Chapter Forty-Eight: What Ansai Sees and Hears (I)
When he saw the prefect, Li Zuohang had just put on the shoes that his wife had mended for him and was walking out of the shack. The afternoon sun was still a little strong, and he squinted his eyes. Then he saw a large number of people walking towards him, the leader was dressed in a scarlet official uniform, wearing a black veil, wearing a jade belt around his waist, striding forward, with an extraordinary momentum, beside him were Li County Commander and Wu Dianshi, these two he knew, seeing that everyone was like stars holding the moon and surrounding the person in the middle, without thinking about it, he knew that this was a big official, at least much bigger than Li County Order. The people around him were already kneeling on the ground, and he hurriedly knelt down, buried his head on the ground, and pouted his ass high.
Zhang Bangyan traveled all the way, and the more he looked at it, the more shocked he became. He first went to see the official warehouse in Ansai County, where most of the harvested potatoes were sliced and dried and stored, with enough 80,000 stones, piled up like a mountain, and the roof of the warehouse was almost broken. Although he had been prepared, he was still stunned by the spectacular sight before him, and he ordered his entourage of guards to inspect all parts of the warehouse in order to verify whether there was any mercilessness. Li Xianling and Wu Wei looked calm, they knew best in their hearts that the 80,000 stone was only a lot more, and this was still the result of distributing a lot to the poor and displaced people in the county, which was also the confidence that they dared to ask Yan'an Mansion to be responsible for providing the entire Yan'an Mansion with the power of Ansai County. Just kidding, this is just a harvest of 10,000 acres of potatoes, even if you don't consider the expansion of the planting area in the second season, only 20,000 acres of fields can harvest potatoes and sweet potatoes in a year, which is equivalent to more than 30 thousand stones!
After a short time, the guards returned one after another, and the grain stored in the warehouse was not mixed with half of it, and it was all dried potatoes that had just been put into storage. When Zhang Bangyan heard this, he was excited, and he accused Li and Wu of a crime, and really praised them, and the two of them were humble.
Out of the grain depot, the prefect is in a very good mood, this is called having food in his hands, not panicking in his heart, after seeing this pile of grain with his own eyes, this trip is not worthwhile, and the rest of the things are much easier. With his own attempts at potato dishes and his own sighting of the granary full of potatoes at the banquet, it seems that Ansai's introduction of potatoes has a good harvest. Thinking of this, he looked forward even more to the water conservancy facilities he was about to see.
Out of the official warehouse, there is a spacious and beautiful four-person sedan chair at the door, this is the bus of this era, Zhang Bangyan was sitting in this sedan chair before. Li Chong followed in a low-key two-person sedan chair, Wu Wei did not want to sit in a sedan chair, but still rode his inferior horse, and the rest of the entourage waited, either on foot, or in a sedan chair, or in a mule carriage, and so on. Along the way, there is not half a beggar on the streets of the county, and the streets are very clean, unlike the garbage everywhere in the ordinary county. Zhang Bangyan is very strange, since the Apocalypse, northern Shaanxi has suffered disasters every year, and beggars have become a norm in Yan'an Mansion and even Xi'an Province. No, there is no such rule, even if the governor goes out on patrol, there is no reason to drive the beggars out of the city, but they are not allowed to beg on both sides of the road, so as not to disturb the view, and drive them to the corners of the alleys. Zhang Bangyan was full of suspicions, but it was inconvenient to ask. However, the mystery was soon solved.
In order to ensure the safety of the prefect, Li Chong sent more than 100 local soldiers from the county to defend along the way. Rao is like this, because he knows that there are nearly 50,000 people in the camp of disaster victims, Zhang Bangyan is slightly uneasy in his heart, so many disaster victims, it is great to make trouble. But now that you're here, how can you rest assured if you don't see it with your own eyes?
When he got to the place, he got out of the sedan chair and looked around, only to realize that his worries were completely unnecessary, the camp was very large, but it was well arranged, the ground was very tidy, there was no garbage and feces, and it was not at all as dirty and sloppy as ordinary gathering places for disaster victims. The victims were in good order, as if they were in the countryside. Seeing that many big officials were coming, everyone knelt on the ground one after another, saying that they would see the old man, and Zhang Bangyan hurriedly told everyone to get up. I saw that most of the victims in front of me were old and weak, and few were young and strong. It turned out that this was a method of cash-for-work discussed by Wu Wei and Li County Order, which gave the victims benefits, and asked them to pay for labor, and they could not raise them because they suffered from the disaster, which would only create a group of lazy people. Not only the homeless, but also the beggars in the city, were also dealt with in one piece, and rations were given to them to work so that they could support themselves. That's why you can't see half a beggar on Shicai Street. Even the old and weak do what they can, such as cleaning up the garbage, sewing and washing, delivering food and water to the young people who go to work, etc., although the whole camp is large, but there are few idlers.
Zhang Bangyan listened to the explanations of Li Chong and Wu Wei beside him while walking, and was very curious about Ansai's various methods, in fact, these methods are not difficult at all, but no one thinks of doing them on weekdays. Compared with Ansai, other counties are afraid of the victims of the disaster, treating them like thieves, and often take pleasure in forcing the displaced people to leave the country. Ansai, on the other hand, regarded the victims as valuable labor and organized them into various productive tasks. The two methods can be seen at a glance. Of course, this is also because there is sufficient food and water to ensure it, which is another unique feature of Ansai.
Zhang Bangyan also found that there was a well not far from the camp, and many victims were queuing up to get water. Although he is not close to farming, he also knows what it means to have a deep well in northern Shaanxi that can guarantee the output of water, and there are quite a lot of wells in this camp. After asking, I learned that this was made of drilling equipment, and this thing was also sold from overseas by Fujian maritime merchants, which was expensive, but the drilling efficiency was extremely high. Zhang Bangyan heard that this thing was also purchased by Wu Wei, and when he thought of all the previous events, he couldn't help but secretly sigh, this person is so rich! His heart moved, and he said to Wu Wei: "Wei Wen may buy more of this thing from that maritime merchant?" In terms of money, you can rest assured, and you will not let Weiwen suffer losses. He thought that if this thing was promoted, he would also be credited with it. Wu Wei said with a smile: "The adult asked, but it is ashamed of the humble position, since it is ordered by the adult, how can the humble position be excused, even if it is all repaid by the humble position, it should be." Zhang Bangyan was overjoyed, and said that Wu Wei had spent a lot of money on disaster relief, how could there be any reason to let his own family break the bank, and he could only buy this thing again It was a great achievement, and he didn't have to spend half a cent in his own pocket. Wu Wei responded with a smile.
It turned out that there were still many restrictions on drilling rigs before, such as fuel problems and the need to use pumps to take water, which were all modern products, and it was difficult to ensure long-term supply, and Wu Wei could not think about it for a while. Later, I discussed with netizens agricultural experts Qiuqiu, only to know that these have already been solved, the original early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China foreign economic blockade of China, the lack of domestic fuel, actually developed a lot of local methods, the use of wood as fuel engines in it, and until now this kind of thing is still very common in India, that is, in China, it is not difficult to transform it to build, and the general small factories can do it. Wu Wei couldn't help but be overjoyed, contacted the last order manufacturer, put forward a request, although the manufacturer felt strange, but this technology is not very difficult, Wu Wei is willing to pay a high price, how can there be a reason for business to be pushed out. It quickly made what Wu Wei wanted. The finished product is quite simple, and the heat conversion efficiency is low, but it is better because the technology is simple and the material is easy to obtain, otherwise it would not be so popular in today's poor areas. Wu Wei has seen the finished product, and the effect is quite satisfied, because of this, he agreed to what Zhang Bangyan said just now, and he would never dare to put it before.
