Chapter 297: Back-feeding Fujian Province

It's dark, and the wind is howling!

The dense clouds in the sky, like a ferocious behemoth, tore the whole world recklessly!

Standing in the office of the Warlord’s Mansion, Chen Zhongji looked at the scene outside the window blankly, feeling helpless.

How can the power of heaven and earth be overwhelmed by manpower!

The wind is whistling and circling, the wind and rain are like a boiling pot, and the world is in torment!

The overwhelming gust of wind, wherever it passes, pulls up the roots of the trees, blows the roofs, and turns the crops into ugly and bare... This typhoon is judged to be at least fourteen by modern technology!

Someone came into his office, and Chen Zhongji turned to see that it was the financial officer Chen Hebin.

Seeing his worried look, Chen Hebin comforted him: "Dong Chen, we have done everything we should and can do. Don't worry too much. Let's have a cup of tea!"

Chen Zhongji nodded, beckoned him to sit down, and everyone had tea together.

Yes, I did everything I could.

The Southeast Prefecture established the Meteorological Observatory, which is a branch organization of the military hydrogeological exploration team. Although they do not have advanced scientific instruments, they rely on accumulated data and experience to make forecasts three days in advance before the arrival of the typhoon. .

The typhoon prevention plan was immediately activated. Fishing boats entered the port and fishermen went ashore to take shelter. All units and towns were prepared for typhoon prevention. All officials were dispatched to check the typhoon prevention situation.

With doors and windows closed and warehouses closed, people moved from simple houses (there are no old houses in the Southeast) to a safe place, and people in low-lying houses were also moved to schools, temples, and factories in time, with proper arrangements.

I have to say that the buildings in the Southeast Mansion are good. The newly built schools are all solid buildings, which can be used for temporary resettlement of the people.

Suspend work and classes everywhere, prepare water, food and fuel, and do not go out lightly.

...

Officials at all levels are very proactive, because the assessment of the Southeast Government's official government is that "the lives of people are greater than the sky". If the people die abnormally under the rule, they will be blamed.

Compared with the government over the sea, there is more warmth!

Chen Zhongji and Chen Hebin also drank tea at ease.

Although the typhoon is fierce, when the typhoon finally crosses the border, when the tail of the typhoon is still there, officials are dispatched immediately to check the loss, organize personnel to carry out rescue and disaster relief, and restore property losses.

It is impossible for crops and fruit trees to be harvested within this year. The rice and cash crops that were the mainstay of the Southeastern Government are all over, the rice falls and the sugar cane breaks.

Levees burst, houses collapsed, ships sank... serious property losses.

However, the senior officials of the Southeast Mansion were a little relieved.

Less than a hundred people died in such a big natural disaster, and half of them were fishermen who didn't have time to return. It is a miracle that thousands of people died in such a big natural disaster before!

Then started production self-rescue, cleared the land, and actively replanted crops, everything went according to order and in order.

It seemed plain and unremarkable.

...

At the turn of summer and autumn, a typhoon blew through Taiwan and hit Fujian Province.

This typhoon is so huge that the entire Fujian province is affected by it.

With wind and rain, the typhoon swept across the counties, villages and fields, wherever it passed, the eyes were full of greed, a place of devastation!

...

The governor of Fuzhou's Yamen, the governor of a province, the governor of Zou Weilian frowned, watching the post-disaster report.

You don’t have to think about the agricultural harvest of the entire Fujian province this year. This time everyone really wants to eat sweet potatoes! The rice is irretrievably hit by the typhoon, but the sweet potatoes in the ground can be eaten.

Of course, the governor does not need to eat sweet potatoes. The question is what does the general public in Fujian eat?

Their houses were damaged and collapsed in a large area, their property was severely damaged, and their grains could not be kept.

It is conceivable that the price of food will rise sharply after the disaster, and the serious problem lies in front of Governor Zou, and the people must be fed!

Rely on the official warehouse for disaster relief?

It is a pity that the official warehouse in Fujian Province is empty. It is not that Governor Zou is embezzling, but that he used the official warehouse to support other disaster-stricken areas in the country.

Entering the Little Ice Age, there were frequent famines in various parts of the Ming Empire. Under a game of chess across the country, Governor Zou also made a statement to the disaster-stricken areas outside the province.

Unexpectedly, the official warehouse could not cope with such a huge disaster.

A thought appeared in his mind and was immediately dismissed by him.

In the past, Fujian Province was hit by a disaster, so there is no need to worry about it, just send the victims to Taiwan.

In the past, the government was afraid of causing the siege of the refugees and the dead. It was left to the victims to cross Taiwan. However, Governor Zou was not the previous governor of Xiong. He was upright and well aware of the importance of population. The Southeast government was short of population and sent people across the sea , Just in line with their hearts, enhanced these rebellious powers!

Those corrupt officials were bought by the Southeast Mansion, but Governor Zou would not do such a thing!

He discussed with Master Zhong on how to deal with the current difficulties, and the method was nothing more than reporting to the court, but Governor Zou did not have much hope for how much money the court would receive for disaster relief.

It is planned to use Fankuku silver to buy in the Lianghu area, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Guangdong and Guangxi. While still preparing, bad news came one after another. Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Liangguang were also hit by typhoons, and the land was soaked in water. As for the two lakes, transport A large amount of food supports the north, and there should be no surplus.

Mr. Zhong came to see Governor Zou and told him: "The price of food in Southeast Mansion will not rise after the disaster!"

Zou Weilian said in surprise; "How is this possible?"

He knew that in Fuzhou alone, food prices had changed three times a day after the disaster, and food prices were rising like monkeys.

"Does the governor know how much food is stored in the two new granaries built in the Southeastern government at the beginning of the year?" Mr. Zhong has a lot of affection in Taiwan and knows a lot of information.

"How many?"

"Almost ten million stones, although not necessarily collected, but the difference is not far!" Mr. Zhong told Governor Zou.

Ten million stones!

Zou Weilian was shocked to hear.

"Furthermore, the rent in the Southeast Mansion was only 20%, and no more than one cent was not collected. The folks have plenty of grain. As far as I know, the Southeast Mansion has not even used the grain in the official warehouse! The grain in the official warehouse has not been released. Go to the market."

There is no food instability, and food is determined. The more there is no food, the more people will receive the food. The price of food has soared. However, the southeast government has rich food reserves and fleets of ships transporting food from foreign countries and other places. Everyone is too lazy to grab food.

Why do you grab food? There is so much space at home?

Mr. Zhong suggested: "You can ask Taiwan Guardian for help. I believe they will definitely support the disaster relief in this province!"

"Then might as well give it a try!" Zou Weilian said not quite sure.

...

Mr. Zhong took Zou Weilian’s letter to see Chen Zhongji across the sea. The two knew each other. In the past, when Governor Xiong was here, Mr. Zhong took care of many things on his behalf, and Chen Zhongji was responsible for the reception. You don’t need to do too much. polite.

After opening Zou Weilian’s letter, Governor Zou was very polite, saying that Fujian Province was affected by the disaster, and he hoped that he could buy rice at a reasonable price for disaster relief, and asked the Taiwan Guardian for his strong support.

"Xiangzi was hit by the disaster~www.wuxiaspot.com~ How can we just sit back and ignore it!" Chen Zhongji said immediately that the large batch of Chen rice (previously surviving) was about 100,000 shi for donation, and there was another batch of 20 in existence. Wanshi’s dried sweet potatoes were also given as gifts, and rice was sold to Fujian province at a fair price for disaster relief.

At the same time, a batch of medicinal materials, bedclothes, living utensils (bowls and basins, etc.), production tools (hoes, shovel, etc.), and two thousand tents were also sent.

When the news came out, people from the southeast government immigrants from Fujian Province immediately organized to donate supplies, and there were also a large number of dried sweet potatoes with rice noodles.

So, Mr. Zhong returned with a full load, and Zou Weilian understood that the family on both sides of the strait, blood is thicker than water, and replaced with a post-golden. It would be strange if you didn't take advantage of the fire and rob you.

Even if there is no disaster, he will beat you. No, the Dalinghe, which was being built by the soldiers of the Later Jin Army, surrounded Zu Dashou!
