Talk about bragging, why do you really have the qualifications of a great emperor?

Chapter 47 Bran, is it for livestock?
not enough!

The old butler next to him took out his abacus, fiddled with it for a while, then shook his head and said, "Master."

"It's the master!"

He Yuanwai glared at the housekeeper and snorted, "Call me master!"

The butler quickly said: "Okay, master, I will definitely remember it next time, master."

He Yuanwai: ~囧~
The old housekeeper continued: "The calculation is based on 20 catties of pork."

"If all the people in the city come to eat pork stewed vermicelli and provide disaster relief for seven days, then everyone will not even get half a tael of pork every day."

after all.

In addition to pork, food such as rice, noodles, and vermicelli also cost money.

and.

For this kind of free food, no one will feel full, and there will inevitably be situations of repeatedly receiving food and dying.

At that time, let alone 20 catties, even 200 million catties of pork can be robbed.

"its not right!"

He Yuanwai scratched his head and asked curiously: "Didn't the Taoist minister say disaster relief, and distribute food to the poor refugees who can't afford food? Those 80 are permanent residents!"

As if he had discovered a logic bug, He Yuanwai became excited: "Master Daoist, the number of refugees is only about a hundred thousand."

"20 catties of pork are shared among hundreds of thousands of people, and each person can get a small two catties!"

"Coupled with the staple food, it's enough for them to eat their mouths full of oil."

Wang Xiu smiled but wasn't smiling.

But the housekeeper showed helplessness and reminded: "Master, every time our big families provide relief, the people in the city will pretend to be refugees and receive relief porridge."

"If you really donate big white rice, big white steamed buns, and pork stewed vermicelli, the whole city will come to claim it."

"Even if the fighting is fierce, riots may be caused, and people may die."

hiss~
Is there such a person?

He Yuanwai's face was full of shock: "Is it so outrageous? It's just a few catties of pork. Why are they so crazy!"

Obviously.

He Yuanwai, who grew up with a golden spoon in his mouth, didn't know the people's feelings very well, but his old housekeeper was quite capable and knew the sufferings of the people.

"Master was joking."

The butler said helplessly: "Even the residents of Fengcheng can't eat pork every day. Ordinary people only eat it once or twice a month."

"If the family is in a difficult situation, apart from getting some meat during festivals, you can't even eat rice on weekdays."

hiss~
It seemed that the door to a new world had opened, and Member He scratched his head: "But... I killed all the pigs, what should I do?"

Although there are 10,000+ pigs raised, the purchasing power of pork for the surrounding people is not strong.

as normal.

In the pig farm of Yuan He's family, three to four hundred fat pigs are slaughtered every day. After the fat pigs are killed, the piglets are raised. After a year, they will grow up and be slaughtered, forming an internal cycle.

Now more than 2000 big fat pigs are slaughtered in one go. If the whole city is not invited to eat pork, it may be difficult to sell it out in a short time.

Wang Xiu couldn't laugh or cry.

He stroked his chin and murmured: "Poverty here has a good idea."

"housekeeper?"

"The largest rice merchant and forage merchant in the vicinity, your He family should know each other!"

He Yuanwai was still confused.

On the contrary, the old housekeeper nodded slightly, and said: "Our He family, Zhao, Qian, and Sun's families are all involved in the rice business."

"As for the fodder business, because our He family raises 10,000+ pigs, the fodder from several nearby cities will be given priority to our He family."

Wang Xiu nodded: "That's the case."

"Pindao suggested that Yuanwai He directly use the two thousand heads of pork to exchange food with the people in the city. The price will be discounted by [-]% and only brown rice will be exchanged."

"in this way."

"The people in the city get the cheap price, so they will naturally think about the kindness of Yuanwai, and will take the initiative to exchange their own brown rice for your meat to prevent the pork from going bad."

Ok.

If pork is exchanged for brown rice, it is really not difficult to digest this amount of pork with the number of 80 people in the city.

but.

Why just switch to brown rice?
He Yuanwai was stunned, but the housekeeper was thoughtful: "The Taoist priest is really smart. It is indeed a good idea to replace the stewed pork vermicelli with brown rice porridge."

"If brown rice porridge is used to open a shed for disaster relief, the cost will be many times smaller."

"The number of impostors in the city will also decrease a lot, and it should be reduced by more than half!"

In fact.

In previous years, there was a wave of refugees in Fengcheng. When the four major families joined forces to relieve the disaster, they also used brown rice porridge, and added a lot of water, which was rice soup.

Not only can it save money, but it can also prevent many people from falsely claiming and wasting resources.

did not expect.

This Daoist Wang Xiu was born in the Sanqing Immortal Sect, and he is a true disciple of the Immortal Sect. He is as detached as a god, but he understands the suffering of the people so well.

Really admirable!
Hearing the housekeeper's admiration, and seeing He Yuanwai's adoring expression, Wang Xiu shook her head slowly: "It's not enough if the number of impersonators is reduced by half."

"Far from enough!"

"Even if the 80 people are reduced by half, there will still be a full 40 left. If they also go to receive free rice porridge, the refugees will definitely not be able to grab it."

after all.

No matter in terms of physical ability, or in terms of contacts and relationships, the helpless refugees are too weak.

"This……"

The housekeeper showed a helpless look on his face: "There is nothing you can do if you can't grab it. After all, the free food, even if it's just brown rice gruel, will inevitably be tempted."

Wang Xiu shook her head and said with burning eyes, "If someone else pretends to be the brown rice porridge, then add more ingredients."

Topping?

The housekeeper was stunned: "What material does the Taoist priest want to add?"

Wang Xiu said calmly, "Bran."

Bran!

He Yuanwai swallowed his saliva and said, "Then...isn't that our family's feed for pigs?"

While exclaiming, he looked at Wang Xiu with a face full of shock.

Good guy.

Originally, I thought that daddy was enough to be rich and heartless, but I didn't expect this Wang Daoist who came from the Sanqing Immortal Sect to be even more beastly!
Add bran to the rice porridge for disaster relief?

This... this is too humiliating!
On the contrary, the old housekeeper had studied for a few years and was a bit educated. After a moment of contemplation, he slapped his thigh and said, "Wonderful! Master, this plan is very clever!"

He Yuanwai: "Where is the magic?"

The housekeeper was full of admiration, and said: "Bran is eaten by livestock, and brown rice is eaten by humans. If it is brown rice porridge, no matter how thin it is, there will be people who are greedy for petty gain."

"But if you mix bran with brown rice, unless you are really hungry, you won't get it even if you are greedy for cheap."

"If the Taoist master succeeds in this plan, we can stop the situation of falsely receiving disaster relief food from the source!"

"Wonderful, it can be called wonderful!"

"but."

The housekeeper seemed to have thought of something, and he looked embarrassed again, saying: "The world is so ignorant and pedantic, if we really use bran to relieve disasters, once this matter is spread."

"It's easy to arouse public anger, and I'm afraid it will affect the reputation of the He family and Sanqing Xianmen."

"In case it's not handled well."

"The young master and the Taoist priest may bear eternal infamy."

……

Wang Xiu nodded slightly, and looked at Yuanwai He with a smile: "If you bear infamy, you can save the lives of hundreds of thousands of refugees, Yuanwai He, would you like it?"

Can I save the lives of [-] refugees by bearing the infamy alone?

hiss~
Why does it feel like a flame is burning in my chest.

The face of the young member was flushed, and tears welled up in his eyes: "A real man should be like this, I, He Daren, have to bear this infamy!"

"very good!"

"Since Yuanwai is willing to bear this infamy."

Wang Xiu patted He Yuanwai on the shoulder and said, "The poor Taoist will not come forward!"

He Daren:? ? ?

He Daren:? ? ?

He Daren:? ? ?
