Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm-Chapter 1634 - 1633: He is Rich, He is Guilty
Chapter 1634: Chapter 1633: He is Rich, He is Guilty
Yang Wenxiao once told Qiao Xiaomai that for the elderly, if they are over seventy years old, they can receive some food from the government office every month, a few pounds of meat, and some cloth every year.
That is his wish, and it is also something an Emperor should achieve.
The barrier between the rich and the poor has always been thick. It is too difficult for the poor to break through this barrier and become rich. As the ruler of Daqi, he also cannot break this barrier, but he can strive to make the lives of the poor a bit better.
This was his desire since becoming Emperor. After working hard for half his life, it has still not been realized.
Over the past two years, Qiao Xiaomai and the Tong Family’s sudden rise have disrupted the peace in Daqi, especially Qiao Xiaomai, who has fiercely and aggressively smashed through the rich-poor barrier, climbing from abject poverty to her current status. Now she wants to do good deeds, and she even wants to leverage his reputation to do so.
He couldn’t refuse that.
Qiao Xiaomai is helping him fulfill this wish.
"Just say that I care about the common people and am offering Floral Dew for free to help impoverished folks improve their health. This way, even if those wealthy people are dissatisfied, they have no choice," Yang Wenxiao said.
This matter ought to be handled by him. If it were Qiao Xiaomai’s doing, those people who previously bought Floral Dew and those who are now fighting tooth and nail for it would resent her deeply. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Why should they have to spend thousands of taels of silver to buy it, while the poor can obtain it for free?
Is poverty justified?
Does being wealthy mean you deserve to suffer losses?
Qiao Xiaomai is doing this on purpose!
Qiao Xiaomai thought for a moment about the reactions of the wealthy once the notice is published, and she couldn’t help clicking her tongue, "You’re absolutely right."
Let Yang Wenxiao take the brunt of the resentment this time.
She couldn’t handle it.
She now travels with far more guards than Yang Wenxiao does.
If this wave of hatred still falls on her, she might as well stop going out entirely.
Thus, the decision was made. Yang Wenxiao personally announced in the Daqi Monthly that he had purchased some Floral Dew from Qiao Xiaomai, which would be distributed free of charge to those who couldn’t afford medicine for their health.
This way, the government office wouldn’t need to escort patients to the Capital City anymore.
As for Bei Lingsu, let her travel across Daqi to provide medical care in the future.
Gathering all the patients in the Capital City is indeed inappropriate.
When this issue of the Daqi Monthly came out, it was like pouring a barrel of oil on a blazing fire—it exploded instantly.
Those who couldn’t afford Floral Dew were merely watching the spectacle.
Those who could afford it but couldn’t obtain it were furious.
Why?!
They had money, went to great lengths, begged everyone they could, but still couldn’t buy it, yet these poor wretches did absolutely nothing and could obtain Floral Dew for free? Why?!
Does being wealthy mean you deserve such treatment?
This isn’t fair at all!
Outrage ran high, and many people rushed to Field Manor demanding to see Qiao Xiaomai. Wasn’t it stated that Floral Dew wouldn’t be sold anymore this year? Why did she sell it to Yang Wenxiao!
Now Yang Wenxiao is distributing Floral Dew to these impoverished folks who wouldn’t even glance at it.
It’s the comparisons that create disparity.
They were deeply resentful!
Frankly, Qiao Xiaomai could fully understand their anger. If she were in their position, she might be fuming too.
However, in her eyes, being wealthy truly was the original sin for these people.
They were wealthy and could afford Floral Dew, meaning that selling it to them was just regular business and wouldn’t be recorded in her cosmic ledger.
She had to distribute Floral Dew to the poor for free. Only then would it count as a good deed, and only then would the heavens credit her with merit.
With merit, she could obtain Divine Liquid!
In her presence, their wealth really was the original sin!
