Chapter Seventy-Eight: Resettlement of Villagers

Late at night, the courtyard of the Jiang family.

Jiang Jingyun stood under the eaves and looked at the heavy rain outside, frowning slightly.

Behind him, Jiang Yuntang rubbed his hands coldly, but he still leaned over and stood beside her and asked, "Sister, are you still not at ease?" Aren't all those villagers settled? ”

Jiang Jingyun sighed slightly, looked at the rain outside and explained: "Look at the day outside, the rain has been falling for several days and it doesn't stop, I estimate that if it continues like this, the situation may be more serious." ”

"What do you mean? Was the mudslide just the beginning? Jiang Yuntang also began to worry when he heard this.

After all, he also knew the situation here, and what Jiang Jingyun said was not impossible.

I heard the old people say that it has only been many years since the last flood in Yunzhou, and the casualties at that time can be described as extremely tragic.

It's just that this situation depends on luck, and if they want to prevent it in advance, I'm afraid it won't work.

Thinking of him, he sighed slightly, and also started to worry.

"No, in order not to repeat the catastrophe, we must act in advance and prepare for prevention." Jiang Jingyun finally made up her mind.

Hearing this, Jiang Yuntang looked at her and asked, "How to prevent it?" ”

This flash flood will not give people early warning, and it can happen whenever you want, and it can happen at any time.

"Inform the villagers in advance and move the big guy to a higher place." Jiang Jingyun said to Jiang Yuntang.

It was the best she knew.

Jiang Yuntang pondered for a moment when he heard this, and finally nodded: "What you said is also right. ”

"And when are we going to do it?" Jiang Yuntang looked at her and asked.

Jiang Jingyun said directly: "As soon as possible, this rain has been falling for so many days, and I feel that we are running out of time." ”

"Hmm." Jiang Yuntang nodded in response.

Then he turned around and went back to the house to get the rain hat and prepared to go out.

Jiang Jingyun was a little stunned when she saw this: "Are you going to go now?" ”

"Of course, didn't you say as soon as possible?" Jiang Yuntang said: "I'll go to the village chief and discuss with him, if we can persuade him to cooperate with us, we will transfer the villagers faster." ”

"Okay." Jiang Jingyun nodded: "Then second brother, I'll go with you." ”

Saying that, she also went to wear a rain hat, but Jiang Yuntang was a little hesitant: "If you don't go out in this weather, I can go alone." ”

Even if he said so, Jiang Jingyun had already put on the rain hat during this period, and then she looked at Jiang Yuntang and said firmly: "It's okay, take me with you." ”

Otherwise, she was worried that the village chief would not listen to them, and Jiang Yuntang would not be able to convince the village chief by himself at that time.

Jiang Yuntang saw that his sister insisted on going, and he no longer stopped him.

Then they went to the village chief's house overnight.

"Why are you here?" The village chief was a little surprised when he saw Jiang Yuntang and Jiang Jingyun, but he saw that it was raining heavily outside, so he still let them come in first.

Jiang Jingyun and her second brother glanced at each other, and finally Jiang Jingyun coughed lightly and said, "What, the village chief is like this, we came here to ......"

Jiang Jingyun said her worries again, and the village chief listened to Jiang Jingyun's words.

While touching his beard, he frowned and pondered, and after a moment of silence, he said: "What you said makes sense, Jiang girl, but what hasn't happened yet, isn't it too hasty and reckless to transfer the villagers overnight?" Every household in our village is dragging their families, and they have been very busy recently, and it will be spring planting soon, and the villagers are gone, what should we do with everyone's land? ”

"This is not the time to think about it." Jiang Jingyun explained anxiously.

The village chief didn't have the patience to continue listening to her, so he simply stood up and said directly: "Okay, I know that you mean well, but you are still too worried, our Jiangjia Village has not encountered a flood for many years, how can it be said that it will happen?" ”

"But ......," Jiang Jingyun planned to continue to explain.

But soon she was stopped by Jiang Yuntang, and he shook his head at her before saying, "Sister, forget it, let's go first." ”

Anyway, they couldn't make sense with the village chief for a while, and it would only be a waste of time to continue persuading.

Seeing this, Jiang Jingyun had no choice but to compromise and leave with Jiang Yuntang.

Just out of the courtyard, Jiang Jingyun stopped and glanced at the courtyard very unwillingly: "What should I do next?" We can't leave them alone. ”

"What else can I do?" Jiang Yuntang chuckled: "Even if he is the village head, but now that the situation is urgent, the villagers may not all listen to him." ”

Jiang Jingyun's eyes lit up when she heard this: "What do you mean......"

"Let's go and persuade the other villagers first, if we can convince one family." Jiang Yuntang said.

Jiang Jingyun nodded: "You're right." ”

That's the only thing they can do now.

After that, they knocked on the door one by one, and even though a few villagers had the same attitude as the village chief, most of them chose to believe their words and chose to go with them to the higher ground to avoid the flood.

In the end, Jiang Jingyun and Jiang Yuntang took those people to pack up their things and prepare to move, and their movements attracted the onlookers of those villagers who did not agree at first.

"You said that what the Jiang family girl said is true or false, will the flash flood really happen?"

"Why don't we go with us? In any case, it is important to save your life. ”

"Yes, seeing that the rain doesn't stop, what Miss Jiang said is very likely to be true."

When Jiang Jingyun saw those people, she couldn't help but stop and walk out of the team, and then shouted to them: "Everyone, hurry up and pack your things, otherwise it will be too late if something happens." ”

As she spoke, she looked at the village chief in the crowd.

Everyone also looked at him, and the village chief sighed when he saw this, and finally slapped his thigh and said, "Okay!" Just listen to Miss Jiang, everyone hurried back to pack their things. ”

With his words, the remaining villagers were also persuaded to pack up their things and flee the village, and go to the higher ground to avoid the disaster.

Jiang Jingyun and Jiang Yuntang went to call the eldest brother of the Jiang family and their family, and then went up together.

Later, the villagers of Jiangjia Village, under the leadership of Jiang Jingyun and Jiang Yuntang, were stationed in a cave on the mountain with gentle terrain and shelter from the wind and rain.

In the second half of the night, the rain outside intensified, accompanied by rumbling thunder.

Jiang Jingyun saw the surging flood rolling down in the distance through the night, and went straight to the direction of Jiangjia Village with the momentum of splitting mountains and seas.

The other villagers were awakened by the commotion and got up to look into the distance.

Even at night, the villagers were frightened by the thunder in the sky that illuminated the distant scenery clearly.

After being quiet for a long time, someone finally shuddered and sighed: "Miss Jiang is really a god, she can actually predict the outbreak of this mountain flood." ”
