339 Something Happened

When Ning Yue said this, her eyes flashed with excitement.

Jiang Ying frowned in disapproval. These people only knew how to do farm work. What else did they know?

“Is there a job suitable for them in the Fenghua Pavilion?” Jiang Ying asked.

Aren’t the people who can enter the Fenghua Pavilion to work all beautiful ladies?

Ning Yue did not explain. She only said, “There are many types of jobs. Not only girls can do them. You’ll know when the time comes.”

In this era, there were fewer rich people and more poor people. Even rich families might not be able to recruit everyone.

She could take advantage of this opportunity to hire people. The salary was higher than that of ordinary rich people. She believed that it would be easy to find workers she was satisfied with.

However, she remembered that in a place like the Fenghua Pavilion, when men came in to work, they would be called male prostitutes.

What she did was not to make a man a gigolo.

She had a bold idea. In some large-scale textile factories in the modern era, there were usually only female workers. There were very few male workers, so few that there were almost none.

As textiles were basically handmade, men rarely did handicrafts.

She was thinking that if she set a precedent and recruited men to do simple things, then many jobs would be fine for both men and women. That would solve the problem of equality between men and women to a certain extent.

Ning Yue’s actions were equivalent to resolving their survival problem.

If it was implemented on a large scale in the country, there would no longer be a gap between the rich and the poor in this world.

“Yueyue, you’re really my lucky star!” Jiang Ying hugged Ning Yue happily and spun around.

“By the way, I have another idea. There are many people who do good deeds, but not many who insist on doing good deeds. We can be good role models for those who do good deeds. Not only can we gain a good reputation, but we can also help those who really have difficulties solve their problems. How about that?”

Almost all the rich people in the family used a hundred taels of silver to do good deeds at a time, but they never thought of spending a tael of silver a day to do good deeds.

In other words, it was not that there were few good people in this world, but that there were too few people who insisted on doing good for a consistent period of time.

Jiang Ying was very curious about Ning Yue’s method to make those people persist in doing good.

“The method is very simple. If they donate, we’ll set up an organization specializing in managing their donations. We’ll write down clearly where the money that’s donated goes and what it’s used for. We have to be transparent. Otherwise, we won’t know if the donations are embezzled.”

It was impossible for them to have the energy to manage the donations every day. What if the management was corrupted and they were not careful?

Jiang Ying stood where he was and turned to look at the living conditions of the people on West Street.

He frowned slightly. What Ning Yue had suggested was very novel.

He had never even heard of it, let alone seen it. If he really implemented it, he might encounter many problems.

It wasn’t that he was timid or afraid of trouble. He just felt that he had to be sufficiently prepared for such a long-term matter.

Otherwise, if he could not implement it halfway, not only would it fail, but it would also be his greatest loss.

“Then what should we do for the first step?” Jiang Ying turned to look at Ning Yue.

“Let’s go back first and discuss the first step.” She glanced at the sky. It was almost noon. Let’s go back and settle our food and shelter first.

They went to the Fortune Pavilion for lunch. She had been too tired recently. She had a lot of great blueprints to implement. She had to plan well and work late every day.

While eating, Ning Yue’s heart was not at ease. Her mind was filled with the lives of the people on West Street and East Street.

She wanted to help them, but she didn’t feel strong enough.

She wondered what it would take to help everyone read and write, just like modern children.

“Master.” At this moment, Ah Da suddenly appeared. His face was very pale.

When Jiang Ying saw Ah Da’s situation, he suddenly had a premonition that something bad had happened.

He sent Ah Da to do something else. Unless something new happened, Ah Da rarely looked like this.

As expected, Ah Da handed the note to Jiang Ying. As soon as he placed it in Jiang Ying’s hand, he fell to the ground.

“Yun Duo and Baili, come in and help!” Ning Yue called out.
