run away,

While running, he shouted,

“It’s broken, it’s broken!

Your Majesty must kill me. I forgot to go to the palace to get chicken soup! "

Zhu Xiongying also stood up and said,

"First uncle, second uncle, third uncle,

Then I’ll go~”

Chang Sen also stood up and cautiously walked to Zhu Xiongying.

said,

"Xiongying, can I go with you?"

Before Zhu Xiongying could speak, Chang Mao frowned and said,

“No, the faces of the three of us are easily identifiable.

Just let Xiongying go on his own. "

Chang Sen said oh,

Extremely disappointed, he stepped aside again.

Zhu Xiongying smiled and said,

"Third uncle, wait until I come back to play with you~"

Chang Sen immediately regained his strength and nodded heavily.

"Xiongying, third uncle is waiting for you!"

Zhu Xiongying nodded and walked out of the Chang Mansion with Jiang Yu.

Jiang Wei opened his mouth and pointed,

Zhu Xiongying took the lead and headed in that direction.

At this hour, there are many people in the capital.

What surprised Jiang Wei was that,

As if he was not blind, His Highness darted left and right in the crowd.

Not even the corners of my clothes were stained!

When he thought of His Highness's skill, Jiang Yu felt relieved.

After a while, the two of them arrived in front of the rice shop.

There was a noise,

passed into Zhu Xiongying’s ears,

"Old Huang! This is too much!

Could it be that these reduced prices of Chen rice are just for you brothers? !

This makes no sense!

Everything must be done on a first-come, first-served basis.

Since we came first this time, naturally we should buy first! "

This voice is very strong,

Just by listening to it, you can feel that the person speaking is full of energy and blood.

But the old Huang in this person's mouth had an old voice, and he said somewhat flatteringly,

"Xiao Liu, this West City has always been our territory.

What kind of rice do you people from the east city gate come here to buy?

And we have been buying rice here for more than ten years.

It's a bit inappropriate for you to suddenly get involved. "

Xiao Liu, who had a strong voice, took a sip and shouted,

"Old Huang, what are you talking about?

It makes no sense!

If you live in the east city gate, you have to buy rice at the east city gate. If you live in the west city gate, you can only buy rice at the west city gate?

The rice here is cheap, so of course I want to buy it here! "

After hearing this, the veteran at the East City Gate also became agitated along with Xiao Liu.

And Lao Huang didn't give in too much either.

Suddenly shouts and curses were heard, and a fight was about to begin.

The boss of Yuanlai Mipu,

A fat man with a rich appearance quickly ran out with a smile on his face.

said,

"Masters, let's stop arguing here.

These things are all prepared for Lao Huang, so please be patient. "

When Xiao Liu from the East City Gate heard this, he immediately exploded.

He pointed at the rice shop owner’s nose and yelled,

“You fucking choose people to sell things?!

It’s not that I won’t give you money, but I’m just going too far! "
