Chapter 465: Help
In fact, these things shouldn’t be brought to Xiao Tu’s attention, but they have no choice!
After Duke Ning came to power, it should have been an iron-blooded dynasty, but because of Madam Xiao, there were signs of governing the world with benevolence.
This made it difficult for Ji Xueshi and his group of passionate court officials to suppress their excitement.
But if you ask Governor Ning about this kind of thing, he will definitely not take care of it.
Because everyone knew that it was impossible for them to find mercy in their emperor.
The most obvious characteristic of their cold-blooded emperor is the survival of the fittest!
He has already distributed the disaster relief funds, and you still want him to take care of how these people will live in the future?
As for whether it will cause riots, men are not afraid of chaos in the world.
He openly killed all the royal family members and used eunuchs as his predecessors to usurp the throne. He was not afraid at all that the whole world would rise up against him!
So it’s better to find the lady. A word from the lady is better than them kneeling down and breaking their legs!
Even their thoughts could not be hidden from Governor Ning, so they couldn't help but feel uneasy!
Sure enough, the man who had been playing with the woman's fingers lazily with his charming eyes lowered, now slowly raised his face, revealing a playful and mocking smile between his thin lips, "You are quite capable, this lord..."
Before he could finish his words, a small hand covered his mouth.
Then the owner of the little hand smiled at everyone with his eyes curved, "It's easy!"
A group of ministers who were shrinking their necks and preparing to face the anger were shocked when they saw Ning Cuo's mouth suddenly covered.
Then they heard Xiao Tu say it was simple, and they immediately lost their composure.
"Holy Queen, you mean simple, right?"
Facing these incredulous faces, Xiao Tu smiled and nodded, "It's very simple, I'll take care of it!"
"Is this true?" Master Ji's eyes flashed with a strong light.
The remaining few people also stared at Xiao Tu with wide eyes, not daring to blink, for fear that all this was an illusion.
Originally, they came here today just to ask the Holy Queen to be kind and improve the lives of the people affected by the disaster.
But from what the Holy Queen said, there is actually a direct solution?
This, this is the problem that has troubled the previous dynasty, no, it has troubled countless dynasties.
Even if it is recorded in history books, after such natural disasters occurred, the people in the disaster areas were lucky enough to survive!
Xiao Tu didn't let them wait for long. She covered the man's mouth with one hand and said directly, "For disaster-stricken areas like these, the main problem is the lack of money.
You can directly pass the order to the imperial envoys in charge of disaster relief in various places and tell them that after the disaster relief is over, banks, that is, money shops, will be opened in various places.
I call on wealthy families everywhere to deposit their money. I'll set a limit on the number of years and offer a higher interest rate. The longer you deposit, the more interest you'll get. It would be best if you also offer them some benefits they can't refuse, such as preventing the descendants of merchants from taking the imperial examinations. You can consider this."
Ji Xueshi's eyes immediately lit up, "Could it be that the Holy Queen wants to use this money..."
Xiao Tu nodded. "Once you get this money, use it in the name of the government to lend it to the people affected by the disaster. No matter what the people need, they can borrow it from the government. Just pay a reasonable interest rate, and give them hope of paying it back."
Scholar Ji clapped his hands excitedly, "Brilliant! The method the Holy Queen proposed is truly brilliant. Your method directly provides the people with a way to survive!"
But after saying this, his brows furrowed again, "But what if ordinary people can't pay back the money they borrowed?"
