Traveling through the Qin Dynasty, I seized the throne of Ying Zheng's father

Chapter 255 Lack of Information

Because I didn't know, I never cleaned it.

Upon hearing Fusu's words, Lord Zhou quickly nodded and said, "Your Highness, please rest assured, I have already sent people to notify every village. The village head has also informed the village chief, and the village chief has informed each villager."

"They are to keep an eye out at night if someone is unresponsive, so they can immediately take resuscitation measures. They are also to wake up their family members regularly so they can get up and move around. Although it is a bit troublesome, at least no more people will die."

"I have already sent people to announce this with gongs and drums, so that more people will know about it. Your Highness, rest assured, after this announcement, no one should freeze to death."

Seeing that Fusu was so concerned about the death toll, Lord Zhou naturally took it to heart as well.

Moreover, he laid out all the things he had done in front of Fusu and recounted them one by one.

This was to let Fusu know that he had also done his best in this snow disaster.

After the snow disaster occurred, he immediately sent someone to Xianyang Palace to report it.

We are also trying our best to take some remedial measures.

It's all to reduce the number of deaths.

If the death toll in his county were to rise further, the imperial court would certainly hold him accountable.

After a thorough examination, some of the things he did wrong will definitely be blamed on him.

He might not be able to continue in his official position then, so Lord Zhou is particularly concerned about this matter.

As soon as the snowstorm struck, he began doing everything he could to minimize the number of deaths.

Lord Zhou felt he had done a pretty good job.

Fusu also felt that Lord Zhou was a useful person and did not shirk his responsibilities.

They were not immune to pain after the incident.

At least it's somewhat useful to ordinary people.

Even compared to the rest of the officialdom, Lord Zhou's response was quite good.

Fusu nodded and said affirmatively, "You did a good job. There may be no experience with a sudden snow disaster, but you were able to reduce the number of deaths based on the limited information you had. That alone is quite good."

"As for the other cities that don't have supplies, there's nothing you can do with these. But now that we've delivered the supplies, there shouldn't be so many more people dying from the cold. We'll do our best to minimize the death toll then."

"Make the most of what I brought to save more people, and that will not have been in vain for those who donated supplies. They were heartbroken when they heard about the snow disaster here, and when I mentioned that I was raising funds, they generously donated a lot of money."

Fusu did not forget those families who donated silver.

Some of those families were people who sympathized with the disaster victims.

Another part is also to gain a good reputation.

Fusu was generous in helping them spread their fame.

As long as more supplies are raised and more people are saved, Fusu will not hesitate to praise him.

If this practice is promoted, this method can still be used in the event of a disaster.

Sometimes money is tight, especially now that money is needed both internally and externally.

The national treasury couldn't come up with that much silver all at once.

With no money in the national treasury, it would be very difficult for them to get money from Ying Zheng.

Since we can't get money from the imperial court, raising money through donations will do the same thing.

As long as the final result is the same, that's fine.

Lord Zhou was taken aback when he heard Fusu's words.
