It is a charity home, open to the poor for free, regularly distributing porridge and food, and housing the disabled in the home...

"Well, although these houses were bought by the slave family and fellow villagers at a high price from those stinking little landlords, the high price is high. As long as it can help the people, it doesn't matter..."

She shook her head helplessly, glanced at everyone's reactions calmly, and changed the subject:

"Speaking of this, Lord Changshi, Nujia and his companions have long heard that the small landlords in Xingzifang like to join forces to oppress the people and often drive away tenants rudely. Moreover, the houses they rent are in disrepair and the accommodation conditions are extremely poor.

.

"These problems have not existed for a day or two. Many people have complained, and the incident between the Huang family and his daughter is just a microcosm of it.

"This time, after everyone heard about Lord Chang Shi's rescue of the Huang family and his daughter, many people became even more disgusted with these smelly little landlords.

"Actually, Mr. Changshi doesn't know something... The slave family and fellow villagers have long been dissatisfied with this matter. Since the beginning of the year, they have been raising funds and working hard to acquire the old house. They are currently preparing to renovate it and re-lease it to the bullied people.

, unlike those smelly little landlords, we will be fair and transparent, and will never break the contract and evict people.

"What do you think, Lord Changshi? Can you give me some guidance?"

Pei Shisanniang sincerely asked for advice.

Ouyang Rong remained silent.

Everyone in the audience cheered when they heard this for the first time.

Many people showed a look of surprise on their faces, saying that this luncheon was originally for this matter. It seemed that Pei Shisanniang had a close relationship with Mr. Chang Shi and was promoting something, so she gave her face more and more applause and approval.

.

Xie Lingjiang frowned and looked at Pei Shisanniang and glared at her.

On the surface, this eloquent woman was trying to make her senior brother famous and add glory to his political achievements, but in reality, she was paving the way for her own house acquisitions.

If most people heard about what happened today, they would have thought that the senior brother was making a public stand, and that Pei Shisanniang and this group of businessmen were relying on the senior brother...

The officials in the government agencies under the jurisdiction of Jiangzhou Hall, as long as they are smart and clever, will take the initiative to make way for these businessmen.

Xie Lingjiang lightly pursed her red lips.

Although from the current point of view, senior brother, Pei Shisanniang, and the Huang family's father and daughter all have their own gains, today is considered a three-win situation, but may I ask, who is the loser among the three wins?

First of all, it can be determined that the group whose interests have been harmed is not in the Xunyang Building...

Another point is that if something goes wrong with this group of businessmen in the future when they are collecting the houses, the reputation of the senior brother will also be damaged.

However, there is actually a little trick here, which allows the senior brother to avoid risks. For example... as long as no major conflicts occur during his tenure, this is considered a political achievement of his. Let's get promoted and leave first. As for future problems

, that will be the responsibility of the next few Jiang governors and governors.

Ouyang Rong nodded and said:

"Of course I am pleased with your kind donation, but some of your words may be a bit harsh. There are many people here, and everyone is just having a meal. I don't want to disturb everyone's mood, but I must say that I am of a straightforward nature, and I hope to forgive you.

.So, Mrs. Pei is sure that she won’t go upstairs to eat now? Then the official will tell her on the spot..."

When Pei Shisanniang heard this, she immediately interrupted with a toast:

"The Huang family's father and daughter have been waiting for a long time. We would like to offer Mr. Chang Shi a glass of wine. If we have anything to say, we will discuss it in detail later. I hope Mr. Chang Shi won't be surprised."

She winked, and the maid in green immediately went upstairs to call someone.

"Okay, if you don't want to go up, then just tell me."

Ouyang Rong nodded and sat down, picked up some food and put it into his mouth.

Pei Shisanniang secretly thought something was wrong: "Lord Chang Shi..."

At this moment, the maid in green ran back in a panic, came to Pei Shisanniang, and whispered in a panic, a little loudly:

"Madam, it's bad, the person is missing. When the slave went in, there was no one in the box. As for a pile of new skirts on the table, and... there is also a house deed, and the window facing the river is open."

"What..." Pei Shisanniang exclaimed, and immediately stopped talking. She didn't dare to look at Ouyang Rong and others who were looking sideways. She panicked in her eyes and scolded the maid in a low voice: "Why are you looking at people? Hurry up and find them!"

"

Ouyang Rong and Xie Lingjiang looked at each other with surprised expressions on their faces.

Xie Lingjiang noticed that his senior brother suddenly laughed, stood up, and took the opportunity to speak loudly in front of everyone:

"I actually want to say that Mrs. Pei and you may have recognized the wrong person. I don't know the Huang family father and daughter at all and have never helped. They may be other kind-hearted people. Today I thank the wrong person."

He turned his head and looked at Xie Lingjiang and asked casually: "Wait a minute, is it the Seventeenth Mother's gang to take my name?"

Xie Lingjiang had a tacit understanding and said coldly in front of everyone: "I don't know, I forgot."

Ouyang Rong nodded and comforted the embarrassed Pei Shisanniang:

"But it's okay. It's a good deed. I support it in principle... I suddenly remembered that there are important things at the government office and I can't delay it. I might as well skip the meal. I'll leave after saying a few words."

Everyone opened their eyes wide, looked at each other, and faintly smelled the smell of gunpowder. Immediately, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Pei Shisanniang. Some of them were gloating about her misfortune, and some even drank tea and watched the show.

Ouyang Rong smiled sheepishly, looking eager to learn:

"Mrs. Pei, I have always been puzzled by something. You said that you want to get rid of those smelly little landlords. Yes, these small landlords are really stingy sometimes, but you said that after taking up the old houses in Xingzifang and renovating them,

Rent it out or sell it again to benefit the general public...

"Then, may I ask, which group of people are these ordinary people who can afford new houses in your words? How come you know and understand the ordinary people a little differently from me?"
