Chapter 19: Command

In front of this group of people who hold worldly power, of course, they must be open and honest, and Dongfang saluted and said: "Whether there will be a drought or not is not a matter to be discussed in this meeting, and you are summoned to discuss how to reduce the losses and how to avoid the displacement of the people." ”

He Zhifu of the capital was just appointed last year, and he was not from this province, so he didn't know much about Zhao Ran's deeds, but he had heard of the plum blossom easy number, so he hesitated: "I have heard of the plum blossom easy number, and the divination results are often far from the hexagram. I know that Master Zhao is already a Jindan cultivator, forgive this official for taking the liberty of not looking down on Master Zhao, but this official has not heard of any Jindan cultivator who can make such an accurate prediction, not to mention the use of plum blossoms. Can Master Zhao give us a more convincing explanation? Although the capital is not a thin family, it is still very difficult to fight the drought in the three northern counties with all its might. ”

Dongfang Jing glanced at Zhao Ran, and said: "In order to make everyone more cautious, and not hesitate to do things, I will report the forecast of drought here." This prediction was made by Zhao Zhiran, who walked on the door of the Zongsheng Pavilion in a very accidental situation, using the secret method of my Dao Gate - plum blossom easy number, some people have heard of plum blossom easy number, this divination method often accounts for the hexagram that is contrary to our expectations, not to the point of extremely profound cultivation, the interpretation of the hexagram will have a great error. Just as He Zhifu said just now, Zhao Ran is just a Jindan Master, how can the prediction he made be convincing? In this regard, what I can tell you here is that no matter whether Zhao Zhiran's other predictions are accurate or not, the result this time has been confirmed by Patriarch Longyang, the great cultivator of my Dao Gate and Dao Realm. ”

Hearing that Zhao Ran's prediction this time was confirmed by the Great Cultivator of the Hedao Realm, most of them were silent.

Xia Ji, the governor of western Sichuan, and the prefect of Long'an also acquiesced in Zhao Ran's prediction, and they were also very confident in Longyang Patriarch, or in other words, there were really few people in the world who had no confidence in Longyang Patriarch.

Zhao Ran is most worried that even if these people believe it, they don't believe it so resolutely, and when it comes to ordering disaster relief, the east discount and the west discount will make the problem complicated, in order to reassure everyone and make them attach great importance to this matter, so he emphasized again: "He Zhifu, everyone, I know why you hesitate, because the above-mentioned areas I mentioned have floods, earthquakes, and hailstorms, but there are very few droughts." But I can clearly tell you here that this time is a matter of survival for millions of Li Shu, and Poor Dao does not dare to leave any way out for himself......"

After a pause, Zhao Ran sighed and said, "For this divination, Poor Dao lost three years of life. Here, I swear to the Daozun, if there is a lie, teach the poor Dao to thunder and split. ”

The entire scripture hall was silent, and everyone looked at the expressionless Zhao Ran in the hall in a daze, speechless for a long time.

He Zhifu took the lead in getting up, came to Zhao Ran, bent down deeply, bowed his head and said, "He is the people of the capital, thank Master Zhao for his great virtue!"

Then there was the Confucian Governor's Mansion of Long'an Mansion, the Song Supervision Institute of Jingshou Palace, the Xu Supervision Institute of Xizhenwu Palace, as well as several Sandu Gaodao, and even Du Tenghui, Lu Tengen, Guo Yunzhen of Xuanyuan Temple, etc., everyone got up and came over and saluted Zhao Ran.

The political envoy Zhou Yi came up, took Zhao Ran's hand, and said solemnly: "The political envoy will do his best to fight the drought, please let Master Zhao feel relieved." ”

Zhao Yunlou was also very surprised, and finally sighed to Zhao Ran again and again: "It's not easy, it's not easy, it's heart, it's there, why worry about it!"

The deliberations lasted for three consecutive days, and during these three days, because of Zhao Ran's insistence, Zhao Yunlou and Zhou Yi decided to set up a "Northwest Sichuan Drought Fighting Headquarters".

When discussing the candidates, Zhao Yunlou and Zhou Yi felt very awkward about the list that Zhao Ran had drawn up.

Commander-in-chief: Dongfang Jing, Zhao Yunlou, Zhou Yi

Deputy commanders-in-chief: Du Tenghui, Lu Tengen, Feng Tengchuan, Nie Zuochen, Zeng Xianming, Gao Shengheng

Members: Bai Tengming, Song Zhiyuan, Xu Tenglong, He Wenbin, Kong Chenggui, Zhao Zhiran......

There is a headquarters office: director Zhao Zhiran

There is a coordination group under the office: Li Tengxin, Pei Zhongxi......

Engineering Group: Lei Shan, Li Zhining......

Document group: Yuan Hao, Lu Zhicheng......

Propaganda Group: Yu Zhichuan, Yang Zhiwen, Jiang Zhibiao......

Emergency team: Zhu Meng, Qu Fenghe, Guan Yushan......

Rescue team: Song Yuqiao, Zheng Yutong, Cao Yuzhu, Yu Yuqi......

Finance Section: ......

Logistics Team: ......

Zhao Yunlou: "......"

Zhou Yi: "......"

Dongfang Jing: "Haha! hahaha......"

Zhao Ran explained to them: "The three commanders-in-chief represent the Jade Emperor Pavilion, the Xuanyuan Temple, and the Political Envoy respectively. ”

"The deputy commander-in-chief includes the three capitals of Xuanyuan Guan, the right political envoy of the Buzheng Division, the commander of the Sichuan capital and the envoy of the inspection. The fight against drought will inevitably involve the movement of troops, and this will involve all commanders, and there will inevitably be large exchanges of gold and silver, which will require the investigation and handling of lawlessness according to the inspectors, which is indispensable......"

Zhao Yunlou interrupted: "There is no need for so much, Teng En and Teng Chuan have their own affairs, take them from the list, and Teng Ming can go in." ”

Zhou Yi also shook his head: "Nie Zuochen, forget it, he's very busy." ”

Zhao Ran knew the true thoughts of these two, after the success of fighting the drought, they would be rewarded for their meritorious deeds, Zhao Yunlou actually didn't plan to let Feng Tengchuan share this cup of soup, but it was too ugly to take him down alone, so let Lu Tengen accompany the list, as for Lu Tengen's merits, when the time comes, you can make a note of it by arranging a random matter, and there is no need to list it.

As for Nie Zuochen, the official position of Right Buzheng itself is a substitute for Zuo Buzheng, which is somewhat similar to Tongzhi, and his status is very high, but Zuo Buzheng doesn't want you to interfere, so you can't even get "Tongzhi".

In the Sichuan Political Envoy Division, Nie Zuochen is like this, the inside story is very complicated, but at least the discord between the two is almost an open secret.

But even if Zhao Ran knows the inside story, when he registers for the form, he must write the names of these people, like a person of this level, who to keep or not to keep, it is not for Zhao Ran to decide, he just reports it.

At the moment, according to the opinions of Zhao Yunlou and Zhou Yi, Lu Tengen, Feng Tengchuan and Nie Zuochen were crossed out.

The next members of the leading group are assigned according to the Dao Palace and the State Government, with two in one government, one in the Dao Palace and one in the official government, all of whom are the leaders of the three state capitals.

Zhao Yunlou and Zhou Yu still felt that it was an eyesore, but when they lifted the pen, they went around and around a large list of names, and they couldn't put down the pen, and after thinking about it for a long time, they found that they couldn't take any of them.

It wasn't until he looked at the various group names and members in the "headquarters office" that he breathed a sigh of relief, looked a lot more comfortable, and nodded his head in agreement from time to time, or shook his head to ask questions.

Zhao Ran watched the two of them compete with himself, and he didn't feel a burst of amusement, and turned his head to look at Dongfang Jing, who also smiled silently.

The first thing the Drought Command did when it was established was to coordinate the distribution of silver, food, and labor from all sides.

To this end, Zhao Ran explained in detail the drought control matters he wanted to carry out in the classroom, and made a budget table based on these matters.

All these matters are collectively referred to by Zhao Ran as the "three major projects" and "four major reserves".
