The next morning, when Li Zexuan arrived at the academy, he found hundreds of students gathered in front of the school building. He glanced around and found that the number was about the same as the one at the field yesterday. He could not help but nod to himself.
In fact, he placed great importance on the first batch of students from Yanhuang College. This was because the temperament and style of the first batch of students would determine the future of the academy! If they went astray, then the next batch of students would most likely go astray as well! At that time, it would be impossible to correct them even if he wanted to!
Fortunately, the first batch of students from Yanhuang College went astray!
"Yamachō is here!"
"Quick, stand still!"
Some students noticed Li Zexuan walking toward them. The noisy crowd immediately quieted down.
"Yamachō, other than two students who have urgent family matters, the rest of the students are willing to join the Warm Winter Operation!"
Ma Zhou walked to Li Zexuan's side and said.
"Mm!"
Li Zexuan nodded, then walked to the front of the group of students. He paused for a moment before saying, "Haha! I'm glad that most of you have chosen to stay. In the next half a month, you will definitely get more than what you put in! Alright, I've said everything that needs to be said yesterday. Let's go now! To the Warm Tang Foundation! "
"Okay!"
The students answered loudly.
And so, more than six hundred students, led by Li Zexuan, left Yunshan and headed toward Chang 'an City.
.....
At the headquarters of the Warm Tang Foundation, there were already people lining up at the entrance to donate money.
Compared to the first and second day of donations, the amount of donations received every day had gradually decreased. This was something that couldn't be helped. When something new first appeared, there would be a period of popularity. After that, people would gradually return to their rationality.
In fact, the current situation was enough for Han Yuxi and the others to be busy. Collecting donations every day was easy. However, when it came to closing the accounts every night, it was not easy at all. This was because there were many people helping out, but few people knew how to calculate accounts!
Most of the time, Han Yuxi was the one who "personally went into battle".
"Uncle Wang, arrange for someone to go to the workshop and get some more 'certificates of honor'. I heard from Sanbao that we are running out of certificates of honor here!"
The workshop was originally a small room used to store blueprints. Han Yuxi had transformed it into a study room. At this moment, she was sorting out the accounts while speaking to Wang Zhong.
"Yes, Madam!"
Wang Zhong accepted the order and left.
Han Yuxi lowered her head again, but she suddenly heard a commotion outside. She thought for a moment and recalled what Li Zexuan had told her last night, so she quickly got up and walked out of the door.
Sure enough, there were already hundreds of students in the front yard of the workshop. They were all dressed in scholarly robes. When they stood together, they looked really imposing. Those who were about to donate money couldn't help but whisper when they saw this scene. "Wow! Where did these half-grown children come from? "
"Are you here to help?"
"They … they seem to be students from Yanhuang College!"
"What? A student of Yanhuang College? Did Marquis bring these students to help? "
Ignoring these people's whispers, Li Zexuan was about to lead these students to the backyard when Han Yuxi happened to come out.
"Greetings, Madam!"
Before Li Zexuan could say anything, the group of students behind him shouted loudly.
It was the first time most of them had seen Han Yuxi. Sure enough, seeing was better than hearing about her. The students couldn't help but sigh in their hearts that Yamachō and Madam Yamachō were really a match made in heaven!
Han Yuxi smiled slightly and said, "No need to be so polite! I'll have to trouble you for the next few days! "
"It's no trouble at all!"
The students immediately responded when they heard this. Their voices were so loud that it was as if they had been injected with chicken blood!
The corner of Li Zexuan's mouth twitched. He thought angrily in his heart, A bunch of little brats. Why didn't I see you so energetic when I asked you earlier?
"Okay! This is not the place to talk. Let's go to the Drunken Wind Pavilion behind! "
Li Zexuan waved his hand and led everyone to the Drunken Wind Pavilion behind the workshop. It was his original office courtyard and also the place where he had invented the wireless telegraph. He planned to divide the work and make some "strategic arrangements" for the students there.
"Qingque, now the county magistrates of the 22 counties under Chang 'an will cooperate with our work. From today onwards, you will be the first team leader of Operation Warm Winter. You will be responsible for bringing people to contact the county magistrates. You have to quickly draw up a list of the poor in each county. Tell them not to overreport or underreport. Otherwise, if I find out, I will definitely settle the score with them!"
More than 600 teachers and students were gathered in the Drunken Wind Pavilion. Of course, the house couldn't hold so many people. Li Zexuan simply held an impromptu meeting under a pavilion in the courtyard.
Li Tai was the most suitable person to be in charge of contacting the local magistrates. With this little fatty around, how would the county magistrates dare to be sloppy? If you ask them to go east, they wouldn't dare to go west!
Li Tai didn't expect good things to come so quickly. He couldn't help but feel energized. He quickly nodded and said, "Yes! Yamachō! I guarantee that we will complete the task! But, how many people are there in the first team? "
Li Zexuan thought for a moment and said, "I will allow you to have 100 people! You can choose your own people. Of course, the other students can also recommend themselves. But in the end, both sides have to agree! "
"Okay! Qingque understands! "
Li Tai nodded and replied.
Li Zexuan continued, "Li Ke, I appoint you as the second team leader of Operation Warm Tang! Cheng Chumo will be the vice-leader! Your second team's main task is to follow the list provided by Qingque and deliver the coal and honeycomb coal produced by the workshop to the poor people! You can arrange the transportation yourself or ask the students of the Academy for help. But you must control the cost. The total operating cost of your second team must not exceed 500 strings of coins! I will allow you to have 400 people in your team. As for which students to choose, you can discuss it later! "
Li Zexuan felt that it was necessary to let Li Ke control the cost. Otherwise, this child could directly spend money to hire thousands of people to help deliver the goods. Then the rest of the students would be useless! This was not the way to do charity!
"Yes! Yamachō! "
Li Ke frowned, but he still replied in the end.
"Okay, Yamachō!"
Cheng Chumo was also a little excited. He secretly thought that Li Zexuan didn't cheat him this time.
Li Zexuan then said, "Bruiser, I appoint you as the leader of the third team for Operation Warm Winter. Meng Wenhao and Li Yan will each be the vice-leaders. I'll allow your team to have 138 members. You'll be responsible for keeping track of the accounts. First, you'll need to check the accounts of the Warm Tang Foundation every day. Second, you'll need to record every expenditure of the workshop! All the accounts must be done clearly, do you understand? "
"Yes, Master!"
"Yes, Yamachō!"
The three of them replied in unison.
After everything was done, Li Zexuan stood up and said, "Well then, Operation Warm Winter will officially start from now on! Now, you will all be in your teams! Everyone must choose a team! After you are in your teams, follow my instructions and start working! "
