Chapter 117

There is a lot of work and complicated. Wenwen ran all over the village, asking every household to move valuable things up the mountain. The houses on the mountain have signs on each house according to their names, and they can put things for people to live in.

Everyone may have to squeeze. Men sleep in shared bunks, and women sleep in a room with a single door, which is also common bunks. Everything is ready.

No one raised objections, and no one raised objections, and all followed orders step by step.

In order to prevent real illness from happening, isolation is required.

The yards on the hillside are built separately, and there are three rows of houses in total. The farthest row is a single yard. This yard is used for isolation of the sick. Firewood, rice, bedding, and bedding are all complete.

"The firewood is not enough, then go to collect firewood and put it in front of the fire wall to dry."

"understood."

The boys went to work.

Wenwen thought that she would be able to save the disaster in time, but she didn't expect that there was still no time.

Before everyone had time to prepare, there was a real flood. Seeing the river rising, it began to spread towards the village.

"Books on ethnology..."

Wenwen jumped off the ground and ran towards the clan school, but was grabbed by Zhou Hui.

"Don't go, it's all empty."

"It's been moved a long time ago. The first batch of books to be moved is in the room next to the fire wall. It's guaranteed not to be damp. Don't worry, we're keeping them safe."

Brother Big Niu smiled and dragged her to explain.

"Hurry up, don't stand still, there is a flood, hurry up and help everyone move things."

Not all the people in the village have moved, but the valuable cattle, bedding, and food have all been moved.

The young and middle-aged help to move things, and the elderly are responsible for cleaning and cooking in the hillside house and looking after the children.

When the family rushed up the mountain in a hurry, they saw the flood coming. Everyone was dumbfounded and silent, watching the water gradually spread over the village, and some houses on a slightly lower terrain were submerged little by little.

"Woooooo!"

I don't know who started to cry first. Seeing their own home being flooded and washed away, it felt like a heart-pounding pain. Their home was gone.

Immediately afterwards, many women couldn't help crying.

"What are you crying for? The important thing is that people are fine. At least we got everything out."

"Yeah, as long as people have nothing to do, most of the things have been snatched out."

"Don't cry, everyone. Crying has changed nothing. Fortunately, the granaries have been emptied and the canals have been dug. Next, everyone will live here. We have to arrange our lives."

The clan elder also showed his majesty to calm everyone's emotions.

"You see, we have food, and we can continue to make things in the workshop in the future, and we can sell them for money in the future. Let's work hard together to tide over the difficulties."

With the reassurance of the elders, and because of the advance warning, most of the finances were evacuated, and the loss has been minimized as much as possible.

Everyone quickly quieted down and obeyed the dispatch of the patriarch.

The patriarch arranged work for everyone, each performed his duties, and everyone had work to do.

The workshop can't do so much anymore, it's almost at a standstill, just wipe and tidy things up, repair the ones that don't work, and wipe clean the jars.

Wenwen boiled medicinal soup for everyone, and asked everyone to drink soup every day to ensure that they would not get sick.

Fortunately, they are well prepared, and everyone can feel at ease when they have food to eat.

They stayed on the mountain for nearly five days, waiting for the flood to subside, and after confirming that it would not come again, they sent young and middle-aged men down the mountain to check.

When they came back, the young sons and daughters were all red-eyed, and some houses were destroyed, and they couldn't even be found, leaving only ruins.

I still want to continue to live here. Everyone has to clean up the garbage in the village. After the flood, it is all garbage.

They have to clean up the garbage first and then burn it, otherwise they will get infectious diseases if they pile up together.

Some houses have also collapsed, and everyone needs to repair and build the house together.

The sources of all wells and springs should be sprinkled with medicine, otherwise people will get sick if they drink this water.

Wenwen prepared the medicine and took the girls to run around the village, sprinkle medicine, make medicine soup, etc., and the whole village was busy.

Although very sad, but fortunately, thanks to the words of the patriarch, the whole village worked together, and now no one is sick. Although a lot has been lost, at least there is food to eat.

Everyone still needs to build houses and other damaged places. Taking this opportunity, the patriarch said that we should simply build new ones.

The clan contributes part of the money, allows credit, and invites people to build together, and the young and old in the village help together.

However, Wenwen came to the patriarch, "Second Grandpa has something to discuss with you."

"You said."

"I want to get some money from you. My family has a lot. I plan to go to the county to buy the bottom. Now that the flood has just passed, there should be many shops and houses vacant, and the prices are also very low. Now is a good time."

"Oh, I forgot about this, okay, I'll give you the money and you can buy some for the clan."

"it is good."

Wenwen and Zhou Hui took the money and went to the county seat.

When they arrived at the county seat, they were all stunned. It was also in ruins, and many people were sitting on the ground crying. There were even dead bodies covered with white cloths on the street.

Walking by, it was all horrible, and there were screams of crying.

Zhou Hui went to the county government office, and the county magistrate was busy walking around. Zhou Hui's arrival was timely.

It is proposed to buy some houses and shops, it is best to buy a few more shops with a backyard.

Then you can provide him with a small amount of food, and he can only figure out the way to get the food.

There is a lot of food in Wenwen Space, and I decided to use some of it to help everyone. After all, this is also the root.

There is no shortage of food in their village. Wenwen intends to help the county magistrate and take care of Wangjia Village in the future.

Zhou Hui covered her, first negotiated the conditions with the county magistrate, and then sent him over in a carriage, pretending to be transported from the provincial capital.

The other end of the provincial capital was basically not affected by the disaster, and the influence of others was not great.

The county magistrate was very happy, and immediately agreed to keep the best shop for them. Zhou Hui wisely kept the bank notes first.

The county magistrate has started to ask people to buy grain seeds, and Zhou Hui also reminded him not to forget to buy some medicinal materials to prevent epidemics.

After talking with the county magistrate, Zhou Hui took Wenwen to make his own carriage and left. After returning to the village, he drove a few flatbed carts and took Wenwen away the next day.

Walking on the way to the provincial capital, but not going to the provincial capital, but on the way, take out the grain, load it into a carriage and tie it up, and then go back. Zhou Hui will hand over the grain to the county magistrate for emergency relief.

This made the county magistrate very happy, and it can be regarded as a solution to his huge difficulty. At least during the time of buying grain and grain seeds, he can first appease the people and let them have food.

After Zhou Hui finished all this, he took Wenwen back.

In fact, Wenwen thought for a long time before deciding to tell Zhou Hui the secret, because she couldn't do these things by herself, and it was impossible to suddenly hand over a lot of food to the county magistrate without knowing it.

There is plenty of food in the village, and she can't justify herself without help. She needs a trusted person to help her complete it.

She doesn't need to save her, but the opportunity will never come again. This good opportunity to win over the county magistrate will not come again next time.
