Reborn Peasant Girl: I Rely on Carpentry as Minister of Industry

This is a small town. Most of the people in the town are flooded by disaster victims, all of them in ragged clothes. They dragged their families and huddled under other people's eaves to hide from the rain. Many people were shivering from the cold.

Some people even brought some belongings, so they built crooked sheds in the corner.

At this time, most of the merchants closed their doors tightly and did not dare to open up their business for fear that the disaster victims would loot them.

And those who dare to open the door to do business are some powerful merchants, and at the same time, there are a large number of guards in the store.

It is conceivable how expensive things are for sale, especially food, and there are very few shops that are still open.

The mayor opened a granary to release grain, and he has been serving porridge at the gate of the yamen for the past few days, but there is only one meal a day, and the porridge contains [-]% of the water, which can hang people's lives.

But this is already his greatest ability.

Roads were blocked by floods, and there were few opportunities for them to seek help from the county or other places.

Such a large flood can be overcome by people, but supplies cannot be transported no matter what.

Sudden floods over the years have caused the mayor to deal with it in a hurry, and his hair has turned white overnight. At the moment, he is still organizing people to rescue the disaster and check the water situation.

These situations are what Cheng Dong's brothers said.

Chengdong's brother, called Chengxi Chengbei Chengnan, is really easy to remember, and he can tell at a glance that he is a member of a certain organization.

When Cheng Dong took Jiang Changan and the others to find Cheng Nan and the others in the corner, they were so hungry that their eyes turned green.

Jiang Chang'an brought them into the inn, they wanted to stay anyway, so they called for food.

Damn it, the three men just killed a few pots of soft and glutinous rice porridge, as if they had been hungry for several years.

The inns in the small town are very expensive at this time, except for some wealthy households and passing wealthy businessmen, few people can afford to live there.

Therefore, Jiang Chang'an and the others who came late have a place to stay, but if they continue to eat like this, they may not be able to afford an inn either.

At this time, the mayor came to the door, and of course he was looking for Cheng Dong and the others.

Because a few young people have military tokens, they can participate in local government affairs at a critical time when human life is at stake, at least their opinions should be considered in detail.

"I heard that Master Cheng is back, how is the situation in Zhuzi Village?"

Zhuzi Village is a low-lying valley. If the evacuation is not timely, the whole village will probably be finished.

If people in a village really died, then he wouldn't have to be the mayor, so the mayor was really worried and started asking questions before anyone sat down.

Speaking of Zhuzi Village, Chengdong's sense of surprise has not weakened after several days of precipitation.

He felt that even if he didn't bring the news, as long as Jiang Changan and Li Shushen were there, Zhuzi Village would still be safe and sound.

"It's good there, the villagers moved all their belongings to the highlands, and built more than a dozen bamboo houses, so they can live in the mountains in the future without having to move back to their hometowns.

The village plans to dig holes to divert the water from the upper reaches of the village, and use the low-lying areas as rivers, so that terraced fields can be reclaimed in the future.

Build waterfalls, build inns, and weave bamboo furniture for passing merchants, so you don't have to worry about the future.

And all of this is the planning and construction of Chang'an. "Chengdong finally recommended Jiang Changan to the mayor.

The mayor was in a daze, not understanding what Cheng Dong was talking about?You are asked to evacuate the villagers, are you doing construction?Off the spectrum.

The mayor's IQ online, since Jiang Changan's contribution is the result, he must be treated with courtesy first of all, no matter how young they are, as long as they are capable.

So he bowed his hands to Jiang Chang'an and Li Shushen before saying, "Tell me carefully."

If a tiny place like Zhuzi Village can really be turned into a blessed place because of a disaster, why can't others?
If the two children disagree, hum!He couldn't afford to kneel for a long time.

Not only the mayor, but even Cheng Nan and the others all slowed down and listened curiously, as well as some guests from other tables.

They seem to have heard something incredible, organic business?

Cheng Dong became more energetic now, and for a while the storyteller possessed his body, and he wanted to talk about the ins and outs of the future, one after another.

How did Zhuzi Village change from a dilapidated place to such a fresh and refined village of hope? The villagers were so happy that they laughed so many teeth out
In the end, the mayor stood up abruptly, and made a big bow to Jiang Changan, "Gao Yi, Master Jiang, thank you Zhang once again on behalf of the folks."

Jiang Changan turned his body slightly, dodged it for a while, bowed back, and chuckled skillfully, "Mayor Zhang, you are welcome, you know, I am also a scholar, after all, I can't escape the world.

All of this is just for merit, and I hope there will be some good colors in the future political review. "

Yes, it's all for fame. How can there be so many noble souls, so don't look for her for things that are not beneficial.

Mayor Zhang paused. He didn't expect Jiang Changan to reveal his purpose, and she was going to take the imperial examination in the future?It is not an exaggeration to say that she has been immersed in officialdom for many years with this kind of human experience.

This person is young, her mind is not simple, and her future achievements may be limitless. The key point is that she is still a girl, which is strange.

Mayor Zhang felt awe in his heart, but what should be entrusted is to trouble others, so those who can do more work.

"Well, the folks in Zhuzi Village are blessed, but people in other places are in trouble.

It's all my fault that the mayor of the town is incompetent. You see, the eaves are full of people, no place to live, no food to drink, and you don't know how long you can last?

Don't be afraid of your jokes, the grain in the yamen has bottomed out, and this year's grain tax has not been collected yet, and there is a flood.

It's all because of my incompetence, which hurts the folks. After that, Mayor Zhang wiped the corners of his tearless eyes with his soaked sleeves.

Jiang Changan's face was calm, and he could see the mayor's intentions at a glance, but, this burden is too huge, wouldn't she have difficulty picking it up?

It wasn't her responsibility in the first place, if she really wanted to interfere more, it's just a matter of doing well, or not doing well?She didn't know Mayor Zhang well, so who could she turn to for reasoning?

"Oh, it's all caused by natural disasters. Who knew that such a thing would happen. I heard from the old villagers that this is the first time that this area has experienced floods. God doesn't give people a way to survive."

Jiang Changan sighed for a long time, he was also very worried, but he didn't take the initiative to take responsibility.

"Who says it's not? I don't know if Master Jiang has a solution? Please help me to let the people survive this natural disaster. I will never forget my deepest feelings, and I will do my best to repay it.

Of course, if the matter is successful, I will write a report and report it. If not, the responsibility and consequences will be borne by me, the mayor of the town, and will not affect you.

Ask Xiaoyou Jiang to help. "Mayor Zhang bowed again, showing the greatest sincerity.

"Yes, Chang'an, if you have a way, help those poor people."

Cheng Nan sighed, it wasn't that he was soft-hearted, but that in the face of natural disasters, the weak and powerless side of human beings was especially revealed. Unless there is no conscience, no one can not sympathize with those victims.

"Well, let's go back and think about an idea, and discuss it first before making a decision." Jiang Changan signaled to Li Shushen.

Of course she has a way, but, she still wants to refer to Li Shushen's opinion, check for the gaps and make up for the omissions for herself, so as to make sure nothing goes wrong.

"Yes, you have traveled a long way, and you really need to take a good rest before you can come up with a good idea.

Then you rest, I'll come back tomorrow. "As long as there is no complete rejection, there is still hope. Mayor Zhang wisely went back.

Cheng Nan and the others, who were full of food and drink, also got a Datong bunk to live in.

They have no money, so they definitely can't let a few children pay to let themselves live in a house. It is a great kindness of the children to have a place to shelter from the rain.

The four of Jiang Changan still asked for a room with front and back rooms, at the price of two taels a day.

The four went back to the room and sat down, Jiang Changan couldn't wait to ask, "Does Shushen have any good ideas?"

Li Shushen chuckled, "I saw that you didn't refuse on the spot, so I guess there is a way? Are you worried that the mayor is unreliable?"

Heh, I was guessed by this kid, "That's right, I'm not in my position, I don't care about it, who knows what troubles will happen after taking care of everything."

Haven't you heard that good people usually get no good rewards?Jiang Changan didn't dare to act blindly.

"Your concerns are also correct, so we don't take care of everything, just assist from the side.

The disaster relief process is nothing more than solving the problem of food and housing for the victims.

Where you live With your technology, you can build a house in a short period of time on any land.

If you eat it..." Li Shushen tapped his fingers on the table and thought about it, Jiang Changan is best at crafts and technology, and she can't conjure food out of thin air.

So, "You probably want to build a boat that can run stably in the flood, and bring back relief supplies elsewhere?"

In this way, food and accommodation for the victims can be solved.

Post-disaster construction is another matter.

Jiang Changan admired for a while, "That's what I thought, are you the roundworm in my stomach? We have become more and more tacit partners."

The flood basically spread along the river, so the places not close to this big river must not be affected by the disaster, right?I think there must be food.

What they currently lack is a few good big ships.

Li Shushen snapped his fingers, and almost missed Jiang Changan's little head, "It's fine as a partner, and it's fine with roundworms.

However, it suddenly occurred to me that we might not have to transport food far away, and it would still be free. "

Li Shu smiled deeply, "Two years ago, the previous county magistrate was dismissed because of the military ration issue.

The war in the northwest was tense, the court was chaotic, the previous county magistrate's grain tax was levied, and the grain that was about to be shipped to the border was tampered with and mixed with a large amount of sand and gravel.

This matter was spotted by the military personnel who came to escort the grain and grass. Just when they were about to settle the account with the county magistrate, the county magistrate replaced the grain without anyone noticing in a short period of time.

The sandy grain disappeared, and the intact grain was safely handed over to the military.

However, it was such a capable and wealthy county magistrate who finally caused cases of embezzlement and corruption, and was finally beheaded. "

This is the cruelty of officialdom, it has nothing to do with right or wrong, only winning or losing.

The last county magistrate was just a victim of the struggle of the forces above.

That's why Li Shushen couldn't wait to think about gaining influence, protecting him and Jiang Chang'an, and his future official career.

"You mean that batch of sandy grain is nearby? Wasn't it submerged by the flood?" Jiang Chang'an clarified for a second.

"Yes, I don't know exactly where it is, I only heard that it is on the nearby mountain, so it shouldn't be submerged, right?

And I believe that with your ability, you can definitely find it, and you can filter out the sandy grain, right? "

If it was Li Shushen, it would have taken him a long time to find food. After all, in his previous life, he only heard that the Tenth Prince's army was forced into the nearby mountains for several days.

But the huge army was not starved to death, it is said that it relied on the batch of sandy grain.

But now that Jiang Changan has the ability to see through, it is different.

And she is so good at making machines, so it's not a problem to make a sieving machine, right?

This is Li Shushen's highest evaluation and recognition of Jiang Changan's technology.

"Well, let's solve the housing problem first, then build a ship to transport grain, and then go out to find that batch of grain.

I just drew a blueprint. I think there should be a lot of carpenters in a town, so I just let them build it.

With so many victims, it is unrealistic to think of a house for each family, so we will build a few large sheds, which can provide shelter from the wind and rain.

The structure is simple, mainly for stability. The beams and columns are made of wood, and the surfaces and walls are covered with oilcloth, which can be easily removed later.

Build a few more ships. If you can't find that batch of food, you can let them go to other places to buy it first.

Then it’s the sieve machine you mentioned, one or two is enough. "Jiang Changan drew while talking.

It will be done in no time.

The few people are no strangers to it, these things are very simple for Jiang Changan, they have been shocked many times, and now they have become in every possible way.

The four had a good night's rest. The next day, Mayor Zhang came to the inn before dawn to wait.

He was so anxious that the corners of his mouth were blistered, how could he be able to sleep, otherwise he would not have pinned his hopes on a few children.

Jiang Chang'an was also unambiguous, he got up early and went downstairs, and handed a stack of blueprints to Mayor Zhang.

"This is the best method I can come up with, Mayor Zhang, see if it can be implemented?

I just have an idea. In terms of manpower and material resources, the mayor still needs to find a way to recruit. "

Jiang Chang'an didn't mention the sandy grain, they discussed it, and it would not be too late to talk about it when they found it, otherwise they couldn't find it in the end, and it would be a joyous occasion.

Maybe others thought they had something to do with the county magistrate.

Mayor Zhang took the blueprint and took a look at it. It was so clear at a glance, he immediately understood what Jiang Changan meant.

It's just that I didn't expect Jiang Changan to have such painting skills. Could it be that her family came from the Ministry of Industry?
"Wonderful, this method is really high, our biggest problem now is that there is no place for the victims to live, and they are trapped in this square inch by the flood.

This kind of work shed is good, the cost is not high, and it is built quickly, so the victims can be properly resettled soon. "

It was still raining, and the flood would not be able to recede within a month or two, so it was necessary to build a construction shed.

The same is true for the food they eat, which must be purchased from outside. They cannot sit and eat.

"This big boat is really good, and I think it is much more advanced than the existing boats on the market.

This kind of good thing must be very popular with merchants. I don't know if Jiang Xiaoyou minds, I will sell this shipbuilding technology for you.

While it can be sold at a good price, the wood for our ship building is also free.

The money belongs to Jiang Xiaoyou, and after solving this difficulty, the ship is still yours to use in the future.

how? "It has to be said that Mayor Zhang's actions are very decent.

Nonsense, can Jiang Changan's background be simple?Maybe it's a child from some family who came out to practice.

Look, even the military personnel are very familiar with her, how can such a person be messed with?

Mayor Zhang is transparent, otherwise he wouldn't be the mayor of the town after the downfall of the previous county magistrate.

"Okay, the mayor can just look at the arrangements. Let's go shopping again today and think about post-disaster construction.

Speaking of the aftermath of the disaster, the mayor, my subordinates know a little about medicine, why don't we ask her to prescribe a cheap prescription and boil some medicine for the victims to drink.

Prevent typhoid and plague.

The biggest problem after the disaster is the plague. "

This is what they discussed last night.

In this flood, people in some places were able to escape, but others were unable to escape, or died of other reasons.

Anyway, they often saw some corpses floating in the river, and no one had the time to fish them, unless the flood subsided.

"Jiang Xiaoyou is very right, please trouble the girl." This idea is related to the mayor's idea, but he can't take it into consideration at the moment.

And there is no prescription to prevent the plague, alas, Da Neng is surrounded by talented people.

Chen Dan, no, she is not a talented person. The prescription is cheap, but I don’t know if it can prevent the plague. I just listen to the girl’s suggestion and play around.

However, wind and cold can certainly be prevented.

"Mayor Zhang, Master Jiang, I just heard that you want to build a ship, how about choosing me?" At this time, a middle-aged man with the appearance of a wealthy businessman stepped forward and bowed his hands politely to the few people.

But, he was just a passing businessman, and Mayor Zhang was not very familiar with him, so he couldn't help frowning.

They openly talked about things in the lobby of the inn, in fact, it was to advertise the news and get some rich people to give some money.

Just didn't expect to catch a big fish?

"Oh? Do you know who this is?" The shrewdness in Mayor Zhang's eyes immediately appeared.

Jiang Chang'an is not good at calculating, and he doesn't dare, but a businessman is different. No matter what his wealth background is, he is always talking about business, and I will do whatever you like.

"Mo Sheng, the second in command of the Mo family caravan in Xiafu City, most of the goods in our caravan are shipped by ship, and we also have our own shipbuilding workshop."

Mo Sheng was just curious. Mayor Zhang said that the drawings made by the little girl made the back of the boat better than the boats on the market. He didn't believe it.

The Mo's caravan is the down payment in Fucheng. In the past, he didn't pay attention to such a small person as Mayor Zhang. He wants to see what kind of blueprints a little girl can draw to be called Master Jiang .

"Hey, it turns out to be Mo's Caravan Manager Mo." Mayor Zhang didn't compliment them either. How rich are these people, even when the flood forced them to come to their door, they still remained indifferent.

Not to mention automatic donations of money and goods, Mayor Zhang had asked for help when he arrived, but no one stood up to help, except for a few wealthy local households.

Since ancient times, businessmen have paid much attention to profits, and it is too normal to watch the lives of the common people. Mayor Zhang does not like these people.

Look at Jiang Changan, she came up to help solve the problem, she didn't mean to hide it at all, not to mention how patriotic she is and the people, but this kind of demeanor is everyone's demeanor.

In the future, people will be officials in the future, and these businessmen will always be just businessmen.

Mayor Zhang was also very obedient, he just showed Mo Sheng an overall floor plan, with the intention of whetting his appetite and slaughtering fat sheep, "Then you can see if you can do it first.

Jiang Xiaoyou, if you have something to do, go and do it first. I will take care of the affairs here. I will arrange for your subordinates to take her to make prescriptions and boil medicines to distribute to the victims. "

How bad it would be for Jiang Changan to see his calculating side, he is a loving mayor.

"Okay, take your leave." Jiang Changan put on his coir raincoat and disappeared into the rain with Li Shushen and Qingfeng.

The three of them rode a horse out of a small town and headed up the mountain. On the horse's head, Jiang Chang'an actually wove several hats when he was in Zhuzi Village.

It's, it's very strange, the horse wore a hat for the first time, but, it's easy to use!Finally, the rain did not flow into the horse's eyes, and the effect was realized, and he was finally able to run in the rain.

Several people walked slowly towards the path on the mountain, "It is said that it is the North Mountain of this town, but I don't know where it is."

Li Shushen was a bachelor, and he didn't think he was unreliable.

If it wasn't his master, Qingfeng would have scolded others, wouldn't this be too embarrassing for Miss Chang'an?Does the master like people or not?

"Let's climb over a mountain first, and it's easy to find it when we get inside. Since the food disappears overnight, it won't be too far to carry it.

Unless the county magistrate moved again later, but at that time he should be at his wits end, the possibility is not great. "

Jiang Changan analyzed the situation at that time and was not discouraged.

Finally, after the path was over, they entered the mountain, and there was a vast expanse of rocks and trees in front of them. Where did they go?
Qingfeng was dumbfounded, at this moment he doubted the IQ of the two children.

At this time, Jiang Changan pointed with his small hand, "There, on the concave side of the mountain, where the trees cover, there is a cave.

The distance is a bit far, and if there is food in the cave, we have to get close to know. "

Qingfeng was dumbfounded again, "Girl, do you have clairvoyant eyes?" From such a long distance, how did she see the cave there.

Qingfeng was sure that his eyesight must be much better than that of ordinary people, but all he could see was the gray rain curtain and the black and green rocks and trees.

Jiang Changan was speechless for a while, "Qingfeng, you are not very good at arithmetic. From here to the mountain over there, it is only two or three miles at most." It is still a winding mountain road, if the diameter is only two miles, right?
Li Shu pursed his lips deeply and smiled, the little monster is not a clairvoyant, but a clairvoyant, "Let's go and have a look."
