Chapter 189: Disaster Resistance
"Turtle son, I've been here for so many years, what are you doing?"
Shen Zi was very dissatisfied and lay on the ground, facing the sky with his back, and muttered.
A man in his thirties on the side smiled lightly: "Didn't you know when you came." We are the sheep newspaper, and the sheep newspaper is specially guarding the upstream and observing the water level. ”
"Observe what is the use of this, Lao Tzu is interested in the triple salary." After Shen was stunned, he was suddenly curious: "Hey, Lao Zhang, Zhang Xiaoyue, you are not from Sichuan, right?" ”
"It's not." "Lao Zhang" Zhang Xiaoyue shook his head: "I am from Nantong, Jiangsu. ”
"That's weird, what are you doing in Sichuan from Nantong?" Shen was stunned and said curiously.
Zhang Xiaoyue took off a wine gourd from his waist and took a sip: "I was tired of staying at home in Nantong, so I wanted to go around, and I turned to Sichuan." I happened to see that Chuannan was recruiting sheep newspapers there, so I took a name. ”
"Well, I've heard that this sheep is in danger." Shen was stunned and mysterious.
Zhang Xiaoyue smiled: "I know, nine out of ten can't survive." can die a sheep report, can live a large number of people, that Wang Hengyue Wang Zhen envoy, did a good deed. But I wondered, how did he know there was going to be a flood? ”
"I'm taking a fancy to the triple salary and triple the pension." Shen was stunned and sighed: "My family is poor, and the family is waiting for me to take the silver back to raise it, I am really going to die, and I can let my younger brother finish his studies to support the family." Hey, what about you, Lao Zhang? You also came for the money? ”
"It's not." Zhang Xiaoyue shook his head: "My family has hundreds of acres of land, and there is a flour mill and a textile factory in the city. ”
"You?" Shen stunned his eyes widened and looked at him, suddenly laughed, rolled on the ground with laughter, hummed happily, and said breathlessly: "I'm stunned enough to brag, I didn't expect you to brag better than me!" You want a few hundred acres of land at home, what kind of factory, can you do this? ”
Zhang Xiaoyue smiled, picked up the wine gourd and took a few sips, without arguing anything
"Heng Shuai, the grain purchased in Hunan, Hubei and other places has come back, water transportation, land transportation, plus Chengdu delivery, the food hoarded in the past few months is enough for our army to support a year or two, we are so wantonly buying, the price of food around us has also risen!"
Wang Hengyue nodded: "I hope I can get through it"
"By the way, in addition to food and medicine, Qin Guangcheng from Chengdu also invited us a few Western doctors, and the leader of the team is Dimu."
"Well, not only Western medicine, but also Chinese medicine should invite more. There are many plagues after the great calamity, and they will all come in handy when the time comes. By the way, call me that Diem. ”
After waiting there for a while, in his forties, the tall Dim came to Wang Hengyue.
"You're my employee now." Wang Hengyue said straight to the point: "Do you have any requirements?" Wages? ”
"No, we can talk about wages slowly." Diemd's answer was unexpected: "I am from Bavaria, and I came to China to build a welfare hospital. There are a lot of people in China who live in very poor people, and they can't afford to see a doctor when they are sick, so I want to build a hospital that treats the poor for free. ”
Oh? And such people? Wang Hengyue didn't expect it.
Well, there are Americans under my men, there are artillery men myself, there are British and French instructors in military academies, and then a German, very good, I am about to become a United Nations here.
Dim said with a serious face: "Mr. Town Guard, we can leave the salary matter aside for the time being. But I want you to be able to build a welfare hospital, and my medical team and I would love to work here.
"Okay, I promise you!" Wang Hengyue nodded and responded: "I will temporarily open up a place in Leshan as your hospital, you can tell me what equipment you need, and I will try my best to satisfy you!" ”
"Thank you, Keeper Lord. So, please take us on a tour of the place you talk about. "Dim is so rigid that he doesn't seem to be born to laugh.
Wang Hengyue sent someone to take Dimu and his medical team over, and then called Wang Qinglu to the front:
"Huai Zhao, put aside all the things at hand, put your main energy into the rescue work after the flood comes, and organize a group of capable personnel to come out!"
"Yes, my subordinates will do it immediately!"
"Are the factories ready?"
"Yes, all the emergencies are ready."
Wang Hengyue pursed his lips: "Go ahead." ”
stood there for a while: "Come on, go to Luzhou!" ”
"Hengshuai, why are you here?"
Seeing Heng Shuai suddenly appear, Ma Xiao was a little surprised.
"Ma San, have you received all my orders?" Wang Hengyue didn't greet him, and said bluntly.
"I received it, Luzhou has made preparations, but how can the flood really come, I'm afraid"
"yes, the flood is really coming, and the little preparation we have doesn't make much difference." Wang Hengyue sighed softly: "But it's good to be able to save one more person and recover some more losses." ”
Ma Xiao smiled bitterly: "The problem is, there are still many people who don't believe our words, and they all say that how can there be a flood on this day?" ”
Wang Hengyue shook his head: "Go, take me to see!" ”
The people of Luzhou don't seem to take the notice too seriously, especially those who live by the river, and they don't have any intention of evacuating at all, what life was like before and what it is still like now.
Wang Hengyue looked at it for a while, and grabbed an elderly man: "Didn't you see the notice of the political axe?" The flood is coming, why not evacuate? ”
"There's no flood?" The old man was a little disapproving, took out a dry tobacco, lit it and took a leisurely puff: "In the thirty-first year of Guangxu, there was a big terrible flood, and many people died, not only Luzhou, Yibin, and the entire southern Sichuan were flooded, but the flood only happened once in a hundred years, but how many years have passed, how can it come again?" ”
He pointed to the sky: "Do you think this looks like it's going to rain?" To tell you the truth, sir, I am afraid of a drought. ”
With that, he left happily.
"See, Heng Shuai." Ma Xiao looked helpless: "I don't have any way at all." ”
Wang Hengyue walked forward silently, and his subordinates followed behind without a sound.
When I approached the riverside, I saw a lot of children playing there.
Wang Hengyue came to a middle-aged woman sitting there with the soles of her shoes: "Sister-in-law, the flood is coming, why are you still here?" ”
"Hello sir!" The middle-aged woman saw that it was an official, and she didn't know how big an official it was, so she quickly got up and bowed, but said disapprehantly: "My man said that there will be no flood." That's not just what my men say, everyone says. also said that, that town guard makes the lord god, and he can't be as god as Prime Minister Zhuge anymore, right? Can this be calculated with a finger count? ”
Saying that, he sighed: "Besides, where can you really move?" Where do we have silver? ”
"Luzhou has prepared a place for you to settle down temporarily, and when the flood recedes, the political axe will subsidize you." Wang Hengyue said kindly.
"I don't believe there's such a good thing." The middle-aged woman smiled and said, "My lord, don't make a sound, how can you say that there is such a good government?" ”
As he spoke, he pointed at it, "Look, my man is back." ”
Wang Hengyue looked there, a middle-aged man strode over, and when he saw his father coming back, the four children greeted him happily. The youngest is only five or six years old.
Seeing so many soldiers in his own home, the middle-aged man was stunned: "Good adults." ”
"What's your name?"
"Back to adults, my name is Fan Pancai."
"Fan Pancai." Wang Hengyue read the somewhat awkward name and pointed to the children beside him: "These children are all yours?" ”
"Yes, yes, it's all mine."
Wang Hengyue nodded: "Give him ten oceans." ”
Huang Zixuan took out ten silver dollars that had just been issued and put them in Fan Pancai's hand.
Seeing Yuan Datou, Wang Hengyue suddenly thought inexplicably that the "Wang Datou" he cast had also been cast for a while, and he didn't know when it would be able to circulate in Sichuan.
Fan Pancai saw the ocean in his hand and was inexplicable.
"I don't want your child to die here." Wang Hengyue nodded at Fan Pancai's four children and said, "Go to Luzhou City immediately now, this is considered to be given to you by me in advance." ”
"Thank you, thank you, your lord!" Fan Pancai pulled his wife and children to kneel on the ground with a "plop", kowtowed a few times, stood up and said suspiciously: "My lord, is there really a flood?" ”
"Get out! Take your wife and children to Luzhou City! Wang Hengyue couldn't bear it anymore and roared loudly. Then he shouted to the people in the onlookers:
"If you want to live, fucking Lao Tzu will get out of Luzhou City! You don't fucking think about yourself, you have to think about your wife and children! ”
Seeing that Fan Pancai's family really got the ocean, these people thought, is this true?
Seeing the chaotic appearance of these people, Ma Xiao smiled bitterly and said: "Heng Shuai's intentions, they won't know until later." ”
"yes, they won't know until later." Wang Hengyue sighed and said, "But you can't blame the people for their ignorance, they really have no confidence in our previous political axe. If we don't get it for long in Luzhou, take your time, take your time, they will have confidence in us. ”
said, and said to Ma Xiao: "Ma San, this is handed over to you, you must minimize the loss, and I have to go to Yibin for a trip!" ”
"Yes!"
At this time, there were a few "booms", and a faint thunder came!
Wang Hengyue looked up at the sky, it's coming, the disaster is finally inevitable!
