The prince is five and a half years old, and he is reclaiming land and becoming a group favorite.

Everyone had already made arrangements regarding the mulberry paper. Only then did Gu Yuzhi look at Xie Changshi and then at Xie Changshi.

He looked like I have something to say, but I don’t know how to say it.

Xie Changshi looked a little amused: "Your Highness, if you have something to say, you might as well just tell me."

Gu Yuzhi's eyes lit up: "Then I really said it."

Seeing Xie Changshi and the others laughing, Gu Yuzhi pouted, wondering what was so funny.

He snorted and said again: "I really said it!"

Gu Yuzhi snickered secretly, you are laughing so happily now, but when I say it later, you won’t be able to laugh anymore!

Seeing him like this, Xie Changshi made a fist with one hand, put it against his lips and coughed lightly: "Your Highness, please speak."

Gu Yuzhi imitated Xie Changshi and cleared his throat: "You may be surprised by what I said, but let me say it first. I have made up my mind on this matter."

His little face with baby fat was full of seriousness, as if to say, what I said today is to inform you, not to discuss with you.

Gu Yuzhi had never shown such a strong side.

So at this moment, the smiles in the eyes of Xie Changshi and others disappeared, and their expressions became serious.

Xie Changshi said again: "Your Highness, please speak."

Gu Yuzhi then said: "The year we first came to Mobei, there was a snow disaster in Mobei."

When he talked about this matter, Judge Qin was deeply moved. During that time, he had been working outside to provide disaster relief. It was precisely because of this that the conflict between Li Ji Trading Company and them suddenly deepened.

Everyone looked at each other. Although it was only more than a year ago, they felt as if they were a lifetime apart.

Gu Yuzhi continued: "Last time I heard from the prefects of other prefectures that every time there is a serious snow disaster, many people will choose to sell their children in exchange for food, and most of these children sold are girls. "

Gu Yuzhi thought of this matter before when he was talking about how to bring out the incident of the girls' school.

Not only the snow disaster in Mobei, but also the flood in Jiangnan last year?

Chen Dianyi counted almost no girls among the refugees coming from Jiangnan.

He hadn't thought about it carefully before, but when he talked about the girls' school in the past two days, he seemed to understand that when the disaster struck, those girls were either sold or abandoned, and were never brought to Mobei...

Gu Yuzhi thought about those girls who were not favored, and couldn't help but think of the days when he was not favored in the palace.

But no matter what, he was protected by his mother and concubine, but those little girls were given up by their parents.

When he thought of this, he felt very uncomfortable.

Gu Yuzhi pursed his lips, blinked his big eyes, and looked around Xie Changshi and the others: "I want to set up a charity to not only take in these homeless orphans."

"But this charity is not just a charity. I also want to invite some masters and let them learn some skills in establishing themselves."

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire meeting hall fell silent. No one expected that Gu Yuzhi would suddenly say these words.

Not only Xie Changshi and others, but also Shu Xiaohan did not expect it.

It was clearly mentioned before that it was only a girls' school, but why did it become a shantang as soon as the young prince opened his mouth?

Shu Xiaohan didn't quite understand what Shantang meant, so she started talking to Wen Xiuzhu in a low voice, and then suddenly realized: "Isn't this an orphanage?"

But what the young prince meant by these words was that the establishment was not just a simple orphanage, but one with a school!

Shu Xiaohan suddenly looked at Gu Yuzhi, her mood was so agitated that she was speechless for a long time. Gu Yuzhi looked at Xie Changshi and others who were still in shock and didn't say a word, and couldn't help scratching their heads.

It was true that they had been talking about women's schools before, but after thinking about it, Gu Yuzhi felt that Xie Changshi and the others would definitely object to directly talking about women's schools.

But he first talked about the girls who were sold during the snowstorm and the Shantang. Xie Changshi and the others would not refuse, and finally he mentioned the school...

Gu Yuzhi chuckled at Shopkeeper Wen, his little eyebrows about to fly up.

This is the negotiation skill he just learned from Shopkeeper Wen.

Throw out something that Xie Changshi and the others cannot refuse, and then gradually propose their true purpose.

Shopkeeper Wen couldn't help but laugh when he saw him like this. He followed Shu Xiaohan's example and gave him a thumbs up and a thumbs up.

Gu Yuzhi was even more proud after receiving the response.

He shook his head, blinked and looked at Chen Dianyi: "Last year during the Chinese New Year, I came to Xinliang, and many children gathered around my carriage asking for sweets, but I didn't see a few girls."

"Xie Changshi, Chen Dianyi, I think that if we make an agreement with the prefects of various states and publicize our plans to set up charity halls, the people who originally wanted to sell their children will be reluctant to do so."

Teacher Shu said that most parents are still reluctant to let go of their children, but because their families are too poor, they have no choice but to do so...

He thought, if these parents who were reluctant to let go of their children knew that there was a shantang, they wouldn't just throw their children away, right?

Xie Changshi and Chen Dianyi looked at each other: "What His Highness said is undoubtedly an excellent thing."

Gu Yuzhi understood as soon as he heard this. Xie Changshi must have agreed!

He chuckled: "Right, right?"

Chen Dianyi nodded repeatedly: "But has your Highness ever thought about how much money is needed to open a charity hall? Xinliang is building it, which is the time to use money."

"There is also the management of the charity hall. Does Your Highness have regulations? And the masters that His Highness mentioned, where do these masters come from?"

There were shantangs in many places during the Sang Dynasty, but many shantangs were also found to be using these children to make money.

Chen Dianyi didn't think that the Shantang in Xinliang, led by His Highness, would do these things, but people's hearts are unpredictable. Who knows what the thoughts of those who were sent here were?

They didn't want His Highness's passion to turn into a sharp blade that hurt him in the end.

Therefore, in Chen Dianyi's view, it is better not to open the charity hall than to open it.

The opening of the Shantang was just a temporary reminder of where Gu Yuzhi got the charter.

He scratched his head: "Money is not a problem, I own Wen's Trading Company."

Wen's Trading Company is now making money, and the people of Xinliang can afford it, let alone a charity.

Gu Yuzhi chuckled and looked at everyone with particularly trusting eyes: "Anyway, I have already thought about it. The charity hall and the school will be built together next year. It will be winter when the construction is completed. We still have more than a year to prepare."

It's impossible for Xie Changshi and others to be so smart that they couldn't figure it out in more than a year.

Xie Changshi and others looked at each other, then nodded and said: "What His Highness said is that the Shantang matter cannot be completed overnight. We still have so much time, take our time, and we can always come up with a good solution." Here comes the charter.”

Gu Yuzhi spoke, and Xie Changshi nodded in agreement. How could the rest of the people refute...
