Chapter 300: Man is the Root
Although the sky was bright, the sky was still cloudy, and the black pressure was as if it was next to the overhead, although there was not a trace of wind, but it was clear that a heavy rain was brewing.
Fortunately, the autumn harvest was not in time, otherwise the loss would have been great.
Steward Zou and Aunt Lu have already taken their subordinates to inspect all the houses, and Sister-in-law Li and Sister-in-law Zhang have already begun to make morning meals.
There are almost no problems in the house, only a few wings have slight cracks in the walls, but they are all easy to move into.
It's just that a few cellars have partially collapsed, but fortunately everything inside has been taken out without causing major damage.
The subordinates began to be busy putting things away, and everyone washed up briefly and used the morning food.
Yun was worried about handing over her two sons to Xue'er to watch, and she personally took them to handle family affairs together.
Dong Changhe also came back, and seeing that the loss of his family and workshop was not big, he sent his servants to find Master Cai to repair the damaged places, and then went to the county government with Xuanyuan Mo to help.
Xue'er didn't sleep all night, so she lay down to catch up on her sleep after eating.
In the middle of the morning, Cher was woken up by the rumbling thunder, and the pouring rain fell overwhelmingly, moistening the land that had been dry for a long time.
Although the ground movement seems to be not light this time, because of the early preparations, there are no deaths, only some minor abrasions, all of which were frightened and fell down when the ground moved, and accidentally bruised.
So the overall loss is not large.
It rained for a day and a night, and it was already the third day when the sky cleared again.
Cher couldn't help much with things outside, so she had to help deal with the hot spring mountain resort and winery.
The other property in the county marquis mansion is also fine, and the craftsmen sent by Xuanyuan Che all live in the Dong Mansion over there, and they are all fine because they have prepared in advance.
Both lodges are building basic facilities, so the damage is not significant.
It's just that because the winery was built in the middle of the mountain, a few places were smashed by collapsed rocks, and everyone couldn't take care of it, so they were all sent by Xue'er to Village Chief Gu to help rebuild the house.
One-third of the houses in Dongjia Village have collapsed, and these have to be rebuilt, and the remaining one-third is also partially damaged, and it can be used for repairs.
These Xue'er were sent to Village Chief Gu's craftsmen to help repair those that could be used first.
As for the rebuilding of the house, the village chief Gu wants to rearrange it, and it is just right to replan it in this ground movement.
After taking care of these things, Cher took her two younger brothers to study at home all day.
Dong Changhe and Xuanyuan Mo haven't been home for a few days, and the things after the earthquake are enough for them to be busy for a while.
What she didn't know was that Xuanyuan Mo revealed his identity in the county government, took the lead in donating some silver to help with disaster relief, and took the lead in visiting the disaster relief site.
Seeing this, Dong Changhe also donated 10,000 taels, so the local squires donated their own donations, and soon Changhai County began post-disaster reconstruction.
The epicenter of the earthquake was in Changhai County, so the surrounding cities were not seriously affected, and when the casualties and losses were finally counted after the disaster, Xuanyuan Mo was very happy, although the ground movement was heavy, but no one died.
All that was lost was some houses and some of the property.
The loss of these external objects is nothing at all, people are fundamental, and if they lose their property, they can still earn it back, and if they are gone, they will have nothing.
Because Xuanyuan Mo and a few people commanded properly, there was no large-scale plague, and only a few people got the wind chill, or because of the sudden heavy rain the next day.
Fortunately, there were prepared medicinal materials, as well as those precautions after the disaster, and the condition of those patients was quickly controlled.
After being busy in the county government for half a month, Xuanyuan Mo and Dong Changhe returned to the county mansion.
Xuanyuan Mo's internal injuries were also healed, and he came to see Xue'er as soon as he came back.
At that time, Xue'er was studying in the study with her two younger brothers.
The two sat down in the attic again, and Qiao'er poured tea for the two and retreated to the side.
Xuanyuan Mo lost a lot of weight, and the work of this half month gave him a new understanding of the lives of the people.
Xue'er once said in front of him that no businessman is not rich, because of this incident, he made up his mind to be the biggest businessman in the Daxi Dynasty.
The Daxi Dynasty was not founded for a long time, and all he saw was a good side, and he always felt that the people were still living well.
When he really went into the people, he found that he took it for granted.
The people only have food and clothing, and they are still far from being rich.
Although the status of businessmen is much higher than in history, there are very few people who are really willing to do business, and everyone is devoted to their careers.
He can be a leader, and when he makes results, he can also play a leading role.
Xue'er said that it has an upward and downward effect, and he, the prince, is still useful.
"Little sister-in-law, you are really amazing, this time because you reminded early, no people died due to ground movements, and there was no major epidemic.
Feng Xianling said that if he hadn't predicted in advance, he would have turned over just in time for the people to rest at night, and if that happened, the casualties would be very serious.
It is said that saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, and the little sister-in-law will definitely have a blessing. ”
Xuanyuan Mo was in good spirits, and his eyebrows fluttered and praised Xue'er.
"Well, I know you've done your best, otherwise you wouldn't have lost a lot of weight." Xue'er didn't expect Xuanyuan Mo to really take the lead to help those people, and she really admired this pampered prince.
"Qiao'er, tell Sister-in-law Zhang to make some nourishing soup for His Royal Highness, and give him a good tonic during this time, otherwise if His Royal Highness the King of Youwang knows, he will definitely blame me!" Xue'er instructed Qiao'er on the side.
"Who said I would blame Cher?" A long-lost voice came from under the eaves.
A few people raised their eyes and saw two people walking around the corner of the eaves, Xuanyuan Che who was walking in front of him just now, followed by a smiling jade inkstone, and he was holding Xiaobai who was eager to try in his arms.
Xue'er and Xuanyuan Mo hurriedly stood up, and everyone greeted him: "I've seen His Royal Highness King You/Third Brother." ”
"Excuse me, why haven't you two been so angry for a few months?" Xuanyuan Che's eyes always fell on Xue'er's body, and he didn't miss the slightest expression on Xue'er's face.
To be honest, Xue'er didn't expect Xuanyuan Che to appear here, she turned her head to look at Mo Shijiu, who shrugged, looking like I hadn't gotten any news.
She felt her heart pounding, her face turned a little red, and she didn't even dare to look at Xuanyuan Che's fiery eyes.
Xuanyuan Mo was also a little surprised, or he thought that maybe the imperial brother would come, but he didn't expect his imperial brother to come so quickly!
"Third brother, why are you here?"
"How could I not come and see something so big?" Xuanyuan Che asked with a smile.
