Wearing a county magistrate to build infrastructure

"My lord, the front hall of the county yamen has collapsed on two sides, including the offices where several adults work and the filing room. However, all the files before have been sent to the mountain. Except for the objects inside being smashed, everything else is fine."

Fang Muyuan calculated the loss of the county office, which is actually nothing compared to some badly damaged houses in the county.

"The county government office is indeed old. This time the flood destroyed the front hall, so we should plan to renovate the county government office."

What Tang Zisheng thought was that this would be the political institution of the city in the future. The appearance of the county government in the past was indeed unusable, and repairing it now saves effort in the future.

"Does the back mansion also need to be repaired?"

"Of course I need it, but first we need to fix the front hall before we consider the rear mansion." Of course, we need to repair it together, but he hasn't found a house yet, so he should keep it for now.

Hearing this, Fang Muyuan knew what he was saying, and then asked, "Master, is the composition of the repaired county government still the same as before?"

"It's not the same. I will discuss the details of starting construction with the workshop. Now that the outer city cannot be repaired immediately, it should not be difficult to find workers."

"It's really not difficult. As soon as Xiaguan returned to the county, someone came to ask Xiaguan when the construction of the outer city will resume. Presumably many people have suffered serious disasters this time and are in urgent need of money."

Tang Zisheng shook his head, "There is no rush, how much food is left in the county?"

"My lord, do you want to send some food to the victims first?" Fang Muyuan quickly calculated the amount of food reported by the people under his hand, "In this way, the county can make up some food, but not much, and the daily consumption of the barracks is extremely high." Seriously, all parts of Xizhou have been hit by floods, and food prices have risen, so we need to save more."

"If you can spare some for a while, you can arrange some people to go to each village. It is true that the serious situation is sent there first to solve the urgent need, but you must discuss it with the village chiefs." Otherwise, some of the villagers will know This family has food, but that family does not, and it is easy to cause troubles in vain.

This is the truth.

"Yes, my lord."

Tang Zisheng waited for Fang Muyuan to leave, and sent other people from the sixth room. The military room went to the villages with Miao inspector to arrest all those who caused troubles during the flood period. As for the follow-up, it was the execution room. thing.

And the workshop is the busiest, the flood receded, and the houses in the county were all collapsed, even the county government was not spared, Tang Zisheng called the workshop here for the repair of the county government.

As for the official room and the ceremony room, they are the most leisurely among the six rooms. They only need to rearrange the messy and carried away books, and temporarily carry them to the empty house in the back residence of the county government.

"Young master, the back mansion has been cleaned up. Are we going to pick up Mr. Xu?" Tang Mo deserved to be Tang Zisheng's right-hand man. Although he was a long-term follower, the growth in the past few months has doubled.

At least from Tang Zisheng's point of view, the young man who followed him to Cang'er County and couldn't even lift a heavy burden had grown up now.

"Go ahead and prepare."

Although there are still a lot of things waiting for him to solve one by one, but thinking of Qingcheng coming to live with him, most of the boredom in his heart dissipated.

-

Xu Qingcheng's side is still on the mountain. Although the water level in the village has receded, the road down the mountain is slippery now, and most of the stone slabs that were built before were washed away by the water.

He knew exactly what the house at the bottom of the mountain would look like, so instead of risking going back to see the flooded house, he might as well stay on the mountain and wait for the road to dry in the sun before going directly to the county government for a lunch box.

It's just that the first batch of soldiers who went down the mountain to inspect came back. They hurried to Xu Qingcheng's side, with a solemn expression, "Mr. Xu."

"Did someone have a dispute at the bottom of the mountain?" Xu Qingcheng put down what he was doing. Before the people went down the mountain, soldiers patrolled the village before letting people enter the village. Now that the soldiers came back in a hurry, it was probably because something happened down the mountain.

"No, we found two corpses in the village when we went down the mountain to inspect them. They were already soaked. They seemed to be people who didn't catch up before the heavy rain."

"How come?" Everyone may only know the approximate number of people in the village.But there are only people from Baihe Village here. If someone in the village failed to come up during the heavy rain, the village chief would definitely know.

But according to the news he got from the village chief, there were not a few villagers in Baihe Village during the rainy period.

"It may be a beggar or a refugee who doesn't know the news of the rainstorm going up the mountain."

It's not impossible, no matter how well Zisheng arranges it, it's only limited to the people in the village and county. If they live in the mountains, there's nothing they can do about it.

"You can have physical contact with them when you are investigating." This is what Xu Qingcheng is most worried about this time. Flooding and epidemic diseases, although this is not something he can deal with, but You Zisheng reminded him that he is also with Dr. Xu After learning the relevant knowledge, this dead body soaked in the water may be the root of the disease, and it must not be touched at will. "No, the county magistrate has ordered before that after the flood is over, if We will not let us approach any corpses in the village, and someone will deal with them at that time, it’s just that”

The soldier who spoke hesitated, for a moment, they were soldiers who strictly observed military discipline.But the people in the village don't understand this, and there was no order from above, so they are not good at raising alarmist words.

"Is someone clamoring to remove the body?"

"Well, two corpses died in a farmer's house. The family went back, and when they saw the corpses, they planned to carry them out, but we stopped them."

"Just stop it, I'll go down the mountain with you." Xu Qingcheng is worried, there are corpses in that place, even if the corpses are moved away, it is not easy to live in them, and it needs to be wiped with vinegar. OK.

The two soldiers who came to report were relieved.

Xu Yingle also came out at this time, "I'll go down too. Didn't you say that boy Tang Yuding came back to pick us up? I'll go down and wait and don't bother him to go up the mountain."

"Well, it's just that the mountain road is slippery. Daddy has to be careful when going down." Xu Qingcheng put the bag he had packed on his back on his back and told his father.

"I know."

The mountain road is wet and slippery, but the sun has been out for several hours, and now it is not easy to fall as long as you walk carefully.

Xu Qingcheng came down from the mountain, put his things on the stone mill at the entrance of the village, and followed two soldiers to the farmer's corpse.

When he arrived, the original farmhouse didn't make much trouble, and sat far away from the door, surrounded by a circle of soldiers, but maybe it was because the trouble was over and no one paid attention to it, so he would be tired and rest.

"Brother Xu, you are here, please tell these soldiers quickly, there is nothing in our house, the water will finally stop, we are still waiting to clean up the house and live in it."

It was an elderly man who spoke, and he was probably worried that he would not be able to go home after the rain stopped.

"Uncle, you, your aunt, and your younger siblings should stay in the cave for the night. There is no way to live here for the time being, and there are dead people in it. After the flood, there will be plagues in the place where there are dead people. If you don't pay attention to your brother My sister is infected, and it is not easy to cure."

Xu Qingcheng articulated the seriousness of the matter. Soldiers would not say these things. First, they were afraid of making alarmist remarks without an order from their superiors. Second, they only received orders not to approach the corpse at the beginning. clear.

"Blade, Brother Xu, are you telling the truth?" The old man was taken aback. They had never had a plague in Baihe Village.But at this age, he has seen and heard a lot, and the plague can kill people.

"Well, it's true, so if the corpse is moved away, it will take some time for your uncle's house to be inhabited again."

"No, no, no." The old man waved his hands again and again, but he couldn't say that he didn't want this house after looking at his own house.

Apart from the fields, the houses are the most reassuring for these peasant households. No matter whether they stutter or not, at least they have a place to live at night so that they don’t have to sleep in the open. Now that there is such a thing in the house, it’s troublesome to live or not.

"Uncle, it's not that scary. This house can still accommodate people. After the people in the county deal with it, you will be fine if you bring your family to live in." Xu Qingcheng comforted.

"It's good to be able to live with people, it's good to be able to live with people." The old man wiped the corners of his eyes, pulled something aside, and said to his wife and children beside him, "We will stay in the mountain for a few days, and we will come back after the county has dealt with it. "

Xu Qingcheng breathed a sigh of relief, and watched them leave. The soldiers in the cave hadn't withdrawn yet, and the porridge was still distributed every day, but it took some time to take care of their house and the up and down of the fields.

"You guys also stand outside and come here. The corpses found in the village will be disposed of and burned together, and I will ask someone to continue to look around the village to see if there are any other corpses."

Xu Qingcheng was afraid that there would be people rushing down from the upper reaches, so he had to nip the danger in the cradle to make people feel at ease.

Tang Zisheng rushed over a quarter of an hour later, arranged for people to put on clothes soaked in vinegar and protective equipment, and carried the corpses outside the village to be burned.As for the places where the corpses had been lying, they were also wiped and swept with vinegar and spirits.

Once is not enough, at least four or five days at the sprinkler.After all, there is no technology for detecting bacteria in ancient times, and the alcohol concentration of the spirits used for disinfection and disinfection is not high, so it is better to do it several times to make people feel more at ease.

"I'm afraid there are corpses in other villages." Xu Qingcheng was worried, and he was even more afraid that there were corpses in the river now.

Although they drink well water, they use river water to wash clothes on weekdays, and they don't know the situation upstream. If floating corpses are found in the river while fetching water, the situation may not be optimistic.

"Normal, except in other counties, there are always people who don't know the situation and rest outside the ruined temple without being reminded by the yamen. Even in the county, I also met two people who went up the mountain after heavy rain for several days."

Or because there were few people in ancient times and the transportation information was not well developed.Although I know there must be casualties in the flood, but I can't help but feel a little bit embarrassed when I actually see it.

Xu Qingcheng's mood also became depressed. This is the case in all the places where they have made full preparations. The situation in Shunhe Mansion and even other places in Xizhou may be more serious.

Tang Zisheng didn't want to talk about it anymore, so he talked about the clan elder, "Did Qingcheng discover anything in the past two days?"

"Yes, I asked Brother Mu to inquire about the children in the hometown of a few clans, and asked when these clan elders met Wang Dawanger and his group, and I found out that it was the clan elder surnamed Wang in the village, who happened to be that person. The one who said that he was going to be private, and then I asked the clan elder surnamed Wang and which other clan elders he was close to, and I knew it in my heart."

"Since we have confirmed the candidate, we will send someone to watch over it, so there is no need to waste time on it." Tang Zisheng took the man's hand, "It's been busy for so long, it's time to go back, Uncle Xu is waiting in the carriage It's been a long time with us."

"Is the county government ready?" Xu Qingcheng came all the way, but saw the houses in Baihe Village, but there were not many houses that could be lived in.

"Well, speaking of it, I was lucky. Many houses in the county collapsed, even the county government office was not spared. However, the houses on the county government side only collapsed a few rooms in the front hall, but the back mansion was intact. I let the workers I have seen it, there is no major problem, you can continue to live there."
