Chapter 302 Earthquake 3
The people who were invited out also included Haitang, Xiao Mudan and Xiao Guaner. It was also their first time experiencing an earthquake. The three of them huddled together, trembling with fear.
"It's over now. Why is there an earthquake here? What should we do? Will we..." Xiao Mudan's voice was filled with fear, but before she could finish her words, she was stopped by Xiao Wu, who had excellent hearing.
"Shut up! Be careful with your words! With us protecting the princess, how could anything possibly happen?"
Xiao Gong'er and Haitang hurriedly covered Xiao Mudan's mouth, "Yes, yes, yes! Of course nothing will happen. The princess is blessed with great fortune, and we will definitely be safe and sound!"
Little Mudan then realized what she had said out of fear. Her face turned pale with fright and she looked at Su Wanyan with tears in her eyes.
When Su Wanyan heard Xiao Wu's shout, she thought of the three of them. She looked over, smiled at them, and comforted them, "Don't be afraid, everything will be fine."
The house may collapse only if the earthquake is above level four. Their house has a fine structure, so there should be no problem unless there is an earthquake of level seven or eight.
There is a seismometer in her space. She will take it out and test it when no one is around.
Ordinary people's houses are mostly thatched houses and wooden structures, and their earthquake resistance is relatively poor. That is why Long Gao said that there have been casualties in some places in the city.
With this earthquake, there might be shortages and insufficient supply of medicines and supplies in the city. It is inevitable that some people will raise prices again. It is a good opportunity for her to clear out the supplies stored in the space.
Long Gao and He Bo had discussed a countermeasure and were about to leave after bidding farewell to the little princess when Su Wanyan suddenly called out to him, "Shopkeeper Long, please stay."
Long Gao immediately bowed and said, "Your Majesty, please give me your instructions."
Su Wanyan thought for a moment, motioned for him to come closer, and whispered a few words in his ear in a very low voice. Long Gao's eyes changed from surprise to excitement in just two breaths.
"Your Majesty is indeed smart. Please rest assured, I will definitely see to it." After saying this, he strode onto his horse and went back.
Xiaowu and Bo looked at each other. They both had good hearing. What the little princess and Long Gao said just now was not something they wanted to hide from them, but they didn't want the three people who were huddled together for warmth to know.
While Xiaowu was pulling everyone to set up the tent, Hebo walked over to the little princess and said, "Your Majesty, I heard you just told Longgao to do something. Your Majesty is so lucky to have such a virtuous wife like you."
Su Wanyan waved her hand, looking noble and upright, and said calmly, "We are all family, and as family, we should naturally work together. Hebo, there is no need to be polite to me."
She had just instructed Long Gao to go back and ask him to gather all of Ji Xiaohan's small shops in Quanzhou, prepare to sell clothes, food and daily necessities, keep the prices the same and not raise them, to help the people get through the difficulties after the earthquake tonight.
Moreover, people had to be sent to the store entrance to vigorously publicize Ji Xiaohan's good points and win people's hearts.
In ancient times, earthquakes were often considered an ominous sign. People believed that this was God's dissatisfaction with their emperor and a punishment from God.
It just so happened that Ji Xiaohan was leading his troops to force the dog emperor to abdicate. If she helped Ji Xiaohan seize such a good opportunity, then when Ji Xiaohan knew about it, she would slip away to make a living in the world or be surrounded by beauties...wouldn't he bother with her?
