Chapter 34 I am donating to charity

The half-grown children must have grown up now, right?

I also have a brother who is an official.

Is it still possible to behave like such bandits now?

Feng Ying had money sitting on his butt, and he felt even less at ease: "Having too much money is also a problem. With so much money, I'm afraid others will take notice."

【Then donate it! Money is just a thing outside of our body. 】

That won’t do. This is the money I got from selling my aunt, how can I donate it?

If she donated it, it would be great if she could let Xiao Yi become her aunt.

"Drive!" Feng Ying was thinking when a man riding a tall horse and a group of people came from the mountain road in another direction.

The man was only wearing ordinary clothes. He had a handsome appearance, about thirty years old, but he had a scar on his face, which made him look very fierce.

I don't know whether they are government officials, bandits, or an ordinary team.

Feng Ying was extremely nervous. He clenched his fist with his teeth and his body was shaking.

"What are you doing? What's in the truck?" Scarface's tone wasn't actually vicious, just a little serious, like a patrolman doing an inspection.

Feng Ying couldn't hold back any more, so he knelt down and said, "Donate money for charity, the money in the car is all for you, donate it all, don't hurt anyone."

Everyone: “…”

The people from Xiao Yi's faction stepped forward and explained their identities.

Then he asked, "Who are these brothers?"

It's definitely not a bandit. How could a bandit come here in broad daylight?

"We are General Wang Shichang's subordinates."

A dark-skinned fat boy next to the chief answered.

"Isn't General Wang Shichang fighting in the southwest?"

The dynasty’s biggest enemy now is the Turks in the northwest, but small-scale harassment often occurs in other places. There is a witchcraft tribe in the southwest that often robs and kills people on the border.

When they are powerful, they may break through the defense and attack Luoyang.

The King of Luoyang attached great importance to this place. Not only did he send Wang Shichang to guard the border, he would also visit in person from time to time.

"War costs money. We don't have enough food and rations, so the general sent us back to collect money and rations." The fat man said, glancing at the scarred leader.

As soon as he finished speaking, the scarred man immediately asked Feng Ying: "Madam, do you really want to donate?"

Feng Ying: “…”

The person sent by Xiao Yi said, "Madam, you were just joking."

"So there is really money in the car?" asked Scarface.

Xiao Yi's men were already on guard, ready to fight if the other side did anything improper.

"How pitiful!" Scarface sighed, "Those soldiers at the border had no food, and they had to stay at the pass for fourteen days without even a bite to eat."

Feng Ying: “…”

"Sir, this should be a matter for senior officials, and it is not something our wife can have the final say on." A Liu said.

The man looked at Ah Liu and nodded, "Indeed!"

Then he began to chant: "Every man has his share of responsibility for the fate of his country!"

"Alas, we are all born and raised by our parents. My brothers have to go hungry and fight off the enemy, while some people just want to eat, drink and have fun in the city."

"There's nothing we can do. We brothers were born by animals, while other people were born by their parents..."

"Okay, I'll donate!" Feng Ying blurts out.

Then I looked at my daughter. She hadn't said anything, so she probably meant the same thing.

Scarface smiled, looking a little cunning.

Feng Ying: “…”

[Just donate like this? There must be some benefit, such as a position as an official.] Li Jidao shook his head secretly. This mother is a little too honest.

Feng Ying thought to himself, Li Zhengchun is going to harm me, why should I ask him for an official position?

"I can donate it, but this money is 30,000 guan, I must have something in return, right? Can you make the decision? I will donate the official position." Feng Ying asked Scarface, give it to his younger brother, and don't tell the Li family.

Scarface hesitated for a moment and said, "Well, I do have an official position that I can arrange for you, my lady."

Scarface said, "The Jishitang in the city is short of an official. Madam, take this letter of recommendation and go to the hall to report."

Scarface tore off a small seal from his waist, and then the fat black man immediately took out a pen and paper. Scarface asked about Feng Ying's family situation, wrote a letter of recommendation, stamped it, and handed the letter to Feng Ying.

Feng Ying had a speechless look on his face. How could something written now be counted?

Scarface suddenly laughed and said, "My lady, you must be afraid that I will deceive you, right? Then why not tell me that I am Wang Shichang. They dare not deny me face. If they don't, I won't fight this battle."

"You are Wang Shichang?" Feng Ying was even more unconvinced: "How come you are so young?"

"Why, young people can't be generals? Can't fight in wars?" Wang Shichang said, "That lady has never seen the King of Luoyang. The King of Luoyang is only fourteen years old this year, but he was on the battlefield when he was eleven."

"I've never lost a battle. Isn't that annoying?"

Li Jidao nodded secretly: [The King of Luoyang is a natural commander. Others can’t command as many soldiers as they have, but the King of Luoyang is good at commanding as many as possible.]

Feng Ying: "In that case, then..."

She took a look at the car. It was 30,000 kan. 30,000 kan.

Just change this thing?

"Is this a job where I get paid every day? What if I run out of money? You won't let me pay for it myself, right?"

In Feng Ying's impression, Jishitang is the place that takes care of the elderly, the weak and the disabled.

She donated 30,000 kan, and we ask her to continue donating money?

Even the salt seller doesn't have that much money.

Wang Shichang looked at the car and then at the hesitant Feng Ying. He whispered, "This is a lucrative position. It belongs to the Inner Court Department and is directly managed by the royal family. Luoyang City is naturally under the management of the King of Luoyang. Otherwise, I would not dare to introduce it to my wife in such a grand manner."

"A seventh-rank official is a height that even a son may not be able to reach after several years of hard work."

"If you weren't a woman, you wouldn't be able to do it."

Feng Ying asked: "Why, only women can be officials?"

"Of course, the officials of Jishitang have always been women, and you don't have to pay for it. Once you go there, you will know that this is a lucrative job."

After Wang Shichang finished speaking, he called another soldier and asked him to quickly go to the city to greet Feng Ying first, so that the prince would not arrange for someone else.

The minor official has gone.

Wang Shichang didn't care about that. He waved his hand and said, "Thank you, my lady. Military affairs cannot be delayed. I will say goodbye here. We will meet again later."

Feng Ying: “…”

Just get them off the bus.

Now that I have the money, do you also want the oxcart?

Feng Ying led Li Jidao and others down from the cart and asked, "Do you want an ox cart too?"

Wang Shichang nodded and said, "Otherwise it will be bad luck."

Feng Ying: “…”

Yes, what we encountered were bandits, bandits backed by the state.

"Madam, did you really take all of it? Thirty thousand guan, you won't leave even a hundred guan? It would be nice to give it to Madam Jian as a dowry." Ah Liu said regretfully.

Feng Ying: She wanted it too, but she didn’t dare to ask for it.

Ah Liu said again: "Otherwise, the ten guans would be fine too. That would be enough for Madam Ah Jian to buy some new clothes and make a new headdress."

"Otherwise, it's better to keep it as a reminder." Ah Liu shook his head regretfully.
