Restart the journey(118)
Zheng Tiansheng didn't speak for a long time, and he didn't know how to answer this question.
But after thinking about it, given Mr. Lin's personality, it was not her character that the Japanese spy had disturbed her for so long and she still didn't return it. Now, before the phoenix could fly, they would take action first.
Whether you agree or not, it seems that you can't change other people's plans.
Then... just agree.
Zheng Tiansheng moved uncomfortably, "...according to the information, Phoenix is mysterious, and its level is not low."
If the level is not high, why bother?
Fourth Master pointed out, "Brother Zheng, you have been in Qin Province for a while. In your opinion, what is the current situation in Qin Province?"
Qin Province is much more stable than elsewhere.
"It's much more stable, but unfortunately, it's hit by a natural disaster." Fourth Master glanced outside, "Since the summer, it has almost never rained. And, judging from this, it will continue to be dry."
This is hard to talk about! There is such a thing as drought. If there is a drought this year, maybe the weather will be good next year.
Lin Yutong shook his head, "It's difficult! Our area is close to mountains and rivers, so it can be better, but other places are different. The autumn grain harvest is bad, and after the winter wheat goes down, when winter comes, there is no snow at all. Next year
The summer grain harvest failure is inevitable."
She had been observing for some days, and she really felt that a severe drought was just around the corner.
The fourth master then said, "Brother Zheng, as big as your heart is, an official can do as much as you want. When you come, what you are looking at is very important, but since you are here, you are the eyes of the superiors. Military and civil affairs are all political affairs, how can you ignore them?"
one?"
That's the truth, but what does this have to do with Phoenix?
"What does it have to do with it? Brother Zheng will find out later. As long as you know that this matter is really related to Phoenix, that's fine! But I was thinking, can we do something meaningful along the way?"
What does it mean to do something meaningful along the way? What is a meaningful thing?
The Fourth Master gave two items: "One, build water conservancy projects! Second, provide drought relief. Brother Zheng needs to report this matter to the superiors in a big way. First, see how much money the superiors can give..."
I'm afraid it's difficult! We can't even provide military expenditures, so this disaster relief matter is out of the question. The fourth master smiled, and he didn't expect how much money would come from the superiors to come to the disaster relief. However, under such circumstances, "raising donations from the society has become famous."
head."
Zheng Tiansheng felt his pulse, and then burst into laughter, "I understand! I understand! Brother, I understand this time. Don't worry, I will sing this play for you." After saying that, he stretched out his hand and talked to Fourth Master.
He shook his hand and said, "Brother, I have something in mind. Why not do it if you want to kill two birds with one stone?"
Killing two birds with one stone? Tongtong curled his lips inwardly, I'm afraid that was more than just this.
The fourth master over there pressed Zheng Tiansheng's hand, "This is what we say behind closed doors. Only we, husband and wife, and you, brother, know about it. I'll throw it away now..."
Understood! Don’t mention it to anyone. Lin Yutong shook hands with the other party again, “Just tell Brother Zheng, this is absolute trust. You know, sometimes, danger often comes from around you...”
Understand, even Xin Huguo and Bai Xue kept it secret. After he said this, something suddenly occurred to him, "Mr. Lin, do you not believe in Xin Huguo?"
No! Lin Yutong shook his head, "Mr. Xin comes from a personal bodyguard. If he can't be trusted, then who can? But precisely because Mr.
Acting Director, but he will also sell Director Chen’s face! The result of playing both sides is... there are always gaps. Even the Acting Director himself cannot guarantee that all his staff are clean. Therefore, to cut off the spread of news, only
As long as it's limited to you, me and the other three, that's fine. What we do is all fair and aboveboard, as long as we don't say it's related to the Phoenix, does it look like it's related to the Phoenix?"
That really doesn't matter.
"That's it!" Lin Yutong laughed, "Brother Zheng, you don't have to worry about who is the phoenix or who you love. Anyone who can bring real money, silver, and food supplies are all friends, what do you think?"
So that means there is no risk?
"The more you focus on money and supplies, the less risky you are."
After saying this, my mind was settled. Zheng Tiansheng stood up and said, "But this matter cannot be rushed. When I went back to report on my work a year ago, I will take care of it."
Of course that would be better, it would be even less relevant.
When I told Bago about this, he thought it was an excuse. But Tongtong knew in his heart that the drought was really coming. And only Fourth Master believed in him about this matter.
When there is a drought, it is too late to think about water conservancy projects. However, what we can do now is not to save one piece of land.
No one Tongtong told this, no one believed it. The fourth master had to dig through a lot of documents and materials from old papers, and even asked Zheng Tiansheng to fetch county annals from various counties. Tongtong didn’t know what the fourth master wanted to check.
She was on the bed, coaxing the child to sleep. She turned on the light and helped flip through the book, "What are you looking for?"
"According to the level of drought you mentioned..." Fourth Master said, keeping his hands in his hands, "Do you know that the mountains are actually very dangerous."
Tongtong changed color in silence, "Are you afraid of wildfires?"
But is it just a wildfire? If the drought is severe and the wildfires break out, and you still want to save the factory, there won't be a single plant or tree on the mountain, not even a rabbit.
Lin Yutong continued to look through various records, staying up until midnight every night, looking through the records, and there was indeed no record of Cuishan encountering a mountain fire.
But in order to prevent accidents, we have to find a way to separate a fire belt.
In addition, if there is a factory in the mountains, people will live there, and food and accommodation must be provided, especially drinking water.
A map of Qin Province hangs on the wall. This area of Guanzhong is not short of water, but is short of water conservancy projects. If there had been projects long ago, why should we panic now?
Tongtong pointed out such a large area, "If all of these are to be repaired...how much will it cost?"
Without actually seeing it, there is really no way to estimate it. But now I am trying to figure out how to cultivate it section by section.
The fourth master said, "As long as Zheng Tiansheng takes the lead, this matter won't be done! We have to send a telegram later, invite experts in water conservancy, and ask them to come and take a look..." What is a spy or not?
One thing, it's no big deal.
The autumn grain has been confiscated, and now it is promised. If there is no rain in the next spring, people will sell their children and starve to death.
The Fourth Master actually sent telegrams to Beijing and Shanghai, inviting experts and scholars to come and see it on the spot.
As soon as they had free time, the two of them took their children to the mountains and walked over them. They looked at where water could be stored and where warehouses could be built.
This God is really cruel. Seeing that the New Year is coming, there is really not a single snow. The river at the door can be crossed with just one step. The old village chief has already shouted, don’t wash clothes in the river, pick your clothes.
Take the water back and use it sparingly.
The bluestone slab underneath the puddle where children used to swim at the entrance of the village has leaked out.
The old people in the village gather together and visit the village's water pond every day. They have never seen the water in the pond reach the peak of meal consumption, and the pond is not full of water for half a day.
Bago's expression also turned serious, "What should I do...use this place...or abandon it?"
Who can predict natural disasters?
Don't throw it away! Use it! Fourth Master asked Tongtong to get the money, "We will fund the well ourselves."
Done! Drill a well.
Because of this, Fourth Master was very busy. Every day he went around with the well-drilling master to see where the underground water was more abundant.
Chang Ping would not see his father as soon as he opened his eyes, and sometimes he would not wait for his father to come back before falling asleep at night.
As the Chinese New Year is approaching, Lin Yutong diverts the child's attention and says, "Whatever you want to eat, I'll make it for you!"
I don't want to eat anything, it doesn't taste good.
The water fetched from the river is not as clear as before. It has to be left to rest when it comes back. Changping is used to clean water, and there is no unclean thing under the bucket. The first time I saw it, I didn’t eat anything that day. After that.
Lin Yutong didn't dare to let him see it anymore.
On this day, Lin Yutong was busy collecting water pattern information in the county annals. There was a knock on the door, "Sister, it's me."
It was Xiaotong's voice, calling her sister along with Yang Zi.
Just shout like this. If she shouts, she will answer.
Yang Zi put down his pen and said, "My sister is here. I'll open the door."
Well! Go ahead.
As a result, Xiaotong came in panting, carrying a big basket on her back.
"What are you doing?" She quickly helped and said, "Oh my God, how heavy it is!"
When the basket was untied, it was full of gourds.
what is this?
Xiaotong laughed, "Isn't it true that Changping can't eat the water in the river? I went to the mountain to trap rabbits, and guess what, I found a stream of water in the crevices of the mountain. It was very clean and sweet. The two of us
I found so many gourds with others, specially designed to hold water. Why can't I get twenty or thirty kilograms of water? It should be enough for two days."
Changping stuffed the drunken dates into Xiaotong's mouth and said, "Auntie, eat it."
Delicious! Very sweet!
Xiaotong sat down on the ground and tapped her long flat nose, "Auntie will carry water for you from now on, okay?"
"No! I'm tired."
Not tired!
The two got to know each other well, and Changping liked playing with Xiaotong.
Lin Yutong said, "Don't leave the mountain. If you persist for two days, the well water will come out."
Xiaotong sighed, "Sister, you will know when you pass by the fields. I can't even see the crops. I also want to open a place on the mountain. Next spring, I will focus on potatoes, sweet potatoes and the like... I used to run around with my master.
I have seen this kind of drought. When it comes, it can really kill people."
The New Year is coming, and there is no festive atmosphere. In this dry New Year, some flavor is missing.
On New Year's Eve, Lin Yutong received a telegram from Hu Mulan, asking about the drought in Qin Province. He also told in the telegram that Zheng Tiansheng was now campaigning everywhere to raise funds for Qin Province's water conservancy.
Lin Yutong told her that it was absolutely true and it might be more serious than expected.
She still wants to work hard, not to mention anything else, but just spring shortages and grain crops. Can she think of a way to allocate some of them?
Hu Mulan's location can reach heaven.
But it was of no use. After this dry year, Lin Yutong received money from Li Bomin, Sister Gui, and Ye Ying. Li Bomin even conveyed the intention of donating money to several friends in the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce, but nothing happened.
Didn't wait for a penny allocated from above.
However, Zheng Tiansheng came back again, his face glowing red. He stretched out a finger and said, "One million... one million donations have been raised... and some food will be shipped later..." As he said, he put the donation
He took out the list and said, "They are all on it. They are all very distinguished people..."
