Crossing the old lady of the farm gate

Chapter 189 Flood Disaster 3
"Magistrate Gao, in fact, this is a natural disaster. We cannot avoid it, but some casualties can still be avoided. I can only blame the county magistrate of Zhoushui County for being too incompetent. If it is like you, Move the people in the villages and towns to higher ground as soon as possible, even if the village is flooded, things have already been moved out, and the loss is not that great, and after the flood subsides, we can start to go back and rebuild their homes."

"Master Ding, I have already made arrangements for the affected villages. Now they all have surplus food to eat, but the villages are flooded, and they may need to apply for a batch of money to rebuild their homes."

Ding Wenxuan nodded, "This is all as it should be. It's just that your side was not seriously affected by the flood. It just destroyed some homes. The imperial court can't allocate much money to you."

"I understand what you said. Don't worry, I don't have any dissatisfaction. I still focus on this side."

Gao Ze asked Chen Yu and Bai Lan who were beside him, "Master Chen, Mrs. Chen, why are you here at this time?"

"Our old couple learned about the flood in Zhoushui County at home, so we just wanted to come and see if there is anything we need help with."

Ding Wenxuan: "Mr. Chen and his wife have really helped Zhoushui County a lot. Just now, the grain merchants raised prices on the ground and raised all the grain to high prices. Fortunately, Mr. Chen donated a batch of grain to save the lives of the people. Urgent."

Master Gao Ze looked at Bai Lan and Chen Yu in surprise. Although the Chen family had a little money, it was really surprising that they donated such a large batch of food.There are quite a few wealthy families like the Chen family in Northern Qi, but no one offered to donate food and materials to the Chen family. "Master Chen, Mrs. Chen, I didn't expect you to have such a chivalrous heart. After the flood recedes, the people of Zhoushui County must thank you."

"It's no need to thank you, this is what we should do."

Chen Yu suddenly remembered and said, "Master Ding, County Magistrate Gao. Personally, I prefer to read those history books. I read it in a travel book. It said that after the flood, there will be a plague in the place. It is because the sanitation is not handled well. The reason. I just remind you that if there is no such thing, it would be better. If something like this happens, it can be prevented in advance."

Ding Wenxuan nodded to show that he knew. It is not that he has not seen previous cases of such things. There are records in some historical books. In some places, there have just been major floods, and all the animal carcasses washed away by the floods were left in the fields. Or the corners that cannot be seen, if the hygiene is not clean, it will definitely make people sick.

"Master Chen, thank you for your reminder. I will pay more attention to this matter. After the flood, I will urge everyone to do a good job of defense."

"Master Ding, if there is anything else that needs help, you can tell us, we will help everything we can."

Ding Wenxuan said to Gao Ze next to him: "You handled the flood very well this time, but you heard what Master Chen said just now, and it has also been affected there. Remember to tell the village chief that you must take good care of the flood and clean it up. Well, don’t expect that there will be no casualties due to the flood, but the plague will occur due to poor sanitation, then it will cause trouble for you, and I can’t protect you.”

"My lord, don't worry, I have already arranged all these. After the flood submerged the villages, after the flood dissipated, I will definitely let the people do a good job of sanitation, and all the houses will be rebuilt."

"Just remember."
