Chapter 2170 Donate Half and Half
Li Yi had a comfortable pig-killing meal, and in the afternoon he went to the ward while humming a song. He didn't wear a mask and smiled at everyone he saw.
There was a baby with acute pneumonia who was receiving an IV drip with a bitter face, and he wanted to cough but couldn't.
Li Yi smiled, and the baby grinned after seeing it, and started to cough while laughing. He coughed up two mouthfuls of phlegm, and his smile became brighter.
Li Yi looked at the case: "Acute pneumonia?"
He touched his mouth and quickly took out a mask and put it on. He thought he wouldn't be infected at this moment, and he would take medicine when he got back.
The monks and Taoists outside who were anxious to find a solution, no matter what they had, were in a stable mood at this moment.
The rumor made sense, at least he could save face.
Did Li Yi tell him how many kerosene lamps to buy? Did Li Yi get the money to eat one more meal or drink one more sip of wine?
They gathered in small groups to discuss how many kerosene lamps and thermos to buy.
With a thermos in winter, you don't have to worry about not having hot water, you can drink it at any time.
Sima Chengzhen found Ye Fashan and the other two again and told them the whole process truthfully: "Is it true?"
Ye Fashan nodded: "Really!"
Shan Wuwei also nodded: "Not at all false!"
Sima Chengzhen breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly realized.
It didn't matter whether it was true or not before. After it was spread, the false was also true. If it was true, it was true.
"Xiao Yi once said that when the false is true, the true is also false, and when there is nothing, there is something and nothing. The depth of the realm is amazing."
Ye Fashan mentioned that Li Yi copied Cao Xueqin's sentence, and he appreciated it.
"Yes!" Sima Chengzhen had a deep literary accomplishment, but he had to admit that Li Yi said it well.
In fact, everyone he met had a good literary foundation.
"I'll talk to them about buying." Sima Chengzhen was willing to run errands and quickly get things done.
"Ask them to donate a sum of money, starting from 10,000 strings, to the soldiers at the border."
Ye Fashan reminded that don't just buy, donating is the fundamental.
"Good!" Sima Chengzhen responded and went out to donate money. Who would dare to move after the donation?
Rumor has it that Li Yi protected them, and they paid for the soldiers, so there is no moral reason to rob them.
Sima Chengzhen helped, and the monks and Taoists agreed. They agreed to take out half of the remaining money from the temples in Henan Prefecture and buy things and donate.
The last quarter of the total was exchanged with Li Yi for coupons, deposited in Li's manor, and taken when needed.
The temples in Jingzhao Prefecture directly used half to buy things and donate, and half was also deposited in Li's manor. It was too dangerous to keep the money in their hands.
They were helpless. In terms of money, who had more than Li Yi? Why didn't anyone think of robbing?
Everyone asked Sima Chengzhen to help ask Li Yi, is it okay? It's useless to discuss it yourself, and Li Yi needs to nod.
In the evening, continue to eat the pig-killing dishes. The hot pig-killing dishes are more fragrant than freshly cooked ones.
Sima Chengzhen came back just in time. He observed first this time and didn't let Li Yi choke again.
Seeing that Li Yi didn't drink the soup, very good!
"Doctor Li, they said..." Sima Chengzhen repeated the situation.
"I didn't expect that the Buddhists and Taoists of the Tang Dynasty were so wise and righteous. They were originally non-confrontational, but were willing to pay for the fighting.
Sure enough, if you have the people in your heart, you have Buddha in your heart and Tao in your heart.
The heart of Tao and the nature of Buddha should illuminate the world and last forever.
From now on, the kerosene lamps they use will be provided by Lijia Zhuangzi'an every month."
Li Yi said sincerely that since they donated so much, the kerosene would be provided for free, according to the amount that the kerosene lamps can light in one night.
In the future, diesel and kerosene will become cheaper and cheaper. Let's put it this way, the donated money can be used for low-interest loans, and the interest will be enough to buy kerosene.
Sima Chengzhen continued to listen seriously, at least the kerosene was really given, that's right.
He asked the second question: "The remaining things should be converted into money and deposited in Li's manor?"
"Okay, I will lead them to invest and make money, and they will ask people to donate incense money, and buy land to rent out, helping others to avoid rent.
This is not good, I can make money by my own ability, benefit the people, and pay taxes by the way.
Don't worry, I won't lose money. Who of those who do business with me is not rich?"
Li Yi agreed to deposit in the manor and took the initiative to lead the people in the temple to invest.
"Is it really not worth it?" Sima Chengzhen was worried.
"If I lose money, it will be mine. If I make a profit, I will split it in half. I will pay taxes first, and half of each family will pay after paying."
Li Yi was addicted to the model of 21 plus 5, which guarantees the principal and profits.
Sima Chengzhen would agree at this time that the extra money would be considered as profit, and the money saved would not be less.
He hurried to tell others, looked at the pig-killing dishes, and smacked his lips.
"There are more in the manor, bring three thousand people's portions and ask someone to send them together."
Li Yi decided to treat guests. People put real money in your place and let you invest, and treat you to dinner as normal.
"I'm afraid it won't be enough." Sima Chengzhen knew there were many monks and Taoist priests.
"Give some of the people who can speak first, and tomorrow we will host a banquet for all the monks and Taoist priests. We will eat the pig-killing dishes, and those who don't eat meat will eat pickled vegetables."
Li Yi didn't want to bother the farmers now. He estimated that others were also eating, so he took them over and let each of them eat a little. It would be fine if they just wanted to show their appreciation.
Sima Chengzhen happily agreed again. Li Yi was kind to people, really.
He went out, and everyone looked at Li Yi.
"Everyone, eat, it's cold and fishy." Li Yi stopped with his chopsticks.
Others started to eat, and Bi Gou hesitated, but still gritted his teeth: "Xiao Yi, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net The kerosene lamps and thermoses you sold..."
"Didn't you donate the money? The donations to the soldiers were recorded in the Ministry of Revenue, and your Ministry of Revenue had a portion of military expenses left."
Li Yi didn't wait for Bi Gou to finish his words and mentioned the truth about the donation.
"That... that's them..."
"If I don't protect them, can they donate money? If they donate money, I will give them lamp oil for free, but lamp oil is not money?"
"Eat." Bi Gou was sure that Xiao Yi would not pay taxes.
Everyone ate a few bites, and Li Longji waited for Li Yi to pause and asked: "Take them to invest and make money?"
"Their money is wasted, give them new accounting methods, and they will keep an eye on the business.
They are smart and learn things quickly, and I can save my worries if they manage them.
Once they get used to it, it will be difficult for them to make progress in their own studies.
How does that saying go? Oh! If you fail to obtain the scriptures, you can still return to Gao Laozhuang."
After Li Yi finished speaking, he laughed. Others who study Buddhism and Taoism can return to secular life.
Anyway, you do business with me, and you have people.
It doesn't matter what your identity is, just use it for my own benefit.
Yao Chong looked at Li Yi deeply for a while: "What a calculation! Are you going to eat the pig-killing dish tomorrow?"
He was a little scared, and it was thanks to Li Yi that he didn't pay attention to him at the beginning.
"Old Yao, if you want to eat it, I'll save it for you. Tomorrow we'll eat pig heads, pig trotters, pig legs, offal, ribs, and cook a lot of dishes."
Li Yi was planning to invite a large group of people to eat the pig-killing dishes, and the rest could only be digested in the farm.
"Li Lang, braised pig tails are delicious." Princess Yongmu reminded Li Yi when she saw that Li Yi didn't mention the pig tail.
A pig can produce a lot of meat for braising, but only one tail.
"Yes, it must be." Li Yi promised.
Everyone ate peacefully. Today's harvest was great, mainly because they passed this hurdle in their hearts. The monks and Taoists would always have a grudge if they didn't donate money.
