Chapter 110: Preparing for Winter

"Whew-whew-"

A cold wind blew, and the air was filled with coldness. And Chen Fei has also been in Shuo County for almost a month and a half, and it is now the end of November, and it will be the beginning of December in a few days. And now it is actually the beginning of winter, and the entire Central Plains has gradually entered winter. Shuoxian belongs to the later generation of Shanxi, so it is now winter, so everyone has started the cat winter. Even the office efficiency in the entire Shuoxian county government has begun to slow down, and it is obvious that it is beginning to be a little lazy in winter.

"Sister Wanrou, it's a little cold!" Li Lizhi hugged her body and said.

Princess Li Lizhi is also wearing the leather coat sent by Zhou Nad now, which is obviously a good warmth effect. And Chen Fei also began to put on winter clothes, obviously winter has arrived, of course you have to wear winter clothes, otherwise it will be really cold. Chen Fei also felt a little cold, because Chen Fei was a southerner in his previous life, and he served in the military in the south, so he had not been able to adapt to the cold in the north. Therefore, the cold of the winter in the north is something that Chen Fei is a little afraid of. However, he knew that he was in the county government, and the living conditions were still very good, so there should be no problem.

"Huh? What is this? Li Lizhen suddenly touched her forehead with her hand, obviously strange that something had fallen on her head.

"It's snowing! Sister Wanrou, it's snowing! "It's snowing! Sister Wanrou, it's snowing! "Sister Wanrou, let's go build a snowman!"

Li Lizhi pulled Li Wanrou and wanted to build a snowman in the courtyard of the county office. And now it's just starting to snow, and something like silver dust is falling from the sky, and these are snowflakes. Unlike Li Lizhen, who is concerned about being able to build a snowman in the snow, Chen Fei, the county magistrate, is about to start discussing measures for the winter in Shuo County.

"Zhang Mingde County, how are we in Shuo County now? Are you ready for the cold? Chen Fei asked.

Chen Fei knew that the conditions for wintering in ancient times were not as good as those in later generations. What kind of building can the people of the Hereafter be, heating. What a set of cotton clothes and quilts, to ensure that there are no problems in winter. In ancient times, the houses of the peasant households in ancient times were all thatched houses, and the people did not have any heating, let alone any equipment for winter. As for the ordinary people, the winter is very cold, they have no cotton clothes and quilts, let alone leather clothes and other warm clothes, they can only hide at home and find a way to support this winter.

Even, in ancient times, people often froze to death, which was not news in ancient times. Although he was frozen to death in later generations, it was super big news. But in ancient times, it was a common thing to freeze to death, and everyone can't be negligent. Therefore, the work in winter is not at all easier than in the busy farming period in spring.

"Chen County Order, we now have more than 3,000 households in Shuo County, and we have begun to prepare to notify them to strengthen their houses at any time, and then avoid heavy snow from collapsing these houses." Zhang Mingde said.

However, Chen Fei said: "I propose a small-scale conscription. Fifty men were conscripted. Form a winter duty rescue team. Winter is a time of slack farming, and the conscription of fifty people should not be resented by too many people. Moreover, in winter, the rescue team is ready to deal with the collapse of houses and various snow hazards. If a house collapses, then we, the rescue team, must rush to it as soon as possible. Strive to save people's lives, throne and property. And we can put them in charge of some disaster relief so that the people won't be too disgusted! ”

The so-called conscription is a policy in which the ancient government can serve the government for free. For example, what government builds bridges and paves roads. Whatever construction is done, it must be done by conscripting the common people. And the people were very disgusted with forced labor, because too much forced labor would affect the people's agricultural cultivation. In addition, they have to bear their own meals during the conscription. This is even more disgusting.

However, Chen Fei's proposal to levy 50 people into conscription and let them form a disaster relief and rescue team, so that more people can avoid the loss of life and property, which should be understandable to everyone. As long as the explanation is clear, the people should not object to this matter of servitude.

"Next, we began to deliberate. We take turns for twelve hours in the winter, taking turns to be on duty. All of our scribes were to be divided into four shifts, and they would take turns to follow the four of us on duty. I, Zhang Mingde County Cheng, Sun Jiadong Master Bookkeeper, and Equation West County Lieutenant, are divided into four shifts every day, each shift is three hours, and they are on duty in our county government with different scribes. As long as there is any situation, it must be dealt with as soon as possible. We make sure that there are people on duty for 12 hours, and no crisis can be missed. ”

"I am here to announce that the minimum goal of our winter in Shuo County this time is not to be able to freeze to death. If one person freezes to death, then I will take the blame and resign. However, I won't make it easy for you until I resign, you know? ”

Listening to Chen Fei's last words, he roared, obviously everyone knew that Chen Fei was not joking. Everyone also began to admire Chen Fei a little, because Chen Fei actually said that if a person froze to death, then he would take the blame and resign. In this day and age, it is common for people to freeze to death in winter. Freezing people to death in the jurisdiction would not be a big crime for ancient officials, at most it would be a two-sentence petition from the superiors. But Chen Fei actually made a public guarantee here that if a person froze to death in the upper part of the jurisdiction, then he took the initiative to take the blame and resign. This is ruthless enough, but this one also moved these three guys a lot. These three people are all locals, Chen Fei, a foreigner, can do this, what else can they, local officials, say?

"Since the county order is like this, I, Zhang Mingde, will also follow, if one person freezes to death, I will also follow the Chen county order to take the blame and resign!" Zhang Mingde, the county leader, also made a guarantee.

And the chief bookkeeper Sun Jiadong and the county lieutenant Equation Xi, when they heard this, they also had to follow the guarantee. After all, the county magistrates and county officials have also promised so, so if they don't follow, isn't it "self-isolation from the people"? If they wither, what do you want the scribes and the people to think of them? So in order to maintain their image, they can only follow.

"Well, if there is no pressure, there is no motivation, since we have all issued such cruel words, then of course we must work together! This winter, I don't have high requirements, as long as we don't freeze to death, then our mission will be completed. Chen Fei said.
