I rely on infrastructure systems to build a prosperous village
Chapter 60 The Meaning of Time Travel
At this time, the tents outside the shelter were full of people. Looking at the rolling flood, collapsed houses, and flooded farmland below the mountain, everyone couldn't help but feel their eyes turn red.
Village chief Liu's hand, which was holding his son's, trembled constantly. Looking at the scene below the mountain, his lips moved, and finally turned into a sigh, which was swallowed up by the heavy rain.
The Zhang family members who had just arrived at the shelter were so frightened by the scene below that they broke out in a cold sweat. If they had been a step slower, they might have been buried in the surging Chu River.
Everyone was thinking in different ways at this moment, but they all shared one thing: the relief of having survived the catastrophe. Thinking of this, they couldn't help but look at Li Lan and the others standing at the front with gratitude.
On this side, Village Chief Liu held the hand of his eldest son Liu Xi and walked straight forward. After standing still, he let go of his hand and bowed deeply to Li Lan.
"Lady Lan, I and the others from Liujiawan would like to thank you for saving our lives and giving us a new life."
When everyone saw the village chief like this, they all straightened their backs, bent over, and saluted.
"We are grateful to Miss Li for saving our lives and giving us a new life."
"We are grateful to Miss Li for saving our lives and giving us a new life."
……
A series of uniform shouts pierced through the dense rain, crossed the darkening sky, and resounded throughout the sky.
At this moment, Li Lan looked at the crowd in shock. Listening to the deafening shouts, his eyes reddened, his heart surging like a raging sea, unable to calm down. But it was as if, at this moment, he truly found the meaning of traveling through time and space to come here.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sniff, took a step back, bowed to everyone, and returned the greeting.
"I'm Li Lan, and I'd like to thank everyone in Liujiawan for their trust in me."
……
Natural disasters are merciless, but love is found in the world. This shelter, amidst the torrential rain, is filled with warmth and love. They will continue to pass on this warmth and love, using their own hands and diligence to create a prosperous era for Liujiawan.
On the other hand, things were not so smooth for Zhang Quan and his family who left Liujiawan.
At first, except for the rain, the muddy yellow mud road was smooth, and the ox cart moved slowly. However, when we were more than halfway there, a landslide occurred in front of us, directly covering the road.
Seeing the blocked road in front of them, they had no choice but to unload the cart, pull the ox, and climb up the mountain to take a detour. However, it was pouring rain, the soil was loose, and the mountain road was muddy and slippery. With a family of old and young, Zhang Quan, a strong laborer, was definitely not enough.
He could only hold his father with one hand and his mother with the other, while his mother held Zhang Meng. The four of them ignored everything and wanted to get down the mountain as quickly as possible while it was still light.
However, when Zhang Quan's wife Tian and his second brother's wife Dong, who were pulling the cow and carrying five children, finally climbed up with all their strength, they could not even see their figures.
Tian and Dong were stunned for a moment, their minds went blank. They shouted loudly, but the only answer they got was the crackling sound of rain.
Unable to get a response, the two of them couldn't help but feel their legs weaken and they sat down in the muddy water. Finally, it was the crying of several children that woke the stunned two people, and they hugged the children and burst into tears.
Zhang Quan and his companions who were walking forward were not in a much better situation. When they thought they had gone around the area and were about to walk down the mountain, they suddenly froze in place, looking at the surging river in the distance, feeling dejected and at a loss.
……
This time, a flood broke out in the three continents north of the Qin River, and the news reached the court at a speed faster than the blink of an eye.
The day after the flood broke out, in the main hall.
"Your Majesty, yesterday at 7:15 PM, floods broke out in many areas north of the Qin River." Minister of Revenue Zhou Hanmin stepped forward and bowed to make the report.
"My dears, do you have any plan to deal with this?"
Emperor Huide, seated on the dragon throne, surveyed the courtiers in the hall with a majestic gaze. Seeing them all bowing their heads in silence, he sneered inwardly, cursing, "What a bunch of rubbish!"
The hall was silent.
"A few days ago, the Censor gave me a secret letter. Liu Chun, read it to them."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Liu Chun, the chief eunuch standing beside Emperor Huide, bent down, took the letter with both hands, took a few steps forward, opened it, and began to read it aloud.
"Your Majesty, I recently arrived in Bozhou Prefecture. While visiting various villages, I observed that the soil was slightly moist, so I suspect that heavy rain will arrive in five days. This is a good omen for us. However, there is a folk saying that a severe drought is followed by a severe disaster. I fear that the heavy rain will continue in the next five days, potentially causing flooding, so I am submitting this letter to Your Majesty. During these five days, I will implement six major disaster prevention measures in all areas north of the Qin River. They are as follows:
First, put people first and activate the accountability system. Local officials and village officials will be ordered to each take charge of their respective areas, unify the people's thinking, and work together throughout the government to prepare for disasters. Those who fail to comply will be removed from their positions.
Second, order all localities to find their own refuge camps, take protective measures, and evacuate to the refuge camps after four days. Violators will be severely punished."
Third, he ordered all places to find doctors and prepare medicinal materials in case of emergency.
Fourth, all localities are ordered to organize local defense teams to maintain order and protect the evacuation of all local residents. However, vigilance must still be maintained in the refugee camps.
Fifth, decentralized responsibility system. Upon arrival at the refugee camp, the troops should be immediately divided into teams based on the "household" system, with each team leader designated as a team leader to manage the camp.
6. The above are all responsibility systems. Officials and responsible persons in all places must put people first, morality first, ability first, and act in accordance with the principles of good deeds.
The above six measures are all my actions. If the rains in five days do not cause flooding, it will be a blessing for our dynasty and Your Majesty. If anyone in the court investigates this matter, I will bear the responsibility for disturbing the people's hearts. However, I am not afraid. I fear that if flooding does occur, the three continents north of the Qin River will be flooded and the land will be littered with corpses.
I am willing to take the risk and give it a try for Your Majesty and the people of the Great Qin.
"Minister Zhou Yuntian submits a letter"
After Liu Chun finished reading, the entire hall fell silent.
The minister who had wanted to report Zhou Yuntian was now covered in cold sweat. He glanced around secretly and couldn't help wiping the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, secretly feeling relieved: It was so close.
"Your Majesty, I believe that the actions of Supervisory Historian Zhou Yuntian are of great virtue and will benefit the people north of the Qin River."
Zhang Zhongliang, the Minister of Rites, stepped out and bowed.
"I second the proposal."
Emperor Huide looked at the ministers bowing their heads in the hall and snorted inwardly: One day, he will replace all these useless people. Then his eyes narrowed.
"Lord Xu, have you completed the blueprints I gave you a few days ago?"
Xu Zheng, who was named, shuddered and quickly stepped out of the line, bowing and saying, "Your Majesty, it can be done tomorrow."
"Yes, when it's ready tomorrow, send someone to report to me immediately. I will go there myself."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The ministers were curious and couldn't help but look at Xu Zheng. Xu Zheng kept his head down, with an expression that said, "I don't know anything, don't ask me."
……
After leaving the court.
"Master Zhou, your son is truly amazing."
"Yes, Lord Zhou."
"Master Zhou, you are really a good parent."
Some ministers came to compliment Zhou Hanmin.
"Thank you all for your kindness. What I did was just my job." He bowed.
Looking at Zhou Hanmin surrounded by other ministers, the Minister of Personnel Wu Maozheng snorted coldly and walked away.
Some ministers were looking for the Minister of Works, Xu Zheng, to find out what the blueprint His Majesty had mentioned in the hall was, but he had already disappeared.
At this time, Xu Zheng in the carriage couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead, thinking: Fortunately, I ran fast.
