Chapter 520 Plan ahead
Several provinces and regions along the Yangtze River that were more severely affected by the disaster finally ushered in a relatively sunny weather.

According to the weather forecast of the Central Meteorological Observatory, in the recent period, the weather along the Yangtze River has been mainly sunny to cloudy, with rain in some areas.

The flood-fighting troops, militias and people in the disaster-stricken areas finally breathed a sigh of relief. If the weather is mainly sunny, the water level of the Yangtze River will definitely drop soon, and it is only a matter of time before the flood subsides.

Most resettlement sites are not far from the disaster area.On days like today, when the weather is fine, most of the people affected by the disaster will return to their flooded houses and pack up their usable things.

In a flooded yard, Lin Dong was carrying a wooden cabinet with an old man.

Most of the paint on the cabinet has been peeled off, and the style is a little old. It looks like an old thing.

The old man's name is Geng Bingcheng, in his 70s, and he is a five-guarantee household in this village.

Uncle Geng was an optimist. After Lin Dong came out of the hospital, he went around the disaster areas, helping anyone who could help. This time, he helped Uncle Geng pack his things.

"This house needs to be rebuilt." Lin Dong said while carrying the cabinet, "Is there any arrangement in the village?"

Uncle Geng said cheerfully: "Yes!" He lifted the cabinet to a high place in the yard, motioned Lin Dong to put the cabinet here, and after putting it away, he patted the dirt on his hands and said, "Let's Here, because it is a flooded area, there are subsidies for building houses, and flood disasters, the state also provides subsidies, I am a five-guarantee household, and the village also needs to make up for it. My three houses basically cost nothing.”

After finishing speaking, he smiled and whispered to Lin Dong: "But we can't always take advantage of the country, can we? So these things are still usable. I don't think the wood on my roof is damaged. I will dry it when the time comes. Sun, I can continue to use it, and it won’t cost much. The village will provide some labor to help me build it, and I will return the extra money to the village. There are still more difficult things in the village than us!”

The older generation, after all, are still simple.They uphold the principle of self-reliance to get rich, and they are unwilling to take advantage of others.

Lin Dong nodded, and asked while moving things out of the almost ruined house: "How is the power supply in the settlement now? Are the living facilities guaranteed?"

"Yes!" Uncle Geng said with a smile, "everything is available for food and use! The lights are also on, and now the power station is still sending electricity. It is said that there are generators ready for civil affairs. We old men must be I have no opinion. But those young people can’t do it. They say that the mobile phone base station is broken, and the charging of the mobile phone is inconvenient, and I don’t understand the traffic. But I think this condition is good enough If you want to put it before liberation, then who cares about you! You are not satisfied with this now, you are used to it..."

Uncle Geng was picking things up while chattering.

About an hour later, Lin Dong returned to the resettlement site.

This is a relatively large settlement.Hundreds of people from a nearby township are resettled here.There are neat rows of tents, and children come in and out to play from time to time.It seemed that it was a resettlement site set up by the troops. The roads were well-planned and the tents were set up neatly. There was even a small shed built outside each tent to store relief supplies.On the side of the tent, drainage ditches were also dug.

Lin Dong found that outside these tents, there were wires pulled by simple electric poles. The wires were drawn from a transformer not far away, and further away, he could see the high-voltage substation a few kilometers away.

This electricity should have been transported from a certain hydropower station!
Lin Dong compared the information in the encyclopedia. Here, in the parallel world, in a few days, there will be the largest rainfall in this century. That rainfall was not taken seriously by the Meteorological Bureau—because the Meteorological Bureau According to the forecast, this should be a light to moderate rain.However, according to later scientific analysis, it is said that the air pressure belt moving from the north to the south met the local warm and humid air flow of the Yangtze River, resulting in some unpredictable reaction, and then the light rain turned into heavy rain, and even became torrential rain in some areas.

The flash floods hit again, and the floods in many places reached the peak of this century, even greater than the flood in [-].

The location of these resettlement sites is relatively high, but most of them have not been affected, but those hydropower stations and substations have been greatly affected. Many high-voltage transmission and transformation lines have been washed out, and large-scale power outages have begun.

It would be better if the resettlement sites are full of elderly and children. Most of these people have simple needs and do not need too many entertainment channels.

But in fact, there are a large number of boys and girls in the resettlement sites, and some young and middle-aged people who have returned to their hometowns to provide disaster relief.

Because of the power outage, many facilities cannot be used. The generators allocated by the civil administration are simply not enough, and such as cell phone towers, TV programs, and radio programs cannot operate normally, and the continuous rain makes the affected people unable to return to their homes. The original family cleaned up the mess and could only stay in the tent.

The so-called much ado about nothing is nothing more than old people and children. Those energetic young adults will naturally think of ways to exert their strength.

As a result, fights, gambling, harassment and other things emerged in endlessly, and there were even incidents where young people from two villages fought in groups because of a girl, which almost caused mass incidents.

More and more troubles, in fact, the most fundamental ones are the lack of electricity and lack of entertainment facilities.

Although the higher-ups paid attention to this problem later, and urgently allocated a large number of generators, installed solar panels, repaired lines, built new mobile phone base stations, and resumed TV broadcasting, but that was just a remedy.

Because of the disaster in Huaxia, almost the whole world is paying attention—or interested people all over the world are paying attention.Especially those Western reporters, some of whom hope to find some scandals and the like, and then use them as content to smear China to enrich their reputation.

During the earthquake in central Sichuan, similar things happened. Some foreign journalists took some pictures of the resettlement sites, added their own imaginary words and published them in some famous media in the world, which really vilified the place. Put our image.

As for the earlier riots in the snow area, and the subsequent terrorist incidents in the postal chemical industry, many of them were instigated and distorted by foreign media under the guise of freedom of the press.

In the parallel world, similarly, this kind of incident also caused many foreign journalists who came to interview to accumulate a lot of "materials", and then left satisfied to publish the article.

It really made China's foreign affairs department very passive.

Now, all Lin Dong has to do is to plan ahead and fill up these loopholes before things happen.

His original Tengjiao was sent back to the factory for repairs, and now he is still driving a modified Tengjiao speeding car.In the trunk of the flying car, there are twenty batteries, which are only for emergency use.It is also used for advertising.

This time, he directly approached the person in charge of the resettlement site in the disaster area, Hong Yuandong, the deputy head of the township.
