Chapter 63
Happy New Year and all the best
Earthquakes and tsunamis have a great impact on islands in the sea.
After all, the island is northeast of Ryulushima, and most of the winds are from the southwest this season, so the volcanic ash is not blown to the island.
But even so, the abnormal weather caused by the earthquake also caused a lot of damage to the Ryukyu Islands.
The earth shook and the storms were raging, causing the houses on these islands to collapse six or seven times out of ten, and many people died.
But those aristocratic lords didn't have the heart to go to disaster relief, and of course most of the dead were those they thought were lowly people.
The Guijia occupies two-thirds of the territory of Rongcheng, and the rest are vassal families and outsiders.
The Rong family also suffered a lot of losses this time, but on such an island, earthquakes and tsunamis often occur, and they were not too frightened.
Houses collapsed, and deaths were inevitable.
This earthquake was stronger than before, and many houses collapsed in the old mansion of the Rong family, and the head of the Rong family sat in the hall with a gloomy face.
"Tell someone to clean up this place first, you can see that there is cracked, and hurry up to strengthen and repair it. ”
The Rong family is not very tall, with a black face, sparse eyebrows, a big-mouthed goatee, and a pair of small eyes flashing with cold light, revealing coldness and ruthlessness.
Don't look at this man as a bit obscene, but the people of the Ryukyu Islands know his temperament, ruthless and ruthless.
Coldly watched the servants come in and out busily, but his heart was extremely irritable.
This sudden disaster almost destroyed his expensive courtyard, and the treasures he collected also suffered a lot of losses.
Seeing the family's cold face, everyone was frightened, and the fat housekeeper was sweating profusely.
"Master, that warehouse has collapsed. ”
"What? What did you say?"
The head of the Rong family jumped up, bursting with anger.
The warehouse that the fat butler said was a special warehouse, where all the Rong family's belongings came to an end, why did it collapse.
"The head of the family, don't worry, I went to see it just now, but it just collapsed, so I sent the children of the master of the family to repair it. ”
How dare the fat butler tell the truth, in fact, he would be serious.
"The notice went down, and the tax was increased tenfold. ”
"Yes. ”
The fat butler breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the patriarch gave this order, he would be able to do it.
After each disaster, the Rong family patriarch would use this method to make up for his own losses.
He doesn't care about ordinary people.
"The head of the family, there are more than 500 people who are seriously injured, how to deal with it?"
"The Rong family doesn't raise waste, so they all throw it into the Hunhe River to feed the fish. ”
The fat butler nodded, he knew that it was done every time, but he had to get the master's password before he could act.
There is a river called Hunhe River in the east of Rongcheng, Hunhe River was not mixed originally, but artificially became Hunhe River, one is that the wastewater discharge of Rongcheng is discharged to the Hunhe River, and the other is that the dead people or dead livestock and sundries are thrown into the Hunhe River.
Finally, the Hunhe River is relatively wide and the water flow is turbulent, otherwise it would have been silted up over the years.
The source of the Hunhe River is in Yushan.
There is also a river in the southwest of Rongcheng, called the Qing River, the river channel is not wide, the water flow is not urgent, this river is a river that connects several small towns upstream, and it is also a drinking water river for people.
The two rivers converge in the Ming and Qing Ponds, so the third of the Ming and Qing Ponds near Rongcheng is fresh water, and the rest is salt water.
However, there are also changes, and at high tide the Ming and Qing Dynasties basically become a saltwater pool, and the seawater backs up, raising the water levels of the two rivers.
At low tide, some of the water recedes, and fresh water takes up part of the territory.
It was a very windy night, with rolling black clouds and intermittent rain, and although it was on the island, the waves were not small.
Zhang Xian stood at the bow of the boat, and behind him were the old brothers and sisters of the banker, Luo Yu and Yu Fei'er.
