The situation in front of Su Tiancheng felt sad.

There are dense sheds built on several consecutive mountain bags. As for the quality of these sheds, it is not necessary to describe them. Most of them are built with trunks and branches. They are covered with some thatch and live in them.

The Yellow River broke, the flood receded, and a large amount of silt accumulated. The government organized people to clean it up, but the effect was not very good.

The victims did not dare to live on the flat ground, and almost all chose to build sheds on the mountain.

More than two months have passed, and the corpses have almost been restrained. There is still an unpleasant smell in the air. It is the corpse of animals, the smell after they rot.

After the news of the imperial court's disaster relief came, many people returned to Mengjin.

The county town is surrounded by disaster victims. The situation inside the county town is slightly better, but it is also extremely miserable.

Wherever you can see, people are crowded everywhere, and the smell is floating in the air.

The people who can see are all dressed in tatters, with a dish on their faces and their eyes are unconscious.

What Su Tiancheng was most worried about was the plague after the disaster. If the disinfection could not be quickly organized, the bacteria emitted by the dead animals would infect people, which would lead to a huge disaster.

In the 17th year of Chongzhen, Li Zicheng attacked the stable and encountered almost no resistance. One big reason was that the plague plague was raging in the northern stable and there were dead people everywhere. Li Zicheng entered the northern stable, and his soldiers were all infected and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.

Su Tiancheng and Yan Zizhang once again had a conflict on the issue of how to provide disaster relief.

Yan Zizhang has been to Mengjin for a few days, and there is not much food nearby. He first bought it in Luoyang, and the price of grain is very high. In the past, the wheat noodles of three cents of silver and one stone increased to five cents of silver, and there was not much inventory. He gritted his teeth and bought some food. He hurried to Mengjin and found that many victims had returned. He gathered outside the county town.

The food you buy cannot last for a long time.

Of course, disaster relief is mainly responsible for local governments. The magistrate of Henan Prefecture has arrived in Mengjin County to assist in disaster relief. After the disaster victims' mood is stable, the inspector and the Censor will have to go back, at most one month.

During Kaifeng, Su Tiancheng purchased a large amount of seeds, medicines, and some cotton cloth.

Seeing these supplies, Yan Zizhang expressed his disapproval. In his opinion, the most important thing is food. As long as the victims have food to eat, they will not starve to death. I will talk about the rest in the future.

When Yan Zizhang saw Su Tiancheng, he became much more polite.

In Xinxiang County, Weihui Prefecture, Su Tiancheng wiped out more than 5,000 bandits and cut off the head of the bandit leader Du Laosan. Yan Zizhang already knew about this. Two thousand to five thousand have achieved such a major victory. If he had not dared to take such a risk.

After checking the supplies, Yan Zizhang hurried to the county government office.

The prefect of Henan Prefecture, the magistrate of Mengjin County, the county magistrate, the magistrate, the Dianshi and other officials were all in the second hall of the county government.

"Sir, the officials think that food is the most important thing. As for the rest, it can be handled by Henan Prefecture and Mengjin County."

Su Tiancheng looked at Yan Zizhang and said that he had read too much and was kicked by a donkey in the head. Since he didn't know how to save disasters, don't speak casually, and he was the deputy envoy.

"Mr. Yan, after a major disaster, there will be a major epidemic. The reason why this did not happen in Mengjin County is due to the active cleaning of the silt and sequestering the bodies. A large number of victims have left here. Now the victims have heard that the court has come to provide disaster relief and have returned one after another. With more people, it will inevitably cause some diseases. If they cannot effectively defend against a major epidemic, will you and I live up to the favor of the holy people?"

"The victims cannot rely entirely on the relief of the court. They must carry out production and rebuild their homes. They need seeds, restore arable land to the greatest extent, and prepare to sow winter wheat so that they will have food in the next year. Otherwise, the court will exempt them from taxes, but there is no food in the fields, so what do they eat."

"The weather is getting colder. As winter comes, the victims need to wear warm clothes. If some people are frozen to death, you and I will not be able to complete the task well."

"Henan Prefecture and Mengjin County are mainly responsible for post-disaster production and reconstruction. We work with our colleagues to estimate the amount of money needed to be spent and ask them to implement it on their behalf. As for the matter of food, the disaster victims need to overcome difficulties. The court does not have that great ability and a complete burden, and the prefectures and counties also need to find a way."

After saying this, everyone was silent.

Yan Zizhang was thinking about what to say, but when he saw Su Tiancheng, who was expressionless, he shut up tactfully.

There is a problem involved, that is, the problem of corruption among local officials. The money for disaster relief cannot be used in real terms on the victims. Therefore, Su Tiancheng tried his best to buy as much materials as possible and distribute them. The officials were thinking about corruption, but there was no way. Of course, he could not keep an eye on the production after the disaster, after all, it only took such a long time.

Outside the county town, more than 20 places for porridge were set up. After Su Tiancheng came, he clearly asked that the porridge and chopsticks he had made could not be poured. This was possible. In addition, Chinese medicine was prepared in every place where porridge was given, and everyone should drink it to avoid infectious diseases.

The officials of the county government started to be busy again. They registered the situation of the victims, continued to clean up the dead bodies of animals and livestock, and buried them deep as required. Most of the victims were mobilized to start rebuilding their homes.

Su Tiancheng couldn't help but scold Yan Zizhang when it came to cleaning up the mud.

Yan Zizhang's meaning is to clean up the silt, the county government sent people to organize it, and the disaster victims went to work, and there was no reward.

Su Tiancheng insisted that the farmers who participated in the cleaning of the silt were two cents a day for young and strong people, and the elderly were filial to each person, and one cent a day for each person. They had to complete the work tasks, otherwise the remuneration would be reduced by half.

Yan Zizhang thought it was unreasonable. This was the cause of the victims himself, so why did the court pay money?

The two even started arguing in the county government.

Yan Zizhang presented his own reasons, and there was no need for the court to pay money.

Su Tiancheng glanced at Yan Zizhang coldly and spoke without hesitation.

"Mr. Yan, I am the commander, and I am directly responsible for everything. I make a decision. You and I can negotiate, but you must be clear about your own identity."

"The emperor dare not agree with the words of the emperor. If the emperor wants to object to unreasonable matters, the emperor must oppose it. Otherwise, when he returns to the stable, the emperor must impeach the emperor."

"As long as you want, you can do whatever you want. Starting from now on, you will assist the local government in taking responsibility for all disaster relief matters, and all decisions will follow the arrangements of our officials."

Yan Zizhang was also angry and spoke with a sneer.

"Sir, I said this. Xiaguan will go back to the stable tomorrow. Is there no place to make sense?"

"Please, but I have a word first. The cavalry camp will come to provide disaster relief and will not escort you back to the stable. If you want to go back in advance, you will be responsible for the expenses along the way."

"You, you're bullying too much..."

"Hmph, I'm fine to do this. If I hadn't considered that you came to Mengjin County in advance and tried your best to help the victims, I'd have hired Shangfang's sword long ago, and I know nothing. I'm talking nonsense here and delaying disaster relief matters. I'd better shut up in the future."

Yan Zizhang's face turned pale. Su Tiancheng was angry and asked Shangfang's sword to come out. That was not a joke.

"I know you are not convinced, so I will let you understand. First, when you arrive in Mengjin County, you see the victims gathering, and you didn't expect to make reasonable arrangements and carry out self-rescue, but you stare at the food. As long as the victims have food to eat, you will ignore everything and leave it to the local area. What's the role of the imperial court sending you to provide disaster relief?"

"Secondly, the simple common sense is not clear. This is not a drought or flood. The Yellow River breaks, countless people die, and there are corpses of livestock everywhere. The weather is hot, these corpses rot, and the dirty water flows out. When the victims drink it, what will happen? Don't you know? After the disaster, the plague will spread. Don't you know. When you come to Mengjin County, if you don't organize prevention, you just think about food and have no idea about the situation below. You are here to provide disaster relief."

"Third, the reconstruction after the disaster is not fully paid attention to, and no good idea is expected. Relying on the local area, the dredging matter is huge, and the county government can complete it. Taking advantage of the dredging moment, subsidize the victims with some silver to help them build their homes. With the money in hand, they can survive this period of time. You don't know such a simple truth, and you are still talking about disaster relief."

"Mr. Yan, I remind you again that disaster relief is extraordinary and there is no tolerance for any mistakes. If you think about other things in your heart, delay disaster relief and cause the people to suffer, no matter who it is, I will not be polite."

Yan Zizhang's face turned pale. He understood this evil completely. It turned out that Su Tiancheng knew everything.

He also had his last resort. Since he accepted the task, he had to work in that direction, otherwise he would be unable to explain it. Who knew that Su Tiancheng ignored this trick at all and made a decision many times.

In fact, many of Su Tiancheng's proposals are very reasonable. Doing so can help the victims to the greatest extent. For example, if the money is subsidized for work, if all these money is reached by the local government, I don't know how many of them can fall on the victims. It is undoubtedly the best to use this method to send the money directly to the victims.
