Chapter 216: Self-help

The decline of one power often means the rise of another.

At this time, the human race officially stepped onto the stage of heaven and earth, and grew into the first clan between heaven and earth.

Although this sentence is easy to say, the price paid by the human race is undoubtedly extremely heavy.

Looking at the victims in front of him who seemed to be still, the anger in Huang Zhidao's heart was dispelled a little, these people were still hopeless.

Huang Zhidao saw that the time had come, so he spoke again: "Let me ask you again, do you plan to save yourself, or are you ready to rely on other people's charity and live the kind of life where you can live one day at a time?"

"Please also make it clear that we naturally don't want to wait here to die, but we have nothing else to grow except farming, and as we just said, food will not appear out of thin air. The big man who had just been scolded by Huang Zhidao raised his head suddenly, and said with a somewhat bitter expression.

In the eyes of all the victims present, they also showed expectant eyes, they were actually fans of the authorities before, and they were not really waiting for death here, in their subjective consciousness, such a major disaster occurred, and then it was time for the imperial court to come forward, when they were in Weinan, they couldn't wait for relief at all, and that feeling was like a black eye, and they couldn't see the light ahead at all.

If they continue to stay in Weinan, there is only a dead end waiting for them.

The reason why they chose Chang'an, mainly because Chang'an is the place where the Son of Heaven is sleeping, the situation here should be better than that of Weinan, and the imperial court can't completely ignore them, sure enough, they have just come here for a few days, and they have waited for Huang Zhidao, the savior.

"Okay, then let me ask you, if you build a simple thatched house, how many days will it take?" Seeing this, Huang Zhidao naturally knew what these victims were thinking, and by this time, his original purpose had been achieved.

However, the most serious problem at the moment is not actually food, but the resettlement of these refugees, and now that winter is approaching, if there is no place to settle these victims, they will not survive this winter, even if there is enough food, they will be frozen to death.

"Four or five days. Dahan thought for a moment, if he alone built a simple thatched house in a short time, although it would be a bit laborious, it was still barely possible.

"Now that winter is coming, if there is no place for you, then your fate, even if I don't say it, you must know it, but as long as you are willing to work together, it is not difficult to solve the current dilemma. As soon as Huang Zhidao's words fell, the eyes of the victims present were obviously full of color.

He followed Fang Cai's words and continued: "I have made a cursory observation, there are probably less than 40,000 of you here, of which 20,000 are strong, it only takes more than ten days for you to rebuild your home and build a temporary residence outside this Chang'an City, although it may not be very good, but only by surviving this cold winter, you will have the qualifications to survive." ”

"As for the old and weak women and children, although they are not as strong as the strong, they can take care of some trivial matters and some things within their means. ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, my words may be a little unpleasant, but the truth is correct, you want to live, you can't count on the rescue of others, only to save yourself, in order to really survive for a long time, natural disasters are not terrible, but what is terrible is that you lose the courage to live, at this critical juncture, only if everyone works together to overcome the difficulties, can we live. ”

"As for the food problem you are worried about, this official will naturally be responsible, I will not hide it from you, we might as well open the skylight and say something, in the case of saving as much as possible, today's food is only enough for half a year, and the natural disaster in Weinan will take at least a year to pass, so after building a residence, you must start learning to hunt, as well as collecting food, such as wild vegetables, wild fruits, etc., can be eaten, Chang'an City is full of mountains and forests, as long as you are willing to look for it, you will not starve to death." ”

The victims burst into cheers in an instant, and many people's faces were already covered with joy, and after a while, the victims in the distance also cheered together after knowing about this incident.

They are coarse people, but the most basic judgment is still there, whether Huang Zhidao's words are true or false, in fact, it is easy to distinguish, those dog officials don't disdain their nonsense at all, but Huang Zhidao is different, the other party has talked to them so patiently, this alone is enough to convince them.

Because they are newcomers, they still don't know about Huang Zhidao's reputation for being incorruptible, and if they had known Huang Zhidao's personality in advance, they would not have raised such doubts.

"Your Excellency, you are a good official, we misunderstood you earlier. ”

Saying that, the big man who had collided with Huang Zhidao before was about to kneel, but Huang Zhidao just stopped him, and finally showed a long-lost smile, and said: "Next, you will do this well, don't have the slightest slackness, this is the biggest reward for me." ”

"My lord, don't worry, even if we are for ourselves, we will definitely spare no effort to do this well, this is what adults call self-help. The victim smiled, and after talking for so long, he finally showed a knowing smile.

Next, under the leadership of Huang Zhidao, tens of thousands of victims soon came to a relatively empty mountain forest area five or six miles away, and they explored, and this was the best place to build a village.

The neighborhood is full of trees, so you don't have to worry about building materials.

And more importantly, it is backed by a water source, so it is easy for disaster victims to go and get water.

......

In a mansion somewhere, two middle-aged men couldn't help but glance at each other, and there was a hint of solemnity on their faces.

"Brother Zuo, that Huang Zhidao is really lucky, our arrangement this time, not only did not hurt him, but also made a wedding dress for him, and when this disaster is over, the other party will definitely get His Majesty's reward by virtue of disaster relief, His Majesty has always been dissatisfied with us, we all know this, once Huang Zhidao is promoted, I am afraid that in a very short period of time, we will be able to sit on an equal footing with us. One of them smiled wryly.

"Hmph, so what, if he wants to get his wish, he has to ask me first if I agree. The man surnamed Zuo snorted coldly, and a touch of displeasure flashed on his face.

"Oh, Brother Zuo, do you have any clever plan?" the man's eyes lit up when he heard this.
