"Respond to the call and take the lead in donating. This food will be shipped directly to the three affected continents. Along the way, play music and drums to let the people along the way know about you. In addition, you must..."
As Bei Yutang spoke, the smile on Lei Yuting's lips slowly faded and his brows furrowed.
"I see." Lei Yuting couldn't help but admire her, "I have to go there in person to see this matter."
Bei Yutang took out a bottle of pills. "These are antidote pills. If Young Master Lei Gong is going there, take one to avoid infection. After a great disaster, there will be a great plague. Young Master Lei, please be careful."
"Madam Mu, would you like to go with us?" Lei Yuting invited.
"My child is studying recently and I have to take care of him." Bei Yutang politely declined.
"If Madam Mu is about to come out, don't forget me."
Lei Yuting knew that she would definitely come out, otherwise what would be the use of the medicinal herbs and food she had purchased.
"must."
After the two finished their conversation, they left.

Gu Mansion
"Right now, the three major prefectures of Yanzhou, Chongzhou and Yizhou have suffered the most serious disasters. All the rice in the nearby Yuzhou, Fengzhou and Jingzhou has been flooded due to the continuous rainfall. Today's harvest is probably gone. The prefectures in other places have all suffered disasters to varying degrees." Gu Yun reported the news he had heard outside in one breath.
The person sitting behind the desk frowned slightly, as if thinking about something.
"Miss, if we transport grain now, it will probably be a drop in the bucket." Gu Yun probably guessed the young lady's purpose.
The eldest daughter of their family is kind-hearted. Even though the family is in such a difficult situation, she still cares about the people. She is not like those unscrupulous businessmen who only know how to hoard food and make dirty money.
"How is the government's fundraising going?" Gu Pianran asked.
Gu Yun's face lit up with sarcasm as he spoke of this. "Officials in the court are still arguing endlessly over the issue of grain. Civil officials advocate for sending grain to the disaster-stricken areas, while military officials advocate for sending grain to the front lines. Both sides are arguing, and there's still no conclusion."
"By the time they reach their conclusion, we don't know how many people affected by the disaster will have died."
There is a war at the border and a major disaster in the interior. Both of them consume money and food. No matter which side is more urgent, the other side will definitely be affected.
Just as Gu Yun said, there was still a big argument about this matter in the court.
The military officer believed that if the army had no food, after the Jin and Wu states were conquered, not to mention disaster relief, the entire Southern Tang state would become a conquered nation.
Civil officials believed that the people were the foundation of the country. If all the people died, there would be no country.
The two sides argued endlessly about this.
The food that is now being transported to the three continents is all collected from various merchants. This food is nothing but a drop in the bucket for the people affected by the disaster in several states.
"Gu Yun, ask the accountant to come over." Gu Pianran already had a plan in mind.
The more they did so, the better it was for her.
When the government abandoned them, someone stood up and solved the problem first. Both the court and the people will definitely remember it in their hearts.
"yes."
As soon as Gu Yun left, Gu Pianran wrote two letters and ordered the maid to quietly deliver the two letters to Tang Jingyu and Gu Fanzhi.
After doing all this, he called Gu Qing over.
"Miss, Young Master Gu Qing is here." Dongmei walked into the study.
