C107 (1/2)
The birth of a princess was a joyous event throughout the world. Both Kang Di and the Princess had given the Li Prefecture food as relief so that the citizens could live a peaceful life.
The losses of the villagers could be big or small. As usual, Ling Chaofeng and Xiaowan took out their own money and entrusted their friends to help them. Ling Chaofeng even personally came to Qingling Village himself, and gave his father-in-law fifty silver, to make up for the losses suffered at home.
This was Madam Xu's first time seeing Xiaowan deliver real money home, so she was naturally unlucky. However, it was only silver, so she could only stare blankly at it.
However, she did not dare to be stubborn in front of the Master Mu, who said that he would use the money to buy wood bricks to build a house, and give some to the village's poor family.
Therefore, they thought of another person coming over. With Aunt Wang's family's plan, the two of them brought some food that was cooked by their own families and rushed over to the town on the muddy road, regardless of whether the fence yard was still in a mess.
At this time, the servants of the various stores were busy picking up whatever they could and even fighting with the common people to pick them up. Everywhere was a complete mess, causing people to feel annoyed.
Rouge Shop were pretty good, the shelves were originally built very high and were firmly nailed to the ground, so the loss in the store was not that big. The shop assistants only needed to clean up a bit, but the place to live in the backyard was extremely pathetic.
When the Madam Xu and the Aunt Wang came here, they rolled up their sleeves and helped her to clean up without saying anything further. Yue Huaiyin repeatedly said that there was no need to, but the Madam Xu put on an act, ”We were just worried that you girls would not be able to handle it, so we specially came to help.
As expected, Yue Huaiyin would not let them down.
Although Rouge Shop could not be used to do much business, there were still a lot of things that had to be done in the outside world. With her savings and income, even though Madam Xu and Aunt Wang were bottomless pits, she could still afford to have them.
One had to know that it was the easiest thing in the world for someone to do with money.
The Madam Xu and the Aunt Wang each received twenty silver. Yue Huaiyin even said that she was embarrassed to say that the money in the store was insufficient, and since the bank had not yet recovered, it would be difficult for them to get the silver.
Not to mention twenty liang, even two liang of silver, the two women were happy. Not only did they bring back silver back to the village, they even brought back the legends of Ling Xiao Inn.
Very soon, everyone in Qingling Village knew that, in this disaster, only Ling Xiao Inn was unharmed.
Originally, they were afraid of the inn because they wanted to kill people and rob them of their meat buns. But now, no matter how scared they were, they were afraid of demons and ghosts.
It was unknown who started it, but they told the county magistrate's yamen that they needed Ling Chaofeng to move out of the inn, and that they needed the county magistrate to drive them out of the Baisha Town, causing an uproar.
On the 28th of the Moon, Ling Chaofeng was taken away by the Fast Catcher, but before that, he found out from his friends in the town what the citizens were thinking about these past few days.
When Ling Chaofeng left, he brought silver notes with him. When he arrived at the yamen, he immediately denied that his own inn was not affected by the water and was soaked to the brim in a similar fashion. It was just that the inn was tall and the people did not have anything to do with it.
After saying this, he sent the banknotes, which were worth a thousand taels of silver, to the old master to provide assistance to the victims.
The county magistrate's eyes lit up, his eyeballs were about to fall out of his sockets. Hearing Ling Chaofeng say that he would make another trip to Li Prefecture to request Master Liang's help for the commoners, no matter how foolish he was, he would understand.
Ling Chaofeng used money to appease the situation, but if he was not satisfied with his kindness, he would have to use his relationship with the magistrate to deal with him.
He was only a sesame seed official and his annual salary was not even fifty taels of silver. Previously, when he broke the big case, he was waiting for the imperial court's reward, but now that the New Year had arrived, he couldn't even hear the sound of a copper coin.
From this, one could see just how wealthy Ling Xiao Inn was. However, he could let the long line fish go, and slowly grind up with them in the future. If he really drove away this God of Fortune, then wouldn't that just ruin his own road to wealth?
As a result, Ling Chaofeng left the yamen and returned to the Ling Xiao Inn s under the strange gazes of the people on the streets.
Yue Huaiyin stood in her own shop and watched. If Ling Chaofeng wanted to go back, he would have to pass by here, he was still as elegant as ever, how could he be so good-looking?
The weather was cold and the people on the street were all cowering. Only he, wearing a black robe and with a grey fur collar, had such a cold and noble temperament. Why would such a person appear in a rural area like this?
Yue Huaiyin lied on the door and stared at it for a long time.
That night, the county magistrate arrived, this disaster had him busy throughout, and half dead from exhaustion. Finally, he found comfort on the beauty's body and laid on the bed with a face full of sleep, allowing Yue Huaiyin to clean him up.
Yue Huaiyin endured the disgust, doing inhuman things, and suddenly heard the bastard say: ”Ling Chaofeng is such a generous person, now master I am the one with the true power and wealth, a thousand gold, if it was silver, could you bury me here? ”Hahaha …”
”A mere inn, to have so much silver. Sir, aren't you surprised?” Yue Huaiyin scoffed.
”Who cares how he got the money. If he gets the money, I will get the money. What can those noisy commoners give me?” The county magistrate spat out the words, ”I thought that we could peel off a layer of the government's food aid, but that old thing Prefect Liang personally visited all the villages. He thought he was too high-profile, so he must have filled his stomach before deciding whether he lived or died. ”Old thing, if I can get past him one day, I'll definitely kill him first.”
A plan formed in Yue Huaiyin's mind, she acted like a spoiled child and said: ”Master, I have never seen such a large amount of banknotes, can I take a look at it?”
Zhi Prefecture was also quite alert. He said in a displeased tone, ”What? If you take it and run far away, what will you do about it, Master?”
However, Yue Huaiyin held his life foundation and said: ”I am your man in life, and death is your ghost, I am afraid that in the future, when I am old, I will be despised by the great masters. Now that I am young, I will have to serve you with all my heart. This humble one's heart is as clear as the sun and moon. I never thought that my lord would doubt my heart so much. ”
She looked like she was about to cry, and her words stirred the old pervert's soul as she hurriedly said, ”Alright, alright. I'll come over tomorrow night and let you have a look.” However, on New Year's Eve, you won't be able to come here on New Year's Eve. After the fifth day of the new year, the master will have to stay here for three days.
