Chapter 298 Going to the Disaster Area
Emperor Jingxuan said, "Even so, the death of three people is still unbelievable."
"Isn't this just the second day? There must be some that we haven't had time to count."
Having said that, they were still very shocked.
This is a natural disaster. Even with some precautions, the number of casualties in the Great Qi disaster would be in the tens of thousands. This single-digit number is really too exaggerated.
The press conference continued, "The affected area of crops reached 700,000 hectares, 400,000 hectares were seriously damaged, and 16,000 hectares were completely lost. 16,500 houses collapsed, and houses were seriously damaged... The direct economic loss was 70 billion yuan."
"How many?!"
The people of the Daqi Dynasty felt that their brains were no longer enough.
So much land has been affected, what should the people do? They have planted so much land and now all the harvest has gone. How can they live in the future? They have lost their food and houses.
Some farmers who feel the same way have already begun to feel heartbroken. They feel extremely distressed when they think of the fields that have been destroyed.
Emperor Jingxuan looked solemn, "How will future generations resettle these disaster victims?"
After the Great Apocalypse, there will be more or less chaos on a small scale. It is normal for some people to steal and rob in order to survive.
If someone else fanned the flames, they would even rush to the government office, beat and kill officials, and become bandits.
Not to mention, after a disaster comes a pandemic...
Just as I finished thinking about this, I heard the news saying, "In order to ensure that 'there will be no major epidemics after major disasters', all disaster-stricken areas are actively carrying out epidemic prevention and disinfection work. Wang City has accumulated 100,000 disinfection points, covering an area of ... Since the disaster, caring organizations and caring people from all walks of life have extended a helping hand and donated money and materials. Up to now, according to incomplete statistics, the Provincial Charity Foundation, the Red Cross Society..."
When talking about the charity foundation, Chao Chao suddenly turned his head.
"Dad, do we have donations too?"
He Nanzhou smiled and said, "Yes, the Chaoyang Charity Foundation has already sent a large amount of supplies over. Chaochao, do you want to go and take a look?"
Chao Chao was surprised, "Can I go?"
"Yes, but the road traffic has not been restored yet. It is inconvenient to travel and it is easy to cause congestion for the rescue team, so we probably won't be able to go until tomorrow."
"good."
However, when these words came out, the people of the Daqi Dynasty frowned.
Many people began to blame He Nanzhou, "He actually wanted to take Chao Chao to the disaster area? That place is very chaotic, what if something happens?"
"That's right. It's not easy to get in and out of that place. Chaochao is so young, can't she just stay at home?"
"There are corpses everywhere in this kind of place. If you see it every morning, you will definitely have nightmares at night."
"Dads are unreliable when it comes to raising children. Where's Miss Jane? Let Miss Jane take a look."
Even Emperor Jingxuan disagreed. Even if the casualties were few, so many people had lost their homes, fields and property, and their emotions would definitely be unstable. If they met that irritable and angry person, who knows what he would do when he saw Chao Chao and the other two who were dressed neatly and cleanly.
Yu Kangsheng guessed, "Maybe he just took a quick look under the protection of his bodyguards."
It should be unlikely to go deep into the disaster area and among the victims.
In Daqi, even many local officials in the disaster-stricken areas did not dare to take such a risk.
Who knows when danger will come.
However, the next day, He Nanzhou took Chao Chao and headed straight to Yangtou County, which was the worst hit.
At this moment, the sky in Wangshi is clear and the sun has come out.
The water on the road has receded, and there are still many cleaners on the street cleaning up the mess, but many people have already gone out to work, and some shops on the street have also opened for business.
There are gradually more and more cars on the road. Although there are still few, traffic has resumed.
The people of the Daqi Dynasty were stunned. No, is this really the place that suffered from the flood two days ago?
It seemed as if nothing had happened, as if the sun had come out and the disaster was over. The children would not be in any danger if they went out.
No one looted the shops, and the cleaners were able to clean the streets in an orderly manner.
The news they saw on TV must be fake, right? Did Wang City really suffer from a flood?
No one answered their inner questions. Chao Chao and his group had gradually left the urban area of Wangshi and headed towards Yangtou County.
After leaving the city, the people of the Daqi Dynasty looked at the broken branches and leaves, dirt and mud, and all kinds of mess on both sides of the road, and finally realized that this flood was real and not a dream.
"Look at the collapsed houses over there, and the farmland, all washed away."
"Oh, I'm really heartbroken. When the flood came, everything was washed away."
"The road is clean now, and there is no problem for cars to travel. But there doesn't seem to be many people fleeing the famine on this road. Could it be that all the disaster victims have been stopped in the county town?"
"It's only been two or three days since the disaster. It's not that fast to flee."
The people of Daqi Dynasty were talking about it. He Nanzhou's car had already arrived at Yangtou County.
Although the city has been repaired gradually after being hit by the flood, it is indeed much worse than Wangcheng.
Almost all the shops on the street were closed, but there were quite a few people coming and going. However, they were basically rescue and construction workers, who were in a hurry and seemed very busy.
The bodyguard driving the car said to He Nanzhou and the others, "Currently, some of the victims are being housed in the gymnasium, which is the closest. Mr. He, are we going to the gymnasium now?"
"Go ahead." He Nanzhou glanced at his phone, "The Chaoyang Charity Foundation's vehicle delivering supplies is also heading that way."
"yes."
The car turned and headed towards the intersection on the left.
The people under the sky were boiling with excitement.
"What do you mean? They are actually going to resettle the disaster victims? Just take a look. They only bring two bodyguards with them. Are they really not afraid of danger?"
"Even if it's for the sake of reputation, Mr. He should just go by himself. Chao Chao is so young, she won't be able to react if there's danger, why bring her along?"
Someone whispered, "We have Ah Shan right here, what are we afraid of?"
No matter how heated their discussion was, the car eventually stopped outside the gymnasium.
This is the gymnasium in the county town. It is located at a relatively high altitude and has a large area, so it can accommodate quite a lot of people.
At this time, there were several awnings outside the gymnasium, with a lot of water and food placed inside. Volunteers were registering and distributing the water and food, and then moving the boxes into the gymnasium.
He Nanzhou took Chao Chao out of the car. One of the bodyguards walked towards the manager not far away and explained the situation. The latter glanced in He Nanzhou's direction, a smile instantly appeared on his face, and he strode towards them.
