When entering Henan Mansion, the head of the guard looked better. The earth was rejuvenating, tender shoots appeared, and the snow on both sides of the road began to melt slowly. The affected people were busy repairing their collapsed houses, and the injured were receiving treatment at the hospital. Free medical treatment, some people distribute food and cotton-padded clothes for relief between towns and cities, and receive them with household registration.

   And these are not done by the yamen, but organized spontaneously by good folks.

  The chief guard followed Li Baolu and watched her take the account book from these people. Only then did he know that these relief supplies were bought with money from selling military books.

   He also inquired about prices along the way, and found that the materials they donated were much higher than what the money could buy. They should have special purchase channels.

   Perhaps influenced by this kindness, the local gentry and businessmen are also willing to open porridge sheds and gain a good reputation.

  Although the porridge water they supply in the porridge shed is very limited every day, they also feed some people.

   Gu Jingyun said sharply: "Why do this, they have to be sincere and kind, and reducing food prices a little is the greatest kindness."

   All the guards were silent, so it's fine to keep it in your heart, why say it?

   The head guard was staring at the people who were making padded padded jackets. Li Baolu floated beside him and interrupted his fantasy, "Don't think about it, these people don't know about our Lingtianmen."

   The head guard's expression tightened, and he pursed his lips and said nothing.

  Li Baolu then said: "There are still many good people in this world, and they don't want to pay for them. Just a little effort can change a good reputation. Most people are willing to do this transaction."

The head guard's eyes were cold, and the guards sent out at night came back to report, "Those who came out to help the victims did not know Lingtianmen, and the people in the medical center said that they received a sum of money long before the heavy snow, and entered according to the wishes of the customers. There are a lot of medicinal materials, after the snow disaster, the customer will come to the hospital and ask the hospital to treat the victims for free, and he will pay a fee for the consultation, and the medicinal materials needed will be purchased from the ones he bought, and the money from the poor victims cannot be collected.”

"Some of the people who sent relief food and cotton-padded quilts at the gate of the city came to help for free. They are all well-known local people. According to the investigation, they also received a batch of materials after the snow disaster and helped the victims according to the meaning of the good people. They built houses and distributed food and food for relief; some were merchants. They also received a sum of money before the heavy snowfall, and prepared food and food for relief according to the customer's wishes. After the snow disaster, the customer entrusted them to provide relief on their behalf. Disaster victims, this is a good deed, and if you do it well, the people of the city will remember their goodness, you only need to contribute, and you don’t need to spend money, so many businessmen are willing.”

  The long face of the guard was as deep as water, "Then the customer is not afraid that someone will be greedy for ink supplies and money?"

"My subordinates have also asked. Those people said that every expense should be recorded in a book, and no one knows whether that person will send someone to watch. That customer is very shrewd. People have done this before, but he knows all about it. Afterwards, not only did the person who was greedy for ink repay the money twice, but it also ruined that person's reputation, and he couldn't even stay in Henan Prefecture, so no one dared to do anything at all."

   The head guard frowned, "This really seems to be the work of Lingtianmen, but Lingtianmen has only one disciple from generation to generation, where did they come from so many people?"

  The guards looked at the head of the guards, but they didn't know it either.

   After thinking about it, the guards comforted: "Brother, let's leave this kind of thing to the adults in the DPRK to worry about. As long as we safely send the account book and people back to the capital, won't it be over?"

"Yeah, yeah," the round-faced guard nodded again and again, "We've all become friends with Mrs. Gu, so it's not easy to target her sect, she's the head of the sect now, and Lingtian Sect really doesn't. Don't all those corrupt officials deserve to be punished for what they have done? It's just for stealing some money from them."

The chief guard glared at him, "Corrupt officials should be punished, but that's also a matter of the imperial court. Use their Jianghu people to intervene? Don't forget your identity!"

   The chief guard paused and said, "Also, don't go to her for pork jerky again. You are so fat, can you still run after eating it?"

  The round-faced little guard pouted, and his round face was even more round. He muttered, "Don't you eat it too?"

   The captain of the guard stared, "What did you say?"

   "I didn't say anything," the round-faced little guard turned around and ran, shaking his hands, "Big Brother, I'll help you go undercover with Mrs. Gu, so they don't do bad things behind our backs again."

   The guards were angry: "Brother, he must be begging for food again. It's a shame for our guards, and he must be severely punished!"

   "Yes, lock him up and let me go undercover!"

   "Let me go. After all, I'm the second youngest, and I have a common language with Mrs. Gu."

   "But you and Mr. Gu must have no common language. Just because you dare to say these words, you won't be able to walk to Mrs. Gu's side..."

  …

   The bodyguard's veins protruded, and he shouted, "Get out of here, all of you!"

  The guards immediately dispersed, running out and bickering, "Look, it's all your fault, it's making big brother angry."

   "Sixth, it's all about you here, or we can get angry with Big Brother? Brothers, beat him up!"

   "Yes, beat him."

   "Ow, fifth brother, don't think I dare not hit you if you are older than me, but you dare to kick my ass!"

   "You slapped me in the face!"

   There was a crackling outside, apparently a fight broke out.

   The head guard rubbed his forehead with a headache. He has only been away from Beijing for three months. What should I do if these subordinates are getting more and more stupid?

   They thought that if they didn’t talk about those ministers in the DPRK, they wouldn’t be held accountable?

   Lingtianmen has such a big secret resource in their hands. It’s not because they don’t say it, the emperor and the courtiers can’t remember it. He is now diligently investigating for their Lingtianmen’s good.

   Otherwise, he wouldn't do this thankless thing, and the credit may not necessarily fall on him in the future.

   They like Lingtianmen and Bai Yitang's master and apprentice.

   The captain of the guard took a deep breath, rolled up his sleeves and rushed out. There are too many things to worry about, so let's fight first.

   At dinner, Li Baolu stood in front of them with an abacus.

  Li Baolu ignored them and just stared at the captain of the guard.

   The head guard twitched the corners of his eyes, glared at his subordinates secretly, and took out his money bag resignedly.

Li Baolu found two pieces of silver from the purse, threw the purse back to him, and hummed, "If your hands and feet are really itchy, go out of town to fight, don't you know it's a shame to waste? It's just that the store has a good temper, so I only charge you. Eight taels of silver, if it were me, I would punish you for trousers."

   Gu Jingyun on the other table couldn't help but coughed lightly. He felt that the older his wife was, the more domineering it became. Recently, her temper has become more and more powerful, and her mouth has become more and more powerful. She really dares to say anything.

  Li Baolu received the money and went to the innkeeper and returned the money.

The group did not stop at Henan Mansion, but went directly to the north. Along the way, they received money or bank notes from various sects. Li Baolu no longer concealed the captain of the bodyguard, in front of him. It was dealt with, and the silver note was carried on the body, and the silver was donated when it encountered the severely affected villages and towns.

  Li Baolu always seems to know who are good people and who can be trusted. They often leave after giving money, and don't stay too much. It seems that they are sure that the other party will not dare to play tricks.

The head guard asked someone to investigate secretly, and the people or businessmen entrusted by her were indeed innocent and had a certain reputation in the local area, and the subsequent investigation also showed that those people did their best to use the money to help the victims, No misappropriation and shoddy things happened.

   The head of the guard's eyes became darker. Li Baolu obviously didn't choose someone randomly, so who gave her the information?

   The head guard aimed at Yuan Shanting in Wenyuan Pavilion. It is said that Wenyuan Pavilion is for buying and selling news, so he can't provide it for free, right?

   The chief guard told himself in his heart that he was not, he knew that it must be the secret force in Lingtianmen.

It was getting closer and closer to the capital, and Li Baolu spent 240,000 taels with nothing left, all of which was spent on the victims of the disaster. It would take some time for the account book to return, but she did these things in front of the guards. It can be regarded as an explanation to the emperor.

   The captain of the guard was speechless for a long time, "You can't trust the imperial court so much, so you have to spend all your money before returning to the capital?"

  Li Baolu gave him a strange look, "Where did you come to this conclusion?"

   "Isn't it, otherwise why would you spend your money in such a hurry?"

"Of course not," Li Baolu said with a frown, "If it was the time of the late emperor, I would of course have such concerns, but the new emperor has already been registered, and the officials do not dare to say Qingming, but it is much better than that of the late emperor. There is also a lot more confidence. There will be concerns, but it's not the main thing."

  Li Baolu said: "I don't think this amount of money is enough. Along the way, is my money spent instead of spending it?"

  The chief guard was silent, there really wasn't any. Li Baolu, the survivors who were still alive, didn't even look at them. She helped those who could no longer survive, or who were on the verge of being destroyed at home.

   Just need someone to pull a hand to get through hardships.

"So all this money should be spent, but it was transported back to the capital, into the treasury, and then transported out by the Ministry of Household for disaster relief. How long would it take? The manpower, time cost, and various wastage costs were all in the process. Gao is very high, during this period of time we traveled this road I don’t know how many lives we could have saved died. This consequence can be avoided, so why don’t I avoid it?”

   The captain of the guard was silent for a while before agreeing with her words, "But you can't take a penny back. Your Majesty will leave it alone, the courtiers will definitely have opinions."

  Li Baolu snorted coldly: "Are they qualified to have an opinion? Those books are all my master's. The emperor promised to print them for my master. The money from the sale belongs to my master."

   is also true, but your master used the Royal Bookstore, and the original book was stolen from Zhang’s house.

  Although Zhang Boying's lineage is gone, the Zhang family is still there.
