Chapter 145: The luckiest thing in the world

The flood peaks receded, and there was jubilation on the embankment.

The subsequent reports of various river sections made everyone afraid.

In addition to the sharp bend in charge of Yushuwan, there are three earthen embankments collapsed in the entire more than 60 miles of rivers in Dangyang County!

It's just that the stone embankment made of cement concrete is solid as a rock, not to mention the main body, and even the embankments have never cracked, let alone collapsed like an earthen embankment!

After this flood, everyone has the most intuitive and clear understanding of cement, a new type of mortar.

Dangyang County was not a flood area in the first place, and the flood brought by a rare celestial phenomenon completely receded after two days, and the scorching sun baked the earth, as if to return all the heat owed in the past month or two to the people on the earth.

The flood control headquarters evacuated the Liuhe embankment, but a large number of people who worked instead of paying money did not leave, the river needs to be dredged, the washed out earthen embankment needs to be repaired, and tens of thousands of people still have to work here for a period of time.

Zhao Hengyi, who has been labeled as a madman by many people in his heart, does not have to continue to guard the river embankment and donate the cement formula for free, to a certain extent, indirectly saved hundreds of people in Dangyang County, and guarded countless fields and industries for the big dogs.

In the whole flood, if it weren't for the county order Liu Rui's insistence on rebuilding the river embankment, if it weren't for Zhao Hengyi taking out artifacts such as cement and concrete, Dangyang County would definitely be in the middle of this flood.

The river embankments in the upper reaches of several counties were washed down, the casualties were heavy, and hundreds of people were displaced, which was the rich gentry who were high up in the past, and the people who broke their families did not know how many, and the miserable situation spread to Dangyang County, and it made countless people sing praises to Liu County Ling and Zhao Dongzhu!

Liu Rui, the county magistrate who had just been removed from the river embankment, was busy with complicated things, and the epidemic prevention after the catastrophe was ready to receive the displaced people in the next county.

Even so, Liu Rui did not forget to report everything that happened in Dangyang County to Jiangling Mansion and the imperial court, and in the official document, Zhao Hengyi, a man from Cangwu County, was identified as the first contribution to the flood in Dangyang County!

At the same time, Liu County ordered the benefits of cement and concrete, and decided that this was a sharp weapon for building houses and cities, and asked the imperial court to promote it.

After Zhao Hengyi left the embankment, he went straight to the Dangyang Bo Courtyard in the county seat, in the past dozens of days, Miao Xiaoyu and her sisters have lived in fear every day, and any news from the embankment can make them like a treasure.

Worried that her husband would be distracted, although Miao Xiaoyu was terribly scared, she still gritted her teeth and endured, not to mention going to the river embankment to visit, and even the news did not dare to pass it on at will.

Sometimes people will be sent to the county seat to do business, Zhao Hengyi never forgot to ask people about the situation of Miao Xiaoyu and his sisters, and the reply he got was that everyone was okay without exception, although the husband and wife could not meet, but the feelings did not diminish at all, but because of worries and similarities.

As soon as they saw Zhao Hengyi, the six little ones couldn't help but surround them, hugging their thighs, pulling their clothes and calling their brothers-in-law, and their little faces were full of tears, which made people feel distressed.

Miao Xiaoyu, who was standing behind her sisters, also had red circles in her eyes and tears in her eyes, but Wei Linglan, the county lord of Xiangcheng, was watching with a smile on the side, she was really embarrassed, and she followed the example of her sisters and threw herself into the arms of her husband.

"I'm fine, isn't that okay?"

Zhao Hengyi, who was dark and thin and looked extremely haggard, had a relieved smile on his face, "There is no shortage of food and clothing on the embankment, and I don't have to work myself, I can't be tired. ”

While comforting his sisters and Miao Xiaoyu, Zhao Hengyi's eyes collided with Wei Linglan without a trace.

This rare independent woman in the Great Yan Kingdom still has that smiling expression, but her slightly red eyes betray Wei Linglan's true heart.

Everyone continued to return safely, and they also guarded the river embankment, and laughter and laughter suddenly filled the entire courtyard, dispelling the haze and depression that had been going on for many days.

The happiest person is the housekeeper Song San, this Song housekeeper's concern about Zhao Hengyi is not much worse than Miao Xiaoyu or Wei Linglan.

People in the world often say that the son of a daughter can't sit down, but this sworn brother of the uncle is really bold enough!

Not only did he personally take people to inspect the river embankment day and night, but even Song San heard that when Hong Feng arrived, at the moment when the most turbulent waves, this Zhao Dongzhu actually stood on the river embankment, opened his arms and looked up to the sky and laughed wildly!

Even as an old man who could endure for decades for his uncle in the Weiwu Marquis Mansion, Song San couldn't help but be impressed by Zhao Hengyi's courage!

is worthy of being the sworn brother of my uncle, and this courage alone is enough to stand proudly in the world!

What's more, Zhao Hengyi is not a reckless man, everything he does is beyond the understanding of ordinary people, almost creating one miracle after another!

Unlike people outside, because of business cooperation, Song San knows a lot of secrets, and his admiration and even admiration for Zhao Hengyi is getting deeper and deeper.

Even in the midnight dream, Song San sighed more than once, his uncle has the help of such a dragon among the dragons, it is simply a blessing that has been cultivated for several lifetimes!

When the flood receded, Zhao Hengyi naturally wanted to return to Yushuwan with Miao Xiaoyu and Wei Linglan.

Although Dangyang County escaped the flood, other places were not so lucky.

Jiangling Mansion, which was already plagued by displaced people, was even more difficult now, according to Wei Linglan's speculation, if he wanted to settle down, he was afraid that it would be after the autumn harvest.

In Yushu Bay, although the production of various workshops has been affected by the heavy rain due to the transfer of a large number of young people to the river embankment, the various rules and regulations set by Zhao Hengyi and the obedience that he has deliberately cultivated for a long time have not made the whole village chaotic.

Even every three days, there was a steward who made a special trip to the county seat to report various things to Miao Xiaoyu.

In this era, there are not many treacherous people, but there are even more honest people.

When Zhao Hengyi returned to the village, he found that the workshops had not suffered any losses, but had not had much impact on everyone's lives because the houses were all built of red bricks and concrete!

This scene cannot be seen in other places in Dangyang County!

Even if the river embankment was guarded and most places in Dangyang County were prevented from flooding, the rainy weather for many days, coupled with the last storm, I don't know how many houses were destroyed!

There are even some villages where there is not one in ten simple houses!

Most of the happiness in the world comes from comparison, and after the villagers of Yushuwan learned about the miserable situation of other villages through people who came to work in other villages, they were all glad that they lived in Yushuwan and their owner was Zhao Hengyi!

In the face of natural disasters, there are not many people who have lost everything, even their lives, but the people in their own villages can not only live in sturdy brick houses, but also do not have to worry about food, and can also work to earn wages, is there anything more fortunate and happy in the whole world?
