Chapter 268 is divided
If there had not been an earthquake, wouldn't the people have worked in vain?
They had to stay in the open area and move some of their daily necessities.
They had been hit by earthquakes before, and the shadow on their psyche had not abated.
If they heard that there was another earthquake, some of the people would be in a panic.
Of course, the government has to send people to maintain order, if there is no earthquake.
The Taishou of Shu County will report to Chaotian that Liu Zhang may be punished.
"Of course, it's good that there is no earthquake, but what we need to do is to prepare in advance and reduce the losses of the people."
Liu Zhang knew how much risk it would take to do so, but he couldn't ignore the safety of the people.
The punishment for him was nothing more than the removal of his title, and the emperor reprimanded him.
Liu Zhang doesn't care anymore, compared to many lives, it is worth it for him to do this.
If it were someone else, they wouldn't care.
Liu Zhang was not sure when the earthquake would occur, so all he could do was to arrive at an open spot in advance.
Wait at least seven days, after which there is no earthquake.
"Do you want me to inform the others? You can't always take the risk alone. ”
Li Dang was willing to take responsibility with Liu Zhang, and he felt that Liu Zhang was worthy of making friends.
He was devoted to the interests of the people, and did not care about personal gains and losses.
If Li Dang didn't express it, it would be too unrighteous.
"Later, I'll tell you about this, and I'll take responsibility alone."
If what he says is unfulfilled, then he is spreading rumors.
It is to create panic, even if the people do not resent him.
Some officials would appeal to the emperor to impeach him, and those who had enemies with him saw it as a good opportunity for revenge.
According to Liu Zhang's instructions, Ligan summoned the nearby villagers.
The villagers thought that Liu Zhang had arranged things for them to do, and they were used to it.
"I'm going to tell you something that's not very good, and I don't know if it's going to happen. There may be an earthquake in the next few days, so try to stay in an open area these days. ”
As soon as Liu Zhang's words came out, the villagers became even more silent.
They didn't shout, they were a little scared indeed.
They have experienced earthquakes and know how terrible they can be.
They have to do what Liu Zhang instructs, and maybe they can reduce their losses.
They regarded Liu Zhang as a demigod, and his words were very useful.
"What do you tell us to do? We listen to you. ”
Zheng Xun believed Liu Zhang's words, even if the earthquake did not happen.
He did this for everyone's good, and everyone should prepare in advance.
"Move your supplies to some safe place to store them, and you pitch your tents in an open area. Stay for seven days, and if there is no earthquake within seven days, you can return to your original place. ”
The people nodded their heads, so let's do it now.
Fortunately, the weather has warmed up in the past two days, and every household has an emergency tent.
Liu Zhang thought of the geodynamic instrument invented by Zhang Heng in the Eastern Han Dynasty and could try to make it.
To test whether the ground motion instrument has any effect, Liu Zhang thinks that the motion instrument is useful.
There are some signs before an earthquake, but sometimes it comes too suddenly.
It will take a long time for the ground motion device to be made, and before that, it is necessary to prepare for disasters.
Before coming, quietly put some tents in the warehouse.
It will be distributed to the people, and new tents will be distributed to protect them from the cold.
And it resists strong winds, and it is also comfortable to live in.
"There are some tents in the warehouse, and I'll send them to you later."
When the people heard that they had been given tents, they were very happy.
Their tents at home can also be used, but they are a little old.
Some people's tents are not very warm, as long as they can live in people.
Liu Zhang opened the door of the warehouse, and the folded tents were neatly placed inside.
"Everyone line up to get their tents, just follow the arrangement. Even if there is an earthquake, there is nothing to be afraid of, and each of you will arrange for some people to move clothes and food. ”
In the event of a major earthquake, they will not be short of supplies for some time.
Liu Zhang wants to prevent problems before they happen, he is not spreading rumors.
He had long thought about dealing with the impeachment of those people in the DPRK and China, thinking that Liu Zhang was spreading rumors and creating panic
The facts will tell, and when they were done, they went into action.
Two people from each household were left to receive tents, while the rest went home to carry supplies.
It lasted until nightfall, and the whole county learned that there was going to be an earthquake in the next two days.
They picked up leaflets thrown from the air and read them to them by local literate people.
They relayed this information to their relatives and friends, and even Taishou learned about it.
Gongsun Du rushed over from Chengdu County, and it was only a few days off.
Liu Zhang's side is lively again, and an earthquake is about to occur, which makes people everywhere panic.
Gongsun Du talked to Liu Zhang alone in the room, and hoped that he would think more about what he did.
If what he said does not come true, he may be impeached by the ministers of the DPRK and China.
The people will not know whether the word is true or false, and this will cause a lot of panic.
"How do you think an earthquake will happen? You have done this, and the people of the whole county have been very disturbed. ”
"Today I noticed something unusual, which is a precursor to an earthquake."
Liu Zhang talked about a few signs, and he would rather believe them. Otherwise, you will be buried under the rubble in your sleep.
"It's unrealistic, you're not responsible for yourself. You've already got the word out, and the follow-up is not easy to solve. ”
Liu Zhang told the people about the impending earthquake, but did not discuss it with him first.
I don't know what Liu Zhang thinks? Think you're doing the right thing.
"Even if I wanted to help you, I couldn't. If there is no earthquake in a few days, how do you explain it to the people? ”
Gongsun Du was a little angry, Liu Zhang was too reckless.
Li Dang didn't persuade him, the court would know about this matter soon.
If it is not good, it will make Liu Che angry, and it may even ruin Liu Zhang's good future.
This is not a trivial matter, and Gongsun Du also blames himself a little.
Recently, I stayed in the county seat and didn't take a good look at Liu Zhang.
"I am absolutely confident that the earthquake will happen in the next two days."
Liu Zhang didn't want to explain more, he knew that Gongsun was not angry.
The two sides disagreed on some things, and Liu Zhang believed that he was not wrong.
The two sides were silent like this, and Xu Xuan and Zhao Ci, who were standing outside the house, also felt a little uncomfortable in their hearts.
They felt that Gongsun Du was a bit excessive, and they really wanted to go over and count him down fiercely.
What qualifications does he have to blame their Lang Jun, everything their Lang Jun does is for the good of the people.
They also think about what is not good for them, and they only look out for their own interests.
If they could all think about the people, maybe the Han Dynasty would not have so many troubles.
"You think I'm reckless, and I didn't let anyone else take responsibility with me. I don't think it's creating panic among the people, I'm saving them. ”
Liu Zhang insisted on his decision, if there had not been an earthquake.
Wouldn't that be better, and the people would have nothing to lose?
Gongsun Du really wanted to slap the table, wanted to stand up, and didn't care about this matter anymore.
"I've been in the county these days, and I haven't helped you. You think that we people are too old, too conservative in our thinking and doing. ”
Gongsun Du was a little angry when he spoke, and he kindly persuaded Liu Zhang.
He ignored it, which made Gongsun Du very angry.
He will write a note tomorrow and ask for Gongsun Du to be transferred back to Chang'an.
He didn't want to take care of the affairs here, and distributed food to the people of the whole county a few days ago.
He said that it was given by God, so Gongsun Du didn't believe it.
But is there any other evidence that the people also received food?
It would probably be better if the grain was handed over to the imperial court to deal with.
The imperial court was already a little dissatisfied with Liu Zhang's private distribution of food to the people.
Hundreds of thousands of loads of grain, if used as military food to fight against the Xiongnu Han army.
It was enough to eat for a long time, and Liu Zhang did not discuss the matter with the imperial court.
He wanted to win the hearts of the people, or he had other intentions.
"I knew this was the case, I really shouldn't have let you come to Shu County. A few days ago, you privately distributed grain to the people, and some people in the DPRK were dissatisfied with your actions. ”
It is still necessary for him to tell Liu Zhang the news and let him do it himself.
After Liu Zhang heard this, he couldn't help laughing, those people wanted to swallow the grain privately.
And Liu Che wanted to transport this grain to the north, and some people did not care about the lives of the people.
They believe that relief materials have been distributed to the people, and that the people's livelihood is enough.
"That's God's bread, and you may not believe it. If I give this bread to someone else, the gods will be angry. ”
Liu Zhang's meaning is very clear, if these grains cannot be distributed to the people.
The grain could disappear at any time, even if he told the court.
They couldn't get the food, and now they blame him for not doing it right.
Some people are so selfish that the people are starving to death.
Some dignitaries and dignitaries are still squandering and wasteful, and they are not worthy to live in this world.
