Chapter 399: Xin''an is still the key moment


    Tang Gang was still lost in the wealth of the salt merchant. Tang Mo and Xin An came hand in hand. Looking at the gifts in the room, Xin Tang Mo looked through a few of them and joked, "Father has gained a lot today."


    Xin An sat down aside. In her opinion, the gifts were still a bit perfunctory.


    In the eyes of salt merchants, these are all gifts like panacea, and any high-ranking official can get such a gift.


    "Please take all these things."


    The house quickly became refreshing, and Xin Kuan and Xin Huan came with alcohol. The father and son drank the most today, and even after lying for a while, they still felt uncomfortable.


    After they had drunk tea, they felt a little more comfortable. Xin An asked first, "Does my father have a constitution?"


    "This matter cannot be delayed for too long."


    Tang Gang had already come back to his senses, and after putting down the teacup, he sighed, "It''s all old foxes, and everything they say is yes, and there is no substantive word."


    Tang Mo nodded and agreed, "I think even if they were given a plaque or something, they would not be moved. Many people have plaques from Jishan House given by the late emperor or the emperor."


    Xin Kuan and Xin Huan did not speak, just waited for the constitution.


    Tang Gang only felt a headache. Seeing that he wanted to use a trick to get rid of the firewood from the cauldron to find the evidence of the salt merchant to threaten others, Xin An knew that he had no good idea.


    After thinking for a while, the corner of his lips curled gently and looked at Tang Gang, "Father, I have a way to let you raise far more than one million silver, even tens of millions of taels, tens of millions of taels, so that the court will not have to worry about money for several years, and can make you make great contributions. Of course, you also have to take risks. I wonder if my father is willing to hear it?"


    As soon as these words came out, several people''s eyes focused on her. Xin Kuan was a little anxious and didn''t want her to show off too much. He knew what Tang Gang''s virtue was. It would be okay to say that things were done. If they failed, they would turn against each other.


    Tang Mo was also a little curious, but he didn''t blame Xin An for not telling him.


    Tang Gang didn''t believe that she could really have any great skills besides the backyard tricks. In his eyes, even if she went out to make friends, she would mostly be the best way to make money and she would give gifts.


    Xin An saw his suspicion, but she was very confident in her thoughts. From the way back, she was thinking about this matter, how to make the emperor happy, how to make those rich people willingly donate generously, and even continue to do so.


    After returning, I went to see the salt merchants with my own eyes and took my thoughts into shape in my heart last night.


    In her opinion, one million is still too little. It should not be the emperor’s true intention. To raise funds, the more, the better.


    "Don''t my father want to listen?"


    Tang Gang smiled indifferently, "Tell me what you want?"


    Xin An straightened his back and "opened a charity hall."


    “Charity Hall?”


    Xin Huan said there is a charity hall in the city, and there is more than one place.


    Tang Gang didn''t care, so he knew that he shouldn''t have any expectations. Xin An said: "There are many types of charity halls. There are charity halls in the city and charity halls. But these are all small fuss. What if a charity hall is opened in the name of the court?"


    "The charity hall can help orphans, elderly people, students, etc., and do anything, but what we want is this name."


    "It is claimed that the court opened a charity hall and invited people of aspiring to contribute to the country. No matter how much they contribute, they will be registered. They will be worshipped in front of the Bodhisattva in the name of the yamen. Those who donated more than 50,000 taels will engrave their names on the inscriptions. Those who donated 100,000 taels will write books and biography for them. The highest is 100,000 taels. The charity hall will raise funds once every ten years. During this period, no one is allowed to raise funds without authorization. Violators will be punished with serious crimes."


    Her eyes flashed over the people, "One hundred thousand taels are not difficult for salt merchants. Donating once every ten years can reassure them that someone in the middle asked them to pay. They have money, but they are afraid that the fundraising will never end."


    "Dad, if you are, will you do it?"


    Xin Kuan smiled, "I would be happier if I were given a plaque written by the emperor again. What is the name of the Charity Hall? If it were Xin''s Charity Hall, I would like to pay another 200,000."


    Tang Mo was excited, "Improve it more, for example, the court issued an announcement to state the various clauses, for example, unless the family and country are in the moment of survival, no one is allowed to raise funds in the name of the court and the charity hall. In addition to the heavy punishment, they can also supervise each other, and the report is true and the reward of silver is a thousand taels, etc., to increase the reliability of this matter."


    Tang Gang asked, "Can the charity hall use so much money?"


    "It''s not useful, but hasn''t my father achieved the purpose of this trip?"


    Xin An said: "If you don''t need it, you will pay it to the treasury hall and take it to the people for use. For example, improving the conditions of soldiers, such as building bridges and paving roads, instead of raising a million taels of donations at a time, it is better to let others pay for fun at one time, so that they can feel at ease for a few years."


    Tang Gang asked Xin Kuan how much money could be raised in Huaijiang if this were the case. Xin Kuan thought about it, "If all the people participated, it could not be less than seven or eight million taels, and tens of million taels were possible."


    Tang Mo took a deep breath, "If you succeed in Huaijiang, you can open it nationwide. How much money should you have?"


    Xin An bewitched Tang Gang, "If this matter was raised in the court, my father might not have won such a good thing, but now you are in Huaijiang, is there anyone more suitable than you?"


    "If you can get a national inspection fundraising errand, then you will really make great contributions. Bad is that you will be stared at by many people. Everything has its pros and cons."


    Tang Gang was moved. He was conservative and unwilling to advance. He wanted to defend the glory of the Hou Mansion, but he still envied those who made great achievements. Xin An’s proposal was still at a low risk. As long as he brought benefits to most people, there would be no big problems.


    Xin An reiterated one because he was afraid that he would think wrongly, "Since it is charity, charity must be the first. This requires a charter, such as funding students to study, funding students who are short of money to seek fame, etc. This is best implemented and needs to be more detailed."


    "The amount of money raised is left to the charity hall, and the amount of money paid to the treasury must be clearly stated, and you have to discuss this."


    Tang Mo felt it was very good, and it was true that at critical moments, it still depends on his wife.


    Xin Kuan even looked at his daughter with admiration. He is truly a person with adventure.


    Xin Huan was already staring, and saw his sister admiring her, "This suggestion is that everyone can get benefits. It''s better to just say that the emperor cares about the people. In this way, the emperor has also gained a good reputation. The treasury gets silver and is proud to donate small money. After all, it is to contribute to the country, and donate 100,000 yuan to gain. That is the imperial court personally wrote a book and biography. This is a glory that can be bought for just 100,000 taels?"


    The key is that it only takes once every ten years. What if this good thing will not happen in ten years?


    So there may be only one chance. He has begun to fantasize that his name is engraved on the stone tablet and that the court will write books and biography for him. A hundred years later, he will be a very glorious ancestor.
