Liu Shi galloped back to the clinic in the darkness of the night. The sky became completely dark. From the north bank to the west of the city, it was pitch black, with only the sound of horses trampling on the puddle, and only the sound of the river surging.

On the way, I met several people who were robbing the family and robbing the house. Liu Shi secretly rode his horse out and passed through the people who were robbing the house without looking back.

When we were about to reach the west of the city, heavy rain poured down again, and then wet Liu Shihan and the horses.

Today, the horse not only ate some roadside weeds and drank some dirty river water, but did not eat much all day. In addition, it transported a lot of things today. Then in the heavy rain, it was exhausted and began to slow down. No matter how Liu Shinan drove it away, it was useless.

Finally, Liu Shi secretly turned into a chicken that fell into a chicken, and the horse became a chicken that fell into a chicken. Each person and the horse were wet, and returned to the clinic in a mess.

When we arrived at the clinic, the sound of rain was already so loud that it was hard to move forward. Liu Shi secretly tied the horses, but he found that the horse food was short.

Liu Shi shouted inwardly: "Xiao Du, is there nothing to eat?"

Xiao Du pounded medicine in the store and said, "Young master, the food is hot for you, and I'll eat fried rice today."

“It’s about the food of horses, not the part I eat.”

"Young Master Liu, it has been raining these days, and the beans in the Maliang Shop have been closed for several days. When the wind and rain come, I don't know where to find herbs, so I can only be hungry first."

Liu Shi secretly looked at the horse in front of him who was drinking water with big mouthfuls of water. He couldn't bear it and patted the horse's head, and then he was powerless.

"Not to mention horses, maybe people won't have to eat in a few days. The rain is too heavy. If the river collapses one or two more places, there will be riots in the entire county."

Liu Shi secretly left the horse circumference, arrived at the backyard, and returned to the store. Seeing Zhou Xiaodu pounding medicine, he also said, "Xiaodu, what's wrong with the county today?"

Xiao Du thought for a while and said, "Young Master, in the evening, the government issued a notice and sent it from house to house. You can take a look at it on the counter."

Liu Shi secretly held his fried rice, and while eating it, he walked to the counter, opened the prescription paper, and looked for the government notice.

Zhou Xiaodu packed all the pounded medicine into a ball, and then saw Liu Shi secretly flipping the prescription, he hurried over and said, "Young Master Liu, if you mess up the prescription, you will come and hit me again when your master comes back."

"I'll look for a notice."

Zhou Xiaodu looked through the prescription, then found a notice and handed it to Liu Shian, saying, "The notice is here, Mr. Liu can't eat at the counter. There are too many medicines here, which will affect appetite, and the master will scold me when he sees it."

Liu Shi secretly held the notice and the rice bowl, sat in a corner, and said, "Where has your master been?"

"My master went to the hospital. Someone in the north of the city was washed away by the flood, and then his eyes were stabbed by wooden stakes, so he asked his master to treat it."

Liu Shi said intimately: "I also went to the North Bank today, but I didn't see your master, and I thought I had missed it."

Zhou Xiaodu: "Young Master Liu, have you gained anything?"

Liu Shinan swallowed more rice at once and said, "The harvest is that if the autumn rain has not stopped, more people will die, not because they are washed away by the river, but because they cannot find the meaning of survival."

Zhou Xiaodu pointed to the notice and said, "The notice says, "It says, looking for people who can draw and understand water conservancy projects, can contribute to the treatment of floods, and reward one thousand taels. The rest have other ideas for water control policies. If adopted, they will also be rewarded by the government."

Liu Shi nodded secretly and looked at the notice with interesting interest. In addition to the person looking for water control, another key point is that many wealthy families in the county must report the number of houses owned by their own households, as well as the number of households and populations.

Liu Shi said to himself: "Little Du, it seems that the county magistrate has used our method. Your young master has not left in vain this trip."

Zhou Xiaodu said: "Young Master, I didn't see what you said in the notice, whether it was diversion or letting wealthy families take in homeless people."

Liu Shi secretly explained: "Sometimes the government is very direct in doing things, and sometimes it also uses some tricks. You can't see it when you are a person who is not smart like you, but if you have some intelligence, you will think of it all at once."

Zhou Xiaodu curled his lips and said, "Young Master, do you think I'm stupid?"

"Not, but I think there are too few people like you."

"Then the young master told me what was going on?"

Liu Shi nodded secretly and told Zhou Xiaodu the information on the notice that he wanted to check the number of households and populations of the large households.

The county has confirmed that the number of houses owned by large households is also verified, and the number of people is actually checking the idle situation of houses owned by large households.

If the government leaves the orders, these wealthy families will not dare to lie without authorization. Moreover, if they report less, the government will pursue the matter in the future and say that it has not been checked before. If the government receives the name, it will only be silly to eat Coptis chinensis.

So as soon as this order was issued, within a few days, the government would have grasped the idle houses of the rich families in the county. Then the order was issued, saying that it would borrow these idle houses and resettle those homeless people. At that time, these rich families would not dare to complain.

Zhou Xiaodu listened to Liu Shinan's explanation and suddenly realized, saying, "Young Master, this method is not a long-term solution. It is said to be temporary resettlement. There will be many problems in the future. Water control is still the most important thing in front of you."

Liu Shi nodded secretly and said, "This year's autumn rain is really a bit scary. I went to see the situation on the north bank today. The river water had to wash away the houses downstream of the north bank. Many girls collapsed, many families were destroyed, and many people lost their closest relatives."

"Young Master, what should I do?" Zhou Xiaodu was worried.

Liu Shi secretly comforted: "Xiao Du, you don't have to worry. The government has taken measures today. As the saying goes, there must be brave men under heavy rewards. People in the government cannot think of practical solutions. However, under the temptation of money, someone will think of feasible solutions. I ask and wait."

Liu Shi secretly knew that the government, or the county magistrate, would do his best to cure today's flood, capture the love of the people in the county, and to protect his official position, instead of waiting for death.

This county magistrate is not the kind of person waiting for slaughter. Although his original intention was not for the people, his actions could only be carried out around the people in the county. Such a result is also a good result.

But how can we deal with this Yunhe flood?
