"Master, have you forgotten that I told you yesterday that I would come to Jinxiang County to find out about you?"
After listening to Xiao Hei's words, Tao Qiqi finally remembered, and then said with an apologetic look: "I'm sorry, Xiao Hei, it rained heavily last night, so I took everyone to evacuate to Changdao County overnight. I forgot to give it to you.
Leave a message."
Since the heavy rain last night, Tao Qiqi has been busy, and she hasn't even slept yet, let alone entered the space.
But Xiao Hei understood her, so he replied with concern: "It's okay. When I couldn't find the owner in Jinxiang County, I happened to see the owner's guards, and then I asked them about the owner coming to Changdao County. Then the next day
Hei, I will come to find you and ask Miss Xiaoyu to escort me into the master's room."
Tao Qiqi nodded: "That's it."
Xiao Hei: "Master, have you been drinking?"
"Yeah, I drank a little." Tao Qiqi said, lying down on the bed.
Xiao Hei covered his master with a quilt, and then asked with concern: "Because of the villagers in Jinxiang County? Miss Xiaoyu just told me that there are so many supplies in the master's space. Although the money is locked, the food, cloth, cotton
Everything can be used directly. Why not just use it to help the villagers? Why do you have to work so hard to find people to raise donations?"
Tao Qiqi tucked Xiao Hei into her bed, then held Xiao Hei in her arms and replied: "Silly Xiao Hei, I usually see you are very smart, how can you be so stupid now? I took out so many supplies at once
, how to explain it to the outside world?
After someone collects donations, I can take out some more in the name of the caravan, and that will be no problem. What’s more, you definitely can’t do good deeds secretly by yourself, you have to form a gang to make sense. Today is different from the past.
understand."
After Tao Qiqi finished speaking, she fell asleep. Because she drank some wine, she soon fell asleep.
When Xiao Hei saw this, he stopped talking and did not dare to move. He just let Tao Qiqi hold him in a chokehold all night.
Fortunately, the chokehold was not very tight, so the wolf's life was saved.

Dawn——
The first thing Tao Qiqi did when she woke up was to wonder if there was any movement in the materials donated yesterday.
So after she washed herself, she quickly took Li Xia to the county government office.
Sure enough, everyone did not eat and drink for free last night. When Tao Qiqi came over, several batches of the supplies promised last night had already arrived.
Even many small shop owners on the street came to donate with their own meager resources.
Even if it's a cotton coat or a blanket, everyone can donate whatever they have.
For the first time, the county government office was extremely lively.
Looking at this scene, Tao Qiqi felt extremely warm in her heart.
Seeing Tao Qiqi coming, Mr. Lu and the county magistrate quickly put down what they were doing and came over to welcome her.
"Master Tao, you are here. I told you the news last night. Today at dawn, the gate of the county government office is surrounded by villagers who came to donate. You see, we already have a lot of the supplies we are short of." Magistrate Qi County
When he spoke, his face was also full of smiles.
Tao Qiqi looked at the neatly arranged supplies at the county government office and nodded: "Well, apart from those members of staff yesterday, how much short of the boss's supplies are yet to arrive?"
Quchang replied: "There are still six supplies that haven't arrived yet, but it should be soon. After all, they also need time to prepare."
Tao Qiqi nodded: "Well, let's wait and transport all the supplies together."
"Okay, then I will leave the transportation matter to Mr. Tao. All of our county government will obey your instructions." Magistrate Qi responded.
Tao Qiqi: "Okay, then I'll leave the fundraising for the county government to Magistrate Qi, and leave the transportation to me."
"Okay." Magistrate Qiang and Master Qiang nodded in agreement at the same time.
After that, they began to divide work and cooperate.
The county magistrate and Mr. Lu are responsible for county government registration and collection of supplies.
Tao Qiqi is responsible for distributing supplies.
However, the money has not been distributed for the time being. After the water is withdrawn, we will decide how to distribute it according to the suffering situation of each family.
This will ensure that everything is put to good use.
At 3:30 a.m. (around 7:45 a.m.), all the materials donated by Tao Qiqi were in place.
After the supplies are in place, the next step is to distribute the supplies. They need to distribute the supplies according to the needs of the affected villages.
Fortunately, Tao Qiqi asked Shan Ren to register in advance, so she had a rough idea of the situation in each village.
She only needs to mark them after allocating them according to the situation in each village.
The materials are distributed and marked very quickly. After that is done, the next step is the most critical step.
transportation!!
Because we are facing a flood this time, Jinxiang County has basically been submerged, and carriages cannot move at all.
Fortunately, Tao Qiqi asked her guards and government officials to build many bamboo rafts before.
Use horse-drawn carriages where the horse-drawn carriage can reach, and use bamboo rafts where the horse-drawn carriage cannot reach.
If the goods couldn't be loaded on the bamboo raft, she would find a way to transport them into the space.
Anyway, it has been allocated in advance. After delivering one village and then another, she can just take it out from the space.
But in this case, she can't bring anyone else to deliver supplies, she can only go with her escort.
But fortunately, she was here to handle this matter as Nangong Ye's person, so everyone never thought about it in the slightest.
In addition, the magistrate of Qi County has left all the transportation of supplies to her, so she can make all the arrangements on her own.
Then she took her escort and started transporting supplies.
Fortunately, because of the bamboo rafts, water transportation is much faster.
At noon, they arrived at the first village to suffer - Jianshan Village.
Originally, the villagers were hiding in a small cave next to the village, but because of the floods a few days ago, people from Tao Qiqi came to help them find a more convenient place to avoid disasters in the mountains, and then they moved their positions.
.
They all hid in the mountains behind the village.
There is a huge cave in the mountain, big enough for the entire village to take refuge there.
Moreover, the cave is not deep in the mountains, so there is no need to worry about wild beasts.
When changing positions, Tao Qiqi's guards had already opened a path in advance.
Although the roads are all muddy and it rained all night last night, it will be very inconvenient to walk, but it is better than no road at all.
When Tao Qiqi and the others arrived at the foot of the mountain, many villagers in Jianshan Village were waiting for them by the roadside.
When they saw Fu Shi and the other guards who had helped them that night in the crowd, they happily greeted them quickly.
"My lords, why are you here?"
Originally Fu Dong and Fu Shi were leading the team, but after Fu Dong finished his work, he and Shan Lin were sent to Yongdu by Tao Qiqi to handle matters.
"We came to deliver supplies to everyone, why are you all coming down?" Fu Shi asked.
"We originally wanted to come down to see how the village was doing, but then we met you." The person who answered Fu Shi was Wu Qiang, the son of the village chief of Jianshan Village, nicknamed Qiangzi.
