I was the best old lady in ancient times

Chapter 534 Evacuation
"My lord, Old Guo is back!"

Just when Huang Xueshu was praying secretly in his heart, he heard the master come to report.

"what?
How can he come back? "

Obviously Guo Shihai has only left for a few hours with the letter he wrote asking for help?

"grown ups."

Guo Shihai strode in from the outside, and clasped his fist at Huang Xueshu.

"What's going on here, why are you still in the county?"

Huang Xueshu was startled and angry, and couldn't help scolding.

Guo Shihai heard the county magistrate's questioning, and after a moment of silence, he asked in a deep voice.

"My lord, is the dam upstream of our county in danger of bursting?"

Hearing Guo Shihai's question, Huang Xueshu was startled.

"How did you find out?"

"My lord, why don't the people of the whole county be moved to a higher place?
The torrential rain is getting bigger and bigger, if the embankment breaks, what will all the people in Luo'an County do? "

Seeing that Huang Xueshu didn't deny it, Guo Shihai's heart sank, and he couldn't help asking with a slightly raised voice.

"Guo Shihai, you are presumptuous."

Master Qiu, who was originally passing the message to the county magistrate, immediately jumped out, stood in front of Huang Xueshu and angrily reprimanded Guo Shihai.

However, a look of shame flashed across Huang Xueshu's face, and he stretched out his hand to stop Qiu Rongsheng, preventing him from pointing his nose at Guo Shihai and scolding him again.

"I also want the people in Luo'an County to be transferred, but without the warrant of Mr. Futai, if I want to transfer the people in the entire county, what should I do if it causes panic?
What's more, if the common people are afraid and run to the Fucheng, what should they do if it will cause a burden on the Fucheng?
Also, the dam upstream has not yet broken.

If the official asked the people to move out of their homes, nothing happened.

When the time comes, the common people will complain.

Master Futai will pursue this matter, who will bear the responsibility?
This official is also afraid, I dare not gamble, there is a high hall on this official, there are wives and children under this official, and there are countless clansmen.

That's why I specially sent the three of you to Fucheng, and what was written in the letter is that I begged Lord Futai to show me the grace to issue a warrant. "

Huang Xueshu's face was extremely ashamed, but extremely helpless.

"But why did you come back again?"

Originally, I thought that the upstream dam would be able to support Guo Shihai and the others when they came back.

Now, I'm afraid it's hopeless.

Guo Shihai didn't expect that the county magistrate still had such worries.

After thinking about it, this worry is not unfounded.

If there is nothing wrong with the upstream dam, then the county magistrate will transfer the people of the entire Luo'an County for no reason, and who will be responsible for the losses caused?

"My lord, please don't worry, the subordinate has already found someone to deliver that letter to Fucheng.

The subordinates also know where the adults are worried!
However, regardless of whether the upstream dam will burst or not, it is better to arrange for the people to transfer first.

I believe that as long as you explain the situation clearly to the people, they should be able to understand. "

Guo Shihai frowned, remembering what the old lady in the ruined temple said, gritted his teeth, and persuaded the county magistrate.

"What you said is simple, if the people are transferred, do you know how much responsibility the county magistrate will bear?"

As the master of Luo'an County, Qiu Rongsheng was very kind and approachable to these brothers in the government office.

Hearing Guo Shihai's words today, he was so angry that he wanted to jump up and asked directly.

"Rongsheng, stop talking."

Huang Xueshu heard Guo Shihai's words and Qiu Rongsheng's questioning. After a moment of silence, he said to Master Qiu.

"Listen to Guo Shihai, send out all the people in the county government, organize people to go to the county, and evacuate the people in the low-lying villages outside the county.

If nothing happens, then God blesses the world, it's the best.

If Mr. Futai wants to blame me, I will accept all the responsibilities. "

"grown ups!"

Master Qiu didn't expect the county magistrate to say that, and his face was full of worry.

"Rongsheng, can you trust me?"

"Naturally believe it."

Master Qiu didn't expect the county magistrate to ask himself a question, so he quickly replied.

"Since you trust me, my concerns are naturally justified.

While there is still time, evacuate the people to a higher place as soon as possible.

For the past two days, this officer has been unable to sleep peacefully every night.

Because the official knows that one of his decisions may affect the people in the entire Luo'an County.

If the official did not evacuate the people in time, causing them to destroy their homes, how can the official sleep peacefully in the future? "

Hearing what the county magistrate said, Mr. Qiu, who was about to persuade him, immediately shut up.

After a while, he let out a long sigh and turned his head to go out.

When he reached the door, he turned his head and glared at Guo Shihai who was still standing there.

"Didn't you hear what your lord said, all the people in the government office are going to organize the evacuation of the common people!

You stupid big man, why are you still standing here in a daze? "

After hearing this, Guo Shihai hurriedly followed.

Guo Shihe and Liang Xing, who went back first, spent a lot of effort to persuade their family members to leave the county town and prepare to stay on a higher mountain.

It's just that the women in the family are reluctant to do this, and feel it is a pity that way.

They kept procrastinating until Master Qiu ordered people to go door-to-door to persuade the common people in the county to move, but the two of them hadn't packed their things yet.

Guo Shihai managed to take the time to go back, and when he saw the large carts full of things, he suddenly became anxious.

"What are you doing with these things?

Just bring warm clothes, oilcloth, pots and bowls for cooking, as well as food and silver.

Remove everything else.

Guo Shihe, within an hour, took all the people out of the gate of the county seat, do you understand? "

Because of Guo Shihai's stern words, the people who had been procrastinating all of a sudden speeded up a lot.

Although I didn't bring a lot of things according to Guo Shihai's words, I still need to bring a lot more than what Guo Shihai said!
However, they really left the county gate within an hour.

After coming out, Guo Shihe felt uneasy and confused for a moment.

"Brother Liang, where are we going now?"

Although there are indeed high mountains on the edge of the county seat, it is not convenient for them to go up the mountain with so many carriages, which makes him a little worried. What if the mountain on the county seat is also flooded after the dam breaks?

It's better to stay far away from here, so as not to suffer.

After pondering for a moment, Liang Xing pointed to the direction they came from before, and then said to Guo Shihe.

"Go to the ruined temple where we took shelter from the rain, which is some distance from the county town.

Most importantly, at least one tile can cover the head. "

Although the female relatives could sit in the carriage to hide from the rain, but they were riding horses, even though they were wearing coir raincoats, they couldn't be drenched in the rain all the time.

After all, if you accidentally caught a cold, it would be fatal!
