On the fourth day of December, the sky was just beginning to brighten.
A group of hundreds of imperial guards left the camp with dozens of carriages and headed towards Nanshan.
This was Fu Xiaoguan's request to Huo Huaijin last night. For this purpose, he specially asked Yu Wenjun to return to the palace again to ask for His Majesty's decree.
Almost at this time, all the lights in the slums of Jinling were lit up, and wisps of smoke rose from the roofs, melting the falling snow.
Last night, Lu Xiaodong brought Fu Xiaoguan's words here, and within just one or two hours, the news spread throughout the slums.
People rushed to tell each other and couldn't help but feel happy!
No one doubted that what Lu Xiaodong said was false, because although they had never seen Fu Xiaoguan, they had already heard of the name of this legend.
Especially the refugees who came from both sides of the Yellow River this year, they knew all about the charitable work done by Young Master Fu.
"He's a living Bodhisattva. Last year, he built a huge business in Xishan to help more than 30,000 refugees. Now those people have taken root in Xishan and are living very well. This is true!"
"So... in order to solve our livelihood problem, Young Master Fu has established another business in Nanshan?"
"Of course it is like that. Master Fu is not someone who is short of money. He is the son-in-law of His Majesty! Even if His Majesty eats a cake, he should give him half. Do you think he needs to do this? It is for us to earn some money."
"I heard from merchants from Yongning that after Young Master Fu wiped out the palace bandits, he also established businesses in Pingling and Quyi counties to solve the livelihood problems of the people there. It is said that he has employed nearly 100,000 people!"
"God has opened his eyes and sent Master Fu to save us. Otherwise, why wouldn't he even become the Emperor of the Wu Dynasty?"
“…”
Regardless of whether human nature is evil or good, after Fu Xiaoguan spread this hope in the vast slums, the people here, regardless of gender, age or status, were all grateful.
Of course, there are also lazy people and thieves here, but if there is a legitimate job in front of them, they will still struggle with the choice.
Some people will try to earn some money with their own hands, and of course there are also people who are unwilling to leave here, and just want to live the rest of their lives with one person feeding the whole family.
Lu Xiaodong and his family got up very early.
Lu Zhaodi was lighting a fire in front of the stove. The flames reflected on her tender cheeks, which were filled with joy that had not faded from last night until now.
Zhao poured the washed sorghum into the pot, thought for a moment, and then grabbed two handfuls of brown rice. "Zhao Di, be careful. Once it's open, open the lid a little to prevent it from overflowing."
"Yeah." Lu Zhaodi responded, but her mind was still thinking about what her father said, that the eldest young master of the Fu family would come in person today - what kind of person is the eldest young master of the Fu family?
Due to her young age and limited experience, Lu Zhaodi was unable to imagine what Young Master Fu looked like in her mind, and in the end she could only use a certain wealthy man who used to give out porridge in her hometown as a reference - he was roughly wearing a bright and beautiful thick cotton-padded jacket, a furry fur hat, a chubby face, and a body as fat as a barrel.
Only people from wealthy families who eat well could look like that. Otherwise, why are all the people in the village so skinny?
Zhao packed her luggage very simply, with two bundles and one box to pack all her things. Only then did she realize that she had been away from home for half a year, and she had the same things when she came and when she left.
Life is like a circle.
I hope I can get out of this circle this time.
…
…
Chen time.
The sky was not very bright.
Captain Jin of the Jinling government arrived at this slum area ahead of time with a thousand Jingyu Guards. He divided the troops into groups of 100 and stationed them at each street corner.
Lord Fu is coming here, and Lord Ning has given a death order - Lord Fu must not have any accidents!
The current Lord Fu is different from the Lord Fu of last year. Captain Jin understands this very well. If the poor people here really hurt Lord Fu, I am afraid no one here will survive!
These untouchables!
In the past, Captain Jin would have ridden his tall horse and shouted a few times in these narrow streets that were like spider webs, warning these untouchables to abide by the rules, but today he didn't say a word, because Lord Ning said... Lord Fu didn't like this.
Lord Fu actually said that all men are created equal!
Captain Jin didn't quite understand what this meant, but since Lord Ning had given the order, he naturally had no choice but to do it.
This slum area seemed quite lively today, but after visiting many houses, Captain Jin discovered that this liveliness was actually full of peace, rather than the violent nature of the past. Could it be that it was because of Lord Fu's plan that these people changed their temperament?
Captain Jin didn't understand what was going on. He patrolled the blocks majestically, and the people here lowered their voices even more after seeing these detectives.
Fu Xiaoguan brought Dong Shulan and Yan Xiaolou here in a carriage.
The three of them got off the carriage, and Susu and Surou followed behind them. Surou was still holding the embroidery needle but was not embroidering, and Susu also carried the huge zither case on her back - yesterday, the eldest senior brother sent a message saying that two forces were coming to Jinling, one of which was from the Wu Dynasty, headed by Gao Xian, and Gao Xian's strength had reached the first-class level.
The second is from Xirong, the third elder of the Moon Worship Sect, a childlike figure, who has emerged from Minshan Mountain and is heading towards Jinling. The third elder of the Moon Worship Sect is proficient in the art of disguise, and the Taoist temple does not know his true identity. His strength is also first-rate, so be extremely careful!
This guy is not a person who can be taken lightly!
Su Su looked at Fu Xiaoguan's back, but she admired him very much.
It is probably impossible to find someone as weird as Fu Xiaoguan in this world.
Captain Jin dismounted and bowed to Fu Xiaoguan. "Your humble servant is following Lord Ning's orders to be on guard here. Please be careful, Lord Fu!"
"No problem."
Fu Xiaoguan waved his hand casually, and Captain Jin summoned a hundred Jingyu Guards to surround Fu Xiaoguan tightly in the center.
Don't be so exaggerated!
Fu Xiaoguan was a little depressed. He felt like those young celebrities in his previous life, who had to have someone to lead the way for them when they went out.
But then he thought again, he had two wives by his side, and the eldest brother’s warning could not be ignored.
So he walked into the slums, met Lu Xiaodong, and finally came to an open area in the center of the slums.
"I am Fu Xiaoguan."
"By order of His Majesty, we have established many workshops in Nanshan to solve your living problems."
"I won't say more. Those who are willing to go to Nanshan will leave soon."
"Wages are paid daily, fifty wen for the young and old, thirty wen for the young."
"Remember, you earned your money with your own hands, so don't..."
Before Fu Xiaoguan finished speaking, a large group of people knelt on the ground excitedly.
"Thank you, Master Fu, for saving my life!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your great grace!"
"Living Bodhisattva, we will offer you a long-lasting tablet for generations to come!"
“…”
At this, Fu Xiaoguan boosted his energy and shouted, "Let's go!"
He turned around and left, but Shangjing was in an uproar at this moment!
