Everyone thinks that I created cultivation
Chapter 9
Before the night had completely faded, the county office was already busy.
The yamen servant hurriedly walked through the rain curtain to the guest room, raised his hand to knock on the door, but the door suddenly opened from the inside.
He was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and shouted. "Liu Anshou, you have already got up?! That's great! The county magistrate asked me to take you to the main hall for discussion!"
The dense rain covered up the loud voice a lot, and every word of the yamen servant could still be heard clearly within a few meters.
"Let's go!" Liu Yu responded immediately, turned around and closed the door.
He was awakened by thunder in the middle of the night, listening to the increasingly dense rain outside the window, and could no longer fall asleep.When the sky was just dawn, he couldn't help getting up, waiting for the county magistrate to summon him, and now he wouldn't hesitate a bit.
On the way, the wind and rain hit the face, and the yamen servants did not forget to complete their tasks. "Liu Anshou, Your Excellency has arranged for your family to go to pick up your family. I think you will be able to reunite your family in an hour or two! Your Excellency is very kind to Liu Anshou, and Liu Anshou must not let you down!"
The first sentence is the message that the county magistrate ordered to inform Liu Yu, and the second sentence is the yamen servant's own thoughts.
"Definitely." Liu Yu nodded in response.
What the county magistrate wants most now is a way for Liuning County to survive the flood, and so does he.The request he made at the risk before will surely achieve something soon.
After that, the two didn't speak any more.
Stepping into the main hall, the yamen servant gave a salute to the county magistrate, "My lord, bring the Liu case here."
"Grassman Liu Yu has met the county magistrate!"
"Give me a seat!" Magistrate Liu's eyes lit up when he saw Liu Yu approaching.
The magistrate Liu's attitude towards Liu Yu made other people couldn't help but look at Liu Yu more.Everyone is familiar with Liu Yu's name as the chief of the case, but under the current circumstances, a chief of the case would not make County Magistrate Liu so eager.There were several literati present who were more famous than Liu Yu, but none of them received similar treatment.
As soon as Liu Yu sat down firmly, he couldn't help but said, "Master County Magistrate, judging from the rain last night, the water in Fengjiang River will rise a lot again, but it won't break the embankment. Could it be that you summoned us to discuss this time because of other reasons?" The area is the first to have floods?!"
As soon as Liu Yu opened his mouth, everyone understood why Liu Yu received special treatment from the magistrate Liu.
Although literati have been regarded with respect since ancient times, no one is dissatisfied with the treatment of a young man like Liu Yu at this moment, but quite a few people look at him with somewhat expectant eyes, wanting to hear what this young man has to say.
"That's right." Hearing Liu Yu's words, County Magistrate Liu had more expectations for him. "Early this morning, some warriors brought news that Guhe County upstream was the first to experience flooding."
"The terrain of Guhe County is relatively low in several counties and counties near the river, and it has been raining for five or six consecutive days. As soon as the heavy rain started yesterday, Jiangti in Guhe County was overwhelmed. It only took one or two hours, and most of the Guhe County has been soaked in water, and the flood is still spreading."
"This kind of flood is beyond the reach of human beings, and there is no better way than to relocate the people." Liu Yu said here and looked up at the county magistrate Liu. Already arranged. "The people in Guhe County should have moved ahead of time?"
Magistrate Liu nodded, confirming Liu Yu's guess. "That's right, because of the early preparations, the casualties in Guhe County were minimal, but other losses were unavoidable."
"There is a flood in Guhe County. You must have issued an order early in the morning to guide the people to relocate. What summoned everyone to come here for discussion should not be to stop the water, but how to deal with the people."
Liu Yu recalled the topography of several nearby counties, "Among the counties near the river, our Liuning County has the highest terrain and is adjacent to Anfeng Mountain. The refugees from Guhe County will most likely migrate to our Liuning County."
"If the rain doesn't stop, there will be floods in the other counties. At that time, our Liuning County will need to arrange not only the people in the county, but also the victims of the disaster in the other counties."
Liu Yu looked at Shangliu county magistrate, "If my guess is correct, the most troublesome thing for the county magistrate should be the food problem."
"That's right!" County Magistrate Liu couldn't help standing up, "We also hid a batch of grain in Anfeng Mountain just in case. But we didn't expect that there would be so many areas covered by floods. At that time, in order to avoid The people panicked, and they kept avoiding the population when delivering food, and there were not many deliveries each time. Although these days have never stopped, the amount of food delivered now is only enough for the people of Liuning County for ten days and a half months."
"The common people will bring some rations with them when fleeing. Anfeng Mountain is also a natural treasure house, and organizing manual hunting will also yield some gains." Master Hu quickly added.
"The rations they brought with them can only be said to be better than nothing. From the situation in our Liuning County, it is not difficult to see that there are only a few people who can participate in hunting. Even if there are sergeants and government servants, it is impossible to meet the needs of so many people." Liu County Ling didn't ignore these two sources of food, but he didn't mention them because they couldn't change the situation.
"The grain masters in the granaries in the county have sent people to rush them to Anfeng Mountain, and the grain merchants have also sent people to talk. Even if these are counted and distributed to the population of several counties, it can only be guaranteed that there will be no food within eight or nine days. Because of the food problem, civilian casualties occurred." Master Hu looked sad.
"Everyone is here to discuss this matter. Some people suggested that advanced warriors contact the nearby counties to deliver food to the mountain, and they also sent people to ask for help from Jiang'an County on the other side of Anfeng Mountain. I have already arranged for people to do it. Besides, is there a good strategy?!" Magistrate Liu looked at Liu Yu expectantly.
Liu Yu received Magistrate Liu's gaze, and couldn't help showing a wry smile on his face.What can he do?Most of the flooding techniques that Magistrate Liu heard before came from Mu Jin, and he was at most a messenger.
Although Mu Jin's ability is strong, he still can't make food for nothing.At least it will take more than a month for the flood to stabilize, and eight or nine days is too much time.Not to mention that these eight or nine days are just to ensure that people will not starve to death!
Can't you starve to death? !
Liu Yu suddenly thought of the elixir that Mu Jin had mentioned.
After coming down from the mountain, Mu Jin asked him to buy a lot of medical books, and he would also play with some very common medicinal herbs and some not-so-common weeds in the yard.
Liu Yu was very puzzled by this, and asked Mu Jin why he played with these useless things.Mu Jin said that medicinal herbs are more mysterious than he imagined.Many seemingly ordinary medicinal materials and even weeds can become eye-catching elixir when combined.
A powerful elixir, just a little smell, can hang people's lives, even if they don't eat or drink for ten and a half months, they can't starve to death!
Can't you starve to death if you don't eat or drink for ten days and a half? !Isn't this exactly what they need now? !Now that we are facing a catastrophe, how can everyone ask for enough food and drink? As long as people don't starve to death, they are lucky.
Liu Yu stood up from his seat, and everyone present couldn't help but follow suit, and the anticipation in their eyes was even stronger.
"Case chief Liu, don't you really have a good plan?!" County magistrate Liu couldn't hide the surprise on his face.
Liu Yu looked at the magistrate of Shangliu, thought about his so-called good strategy, and lowered his head slightly. "I'm afraid the county magistrate will be disappointed this time."
Everyone sank with anticipation, but County Magistrate Liu looked at Liu Yu and reacted thoughtfully. "That's all for today's discussion. Everyone, go back first and think about it carefully. If anyone thinks of a way, you can come to the study to find me directly! Chief Liu, follow me first."
"Yes." Liu Yu followed County Magistrate Liu to the study, the two of them were silent all the way.
County magistrate Liu watched Liu Yu close the study door, lowered his voice, "Speak, what can you do?"
"Master County Magistrate..." Liu Yu just wanted to prevaricate, but County Magistrate Liu noticed it.
"If you have no choice, it is impossible to lose your temper in the main hall. You don't want to mention it in the main hall. Could it be that the plan is not perfect and needs further confirmation? It doesn't matter if it is not perfect, let's confirm it together." Not long after we met, I had some understanding of his character.
"You have to know that this matter is related to the people of several counties, and you must not hide your secrets! If your method is effective, I will definitely ask for credit for you when Liuning County survives this catastrophe. With this great merit, Once you are selected, you will have a bright future."
"Master County Magistrate, it's not that I don't want to say it, but that you won't believe me if I tell you." Liu Yu had a bit of helplessness on his face. "However, I can tell my lord. If the method I think works... no matter how much food there is, no one in these villages will starve to death!"
County magistrate Liu stared at Liu Yu, not knowing whether to believe this seemingly unbelievable statement at all. "Are you serious?!"
"I need to make sure of one thing! If it works, then we don't need to worry about man-made disasters after natural disasters. If not, Liu County Magistrate, you should make preparations!" Liu Yu trusts Mu Jin very much. Since Mu Jin said If the powerful elixir can suspend life, then it can definitely be done.
The biggest question now is whether Mu Jin has a 'powerful elixir' in his hands.
Liu Yu was [-]-[-]% certain in his heart, but he still didn't dare to make absolute guarantees.
County magistrate Liu circled around Liu Yu twice, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, "I believe you won't let me down. From today on, just ask for anything you need. Even if you want to mobilize all the officials in this county government I will give you the right too! As long as you can keep the people affected by the disaster."
"I will try my best, but it may not be enough." Liu Yu did not forget to leave some leeway for himself.
County magistrate Liu calmed down his slightly agitated emotions, and nodded. "I see."
"Then I'll make sure..." Liu Yu looked outside the door.
"Go quickly." County magistrate Liu opened the door for Liu Yu himself.
Liu Yu glanced back at the study room, then went straight out of the yamen, and didn't come back until it was already dark.
"Officer Liu, you are back! Your family has been arranged in the guest room next to you." Seeing Liu Yu's figure, the yamen servant hurriedly said.
"Thank you, Brother Yamen, I'll go and have a look."
Liu Yu suppressed his temper, first took a look at his mother, and then knocked on Mu Jin's door.
"Come in." Mu Jin put the books on the table.
Liu Yu inadvertently saw the pictures in the book, and was a little more sure about the existence of the elixir. "Senior, this junior wants to inquire about something."
"Say it straight."
"You said before that the elixir that can hang your life for ten or twenty days just by smell, does it really exist?"
"nature."
"Do you have such an elixir in your hand?" Liu Yu couldn't help but get nervous even though he was somewhat sure in his heart.
"What do you think?" Mu Jin's lips curled slightly.
When Liu Yu saw Mu Jin smiling, his nervousness miraculously dissipated without a trace. "There must be. You have been preparing for this flood, and you have been mentioning it to me before. When you mentioned the effect of the elixir, you emphasized hanging life instead of other strange effects. It must be because you expected the aftermath of the natural disaster. A possible human disaster."
"Right or wrong." Mu Jin looked at Liu Yu who became nervous again because of his words, and continued. "I do have the elixir to hang my life, but I can't hang my life just by smell."
Liu Yu relaxed again, and couldn't help but smile on his face. "When is senior going to make a move?"
"I will give you the elixir at that time." Mu Jin picked up the medical book on the table again, "I don't want to be disturbed for the time being."
"..." Liu Yu had guessed about this for a long time, but after hearing it, he still couldn't help being entangled. "It's just that in this way, many people will not be able to know the credit of your senior."
"Good deeds and good results are determined by God. What is the use of credit in the eyes of others?" Mu Jin's tone was quite indifferent.
Liu Yu looked at Mu Jin with more admiration.Many people claim to be indifferent to fame and wealth, but how many people can really do it?
"You can leave now, don't arouse others' suspicion." Mu Jin ordered to evict the guest.
"Farewell, junior." Liu Yu bowed his head and exited the room.
Mu Jin glanced at the re-closed door, the corners of his lips deepened a little.
Some people always prefer to believe what they have discovered, rather than the obvious appearance.
The yamen servant hurriedly walked through the rain curtain to the guest room, raised his hand to knock on the door, but the door suddenly opened from the inside.
He was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and shouted. "Liu Anshou, you have already got up?! That's great! The county magistrate asked me to take you to the main hall for discussion!"
