Love Your Husband

Part 481 - 490

The two princes cannot support so many students for nothing.

In addition to these more than 2,000 students, he also has a Li Family Charity Hall, which also has thousands of people.

Previously, some people left to join Royal Logistics, and many people chose to work in snack workshops.

Because the Li Family Charity Hall only provides accommodation and food and does not give any extra money.

Some people could still do some simple work even if they had a broken leg or an arm, so he arranged for these people to work in the Li family's snack shop.

However, the food and drink of these people are still taken care of by the charity hall, and with the arrival of the wounded from Xishan Province, there are now more than 1,500 people in the charity hall.

The food and drink for so many people is a huge expense every day.

Moreover, unlike schools and charity halls, orphanages deal with children or even infants. If someone dies due to poor care, it will ruin the orphanage's reputation.

Therefore, if an orphanage is opened, sufficient staffing must be arranged to minimize accidents as much as possible.

This is another expense.

It’s not easy to raise people.

At this moment, he can really empathize with Sheng Hong. Sheng Hong supports Da Sheng's imperial guards, local garrisons and officials. That's awesome!

After listening to Li Qiao's analysis, Tao Zhu felt heavy-hearted, but Li Qiao was telling the truth, so he agreed with Li Qiao to lower the orphanage's food and accommodation standards.

But the specific extent of the reduction still needs to be discussed.

The couple discussed for several days, and in mid-November, when Jiang Mao and Li Xiaolan returned to Beijing, they finally finalized the standards.

When it comes to food, every meal is coarse grains, and fine grains are only given during festivals.

Moreover, all the children who entered the orphanage not only had to learn to read, but also had to work for the Li family, either working on the farm, or doing embroidery or housework, anyway, they could not eat for free.

Of course, these orphans can regret their decision, and if they cannot adapt to life in the orphanage, they are free to leave.

But once you leave, you can no longer enter the orphanage.

When children in an orphanage reach the age of fifteen, they must leave the orphanage and can no longer occupy a place in the orphanage because the number of places in the orphanage is limited.

As for what these orphans can do after leaving the orphanage, it depends on their choices.

If they behave well while in the orphanage, Li Qiao can arrange for them to work in his own shop or farm.

If someone cheats or acts dishonestly while in the orphanage, Li Qiao will refuse to provide him with a job.

In order to prevent being morally kidnapped, Li Qiao formulated some unfair terms.

There are limited beds in an orphanage. Every child who enters the orphanage will be strictly examined to make sure that the child is indeed an orphan with no one to rely on. Only then can they enter the orphanage.

If the orphanage finds someone has deliberately abandoned a child, it will report it to the authorities.

Moreover, once the orphanage is full, it will no longer accept orphans. No matter how pitiful or how much others scold him, he will harden his heart and ignore it.
