Chapter 148: The Snow Disaster Arrives as Scheduled
Ning Ruyan didn't have time to ponder what the other party meant, because this second snow had been falling for a day and a night, but there was still no intention of stopping, and there was even a growing trend.
In a previous life, at this time, a snow disaster occurred.
However, it was stopped after two days, and even a sunny day was revealed, just when everyone thought it was okay, but only three days, snowflakes fell again, this time it rained for five days in a row, causing a large area of snow in the capital and the surrounding areas.
Many houses were crushed in the snowfall.
Of course, it is good to say that the most serious ones are the villages on the outskirts of Beijing, especially some poor villages, where the houses are all thatched houses, which were the first to be crushed.
Although there were no casualties at first, many people were left homeless.
What she remembers most is that the three villages in the northeast of the capital were buried by snow almost overnight because of their relatively low location, killing and injuring hundreds of people.
However, she once told Jiang Yan about this as a dream, but she didn't know if he had done some measures in advance.
"Miss, this heavy snow can't stop for a while." Forsythia walked in with a basket of silver charcoal, "I'm afraid there will be a disaster." ”
Ning Ruyan nodded: "If it continues to fall, it will really cause disaster, but this snow will stop tomorrow." ”
"Miss, are you still looking at the sky?" Forsythia smiled, put a few pieces of charcoal in the charcoal basin, and fiddled with the tongs a few times to make the charcoal fire ignite.
"I can still pinch it." Ning Ruyan smiled, "Don't make a charcoal pot yet, go out and inform the kitchen, and continue to go out to buy ingredients, and collect as much as you can." ”
"Aunt Yu has already taken Ning Xing and them out, and she has booked more than a dozen chickens and two pigs with someone before......"
Ning Ruyan nodded, on such a cold day, I am not afraid of things breaking, so the more you hoard, the better.
The next day, the snow stopped, and everyone was very happy and began to stop the snow from clearing, and there were even people building snowmen at the gates of some of the surrounding yards.
Ning Ruyan was still in a heavy mood, and after thinking about it, she still decided to meet Jiang Yan.
However, this time, before she could send someone, Jiang Yan came by herself, and she still brought someone directly to the door, and even spoke straight to the point: "Yanyan, although you said that you had a dream, I still want to know more things, you said that it will continue to snow more in three days." ”
"Okay." Ning Ruyan nodded, and said all the things in his memory of his previous life in detail, "That's all I can remember." ”
"That's enough." Jiang Yan nodded, "Don't go out recently, I will send people around to protect here." ”
Ning Ruyan shook her head: "I have enough manpower here, you don't need to keep people, disaster relief needs more manpower." ”
Jiang Yan glanced at Zixuan and the others guarding the door, nodded slightly, and acquiesced to Ning Ruyan's statement: "Then I'll go first." ”
"Be careful."
Jiang Yan smiled and nodded, turned around and left with someone.
Sure enough, after three days of clearing, the sky was overcast again, and in the middle of the night, snow flakes were falling again.
Ning Ruyan stood under the porch, looking at the snowflakes sprinkled on the ocean, and touched her stomach slightly, hoping that Jiang Yan could save more people, and naturally hoped that he would be safe.
Bai Zhi had already closed the shop and came back, and even brought Dr. Sun and his wife together, after all, after the snow disaster, there was no place where she was so well prepared.
As for other people, such as the eldest princess, she is not worried at all, after all, there are people over there who have money, even if it is a big disaster, it will not affect their lives.
Finally, the heavy snow fell again, and bad news came one after another, but there was also good news, that is, when the snow just fell, Yu Linwei's people scattered and notified the surrounding villages and assisted them in moving, so when the heavy snow fell again, except for the damage to the house, there was no news of casualties for the time being.
Moreover, the imperial court also acted quickly, and some idle houses in Beicheng were cleaned up and used as temporary shelters for the victims.
The other is to open a warehouse and release grain.
Originally, there was no need to open a warehouse so quickly, but this time, because of Jiang Yan's operation, many officials in the court proposed to open a warehouse immediately, so the emperor personally ordered the warehouse to be opened, and then found a problem, the granary, which should have been very sufficient, was much empty, and there was even a lot of moldy and damp grain.
Emperor Xia Wen was immediately furious, and directly ordered that it must be thoroughly investigated, and directly handed over this task to Jiang Yan.
"Miss, I really didn't expect that at the feet of the Son of Heaven, he would dare to be so blatantly corrupt." Sang Ye snorted twice, "This time, I'm afraid that the old man's black gauze hat of the Hubu Shangshu will not be able to be saved." ”
Tobe Shangshu? Isn't that Liu Kan? His eldest daughter had a marriage contract with him, and now that Miss Liu Er also has a deep affection for Jiang Yan, and I don't know what Jiang Yan will do.
After five days of heavy snowfall, it finally stopped.
Some large families in the city began to set up porridge sheds, and some even donated cotton clothes.
Ning Ruyan held a large amount of supplies in her hands, so she naturally would not stand idly by, but she was already more than eight months pregnant, and it was very inconvenient to move with her stomach up, so she did not come forward in person, but handed them over to her subordinates to deal with.
Angelica Angelica also set up a medicine shed, such a cold day, if you are not careful, you will catch a cold, so the distribution of cold medicine is as important as soup porridge, not to mention, there will definitely be a big epidemic after the disaster, and you have to take precautions.
General Enwei's Mansion also set up a porridge shed, and it was next to Ning Ruyan's porridge shed, Sui Changying knew that Ning Ruyan was inconvenient, so she would also come over to help.
Jiang Yan would come over to see Ning Ruyan whenever he returned to the city, even if he didn't speak or just glanced at her from a distance, and he was relieved to find that she was honestly staying at home.
"You don't need to come here every day." Ning Ruyan was helpless about this.
"Tell me where I am, and you won't be thinking."
"Why am I thinking?" Ning Ruyan felt that Ergen was a little hot.
"Just like I want to tell you." Jiang Yan smiled, "I have notified them in advance of the transfer of the villages you mentioned, however, there are still some people who are disobedient, and now there is news that there are more than a dozen people trapped in Beicun, I will bring someone over to rescue them later, and I may not be able to come back the day after tomorrow, don't worry about me, I will be fine." ”
"Who's worried about you?" Ning Ruyan glanced at the other party, "Don't be sentimental, let's leave quickly." ”
Jiang Yan kissed Ning Ruyan's forehead, and then really turned around and left. (End of chapter)
