Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1611 Not enough money
The welfare home is equivalent to opening a door to the world's underprivileged people to survive.

This gate is targeted, but some people inevitably want to fish in troubled waters to make their winter easier.

Therefore, here in the orphanage, various stories are being staged every day.

Some young people lied about their age, some pretended to be disabled, and some knew their children without saying a word, and all they wanted were the clothes and food given by the orphanage.

The people in charge of the orphanage have to conduct competitions for these registered people every day.

However, Xiao Xiao was like this, and the people who entered the orphanage were still one after another. Soon, the first orphanage could no longer support these people.

Of course, if there was no snow disaster this year, the mansion Qin Tian chose would still be enough for some poor people to spend the winter. This year is special, and there will be more people affected by the snow disaster.

There are not enough mansions, so we can only open up another one. Fortunately, although Chang'an City is not easy to live in, there are still many mansions under the name of the imperial court.

However, with the increase in the number of victims in the mansion, clothing and food gradually became a big problem.

On this day, just after Qin Tian went to court, someone rushed over despite the heavy snow.

"Master Qin, there is a shortage of food and clothes in the orphanage. The heavy snow is still falling. I don't know when it will end. What should I do?"

Hearing that there was not enough clothes and food, Qin Tian's eyes froze.

During this period of time, he has thought of many ways to get those wealthy businessmen and dignitaries to come to collect donations, and he was the first to bear the brunt and donated a lot.

However, although there are many good people in Chang'an City, facing this year's situation, they are also worried about the poor condition of their families, so even if they donate some clothes and food, it is definitely not much.

On the side of the court, some food and grass were allocated, but it was not a lot.

In this way, it is not surprising that there is a food shortage.

Qin Tian frowned and said, "Continue to raise donations."

"My lord, those people are afraid of us now. They closed the door before we passed. It's not easy to ask for donations?"

Not everyone wants to give away their things for nothing, and in this world, there are many people who don't like that reputation, and the wall of merit is nothing to them, so they want the food in their hands more, but Not a false name.

Qin Tian didn't expect the situation to turn out like this, and he was a little at a loss for a while, but he was Qin Tian after all, so he calmed down soon, and said: "Okay, after I return to the house, I will send some emergency food Yes, I will also arrange for the imperial court."

If you can't get food from other places, you can only get it from your own home.

The man smiled wryly, and could only accept his orders hastily.

Qin Tian hurriedly went to the household department, asking the household department to allocate some more grain and grass.

Things in the orphanage seem to be very good, but it is not easy to satisfy the appetites of those who are not engaged in childbirth in the orphanage.

With so many idlers raised by the imperial court, sometimes the pressure is really great.
-
The wind and snow were a little lighter in the evening of this day, and it seemed that it was about to stop.

However, even so, the snow in Chang'an City is still beyond imagination.

This snow disaster will be remembered by many people for a lifetime.

Gao Shilian soaked his feet at the mansion. After winter, he developed the habit of soaking his feet. If he didn't soak his feet for a day, he couldn't sleep well.

The house was as warm as spring, with a pot of wine warming on the stove, and a servant was talking about the orphanage that Qin Tian was in charge of.

"My lord, the orphanage is very good. It has saved many people. However, many refugees and ordinary people have entered the orphanage, and they spend a lot of food every day. Today's orphanage is a bit unsustainable. If There is no steady stream of food coming into the orphanage. It is not easy to feed these people through the winter. Now Qin Tian is worried, and there is no food for donations everywhere. Think about it, who would foolishly donate their own food Help..."

The servant muttered something, after Gao Shilian listened, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "There are still not enough people."

"A lot, there are quite a lot..." The servant thought that Gao Shilian felt that there were not many people, so he just retorted, but when he saw Gao Shilian's expression, he immediately shut up and said, "Not many, really not much." many."

Gao Shilian snorted: "Since there are not many, then we should find a way to get more people. Now the orphanage only accepts the victims of the disaster in Chang'an City, but the counties and counties near Chang'an City are also disaster-affected areas. , the people there are probably more affected by the disaster, you send people to spread the news about the orphanage, and attract the victims of the disaster in those places to come to Chang'an City, then, Qin Tian wants to leave them alone, so he can't do it. "

He knew too well the heroic sense of mission of people like Qin Tian. Such a sense of mission made them not hesitate to help other suffering people.

And as long as Qin Tian chooses to help the victims outside Chang'an City, it will be like a flood opening, and it will not be easy to stop it.

At that time, there will be so many disaster victims in Chang'an City, he would like to see how Qin Tian can solve the problem of feeding these people.

He knew that when Qin Tian was an official in other places, he liked to take advantage of those landlords and nobles, forcing them to contribute food and so on.

However, this is Chang'an City, if Qin Tian dared to do this, then he would not want to live.

Moreover, the wealthy businessmen and dignitaries in Chang'an City are not something he can force easily.

Sometimes, Qin Tian takes himself too seriously, which is not good.

After Gao Shilian ordered, the servant retreated after taking the order, and then did as Gao Shilian ordered.

The disasters in the states and counties of Chang'an City vary from severe to mild, and the serious ones are even more serious than Chang'an City. In the light ones, many people were affected by the disaster and even died.

As for the orphanage, Qin Tian only started in Chang'an City first, and then slowly promoted it around Chang'an City, so there are no orphanages in other places. However, although there are no orphanages, the imperial court has already ordered to let a place Officials rescue those common people, and if they find something unusual, they must be severely punished.

However, even if the local officials were helpful, their help was much lower than that of the orphanage in Chang'an City.

Even places like Chang'an City are somewhat stretched because of the large number of people affected by the disaster, let alone other places.

Therefore, when the news of the Chang'an City Welfare Institute came, some disaster victims from various states and counties flocked into Chang'an City.

They hope that in Chang'an City, they can have a place to live, wear warm clothes, and have enough food.

And according to the news they heard, they came to Chang'an City and entered the orphanage, these are not a problem.
