The Royal’s Little Lady Chapter 196: Charity funds
"Actually, none of us are short of money, but the status of businessmen has always been very low. Not to mention high-ranking officials, even ordinary people look down on us businessmen, right?"
The sound of "we" brings us closer to each other.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone sighed and said, "Who says it's not the case? Why, do you have a way?"
"I thought, since we are not short of money anyway, why not use part of the dividends from the jam shop to do charity in Xinhe Town. Whether it is paving roads or opening schools, we will all be able to do it by then. , everyone’s name is on it..."
Chu Yingying’s words are very clear.
In fact, it’s not that everyone has never thought about doing good deeds, but they are just worried that if they do it, they will offend others who have not done it, so no one will do it.
Some people are simply unwilling to do good deeds. You have finally earned your current family fortune, so why should you give it to those who look down on you?
At that moment, some people spoke out against it.
Chu Yingying said: "Doing this will not only be good for our own reputation, but also, everyone listen to my opinion. If it is inappropriate, we will discuss it again."
Seeing her humble attitude, everyone pricked up their ears and prepared to listen.
Chu Yingying: "For example, we can use this money to build a school, but how difficult is it to take the exam for a scholar? Even if you study hard for ten years, you may not be able to pass the exam, but those who don't pass the exam are better than those who are illiterate. In terms of brains, vision or ability to do things, they are much stronger."
She changed her voice and hit the table when she hit the key point, "You don't have to spend money to enter this school, but one thing is that once you don't want to continue taking the exam, if you want to make a living, you must give priority Consider those of us who donate money to do good deeds!”
In fact, this is mutually beneficial.
Everyone is not an idiot. As long as you use your brain a little bit, you will know that this is a completely beneficial and harmless thing.
As for the money, didn’t you hear that it came from the jam shop’s dividends? They only earn a little less every year, which is not a big deal.
If they can really gain a good reputation and have a steady stream of talents for them in the coming years, that would be the greatest benefit!
Everyone was whispering to each other, and everyone's face was filled with excitement.
If I don’t talk about anything else, let’s just talk about the counting house. People who need to be literate can come, but which scholar doesn’t have his eyes set above his head?
But if they do good deeds and build a school, and you walk out of this school, you will be receiving their kindness. Then, will you still be arrogant when you serve them in the future?
Okay, okay, okay!
Li Guangyi’s eyes brightened. Unexpectedly, this Chu Yingying really had fantastic ideas, “Then how much dividends does Miss Chu think is appropriate?”
"Uncle Li, I am just a little girl. I have never done such a big thing. How can I have any ideas? It is naturally up to your uncles to decide how much to take." Chu Yingying curled her lips and smiled, with a hint of excitement in her expression. Cunning, "Uncles, you want to be lazy all the time and don't care about anything, right?"
"Hahaha, Miss Chu is so good at talking."
Chu Yingying’s words made everyone feel extremely comfortable.
People who originally felt that they had to listen to Chu Yingying to spend money felt a little unhappy, but they felt very comfortable.
This is the art of speaking.
Finally, they discussed that they would use 10% to do good deeds. Chu Yingying would then give up half of the 60% bonus, and they would give out 40% of the remaining half.
This is also the idea of a group of big men who don’t want to take advantage too much.
I made an appointment to stay here the next day to discuss investing money.
Everyone was discussing it in full swing and completely forgot why they came to Chu Yingying in the first place.
Master Si couldn't help but sigh when he saw this scene. This Yingying is really amazing.
The next day, Chu Yingying wore men's clothes and went out with a folding fan.
This group of old men almost didn't recognize her. Chu Yingying's behavior was not coy at all, and she was so generous that it was hard to recognize her for a moment.
Li Guangyi is considered the richest man in Xinhe Town, so he was the first to speak, "I plan to spend one hundred thousand taels to invest in Yingying's jam shop."
"One hundred thousand???"
Someone exclaimed.
This is one hundred thousand taels! Some people here have only two to three hundred thousand taels of silver.
Li Guangyi said with a smile: "Everyone is free, there is no need to compete with me."
"Indeed, we are not as wealthy as Boss Li." Someone sarcastically said.
But soon someone shouted: "I don't have that much, but I am willing to give out 80,000 taels!"
Soon, there was a shout of bidding.
The waiter who delivered the drinks couldn't help but mutter: "Isn't there gambling here? Do rich people gamble so much?"
In the end, a total of 270,000 taels were raised, and each person’s share of dividends was different depending on their contribution. ~IndoMTL.com~ I specially asked Mr. Si to testify, signed the agreement, and took the money.
About the charity matter, Mr. Si also knew about it. He was very happy and promised: "Every time you do a good deed, your name will be on it!"
Chu Yingying also said: "We calculate the dividends every three months. Every time after calculating the dividends, I will find a few people to accompany me to the bank to save them in the name of charity money. How about it?"
"Yes, every time I use this charity money, I will definitely tell you where and how much it will be used for!"
Finally, Master Si, who was in a good mood, invited everyone present to the Si Mansion for a banquet.
All the merchants are naturally happy to do so.
This scene can be considered a successful ending.
Chu Yingying attended the banquet for two consecutive days and drank a lot of tea. Although it wasn't alcohol, drinking too much tea made people more awake and made her unable to sleep at all.
I simply sat up, took out a letter from a small cabinet, walked to the window, opened it, and read it carefully over and over again in the moonlight.
"Han Ge..."
She didn’t know when she fell in love with Hange. No, she wasn’t sure if she liked Hange either. She only knew that she would think of Hange from time to time, and she felt very uncomfortable every time she thought of it.
Not only that, she felt uncomfortable even when others mentioned Hange. She always deliberately did not think about Hange, but in the dead of night, when she couldn't sleep, the first thing that came to her mind was Hange.
"Han Ge, how are you now?"
What Chu Yingying didn't know was that the person she missed so much at this moment was not asleep either.
——
The capital, the General’s Mansion, in Luoyuan.
"Bang!"
"Get out!"
Han Yanxun took the woman wrapped in quilt out directly and threw her at the door of the yard, her eyes as cold as ice.
