Section 70 Disaster Relief

After the establishment of the Qiangguo and Fumin Society, Yang Chao finally had an organization in his hands that could be used. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It is stipulated that members must lead an organizational life, and they must have three days a month to discuss and study together, and exchange their thoughts, opinions, and ideas with each other.

At the same time, there are 30 initial members, each divided into four functional departments.

If an organization wants to survive, of course, it is inseparable from the material, the fund adopts the principle of voluntary donation, and it is an anonymous donation that cannot be compared, everything is in their hearts, and a public fundraising box has been set up, and if the members want to raise donations, they will put the money in the envelope and throw it in, so as to avoid poor members from having low self-esteem because they have no money to raise donations.

Moreover, he told Li Sidi that he could go out to raise donations from social elites, and there was no limit to how much, but the accounts must be clear, and the principle of voluntariness should also be adopted, and no interest exchange could be made, and promises could not be exchanged for money.

Those who raise donations for the Qiangguo and Fumin Society must agree with the concept of the Qiangguo and Fumin Society, not people who hope to get any benefits from the Qiangguo and Fumin Society.

If an organization wants to develop, it must continue to learn and progress, so that Pan Xun sent people to Shanghai to buy all kinds of modern knowledge books and establish a public library, where the brothers in the society can borrow books at any time, read them for free, and return them on time. These books cover science, art, philosophy, economics, culture, military, and much more.

If an organization wants to expand, it must spread its ideas and constantly attract people to join. Pai Wang Qiu led the people of the Propaganda Department into the construction site army, and secretly preached the concept and purpose of strengthening the country and enriching the people to those elite figures such as engineers and technicians.

If an organization wants to survive forever, it must be constantly metabolized, so that Wu Peifu can establish a file for each member, record their morality, evaluate them in the future, and fire those who do not meet the requirements. At the same time, the new members who apply for membership will be inspected, and those who pass will be allowed to join the company, and those who fail will be refused.

Wang Qiu's propaganda results are not very ideal, Zhan Tianyou, who has received Western education and Chinese morality, also agrees with his ideas, and does not dislike partisan politics in their hearts, but this is China, they have been back to China for more than 20 years, and they all know that it is not fun to play organizations in China, and if they don't get it right, they will lose their heads.

And for security reasons, Wang Qiu can only preach secretly, and he can't even expose the situation of the organization, no one knows that this is established by Yang Chao, otherwise Zhan Tianyou and these people may still think about it, but a little Xiucai suddenly came to tell them what the truth of strengthening the country and enriching the people, let them join a club, how to look at it and how unreliable, so they all refused.

Wang Qiu was very devastated, Yang Chao could only comfort him, telling him not to worry, an organization can develop and grow, it needs to be slowly accumulated, and it needs to be slowly proven in order to be accepted by others.

And told Wang Qiu, don't just focus on those elites, the Qiangguo Rejuvenation Society needs the support of all grassroots units, and those who come will not refuse, as long as they agree with the concept of the community and are willing to contribute to the strengthening of the country and the people, the community is willing to absorb and help them progress.

The people who volunteered to come to the construction site on the construction site, although they were illiterate in big characters, but they were also for the country and the people, although the contribution was different, but their hearts and feelings were the same.

Encourage Wang Qiu to develop the construction leaders on the construction site, and the small leaders of various villages to join the society. At the same time, let Wu Peifu organize these workers to learn literacy, so that everyone can progress.

Although it was slow, Yang Chao felt that a force began to roll and develop, although it would definitely encounter all kinds of setbacks, as long as it adhered to its own ideas, as long as his ideas were valuable, it would always progress.

In late June, the construction of the railway was suddenly greatly affected, because it was raining throughout Shandong, and the rain was pouring and raining.

Wu Peifu took the talents to hold various literacy classes on the construction site, encouraged the migrant workers to learn literacy, and hired a lot of old masters to help here, and purchased a lot of brushes for everyone to dip in water to practice calligraphy on the masonry.

Maybe it's freshness, maybe it's interest, maybe it's idle and boring, but there are thousands of migrant workers who are willing to follow the literacy.

Half a month passed in a flicker, and the rainy day still had no meaning of ending, Zhan Tianyou scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, and inspected everywhere.

Not only did they inspect the construction sites to see if the railway foundations had been washed away by heavy rains, but they also inspected the conditions at each construction site to see if the workers had fallen ill due to poor accommodation.

It was raining heavily until early July.

On this day, a fast horse suddenly broke into a construction site.

"Mr. Wu, it's not good, Kenli County is flooded. The president wants you to organize workers to go to the rescue and disaster relief immediately! ”

"The president said that if the workers are willing to rescue and relieve the disaster, they will be paid, and if something happens, they will be given a settlement allowance."

Wu Peifu was at a construction site in the middle of Qixia to Laiyang at this time, after the railway was repaired from Yantai to here, it began to rain, so he stayed here to organize everyone to study, this construction site stretched for ten miles, there were more than 20,000 workers.

Wu Peifu immediately took action and organized his subordinates to recruit workers in various lofts.

The same horse also galloped to a construction site between Weixian and Pingdu, and Wang Qiu immediately mobilized workers to rescue the disaster.

Yang Chao was wearing a coat, and the majestic rain fell from the hat one by one, and the hay-woven coat was already soaked, like a piece of armor, extremely heavy.

Under his feet is the land on the bank of the Yellow River, and most of his feet are buried in the mud, and the surface of his feet is covered with yellow mud.

Heavy rain fell from the sky, the Yellow River rose, flooding the lower reaches of Jinan Huimin, Lijin and other counties, located in the delta between the Yellow River and the Xiaoqing River The big stone house has accumulated more than two feet of water, but the stone house is completely closed, the water can not be poured in, it doesn't matter if the women and children hide in the room, the soldiers have long left the big stone house and followed Yang Chao to come to the disaster.

Hundreds of villages were submerged.

The place where Yang Chao is located is outside a village, and the village is seriously flooded, and groups of ordinary people are moving out of the village with the help of Yang Chao's soldiers, and they will move to a nearby village with a higher position.

It is very difficult for ordinary people to move, especially some elderly people, who are not willing to give up the bottles and cans at home, but if they do not move, the farmers' dilapidated houses will be soaked in water for a long time and may collapse at any time.

It is even more difficult to say that the nearby villages are accepted, because they are close to the river, because of the irrigation of canals, fishing and other problems, these nearby villages have not been less fighting, and it is difficult for ordinary people to accept that their neighbors, who usually look unpleasant, move into their homes.

Deservedly, a dirty Mongolian horse carrying a knight, splashed pieces of muddy water, and ran all the way to Yang Chao.

"Horse soaring? Are all the supplies in Jinan loaded? ”

Materials, Yang Chao needed a lot of materials, so he had already sent a telegram to Zhou Fu, and Zhou Fu promised to help raise them. Yang Chao also sent people to bring a large amount of cash, which he bought in the market at all costs, and what he bought, wood, grain, quilts, and even stones were needed.

"Your Excellency, it's been shipped. Lord Zhou asked, is there any leakage in the riverbank, find someone to plug the gap as soon as possible! ”

Zhou Fu is also very concerned about disaster relief, and he is also very experienced, he worked in the Yongding River 30 years ago.

But obviously Zhou Fu and Yang Chao's disaster relief concepts are different, Yang Chao is the priority to save people, and Zhou Fu is the priority to repair the river.

"Got it. Reassure Lord Zhou and tell him that there is me here in Lijin, and he doesn't have to worry. ”

At this time, Zhou Fu had already been involved in the Yellow River case, so the telegram could not be contacted, and he could only communicate with people.

Ma Tengfei answered, and hit the horse again.

In the afternoon, the people of the Qiangguo Fuxing Society rushed over with tens of thousands of migrant workers, who had been building railways together for more than half a year, so they all had a collective consciousness, and the discipline brought about by this collective consciousness was the reason why the workers were better organized into soldiers than the peasants.

Without military training, these migrant workers braved the rain to trek to the banks of the Yellow River.

Immediately let the members of the society assign workers, divided into half of them, in groups of 100 people, along the banks of the Yellow River, and mobilized and relocated when they saw the village, and the rest of the workers all went up to several hanging river banks to strengthen the dangerous river embankment under the command of the engineer.

When the supplies arrived, they were immediately distributed and the workers were asked to set up temporary shacks on the high ground.

Eating and living on the bank of the river, it lasted for seven days, and finally survived the heavy rain, and the temper of the Yellow River slowly subsided, and slowly poured into the sea with the yellow soup rolling upstream.

The danger was lifted, and no one died.

But the disaster relief is not over, the construction team still stayed in place, after three days of fine weather, began to turn to the reconstruction work, a large number of houses collapsed, from Jinan to purchase material resources continue to be transported, the workers are mainly to distribute materials, because the villages of this era, most of them are still one or several families living together, there is no shortage of manpower, there is no lack of organizational ability, after the distribution of materials, they will rebuild their own houses.

Of course, those who are lonely, widowed, or whose family laborers are not available, are rebuilt by the workers.

delayed the construction of the railway, and all of them were here for disaster relief, but Zhan Tianyou and other engineers felt that it was worth it.

Zhou Fu, the governor of Shandong, soon inspected and saw Yang Chao in the shack.

"Lord Zhou!"

Yang Chao was dressed in mud clothes, in a shack built, in which a large number of maps were placed, marked one by one, outlined with a red pen, villages in critical need of emergency assistance, those outlined with black pens have been repaired, and those outlined with yellow pens have losses, but they are not serious villages.

While looking at most of the villages marked by black pens, he listened to Yang Chao's explanation.

Zhou Fu nodded lightly, stood up for a long time, looked at Yang Chao, and smiled with satisfaction.

"Yang Chao, come with me to have a look."

Zhou Fu first went to a few river embankments, and after finding that there was indeed no danger, he followed Yang Chao to a few villages.

As soon as many people in the village heard that Yang Chao was coming, they rushed over one after another and kowtowed in thanks.

Seeing many old people, Yang Chao quickly helped him up, and the arms he helped along the way were sore.
