miserable and life will be in chaos. 。Yè Wényán listened, frowning. "I always thought that General Yè wasn't someone who was so foolish as to only care about his granddaughter. There must have been a...Ye Wen opened her eyes sleepily, a faint aroma filling the air. Xiang Dong lifted the curtain and sat by her bedside, whispering softly, “Today, the reconstruction of the inner city of Lin'an officially begins. Many craftsmen from the outer city have arrived.” 。An officer from outside the city delivered the magistrate's message: that the fourth sister had made great contributions in this upheaval, and both the inner and outer cities were grateful for her kindness. 。Today, the inner city is under reconstruction. I hope that Fourth Sister can take a walk on the street and see the renovations in progress. 。"
Ye Wen nodded, it was time to go out. It wasn't just about seeing the post-disaster reconstruction. The main reason was that she had received an invitation from Lin'an Prefecture to go and find out what those six mountain deeds given by the Third Prince were worth so she could pay him in silver. >>> 。Then she got up, washed her face and brushed her teeth, changed her clothes, and had her hair done by Xiang Dong. She then ate breakfast brought to her by Zhuai'er. 。Then Xiangdong and Zhuier said to her, "You and Jie Mama accompany your sister out! I'll stay home." 。" Let's go together! There's nothing much at home anyway. " 。Xiang Dong is very happy. 。A carriage was waiting outside the mansion gate, it belonged to the Lin'an Prefecture government. 。When night fell, Yin Wen came out of the mansion with three servants. The official immediately stepped forward, smiling and bowing to her: "Greetings, Fourth Sister, how are you" 。The gatekeeper of the Ye residence also stepped forward to ask if she wanted to ride in their carriage. 。Ye Wen then said, "Remember to tell my mother that I'm just going for a walk on the street and she shouldn't worry. " 。The doorman immediately obeyed, with a very respectful attitude. 。The official escorted her onto the carriage, while he walked alongside it. 。Ye Wenyan lifted the curtain and spoke to him, asking, "How many craftsmen have come from outside the city Did they arrive this morning" The officer replied, "They arrived early this morning. Over three hundred people came, and another batch will be arriving in two days. In this way, within ten days, the inner city can be tidied up." 。"How will the workers' wages be calculated" The officer laughed when he heard this, "Lord Prefect, Sister Si Bu will definitely ask like that." 。Rest assured, the craftsmen's wages will be paid by the imperial court. However, this is only limited to restoring each household back to its original state. 。Anyone who tries to take advantage of this opportunity to profit from the court will be punished severely upon discovery: stripped of their rank and title, expelled from the city, and forever banned from entering. 。She nodded, “That’s good then. A craftsman shouldn’t work for nothing.” 。As for the loss to the national treasury, if it's not going to be settled by the country of Yue, then there is no need to worry about it. 。The inner city is under reconstruction, the carriages can't go fast, and they stopped after not traveling very far. 。"Fourth Sister, get off here. Everyone is working ahead, the carriage can't go any further." 。"Yè Wēn yán led his servant off the carriage, walking forward with the official. 。Along the way, she met quite a few acquaintances. Some were patients from the outer city that she had treated before, and some were relatives of those patients. 。When people saw Ye Wen coming, they all stopped what they were doing and rushed to bow to her. She repeatedly waved her hands to stop them and told them, "The court paid you silver to come to the inner city to work. Doing your own job is the right thing to do, there's no need to thank me over and over again." 。If you see me, nod your head and smile, that's the best courtesy to me. 。Everyone was delighted, changing bowing to a bow, Ye Wenyan received each one. 。The official said, “These craftsmen have all come early and have been working for almost two hours already.” 。At first, the people in the inner city looked down on them, thinking of the outsiders as paupers born to do menial labor. 。It turned out that the craftsmen from the outer city were not only skilled and efficient but also honest and hardworking. They focused solely on building sturdy houses quickly and efficiently, minimizing the amount of silver spent by the imperial court. Gradually, the people in the inner city began to change their opinion of them. 。He walked forward with Ye Wenyan, passing by several government residences. He pointed and said: “Sister Four, look, these officials' families are proactively boiling water at home and bringing it out. Some have tea leaves inside, some have sugar, whether they work in their own homes or elsewhere, anyone thirsty can take a bowl.” 。Some people also made steamed buns and boiled eggs. Although the government set up tents to provide meals for the workers, people still wanted to prepare some food themselves so that anyone who was hungry could have a bite at any time. 。On the street, a craftsman heard this and laughed: "The rich man's mansion has sugar-coated buns, they are especially delicious." 。”
The officials laughed too, and said to Ye Wen again: "All this is thanks to the Fourth Sister. If it weren't for the Fourth Sister punishing the Li family and that fifth-rank official who came to the Ye Residence to make a fuss, I'm afraid the people in the inner city would still be grateful to the Li family for their false benevolence and righteousness, holding themselves up high and believing that they were noble and that the people from the outer city were not worthy of speaking with them. 。And the injuries from when the Earth Dragon flipped over were also because Fourth Sister gave him pills, which is why he recovered so quickly. 。Although the pills were brought to the General's Manor by the Emperor himself, the Emperor also understood that it was the Fourth Sister's kindness and willingness to put aside past grievances that led her to take out the pills. 。" The official remembered something as he arrived: "The stone lions at the entrance of the General's mansion haven't been replaced yet, have they This is a big deal! He immediately ordered someone to do it, instructing them to hurry and make a new pair. " 。"Think about it, Jue’er," Ye Wen said. "Remember, the stone lions at General's Mansion, this silver shouldn't come from the imperial court; the Fifth Rank official should be the one to pay for it." 。You go handle this, and be sure to bring me the money. 。“
The officer laughed after hearing this, “Fourth Sister, you have such a good personality.”
Ye Wen also laughed, "People have always called me a witch. It's really rare for someone to say I have a good personality." 。A group of people continued forward, turning onto a new street, and they heard someone speaking loudly ahead. 。It seems to be an esteemed individual, around forty-five or forty-six years old, standing amidst a pile of newly laid bricks addressing a group of craftsmen: "Each person has their own strengths and performs different tasks. As long as they contribute to the strength of Northern Qi, they are worthy of respect, regardless of their status." 。Although you have come from the outer city, your purpose is to help the people of the inner city recover their former way of life more quickly and effectively. 。We reached out to the outer city for help, and we heard that you worked day and night there to arrive as quickly as possible. That's how you managed to get here in such a short time. 。To this, every one of us who lives in the inner city is deeply grateful. 。I, the current Minister of the Right, represent all the officials in Beijing today to express our gratitude to you. 。“ People spontaneously clapped, the craftsmen excitedly bowed to the Right Prime Minister. The Right Prime Minister stepped forward, supporting them one by one: “There’s no need to kneel to me. We are all equal. Today, you are the ones we should respect.” 。“
The artisans from the outer city were overjoyed to hear this, and even the knowledgeable wives of officials in the inner city expressed their agreement. They all felt the same way. ” 。Of course, there are still many people who look down on outsiders, but they dare not openly contradict the Right Minister's face. They can only smile and thank the foreign craftsmen for their work. 。Then the right minister greeted the craftsmen a few words, and then withdrew from the pile of bricks. 。He turned his head to look at Ye Wenyan and offered him a kind smile. 。Ye Wen bowed and said, "Greetings, Right Minister. I hope this finds you well." 。Right Minister took a few quick steps forward and reached out his hand to help. "Sister Ye Si, please rise." 。This scene depicts the imperial court inspecting the work and chatting with the craftsmen, much to the amusement of the fourth sister. 。" Right Minister's words are truly flattering! I'm just a mere girl, while you hold the esteemed position of Prime Minister. Of course, your insights are beyond my comprehension. There's nothing for me to be seen or unseen about." 。" No, no. As chancellor, he would naturally have to listen to the common people about anything." 。he fastest updates without errors, please remember https://!
