Chapter 323 The Legendary Emperor Ji and the Disaster Relief Artifact
ps: Two chapters in one. Not available at night. Please give me a monthly ticket...please recommend.
Snowflakes are flying all over the sky, and the earth is white everywhere, as if covered with a thick quilt. The mountains in the distance overlap one another, covered with a layer of white snow, like the white waves rolled up by the sea. This heavy snow is like
Panlou's closure came so suddenly.
"Haha. It's really snowing."
Li Qi stood in front of the window, looking at the scene where the sky and the earth seemed to blend into one, and couldn't help but smile. He remembered that Mrs. Qin had said it was going to snow two days ago. He originally thought that this sentence was a reference to the Pan Tower closing incident.
Unexpectedly, she was really fooled. After leaving the house, Li Qi came to the front hall, preparing to go to Zuixianju with Mrs. Qin. It would be such a beautiful thing to be accompanied by a beautiful woman while walking on the road in the snow.
Unfortunately, when he came to the front hall, Mrs. Qin was not there, so Li Qi found Aunt Chen. After asking, he learned that Mrs. Qin had gone to the northern suburbs early in the morning to help Bai Qiannuo deliver food to the refugees.
Food and warmth were brought, and Ji Hongnu, Zhang Runer, and Brother and Sister Maqiao also went. Because he had been busy preparing for the Four Kingdoms Banquet recently, Mrs. Qin did not call him.
This should be the largest disaster relief effort since the establishment of the charity foundation.
Li Qi squinted his eyes, still feeling uneasy. After learning the location of the disaster relief from Aunt Chen, he was ready to go to the northern suburbs to have a look. As soon as he left the gate and came to the street, Li Qi discovered the prosperity of Bianjing.
It did not stop due to the arrival of heavy snow. The road was still full of hurried pedestrians, those on their way, those doing business with burdens, literati admiring the snow scenery, and many children having snowball fights on the roadside.
This was the snow that Li Qi encountered when he came to Bianjing. He couldn't help but feel something in his heart and sighed: "It's been almost a year." Thinking of everything that happened in this year, he still feels like a dream.
"boom!"
Just when Li Qi was lost in thought, a snowball suddenly came towards him and hit him in the cheek.
"Ouch! Damn! Who the hell threw it?"
Li Qi screamed in pain, quickly wiped his face, looked around, and suddenly saw a little girl not far to the left with her hands on her hips. She looked at him with a smile, but she saw that the little girl was about ten years old.
, petite and exquisite, wearing a pink cotton-padded jacket with white trim, the two pigtails on her head swayed with her little head. Her pink and tender face was flushed with cold, and she was really shocked.
cute.
Ri. He was so arrogant at a young age. How can he be so arrogant when he grows up? Li Qi was stunned for a moment and immediately pretended to be a bad uncle. He threatened: "Baga, what are you doing? That snowball just now
Did you throw it away?"
Not only was the little girl not afraid, but she giggled, pointed her little finger at him, and said in her childish voice: "Hee hee, you talk really interestingly."
Interesting? Li Qi saw that instead of scaring her, she was making fun of her. His face darkened and he said in a human tone: "Little sister, was it you who threw the snowball just now?"
"So what?" The little girl tilted her head, seeming to be thinking about this question as well.
Li Qi was stunned for a moment and said, "Then why did you throw the snowball at me?"
"Let's have a snowball fight."
"you and me?"
The little girl nodded vigorously.
"There are so many children here, why don't you go play with them?" Li Qi asked curiously.
The little girl said rationally: "I throw snowballs at them. They will bully me. You are an adult, and adults cannot bully children."
Hey. This girl is quite smart, and she also knows how to pick on the weak. Li Qi couldn't help being happy and said: "You mean, you know that I won't fight back, so you want to have a snowball fight with me?"
"Hmm. Now if you stand still and don't move, I will throw another one." The little girl squatted down and kneaded the snowball on the ground with her little hands.
Sweating profusely! Stand still and don’t move? I dare you to treat me like a target.
Li Qi was completely shocked by this little girl's IQ.
"Huan Huan, don't be rude."
At this time, a shout came from the side.
As soon as the little girl heard this voice, she quickly stood up, clapped her little hands, and called out obediently: "Third brother."
Third brother? This title is a bit scary.
Li Qi quickly turned his head to look, was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "Your Majesty—Mr. Zhao?"
The person who came was none other than Zhao Kai.
Zhao Kai smiled slightly and said: "Li Qi, I didn't expect to meet you here. My little sister is rude, please be more patient." As he spoke, he walked to the little girl again, held her little hand and warned:
"Huan Huan, if you keep running around like this, Third Brother won't take you out next time. ---Here, you want the lotus cake."
The little girl completely ignored Zhao Kai's previous warning, happily took the cake wrapped in yellow paper, and said sweetly: "Thank you, Third Brother."
"Mr. Zhao, this is your sister, she is so cute." Li Qi walked up and said with a smile. But he thought in his heart, she turned out to be a princess, no wonder she is so arrogant.
Zhao Kai smiled and said to the little girl: "Huan Huan, call Brother Li quickly."
The little girl opened her eyes wide and glanced at Li Qi curiously. After thinking for a while, she asked: "Are you the cook who knows how to make birthday cakes?"
Zhao Kai said in a deep voice: "Huan Huan."
He seemed to think that the word "cook" was a derogatory term, but Li Qi didn't care, and said with a smile: "Little sister, tell the elder brother what your name is, and when it's your birthday, the elder brother will give you a birthday cake, okay?"
"
The little girl nodded first, then raised her head and asked Zhao Kai: "Third brother, can I tell him?"
Zhao Kai nodded. The little girl said seriously: "My name is Zhao Duofu, and my nickname is Huanhuan, but you should respectfully call me Emperor Roufu."
Princess Roufu?
Li Qi's heart trembled, he blinked and took a serious look at the innocent little girl in front of him. Oh my god, this---could this be the legendary woman, Emperor Roufu? Oh shit, am I not dreaming?
Can you meet such celebrities while walking on the street?
"Li Qi, Li Qi."
Seeing that Li Qi was stunned, Zhao Kai shouted twice.
"ah?"
Li Qi was slightly startled, scratched the back of his head and said, "Okay, okay, Emperor Roufu is good."
Zhao Duofu tilted his head and said in an old-fashioned manner: "This is not the palace, you don't need to salute me."
Li Qi looked embarrassed and said sarcastically: "It should, it should." He still can't believe that the person standing in front of him is Emperor Roufu.
Zhao Kai smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "Okay. Li Qi, I have to take her back. I'll have a few drinks with you next time. Oh, by the way, I almost forgot that you don't drink."
"Just going back?"
Li Qi was stunned for a moment and said: "Mr. Zhao, it's still so early. Why don't you go to a small shop and sit down. I'll make a bridge rice noodle for you to try."
Zhao Duofu's bright big eyes flickered a few times, and he asked curiously: "Brother, what is Cross-Bridge Rice Noodles?"
Hey. It seems that he is also a foodie. When he heard that there was something to eat, his name changed. Li Qi was about to explain, but Zhao Kai stopped him with his eyes and said with a smile: "Let's see it another time. I secretly brought Huan Huan out this time."
, if dad finds out, then I will have to be scolded again."
When Zhao Duofu heard this, his mouth tightened and he looked angry.
Li Qi laughed twice and said, "Okay, let's talk another day." Then he smiled at Zhao Duofu and said, "Roufu, when is your birthday, I can help you prepare a birthday cake.
"
"I---I'd better wait until then to tell you. If I tell you now, you won't remember it. My third brother often forgets my birthday." Zhao Duofu knows Li Qi quite well. He usually knows a woman's birthday.
Can't remember.
Li Qi just said it casually, and probably forgot about it when he turned his back. But seeing that a little girl saw through it, his face turned red and he said, "Okay, just send someone to notify me when the time comes."
Zhao Kai laughed and said, "Okay, let's go first."
"Okay. You two, walk slowly."
Li Qi watched them disappear around the corner of the street, then looked back, smiled and shook his head, his eyes suddenly became deep, and murmured to himself: "Emperor Roufu, you will only be an ordinary person in this life.
Princess, I will never give you the chance to act like a legend."
After bidding farewell to Zhao Kai, Li Qi rushed to the disaster relief site in the northern suburbs. He saw that more than twenty white tents had been set up around them. The tents were surrounded by a sea of people and twenty large stoves. Next to each stove was a large
Pot, the scene is so spectacular.
In addition to the servants of Baifu and Qinfu, Li Qi also found that there were many enthusiastic people, including scholars, doctors, butchers, etc., who all worked together and were enthusiastic.
It seems that my worries are somewhat unnecessary.
Li Qi felt very pleased when he saw Bai Qiannuo's orderly arrangements. He searched the crowd, hoping to find Bai Qiannuo's money. Bai Qiannuo hadn't found it yet, but Li Qi saw a familiar figure.
That was Chen Dong, a student of Taipei University. He said secretly, it seems that these pedantic scholars are not useless.
After a while, he finally found Bai Qiannuo, but when he saw Bai Qiannuo giving orders to Lu Meimei anxiously, it seemed that he had encountered something difficult.
Li Qi frowned, walked over, and shouted: "Qiniang."
"Brother, why are you here? Aren't you preparing for the Four Nations Banquet?" Bai Qiannuo said in surprise.
"Not too long ago. Did something happen?" Li Qi asked.
Bai Qiannuo sighed dejectedly and briefly explained the situation to Li Qi. It turned out that when she saw it was snowing last night, she thought of the refugees outside the city, so she started gathering people that night and prepared tents, food, etc.
Disaster relief materials. They have already arrived here before dawn today. Because most of these refugees came from the north, where the weather is relatively cold, so they are not too short of clothes and quilts. The key is that they have no cover.
A place to protect from wind and rain. However, because Bai Qiannuo prepared in a hurry, there were not enough tents at all. But this was not the worst. What was more serious was the lack of food. The food distributed during disaster relief these days was usually steamed buns.
and gruel, but the steamed buns are usually made and sold freshly. In such a short period of time, it is impossible to raise enough steamed buns. Moreover, the weather is so cold that when the steamed buns arrive, they all turn into ice cubes. These refugees
There is no shortage of children inside. How can they eat this cold food? Besides, hunger in such a cold weather will be the death of the god of death.
It turns out there are still so many problems.
Seeing that Bai Qiannuo was so anxious that he almost cried, Li Qi comforted him: "Qiniang, you must calm down, being anxious won't change anything, and as the helmsman, you can't show your anxiety. In fact, you can
It is not easy to raise so much relief materials in a few hours. Moreover, it is not your fault. In fact, steamed buns are not suitable for large-scale disaster relief. The key is that steamed buns cannot be stored for too long. Even if you prepare
It is difficult to raise enough steamed buns, and even more difficult to sustain. It is best to find a food that can be stored for a long time, so that we can prepare it first. When we need to use it, we can just take it.
Come out, and you won't be in a hurry every time."
"Food that can be preserved for a long time?" Bai Qiannuo frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly shouted: "Yes, brother. Don't we still have a lot of canned meat at home?"
"ah?"
Li Qi's face tightened. He complained in his heart, and I felt dizzy. I went around and around, and ended up getting myself in. The cost of my canned meat is so high, one can is enough to buy a pound of steamed buns. And it's not full.
, used for disaster relief? This is too uneconomical. Why: "Qiniang, you should know that my canned meat cannot be seen in Tokyo yet."
Bai Qiannuo asked anxiously: "What should we do?"
By the way. What kind of disaster relief was used in my era? Li Qi thought for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up. He said in surprise: "Instant noodles!"
"instant noodles?"
Bai Qiannuo was stunned for a moment and asked: "Brother, what are instant noodles?"
Li Qi said excitedly: "Qiniang, this instant noodles is a magical thing. Not only can it be stored for a long time, but it is also very convenient to use. You only need to soak it in hot water. The taste is also quite good. The most important thing is... it
The cost is not high, and it can definitely be called a disaster relief tool." The more he spoke, the more excited he became, as if he saw countless amounts of money rolling in. Traveling far away these days takes a long time. Most people only carry some dry food with them, which is dry.
, tasteless, and cannot be stored for a long time. If there were instant noodles, who would bring them? Not only that, instant noodles can also be used in the military together with canned meat. At critical times, a small pack of instant noodles may be able to
It's still unclear whether it will work miraculously.
When Bai Qiannuo heard Li Qi praising the instant noodles so perfectly, he hurriedly asked: "Brother, where can I buy this instant noodles? I'll ask someone to buy it right away."
"Ah? This--."
Li Qi was startled for a moment and said sarcastically: "Qiniang, actually I just thought of this instant noodles. I haven't done it yet. There is no such thing for sale in the world today."
"Did you just think of it?"
Bai Qiannuo's eyes were full of disappointment that could not be concealed, and he said: "Then--is it still too late for you to do it now?"
"It's definitely too late, but the making brother has already thought of it. It shouldn't take many days, and it should be used for the next disaster relief." Li Qixin said that making instant noodles is actually not too difficult, and it is much easier than canned meat.
The problem is that the seasoning is difficult to prepare, but after all, it is better than steamed buns.
"But - but what should we do now? We originally set up this charity foundation with the intention of helping these refugees, but this time, I failed so much. I -" At this point, Bai Qian
Nuo's voice began to choke.
"Qiniang, are the steamed buns here?" At this time, Mrs. Qin came over, glanced at Li Qi, and said with a smile: "You are here too."
Bai Qiannuo shook her head and said lonely: "It's not over yet, Madam Lu has already gone to urge you."
Seeing that Bai Qiannuo's eyes were red, Mrs. Qin frowned and said to Li Qi: "Li Qi, you always have a lot of ideas, you might as well help Qiniang think of a way."
"Isn't that what I'm thinking about?"
Li Qi frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly said: "Qiniang, you seem to be relying too much on charity foundations now. Have you forgotten how we rescued them before?"
Bai Qiannuo's eyes lit up and she said, "Are you talking about recruiting them to be bartenders at Zuixianju?"
Mrs. Qin said: "This is not a bad idea."
This lady is really, why is she always doing a disservice?
Li Qi raised his hand and said: "Wait a minute, you have misunderstood me. Zuixianju is now overcrowded. Our monthly salary is almost more than Fan Lou, so we can't take any more."
"What do you mean?" Bai Qiannuo asked doubtfully.
Li Qi smiled and said: "Qiniang, it's not that there's not enough food now, it's that there are too many people. If we can accommodate some people, then both housing and food will become abundant."
"But you, Zuixianju, don't accept people, so where should we place them?"
Li Qi smiled slyly and said: "That's a lot. Have you forgotten the Taishi's academy? Although it is still being renovated, there is still a place to live. You can recruit a group of children to live there first. In addition, they
The parents can also help with the cleaning, and can also take care of the students' food and daily life in the future. Don't rush to be happy, this is just one of them. Also, the Zhou family can also accommodate some people. Now we are cooperating with the Zhou family to produce
New clothes are also the time to hire people. The Zhou family will definitely expand on a large scale in the future, so you can recruit some aunts who are good at needlework to help there. In addition, you can also recruit some little girls to be apprentices there. Slowly.
Slow cultivation. This is the second and third. Hongfu, the new casino is now under construction, and now Hongwan Casino is full of middle-aged uncles, who can only serve as doormen at most. A large number of manpower will also be needed. I
We originally planned to wait until the college is completed before we start recruiting people, but now it seems that we have to do it earlier. At least we can help them get through this heavy snow first."
Bai Qiannuo and Mrs. Qin looked at each other, with excitement in each other's eyes. In this way, at least hundreds of people could be accommodated, which greatly reduced the pressure on the charity foundation. Bai Qiannuo's face immediately turned from worry to
She was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Brother, thank you so much." She sighed again and said, "But the people in Fan Lou and Jade Xuan are already full, otherwise we can recruit more."
Li Qi chuckled and said, "I don't know about Fan Lou. But there are definitely not enough people in Jade Pavilion."
"Why is Brother so sure?"
Mrs. Qin smiled and said: "You are not referring to the chain store opened by Cai Yuanwai in Jiangnan in cooperation with us."
"clever!"
Li Qi smiled and said: "Cai Yuanwai's appetite is not small. He obviously wants to spread chain stores all over the south of the Yangtze River. You can imagine the manpower needed by then. We should help him prepare as soon as possible. After all, he is our partner.
."
Bai Qiannuo was even more happy. She nodded and said, "I'll make arrangements right away."
Li Qi raised his hand and said: "Wait a minute, Qiniang, don't be in a hurry to recruit people. You should first ask Uncle Zhou Zhou and Mr. Hong about how many people they will recruit. And you have to discuss it with them.
Let them provide some housing. After all, the college is still under construction. The rooms that can be provided are limited. What I mean is to place the people they need in their homes first, and then make unified arrangements after the college is completed. Also
, you find some people to get some banners, and it should be marked on them that all this is given by Master Cai. Anyway, just write some words of praise. Don't be subtle, blow it hard, what kind of good people in the nine generations, reincarnations of Bodhisattvas, etc.
Okay, it's better to get some firecrackers and hit them all the way into the city. He paid for it, so we should give him what he wants. Moreover, this will also strengthen the reputation of the college and let everyone know that we are indeed doing practical things.
.”
"Well, I know what to do." Bai Qiannuo nodded happily.
Li Qi chuckled and said, "Leave it to me to take care of Taishi's Mansion, Hong Mansion and Jade Pavilion. You can just go to Zhou's house."
"Brother, you are so kind."
Li Qi chuckled and said, "Hello everyone, that's what's really good."
Mrs. Qin chuckled and said: "You have just recovered for a while, but you are no longer good."
Bai Qiannuo chuckled and said, "I think what the elder brother said is quite right. Hello everyone is the real good thing. Brother, Sister Wang, I'll go and get busy first."
"Go slowly, don't fall."
"I understand." Although Bai Qiannuo said this, he walked faster than anyone else.
........
Li Qi did not stay here for long. After all, he could not help much. After giving Ji Hongnu a few words, he went to Hong Bajin and others to discuss the matter of accepting refugees. Fortunately, the discussions were relatively relaxed. After all,
Hong Bajin and the others really needed manpower now, and they asked for help from Li Qi, so they all readily agreed. The most important thing is that each of them, the richest people, has several properties in their homes. In this way,
Don't worry about having no place to live.
But Li Qi knew that they did this not out of kindness, but out of profit, and it even included a debt of gratitude.
After running around for a day, Li Qi was almost exhausted when he returned to the Qin Mansion. He missed his BMW more than ever. He washed his face and climbed into bed.
I don’t know how long it took, but a rapid knock on the door woke him up again. Now he really had the urge to kill. He suppressed his anger and said, "Who is it?"
"Master Li, it's me." Aunt Chen's voice came from outside.
Li Qi slapped his forehead and said in annoyance: "Madam, it's the middle of the night. If you have anything to do, can we talk about it tomorrow? I'm already asleep."
"Master Li, someone from Fan Lou is here. He said he wants to see you for something urgent."
"Fan Lou?"
Li Qi was stunned for a moment and said, "Do you know what's going on?"
"I don't know, but that man is in the front yard now."
Damn it! This day is really unbearable. Li Qi said: "Wait a minute."
Li Qi hurriedly put on his wife's clothes and walked towards the front yard with Aunt Chen. As soon as he arrived at the front yard, he saw a man rushing towards him and said anxiously: "Master Li, my master is dying. Young Master ordered me to treat you."
