The atmosphere of the villa is very good, and Yan Qihao here has also been to the countryside to see, sure enough, the situation is not too good, the roof above the thatched house is not much, now the villagers are laying a layer of tung oil cloth on it, pressing it with stones, so that the rainwater can not leak in, but this is only a temporary way to think of, it is impossible to persist for a long time.

For them, the only way is to scoop out the water with gourd scoops, wooden basins and other things, so as not to fill them too much, which is also a temporary solution, and the only way to solve it completely is to let the rain stop, but this is impossible, so they have to do something that can be done by manpower.

"Lord Wang, that's what we've seen, so what are we going to do now? The only way to solve the problem of the roof for the common people is to buy some materials to fix the roof, and to drain the water for each villager, which requires a lot of manpower and financial resources to be able to do it, so you need to ask the emperor to allocate money! General Ma Shengtian said. He is not a person who pays attention to enjoyment, and the reason why he is a general is because he has continuously built up military merits, and he has suffered countless minor injuries and several serious injuries that almost cost him his life, so of course he is a person who can suffer, and he also knows the significance of the people to a country, so it is also very uncomfortable to see such a situation at this time.

"Okay, General Ma, you will take people to help the people directly, I went to ask the imperial brother, got the silver, bought tung tarpaulin and cement (ps: I know that it was not called cement in ancient times, but I can't find out what it is called, so I use the modern name!) After that, come back again. Yan Qihao also knew that this was the most appropriate approach, after all, he had brought some, but the things that needed were not ready, so after seeing the situation of the people, it was necessary to go back.

"Brother Huang, this is the situation I saw, the most important thing to prepare now is tung tarpaulin and cement, fix the roof, and then buy some gourd scoops to help the people remove the water from the house, but in fact it is not very useful. Because when people built houses, they couldn't have expected such things to happen, so there was no specific place to build a house on higher ground. After Yan Qihao explained the situation, he also said a way to solve it temporarily.

"Okay, then I'll give you a million taels just like during the drought, the best if you have more, and if you have less, you can just take it again." Yan Qijin heard everything Yan Qihao said clearly, and understood that this was the best way, of course, this was only temporary. Such a rain, although the palace has a special passage to water, so there is no worry about full water, but the people are not happy, and as the emperor, of course, he has to solve the problem for the people!

"Brother Huang, don't worry too much, because this is a natural disaster, just like the drought last year, it is a natural disaster. If only the drought and the flood had been balanced, the drought would not have been due to a lack of water, and the current flood would not have been due to a lack of water, but if that were the case, it would have been very simple. Then I'll go to [Hubu] to get the silver ticket, I hope this rain can stop as soon as possible! Yan Qihao said, picked up the handwritten edict written by Yan Qijin and left, there are still many problems that need to be solved.

Yan Qihao bought a thousand pieces of tung oil cloth, because it is not a roof that only needs one tung oil cloth, so it is better to buy more and be prepared. However, because this tung oil cloth was originally used to make umbrellas, he still bought such a large piece, one covered by a roof, which can make five or six umbrellas, and he bought the best one, so a thousand pieces of tung oil cloth cost him more than 3,000 taels, plus more than 300 bags of cement more than 1,000 taels, a total of more than 5,000 taels.

Yan Qihao asked people to transport these things to various villages first, and then came to the villa, because it was already night, he needed to eat a meal and rest, and after he came back from that day, he entered the palace, so he directly received the holy decree and selected officials. After that, he went to the village to check the situation, and then he came back and entered the palace, which took five days, and now he really wanted to see Zhan Xiaoyan, and talk to her about his troubles, so that his head that was about to explode was relieved.

"Coming? Come on in! Dinner is ready, you don't have to say anything, fill your stomach first! Yan Qihao had just walked into the villa when he heard the sound of a smile. As soon as he looked up, he saw her standing at the door of the dining room, the candlelight in the room projected out, shining on her body, from his own angle, he should have seen her face clearly, but he saw it very clearly, whether it was the smile on Zhan Xiaoyan's face at this time, or the emotions in her eyes, it was clearly seen, and at this moment, her appearance was also clearly imprinted on his heart.

"Come on, come on, Yan boy, you just eat more, don't be polite, you must have worked hard these days, don't be polite here, eat more!" After everyone sat down around the dinner table, Guan Lao gave Yan Qihao a lot of food, firstly because he knew that he had worked hard in the past few days, and secondly, because he saw the subtle changes between Yan Qihao and Zhan Xiaoyan, and knew that Yan Qihao was a very good man, so although he didn't like to deal with people from the royal family very much, he had a good impression of Yan Qihao after getting along. No matter whether he and Zhan Xiaoyan can get together in the future, he will be a junior he likes.

After dinner, Yan Qihao was taken into the study by Guan Lao, although the latter knew that he had something to say to Zhan Xiaoyan, but he wanted to ask everything clearly, and wanted to know what the situation was outside. Guan Lao is not a person who only cares about his own enjoyment, he also cares about the disaster, and he also saw that Zhan Xiaoyan also wanted to know, so he said hello first.

"Really? It turns out that you came back to buy things today, and then went to the mountain village to rest for a while, and then you will continue to travel to the countryside tomorrow. In that case, then you can go back and rest, don't talk to the girl for too long, go to bed early! After listening to what Yan Qihao said, Guan Lao nodded and said. Because the reason why he asked was to see if there were any injured or sick people, then he could help them, and now after listening to Yan Qihao, he didn't need to go for the time being. Then after knowing what he wants to know, he will no longer keep him.

"Okay, then senior, you should also rest early, and when I am busy for a while, I will come to accompany you to play boxing and chess." After Yan Qihao finished speaking, he walked out of the study, just come here, and after he said this to Guan Lao, he felt a lot more comfortable, and after chatting with Zhan Xiaoyan for a while, he must be in a better mood.

"Finished talking to grandpa? Then come over for a cup of tea and get a good night's sleep! I also have some thoughts about this flood, and I have written them down, and I will see them when you leave here tomorrow and return to the countryside. You don't need to tell me anything tonight, after drinking this cup of fruit tea, go back to sleep, and then leave tomorrow after breakfast. Zhan Xiaoyan listened to the knock on the door, and after opening the door, he saw Yan Qihao unexpectedly, and after letting him in, he poured it out and let it cool, and handed him the fruit tea that was just right to drink at this time, and said so.

"Really? Xiaoyan, you also wrote your own thoughts! Then I'll definitely take a good look at it, and I'm sure you'll have a clever idea. Then the reason why I came here today is not only because I am busy these days and I feel tired, but also because I miss you! Because I must still be busy in the future, no matter how many days the rain will fall, the follow-up work will have to be dealt with, and I can't come back to see you for the time being, so I mainly want to see you today. Yan Qihao said after drinking tea.

"Okay, I got it. In any case, you still have to deal with the things at hand first, because you are not only doing these things for yourself, but also for the people, right? So despite being busy, it's also worth it because everything is done in an orderly manner. Zhan smiled and nodded, and when she said the first sentence, the tenderness and joy that flashed in her eyes made Yan Qihao capture it, knowing that she had taken her words to heart.

"Yes, I know! Even if I'm not a regent, but a person with a little bit of money, I will donate some when I see this situation, but now I have to help the people, and I have no hesitation. So although I am busy, I will also try my best to do everything well, and now I hope that this rain can stop as soon as possible, otherwise the people will suffer far more than that! When Yan Qihao said this, his mood was also a little heavy, after all, the foundation of the country is the people.

"Well, the weather is not something we can control, since the amount of water is too large and it has affected our lives, we have to solve this problem, and the rain will stop sooner or later. Come on, that's what I've written, you are not allowed to read it tonight, and if you must read it, then read it tomorrow morning when you wake up! Zhan Xiaoyan also saw Yan Qihao's anxiety and worry, and knew why he was, but the problem was already there, so he had to solve it.

"Well, then I'll go back to sleep, you go to bed early, tomorrow I'm going to 'Chengcheng Village', and the villages near it, even if it's horsebacking, it will take a day and a half to get there, and there are other villages next to it, and everything has to be dealt with one by one!" After Yan Qihao finished speaking, he took the things written by Zhan Xiaoyan and left.

After returning to the room, he wanted to open it directly, but he remembered what Zhan Xiaoyan had just said, so he put it on the side of the bed, lay on the bed and closed his eyes, and fell asleep after a while.

Of course, because Zhan Xiaoyan put a medicinal powder in the fruit tea that can make people sleep peacefully, and after he took it, he would fall asleep in half an hour, so even if Yan Qihao wanted to read what she wrote directly, he would fall asleep without reading much. Thinking about the five days, because there are a lot of things to deal with, Yan Qihao must not have had a good night's sleep for a long time, so he must sleep peacefully tonight!

The next day, after Zhan smiled, when she passed by the study, she heard the sound of discussion coming from inside, smiled slightly, and continued to walk towards the dining room, it seemed that she had to bring breakfast to the two of them! At this time, it was more than half of the hour, I didn't expect Yan Qihao to wake up so early, and then after reading what he wrote, he came over to discuss with Guan Lao, and the only people who could discuss these contents with him here were himself and his grandfather, so he hadn't gotten up yet, Yan Qihao found his grandfather!

Yan Qihao and Guan Lao discussed for a long time in the study, after Zhan Xiaoyan sent breakfast out, they were still discussing, and finally Yan Qihao left in the middle of the hour, originally Zhan Xiaoyan still wanted to keep him for lunch, but he insisted on leaving, and also said that he wanted to let people implement these methods as soon as possible, and the time was delayed, so he left directly.

Yan Qihao entered the palace again and told Yan Qijin about the several methods that Zhan Xiaoyan said, the most important of which was to let people prepare sand and sacks, and let people make sandbags of sand and sacks, which are stacked together, which can absorb water and block the exit. Such sandbags are not usually used, only when the embankment is broken, and the flood is about to overflow, the reason why it is used now is because the water is really full of a lot, so the use of large sandbags, even if it can not directly solve the fundamental problem for the people, but at least it can effectively absorb water and alleviate this problem.

After Yan Qihao and Yan Qijin finished speaking, they went directly to make arrangements. Because of the method of writing with a smile, preparing large sandbags is the first way, and the second is to organize businessmen near the village who have a little money and do business at home, to prepare enough sandbags and food and other necessities, and when the rain passes, rewards will be given to those who perform well. Because merchants are not short of money, what they lack is only fame, and this reputation is the recognition of them by the imperial court. If money can be exchanged for a good reputation, or in such a situation, I believe they will not refuse!

Yan Qihao looked at what Zhan Xiaoyan wrote, there were only three pages before and after, and when he read it more than ten times, the first time was a quick browsing; The second time is to look at each method, and then go through it in my mind to see if it really works and works; The third time is to watch carefully word by word, and then follow the method written above to discuss with Guan Lao and the imperial brother; When I look at the fourth time, of course, it is the implementation of the method. So now, he asked people to take things to the 'Integration Village' first, and after he discussed it with the imperial brother, he also followed later. (To be continued.) )
