Chapter 251: The Crops Are Lost (3 more)
However, the rain did not stop, on the contrary, it became heavier and heavier.
"That's not good!" Xiang Han frowned, in this way, it is not just a matter of flooding, the question now is how many crops will be left after this rain? This year's harvest, I'm afraid it's going to be in the soup!
No, I should say that I'm already in the soup!
But what can be done about it? In the face of the forces of nature, human beings are so small!
Shaking his head a little helplessly, Xiang Han stood up and walked back to the city.
Xiang Han would come to the riverside in the suburbs every day to observe the changes in the water line, and then go to the fields to take a turn, first, to see the water potential, and second, to see the crops!
"It's the fifth day!" Xiang Han said with a frown.
"My lord, there have been floods in many places in Bingzhou and Jizhou!" Xiang Han had just returned to the house, and Xun Yu had already been waiting here.
"Huh? Did troops be sent to the rescue, and the losses were serious? Xiang Han opened his mouth and asked hurriedly.
"For the time being, it seems that there have been no casualties, and we have prevented them properly, so officials from all over the country have also dispatched troops and horses to help the people in the dangerous areas in the car, and the people are also very cooperative with this, and there has been no turmoil." Xun Yu said.
"Well, these victims must be properly resettled! The most important thing is that the disaster relief food must be delivered as soon as possible! Xiang Han opened his mouth and admonished.
"Yes!" Xun Yu nodded.
"Looking at the weather, the rain should still fall for two or three days, in this case, we can't relax, this flood will only get more and more ferocious!" Xiang Han admonished.
"Yes!" Xun Yu naturally understands this truth.
"Keep an eye on the weather, day or night, and report to me as soon as the rain stops!" Xiang Han said in a deep voice.
Xun Yu was stunned, what did Xiang Han want to do, why did he call him day and night?
"Do what I say, whatever I'm doing, whenever I want, come and inform me!" Xiang Han repeated again.
"Yes!" Xun Yu nodded, although he didn't know what Xiang Han meant, but since Xiang Han asked for this, then he could only comply.
In the next two days, the rain was still falling, and there were quite a few floods up and down the Han! Even Jingzhou and Yizhou are no exception!
Finally, the rain stopped at five o'clock on the eighth day!
Xiang Han was sleepy-eyed and dragged up from the bed by Xun Yu!
"What's wrong? Did something happen? Xiang Han's eyes were foggy, he didn't know what was going on, and he still had some doubts in his heart, why did Xun Yu call him so early?
"Lord, didn't you say that you want me to call you whenever the rain stops?" Xun Yu was a little depressed, this Xiang Han, wouldn't he have forgotten it?
When Xiang Han heard this, he realized that there seemed to be such a thing!
Wait, the rain has stopped?
Xiang Han was stunned, and then said: "Disaster relief materials will be sent to various places for me immediately, and give me a good monitoring of the plague, once there is an epidemic in any state or county, notify me immediately!" ”
"Yes!" Xun Yu nodded, his expression grim.
"Ah~ Go ahead!" Xiang Han let out a long yawn, then waved his hand, turned around and returned to his room.
What?
Xun Yu's eyes widened, the reason why this Xiang Han asked him to come so early was to say this?
Shaking his head with a wry smile, Xun Yu turned around and left.
After the rain, it should be a happy event, but no one can laugh, let's take Xiang Han, who suffered the least loss, for example, this flood, he lost fifty percent of his crops, and there were more than 20 cities flooded by the flood! Nearly 10,000 people were killed!
The people who died here are not the people who died, but the people who were homeless after the floods!
Such a result is still because Xiang Han made preparations in advance, such as Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others, their crops have already died of drought and waterlogging, and I am afraid that there will be no harvest this autumn!
Except for Xiang Han, the least losses may be Cao Cao and Sun Jian, Sun Jian was the least affected, plus he had prepared in advance, so the losses were also the lightest!
As for Cao Cao, at the very least, he left nearly thirty percent of the grain, if it was placed in the past, such a harvest was very low, Cao Cao would definitely not be satisfied, but the current situation, being able to keep these grains, = is already commendable!
"Lord, there are already grievances outside, what should we do now? Refugees abound, and even at the gate of the state capital, there are yellow-faced and thin-skinned refugees.
"Hey, how much food do we have now?" Yuan Shao sighed and said.
"Lord Qiqi, we basically don't have food now, and the last batch of food has been used for disaster relief." Xu You's face was wide-faced.
"Did you borrow some food for emergencies?" Yuan Shao asked.
"My lord, now that all the princes in the world are short of food, even if we want to borrow it, who can afford to borrow it?" Xu You said with a wry smile.
"Xiang Han!" Yuan Shao said in a deep voice, "Now, the princes of this world, maybe only Xiang Han has food in his hands!" ”
"But ......" Xu You opened his mouth, and finally nodded, although Xiang Han's attitude here is not so good, but for them Qingzhou, the only hope may be on Xiang Han's body!
"Let's let Nakaji run again!" Yuan Shao sighed.
"But what if Xiang Han Lion opens his mouth?" Xu You frowned, the last time he borrowed grain, Xiang Han didn't give him Yuan Shao's face, what now?
"As long as it's not too much, let's promise him!" Yuan Shao smiled bitterly, why hadn't he thought about this matter, but could he not pursue this only hope because Xiang Han might open his mouth? Obviously impossible!
"Yes!" Xu You nodded, understanding what Yuan Shao meant.
Soon, Xin Ping set off! Guan Yi, Yan Xiang, Yang Biao, Man Favor, and all the strategists under the princes rushed to Bingzhou!
Their purpose is the same, that is, to borrow food!
"Oh? So many people? Xiang Han smiled slightly, the corners of his mouth rose, and he came up with a good solution, "Let that full pet come first, and the rest, obstruct it more!" ”
Compared with Cao Cao, Xiang Han is more harsh on other princes, Cao Cao's friendship is good to talk about in private, as for the remaining four, they must be gathered together and discuss the matter in the open.
Xiang Han can do no interest on the grain he lent to Cao Cao, but Xiang Han can't do it with others! Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiang Han really wanted to blackmail these princes!
