Chapter 122 Extra Story

Chapter 122 Extra: Salesian Home

Leng Moran and Xiao Xixi went to many places in modern times.

I have seen a lot of scenery.

Before leaving modern times, Leng Moran made a large donation to the orphanage and thanked the director for raising Xiao Xixi.

When they returned to the ancient small world, they did not go back to the palace directly, but directly visited the people to investigate the situation of abandoned children.

Xiao Xixi's fists hardened when she heard that many people would throw their children into the water and drown them if they didn't want to raise them or couldn't raise them.

Xiao Xixi didn't understand why there were such cruel parents in this world.

It’s enough to live without nourishment, but to drown people alive.

Let alone her biological son, Xiao Xixi couldn't bear to hear such things. She really didn't understand what kind of person could be so cruel.

But there was nothing she could do no matter how angry she was. Due to the limitations of the times, people here could only give birth to children after they had them. Moreover, due to lack of knowledge, it was difficult to stop them from having children in the first place.

Even if she takes out the anti-pregnancy pills that men take, people may not take them honestly, and if a woman takes anti-pregnancy pills, it will be more or less harmful to the body.

What Xiao Xixi can do is save one child.

She gave up her hatred, and together with Leng Moran, she investigated the number of drowned children in various places, and roughly estimated how many Salesian homes should be established in each place.

After completing the market research, the two encountered new problems.

Before Leng Moran abdicated, he left half of the money in his private treasury to his son Leng Huier. After all, he had cheated him on the throne, and he had to make up for it.

The other half was left to his daughter Leng Zhan'er, who planned to use it as a dowry. If she didn't get married, it would be left to her.

So he doesn't have much money now.

Xiao Xixi lost her income after handing over the teahouse. Now more than ten years later, although she still has a lot of money on hand, compared with the big project like building a Salesian hospital, her small amount of money is

It doesn't count at all.

The couple was worried about money for the first time in their lives.

In the end, the two of them agreed to recruit a group of people to join their gang... ah, no, to persuade a group of close friends to do good deeds.

After all, it is a great thing that benefits the country and the people. The national treasury must contribute part of it, and Leng Huier's private treasury must also contribute part.

Then Leng Moran persuaded several ministers of the DPRK and China to donate some money.

Unexpectedly, those old foxes were really stingy. Five or six of them together didn't donate much money.

Leng Moran couldn't blame them too much. After all, they probably didn't have much money.

Ahem, after all, he was once their leader, right?

Xiao Xixi discussed with Gu Xian, Zhang Lan, He Xiu and others and asked them to donate some.

These three people were very generous. Without Xiao Xixi having to waste any words, they each donated 20,000 taels of silver and said that if it was not enough, they could ask for it at any time.

Xiao Xixi was so moved that she almost cried. This is a true friend!

But when I thought about it, she gave them so many teahouses, and I felt that no matter what she did, she would be losing money.

The touching thoughts disappeared in an instant.

Xiao Xixi found Mrs. Gu again, and whenever she acted coquettishly, Mrs. Gu generously donated money.

Finally, the couple each put in some money, enough to open the first batch of Salesian homes.

The first batch of Salesian homes were located in relatively prosperous cities in various places.

After the Salesian Home was opened, people were asked to publicize it everywhere. If the child was born and did not want to be raised, he should not rush to drown him. He could be sent to a Salesian Home established by the government.

Sure enough, in places with sales homes, the probability of drowning babies is greatly reduced.

Xiao Xixi also spent money to hire teachers in Salesian homes in various places to teach the children how to read when they are older. In the future, when the children grow up, they can also work and repay the Salesian homes.

This will also allow a virtuous cycle of good deeds to continue.

The first batch saw results, and Xiao Xixi quickly raised money to open the second and third batches.

Adhering to the principle of not being able to fight with the same group of people, she adopted a public fundraising method this time, saying that if there are any aristocratic families or shops that want a good reputation, they can promote their own homes by sponsoring them to open a Salesian hospital.

There is no limit to the amount of sponsorship. As long as you are willing, even if you donate ten cents, your name will be engraved on the stone tablet in front of the Salesian Home.

Of course, the more donations you make, the bigger the words on the stone tablet will be.

As a result, the Salesian Home received sponsorship from many aristocratic families and merchant families, and successfully opened the second and third batches. Even the scale of these two batches was larger than the first batch, and more children were adopted.

Subsequently, as the influence of Salesian homes increased, wealthy businessmen from various places got involved and founded more Salesian homes.

The functions of the Salesian Home have also gradually expanded. Because there are teachers there, some people will send their children to learn a few words, not for scientific examinations, just to make life more convenient.

The school of the Salesian Academy charges a nominal fee of a few copper coins, which is affordable, but it is already a great support for the Salesian Academy.

Ten years later, there would be a Salesian hospital almost every twenty miles in Dachu, with a wide distribution that had never been seen in previous dynasties.

As the first batch of children who came out of the Salesian Academy gradually grew up, in addition to taking the scientific examinations and becoming officials, restaurants and shops in various places would give priority to the children from the Salesian Academy when selecting people.

They have read books, are literate and sensible, so it is easier to choose them.

There are also some children who stay in the Salesian Home or go to work in the newly opened Salesian Home. The wages they earn are returned to the Salesian Home at a certain percentage every year to ensure that the Salesian Home can develop healthily.

In order to prevent their parents from suppressing their children in the name of filial piety when they grow up, Da Chu introduced a policy that all money entering the Salesian Institution must be signed in a contract. After the children are sent to the Salesian Institution, they will no longer

They need to be provided for in their old age.

For those parents who have crooked ideas, their ideas are shattered before they can be formed.

For most parents who abandon their children, they just send the children they intend to drown to a Salesian hospital to find a way to survive. Of course, they will not ask the children to support them in old age.

Therefore, such a policy does not affect the stable operation of Salesian Hospital.

Several neighboring countries heard that Dachu had opened a Salesian Academy and even sent several ministers to the court, so they immediately copied it.

Xiao Xixi didn't mind, it was considered a good deed, and of course she hoped more such organizations could be established.

Regardless of whether it is Dachu or other surrounding countries, they are all human races.

After awakening her memory of the divine race, it did indeed make her more selfless and willing to contribute to a great extent.

After all, when she was a god, she chose to end her life and fall into reincarnation for the survival of the human race.

Xiao Xixi and Leng Moran spent more than ten years visiting various places to publicize the existence of the Salesian Home. It was not until there was almost no more infant drowning in Dachu that they retired.
