Congee Factory
Qin Yining smiled, "Just follow my instructions and you'll know. Ever since I became pregnant, Wang Ye has not allowed me to use my brain to do anything. I've been content with the status quo for too long and haven't done anything for a long time. My skills have become rusty. "
Master Zhong laughed heartily when he heard this. Seeing that Qin Yining had a card up his sleeve, he relaxed a little.
Qin Yining said, "Tomorrow, follow my instructions and invite Liao Zhibing over." As he spoke, he whispered a few words into Master Zhong's ear.
Master Zhong nodded solemnly, "I'll definitely do it for you."
It was getting late, so Master Zhong took his leave to rest.
After he left, Qin Yining returned to his bedroom. However, he was unable to sleep for most of the night.
As this matter concerned his grandmother, Qin Yining did not dare to be negligent in the slightest. She carefully analyzed her entire plan from the beginning to the end, and imagined many unexpected situations in her mind, as well as how to deal with them when she encountered them. In the end, he was too tired and fell asleep in a daze.
The next day, Liao Zhibing brought Zhao Wanjin and Zhao Yinuo along with Master Zhong to meet with Qin Yining.
Qin Yining ordered people to invite everyone into the front hall of the Qin Manor. He also ordered the guards to guard the surroundings to prevent anyone from eavesdropping. Only then did he say, "When you came, you weren't followed, right?"
Zhao Wanjin laughed loudly, "Alliance Head, don't worry. Have you forgotten what we brothers used to do? Before we came, we already saw the situation outside clearly. I don't think anyone will find out. "
Qin Yining smiled and nodded, "That's good. I called you all here today because I have an important matter to attend to. "
"Alliance Head, please instruct us."
Qin Yining led the people of the Qingtian Alliance to help Li Qitian take back the throne. The Qingtian Alliance could be considered to have officially shown itself in front of the current emperor. They had been viewed as rebels in the Dayan, but now they had become loyal officials who could help the emperor. This sense of accomplishment was indescribable for them.
Liao Zhibing and the Zhao brothers were in high spirits and full of hope for the future.
Seeing this, Qin Yining felt more confident. He first told them about the news of Duchess Ding's wife being arrested, then he told them about Librarian Gao and Young master Gao. Finally, he told them what he wanted them to do. Qin Yining.
"After some observation, I found that the citizens of the old Du Du City are not living Du Du. Due to the chaos caused by the war and natural disasters, many citizens have problems eating. Therefore, I plan to set up a congee factory in the city to provide congee to the people. Firstly, it could help many commoners. Secondly, it will make it easier for me to carry out the next step of my plan. This is killing two birds with one stone. "
Liao Zhibing, Zhao Wanjin, Zhao Yinuo, and Master Zhong were somewhat confused.
However, since Qin Yining had given them the order, they trusted Qin Yining's methods.
They had done so many things with Qin Yining in the past, which was enough to prove that Qin Yining had the foresight and decision-making ability that others did not have. In addition, after getting along with each other for many days, they trusted Qin Yining's character. They knew that he was not the kind of master who would disregard the lives of his subordinates to achieve his goals.
Qin Yining's previous good character and smart and decisive means were exchanged for the wholehearted trust of her subordinates now. Without any doubts, everyone nodded.
"Since Alliance Head has made such a decision, he must have thought about everything. Brothers, let's do as he says."
"That's right. It's just that after setting up the porridge factory, we'll have to feed so many citizens. It's going to cost a lot of money."
Qin Yining smiled and said, "I still have so many fields and lands to harvest. If we transfer a portion of the money earned from the grain and land, we'll be able to save many lives. Furthermore, I do have other plans for giving out porridge this time. This can be considered killing two birds with one stone."
"Yes." Since Qin Yining had made the decision, everyone nodded in unison.
Master Zhong said, "Boss, don't worry. I'll go and transfer the money and grain."
After Qin Yining nodded, Master Zhong took his leave.
Qin Yining said to the three people in the room, "This time, I don't want to open the porridge factory under Wang Ye's name. Instead, I want to open it under the name of a foreign merchant."
"Why is that?" This time, Zhao Wanjin and Zhao Yinuo couldn't help but raise their voices.
"Alliance Head, this is such a good opportunity to make a name for yourself. This is such a good thing. If you do it, you'll be able to accumulate good karma for your family. Why do you have to keep it a secret?"
Thinking about the current situation, Qin Yining smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Actually, how could I not want to help Wang Ye gain a good reputation? It's just a pity that the current political situation is very tense. The situation in the south is also very chaotic. I don't dare to act rashly and delay Wang Ye's important matters.
"Besides, setting up the porridge factory is only one aspect of my plan. The most important thing is that I want to save my grandmother. After thinking about it, I feel that this plan is very feasible. The manager of the porridge factory is a kind-hearted and wealthy merchant from outside the country. I'll need your help. "
"Alliance Head, don't worry. It's our duty to help."
Zhao Wanjin and Zhao Yinuo were both born bandits. They were straightforward and full of masculinity. In comparison, Zhao Wanjin was more experienced and tactful than Zhao Yinuo. He was used to judging the situation and observing his surroundings.
As such, Qin Yining gave the task to Zhao Wanjin and whispered a few words into his ear.
Zhao Wanjin nodded as he listened. At first, he didn't understand what Qin Yining's plan was, so he was a bit depressed.
But now, after hearing Qin Yining's analysis and plan, Zhao Wanjin's depression disappeared. All that was left was admiration.
Zhao Wanjin nodded again and again, "Alliance Head, don't worry. I'll definitely do everything for you!"
"Alright, then I'll have to trouble you."
Qin Yining sent the guests off with tea. Zhao Wanjin and Zhao Yinuo also left the residence.
Over the next two days, a temporary porridge stall was set up in one of the most spacious open spaces in the capital.
All the food that could be found was brought out. The mixed grains and beans were boiled into pots of thick porridge. The aroma of the food wafted through the air. Without needing to call for help, countless homeless people gathered around.
Zhao Wanjin shouted at the top of his lungs, "Everyone, quiet down and listen to me. Don't crowd around. Later, everyone will have a share. Everyone will have a share! "
"Can you guarantee that?!" The commoners were doubtful.
Zhao Wanjin slapped his thigh and made a bow with his hands clasped in front of him. He said in a clear voice, "This one is Qian Gui, a merchant from the north. Although my family is not very rich, everyone who knows me knows that the current situation is not good. However, I am used to helping people. I do not lack food and drink. However, I also hope that the commoners can eat their fill. "
