647 build momentum, do good things and remember to write them down
After giving the medicine to Sun Sixing, Feng Qingchen did not return to the ward, but returned to his own yard and called Tong Jue and Tong Yao.
"Tong Jue, Tong Yao, the heavy snow has not stopped in the past few days. Are many people affected by the heavy snow? Has the number of people who have fallen ill increased during this period?"
"Miss, yes. Every year when there is a heavy snowfall, many people get sick or freeze to death. Today's snow is particularly heavy. Although it has been smaller in the past few days, it has not stopped. In many places, houses have collapsed under the snow. Many people have died. The resettlement hall of the government is crowded with people, and the number of people suffering from frostbite has also increased sharply."
Tong Jue and Tong Yao knew that because of the heavy snow, many officials were dismissed for dereliction of duty...
Disasters are both tests and opportunities for officials.
Every time a natural disaster occurs, many officials are dismissed for dereliction of duty, while many officials seize the opportunity to perform outstandingly and rise to high positions.
You said that when faced with natural disasters, there are no officials who truly seek benefits for the people?
Yes, of course. If you don’t speak up for the people and seek benefits for the people, how can you achieve political achievements? How can you get promoted?
Before you become an official, you may be full of enthusiasm and want to be an honest and good official. But when you really enter the officialdom, you will find that all you have to do is climb up. If you don’t climb up, you will be stepped down by others. At that time, you will not be able to realize any of your ambitions.
If you want to do things for the people, you must have enough power. The higher your official position, the more you can do for the people. If you want to become a high-ranking official, you must seize every opportunity to climb up.
The natural disaster is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity for promotion. If you seize it, you will not only gain the reputation of a good official who petitions for the people, but you will also be promoted step by step. And Feng Qingchen...
She knew she was shameless, but she still wanted to take advantage of this natural disaster.
"Tong Jue, Tong Yao, what do you think about me going outside the city to provide free medical treatment?" Feng Qingchen admitted that her motives were not pure, but... she was also doing her part for the people.
If she were an official, she would also be the kind of official who makes political achievements to climb up the career ladder. Although her motives are not pure, the people will be the ultimate beneficiaries.
"Free clinic? Miss, that's great, but it's very tiring, and you're so busy, how can you find the time?" Tong Jue and Tong Yao were of course happy about their young lady's move, but...
The problem is, once the free clinic starts, it cannot be abandoned halfway.
"It's snowing so heavily, what else can I do? What I have to do now is to bury my parents properly, but I can't do it unless the snow stops. Before the snow stops, there is still time for the free clinic, just consider it as... my prayers for my parents." She is being watched now, and she has to be careful with every move. Instead of planning in fear, it is better to magnify her every move, put it in the sun, and let everyone look at it.
"Miss, if you want to pray for the master and the mistress, we should not only hold a free clinic, but also provide free porridge. But food is so expensive now, and we only have enough food in our house. We can't afford to spend any extra food on charity." Doing good deeds is a good thing, but the premise is to do it within your means.
If you are about to starve to death and still help others, that is not doing good, that is being stupid. Feng Qingchen does not think that he is so noble.
"Don't worry about the food. I'll find a way. Tong Jue and Tong Yao, go find out how serious the situation is outside. Only then can I decide what to do." Su Wenqing would definitely not be short of food. She went to Su Wenqing to discuss it. If Su Wenqing came out to do charity with her at this time, then...
This matter is extremely beneficial to the Ninth Prince. Don't forget, she and Su Wenqing are both the Ninth Prince's people.
"Yes, Miss." Tong Jue and Tong Yao didn't know Feng Qingchen's plan. They only knew that she wanted to do good deeds, so they stopped trying to persuade her and immediately went to inquire about the disaster situation in the imperial city.
Feng Qingchen was not idle either. She had someone send an invitation and asked Su Wenqing to come to her house. She had something to discuss. As for why she asked Su Wenqing to come instead of her going to Su Wenqing directly?
Needless to say, why would she go out in such heavy snow? Besides, she is in deep mourning now, so it is better for her to stay out and avoid attracting other people's attention.
Whether or not to distribute porridge depends on how much food Su Wenqing has, but free medical consultation can definitely be carried out. Feng Qingchen came to the cabin, activated the smart bag, and took out all the medicines that might be used, taking as many as possible.
Feng Qingchen didn't feel sorry at all. When all the medicines were taken, she would exchange them back. She provided free medical treatment to save lives. If the medical ethics system didn't increase her medical ethics points, she would smash this broken smart bag.
It’s not smart, it’s too inhumane.
There was a room full of medicines, and Feng Qingchen labeled them one by one for easy access. After finishing all this, Feng Qingchen was already sweating profusely. She wanted to go back to take a shower, but she heard Chun Hui come to report: "Miss, Master Su is here."
"So soon? Let's go." Feng Qingchen thought that Su Wenqing would arrive at the earliest tomorrow, but he didn't know that because of the heavy snow, the roads were blocked and Su Wenqing's business could not be done. He had been idle at home recently, looking at the information about Xuanxiao Palace every day, and his eyes were almost blurry. When he heard Feng Qingchen invite him, Su Wenqing threw the information away without saying a word, hitched the carriage and drove to Feng Qingchen's house.
He is not being lazy, he has important things to do!
What kind of relationship does Feng Qingchen have with Su Wenqing? Second only to Lan Jiuqing, Feng Qingchen was not polite at all and immediately told her plan. Of course...
What she had to do was not to provide free porridge and medical treatment in the imperial city, but to all the disaster-stricken areas in Dongling.
To win the hearts of the people, they must of course make a bigger move. Even though doing so will cause the emperor's dissatisfaction, they cannot care about that at the moment. If they care about whether the emperor is satisfied or not, they can forget about saving the Ninth Uncle.
Besides, this is a good thing that benefits the country and the people. No matter how dissatisfied the emperor is, he will not say anything on the surface.
“This is a good idea, but...how can we link this matter to the Ninth Prince?” They are using the Feng family and the Su family as their banner, and the pretext of praying for Feng Qingchen’s parents. How can the uninformed people link this matter to the Ninth Prince? If they don’t contact the Ninth Prince, is there any point in them winning over the hearts of the people?
"This is easy to do. You can have people mix in with the disaster victims and have them spread the word that the free porridge and free clinics were all Uncle Ninth's idea. It's just that Uncle Ninth angered the emperor and was imprisoned by him. Uncle Ninth is not convenient to show up, so he had to let the Su and Feng houses show up. Uncle Ninth is doing good deeds without leaving a name."
You don’t have to leave your name behind when you do good deeds, but you must write them down in a notebook. This way... other people will know that you did good deeds. Moreover, doing so will make it more credible than carelessly using the Ninth Prince’s name. The people will also be more grateful and think that the Ninth Prince is not just doing you a favor, but is truly caring about the people.
Just think about it, a prince is always thinking about the people even in prison, doing so much for the people but not wanting people to know. How great and noble this is.
If there was a publicity department, Feng Qingchen was sure that the Ninth Prince would be made into the Person of the Year and become a role model for the people of the world...
