296. Disaster relief
News is like the wind, in the age of the Internet, and in the age of a group of people living next to each other.
A group of teenage children, each with a few copper coins, happily knocked on doors along the long street. The immature children's voice shouted loudly like singing: "Brother Xu has an order, they all go to Tang Xing for disaster relief!" Don't forget to bring rations and bedding! ”
Doors and windows opened one by one, and someone tried to catch them and ask for clarification. The children, like loaches, writhed and fled, continuing to spread the word throughout the town of Juri.
Lu Dayou has just come out of Lu Fuzi's house. He relied on the recommendation of Master Lu to follow Xu Yuanzuo, and he has a kinship, which is deeper than others. Every year during the Chinese New Year, he has to personally come to the door to pay New Year's greetings, and he does not dare to ignore the three festivals. Hearing the nursery rhyme from afar, his first thought was: This can't be a prank, right?
In the end, Xu Yuanzuo is not the emperor, and if he falsely passed on his password, he would not be caught and killed. However, the appeal of Brother Yuan Zuo of the Xu family is unrivaled in Zhuli, as long as anyone has children working in Renshoutang or other Xu industries, this family will definitely be the followers of the elder brother of the Xu family.
Without him, the elder brother of the Xu family is too generous. The salary is high, the trick is explained thoroughly, and there is a high bonus at the end of the year. Two years earlier, there were only a handful of people in Zhuli who could buy all-meat noodles during the Chinese New Year, and now as long as there are children following Xu Yuanzuo, it is not a problem to eat all-meat noodles for three days.
During the Chinese New Year this year, many outsiders brought pigs, sheep, chickens and ducks to Zhuli to sell, and everyone knew that Zhuli people were rich and rich.
Lu Dayou quickened his pace, and suddenly saw a familiar figure walking out of the house, standing on the street and looking around.
It's Jiang Baili.
"Old Jiang," Lu Dayou learned Xu Yuanzuo's name, "what do you see!" ”
"Xiao Lu, why don't you hurry up and go back and pack your things." Jiang Baili replied.
"Really? Why didn't Zuo Ge'er send an acquaintance over to deliver the message? "Lu Dayou spends the most time in the office. The people below regard him as the great butler cultivated by Xu Yuanzuo. There is no chance to get ahead, only to build trust over the years. In this way, a person is not threatening, and his advantages are not comparable to others, so popularity is often not bad.
Jiang Baili took two breaths of cold air and said, "I don't know if it's true or not, but these boys really dare to play with fire." If you turn back, you will inevitably be killed. ”
Isn't that obvious? Who listens to the mentality of "I'd rather believe what I have than what I don't"? If you run to Tang Xing for more than ten or twenty miles in winter, you will find that you have been deceived, and you have to kill these little rabbits when you come back.
Thinking of that situation, Lu Dayou couldn't help but laugh.
"Let's go." Jiang Baili said: "Even if this thing is fake, you have to go." Running for nothing is just a little tired, and not running is a bad attitude. ”
Lu Da nodded a little, feeling that it made sense. He said goodbye to Jiang Baili and just took a few steps. Feeling a little wrong, he turned his head and asked, "What about you?" ”
Jiang Baili took a moment: "What's the use of me going over alone?" Wait for the brothers to come together and go. ”
Lu Dayou was so angry that he smoked: "Okay, you old ginger, if I don't ask, you're going to see if I can laugh or not?" ”
Jiang Baili laughed: "Arrange it quickly, how can you not ask with your mind!" ”
Lu Dayou was stunned, reacted, and shouted loudly: "I can think of it without asking." ”
Jiang Baili waved his hand disapprovingly, signaling him to go quickly. Several young men from the customer service department have already appeared on the street. I don't know how many layers of clothes are put on top and bottom of my body, and I am carrying a package on my back. At a glance, it can be seen that he responded to the call to go to Tangxing for disaster relief.
Under the false rumors, the rumors of the disaster in Tang Xing spread.
Lu Dayou ran home quickly and saw that there were already people waiting at the door. He secretly said in his heart: These rabbit cubs are very stammering!
Many people are not satisfied with sitting in the center and writing and calculating all day long, as if they are making wedding dresses for others. Only when they are older and their life experience goes up a little more can they know the reason why Beijing officials are more popular than foreign officials.
Lu Dayou has Lu Fuzi to open a small stove. Knowing his position and prospects, he is not in a hurry to make any achievements, and he is more concerned about not causing any moths. Not making mistakes is the best state for him.
Lu Da nodded a little, minus the account room mixed in. There are still a few slower ones. Thinking about Tang Xing, it is only ten miles away from Zhuli, and if he is too far behind, he will not be concerned. He said, "Don't wait, let's go first." After saying this, two more people came, so twenty or thirty people walked towards Tang.
Along the way, I didn't forget to borrow a carriage to put my luggage. Because no one knows when they will go home, since they have brought a bed, they must have to spend the night.
"Mule cart! I need a mule cart! A tael of silver back and forth! "Someone came out with a mule cart and shouted loudly.
The young man next to Lu Dayou scolded loudly: "Why don't you go and rob the road!" ”
The man smiled: "How can you make a lot of money by robbing the Dao?" Do you want a mule cart? The first one to rush to Tang Xing must be reused by Brother Zuo of the Xu family! "I have to say that this person is self-taught, well versed in the relationship between supply and demand, and can attack the heart.
Lu Dayou was thinking about the thirty-two years of final bonuses he got this year, and he still felt a little painful about the high price of one or two pieces of silver.
"Let's go!" Jiang Baili came out again, and before he could finish speaking, he beckoned the brothers to throw the package on the car. He said: "I'm out of the silver, everyone travel lightly and quickly, don't ask my brother to wait for a long time!" ”
The man accepted Jiang Baili's silver, but still refused to let Lu Dayou's people put their luggage: "No matter how cheap the mule is, it's a life!" How can you pull so many things? ”
Lu Dayou glanced at Jiang Baili, and felt the ardent expectations of the brothers around him, so he had to take out the silver and base one word from between his teeth: "Give!" ”
The mule suddenly became so cheap that it could not even count "a life", roared angrily, and stepped to pull the cart.
The two teams converged into a group, followed by mule carts and horse-drawn carts. There were a lot of sporadic people who caught up with the team, and halfway through the journey, a team of hundreds of people gathered.
Because of the closed nature of the region, Xu Yuanzuo's affairs are basically handled by Zhu Li's children, and technical work such as accounts and law is basically Tang Xing's children. In an era when great importance is attached to the friendship of the hometown, there are unintentional constraints and checks and balances. This is where internal competition begins, and everyone wants to perform better.
Lu Dayou walked out of breath and asked Jiang Baili: "How could Tang Xing suffer a disaster?" ”
"What disaster can Tang Xing suffer?" Jiang Baili asked rhetorically: "Floods, fires, and misfortunes can't be turned." ”
The water system in the south of the Yangtze River is well developed. Groundwater is more developed. If you dig anywhere, there will be water, and the fire will always be extinguished at the beginning. And the water from many lakes, as calm as a boudoir daughter, how can it be violent?
"Then this time......" Lu Dayou reacted: "Is it because of disasters elsewhere?" ”
Jiang Baili pursed his lips, looking at his face in the same issue. Fang Cai said: "You should also read more "Quyuan Miscellaneous Tan" on weekdays. Last year's Xuhuai flood was published in the newspaper. ”
Lu Dayou patted his head: "I've seen it, but I forgot it!" ”
- What is the difference between seeing and forgetting, and not seeing it? No wonder I can only serve tea and pour water in the office according to the charter.
Of course, Jiang Baili would not say what was in his heart. What's more, he also knew that "serving tea and pouring water" was actually very important, which really annoyed Lu Dayou, and he was not so comfortable at work. If you can't even get pen and ink one day, it will be a real tragedy.
Lu Dayou was vaguely aware of what Jiang Baili was thinking, but he was not as smart as Gu Shuisheng and Jiang Baili. At first, I didn't want to admit it, but after a long time. Gradually, it can be seen. Because Zuo Ge'er is a person who likes to "speed up the horse", if he assigns more and more work to someone and puts more and more burdens on him, it means that this person is quite capable and worthy of cultivation. Of course, it can also be seen from the weight of the year-end bonus.
Gu Shuisheng is now concentrating on market development, and he has already mixed in Suzhou. Jiang Baili's customer service work is becoming more and more refined, intertwining a big net. It can even connect the famous families in the county.
- This guy also boasted that he only needed to pass through a maximum of three people. You can eat with any big man in Huating County.
Lu Dayou remembered Jiang Baili's inadvertent snort, and his heart was pantothenic.
"Who is that?" Jiang Baili said suddenly.
On the open field, the two teams of men and horses walked in unison, running quickly towards the main road.
Lu Dayou was in charge of logistics and general affairs, but he had seen the man in the lead, so he pretended to be casual and said: "That's the nursing home of Xia Wei Xu Garden." The leader is called Gan Chengze. ”
Gan Chengze obviously also saw the people on the official road, and when he ran closer, he recognized Lu Dayou and shouted, "Are you going to Tang Xing?" ”
"Exactly, so do you?" Lu Dayou replied.
Gan Chengze answered. The feet did not stop, and said: "Brother Zuo'er has an order, you have to hurry over, don't say more!" With that, the Zhejiang soldiers in two columns ran past everyone, leaving behind half-height dust.
After Xu Yuanzuo ate the Heiju people, the Zhejiang soldiers all received a lot of silver, and basically bought land between Zhuli and Tang Xing. Relatively compact stay. Although there is not much land, they do not rely on the land for food, and the key is to be convenient to connect in series. Compared with Qi Jiguang, who needs to reach out to others, Xu Yuanzuo is a real big benefactor, and he is very happy to give money and food, and there has been no refusal to listen to the Zhejiang soldiers.
This time, I heard that there was another allowance per person per day, and these Zhejiang soldiers ran fast, and they couldn't wait to appear in front of Xu Yuanzuo immediately.
"Let's keep up!" Jiang Baili shouted and followed the Zhejiang soldiers to Tang Xing.
Lu Dayou was still hesitating, and Jiang Baili had already run out.
By the time Lu Dayou finally decided to run along, Jiang Baili had already stopped.
This teenager, who has never exercised much, has been in and out of wealthy families in the past few months, pampered and pampered, and he can't run at all.
Lu Dayou looked down at Jiang Baili, who was holding his knees with his hands and bowing like shrimps, and said with a smile: "I should tell Brother Zuo'er, the guys and shopkeepers who are registered in the future have to practice, so as not to be useless." ”
Jiang Baili's saliva couldn't stop pouring out, his lungs were like fire, he rolled his eyes, and ignored it.
Seeing Gan Chengze and the others running away, the team continued to move forward.
Tang Xing is in front.
After more than half an hour, Lu Dayou and Jiang Baili finally arrived outside the gate of Tanghang Town. Seven or eight pine stakes had been erected close to the gate, and someone was setting up a ladder to lay felt. Next to the unfinished porridge shed, there are several long wooden tables piled up, like those used by monks in the temple to eat.
Lu Dayou and Jiang Baili entered the city, and the pedestrians on the street were in a hurry, not anxious and restless, but as if they had caught up with an auspicious event, with joy.
The tragic atmosphere of saving people from fire and water brewing in the team was suddenly blown away.
Jiang Baili grabbed a passing colleague who had been his subordinate and asked, "What about Zuo Ge'er?" ”
The man hurriedly greeted and raised the sign in his hand: "Zuo Ge'er has an inn for disaster relief." Go straight over there. ”
Jiang Baili swept the sign, and it really read: Volunteers, please move to Youjia Inn and deploy them in a unified manner.
When the man had finished speaking, he bowed and walked away.
This is Xu's style, which sometimes makes people feel very rude, but the work efficiency is significantly higher than others.
Lu Dayou didn't be polite to Jiang Baili this time, and quickly ran towards Youjia Inn.
Life is boiling in the inn, there are busy people of their own, and there are outsiders who join in the fun. In any case, there is finally a tense atmosphere of disaster relief.
Xu Yuanzuo has requisitioned two large wooden boards, covered with rice paper, and the order and amount of pledges are written on each family. At this moment, he was talking to someone, and when he saw Lu Dayou, he immediately stopped, turned to Lu Dayou and shouted, "Dayou, it's just right." Quickly take someone to register the number of people who have been affected, and separate them according to men and women. ”
"Brother Zuo, what else do you need to know besides name, age, and place of origin?" Lu Dayou hurriedly asked.
"Vocational skills, family situation." Xu Yuanzuo thought for a while, and then said: "Ask them again: If there is land to grow elsewhere and they can eat enough, are they willing to migrate over." Whoever is willing, make a mark. ”
Lu Dayou hurriedly agreed, turned around and walked out, almost bumping into Jiang Baili who was chasing in.
Xu Yuanzuo saw that the two major generals were coming one after another, and he felt a little strong, and said in a loud voice: "Old Jiang, take people and go door to door to buy hot water." ”
"Yes!" Jiang Baili was about to leave.
"Slow," Xu Yuanzuo hurriedly stopped him, "This hot water is not only for people to drink, but also for them to freshen up." ”
"Freshen up?" Jiang Baili was stunned.
"Well, don't get dirty and upset to look at." Xu Yuanzuo said.
- Brother Zuo just loves to be clean! But let's take a look at the situation, now people are fleeing!
Jiang Baili sighed in his heart.
If it is according to Xu Yuanzuo's original intention, why not boil some hot water for people to freshen up? It's almost like shaving your hair and rushing it all into the bathroom to steam it. Otherwise, these victims are natural carriers of fleas and bed bugs, and when the weather warms up, the epidemic will break out.
If you want to talk about the research and development of penicillin, Xu Yuanzuo thinks he has no ability. However, to launch a patriotic health campaign, this is a familiar thing for Xu Yuanzuo, who grew up under the red flag. And as long as the hygienic conditions are improved, washing hands and bathing frequently, and consciously killing parasites, many diseases and epidemics can be avoided.
