Chapter 902: Disaster Relief: The people are short of food
"On the sixteenth day of the month of the year of Bingxu, at the beginning of the Shen period, the land of Qingyang Mansion was greatly moved, from the west, the sound was like thunder, the city tower was built at the entrance of the official house and the village temple, and all collapsed like flat ground for a while. Thousands of people were killed and tens of thousands were wounded in the city. Immediately cooperate with the Zhou family in Qingyang to carry out disaster relief and reassure the people, distribute porridge and loose grain, and gather wood for sheds. Fortunately, there were no aftershocks after the earthquake, which is beneficial to our actions. At this time, the west of Qingyang Mansion was completely damaged, and the south and north of the city were also largely damaged, but the east of the city was still intact, and only more than ten houses collapsed. Although the earthquake has been silent so far, this earthquake has no warning and has happened very strangely. To be, there is something strange here. ”
After initially carrying out a series of measures to relieve the disaster and reassure the people, Wang Yuehe immediately revised a letter to report the sudden earthquake in Qingyang Mansion back to Qiwangbao in Qizhou, Dongzhou. This earthquake, whether it is Wang Yuehe or Zhou Qingyang, they all feel that there is a strange feeling everywhere.
Therefore, at the end of the letter, Wang Yuehe proposed that Qi Wangbao pay more attention and strengthen the intelligence collection of Qingyang Mansion and other areas of Xizhou. After the earthquake, Wang Yuehe always felt uneasy, as if something was going to happen.
Of course, it may be that Wang Yuehe thinks too much, but when he talked to Zhou Qingyang about his doubts, Zhou Qingyang also expressed that he also felt uneasy, Wang Yuehe knew that his uneasiness seemed to really indicate that something was about to happen.
It is not clear what will happen now, but in the near future, it may be clear.
Only this time, Qingyang Mansion was really badly damaged, more than eighty percent of the area in the city was reduced to rubble, and only the Qingyang Zhou family, which was not far from the east city gate, and the Qingyang branch of the Five Merchants League and those houses near the east city wall were still intact. And the Qingyang Branch of the Five Merchants League and the Zhou family resettled the affected people in Qingyang Mansion are also in those areas.
It is also thanks to the great business of the Zhou family that they have a lot of grain in stock, which can support the consumption of this disaster relief. Otherwise, the tens of thousands of people in Qingyang Mansion would really have to die of cold and starvation at the end of the year.
Rao is like this, according to the Zhou family's current grain stockpile, but it may not be able to support the tens of thousands of Qingyang Mansion refugees for long. After all, these are tens of thousands of people, and the amount of food consumed in a day can be imagined. But now it's the middle of winter, and the grain production has long been cut off. Unless they buy food from the surrounding towns, they will have to be driven out and left to fend for themselves.
Wang Yuehe and Zhou Qingyang discussed, and the two sides worked out two methods. Wang Yuehe wrote a special letter and sent it back through the intelligence system of the Five Merchants Alliance, and dispatched a large amount of grain and supplies from the storage warehouse belonging to the Five Merchants Alliance in the nearest town to Qingyang Mansion.
As for the Zhou family, Zhou Qingyang's eldest son, Zhou Zetao, personally went to the surrounding towns to purchase grain. The foundation of the Zhou family is in Qingyang Mansion, with the convenience of the ancient Silk Road, there is still some influence among the forces in the surrounding state capitals, counties, towns and villages.
It's just that whether it is from the material storage depot in the nearest town of the Five Merchants Alliance, or the purchase from the towns around Qingyang Mansion that Zhou Zetao is going to, it seems that some of them can't save the near fire. In particular, the towns where the Five Merchants Alliance recently had material warehouses belonged to the boundaries of Central-continent. And now, although the rebellion of the kings of Central Continent is declining due to the intervention of the Five Merchants Alliance and the collapse of the power of the king of Henan, the rebellion of the kings will not stop for a while. In addition, from Zhongzhou to Xizhou, which is now a three-way border, bandits are still rampant, and it is a great risk to transport food and materials from the material storage warehouse of the Five Merchants Alliance to Qingyang Mansion.
However, Zhou Zetao went to the surrounding towns to purchase food items, but it also took a certain amount of time. Whether the Zhou family's current food stock can be rushed back before it runs out is also a big question.
