Early the next morning, Yu Hua got up early. He wanted to go out of the city to see people building roads.
My daughter was right. Those refugees heard that as long as they worked, they would have food to eat and make money, so they all went outside the city to help.
And they seemed much happier than when they were holding bowls in line and waiting for others to give alms.
But the bad thing is that when someone sees him doing this, they actually follow suit.
There are more people willing to pay, but there are obviously not enough refugees outside the city.
Some people even increased the wages paid to refugees in order to compete for labor.
The workload is the same, so refugees are naturally more willing to find jobs where wages are higher.
After realizing that he could not recruit anyone, Yu Hua immediately told Yu Guang about his troubles.
After a night of settling down, Yu Guang's mood calmed down a lot.
Looking at Yu Hua's anxious look, Yu Guang poured a cup of tea and handed it over: "Does dad want to help the refugees, or does he want someone to build the road?"
Yu Hua opened his round eyes and looked at Yu Guang in confusion, not understanding what Yu Guang meant.
Yu Guang continued to explain softly: "Dad's original intention is to let the refugees have a better life and make everyone's travel more convenient, not the praise of outsiders. In this case, why should we care who does these things? ?”
There is no shortage of wealthy people in the capital, and there is also no shortage of people who want to gain fame.
Although not everyone can invest in repairing officialdom, there are also many people with this background in the capital.
The Imperial Master's Office is now the new rich man in the capital, and everyone is watching his every word and deed.
When it is discovered that putting refugees to work is a low-investment and high-return thing, others will naturally follow suit.
As long as the matter of road construction is reported, the imperial court will send people to supervise it, so it will be of no harm to the imperial court.
Now this result can be said to be just right, so Yu Hua doesn't need to worry about anything.
Although Yu Hua's brain was not working well, he understood Yu Guang's meaning. He originally hoped that everyone would get better and better, but now that everyone had something to do, there was no need for him to worry about who fed and clothed these people.
Yu Hua, who no longer wanted to be stubborn, became happy again. After giving Yu Guang a piece of candy, he took Wu Yi out to play.
Looking at Yu Hua's retreating figure, Yu Guang told Eunuch Li: "If the old man comes back and wants to do good things again, help him open a restaurant in the city. All elderly people above the age of hearing can receive three free meals." meal."
There was no social security in ancient times, and life was not easy for every elderly person. If you want to do something, then do something practical.
Seeing that Yu Guang had thought carefully, Eunuch Li quickly agreed. The Imperial Master was indeed a kind person.
08 was also speechless. He really didn't expect that his host would be so considerate of others.
But there is still a small problem. The host didn’t finish listening to the story last night. What was it about?
Du Siyu was in a state of collapse recently. Her daughter, a good concubine, escaped from Prince Ming's Mansion instead of being a good concubine.
It's just a matter of escaping. It's better to ventilate her in advance and let her prepare in advance.
But that girl was spoiled by her, and she didn't know what she was thinking, but she didn't send any information back.
Now there are hundreds of members of the Yu family. Except for Yu Nian, who has disappeared long ago, the rest have been sent to prison.
Now that the Yu family has been confiscated, all the wealth of several generations of the Yu family has been turned over.
The servants had been sold, and she, the mistress of the house, was imprisoned awaiting trial.
She asked that the best outcome for her now would be to be exiled, and the worst would be to be imprisoned until the end of the year and be stabbed with a knife.
For a moment, Du Siyu was in a daze. Why on earth did she send her daughter to be a concubine? Was it just for such a catastrophe?
The news that the Yu family was confiscated soon spread to the capital, but no one connected the Yu family with the Imperial Master's Office.
Yu Guang heard about this, but he asked Manager Li to block the news again to prevent it from reaching Yu Hua's ears.
Manager Li is one of the few people who knows the origins of Yu Guang and his daughter, and he agrees with Yu Guang's explanation.
No matter from which point of view, it is not suitable for the father and daughter to have anything to do with the Yu family.
After talking about the Yu family, Manager Li began to mention another matter to Yu Guang that required Yu Guang's decision: "Sir, since the Queen Mother's birthday, people have been coming to ask for flowers from the master. The concierge has collected a lot recently. Greetings, do you see it?"
The eyes of Yu Guang did not leave the travel journal in his hand: "The thing dedicated to the Queen Mother must be unique in the world. The National Preceptor's Office is not short of fame and fortune, and there is no need to help others.
You tell them that if they want to ask for a painting, they should first weigh their own worth and see if they are worthy of being compared with the Queen Mother. "
Hearing Yu Guang's rude words, Manager Li quickly bowed his head and agreed.
After staying in the palace for a long time, I didn't feel anything wrong with Yu Guang's domineering words.
The Imperial Master is now the most proud person in front of the Queen Mother. If he is not overbearing when he is proud, should he wait until he is frustrated to become overbearing?
At that point, anyone can step on it, so what’s the point?
Just as I was thinking about how to polish these words, I heard from the corner of my eye continue: "Just tell them what I said and don't change a word."
Eunuch Li: "Yes!" This seems to be too overbearing.
While the two were talking, they saw Wu Feng walking in from the outside with a troubled look on his face.
Yu Guang put down the book and looked at Wu Feng expressionlessly: "Who did you meet?"
Everyone in the teacher's office across the country knew that she valued Yu Hua, and the only person who could make Wu Feng look like this was Yu Hua.
Knowing that he couldn't hide anything from Yu Guang, Wu Feng didn't hide anything: "Returning to my lord, I met a man named Yu Nian outside and brought him back."
After hearing Wu Feng's words, a gentle smile slowly appeared on Yu Guang's face: "Very good."
Have friends come from afar!
About a stick of incense passed, and Yu Hua pulled someone to Yu Guang's side excitedly: "Ahhhh!"
Girl, look who is here.
Out of the corner of his eye, he raised his head and glanced over the other person's body tenderly. Then without Yu Hua's urging, he called out affectionately: "Second uncle."
Today, Yu Nian is much thinner than in Yu Guang's memory, and some of his darkened fingerprints can tell that he has not had an easy time these years.
Xu felt that his current appearance was a bit embarrassing. Yu Nian tried his best to put on the calm and calm look of the past, and looked at Yu Guang like a loving elder: "We haven't seen each other for so many years. My second uncle didn't expect that my niece could actually be successful. To a field like this.”
After listening to Yu Nian's words, the smile on Yu Guang's lips became brighter and brighter: "Second uncle said that things are impermanent, and my niece did not expect that one day we would see each other again."
It wasn't just one day of seeing each other again, there seemed to be many things that she didn't expect.
Yu Hua wiped away his tears and nodded vigorously. He really missed his younger brother Yu Nian.
