Chapter 164: Last Year Was Not the Life of This Winter

Pei Yaoqing thought for a while and said directly: "Yao Xiang can't move him?"

"If it's okay in the past, now... Huanzhi doesn't know?"

Yao Chong also doesn't hide it, telling you, I don't have that much power now, because you know what.

"I'll go out in the afternoon." Pei Yaoqing agreed. He didn't want to give away the money.

Why should I give it to the Ministry of Accounts? It’s not easy for officials of all sizes in our entire county to work hard!

"Huanzhi, cook the vegetables." Yao Chong reached his goal and asked Pei Yaoqing to take the boat. The boat went to Pei Yaoqing's side.

Pei Yaoqing looked at it and picked up the bean sprouts on a boat: "This is what people in Chang'an will grow in their homes in the future."

"It's considered a green vegetable." Yao Chong followed. He admitted that Li Yi's action would definitely benefit the people.

The premise is to deal with the people. If it is an official like himself, it is probably the prime minister who is considerate and persuades people with virtue.

And she couldn't move him, so how could the child in Queen Wang's belly be there? Of course he administered the medication.

Needless to say, His Majesty has been under great pressure since he ascended the throne.

There was no queen, but now there is one.

Looking at the happy look on the Queen's face and His Majesty's accommodating attitude, one can tell that he is a boy.

As for how he knew it, the young proprietor was here, and his medical skills...

Pei Yaoqing took another plate of mutton and said, "In a while, the cabbage and radish will be eaten, and the bean sprouts will last until the wild vegetables grow in spring."

"Indeed, in the past, wild vegetables were eaten to satisfy hunger. With soybean oil, people's homes consume less food. Wild vegetables can also be fried, eaten raw, blanched and dipped in sauce."

Yao Chong once again admitted that the young proprietor had countless living people, so he should not appear in the world.

"Eat first, don't waste it. The price of the buffet is fixed. If you don't eat the leftovers, you will be punished. I don't even dare to give a Chang'an order."

Pei Yaoqing took six plates of food, each of which was small and that was what was on the boat.

Yao Chong said nothing, because this heaven and earth belongs to His Majesty. You can throw away the food after eating it, and the price remains the same. Are you still reasonable?

If a minister throws away a lot of food every day, as long as someone impeaches him, he will at least have to submit an apology letter.

The young proprietor’s Zhuangzi canteen will give some menus separate labels: whatever is left in the morning will be thrown out in the evening; what is left at noon will be thrown away tomorrow morning; what is left in the evening will be thrown away at noon tomorrow.

Then those meals were divided among the farmers, but they were reluctant to throw them away.

Pei Yaoqing rinsed a piece of mutton and put it on a plate for dipping. He turned to look at the pedestrians on the street below and said, "Last year at this time, there were beggars across the street."

"This is Dongshi, why go to the opposite side?" Yao Chong really didn't know.

"Because the food they beg for is leftover food from the customers of the shops on the street in Dongshi. If they come to the shop and disturb the business, the shop will not give it to them.

Opposite Shengyefang, if someone is recruiting people, they will go there to look for them. Only people in Dongshi are willing to give away the leftover food. Last year, I was incompetent. "

Pei Yaoqing said that the circles under his eyes were red. Many people starved to death and froze to death last winter, and there was nothing he could do.

Today, there was no one begging beside Shengye Square, but there were people standing there looking up at the heaven and earth with envy.

Don't worry about this. If you are envious, you are envious. You just don't have the money to come here to eat. It's not that you can't eat food elsewhere.

Yao Chong didn't want to see people dying of cold and hunger, so he looked down.

"If the ice lamp doesn't work next year, I will ask Li Yi for help." Yao Chong promised that he would not feel ashamed to ask for a solution.

Does the prime minister have to know everything? Just know people, understand them, and make good use of them.

In fact, he just thought about it. What else would he do? I really can't do it myself.

"How many cases are there?" Yao Chong saw that no one was begging, so he asked about the cases.

"Not many. They are busy making money. Why do they steal and rob others when they have work to do? Most of them are neighborhood encroachments, or matters between men and women. It is easy to catch the victim and the defendant to be accused. It is easy to catch and not difficult to interrogate.

What I fear most is robbery and theft. It takes a lot of effort to find people, but many of them are never found.

Last year, many people died. They were strangled, killed with knives, and hit on the head with sticks. Some people saw them and told them what they looked like. Several people saw them at the same time, but they said different things. "

Pei Yaoqing talked about the murder cases last year, which were mainly robbery. If there was no money, they would just kill people and steal property.

As for conflicts and vendettas, it doesn't matter. If you can find someone, your family will be there if you run away.

Now it’s about whose chickens are suspected to have been eaten by neighbors, whose women are having issues with other men, whose men are having issues with other women, whose men are with other men, and whose women are With other women...I don't care about the last two.

"No one commits a crime because of laziness?" Yao Chong said the key point.

"Help is available." Pei Yaoqing told Yao Chong.

To be a helper is to work for money. You can do any kind of work, and some even help break people's legs.

In fact, it is the underworld, organized and scattered.

Pingkangfang has the most, so we can find people at any time.

"Are they going to work?" Yao Chong didn't understand for a while.

"No, they help recruit people. They hire a worker and give them a share of money. If that person is cheating, go directly to the helper they introduced, and the helper will persuade that person."

Pei Yaoqing told the darkest side of Chang'an, and he didn't understand Chang'an's order. He knew very little about it.

Now he uses these people to handle the secret affairs in Chang'an for me, and I will give you money.

Sometimes it’s even better than government officials. Don’t government officials pay wages for their work?

There are "big people" in Pingkangfang, and there are also poor people who have been obtained by various means, and some have been trained as little girls.

There are also those who have many children in the family and live in poverty, selling themselves or being sold by their parents.

For example, Gao Lishi and Yang Sixu were from a wealthy family. When their clans were exterminated, they were too young to be killed, so they were cut off and sent to the palace.

Others were sold into the palace so that UU Reading www.uukanshu.net could get a share of the money to support the rest of the family and also give the sold children a way to survive.

To sum it up, being able to live and grow up safely is considered happiness.

Yao Chong closed his eyes and sighed, feeling helpless. If it had been him, he would have been helpless.

After sighing in one breath, he suddenly opened his eyes: "You should really go to Li Yi this afternoon and ask him."

"Can he take care of secret things?" Pei Yaoqing felt it was useless.

"He has at least helped you arrange the people for this winter. Before this year, did you dare to think that this winter would be like this?"

Yao Chong glared at Pei Yaoqing, how would he know if he didn't ask?

"Okay, listen to Yao Xiangyan." Pei Yaoqing decided to go and have a look. He had other things to ask, such as what to do if the Ministry of Revenue wanted to steal money.

The two of them relaxed and ate slowly.

Guests are arriving one after another. Don't worry, the third floor is already fully booked. Unless Yao Chong goes up there, he can get a seat.

"Yesterday Li Yi composed, no, copied a lot of poems. I'll tell them and you can help pass them on to Pingkangfang."

Yao Chong felt that if he didn't publicize it, Li Yi wouldn't take the initiative to say it.

Unlike the literati and poets in the capital today.

Write poems about sympathy for two ducks, poems about chickens pecking at rice, and all kinds of dry speeches. Just read them when you catch them, for fear that others won't spit them out.

As for Li Yi, he talked casually without writing it down, just like chatting.

Yao Chong was very dissatisfied. How could this be the case? Let me tell you.

He threw out four poems that Li Yi had 'copied'.

One is the green pines pressed by the heavy snow, two orioles are feeding on the green willows, one is in this gate today last year, and the other is holding the bow to hold back the strong.

Also said brownstone.

"So this is the name of the palace maid and the eunuch!" Pei Yaoqing understood this time.
