Green bricks and dark tiles, flowers bloom on the paths, perfuming her clothes; vermilion gates and purple halls, she plucks stars with her bare hands, adorned in a rainbow.
Chapter 277: We Are in the Same Boat
The flood that ravaged five states receded, and a canal nearly a hundred miles long was opened in three days.
Zong Zheng Ruijin was rarely silent.
When the ministers in the court heard the news, they were speechless in the hall.
In their opinion, something that could only be done by the true God was done by a woman in southern Xinjiang.
And the way she did it made people wonder if she was the White Snake in the open-air movie, who could control water and cross mountains.
Otherwise, why would the water listen to her so much?
When it comes, it really comes. When it comes, it really goes away.
Even if she negotiated with the officials and farmers in the area she passed through, she would have the canal run through the fields to avoid rocky and hard ground.
But that was only three days!
Let me ask, apart from the Bodhisattva Guanyin who possesses supernatural powers and the Daluo immortals, who else can do such an incredible thing.
But they really couldn't call her a monster.
Who told him to do that? He didn't even move!
Those who came and went were all people from Nanling.
This is an event that can almost be recorded in history, and it was completed in such a straightforward manner.
This is something that even their emperor cannot do...
When the merchants heard that the flood had receded and that Su Shengsheng was going to continue to reinforce the people in the two states, they cried out that they had been cheated.
They thought she had come to terms with reality.
But I didn't expect that I would play a sneaky trick on them!
Look at the people of the fourteen states crying over the tragic scene over there. If this continues, won’t they just have to pay for what she says?
The governor of Tanzhou witnessed Su Shengsheng's ability to move mountains and seas, as well as her cohesion and influence.
I also deeply felt the feeling of being "excluded".
Even if he still wanted to save face, the people began to curse him.
If they don't build telegraph wires to connect with other states, Chanzhou will be left far behind.
It's not that he can't bear to lose this person, he is really impressed.
This woman was able to save the people of five states, a feat that even several generations of emperors could hardly accomplish.
He was really convinced.
…
There was a reason why Su Shengsheng divided them into ten districts.
Nanling now has fourteen prefectures. Quzhou, Wenzhou and Yanzhou have suffered disasters, so they are naturally unable to help others.
As for the Imperial City...she could only take her own place.
As for Chanzhou, she accepted this goodwill gesture.
There are too many force majeure factors in this dynasty.
She couldn't keep refusing to give the prefect a way out because of personal grudges.
As long as the governor of Tanzhou guarantees that he will no longer use public power for personal gain and will not use the power in his hands to make things difficult for merchants and people.
Feng Zhizhou naturally stated immediately that he would no longer associate with treacherous people and would put the people first.
Su Shengsheng didn't do anything too much to make things difficult for him, waiting to see what would happen next.
In reality, she had more pressing matters to attend to.
After the "documentary" was broadcast at the open-air cinema, Su Shengsheng struck while the iron was hot.
Take the lead in launching the heart-to-heart and charitable donation campaign.
Each state will provide targeted assistance to one district.
The population of Nanling Prefecture is about one million.
One state to one district means one million people helping one hundred thousand people.
On average, ten people help one person.
The time agreed upon is only six months.
A rough calculation shows that one person needs 108 kilograms of rice for six months.
In total, ten people each give two kilograms of rice every month.
Of course, it's all voluntary.
Because we also need to ensure that this person has the medical care and medicine he needs.
For those who are willing to donate, a charity bulletin board will be displayed.
The assistance provided to each district in each state will be made public every month.
You can donate with your real name or anonymously.
Ant Forest did not grow in a day.
She believes that when people are united, they can move mountains.
When Su Shengsheng mobilized, representatives of the people from the two states had already rushed to the rescue supply site.
Seeing the tragic situation of the equally devastated state, they felt the supplies in their hands were heavy.
Since being invaded by the Northern Rong, they have lost contact with the other half of Nanling.
Now that the city walls have collapsed, there are no Northern Rong soldiers guarding them.
This was the first time they had contact with the outside world in two years.
Under the same circumstances, they are still willing to share their rations with them.
This made the representatives of the people from the two states choke with tears.
This was also the first time they learned from the other side that the woman who saved them was Princess Xuanming.
She is the commander of the Qilin Army in Southern Xinjiang and the wife of Xie Xuan.
Su Shengsheng. Of course, they didn't have close contact.
After the flood receded, a clear dividing line remained on the remaining city foundations.
They want to live, but if they cross that line, they will bring endless trouble to those who save them.
The people who came to deliver supplies told them that only with land could they survive.
They...believe her!
Even though we have never met before, even though she has not made any promises.
But she did what she said and gave them a chance to survive.
No one on either side crossed the line, only the horses carrying food were allowed to cross the line of life and death that seemed like a divine will.
Because there are so many of them, they need to come and collect it every day.
But the abundant supplies, which had been distributed according to regions, gave them confidence.
They even took into consideration the fact that the firewood might have rotted and couldn't be used to start a fire.
They said they had natural gas prepared for them to cook.
When the Su family members demonstrated to them, the flames, which were not afraid of the harsh environment and remained strong, warmed them.
If we can survive such a natural disaster, what else should we be afraid of?
…
People are all made of flesh and blood.
Seeing the situation in the two states, the people of the ten states donated clothes if they had clothes, gave food if they had food, and gave money if they had money.
For them, it’s just a matter of each person eating one less bite every day.
But just this one bite can save a life.
He ignored the sudden accusations from outside that the Su family was rich but unkind and wanted to take the opportunity to line their own pockets.
If he is capable, let him do it, otherwise don't waste time.
Unity makes strength, sand piles form a tower, and water accumulates to form an abyss.
After watching the clip, people from all states held family meetings.
Almost immediately, a unanimous decision was made.
If the Pseudo-Emperor Yu Chang and Bei Rong don't care, then they will take care of it.
These are their compatriots.
Perhaps, Nanling is still weak in front of Beirong.
But at this moment, facing life, they will never back down.
Countless people took to the streets and found the local Su family business that took over the matter to transfer their loving donations.
Cartloads of rice, grain, and medicine were shuttled to the border.
The princess said that after the flood, we still need to be wary of major epidemics.
Specific medicines and medical personnel to prevent such situations have arrived in the north.
Before this, Su Shengsheng had asked the women's nursing team to expedite the production of a large amount of penicillin and artemisinin.
Penicillin is made using traditional methods, using orange and rapeseed oil.
Because it takes half a month of natural time and a large number of cases are required, the nurses hardly have time to stop and rest.
At this moment, batches have been sent to the northern border.
The two are antibiotics and antimalarial drugs.
They can all cause allergic reactions, so they require the presence of qualified professional medical personnel before they can be used.
This treatment method has not been used on a large scale.
I'm afraid it will arouse the suspicion of the medical officer sent by the emperor.
In addition, penicillin has no oral medication and needs to be injected.
This type of treatment may also be considered unacceptable by medical officers.
Therefore, there must be a certain degree of difficulty in implementation.
Fortunately, Ke Yan stepped forward at this time.
Because it was difficult for the women of the Su family to leave the place of exile, they were unable to provide support to the nurses locally.
But Ke Yan had witnessed the recovery of soldiers with high fever after fighting with the sand bandits.
