The Village Doctress Chapter 890: Despite all opinions


Among the opposing ministers are old-fashioned old ministers and ministers of the household department. Anyway, the word is money.

Lin Fufu stretched out his hand and pressed down, "All ministers and workers, please calm down first."

Seeing that she had spoken, all the officials fell silent and looked up at Lin Fufu.

"Master Xiaomeng must have discussed the benefits of our construction of the Grand Canal with the ministers and workers before. I think all the ministers and workers are the pillars of the Great Wei. No one is a fool. , that account will be settled." Lin Fufu smiled lightly, his brows were clear, and he was very confident and detached.

As the queen of Beirong, she has an even more astonishing but comfortable aura, but she can't see it at ordinary times, and it will show up at critical moments.

The conservative faction and some ministers of the household department started to fight back after being stunned.

"His Royal Highness, as courtiers, we understand what you said, but one thing, what do we use to build the Grand Canal without money?"

"Reporting to His Royal Highness, the eldest princess, the imperial court can't let the people's husbands be recruited to build the Grand Canal without paying them wages, right?"

"Our Great Wei has experienced life and death several times in the past few years. This is the time for the people to recuperate. We can't let such a big event happen again to make the people panic!"

"The considerations of all the ministers and workers are correct. First, if you have no money, you can find a way; second, you must pay wages to recruit civilians to build the Grand Canal; third, you think that the construction of the Grand Canal will make the people panic. This is wrong. It is precisely because the Great Wei has experienced several life-and-death situations in the past few years, and the common people may be worried that this peace will not last long. If the imperial court announces to the world at this time that a project as large as the Grand Canal will be built, it will be able to stabilize the hearts of the people.” Lin Fufu said calmly but firmly, and her voice spread throughout the Jinluan Hall.

"His Royal Highness, I would like to ask why the construction of the Grand Canal can stabilize the people's hearts?" An old minister came out and questioned Lin Fufu.

Following the old minister's questioning, the eyes of all the ministers turned to Lin Fufu's face.

"All the ministers and workers know that the Grand Canal is a huge project, and the people who are knowledgeable will naturally understand that the court decided to build such a huge project shortly after it settled down, which in itself represents the stability of the court and the abundance of the treasury. Only the common people have more confidence in our country, and they will even support the imperial court to build the Grand Canal. Because this not only represents the stability and strength of our country, but the common people who participated in the construction of the Grand Canal, even the folks you say can also Why not make money to support your family?"

Conservatives and ministers who have always opposed the construction of the Grand Canal bowed their heads and thought about it.

"As for silver, the national treasury is short, but I believe that there are many merchants with integrity and righteousness in Wei Dynasty! The court, merchants, and common people are all twisted together, so why worry about big things not being done?" Lin Fufu said loudly .

"However, it may be possible to persuade the merchants to help the imperial court build the Grand Canal, but naturally the money paid will not be much, and it is still a drop in the bucket!"

"You don't have to worry about this. Since I dare to propose the construction of the Grand Canal, I will naturally take everything into consideration. The most urgent thing is to solve the problem of money. This is very important to me. I am confident that it can be resolved." Lin Gospel declared crisply.

The ministers began to bow their heads and whisper, and they were all rediscussing the construction of the Grand Canal.

Finally, the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs appeared on the list. He looked at Lin Fufu in awe, and said in a heavy tone: "Actually, the officials of the Ministry of Household Affairs know better than anyone else that once the Grand Canal is built, it will have a great impact on Wei's commerce, military and The benefits brought by agriculture are indeed due to the fact that it is difficult for a clever woman to live without rice. If His Royal Highness can be sure to solve the problem of even half the silver of the construction of the Grand Canal, then it can be built. Because we can build from the south to the north, which is the best to build, and build After a period of improvement, let the Ministry of Industry come up with a way to intercept the flow, and the completed section can be put into use, and some commerce and agriculture can be revived.”

Lin Fufu nodded, "Of course, this palace can solve the problem of building the Grand Canal half of the money."

"How can Your Highness be so sure?" Hubu Shangshu asked without thinking.

Lin Fufu smiled proudly, "I think that since I was able to donate all of my net worth for Wei, my Lin family business people can do it. Moreover, I will go to persuade the Lin family's business partners to invest in silver. .Businessmen have great righteousness, and more are chasing interests. As long as they promise benefits, there is a possibility of persuasion.”

Shangshu Hubu remained silent.

In the end, there were no more voices of opposition from the court, and Lin Fufu brought out another book and talked about the Yuyingtang.

This question did not attract the attention of the ministers.

They all know about the Foundling Hall, but few people have been to the Foundling Hall, and no one cares about it.

After all, the Dawei Yuyingtang is already a charitable organization, and such an organization that does good deeds rarely causes a sensation.

"I heard that the number of babies in the nursery hall in the capital has surged recently, so I specially took a few days to visit it. It is true. The reason for the surge in babies is detailed in the brochure, so I won't go into details one by one. What I mean by this palace is the question of whether or not the older children will stay in the nursery hall." Lin Fufu glanced at the ministers, and saw that their expressions were indifferent, and their eyes were fixed.

Seeing that no one came out, Meng Bufan took a step forward and said, "What suggestion does Your Highness have?"

Lin Fufu nodded to him, "Master Xiao Meng, wait a moment, I will explain this matter to all the ministers first!"

Meng Bufan should step down.

Lin Fufu continued: "Most of the healthy babies who grew up in the nursery until they were five or six years old were taken back by wealthy families to be servants, and some were taken back by human traffickers and sold. All of them stay in their own nursery halls, and when they grow up, they help the nursery halls to do things within their means to support themselves. Those who are taken back by rich and noble families to be slaves are fine. They are taken back by human traffickers to sell them. This palace will never Allowed, all the ministers and workers discuss the countermeasures, this is one of them!"

"Secondly, even if you are taken back to be a slave by a wealthy family, I don't think it's appropriate!"

A minister stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, it is a good fortune to have rich and noble people take them back to be servants and give them a bite to eat. It is very appropriate!"

"The children who grew up in the nursery hall were not bought and sold by the nursery hall to those rich and noble families. They chose them to go back to be slaves, and they would beat, scold and trade them at will if they made mistakes. This nursery hall was built by the imperial court. Those who Although the babies were abandoned due to various reasons, they were taken in and adopted by the Yuyingtang. They belong to Dawei and are also the future of Dawei. As long as you arrange and raise them well, you can say that there will not be a future champion among them , there will be no future prime minister, general?"
