Chapter Twenty-Nine: Rebuilding Dunhuafang
The heavy rain in June finally stopped, and the dark clouds that pressed on the heads of the people of Chang'an for three days also disappeared, and the fierce sun once again shone on the earth, after all, it was June, and no matter how heavy the wind and rain, it could not block the brilliance of the bright sun. The damp puddles on the cement road were all steamed clean after a while, the green leaves were still covered with water droplets, and the fresh smell of a piece of earth in the air, if it wasn't for the earthquake, plus the water washed Qinglongfang and Dunhuafang, this would have been the most wonderful summer after the rain.
Teng Jianhu's fat body at this time jumped between the messy Qinglongfang and Dunhuafang, chatting with the residents who washed down the houses with his self-righteous smile from time to time, what he didn't know was that if it weren't for his official uniform, people would have gone up to beat him up a long time ago, and the homeless people didn't have the heart to chat.
Xu Yang dragged his tired body to Dunhuafang, when the earthquake happened, he and Jin Shengman were in the yard to enjoy the flowers, and heard the Tibetan mastiff raised at home not far from the house kept barking, and then as if hearing some order, the animals in Xujiazhuang were all crazy, the horses neighed, the mice scurried, when Xu Yangjiu screamed badly, pulled Jin Shengman away from the corner, and took her to the yard of a vacant lot, and told her not to move, then went crazy and called his relatives like Zhuangzi.
For the requirements of the county lord, the subordinates of Xujiazhuang were all unconditionally supported, without saying a word, they joined the ranks of helping the lord find someone, and soon held Liu Mengli, Liu Dongliang, Cai, and the elderly old lady Liu were all summoned to the courtyard, and seeing that the family was fine, Xu Yang seemed to have a soul again. Unconsciously. He has come to regard these people as his only relatives.
This time the earthquake was not big. The all-cement building of Xujiazhuang has not been affected at all, but the bricks and tiles have fallen some, and it is not a big deal, looking at the family members standing in the yard trembling a little, even if Xu Yang is afraid at this time, he knows that he can't show the slightest fear at this time, because at this moment he is the backbone and pillar of this family.
"There was an earthquake in Chang'an. It seems that the magnitude of the earthquake is not big, but I don't know if there are any aftershocks, Liu Qi, Liu Ba, and Zhang Er, you take two teams of people to set up tents and spend the night outside tonight. Xu Yang's order was very decisive, and it also gave the people in the village supreme courage, I don't know when Xu Yang's words were like a holy decree. All you need is unconditional compliance.
looked at Jin Shengman, who had a big belly and a pale face. Xu Yang couldn't stop feeling pity, went up to hold her hand, and comforted her softly, which made her face a little bloody.
Liu Mengli doesn't need to say much, the old husband and wife, you can see the other party's concern with one look, clasping her hands tightly, although there is no word, it is worth a thousand words.
The continuous earthquake finally passed, set up the tent, the family had a dinner together in the tent, but there was also a different taste, that night, three earthquakes in a row, fortunately there were preparations, the tent was very firm, did not fall, but the animals in the village were shouting again, provoking the family could not sleep. On the second day, there were two more aftershocks in Chang'an, one of which was the largest at noon, and even Xujiazhuang had an old house in disrepair that collapsed.
But fortunately, at this time, Xu Yang had already entered the palace to meet Li Er, and told the world not to sleep in a brick house, but to go outside if he wanted to sleep, so there was no casualty in the entire Chang'an.
If only an earthquake would not make Xu Yang so tired, the most uncomfortable thing is the rainstorm that followed the three days immediately after the earthquake, the obscene rain is endless, sometimes big and sometimes small, but the rainfall has been very sufficient, the Guanzhong area is not good, if it rains, it will never be like the rainstorm in the north when it comes and goes, and it will not last for a month like the continuous light rain in the south, it is a kind of rain between the two, and the ruthlessness of the northern rain, and the cotton softness of the southern rain, plus it is a heavy rain that has not been encountered in a century, Therefore, it caused the tragic incident of the embankment bursting in Qujiang Pond.
Dunhuafang is full of poor homeless people, looking for their possessions in the mess, their eyes numb and glazed, wandering among the ruins.
Xu Yang passed by them, and he could see their desolate expressions, the people since ancient times were like this, even if this kind of natural and man-made disaster occurred 1,400 years later, it was still them who took the responsibility, and the expressions on their faces did not change much.
"Lord Xu!" With a shout in the distance, Xu Yang raised his head tiredly, and a big fat man came into view, who was it not Teng Jianhu.
A green-robed official uniform, like a big grasshopper, and his bloated face is like a piece of dough that falls on the desk, this guy is getting fatter and fatter the more he eats, and he has no body at all, Xu Yang feels that at his fat speed, sooner or later that green robe will explode by him.
"Master Xu, I can be regarded as finding you." Teng Jianhu jumped up, and his appearance showed a flexibility that did not match his body type at all, but it made Xu Yang feel like he had seen a ghost.
After calming down for a moment, Xu Yang shrugged his shoulders, "Your Majesty said, I have sent an official from the household department to Dunhuafang to meet me, don't tell me that you are the household official." ”
Teng Jianhu's whole body was shaking, as if the four words of the household official made him feel comfortable up and down, this trembling, taking advantage of the green silk official uniform, the fat on his whole body was like waves, "It's me~" He didn't know how much Xu Yang wanted to strangle him when he said this.
Covering his face with one hand, he sighed, Xu Yang no longer had any hope for the court, Li Er could even send this kind of person, and there was really no one available.
Teng Jianhu didn't see Xu Yang's dissatisfaction at all, and still said excitedly: "Your Majesty said that there are fewer officials in the household department, except for Fang Xiang, only I can be considered to speak, so this time you will send me to ......"
Before he could finish speaking, Xu Yang covered his mouth, "Stop, I don't want to know why His Majesty sent you, at the moment, it is the right thing to organize these homeless homeless people." ”
Letting go of his hand, Teng Jianhu really still chattered and said: "What Xu Junye said is really right, Xia Guan just chatted with these homeless people and asked them about the lost materials in their homes one by one......"
Xu Yang was originally very disappointed with Teng Jianhu's IQ, but now it seems that he doesn't even have to have any hope for emotional intelligence, revealing people's scars in front of others is really cutting off people's financial paths, like killing parents, revealing people's scars, like stupid pigs and fools.
"Your Majesty explained how much money was allocated to these homeless poor people this time?" Xu Yang thought for a moment before thinking of the key question, and hurriedly asked.
"What? And silver? Teng Jianhu's eyes widened, as if he had heard the new word silver for the first time.
Xu Yang's expression was also very vivid, he originally planned to do a good deed and help these displaced people build some houses built with cement, so as to prevent Qujiangchi from breaking through their houses again and leaving them homeless, so he took the initiative to ask for help to prevent those household officials from building a pile of tofu scum projects and houses that would collapse as soon as the water washed away. But didn't you say that you were going to pay out of your own pocket to build houses for these residents?! Could it be that Li Er is planning to fall to the ground? Let yourself help these displaced people build houses for free?
"Oh~ I remembered." Teng Jianhu nodded and said seriously: "Your Majesty didn't mention the silver, just said that the brick and stone cement you need are directly provided by the brick factory and the cement factory, and there is no need to give money or go through the household audit." ”
"I'll rub it." Xu Yang cursed at this time, when he came to Datang, there are always some politicians who are constantly refreshing their bottom line, among which Comrade Li Er has been insisting on implementing the record of refreshing the bottom line, until now, Xu Yang found that this person has no fucking bottom line, and even takes the advantage of the courtiers so seriously, so naturally. His mother is worthy of Li Er, who in this world does not know that more than 90% of the shares of the brick burning yard and cement factory are Xujiazhuang's, I wipe ...... (To be continued......)
