Chapter 102 Disaster Relief
The weather in May suddenly became very strange. In previous years, it was sunny, but this year it rained for half a month. The sky was covered with dark clouds, and it seemed as if it had entered late autumn, not midsummer. On the weekend, Yi Huan did not leave school to Yi Xin, but stayed in the dormitory to review and prepare for next week's exam.
Zhu Yunxiu no longer had to be on the verge of people like in the past few months. She went out to the street, while Su Yuting and Lin Ruan went to their relatives' house. In the evening, Zhu Yunxiu came back and said, "The clinics on the street are overcrowded."
"It's easier to get sick because the weather is so wet and cold." Yi Huan replied casually.
"It's not a cold or fever, I heard it's diarrhea, and I can't stop taking medicine and injections." Zhu Yunxiu deliberately used this to test Yi Huan.
Yi Huan flipped through a page of the book and said, "I guess I'm eating spoiled food. In this kind of weather, the food is prone to spoilage."
"I heard that some people were almost half their life. It was so pitiful. If someone could cure this disease, it would be cured." Zhu Yunxiu continued to test.
"The doctor will find a way." Yi Huan said in a faint tone.
Zhu Yunxiu bit the corner of his lips, "It's so pitiful to see the children's legs that are weak and crying silently in their mothers' arms."
Yi Huan's hand paused for a moment when she flipped through the book. She pulled so hard, was it dysentery? There are many types of dysentery, such as damp and heat dysentery, epidemic dysentery, cold and damp dysentery, yin deficiency dysentery, deficiency and cold dysentery, rest dysentery. I don't know which type of dysentery that breaks out of sleepless city? She is just a pharmacist, not a doctor, only knows how to make medicine and cannot see a doctor. Besides, Chinese medicine is far away in China, and it cannot be dissolved in the near fire. However, sulfonamide drugs can be adjusted more, and antibacterial is absolutely correct.
Yi Huan decided to make up her mind and continued reading. Zhu Yunxiu tentatively a few more words, and found that Yi Huan didn't answer her words, her eyes flashed slightly.
It was sunny one day, and it started to rain again the next day, and it was wet everywhere. The dryer downstairs for students to dry clothes was broken because they were used too much. The clothes could only be hung indoors, and the drying smell was always drying. Because Zhu Yunxiu had been rushing to keep an eye on people, Yi Huan couldn't find a chance to call, and now she didn't have a cell phone, so she asked her to hide in the bathroom to send messages. Fortunately, Sister Cui passed the message for her, "Sister Cui, go back and call Dunsson, and said it was my intention, and asked him to send five thousand bags of sulfa medicine to the city that never sleeps. I have an urgent need."
"I understand, Miss." Sister Cui replied.
This matter has been resolved, and Yi Huan is still concentrating on class review. This makes Zhu Yunxiu very anxious. Is the information wrong? Isn't she the one?
The city never sleeps and there are indeed dysentery, but not many drugs that can be treated. The five thousand packets of sulfa medicine sent by Dunlson were dropped from the bucket, and someone had already been dehydrated and died. Yi Huan did not pay much attention to this matter. She learned from Xu Jinluo that in China, from spring, there was continuous drought in the north and famine became more and more serious.
Yan Zihui has tried his best to adjust food and rescue disasters, but the disaster-stricken areas are too large, and there are too many people who are affected. The bark of the tree has been stripped and eaten. No one has buried the dead along the way. The bodies are exposed to the wilderness. The seedlings in the fields are withered and there is no green at all. The villages and towns are sparsely populated, the houses are decaying, and a withered scenery.
When the north suffered drought, the south was not peaceful. The flood that was rare in a century affected more than ten provinces and tens of millions of people were affected. Last year, the Hudong Army and the Southern Guangdong Army fought a war, which led to poor harvests and soared grain prices. If the war was not fought this year, the people were looking forward to a bumper harvest year. Who knew that during the summer harvest season, floods flooded, tens of millions of people were displaced, and they could not collect the government's taxes.
"Don't worry, I'll find a way to buy some food and transport it back to China." Yi Huan said in a deep voice.
"I contacted Mr. Situ from the Hongmen Zhigongtang, and he would also find a way." Xu Jinluo continued.
Yi Huan laughed and said, "There are many people and the power is great, and this famine will be overcome."
Citigroup’s agricultural products are not expensive now. A bushel of wheat is only sold for twenty cents. It only costs more than four yuan to buy 200 kilograms of wheat. Corn is even cheaper, and 200 kilograms of corn only costs twelve cents. In order to save more people, Yi Huan decided to buy corn in large quantities.
The person Yi Huan is looking for is Yake Cal, "Yake Cal, my country is suffering from a famine. I need to buy a large amount of corn and transport it back to save people."
Yakli thought for a while and asked, “How much do you need?”
"The more you have, the better." Yi Huan replied.
"No problem." Akli smiled.
Yakeli opened a ranch. He knew many farmers, but he didn't even need a middleman, so the price was even cheaper. Yi Huan bought a total of 200,000 tons of corn, which cost only 160,000 yuan. The money was not much for buying grain, but the freight was a bit expensive. Because the price was cheap, farmers in Citigroup were unwilling to pay the freight, so Xu Jinluo arranged for people to buy it at home. Citigroup's domestic purchase and transportation, plus the shipping fee for shipping to China, cost 30,000 yuan.
When the first batch of 90,000 tons of corn was transported to China, Yi Huan ended her third semester final exam, and the dysentery in the City of No Sleeping was also controlled, and fewer and fewer people had diarrhea. Zhu Yunxiu went to see her cobbler, "This Yi Huan is very patriotic. She donated 200,000 tons of corn to rescue the disaster. She didn't care about the dysentery in the City of No Sleeping."
"We have another news that Yi Huan has something to do with Yan Zihui of the Northeast Army. Yan Zihui is the enemy of the empire, but he is guarded tightly and cannot get close to him. This is a good opportunity. You can lurk beside her." The headman said.
"If she doesn't return to China, I won't be able to contact Yan Zihui." Zhu Yunxiu got nothing beside Yi Huan. This was a very sad thing for a young spy who was eager to make contributions.
"You just said that she is very patriotic, so she will definitely return to China after she finishes her studies. Of course, if you are not at ease, you can also test her to see if she will return to China." The headman said.
"What if she doesn't return to China?" Zhu Yunxiu asked.
The headman frowned and said, "If she doesn't return to China, I will send you another task."
After receiving this sentence, Zhu Yunxiu left with satisfaction.
Yi Huan didn't attend the June graduation prom, so she didn't have to go to school, but she still left the door and William called her to ask her out for coffee.
"I'm here to say goodbye to you." William smiled.
"Where are you going?" Yi Huan asked. William graduated from university last year and worked in the government department of the city that never sleeps.
"Washington, Air Force General Staff." William told the truth.
"A good place." Yi Huan raised her cup, "Raise you step by step."
"Thank you." William smiled.
"Can you ask for your help when changing the flight club to a new plane?" Yi Huan asked with a smile.
"Happy to serve." William smiled.
The two chatted for a while, and William sent Yi Huan back, and Yi Xin enthusiastically kept him for supper.
William's departure had no effect on Yi Huan's life. She still went to the exchange every morning, went to the food shop at noon, and sometimes went to the fashion store to sit in the afternoon, which made Zhu Yunxiu who was following him so depressed. This person's life was too regular, right?
On that day, Zhu Yunxiu finally found out that Yi Huan had met an oriental man. She was so excited that she almost stepped on the air, but she couldn't get into the store, so she could only stand outside and stare. Xu Jin looked at Yi Huan in a little astonishment, "Miss Yi, do you think this second batch of grain is to be transported to Shanghai City?"
"The south has also suffered a disaster." Yi Huan said calmly.
"But that's the territory of the Hudong Army." Xu Jinluo reminded her.
"Adminton Xu, can the Northeast Army only stay in the Northeast? Is the Northeast Army going to divide the river from the East Army? Why don't you think about the Northeast Army unifying China? The south is also a Chinese citizen." Yi Huan asked.
Xu Jin was stunned for a moment, "Miss Yi, you... are you so optimistic about the Northeast Army?" Although the Northeast Army in China is the most powerful, it is not easy to have the Western Army of Jin, the East Army of the Shanghai Army, the Southern Guangdong Army, and the Newcomer Army of the Newcomer. It is not easy to unify China by surrounding the great powers.
Yi Huan's eyes fluttered, she raised the corners of her lips and said, "I have confidence in Yan Zihui."
Xu Jin smiled slightly, Seventh Master had a good vision!
After the two separated, Zhu Yunxiu did not follow Yi Huan, but stared at Xu Jinluo. Xu Jinluo was a well-trained soldier and immediately noticed him. He touched the dagger in his pants, and a killing intention flashed in his eyes. Xu Jinluo was thinking of leading Zhu Yunxiu to a remote place, but met several patrol policemen. His eyes were slightly sunken, he accelerated his pace, turned left and right, and threw Zhu Yunxiu.
Zhu Yunxiu stood on the street, looking around, where is the person? Where has the person gone? She had no idea that she had been walking around the gate of hell. If she hadn't been worried about the fact that it was Citi Country, killing people and not being able to deal with the body, Xu Jinluo had already taken action to get rid of her.
The next day, the second batch of 60,000 tons of grain was on board, left the dock, and headed to Shanghai City. On June 16, there were crowds of people on the dock in Jingu. Human resources cranes unloaded bags of grain to the shore, and porters lined up to transport them.
In order to give the victims confidence to survive the famine, Yan Zihui specially sent someone to promote it. Someone on the dock was holding a loudspeaker and shouting: "Hongmen Zhigongtang and all Chinese people donated 300,000 tons of corn to the affected compatriots in China, and Mr. Yi Qicheng personally donated 200,000 tons of corn! The first batch of 90,000 tons of grain has arrived in Shanghai. I wish my country and the people who are affected will survive the disaster as soon as possible!"
Although Yi Huan donated in the name of her father, the Hudong Army still received the news, and Sun Guangyuan took the telegram, "Yan Zi is really amazing to reply to that woman. She got back ten planes last year and so much food this year. This time, Hongmen organized so many people and only donated 300,000 tons, and she donated 200,000 tons by herself."
"I thought Yan Zihui was very capable, but she just relied on a woman's fair face." Chen Zehang said with a gloomy face.
Sun Guangyuan touched his chin, "The governor wants to marry the Yan family."
"Who and who?" Chen Zehang was very resistant to the marriage, which is why he has not been married yet.
"The Governor wants to marry the fourth lady to Yan Zihui." Sun Guangyuan replied.
"No wonder Yan Zhiquan's birthday is about 60 this time, and he wants to go and congratulate him in person." Chen Zehang sneered. As far as he knew, Mrs. Yan attaches great importance to legitimate and illegitimate children. Even if the old man asked his mother to recognize Chen Zhiqu in his name, it would not change the fact that she was born to her aunt.
As long as he is not allowed to marry, Chen Zehang will not care too much about other people. What he is worried about now is food. Yan Zihui had a good woman to raise food for him, but he did not have the good luck. The people sent to Yingguo have not convinced the people of Yingguo, and they don’t know when the food will be transported.
It is not only the Chen family who wants to marry the Yan family, but also the sworn brother Jiang Xuwu of Governor Yan. "Brother, we are sworn brothers, so why don't we go further and be a couple in-laws, what do you think?"
Yan Zihui's face suddenly became gloomy. Governor Yan was very happy. Yan Zihui was almost thirty years old. Nowadays, it was rare for those who were not married at the age of thirty. This was a very bad choice. Although several concubines had grandchildren for him, there were only four granddaughters on the side of the legitimate family, so he was counting on Yan Zihui to have a grandson for him. If he could marry the Jiang family, it would be a good choice.
No one knows his son than his father. When Governor Yan saw Yan Zi's expression, he knew he was unhappy and smiled and said, "Brother, this idea is good, but Jade girl, I remember that she is eleven years younger than Xuanling, which is not suitable."
"Brother, you know that Jie'er is my old girl, and I'm the pearl in my hand. I don't feel at ease to marry anyone. Xuanling's nephew grew up. But I don't feel at mercy on her. Our two families are originally a family-friendly family and need to support each other in the future. If Jie'er can marry Xuanling, it's the best thing." Jiang Xuwu always wanted to marry the Yan family, but his daughter was too young and was too far from Yan Zihui's age. He thought this would not be done. Who knew that Yan Zihui was delayed until he was twenty-six or seven years old and his daughter had grown up. This opportunity came.
"Uncle Jiang, I will not agree to this marriage. I already have a woman to marry." Yan Zi replied, got up and left, with a very firm attitude.
Jiang Xuwu put his hopes on Governor Yan, "Brother, this marriage is still subject to the parents."
Governor Yan sighed and said, "Brother, I can't help but mom!" He agreed, and Yan Zihui disagreed. Will he ask Yan Zi to tie him back to the church to get married? Even if the church can be tied up, can the wedding room be tied up?
Yi Huan didn't know someone was beating Yan Zihui. She was invited to visit the Yakeli family's ranch and was playing the sheep girl grazing sheep. "Pleasant goat, beautiful goat, sheep, lazi, sheep, boiling goat, slow goat, sheep, soft red, wolf, gray wolf, don't look at me just a sheep, green grass, because I become more fragrant, the sky is bluer, and the white clouds are... "
"Auntie, what are you singing?" Yi Haoran asked with a smile.
"Sing." Yi Huan jumped and swung the lamb whip, "Don't look at me just a sheep, the sheep's intelligence is unimaginable. No matter how high the sky is, I feel as unrestrained as I am, I chase the sun every day..."
At noon, the generous Akeli caught a sheep and everyone roasted the whole sheep to eat. Jack licked his lips and said, "William is really unlucky."
"He wants to rush back to attend his cousin's wedding, so he can only leave early." Yakeli brushed honey on the mutton.
Yi Huan asked, "Is Emma going to get married?"
"No, it's his other cousin." Akli replied.
When Yi Huan heard that it was someone else, he didn't ask any more questions.
