This time Xiao Qian and Li Qingjue joined forces and spent 200 million in just a few days without even blinking an eyebrow.
On the contrary, the bank called me several times, all with fear in their words. It was not until they confirmed repeatedly that the funds were spent by them that they released the money.
By the beginning of May, the supplies ordered by the two began to arrive.
Xiao Qian and Li Qingjue started busy arranging supplies again.
But on one side is the Yangtze River Basin, on the other side is the Songhua River, and the Nenjiang River Basin, thousands of miles apart.
Transportation, warehousing, and distribution, because there were so many things, really consumed a lot of energy from the two of them, and they couldn't even take care of the company's affairs.
Fortunately, everything in Starlight Culture is now running normally, and various projects have already been implemented, so Xiao Qian does not need to follow and supervise.
After more than a month of busy work, the two children with red lips and white teeth and delicate skin were as tired as black-skinned monkeys before the supplies were properly arranged.
Li Qingjue was even more attentive and rented houses in Jiujiang, Yichang, Jingzhou and other places. He also hired hundreds of women and purchased pots, pans and other equipment.
In her words, before the soldiers and horses are moved, food and grass go first.
When the time comes for the People's Liberation Army to go to the embankment to fight floods and rescue people, instant noodles and ham sausages alone will not be enough. Although the military has its own logistics supplies, it will definitely not be able to take care of them when it is busy.
At this time, having hot food and rice in your mouth is really more useful than anything else.
What else could Xiao Qian say to this considerate daughter-in-law?
I had no choice but to keep everything in mind and prepare to compensate her well in the future.
Little did he know that in Li Qingjue's heart, he was no less grateful to the People's Liberation Army than he was. He did all this willingly.
In early May, Xiao Qian's first quarter copyright income was received, which was another huge amount of income.
He didn't keep them either. He bought all the assault boats and small boats and placed them at important river sections.
From his previous life until 2020, he still clearly remembers a picture in his mind.
A young People's Liberation Army soldier holds a basin above his head, and in the basin sits a rescued child.
Although the torrential floods had reached the People's Liberation Army soldier's neck, he still escorted the child calmly.
So where is the life saved?
It is clearly hope.
If there were more water vehicles, could more people be rescued?
In fact, the rain has been coming since the beginning of May. It was drizzling at first, but after the middle of May, it gradually started to get worse.
The sky was covered with dark clouds and there was no sunshine in sight. There was no thunder or lightning. However, the rain seemed to be pouring down and there was no stopping in sight.
The Magic City is close to the sea. Normally, no matter how heavy the rain is, it will basically disappear soon after it stops. But this time, water accumulated in many places in the city, causing severe waterlogging.
Even the Demon City is like this, and you can imagine it in other places.
Xiao Qian was worried about the flood and was always paying attention to the news.
Sure enough, everything was the same as in the previous life, severe floods occurred.
He first called his hometown in Northeast China to inquire about the situation.
The situation is very gratifying. Through his efforts, the large ditch to the west of his hometown has been replaced with a solid cement embankment, and the blockage in the ditch has been cleared.
Although the floods surged down from the upper reaches, making people in the village fall asleep listening to the roar of water dragons every night, there was no need to worry about the floods rushing into the villages.
Now the whole village is thinking of the Xiao family, and it is said that it even alarmed the county.
After learning this situation, Xiao Qian finally felt relieved.
The Black Province was too far away for him to rush back, so he sent a capable subordinate there to be responsible for the unified deployment of supplies.
Xiao Qian sternly warned that the supplies must be handed over to the People's Liberation Army. The rest of the people did not need to pay attention. If anyone is looking for trouble, just report to him directly.
In the following days, the situation became more and more serious day by day. The flood situation in various places took a turn for the worse, and many places were flooded.
"I plan to go to the front line."
As soon as Xiao Qian finished speaking, he saw Li Qingjue's earnest eyes and said hurriedly: "I'll just go alone."
Unexpectedly, Li Qing did not cause any trouble this time, but just packed his clothes himself.
"There are huge floods over there and there are many dangers. You must be careful."
Xiao smiled lightly.
"Okay, I have a lot of followers around me and countless bodyguards. What danger can there be?"
He originally planned to take a flight directly from Shanghai to Jiujiang, but he was notified that due to continuous heavy rains, the plane was suspended. Even the train was impassable because many sections of the road were washed out.
Xiao Qian gritted his teeth and simply set off by car, which was more convenient on the road.
Traveling on a rainy day was not a good time after all, and the speed could not be compared with previous days. By the time he arrived in Jiujiang, it was already the end of June.
This is the most urgent time to fight floods. As soon as we entered the city, we could feel the tremendous air pressure.
There were pools of water on the road, even waist deep in many places. Before they had gone far, three vehicles in their convoy broke down.
Leaving people to repair on their own, Xiao Qian hurriedly hurried along. When he arrived at the material storage warehouse, he felt calm.
When we first stored the materials here, we had already anticipated the problem of flood prevention, so we specially found a warehouse at a high location.
As a result, the city was flooded everywhere, but it was relatively dry here.
The person in charge of the Starlight Sect here is a middle-aged man named Feng Jiyun. He works very steadily and arranges everything in an orderly manner.
"Mr. Xiao, we have provided 20,000 woven bags to the front line, which has greatly helped alleviate the disaster. At present, supplies from other places have begun to gather here, so I thought, don't touch the things in our hands.
If you ever get nervous, you can help."
Xiao Qian nodded, approving of his approach.
In terms of large-scale material allocation, the state will naturally make overall plans. For scattered help like theirs, we can only seize the opportunity and check for deficiencies.
As he was talking here, the phone rang suddenly. After Feng Jiyun answered it, his expression changed drastically.
"Quick, prepare the woven bag and send it to the front immediately. Pack more and fill it up."
Looking back, he explained the situation to Xiao Qian.
"I called just now and said that the embankments of Xiuhe River have burst. If it cannot be blocked, floods will flood into the city. A large number of woven bags are urgently needed. I will send them over right now."
Xiao Qian grabbed him.
"You stay here and take command, and I will send it off myself."
Feng Jiyun was startled.
"Mr. Xiao, it's dangerous over there."
Xiao Qian's bluffing face was really scary.
"I didn't see so many people. What danger could there be?"
After saying that, there was no room for doubt. He directly asked people to get in the car, drove out of the warehouse in a mighty manner, and rushed straight to the scene of the incident.
Xiuhe River is located in the south of Jiujiang City, parallel to the Yangtze River, and eventually merges into Poyang Lake. It is a branch of Poyang Lake, the largest freshwater lake in China.
Normally, this river has a sparse flow, is tepid, and is of little interest. But during this flood season, it has become a knife in the heads of the people of Jiujiang.
The terrain of Gan Province is high in the south and low in the north. The rivers in the province basically flow northward, passing through Poyang Lake and finally flowing into the Yangtze River.
To be honest, this geographical environment is really a time bomb in years when floods occur.
When rushing to the scene of the embankment burst, Xiao Qian was thinking wildly.
If there are sufficient technical means and capabilities, this situation may be alleviated by digging an artificial river from the Wuyi Mountains so that the rivers in Gan Province can flow through Fujian Province and have another way to enter the sea.
Of course, this was really just random thoughts, and he didn't tell anyone about it.
Hurrying along slowly and hurriedly, it took more than four hours for the group to reach the place.
As soon as she got off the car, Xiao Qian was shocked by the scene in front of her.
I saw a hole in a dike in the distance that was more than ten meters long. The turbid flood sloped down from this slope, roaring like a dragon, and quickly spread towards the distant land.
On both sides of the breach, countless green figures lined up in long lines, extending all the way to the breach. These green figures were all working hard, but the roar of the flood was suppressed by the loud chanting.
Where are the inconspicuous people here?
This is clearly the Qiancheng of the country.
While he was sighing here, several tired figures came from a distance. Although they could be seen wearing military uniforms, they were covered in mud and were all in pieces.
Although it was still raining, these people did not hold umbrellas. As a result, the rain poured on them and the mud flowed along the skirts of their clothes.
"Who is in charge here?"
Suddenly hearing this voice, Xiao Qian's energy perked up and she was inexplicably surprised.
"Uncle Feng, is that you?"
There was silence for a moment, and then a burly figure ran and shouted.
"Ouch, Xiaoqian, why are you here?"
It was none other than Feng Zhiyang, whom I hadn’t seen for a long time.
