Dressed as a vicious stepmother, farming and raising cubs

Chapter 90 “Rescue the poor but not the emergency”

Su Liu was stunned for a moment, not understanding what he meant.

Wen Shiche curled his lips and explained patiently:

"It is a good thing to have a kind heart, but in today's world, there are so many refugees in the city. Even if you give alms every day, it is still not enough. Moreover, these people will become more and more greedy. This is human nature."

When he said this, he looked at Su Liu steadily, his eyes looked like an elder who was imparting experience to the younger generations.

Finally, he concluded in one sentence:

"In the end, you will find that you cannot support so many people with your little wealth."

Su Liu thought about it carefully, thinking about the social news he had read before, and felt as if he had just woken up from a dream, and nodded.

Then, she raised her head and said seriously:

“So, what you’re saying is that it’s better to teach people to fish than to teach them how to fish?”

"You can understand it this way." Wen Shiche nodded with satisfaction and added a few words, "However, your abilities are limited, so just do your best."

After listening to his words, Su Liu thought for a while and had a new idea in his mind.

Seeing her such a serious expression for the first time, Wen Shiche couldn't help laughing, and reached out his hand to pat her lightly.

"Okay, I'm here today to make an appointment with you?"

"Appointed time?" Su Liu looked at him doubtfully, not knowing what he was referring to.

Hearing this, Wen Shiche seemed a little sad and curled his lips aggrievedly:

"That's right! My eldest brother went to Beijing to report on his duties and will be returning soon. Didn't we make an appointment to go hunting together when he comes back?"

Only then did Su Liu remember this problem. She had been busy with so many things these days that she had forgotten this agreement.

She thought about it carefully and decided that the matters in Xichun Tower could be left to Song Yao and the others. It would be no problem to go away for a day or two by herself, so she said bluntly:

"Just set a time! I'm always available here!"

Wen Shiche's face suddenly showed a look of surprise, and he said with joy:

"Okay, in that case, I will send someone to inform you one day in advance."

The two chatted for a while, and Su Liu discovered that Wen Shiche, on the surface, only likes to eat, drink, have fun, and recite poems, but in fact he lives a very clear life. Many principles in the world have long been forgotten. clear.

This made her look like a flower in a greenhouse. Perhaps it was because she came from a more advanced and open era, and she still didn't understand things about ancient life.

After listening to Wen Shiche's words, she found the broken house again the next day.

The place is as deserted as ever. There are a few dirty children in the yard, living with dry firewood and roasting sweet potatoes.

When they saw Su Liu, they recognized that this was the person who helped them by delivering porridge, so they all gathered around excitedly.

However, when they looked closer, they found that her hands were empty, and they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

"Isn't sister here to bring us food?"

Looking at the eyes in front of him, Su Liu felt a little embarrassed, but he still touched the head of one of the children comfortingly and said softly:

"Sister, I have other things to do today. I will treat you to dinner next time I come to Xichun Tower."

After receiving her verbal promise, the children immediately jumped for joy. It was obvious that they were in much better spirits than the previous time she came, perhaps because they had been able to eat enough in the past few days.

Su Liu entered the house, where all the older beggars gathered.

There was no furniture in the house, not even a bed, just a layer of straw on the ground, and everyone slept on it.

"Boss, you're here!" The servant saw her first and greeted her eagerly.

Su Liu showed a polite smile and nodded to him. He also chose a relatively clean place and sat down. Everyone in the room was surprised to see her sitting among them so generously.

Su Liu looked at the person just now and asked:

"I haven't had time to ask you yet, how old are you this year?"

The man was suddenly surprised and happy, and replied repeatedly:

"The younger one's surname is Liu, and his nickname is Yang. He is nineteen this year."

Hearing this, Su Liu felt a little surprised. He didn't expect this person to be so young. Judging from his sophistication, he thought he was already over twenty.

"Well, you may have some disease or disability."

"No, no, the little one has the strongest skin and can do any strenuous work!" Liu Yang shook his head like a rattle.

So, Su Liu continued to ask:

"In that case, would you like to come to my Xichun Building to work? On weekdays, you mainly run errands and serve food. Of course, I will provide you with a place to live and three meals a day, and I will also give you monthly wages."

After hearing her words, Liu Yang was stunned for a moment, as if he had received a huge shock. Suddenly he had a place to live, no worries about food and drink, and even money. Such a good thing was something he never dared to dream about, but now he has it. It fell on myself.

Then, he felt a burst of ecstasy:

"Boss! I'm willing!"

Liu Yang almost burst into tears with gratitude, nodded crazily, and almost knelt down to Su Liu again, but she stopped him in time.

Then, she turned around and looked at everyone in the room, and said loudly:

"Everyone here counts. All adult men and women, as long as they can still move and work, can come to my Xichun Building. I welcome them all!"

The words were almost echoed by hundreds of people, and the room immediately became lively, and everyone present raised their hands.

At this time, in the eyes of everyone, she was like a god on earth, giving everyone a glimmer of hope for life.

"I come!"

"I can do it too! No need to pay!"

……

Su Liu counted the heads and found that there were about a dozen people who could really do things, and he could still afford them.

Yesterday, Wen Shiche brought up the idea of ​​helping the urgent rather than the poor, and she thought of this method.

Xichun Tower was currently short of manpower, and she had thought of going to the market to recruit workers, but she didn't know where to start.

If these people are willing to work well in Xichun Tower, it might be a way out.

Listening to the noise in the room, she raised her hands and clapped them vigorously a few times to signal everyone to be quiet. Then she cleared her throat and said:

"Of course, I want you to rely on your own hands and labor to support yourself. If I find anyone who is cheating or opportunistic, Xichun Tower will not welcome you!"

Most of the people in the room were very satisfied just to have a place to go, so naturally they nodded.

Su Liu registered all the names of these people, informed them to report to Xichun Tower the next day, and then left.

Once she had enough manpower, she would be freer. She almost didn't have to do any work herself, and she only had to supervise the people under her every day.

Could it be that this is the joy of being a boss?
