…
When Ah Chen led the Miao army back to the eastern border of Guizhou by quietly passing through the side of the Miao Mountains, --
The cheers that erupted when the 30,000 men of the Black Miao and Green Miao tribes entered Rongjiang territory are beyond words.
Over the past month, the stories of the Miao people in eastern Guizhou carrying out disaster relief and rescue efforts have already spread.
The people of Rongjiang have kept their promise.
When they learned that the Black Miao and Green Miao people had returned, they all came to greet them on both sides of the county road.
Millions of people!
The scene, the atmosphere, --
It surged at one point!
After all, people in eastern Guizhou had already seen reports about the situation in western Hunan on the radio or television.
However, the non-Miao people were somewhat disappointed when they learned that the quasi-Miao king, Mu Achen, had quietly returned to the inner region.
As everyone knows, if it weren't for the quasi-Miao King ordering the various branches of the Miao people to come to their aid, not to mention other places, just in their Rongjiang area alone, --
When the armed defenses arrive, it's uncertain how much damage we'll suffer.
In other words, at the most critical and fatal moment, it was the Miao people who held up the sky for them.
"Sigh, if I had known that the Miao King would split up and return to Tianfeng on the provincial highway, I should have gone there to ambush him."
"Who says otherwise! Look at this grand scene! It's a pity that the future Miao King is missing, otherwise it would be even more perfect."
In Rongjiang today, the torrential rain stopped half a month ago.
The disaster-stricken area is devastated.
The county road was full of potholes, but that did not stop the people from welcoming the Miao people's grand procession.
The cheers never stopped.
Amid the cheers, everyone was asking why the future Miao King wasn't going this way.
Among the crowd, someone even asked, "After the Wu Fang arrived, did the Miao people stop caring about this area?"
"You don't know anything! The Miao people control Tianfeng, that's their stronghold. As for us in Rongjiang, the Miao people retreated as soon as the armed forces came last month."
"Tianfeng is still the best. The Miao people can take care of everything. Although the military defense team has been working hard to help the county recover since they arrived, we feel like something is missing!"
"Can't you see what we're missing? Anyway, after this incident, I'm convinced that we're from the Miao family."
"What's the use of you being so sure about the Miao people? If you're so capable, go and deal with those arrogant government officials. If they had adopted the future Miao king's advice earlier, would we have suffered such great losses? All seven or eight of my pigs are gone."
"Do you think only your family suffered a big loss? My house was just built, and now it's all gone too."
"Alright, alright, stop arguing. It's a natural disaster; everyone suffers losses! Let's all recover quickly. When the future Miao King ascends the throne, let's arrange to go to the ceremony together."
“That’s right! This is a big deal. Tianfeng is working hard on it right now, busy with recovery and preparing for the Miao King’s succession.”
"Let's go, let's go. The Black Miao and Green Miao teams have already passed by. Hurry home and recover."
…
As the locals say, the remaining Miao people in Rongjiang County are all locals.
As for those rescued last month, they were withdrawn just a few days after the arrival of the armed forces.
The county government, in cooperation with the armed forces, was responsible for cleaning up the mud and debris left by the disaster.
As for reconstruction, that's a matter for the county government; the Miao people won't get involved.
As for the money the Miao family spent in Rongjiang when the disaster occurred, Shengtang Yang Ayao has been keeping a close eye on it. These past few days, he has been sending people to deliver bills to Xu County whenever he has free time, which has given Xu County a real headache.
As for Ah Chen, it was already the morning of the 5th when he returned to the Starry Sky Fruit Forest in the Inner Frontier.
The nine clan elders, the chiefs of each branch village, and the eight jackals were already waiting in the greenhouse on the side of the natural lake.
Upon arrival, Ah Chen wasted no time and immediately began arranging various post-disaster matters.
Although he was away on rescue missions in western Hunan for the past month, Amo would keep him updated on the situation there from time to time.
Moreover, Ah Chen came from the Miao Mountains and passed through many Miao villages in the interior of China.
Mu Achen saw everything that was happening.
Furthermore, the jackals had told him quite a bit on their way here.
Therefore, this meeting lasted for five or six hours.
After listening to the reports from each branch, Ah Chen made comprehensive arrangements for the aftermath of the disaster.
Epidemic prevention is of paramount importance.
After the disaster, the lime and alcohol that had been prepared came in handy.
But Amo had already arranged all of this, so Achen didn't waste any more time and instead told everyone.
"Great disasters are always followed by great prosperity!"
"Having gone through this ordeal, I believe all branches of the Miao people have realized that non-Miao people refer to Tianfeng as the core area of the Guizhou Miao, but—"
"The Miao people of Guizhou Province are not my Miao people!"
"If the Miao people want to embark on a path of rapid development after the disaster, they must accelerate their integration with the outside world."
"Therefore, while each branch is recovering from the disaster, it should make several preparations."
Achen stood up, looked at the Miao people, and solemnly said:
"First, post-disaster epidemic prevention and disinfection! This is of utmost importance."
"Secondly, those Miao villages that have suffered natural disasters should not be rebuilt yet, but should wait for the overall arrangements."
"Third, speed up the recovery of Miao villages that are not severely damaged, but do not overdo the recovery, as your villages will need to be renovated eventually."
…
Ah Chen raised several points in a row.
Although all the chief leaders of each branch had written it down, one chief leader still asked:
"Ah Chen, your succession will be in three months. All our branches have suffered losses. We can't afford not to recover!"
"Yes, Ah Chen, time is a bit tight, but there are many of us, so we can definitely do it well. You don't need to worry."
…
The chieftains are overjoyed!
Despite the immense disaster, the Miao people have truly gained face. Although each village suffered different losses, no one was hurt.
Not only that, --
During the disaster relief efforts, although they didn't care, the reporters, media professionals, and even important figures from Lincheng all spoke highly of their future Miao King and Holy Maiden.
The Miao people are so strange. They don't care about the fame and fortune that the government officials talk about, but they care a lot about the fame and fortune of Achen and Amo.
In other words, during the disaster, --
The millions of Miao people did everything they could, risking their lives to carry out disaster relief in various counties. They didn't want any gratitude or praise, much less any reports.
The praise for the Miao King and the Holy Maiden has already proven everything.
Besides, all of this was thanks to Ah Chen.
However, in a few months, the soon-to-be Miao king will ascend the throne. The Miao people of Guizhou will not be so casual about it; they will celebrate in a grand and joyous manner.
But Ah Chen just smiled and shook his head, and even Ah Mo next to him said, "Let's all listen to Ah Chen's arrangements."
"Holy Maiden, --"
“Listen to Ah Chen! Otherwise, if you start building your village now, it will be time-consuming and laborious to renovate it later. What if some parts need to be demolished and rebuilt?”
"Huh? Rebuild?"
"What do you mean, Saintess?"
The chieftains were filled with curiosity and doubt, but Jiang Ya and Yang Ayao seemed to have sensed something. After exchanging a glance, --
His face was filled with shock!
