Chapter 17: Natural Disasters

Heavy rains in Shonan Province have been falling, so much so that the low-lying prefectures have been flooded.

Qingshi Village is a hilly area that cannot hold rainwater, and the heavy rain for more than 20 consecutive days has caused many reservoirs and ponds to have landslides of different degrees.

Liu Xing's herring fish reservoir, fortunately, before the heavy rain, had already paid for excavators and rollers to reinforce it, otherwise, there would be a danger of collapse.

At noon on the third day of the cooperation with Liu Xing, Yu Lajun took a large group of reporters to the sand in the backyard of the courtyard to shoot the lettuce that had grown green and connected, but because the rain was too heavy, there was really no good effect, and after several unsuccessful shooting, he left hastily.

After Liu Xing sent them away, he thought about the 100 acres of lettuce in the backyard, and was afraid that he would be flooded, so he turned around and wanted to go into the miscellaneous room and take a hoe and a hat to dredge the stagnant water in the low-lying part of the sand field.

At this time, a small reservoir connected to the rural road of Qingshi Village suddenly heard a dull rumbling sound, and then there was a rolling wave, which washed away the only rural road in Qingshi Village.

The levee has burst

The only rural road through Qingshi Village was interrupted

Listening to this huge movement, Liu Xing, who ran out in shock, looked at the rural road that was winding like a snake in front of him, and was cut off by the waist, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, this is a big trouble, there is no rural road connected to the king of the country, then the business of the king of the country

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart

The pouring rain did not gradually stop until the evening, and the village chief Wang Meng and a few elderly Qingshi villagers stood on the muddy village road with a hat, looking at the collapsed small reservoir embankment, like a wood carving for a while, speechless.

Where will this huge amount of money come from to repair the collapsed country roads?

Qingshi Village is not rich in the first place, this sudden flood disaster, I am afraid that it will increase the financial pressure of Qingshi Village, looking at this 50-meter-long embankment, Wang Meng knows, I am afraid that there are hundreds of thousands of people who cannot be repaired.

At this time, Liu Xing appeared beside Wang Meng wearing galoshes and holding an umbrella, frowned, looked at the collapsed embankment and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Meng, when will this embankment be repaired?" ”

If the rural road in this Qingshi Village is not repaired for a day, then the king of his village may have to continue to lose money and even close down.

"I don't know! Star baby. Wang Meng wiped the rain on his beard, and said helplessly: "The heavy rain has been falling non-stop, even if you have money, you can't repair it, not to mention that our Qingshi Village is still in deficit now, I think to repair this embankment that was washed away by the heavy rain, the only way to ask the county for money." ”

Liu Xing was silent.

Ask the county for money

It's like plucking the feathers on the iron rooster, and without a three-year and five-year approval, I'm afraid you won't be able to get the money.

By then, the king of his country would have gone out of business long ago.

"Uncle Meng" Liu Xing pointed to the hilly tunnel to the east and said: "Why don't we open a road from there first, and when the heavy rain passes, we are discussing the repair of the rural road." ”

"There?" Wang Meng looked in the direction pointed by Liu Xing, and his brows couldn't help frowning: "There is a road that can only be opened up to make people not work, if you want to get a car through guò, I'm afraid it's a little difficult!" That's a big project! Behold! Let's wait for the heavy rain to stop before we figure it out! ”

Liu Xing was anxious when he heard this.

If the heavy rain stops, it will be two months later, and then his king of the village, I'm afraid that the daylilies will be cold, so why build roads?

"Uncle Meng" Liu Xing looked at Wang Meng anxiously.

"Don't talk about it." Wang Meng shook his head: "You repaired the dam of the Qingyu Reservoir in advance a few days ago, did you already know that it would rain heavily?" If you tell me about the flood situation in advance, I will take someone to take precautions, and I am afraid that such a bad situation will not occur. ”

Liu Xingyu was stopped.

If the Dragon King Meteorological Instrument could say the weather forecast casually, he would have said it a long time ago, and he would have to wait until Wang Meng said it?

Besides

Will you Wang Meng believe it?

In fact, Wang Meng was also angry just now, of course he didn't believe that Liu Xing could know in advance that it would rain, seeing that the heavy rain had stopped, he rolled up his trouser legs, beckoned a few people who had brought, and went into the water with a hoe to check the flood situation.

Liu Xing returned to the courtyard sullenly.

Because of the heavy rain that washed away the country road, the hall that should have been full was deserted at the moment, and there were not a single guest.

Tu Long, Tu Gang and the others sat silently at the table by the window, looking at the rain-washed Qingshi Village outside.

They know.

What does the flood mean to the king of the country?

It represents that the king of the village who opened a prosperous business has gone to hell!

Liu Xing knew that everyone was depressed at this time, and he didn't want to disturb everyone, so he silently walked to the cashier desk in the hall, and said softly to Elaine, who was settling accounts: "Elaine, you can settle everyone's salary for me, and if you calculate it, you will pay everyone later!" After all, it's been a month since the King of the Country opened. ”

Elaine, who was counting the monthly profit of the king of the village, pushed the gold-rimmed glasses and looked at Liu Xing with some surprise, nodded after being stunned, handed over the bill in his hand and said: "According to the boss's salary last time, a total of 190,000 yuan, if you don't say it today, I will also send you the bank card that has been prepared a long time ago tomorrow." ”

Liu Xing nodded approvingly.

He sighed softly, looking at the king of the village who was a little demoralized, and it was not easy for him to say anything to encourage everyone at this time, after all, the flood that washed away the country road is a natural disaster that is rare in a hundred years.

who

It can't be changed.

Seeing Elaine take the bank cards and send them one by one, Liu Xing turned around and was about to walk into his bedroom, he had to find a way to get rid of the dead knot of the current king of the country, he didn't want the king of the country who had worked hard to run it to go out of business like this.

As soon as he opened the bedroom door, Chen Ke'er ran over behind him, and said a little hesitantly: "Boss, I have something I want to tell you." ”

Liu Xing turned his head and looked at Chen Ke'er, who was a little embarrassed, with a faint smile, leaned against the door and said, "Tell me something!" As long as it's not too difficult, I'll promise you. ”

He estimated that Chen Keer had been in this king of the countryside for almost a month, and he probably wanted to go home.

"That's the case" Chen Ke'er looked at Liu Xing with a sudden flash of phoenix eyes, gently bit the cherry mouth, and whispered: "I heard Zhou Ziqiang say, you were paying attention to the business of the warm home a few days ago, I want to ask you to do a favor!" ”

Cosy home

Liu Xing, who was a little surprised, frowned thickly.

He didn't tell Zhou Ziqiang about the acquisition of Warm Home, but just told Zhou Ziqiang that he wanted him to ask Chen Keer about Warm Home, but he didn't expect that Chen Jiao, the owner of Warm Home, didn't want to sell Warm Home in the end, and invited a French chef to save the scene.

Swear to fight to the end with the Sichuan Fish King opposite!

Chen Jiao's courage to break the kettle was so great that Liu Xing admired it, but Chen Jiao actually invited a French chef, why did he have to help himself? Is it the idea of wanting to hunt wild celery?

"If there's anything you want to help with, you can say it!" Liu Xingguo looked at Chen Ke'er with a heavy face, if their Chen family was still fighting wild celery, then I'm sorry, the answer must be no.

Chen Ke'er is very good at observing words and feelings, and when she saw Liu Xing's gloomy face, she bit her cherry lip and didn't dare to speak. Last time, Duokou told his uncle about the wild celery, and he will never forget the consequences of the strict zhòng in his life.

But

She still poked her well-behaved head and said cautiously: "That's the case, you see that the rural roads in Qingshi Village have been washed away by the flood, and the customers of this king of the village must not be able to enter, so I mean to say so!" It's also what my uncle meant, he wants to ask the head chef of the king of the village, Tu Long and Tu Gang, to come to him to help him for a month, I don't know if you agree"

Chen Keer's last few words are almost mosquitoes, if it weren't for Liu Xing's good ear, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to hear it.

It turned out that Chen Keer was not talking about wild celery

Liu Xing's furrowed brows loosened slightly, of course he understood what Chen Ke'er meant.

If the rural road of Qingshi Village is not repaired, the guests who come to eat at the king of the village will not be able to come at all, there is indeed no business to do, and it is understandable to go to the warm home to help, after all, everyone is an acquaintance.
