Chapter 1697 The Rainstorm Disaster in Fu County ([-])
Finally, the weather cleared up for a few days, and the stagnant water that hadn’t receded for several days slowly disappeared. It happened to be the last day of the seven-day free water collection. The people in Zhuang are really good at pinching and counting.

As the stagnant water receded, the small medicine cakes were naturally no longer distributed for free, and the people became busy saving crops and cleaning up the mud on the streets and yards.

And, take the small medicine cakes saved in the past few days to the county town and sell them, and exchange some money to buy urgently needed things at home.

The villagers in Baifugang did not participate in the whole process. They also distributed plague-repelling medicine cakes, but they kept them for their own use, and the places where poultry and livestock were raised had long used this kind of small medicine cakes. They were used to them, so they were not like other villages and towns The common people want to keep some good things like that and sell them for money.

The small medicine cakes sold in the county are selling very well, but the people in one town and two villages sell them together, so the price is naturally lowered. This is because there is Qizhuang's name on the wrapping paper, and it is only accepted when it attracts attention. But the medicine cake itself is free, so these people don't care how expensive it is, just change it for some money.

People think that life will return to normal after the weather clears, but it doesn’t. The yamen knows that many villages and towns in the suburbs of the county are flooded, and this year’s autumn harvest will be reduced. I understand, I will only follow the experience of my ancestors to live day by day.

Just like that, after three or five days of clearing, there was another heavy rainstorm, which was heavier than the previous typhoon. This time happened to be Qi Ke's "departure" on his way to Fu County.

When the heavy rain turned from heavy rain to moderate rain, and finally when the light rain turned cloudy, Qi Ke was less than two days away from the destination. That is, the day before yesterday, the rain around Baifu Harbor stopped completely.
The final content of the briefing is that the first town and the second village, which had been flooded once before, have fallen into a more serious waterlogging situation at this time, and the yamen can no longer take care of there, because there is a more serious situation in the southern county. They are all mobilizing troops to guard the county.

To the south of the county, Zhang County, which belongs to the southern boundary, where the typhoon landed last time, the houses and farmland were completely destroyed, causing a large number of civilians to be displaced. The local disaster relief was ineffective, and the civilians became refugees.

It coincided with the local autumn harvest season, and the refugee brigade moved northward, getting closer to the southern border of Fuxian County day by day.

The Fu County Yamen responded quickly, knowing that the situation in the county was not good, so they did not waste time, and asked for help from the Qianhu Office in time. Temporary camps were set up in the county, and layers of refusal horses were placed to prevent most of the thousands of refugees from entering the county from official roads.

Qi Ke turned off the briefing, feeling indescribable.

Zhao Lin didn't wait for her to recover, and directly opened the real-time screen on the side of Baifu Harbor, and contacted the deputies guarding the farmland and water sources.

The picture seen through them is more intuitive.

Except for Baifu Harbor, where everything is normal, another town and three villages really look like they have been flooded. Seeing that the crops that are about to be harvested were wiped out by two heavy rains, the farmland became a flood country.

The torrential rain that came just before the typhoon made landfall ended in one day. Except for the stagnant water, the food could still be kept a little. The heavy rain for several days later became the last straw that broke the camel's camel.
