Chapter 354 Xiao Ying's generous reward, Nangong Jingyan sneaks in
The results of the examination were optimistic and no one was infected with the disease.
But almost everyone has health problems, most of which are caused by anemia due to not eating enough and lack of nutrition.
Some have caught a cold or have other illnesses that need treatment.
However, they couldn't enter the county town, so they could only ask people to help buy some medicine. Some of them got worse as they delayed, so they went straight to the hospital.
Fukang and others were very sympathetic. Fortunately, Yiren had already explained that as long as it was not an infectious disease, they could take it back first.
Anyway, there is a clinic in the village that can provide treatment for these people.
The treatment is free, you only need to pay for the medicine. If you really have no money, you can ask your family to work to pay for it. I believe these people will not refuse.
Sure enough, when Mo Yan made this arrangement, the refugees were ecstatic.
Some people even knelt down in front of them on the spot and praised Xiao Yiren loudly.
The next morning, Fukang and others led thousands of people to Yingfeng New Village.
Because the refugees were weak, and there were many sick people, elderly people and children, the progress was very slow.
Fukang and others had no choice. They only had two carriages, so even if they wanted to help, they couldn't. They could only walk slowly.
Baizhi and Moyan went back first to report the news, while the others took another carriage to lead the refugees, and were expected to arrive in the evening.
When Baizhi and her friend arrived at the new house, they unexpectedly found it full of joy and the servants were all grinning from ear to ear.
After asking, they found out that Yiren had given them rewards again.
And it's not just the servants in the house, it includes all those whose indentures are held by Yi Ren.
Yiren actually wanted to reward all of them with a shop!
Of course, it’s not given away for free, but rewarded to them at half the cost.
In other words, they only need to spend half the price to own a house with shops and residences!
That is their own property, they can live in it, rent it out or sell it!
Therefore, Bai Zhi and Mo Yan were also stunned, and after being shocked, they couldn't help but feel happy and excited.
Who doesn’t want their own house? And one with a shop?
They all knew that Yiren wanted to build the new village directly into Yingfeng Town, and the town would definitely be prosperous in the future.
You will never lose out if you own a house like this.
"Yiren is so good to us. I will follow Yiren for the rest of my life!"
Bai Zhi's eyes were slightly red, and she felt inexplicably moved.
If it weren't for Yiren, how could she have the chance to become a female teacher in the academy? She would probably have been confined to the backyard to serve her master for the rest of her life.
If it weren't for Yiren, she might not be able to afford such a house even with her savings of more than ten years.
Yiren can reward them with a house this time, and maybe he will reward them with something else in the future. It’s definitely a good idea to follow Yiren.
Mo Yan also smiled, which was rare, and no longer had a stern face.
Yiren truly cares about these people and wants to do good for them.
Little did they know that Xiao Ying actually had his own purpose in doing this.
One is to consume the shops and reward them to the servants at half price, which means that they are in control of the business in disguise.
The second is to win people's hearts, make them grateful to her, and serve her more wholeheartedly in the future.
The third reason is popularity. So many shops cannot be left empty. Someone has to open a shop and do business.
Fourth, it is to recover funds. Although it is only sold at half price, a large part of the money can be recovered.
This is a win-win situation.
There are now more than a thousand servants who have signed indentures with her. There are about fifteen hundred of them in the mountains and the fairy palace alone, which is about three hundred families.
In addition, there were the thirteen people who were originally bought, and the twenty-eight people who were awarded to her by the emperor twice.
There is also her Xiao Wei, and some workers working in the workshop.
Finally, there were dozens of disciples and servants from the sect.
All in all, it is estimated that 400 shops will be consumed, accounting for half of the total number of shops on the street.
The remaining half will be easy to deal with. The villagers of Yingfeng Village are estimated to be able to buy more than 100 houses.
Then there are the refugees who have been absorbed here, who should also be able to buy a part of it.
There are also many people from nearby villages and towns who are definitely interested.
After this calculation, there is nothing left, and the rest can be dealt with slowly.
When this news reached the Immortal Palace, the mountains and the sect, everyone was excited, as if they were in a dream.
Some people knelt down and kowtowed on the spot to express their gratitude to Xiao Ying for his kindness.
Some people praised loudly and were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.
Some people quickly calculated the silver money needed. Even if it was only half of the cost price, even if it was just the smallest shop, it would probably cost dozens of taels of silver, right?
Except for those families who have already sold potatoes once, these people still seem unable to afford it.
"Why worry about this? Our crops are almost ripe, and we'll definitely be able to sell them for a lot of money."
There were people who immediately objected and were very optimistic.
"That's right, this is only half the cost, is it still too expensive?"
"If I miss this opportunity, I'm afraid I won't be able to afford a shop or a house in town in my lifetime."
"Anyway, I'm going to buy it. Even if my family has to tighten their belts, I've never been a town dweller in my life."
"I don't think we need to worry too much. It will take at least several months or even half a year for the new village to be completed. By then, our grain will have been sold and we should have enough money."
The vast majority of people are optimistic and know that such an opportunity is rare and must not be missed.
The people in the Immortal Palace were even happier because it meant they could go out and do business.
The Immortal Palace is the best, but it’s also quite boring to stay in there all the time, mainly because there are not many people inside.
It would be great if you could go out once in a while.
Just as everyone was rejoicing, thousands of refugees finally arrived at Yingfeng New Village, full of anticipation.
"Sir, is this where we're going to settle down? Aside from a few houses, isn't this just a bunch of weeds?"
In the crowd, a servant of fifteen or sixteen frowned and spoke to his master with dissatisfaction.
The man called Young Master looked to be about twenty-seven or twenty-eight, with a handsome face, jade-like complexion, a pair of gentle and affectionate peach blossom eyes, and a faint smile at the corners of his lips.
He was wearing a light purple brocade robe and holding a folding fan, looking extremely elegant.
This is Nangong Jingyan disguised as a refugee.
After careful consideration, Nangong Jingyan decided to disguise himself as a wealthy young man in trouble.
In the past few days, he has gathered spies from the nearby Jing Kingdom, all of whom are ordinary people. This way, he doesn't have to worry about Xiao Ying seeing through his identity because of his spiritual power.
There were eight of them on this trip, and they had disguised their household registration documents.
His pseudonym is Tang Jing. He has an elderly father and a mother in poor health at home.
The remaining five were servants of the family, who had come here from the border of Qingzhou after going through untold hardships.
Tang Jing was a juren (a scholar) and his family owned hundreds of acres of fertile land and more than ten shops, so he was considered to have some assets.
With such an identity, he believed that Xiao Ying would value him.
