A few days later, the old monk found Wu Limei and Ge Tianyu, saying that Ge Kailin was weak, and it was good for her to meditate in front of the Buddha, and it was best to wear red clothes, and the Zen monastery where she lived was surrounded by red.

Wu Limei was puzzled, but she didn't ask much, and rushed to make clothes for Ge Kailin, and Ge Tianyu sent a large number of red cloths to the temple first.

Ge Kailin saw that the old monk was directing the monks, and changed the items in the meditation room where she lived to red as much as possible from the inside to the outside, and red cloths were hung on the walls and doors of the trees, so she couldn't help but ridicule: "Old monk, isn't the Buddhist family mainly based on plainness, are you planning to decorate a new house?" ”

The old monk's face was full of sternness: "The big red color can prevent the leakage of energy and delay the aggravation of your condition, you must not take it seriously." ”

Ge Kailin didn't think that this method was useful, but she also felt that the old monk wanted to try his best to save her life, so she put away her joke.

Besides, her body is really not as good as before, so let's stay in this small courtyard safely and let everyone who cares about her rest assured.

He Liu came to report the death of Master Shi, and Ge Kailin was surprised: "So fast? ”

"Yes, I didn't expect it either," He Liu regretted, "I originally wanted to let Master Shi enjoy the taste of life is worse than death." ”

It's that he hasn't had time to use the means yet, Ge Kailin slandered, but he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

As soon as Master Shi died, his father had no one to restrain him for the time being, and he could throw away the breath he had suffered in the past few years and show his talents.

However, she still felt that she couldn't be completely reassured, Master Shi was dead, his son was still there, and Shi Liang would definitely not give up.

She told He Liu what she thought, and He Liu reassured her that Lin Zhuang would handle this matter.

Five days after getting the letter of appointment, Ge Tianyu officially became the mayor of the town, Xia Chengxiang allocated him one hundred taels of silver and five thousand catties of grain, as for the mayor's office and the personnel that should be equipped, the county could not come up with any extra money, and Ge Tianyu raised it himself.

The salaries of the staffed are also owed first, and when will they be paid. It depends on the income of the county treasury next year.

Ge Tianyu smiled bitterly, all the industries in his family were suspended, and most of the losses were due to the robbery and theft of the victims, in order to help resettle the victims. I also consumed a lot of silver and food, and when I became an official, I was a bare-bones, and I had to build money to organize the team.

One hundred taels of silver is not as much as Ge Kaiwu's pocket money, which is to limit each household to only half a catty of grain a day. The 5,000 catties of grain were enough to eat for a few days.

It was useless to say more, Ge Tianyu could only accept the reality, escorted by the officials, and returned to Ge Zhen with the 5,000 catties of grain.

When he was about to arrive at Ge Town, he saw an army encamped in the open space from a distance, Ge Tianyu wondered, could it be that there was chaos again?

He Liu's early Ge Tianyu returned to Ge Town, and at this time he brought people to meet him, Ge Tianyu asked him what was going on with the army, He Liu smiled and said: "The master who led the team also recognizes." It's acquaintances. ”

"Acquaintances?" Ge Tianyu was even more incomprehensible.

The only acquaintances in the army he recognized were Wu Ziyi and Zhou Ruofa, and as He Liu, he couldn't use the word acquaintance when mentioning these two people, so it was definitely Wu Ziyi and Zhou Ruofa, so who else.

If you really want to count acquaintances, General Lei, who suppressed the rebellion of the victims, can be regarded as the person who deals with him the most.

He Liu's words immediately confirmed Ge Tianyu's guess: "It's General Lei, he sent someone to deliver the news, and he is busy with resettlement at this time." Come and visit home when you have free time in the evening. ”

Ge Tianyu asked his own guards to escort the grain cart to the temporary warehouse of the theater to unload the grain, and he accompanied the officials of the county government to walk slowly.

After the soup soup incident, Ge Tianyu simply asked people to clean up the theater. Intended to be used as a temporary office space.

Before he arrived at the theater, he heard Ge Zhongsi's loud voice from afar: "This county order is really stingy, what can I do with this little bit of food, that is, I only drink porridge every day, and I can drink it for a few days." ”

The leading county official stood up and asked Ge Tianyu, "Master Ge." Is the person who is talking Ge-sama? ”

Ge Tianyu said: "It's my uncle, I don't know if it's the Lord Ge you said." ”

Ge Zhongsi had already shouted at Ge Tianyu: "It's okay if the mayor of this town doesn't do it, there is no money and no food." ”

When receiving money and grain, the county decree clearly stated that in the future, the county treasury would no longer supply money and grain to the resettlement areas of the disaster-stricken areas, and that the mayors or village chiefs of the resettlement areas would find their own solutions, that is to say, the lives and deaths of the disaster-stricken people in the future would be the business of the mayors and village heads of the resettlement areas.

In fact, Xia Chengxiang was also broken and broken, and the money and grain allocated above were not timely, and he had no choice but to distribute all the last grain stored in the county treasury to the resettlement area, and he waited for the court to punish him.

Since Ge Zhongji knew Xia Chengxiang's life experience, he was prejudiced against Xia Chengxiang, and only gave Ge Tianyu such a little food, in his eyes, Xia Chengxiang deliberately embarrassed Ge Tianyu.

Ge Tianyu was not worried about how this town mayor should be in charge, and sighed: "Let's hold on for a few days, there will definitely be a way." ”

Since Lin Yan let him accept the appointment of the mayor with peace of mind, Lin Zhuang must have a countermeasure.

Ge Zhongsi opened his mouth to speak, but he heard the leading official say in surprise: "Master Ge, I am Bacha, do you remember me?" ”

"Huh?" Ge Zhongji turned to the lead officer, stared at the other party's face for a moment, and then looked at the other party's right hand.

"Look, look, I'm the Eight Forks," the lead official stretched out his right arm, his fingers outstretched, and his right hand was missing two fingers.

"Dead boy, he has a big beard at a young age, how can you let me recognize it." The loud voice was opened, and Ge punched Bacha in the chest, causing Bacha to take two steps back before he could stand.

Ge Zhongsi frowned: "I can't even eat a punch, why is it so useless." ”

There was a servant next to him who explained: "My lord, the county government can't pay salaries, and has repeatedly cut manpower, and the little ones haven't rested since the disaster, and the boss said that he doesn't have a family to take care of, and he is on duty for his brothers, and he comes up day by day, his body is too tired, where can he stand the iron fist of the adults." ”

Ge Zhongsi was angry: "Hmph, the dignified county order can't even pay the salary, Bacha, you just come to Ge Town, there is a shortage of manpower here, you were picked up by me, just follow me." ”

The six fingers are happy: "Yes, the eight forks obey." ”

"Look at your little bit of interest, go, go back with me, take care of your body, how can you take on a heavy responsibility if you are so weak." couldn't help but say, Ge Zhongsi pulled up the eight forks and left.

Ge Tianyu is funny, this eight-pronged future will indeed be very heavy, but most of them will be tossed by his uncle.

Xu Nie now revolves around his sister every day, taking care of Master Xu for his sister, and has no time to pay attention to his uncle, who is bored and bored, and Bacha just sent it to the door for his uncle to toss.

In the evening, General Lei really came to visit and explained the purpose of his army stationed this time.

Wu Limei was pleasantly surprised: "My eldest sister is really coming in a few days?" ”

General Ray replied, "Yes." It will arrive in 10 days at the latest, and I will first transport some of the winter supplies to comfort the victims, and the lord and his wife will arrive with the follow-up material team. ”

Ge Tianyu asked: "The weather is cold, and the ground is as hard as stone. How to build a greenhouse. ”

General Lei said: "Soldiers march to fight, no matter what the weather is, whether the environment is bad or not, it is possible to set up camp at any time, and now this situation is a trivial matter at all." We have a way to put up a greenhouse. ”

"But," Ge Tianyu still had doubts, "even if the greenhouse is erected, I am afraid that it will not be possible to grow vegetables on the frozen wasteland." ”

"I also know this," General Lei said with a smile, "Now it is only an expedient measure to build a warm shelter, in order to reassure the victims." ”

Ge Tianyu seemed to have an understanding: "What does it have to do with building a greenhouse and the victims?" ”

General Lei changed his righteousness just now and laughed: "Although I am Ruofa's subordinate, I worship him as a brother, so it is really awkward to call the two old ladies so that they simply call the two aunts and uncles with Ruofa." The third aunt and the third uncle don't say anything about the general, just call me Dongzhu, and the father-in-law who passed the decree arrived with the father-in-law and the mother-in-law, and then they would know what the relationship between the victims and the greenhouse was. ”

Without waiting for Ge Tianyu and Wu Limei to react, Lei Dongzhu was already talking to himself, and the third aunt and third uncle were calling.

Ge Tianyu and Wu Limei looked at each other, how could there still be a father-in-law?

After pulling a few words, Lei Dongzhu said the right thing: "Third uncle, Dongzhu will bring a batch of winter materials first, and ask the third uncle to send someone to help me tomorrow." It is important that everyone receives the supplies, and that no sinister or trickster is allowed to claim them repeatedly. ”

Ge Tianyu nodded: "Okay, I will definitely help with this." ”

Lei Dongzhu said happily: "Thank you third uncle, Dongzhu still has a request." At the same time as distributing winter goods, it is necessary to recruit workers to build greenhouses, and there is a difference between the materials received by those who should be recruited and those who should not be recruited, and the materials of those who should be recruited should be richer, and it is inevitable that someone will get rich materials, even if he himself is not suitable for this heavy work. I also have to respond, the people in the house have a lot of dealings with the victims, I am familiar with the situation of the victims, and I ask the third uncle to help me tomorrow. ”

These two requests are actually a question, but Lei Dongzhu wanted to say them separately, Ge Tianyu simply asked him: "What else does the general want, as long as I can do it, I will never refuse, please say it together." ”

Lei Dongzhu said: "When I set off, my eldest brother told me that the third aunt's family industry may not be affected by the disaster, and it is a matter of duty for the garrison army to ensure the safety of one side. ”

That is, there is an army covering, and there is no fear that someone will take advantage of the chaos to make trouble.

Ge Tianyu and Wu Limei thanked each other: "Then thank you General Lei." ”

"Why do the third aunts and third uncles still call me general," Lei Dongzhu pretended to be angry: "Since Ruofa and I are brothers, we must respect the second elder as much as Ruofa, and the third aunt and third uncle will call me Dongzhu in the future." ”

Ge Tianyu said with a smile: "Okay, then my husband and wife are welcome, I will call you Dongzhu in the future, Dongzhu will not see you in the future, just say it if there is anything." ”

Lei Dongzhu replied heartily: "Yes, Dongzhu will not be polite." ”

Regardless of whether Lei Dongzhu is true temperament or sees the wind and rudder, he temporarily relieved Ge Tianyu's urgent need by doing so, and the current shape is beneficial to the Ge family, and the next day when the winter materials were distributed to the victims, Ge Tianyu came to the scene in person.

Winter materials are nothing more than cotton clothes and bedding and the like, ten catties of food per person, should be recruited to build a warm shed and qualified people, plus a cotton vest, a pair of thick leather cotton shoes, every day the army not only manages the meal, but also can receive a pound of charcoal after work, charcoal in general, smoke after burning, but it is better than nothing.

After the cold weather, in addition to the Gejia Mountain, there are people guarding it, and the nearby ones that can be burned to keep warm have been swept up by the victims, and then far away is the territory of other towns, the situation is similar to Ge Town, there is this pound of charcoal, burned at night to keep warm, saving the same cold body as before to drill into the bed.

There are old people and little babies at home, and this charcoal is more expensive, which is simply a life-saving medicine.

Basically, only male workers are recruited to build a greenhouse, and only a very small number of women with great strength are selected to help cook, and other women have no choice.

After the recruitment of workers in the greenhouse was over, Wu Limei made people say that the garment factory recruited workers, only female workers, which immediately caused a commotion among the victims, and all women who could walk were vying to sign up, including old women in their seventies and eighties.

With the cancellation of the rejection letter, the Ge family was able to generously admit the relationship with the Ge family in Liangping Town, and the garment workshop also reused the signboard of the Liyi Workshop, and it was able to follow the rules when the Liyi Workshop recruited workers.

As Wu Limei expected, many people took the initiative to ask for a deed of identity when they were recruited.

In the past, there have been refugees who took the initiative to come to the door to sell themselves, frankly saying that as long as they do not make big mistakes, the host family will not be defeated, even if there is no personal freedom, at least there is no need to endure hunger and cold.

It is not surprising that he sold himself to a rich family in order to have food and clothing, the key is that Gefu was not short of manpower at that time, but there was a shortage of manpower, and there were too many victims, as long as a precedent was set to buy one, others would follow suit and entangle, so Gefu did not agree at that time.

Now the situation is different, with Lei Dongzhu's garrison to deter, Gefu has a choice, and he can also take the opportunity to expand the industry.

However, soon a real problem came to mind.

When the victims from other places got the news and heard that Gezhen was recruiting workers and distributing winter supplies, only a few people braved the cold to come to Gezhen at first, and gradually more and more people came, and finally they poured into Gezhen in batches.

And the materials brought by Lei Dongzhu are only enough to be sent to the original victims in Gezhen, and the Ge family does not need so many people, and with so many disaster victims, housing has also become a problem.

No matter how noisy the victims were at the foot of the mountain, Ge Kailin just stayed in her own temple, and the small Zen courtyard arranged like a sea of red became her only shelter, and she never went out, and only Liu Ma and Edelweiss accompanied her.

Edelweiss is now her only playmate, and her stove, and the little ones occasionally go out for a while, and every time they come back, they bring some gadgets to them, mostly small animals like squirrels and rabbits, and they are released after a while of being teased by them.

After Master Xu fell into a coma, Xuefeng, who originally liked to play crazy, also recovered the state of guarding each other with Xu Xinyu when he was at Xu's house, and sometimes followed Xu Xinyu to accompany Ge Kailin on the mountain, but he couldn't stay long.

Shui Jue would come every day to report what was happening under the mountain, and He Liu would also come when he was free, and Ge Kailin knew the situation in Ge Zhen very well.

When she was idle, Ge Kailin read some travel logs and books on landscape customs, and the set of "Buddhist Holy Land" given to her by Xu Xiang had read it more than once.

Because her spirit is not as good as before, she gets tired after reading every time she reads a book, but she can't sleep steadily, even if there is no movement to disturb her, she can only squint slightly, and most of them lie on the bed and pretend to sleep.

It's the same tonight. (To be continued.) )
