Chapter 836: People's Livelihoods Take Care of New and Strange Things

Bringing the System to the Tang Dynasty Chapter 836: People's Livelihood Care New Things Strange Coming out of Fanglin Garden, Li Longji turned to Beitianfang.

Historically, Beitianfang, which should be managed by monks in the temple and supported by money from the temple's incense money, is now managed by the court.

The incense money from temples and monasteries in Jingzhao Prefecture has gradually decreased, and occasionally some wealthy families give more.

Ordinary people not only do not give money, but also take the incense from temples and monasteries home for use.

In the past, people believed in Buddhism and gods, and their lives were really bad, so they looked for a place to rely on.

As the circulation of newspapers increased, people's sustenance was placed on the court.

Newspapers always promote Chinese civilization, descendants of Yan and Huang, descendants of dragons, etc.

But Confucianism is not promoted alone. Confucianism is placed on the same level as Taoism, Legalism, Military Science, Diplomacy, Miscellaneous Schools, etc.

People look at the content, and even more at the annotations. The historical background of each sentence contains small stories, and people learn.

In daily casual chats, if you say one or two sentences, everyone will admire you, and the person who said it will feel that he is well-educated.

With the help of the encyclopedia of life, people find that they don’t need to believe in other things, and it is enough to believe in their own civilization.

It turns out that our ancestors have so many good things that they can’t learn them all.

Whenever there is spare money, donate one or two coins to Beitianfang, which is considered a good deed and a good deed.

The court allocated another sum of money, and the Beitianfang in Chang'an was better than the Beitianfang in other places.

It is mainly for the elderly, old ladies, orphans, and sick immigrants who are not taken care of.

There are volunteers from temples and monasteries to clean up. No matter if they ask for money, they have to help.

The court also sent people to help and take care of these people.

"Beitianfang is also a place for medical practitioners to practice. There are many injuries and illnesses. The Imperial Medical Bureau sends people, and each drugstore also sends people."

Guo Ziyi was responsible for explaining to Li Longji.

Li Longji and several others put on masks for fear of being infected.

The volunteers also wore masks, not disposable masks.

There are big shops and small rooms in Beitianfang. The small rooms are for seriously ill people.

The big shops are for lonely old people. The old people are not idle. They can weave things, unless they are unable to move.

There are disabled children, helping to do some work within their ability.

Healthy children or children with minor disabilities are not here at this time. They are delivering newspapers and polishing shoes.

Li Longji sniffed, and the smell of medicine in Beitianfang was strong: "Has the charity cemetery received many people recently?"

Guo Ziyi: "..."

Hao Lingquan did not say anything either. How could they know about the charity cemetery.

The charity cemetery is the place where corpses are parked. It turned out that the Tang Dynasty did not call it that. Li Yi insisted on saying the charity cemetery, so he listened to him.

The charity cemetery provided simple coffins and buried them.

It was not the charity cemetery established by the clan, but the one that appeared in the Northern Song Dynasty.

The current law requires that if you find a dead person, you must help bury him, especially if he is from your own family, even if he is a side branch.

Otherwise, it is considered a crime. If it is someone you don’t know, you can ignore it, but you should report it to the authorities.

The dead in Beitianfang will be sent to the charity cemetery first, and then handled by the charity cemetery.

The person in charge of Beitianfang came over and looked at the three people: "But do you have to donate money?"

"Is it said that you must donate and how much to donate?" Li Longji asked the other party.

The man shook his head: "It's up to you, you don't have to donate, but you don't donate money or volunteer, come here..."

Li Longji dug into his pocket and took out a stack of exchange coupons: "Donate, count how many there are."

The other party looked at Li Longji in surprise, took it and dipped some saliva on his fingers, and counted them.

"A total of 1,130 strings, donate?" The person in charge was scared, there were large exchange coupons of 10 strings, and 5 strings.

"Donate, Liulizhuang in the west of the city." Li Longji nodded, it was just more than a thousand strings, he didn't care if it was more, it wasn't thrown away.

"Too much, this... I have to find someone, I don't dare to manage it." The person in charge's hands were shaking.

Where is the rich man, Liulizhuang in the west of the city... the one with the giant panda?

"No need." Li Longji threw down two words and turned away. The smell of medicine was too strong.

He wanted to go to Liulizhuang to take a look. Since he had a manor, he had not been there once.

He planned to visit Liulizhuang and then go to his daughter's small manor to take a look. His eldest princess would not return to the palace.

The person in charge of Beitianfang hurried to find someone. He found the supervisor, but the supervisor was also in a dilemma. There was too much money and it was hot.

After searching for a long time, he found Pei Yaoqing, who was still the county magistrate in Chang'an County.

Pei Yaoqing was not sent out or promoted. He was not in a hurry. Seeing that the people were living a better life, he felt a sense of accomplishment.

"Someone donated 1,130 strings?" Pei Yaoqing was surprised when he received the report. Who was so rich?

"It is said that it is Liulizhuang, the one with giant pandas, and sometimes sells seafood." The supervisor provided key information.

"Ah~~ I know, take it, spend it well, and don't embezzle a penny."

When he heard Liulizhuang, a figure instantly appeared in Pei Yaoqing's mind.

More than a thousand strings, not much, that person is rich, and if he doesn't have money, there are people to help him make money.

"Do you want to buy some meat to celebrate at Beitianfang?" The supervisor swallowed his saliva and ate the meat.

"Didn't Zhangjia Village deliver the leftovers this morning? Oh~~ You don't eat leftovers?" Pei Yaoqing stared at the supervisor.

"Yes, sometimes we do." The supervisor felt guilty.

"Okay, you decide." Pei Yaoqing didn't say anything more.

As soon as the supervisor left, the county auditors went to Beitianfang to check the accounts.

Zhangjia Village would sort out the leftovers of the guests and send them to Beitianfang every day. When Lijia Village held a big event, the leftovers would also be sent.

There was no shortage of meat. The people in Beitianfang knew it was leftover, but they didn't despise it.

It turns out that the people in charge don't eat, so how do they usually spend money?

Li Longji didn't know what happened to Beitianfang later, so he went to Liuli Village to take a look.

There were tourists in the village, tourists who came to see the giant pandas, and stayed and ate in the village.

The people in the village were very enthusiastic and greeted everyone with a smile.

Li Longji and his friends didn't spend a penny, and they saw the giant pandas in vain, and the people in the village didn't say anything.

"Go to Yuanshu's village and have a meal there." Li Longji looked at the sky and decided to have a meal at his eldest daughter's place.

The group came out and walked south. It didn't take too long to see the village.

They also saw a group of people gathered there, including strong people, women and children, and old men and women.

Li Longji walked forward.

"Pepper, genuine pepper, pepper from other places, my pepper is cheap, everyone, take a look. I just sold a bag, open a new bag, take a look, taste it."

A man in the crowd brought a bag made of fine linen and silk that could be stretched to a foot in diameter and a foot deep.

The bag was filled with powder, and he stirred it with his hands and shook the bag, proving that the pepper on the top and the bottom were the same.

"One small spoonful is only one cent, if you take it to other places to sell it, it will be sold for two cents, and I can sell it even cheaper here, five cents for six spoonfuls, ten cents for thirteen spoonfuls.

I have just sold a bag, if you want to buy it, buy it quickly, and I will not sell it after the remaining two bags are sold."

While speaking, he put a spoonful on the rough paper and asked the people around him to smell it and dip their fingers to taste it.

When it came to Li Longji, Li Longji also pinched a little bit and smelled it. It was indeed the taste of pepper, and then touched it with his tongue, it was right.

But why is the price so low? Two cents a spoonful is cheap.
