After all, Chu Mobai’s reputation in the capital city for debate is not bad, and it can even be said to be quite good.
And even as some people were already making donations, a group of people from outside the city actually ran in.
These people had naturally contacted Qian Ruoyu in advance. After learning that they could donate military supplies, they naturally ran into the city as soon as possible.
These people outside the city are exactly the villagers from the villages outside the capital.
When the villagers heard about this, they all tried to contact Qian Ruoyu and follow him into the capital.
Now they have finally arrived at the gate of the palace, and they are all shouting loudly.
"I'll come, I'll come, let me come!"
"The prince did save us. The prince did not give up on us at the critical moment. I want to donate military supplies to the prince!"
“I want one too!”
"The prince has not given up on us. The prince is a good prince!"
After he finished speaking, a large group of villagers rushed over and started donating one by one. Although the amount was not large, it was very encouraging.
The most money donated by the villagers was only five or six thousand yuan, but even so, it greatly boosted their enthusiasm.
After seeing this scene, more and more people in Beijing naturally began to line up and make continuous donations.
In just a few moments, a large box was filled with various silver and copper coins.
Yan'er immediately ordered the people around her to start changing the boxes.
Another empty box was placed in the front, while the large box in the front had already been placed on the carriage.
In just half an incense stick of time, four large boxes were filled. Then, Yan'er began to order the guests to push the carriage towards the outside of Jincheng, ready to deliver it directly to Chu Mobai.
She said even louder.
"Please rest assured, all the money you donated will be sent directly to the military camp. If there are those who don't believe it, you can follow the carriage to the camp outside the capital now."
"This donation is very direct. All the money will be sent directly to the prince. And I want to tell you that the prince has no idea about this matter. When he sees this money, he will probably be very moved!"
Right after she said this, everyone was even more shocked. After all, at first some people thought that it was Chu Mobai who initiated it.
Now that they knew it was not Chu Mobai who took the initiative, they became even more enthusiastic. After all, they all wanted to give Chu Mobai a surprise.
And right after that, a horse-drawn carriage was indeed delivered to the gate of the military camp, followed by a dozen civilians who wanted to see if it was true.
The escort of this carriage was none other than Golden Lotus.
When they saw Golden Lotus, the two soldiers guarding the gate of the camp made way for her without hesitation, allowing her to easily enter the barracks.
When Chu Mobai, who was originally in the battle, saw this scene, his face showed a slight shock.
Because he had never thought about why Jin Lianhua would send a box of silver here.
Jin Lianhua then revealed Qian Ruoyu's plan, and when Chu Mobai heard this plan, he was extremely shocked.
Because he could never have imagined that Qian Ruoyu would come up with such an idea for him. To him, this idea was simply ingenious and he had never thought of it before.
And the most important thing is to help him solve his urgent problems.
Although he had indeed obtained a full one million taels of silver from the Ministry of Revenue, this one million taels of silver was still a difficult task for his camp.
Because that sum of silver should have been released several months ago, and should have been released to the soldiers under him. Now it has been delayed for two months. After it was released all at once, there were other overdue payments that had to be settled. Chu Mobai actually had less than 100,000 taels of silver in his hands.
Of the one million taels of silver, only 100,000 taels were left in the end, and the most important thing was that these 100,000 taels were still surplus.
The original plan was just 900,000 taels.
Therefore, when he only had 100,000 taels of silver in his hand, it was enough to make Chu Mobai feel distressed. The situation was stretched!
Because these 100,000 taels of silver might be spent at any time, and once spent, he would be in a deficit again, and he didn't know how to talk to his soldiers.
Therefore, seeing so much silver all of a sudden also shocked him.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty. The Princess has already made all the arrangements. You just need to receive all the money!"
After hearing this, Chu Mobai nodded slightly and said to Jin Lianhua.
"Sorry for the trouble along the way!"
Jin Lianhua also immediately lowered her head and spoke respectfully.
"This is what Lotus should do, but the next thing for the prince is still left to you. Lotus will go back to take charge of the next carriage."
Just after Chu Mobai nodded, Jin Lianhua left. However, when she just returned to the gate of the palace, she saw a fully loaded carriage.
Naturally, Golden Lotus did not stop at all and started to transport the next carriage directly to the outside of the capital.
Qian Ruoyu was watching the situation at the gate of the palace and found that the total amount of donations had reached 20,000 taels of silver.
Although this was a large sum of money, it was still too little. However, Qian Ruoyu saw more and more people crowding outside. Qian Ruoyu even noticed that some wealthy people in the capital had also come.
Qian Ruoyu thought that if these wealthy people could bring in a large donation, it would naturally be a good thing.
At this moment, a man who looked like a master walked towards Qian Ruoyu and seemed to want to cut in line. Naturally, he was despised by the others.
However, after he came over, he did not make any donation, but instead tried to talk to Qian Ruoyu.
He first spoke a few words to a maid, and then the maid came to Qian Ruoyu and spoke carefully.
"My lady, that person just now wanted to talk to you about something related to donations."
After hearing this, Qian Ruoyu nodded slightly, and then went to the side door of the palace with the other party.
The other person looked somewhat shrewd, and the clothes he wore were rather bright and colorful, but compared with the clothes in the palace, they were still several levels lower.
He immediately introduced himself.
"Hello, Madam. I run a pawnshop on West Street. I have three shops and have made a little money. I came here because everyone asked me to discuss a few things with Madam..."
