Chapter 837: Rainbow After the Storm

[End of the God Station] Remind book friends to keep in mind: Website URL: www.xinwanben.com Remember in a second, never lose it!

It rained heavily for several days.

Finally, like a gift from heaven, it was finally over.

In the Forbidden City.

The imperial horse inspector Zhang Zhaotian was already in a state of desperation.

He inspected the various palaces, and the losses in each palace were not small.

The Palace of Caution has collapsed. This is an extremely serious matter. After all, this is still after repairs. Once it is investigated, many people will be unlucky.

There are also a lot of repairs in other palaces.

The most feared thing in this wooden palace is heavy rain, and there are continuous storms. Although he is the eunuch of the Yumajian, because he is the second person in the palace, most of the repairs of the palace are done by him. Responsible.

Zhang Zhaotian became anxious, and after counting the losses, he was even more taken aback. If the Forbidden City were to be repaired, it would cost hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.

Zhang Zhaotian was in a daze.

But the news quickly spread like wildfire.

Liu Jian had just recovered from a serious illness, but he was in a hurry.

There have been rumors outside that something happened to Daming Palace.

problem occurs……

All civil and military officials are in a hurry.

I didn't see His Majesty for several days, God knows what happened.

Seeing that after the heavy rain, there is a rainbow in the sky.

But the stagnant water did not recede.

Many ministers gathered in Shuntian Mansion by coincidence. It seemed that only in Shuntian Mansion could they find out the news.

Seeing Liu Gong, Xie Gong and other court officials arriving at the same time, the governor of Shuntian Mansion couldn't laugh or cry, he hurriedly said: "At the Daming Palace, the lower officials have urged four groups of guards to go, but there has been no news from the third group of guards so far. It has been two or three days, and I haven't come back. There are still a group of people who came back early in the morning. They said that the river flooded and the bridge was washed away. In addition to the heavy rain, the river was turbulent. It was too risky for ordinary boats to cross, and the rain stopped. Let's talk."

Liu Jian thought that there was news from Shuntian Mansion, but when he heard it, he couldn't help being disappointed.

Everyone else was in a hurry.

Liu Zhengjing and Wang Bushi were among them, sighing.

However, Wang Bushi's face was even more anxious.

As for Liu Zhengjing, she was only worried about the Daming Palace and seemed calmer.

"My lords, my lords, I heard that the Yumajian sent a battalion of warriors to go to the Daming Palace, and they also confiscated several large ships..."

Someone flew in.

After Liu Jian listened, he looked at everyone worriedly. He was very anxious. Liu Jian said: "The old man will follow."

When the others heard this, they said one after another, "Let's go together."

Especially people like Wang Bushi, when they go up, they worry about the king, and when they go down, they worry about their own house.

That house, nine out of ten, is gone, what a bullshit Xincheng, a damn liar.

Liu Jian didn't say anything, he got up, and everyone stepped into the mud together, one deep and one shallow, and in some places, the flood was up to his knees, and there were countless rubbish floating in the water. There was a foul stench.

The crowd didn't hesitate any more, they bit the bullet and went into the water. After leaving the outer city, it was even more terrifying. Some guards prepared small boats, and all the officials boarded the boat one after another. This journey was really extremely difficult.

Wang Bushi's heart...is hopeless.

wanna die.

He just wanted to take a look at his house and the two acres of land. Now... it should have been flooded.

Of course, if something unexpected happened to His Majesty, it would be really bad, and he wanted to die even more.

Liu Zhengjing and Wang Bushi are actually quite acquainted. He and Wang Bushi were in the same boat, so he couldn't help comforting him: "Back then, Wang Shi was supposed to cut off his wrists when he was studying, but now, how can he be so troubled..."

Wang Bushi lowered his head, curled up on the boat, gritted his teeth, his eyes were red, and he didn't make a sound.

Liu Zhengjing patted him on the back, wanting to comfort him, but couldn't speak.

This group of people started to set off early in the morning, almost wading through mountains and rivers all the way, and at noon, they were still far away from Daming Palace.

However, after leaving the city, they joined the Warrior Battalion, and with the help of officers and soldiers, the situation improved a little.

Zhang Zhaotian, the eunuch in charge of the imperial horse supervisor, was full of thoughts. He and Liu Jian were fairly familiar. This time, Zhang Zhaotian personally led the troops, so he came to greet Liu Jian.

Liu Jian glanced at him: "I heard that the Palace of Prudence has collapsed?"

Zhang Zhaotian nodded: "Yes..."

Liu Jian smiled wryly in his heart, the capital has become a swamp country, the imperial court does not know how much food relief it needs, and now in this palace, I am afraid it will be...

"Loss geometry."

"If you want to repair it, at least 400,000 taels of silver..."

Liu Jian: "..."

Xie Qian was beside him, and couldn't help but said: "Even if it is a natural disaster, why is it so, you should explain to His Majesty yourself."

Zhang Zhaotian couldn't help but said: "What does this have to do with slaves? It's really a natural disaster, not a man-made disaster. Besides, with such a heavy wind and rain, which mansion in Beijing is good? This...it's justifiable. Second Duke, Your Majesty has a lot of trust in you, please speak kindly to Second Duke."

Liu Jian looked at him, just shook his head and smiled wryly.

Zhang Zhaotian is a low-key person, but he is actually a good eunuch, at least as the eunuch with the palm seal of the Yumajian, he still gives people a good impression.

But... good words... How did you get the four hundred thousand taels of silver?

Seeing this, Zhang Zhaotian couldn't help but said, "What's more... the servant wants to

Come on, Daming Palace is probably even worse now... The Forbidden City has been hit so badly..."

"Stop talking nonsense, let's go now."

"Yes, yes." Zhang Zhaotian also felt that he had made a slip of the tongue, as if he was hoping for something to happen to the Daming Palace, he just said something because he was in a hurry...

………………

The damage from Xishan to Xincheng was not serious, although it was muddy, so when the rain stopped, Fang Jifan rushed to Xincheng without even eating breakfast.

Xincheng is his lifeblood.

His wealth and life were thrown into it.

I still hope that the Fang family can rely on this to feed a thousand generations. If something happens, because of this rare natural disaster in three hundred years, the new city will be frustrated, will anyone buy a house in the future?

Zhu Houzhao was more anxious than Fang Jifan.

He couldn't figure out how much debt he owed, if the creditor went to his father, his father would definitely kill him.

The two hurried to Xincheng.

And here in the new city... Looking around, there are houses with frames that have already been built, and some of the roads that have been built are still intact except for the mess.

Countless artisans who have nowhere to go have been hiding in the built houses to avoid the rain for the past few days. Now that the sky has cleared, they come out one after another.

Because of the torrential rain, there were broken tree branches and gravel and grass clippings flying from nowhere.

Some scaffolding fell down.

As for... stagnant water...

Strange to say, apart from small puddles, there is no big stagnant water.

Ever since, the craftsmen started to get busy.

The construction period has been delayed for so many days, which is not considered wages. Xishan Jianye pays wages very generously. One day less work means one less day of money.

Therefore, everyone took the initiative to start cleaning up the new city.

In this newly built house, although decoration has not yet started, there are basically no signs of dilapidation inside.

On the one hand, this is a complete masonry structure, and relatively strong concrete is used. Moreover, there is no water accumulation. It should be known that water accumulation is fundamental to the damage of the building, especially the wooden structure. God, it won't be long before the foundation of this building is almost finished.

What's more, because of the concrete, the foundation is firmly laid.

To some extent, hollow bricks have also contributed.

The hollow brick structure is not worse than the solid brick.

Not only that, but it is also more soundproof and easier to keep warm.

And because of its lightness, although there is a strong external force, the entire frame will not be squeezed and deformed.

And deal with stagnant water.

But it was the sewers planned in the new city in advance that made great efforts.

Although the rain is heavy, the sewers may not be able to withstand the once-in-three-hundred-year rainstorm, but after all, there are channels for the rainwater to drain. In the early morning, there was indeed a lot of water on the ground, but Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao rushed over At the time, it has basically been excreted cleanly.

And after a while of cleaning by the craftsmen, in the blink of an eye, the thousands of mansions and government offices that were under construction in the new city at the same time seemed to have no signs of experiencing such strong winds and torrential rains.

Immediately afterwards, 60,000 to 70,000 craftsmen and coolies began to get busy again.

People started mixing concrete again, or digging foundations, or went to distant kilns to transport building materials such as ceramic tiles and hollow bricks.

Everything is in order.

The clearing of the roads, on the contrary, gave the criss-crossing newly built roads a new look. The asphalt paved half a month ago was as good as new after being washed by a shower of rain.

Fang Jifan heaved a long sigh of relief when he saw that there was no major problem. In the distance was the Daming Palace, and the Daming Palace seemed to be fine, even the towering bell tower still stood proudly.

Zhu Houzhao breathed a long sigh of relief: "It's terrible. Fortunately, I have accumulated some virtue recently. If not, if something goes wrong in this new city, I will have to die to thank the world."

Fang Jifan thought to himself, you will not die, after all you have such a thick skin.

But...Fang Jifan's mood also brightened: "Yes, it's good that nothing happened. To be honest, the reason for this is that everyone is simple and honest, and everyone is a real person."

This is the truth, Fang Jifan's profits are extremely high, so he can spare no expense in building roads and houses.

And the craftsmen of this era give them a full meal and a little salary, they are grateful, consciously this is a good day, hard-won, and they are willing to work hard.

Naturally, it is also inseparable from a group of hard-headed students from the Engineering College under Xishan Academy. They almost always construct according to the drawings, and their supervision is not bad.

After all... as a student, he hasn't learned how to cheat.

As they said, Fang Jifan and Zhu Houzhao had already entered the new city, and immediately recruited a group of foremen and students, and began to arrange the regulations for the next construction. Such a huge project, but there must be no mistakes, and it is necessary to organize 60,000 to 70,000 people work together, which is not easy.

Fang Jifan was facing the blueprint, with his chin resting on his side, and began to listen to the reports from the students, probably the loss after the heavy rain this time.
