Allure of a Country Maiden

Chapter 177 Butterfly Effect

An earthquake suddenly divided a village into two villages.

If we didn't know in advance that it was an earthquake and knew where the source of the earthquake was, in the face of such a natural disaster, apart from avoiding it, how could we resist it?

The people of Qinghe County should be grateful to Xiaoer, and the court should be grateful to Xiaoer, Shangguan Xuanyi thought to himself.

After seeing the disaster area, Di Shaowei left Qinghe County and returned to the imperial capital to collect money and supplies.

Xiao'er also went back. Before leaving, she explained some precautions, especially reminding that the corpses of people and animals buried alive must be dug out and disposed of as much as possible, otherwise diseases will easily occur.

Shangguan Xuanyi was also asked to remind everyone that drinking water must be boiled during this period, and food should be cooked thoroughly, so as to avoid contracting the epidemic as much as possible.

Shangguan Xuanyi and Shangguan Xuanhao both nodded seriously without any doubt and said they would do as she said.

Nowadays, the people also listen to their words. Even the court knows about such a big natural disaster in advance. Isn't this against the will of heaven? Who dares not to listen!

Finally, Xiaoer gave Shangguan Xuanyi a bottle of pills, "Keep it for a few of you, one pill will take effect."

Shen Chengyao did not leave, but stayed to help. He comes from a humble background and knows more down-to-earth work.

This earthquake affected a wide area, but there were not many casualties. However, a large area of ​​​​the house collapsed. There was nothing we could do.

If it weren't for the area a little far away from the earthquake center, where some people just refused to leave and didn't believe there would be any earthquake, and the soldiers didn't have so much time to force them, perhaps zero casualties could have been achieved.

However, the soldiers all followed the instructions taught by Xiaoer and reminded them that it is best not to stay in the house at midnight and stay in an open place. If they cannot stay in an open place outside the house, they must hide under the bed or under a sturdy table as soon as possible. It is best to use wooden basins, copper basins and other things to protect your head.

Those who were doubtful found an open place to stay when they were ugly. Many of those who didn't believe it at all escaped with their lives because they were alert and hid quickly, but they were still slightly or seriously injured. However, some sleepers were injured. People who die are really dead, and you can’t blame anyone for that.

In the face of such a huge disaster, a dozen such casualties are really not many.

When Xiaoer returned to the imperial capital, she was also very busy. On the pretext of purchasing medicinal materials from everywhere, she also hurriedly entered the space to grow medicinal materials and make pills, and then transported them to Zhuangzi outside the city to store them for Shen Chengyao to transport to the disaster area.

Mrs. Liu was also busy wadding cotton, making cotton clothes and quilts with her servants.

One hundred thousand soldiers had been busy for so many days, and even braved rain and snow to guard the people all night, and all of them gradually fell ill. This was also expected by Xiaoer.

The rain gear of this era was so backward. Even if the iron was exposed to rain and was not dried in time, it would rust, let alone living people.

Therefore, the 20,000 doses of medicinal materials Xiaoer donated before were far from enough.

Although the medicinal materials produced in the space are very effective and almost all of them can cure diseases, there is still a lot of food for them! Those medicines were fried again and again, until there was no flavor left at all, but it was still not enough.

Xiaoer used all the land in the space to grow medicinal materials. The crops in space are being replaced and entering the fastest pace in prehistory!

Except for Xiao Jin who is still sleeping, he is the happiest! The two swans and the shrimp soldiers and crabs with a little bit of intelligence were so busy that they had dark circles under their eyes.

All the animals were full of envy, jealousy and hatred towards the little golden snake. When they were extremely tired during the day, they saw it sleeping comfortably and spit out a medicinal plant in its mouth and hit it.

It's a pity that a certain snake's skin can be compared to diamond, but it didn't react at all.

With his tongue and lotus flower, Di Shaowei raised more than one million taels of silver, a lot of cotton clothes, quilts, rice, flour, grain and oil.

Shangguan Xuanyi and others even donated one hundred thousand taels of silver each.

The days gradually passed. Every day, a horse-drawn carriage, a horse-drawn carriage, and an ox-cart loaded with supplies were delivered to Qinghe County, and one hundred thousand soldiers gradually returned to their base.

Every time a group of soldiers left, the people there knelt to see them off.

The post-disaster reconstruction work has been busy for more than two months, and the new year is approaching.

During this time without a home, the imperial court even provided food to the needy people twice a day.

The people also have a grateful heart, so all the people work hard to rebuild their homes.

Those wealthy businessmen also contributed money and efforts.

You can do whatever you can, there is no such thing as cheating.

Even five-year-old children helped look after the fire and carried bricks.

Thanks to the concerted efforts, all the people affected by the disaster in Qinghe County and nearby areas have moved into new houses, and every family has a new quilt or new cotton-padded clothes. This is a rule that gives priority to the elderly and the young.

Even the main roads in villages in Qinghe County have been built into cement roads.

Whoever sees this will not say, the people of Qinghe County are really a blessing in disguise.

The ability to complete post-disaster reconstruction so quickly is indispensable to the credit of the people.

When Shangguan Xuanyi, the men with stubble and weight loss, and the last batch of soldiers left, all the people in the county knelt down at the city gate and watched them go away until they were gone. Even if he disappears, he doesn’t want to get up for a long time!

The butterfly effect of this incident is that the people of Qinghe County have supported the Minze Dynasty and the emperor for generations. There is no policy issued by the imperial court that does not respond actively, such as conscription, labor, taxation, etc.

In all the dynasties of the Minze Dynasty, there were always a few upright and upright civil servants and loyal and brave generals who came from Qinghe County!

Their ancestral motto is to defend the Shangguan court to the death and serve the Shangguan court with all their heart!

In every success, some people are happy and some are sad.

The emperor's sons and the officials who supported them were particularly unhappy.

why?

Because the two sons and nephews born by the queen stole the show!

The reputation among the common people has reached an unprecedented high!

During this period, the eldest prince was so heartbroken that he vomited several mouthfuls of blood every day!

First, he lost hundreds of thousands of taels in gambling, and then he was discovered illegally mining the gold mine for one night. He didn't even get enough gold, and almost got a bad rap. Fortunately, he hid it deep!

Finally, there was the earthquake incident. He also donated 100,000 taels. He only had to raise the money without pawning his underwear, but no one knew about him or appreciated him! !

He still used the money defrauded from his own pocket, but he won the hearts of the people in the entire county!

Now the people in the imperial capital know their glorious deeds!

As princes, they braved the rain and snow to protect the people regardless of their suspicions, and saved the lives of hundreds of thousands of people!

It is said that they personally save people, personally treat people's illnesses and injuries, and treat the people as if they are their own parents!

There are even more outrageous people who say that they and the emperor are living Bodhisattvas!

simply! It almost pissed him off!
