In the past two years, Ximen Qing has been practicing at home all day, either going to Juxianju or Nuanfeng Pavilion, which can be said to be a three-point and one-line life. Although he has never left Qinghe County, Ximen Qing's reputation as the "Ximen benefactor" has spread more far-reachingly.

Today's society is in turmoil and the court is corrupt. Many heroes have been framed and become prisoners and have to go to the world. These heroes have no money when they are desperate. When they pass by Qinghe County, they are in a timely manner. Not only do they not charge money, they are in charge of food and drink, and they are also given money before leaving. In the past four years, there have been no less than hundreds of down-and-out heroes rescued by Juxian House. As for the others who have helped, there are countless heroes. Those heroes are people who value love and righteousness. They all remember the help of Ximen Qing and admire them very much. Therefore, Ximen Qing's reputation for kindness was also spread by them.

Come on, Juxianju's situation is not very good. In the past four years, Juxianju has not only not made any profit, but has suffered heavy losses. Every year, Ximen Chuxue allocated thousands of taels of money to Juxianju, otherwise Juxianju would have closed down long ago. In recent years, the fortune of the Song Dynasty has become increasingly poor, the economy is in a bad state, and many businesses are not easy to do. In the past, people had spare money to drink and go to brothels, but now they can only make money to support their families. In the past two years, the Ximen family's industry has gradually shrunk, and many restaurants and inns have closed, only pharmacies and pawn shops are still open. Fortunately, even if there are only pharmacies and pawn shops, it is enough to ensure that the Ximen family's wealth is not short of money, otherwise Juxianju and others will be able to be poor in Ximen Mansion.

Ximen Qing took Wu Ying to Juxianju, said hello to the person who was having dinner downstairs, and walked up the second floor to find Qian Baiyun.

"Uncle Qian, how is the business coming in?" Ximen Qing asked with a smile.

Qian Baiyun put away the account book, raised his eyebrows, shook his head, and sighed: "Business is far worse than before. Qinghe County is just a small county town, not as good as a big place like Dongping Prefecture. The people are almost unable to eat enough, so how can they spend money? Now the people who visit our Juxianju are the landlords in the county, besides those who are down and out, I want to beat these greedy landlords out!"

One of the reasons why the people live in difficult life is because of the abnormality of the court, and the other is the oppression of the landlords. Qinghe County is a small county, far away from the emperor of Tokyo, so the landlords and officials colluded with the officials to oppress the people, and there was no way. Since Sun Hou lay in bed with a cuckold and was angry, he spent money to buy an official and let his son become the county magistrate of Qinghe County. Sun Hou's son was even more greedy and bullied the people even more. The tax alone was doubled! Changing taxes privately was a serious crime of beheading, but Sun Hou's son was not afraid, and the court just didn't care, which caused him to be unscrupulous. But there was no way, even if you sued the official or even sued the imperial court, there was no way. How many good officials in the court are now? It's more than enough to give you a hand to count!

Hearing Qian Baiyun's words, Ximen Qing sighed helplessly.

This society has become like this, and no one can change it. Even Song Huizong woke up and wanted to change it, but he was powerless.

Ximen Qing said: "Uncle Qian, don't worry, those greedy and stupid officials and landlords will be punished! By the way, I will leave Qinghe County in three days. Let's take a look now and tell you. Since the business is in a downturn, then double the price of vegetables! Anyway, the people are not here for a long time, and they are all these landlords. If they have money, they still need to take enough food when they come to our Juxianju. Don't provide any good food. You can eat a lot of food. If they dislike it, please invite them out! I, Ximen Qing, are kind enough to help, and they still want to pick them up. This is outrageous!"

A truly down-and-out hero will be grateful to others for their gratitude. If someone helps you kindly, you still dislike this and that, how can such a person be considered a hero? Ximen Qing will never help such a person!

Qian Baiyun nodded and said, "Young Master, don't worry, I have recorded all the things you told me. But I have to say, opening Juxianju is not a long-term solution! Young Master, you have helped too many people in the past four years, but you have received very few benefits. Old man, I am a rough man, and I don't understand any big principles, but I also know that this is a business that is losing money. Now the business is not satisfactory, and our restaurants like Juxianju are really unable to compare with small restaurants. I hope the young master can consider whether Juxianju is closed?"

When the people are poor, they will naturally not visit high-end restaurants like Juxianju. Most of them visit very small farm restaurants and go to those small restaurants to drink and eat meat. If Juxianju continues to waste like this, in everyone's eyes, they will be foolish. In recent years, if Ximen Chuxue had not paid money to support him, Juxianju would have closed down long ago. Qian Baiyun felt sorry for wasting assets like this, so he gave a reminder.

Ximen Qing pursed his lips and didn't say anything. After thinking for a while, he said, "Close the door is a must, but now is not the time. When I come back next time, I will close Juxianju. What do you think? Uncle Qian?"

Qian Baiyun smiled and said, "Okay, Qing'er will be fifteen in a year and will be married soon. It will not be too late to close Juxianju. Haha, Qing'er is so old in the blink of an eye. I'm going to get married. I'm waiting for that day to come!"

Ximen Qing said: "Uncle Qian, when Juxianju is closed, you can move to my house and take good care of your old age. You can't refuse this!"

Qian Baiyun nodded in emotion and said, "Okay, my old man is waiting for that moment to arrive, haha..."

Then Ximen Qing chatted with Qian Baiyun again before leaving Juxianju.

Walking on the road, Ximen Qing felt helpless. When Juxianju opened its business four years ago, Juxianju's business was very good. Although it was necessary to waive some people's meals and support others for free, the people's consumption was enough to match the money consumed. At that time, the people had money on hand and were happy to come to Juxianju for consumption. But now? Only a few landlords came to Juxianju, and ordinary people had to go to a small restaurant to drink some wine and eat some meat. The changes in Qinghe County in the past four years were so obvious. It is conceivable how decadent the entire Song Dynasty would be.

While sighing helplessly, Ximen Qing came to Nuanfeng Pavilion unknowingly.

Compared with Juxianju, the business of Nuanfeng Pavilion has dropped a lot, but it is still prosperous than Juxianju. Although brothels are a place with high consumption, some people would rather not eat than play, and there are still many such people! In addition, the martial arts girls in Nuanfeng Pavilion are so tempting that Nuanfeng Pavilion has not reached the point of closing the door frequently. Other brothels are a bit sad, and they closed one after another a year ago. Four years ago, there were four or five brothels in Qinghe County, but now, there are only Nuanfeng Pavilion left! The poverty of the people can be seen from this.

Seeing Ximen Qing stopping, Wu Ying asked in a low voice: "Young Master, do you want to go in and see Miss Qinglian back?"
