Chapter 280 Arranging Post-Disaster Reconstruction Work
Immediately, the officials sitting below began to discuss in low voices. Although Wang Ping'an's plan was simple and easy to understand, there were some parts that only he understood, but he did not write it down.What the officials were talking about was that only Wang Ping'an could understand it, and they could only get what they said, but not what it meant.

Ji Ning just sat on his seat, not moving at all. To him, the plan drawn up by Wang Pingan was a heavenly book, and he couldn't judge whether it was good or bad.He is just a general, he only knows how to kill the enemy on the battlefield, but he doesn't know how to be a civil servant.

A middle-aged man wearing a green official uniform was the first to stand up and asked: "Xu Zhi, magistrate of Kaifeng County, I have seen the imperial envoy. Is there something I don't know? Please answer me."

"Please." Wang Pingan made a gesture of invitation.

County magistrate Xu cupped his hands and said: "In the plan of your lord, it is mentioned that all the fertile fields in Bianzhou City are concentrated, but these fertile fields are owned by the owner, how can the government take them forcibly, even though many of the fertile fields will be destroyed because of this flood. drowned."

"Magistrate Xu asked a good question. In fact, I blame the imperial envoy for not writing clearly. The government did not occupy these lands, but bought these fertile fields at a higher price than the market, and then distributed these fertile lands according to the population. Even a baby can Divide an acre of three-point land, so that the people will continue to give birth, increase the population, and the city of Bianzhou can recover. As for the land distribution, it is up to your sihu of the city of Bianzhou to do the statistics of population and land distribution. Remember One point, these lands only allow them the right to use the land for farming, not the right to sell it.” Wang Pingan talked eloquently.

Wang Ping'an's land allocation is actually a modern land allocation, but this is only suitable for the current situation in Bianzhou. If he is promoted to other places, it is estimated that those landlords, high-ranking officials, and aristocratic families will be divided into five horses.

However, his policy still made Li Chengqian, Du Ruhui, Ji Ming and others' eyes brighten, but then they shook their heads, knowing that this would be very difficult to achieve, almost impossible.

"The lower official also has a question, Mr. Ping will answer it."

"Just ask."

"Your Excellency said that some residential areas in Bianzhou City will be demolished, and the commercial area of ​​the city will be redeveloped. Where do you plan to arrange for the original people to live? And you plan to let everyone participate in this commercial area, so I hope you can explain it in detail. Explain, so that everyone has a clear idea." Another county magistrate stood up and said.

Wang Pingan said with a smile: "As we all know, this flood not only destroyed fertile land, but also swallowed up all the villages in Bianzhou. Even in Bianzhou city, houses in many areas collapsed."

Everyone nodded, and they acquiesced to Wang Pingan's words.

"I believe that in the past disaster relief, everyone was building houses for the people on the original basis, without changing the previous layout at all. But the imperial envoy came, and the imperial envoy disrupted the original layout of the entire Bianzhou city and started from scratch. "Wang Pingan continued.

"How to arrange?" This time it was Ji Ning who asked, he is the governor of Bianzhou, and he is most concerned about the development of Bianzhou city.

With a wave of Wang Ping'an's hand, Dong Xue took out the simplified version of the floor plan of Bianzhou that Wang Ping'an had said.

He pointed to the floor plan and said with a smile: "Master Ji, please take a look." He went to the side of the floor plan and continued: "This is the floor plan of Bianzhou City drawn by the imperial envoy temporarily. It consists of six counties. The imperial envoy will draw circles on these Places to build commercial areas, those blocks are new residential areas..."

Wang Platform eloquently explained his ideas, and many officials put forward their own ideas. For example, after the new residential area is built, they can exchange houses with the residents who will be developed into a commercial area. After the new commercial area is built, they can Take out some of the storefronts and sell them to businessmen, and each county can develop tourist attractions according to its own county characteristics.

The scene of the meeting became more and more lively, and officials in Bianzhou slowly began to look forward to the blueprint for the bright future described by Wang Ping'an.

In particular, Wang Pingan said that all officials can participate in the development of Bianzhou. If you have money, you can participate in the construction of the entire project. , everyone has something to earn.

Those who are rich can pay for the construction of a food street like Wang Ping'an, and the entire storefront of the food street belongs to him. This is the contractor for later generations.

Those who have no money can use the officials in the entire yamen to raise funds to build shops.

At this time, all the officials in Bianzhou were very excited, because they saw a bright future, so they were completely mobilized for this disaster relief. They didn't need Wang Ping'an to urge them, they would urge themselves to make arrangements for the victims as soon as possible.

"Everyone, there are currently more than 5 victims of the disaster. Excluding the elderly and children, there are about 2 laborers. You can hire these laborers to do things for you. This is work-for-relief, which can save a lot of food for the court.

And starting tomorrow, the people from the Sigong Mansion will survey the entire village outside Bianzhou City, rectify the villages where the water level has dropped, and the people from the Sihu House will conduct statistics on the land and population.As for the city, Governor Ji organized the victims to demolish the collapsed houses. "Wang Ping'an ordered.

Then Wang Pingan issued one order after another. Among them, what surprised everyone the most was that the supervisor of the disaster relief plan asked Ji Ming to take over. Wang Pingan's reason was that this was an opportunity for Ji Ming to perform and he could not miss it.

But Ji Ning was the happiest. As the governor of Bianzhou, the arrangements for the disaster victims were his top priority. As for the development of Bianzhou City that Wang Pingan said, his younger brother Ji Ming would manage it, so he didn't have to worry about it.

The entire convention center is pretty much over in your question-and-answer session.

Among them, Li Chengqian, Du Ruhui and others did not speak. They had learned everything about the post-disaster reconstruction from the questions and answers of Wang Ping'an and the Bianzhou officials.

"Master Wang, why did you let the lower officials stay to supervise the post-disaster reconstruction work?" Ji Ming asked puzzledly, he had to ask clearly, otherwise he would not be able to get rid of the doubts in his heart.

Wang Pingan said with a smile: "There are three aspects to this. First, you are a very smart person; second, you are a local, and the governor of Bianzhou is your elder brother, so it will be more convenient for you to do things; Enter the words of His Majesty, so that the prince can talk about you in front of His Majesty."

After Ji Ming listened to it, he said to Wang Ping'an deeply, "Your Excellency, I will never forget this kindness."

Du Ruhui and Li Chengqian looked at each other and smiled, feeling happy that Wang Pingan was not jealous of Xianxian.But after listening to Wang Ping'an's post-disaster reconstruction arrangements, they were even more amazed, but they seemed to have forgotten something, and felt like they had suffered a big loss.

After they returned to their camp, they remembered that they had promised to give five thousand guan to buy two stores. Li Chengqian said in shock: "Oh, it's a big loss. No, I must get back the five thousand guan One of the development and construction rights is required.”

The same thing happened in Du Ruhui's tent.

Wang Pingan arranged for the post-disaster reconstruction work, and planned to return to Chang'an after staying for ten days. The rest was left to Ji Ming.

"Master, this disaster relief has been perfectly solved. Starting tomorrow, except for the elderly and children, almost everyone will have jobs and wages. Can we go back to Chang'an?" Dong Xue made Wang Pingan's bed and quilt asked.

Wang Pingan shook his head and said, "Things have been arranged, but we can't go back to Chang'an until everything is on track."

"How long will it take?" Dong Xue asked curiously. She now has more and more admiration for Wang Ping'an. He can arrange such major events as disaster relief properly, and put the interests of the people at the forefront as much as possible.

Wang Ping'an thought for a while and said, "One day is fast, three days is slow, but I plan to stay in Chang'an for another ten days, young master."

Early the next morning, Wang Ping'an was woken up by Li Chengqian and Du Ruhui.

Li Chengqian said: "Ping An, I can't give you the five thousand guan. I plan to build a commercial street in the commercial area of ​​Bianzhou City."

Du Ruhui also said: "The old man is too."

Wang Pingan was in a daze, and said impatiently: "You guys are going to find Ji Ming, and he is in charge of this matter now."

As soon as the two heard this, they left Wang Ping'an and hurried to find Ji Ming.

And Wang Pingan, who was thrown on the bed, was very frantic, and screamed heart-piercingly: "Ah~ you two, remember, I will definitely get back. Be careful."

It's a pity that neither Li Chengqian nor Du Ruhui could hear it.

It was impossible for Wang Pingan to sleep, so he just got dressed and got up.

He asked Dong Xue and Gao Shou to accompany him to wander around Bianzhou City, and then he found Ji Ming and said, "Ji Ming, you can move those workshops to the north of the city. The south of the city can be built into a residential area, and the west of the city can be built into a government office area."

"My lord said that it coincides with the lower officials, and the lower officials are also planning to do so. It's just that, it will take a long time, and the construction will not be completed until the end of the year at the earliest. If it is slower, it may be next year." Ji Ming worried.

Wang Pingan smiled and said: "Time is not a problem, the main thing is to get things done, so that you will have the credit. The imperial envoy will stay here for ten days and then return to Chang'an."

"So fast? Can't my lord stay a little longer?" Ji Ming asked in surprise.

"There are still many things in Chang'an waiting for the imperial envoy to deal with. Ten days is already the maximum."

"Well, the next official will show you the preliminary results within ten days." Ji Ming said confidently.

"Okay, courageous, the imperial envoy is waiting, haha..." Wang Pingan laughed, but said in his heart: "I have a good eye, and I didn't see the wrong person."
