Chapter 224 Build a new city to accept the disaster victims!

Lin Beifan looked at the disaster victims all over the mountains and plains, and felt that this was not enough.

It’s freezing cold, and everyone’s clothes are not very warm.

He didn’t eat enough, and he had to travel such a long distance. During this period, he didn’t know how many people would die.

So Jin Yiwei was called: “Notify the disaster relief fleet in front of Quanquan immediately, and let them send the boat over immediately after unloading the food to transport the victims!”

“Yes, my lord!” Jin Yiwei clapped his hands and said.

Lin Beifan said again: “Besides, I’m afraid that someone will take the opportunity to make trouble, so I told them to send experts to keep an eye on the food and the hovercraft, and they must not be sloppy at all, do you understand?”

“Yes, my lord!” Jin Yiwei took the order and left.

After receiving Lin Beifan’s order, Jin Yiwei immediately used special means to notify the fleet ahead.

They received the order, unloaded the food, and immediately went south to transport the victims.

In the beginning, there were only a few hovercraft, which could only transport thousands of people.

But gradually, there are more and more hovercraft, and more and more victims can be transported.

Along the river, all the way mighty.

And the disaster victims, although they are fleeing now, feel that the more they walk, the smoother they go, and the easier it is to go to the back.

Every time they arrive at the next city, steaming porridge has been cooked in that city to help everyone.

After eating the porridge, you can rest right away, and continue on your way after resting, without having to think about anything else.

Although everyone is with their families, but with the hovercraft, they can help transport the old, weak, sick and disabled, and solve the biggest worries of the victims. The pressure is less, it is much easier, and the speed is much faster.

In the end, there were more hovercraft.

There are many young and strong youths who have the opportunity to sit on a hovercraft and take a ride.

Thanks to such thoughtful arrangements, the casualties of the victims were much less.

Everyone was full of hope and headed to the capital.

Unknowingly, the capital gradually approached.

By the river in the capital, the empress, civil and military officials, dignitaries in the city, and some ordinary people have already gathered here to welcome the imminent millions of disaster victims.

Seeing the dense crowd rushing over from one end of the river.

Everyone was very excited.

“They are finally here, there are so many people!”

“I heard that this time, millions of people migrated and traveled 800 miles, but the casualties were less than 1,000! This is simply a miracle in the history of disaster relief!”

“That’s right, most of them died of old age and disease! None of them really starved to death!”

“Jijiu, it’s amazing!”

……

Amidst everyone’s discussion, the large army finally arrived in front of the empress.

Lin Beifan took the lead, bowed and said loudly: “My lord, long live my emperor!”

The victims all bowed their hands and shouted loudly.

“Meet Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!”

Some even knelt down and kowtowed reverently.

The empress said loudly: “My people, you can live without courtesy!”

“Thank you, Your Majesty!” Everyone said in unison.

Lin Beifan reported loudly: “Your Majesty, I was ordered to go to the disaster relief. It took a total of 15 days before and after, and there was no slack! Now that the task has been completed and I have returned smoothly, please be aware of it!”

The empress said very excitedly: “Ai Qing, you have worked so hard on this journey! I know everything you have done! Starting from the capital, traveling all the way, starry night and fast, it took less than 4 days to reach Huazhou , Relieve the victims in time!”

“Afterwards, through careful and thoughtful arrangements along the way, the casualties of the common people were greatly reduced! You have done a good job, and I am so relieved! You should rest for a few days, and I will arrange other things! Your credit, I will Remember!”

“Thank you, Your Majesty!” Lin Beifan thanked him, stepped back, and gave way to seat C.

Facing the expectant gazes, the empress said loudly: “And my people, you have worked hard all the way to get here! I have already prepared hot meals, tents, and quilts. Wait, after you have eaten and drank enough, take a good rest and recharge your spirits!”

“As Lin Aiqing said, you are all the people of Great Wu, the people of me! I will never abandon any of the people of Great Wu, and I will never abandon any of the people of Great Wu!”

“Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En!” The disaster victims said in unison, their hearts filled with joy.

The problem of disaster relief has been solved, but how to resettle the victims has become a major problem that the imperial court has to face.

This matter involves the basic necessities of life for millions of people. If it is not handled properly, it will cause a series of problems and bring about unimaginable consequences.

In order to solve this problem, the empress had no choice but to call all civil and military officials to discuss countermeasures.

Even Lin Beifan, who was resting, was pulled over.

“Dear dears, what good strategy do you have?”

All the officials put forward their own suggestions one after another.

However, since there are too many people involved this time, it is very troublesome to deal with, and there is no perfect solution.

At this time, Lin Beifan stood up and said, “Your Majesty, I have already thought of a countermeasure!”

The empress said happily: “Speak, Aiqing!”

“The disaster victims have no house, no land, no food, no money. It can be said that they have nothing! So the most important thing now is to provide them with a job. Only after they have a job will they have money, food, houses and fields!”

An old minister frowned and said, “How can there be so many jobs in the capital?”

Lin Beifan smiled and said, “The capital can’t provide it, but our imperial court can!”

The empress’ eyes moved: “You mean, work for relief?”

“Your Majesty, that’s right!”

“But, what about the food?”

Qian Yuanshen, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, smiled wryly: “Our biggest problem now is the lack of food! Do we have to feed them all the time? If we do, our food won’t last until next year!”

“In addition, what do we do with work for cash?”

Wang Rushui, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, stood up and said, “In the capital, all the projects that can be done have been done! There are still some small projects left, which cannot support a million victims at all!”

“There is still the problem of housing!”

Minister of the Ministry of Justice stood up: “Now, the weather is getting colder and colder! Now the victims are living in tents, wrapped in quilts, and still feel cold! But in two months, when the real winter is really cold, if the problem cannot be solved The problem will inevitably freeze to death on a large scale! How can this problem be solved?”

Everyone expressed their opinions, and the more they talked, the more problems they had.

The empress frowned: “Okay! I called you here to solve the problem, not to raise the problem! Since you have nothing to do now, let’s listen to Lin Aiqing and see what he can do! Lin Aiqing, hurry up! Tell me the countermeasures!”

After finishing speaking, a pair of beautiful eyes looked forward to looking at Lin Beifan.

This guy has solved many difficult things since he became an official.

I hope this time, it will still be like this!

“Yes, Your Majesty!” Lin Beifan smiled slightly: “Your Majesty, my lords, it is actually not difficult to solve this matter! Have you ever thought about building a sub-city in the capital?”

Everyone was shocked: “Build a vice city?”

“Yes!” Lin Beifan nodded with a smile: “As long as a city is built, all problems will be solved! Building a new city requires a lot of labor. Isn’t a million people enough?”

“After the city is built, it can solve the problems of food, clothing, housing and transportation for the victims once and for all!”

“Another point is that the population of our capital is already saturated! The area of ​​the city remains the same, but the population is increasing, which is not conducive to management and development! Just enough to build a new city to accommodate some of the population!”

“It’s a good idea, but how can it be so easy to build a new city?” The Minister of Rites smiled bitterly: “Which city in our Great Wu didn’t take decades to build bit by bit? We are now There is no such time at all! After the city is established, let alone the victims of the disaster, we are almost dead!”

“In addition to this, there are a lot of resources that are consumed! Needless to say, everyone should know the resources needed! Our imperial court simply cannot afford to supply these resources!”

“Master Lin, your idea is a bit out of the ordinary, it’s not practical at all!”

“Let’s change our mind!”

……

Everyone is not optimistic about it.

At this time, Lin Beifan bowed and said loudly: “Your Majesty, I have a way to build a new city within three months! Moreover, it will definitely not waste the resources of the court!”

Everyone turned pale with shock.

“How is it possible to build a city in three months?!”

“Just kidding, this is!”

“Master Lin, the matter is very important now, don’t make such a joke!”

……

Lin Beifan was very calm: “The reason why I dare to boast about Haikou is because I have this ability! This involves an invention of the minister! This invention is not inferior to the big balloon, the flying artifact, and the hovercraft, which is a sharp weapon on the water! Just take it Come out and guarantee that the city construction problem can be solved!”

Everyone was shocked again!

This invention is not inferior to big balloons and hovercraft?

You know, Lin Beifan’s two previous inventions were amazing!

One that can take people to the sky and realize people’s dream of flying to the sky for thousands of years!

The other one can strengthen water transportation, transport troops and food on a large scale, and greatly enhance the army’s logistical strength!

Now, another heaven-defying invention has emerged, which is not inferior to these two artifacts at all?

So, the officials are not calm anymore!

The empress is not calm anymore!

“Aiqing, what is the invention? Tell me quickly!” The Empress was very excited.

All the officials waited eagerly, waiting for Lin Beifan’s explanation.

But Lin Beifan said slowly: “Your Majesty, this invention involves the national capital! In order to research this invention, I forgot to sleep and eat, and paid a huge price! So, can you help Chen with some research funding?”

The Empress is about to laugh angrily!

This little bastard!

Don’t forget to be greedy for money at this time!

The empress said angrily: “Okay, okay! Lin Aiqing, if your invention really benefits the country and the people, solves the problem of millions of victims, and can build a city within three months, I will approve you 2 million yuan!” Funding, okay?”

“Your Majesty, can you give me more? It’s not easy!” Lin Beifan said eagerly.

The empress was so angry that she really wanted to tear off his face, which was so intrusive, and make it into a ball and kick it like a ball!

“Add another 500,000, and the household department doesn’t have much money! I will keep your credit in my heart, and I will reward you together in the future, okay? Tell me about your invention!” the empress urged.
