Chapter 212 From Now On, I Have the Final Say
Chu Ci walked back to the desk and wrote down everything. He wanted to coordinate all these things and also divide them into food, clothing, housing and transportation.
The first thing to solve is the problem of food.
Chu Ci was still thinking about these four words over and over in his mind when Lin Feng brought the manager here in.
When several officials in charge saw Chu Ci, there were only two words in their minds: nonsense.
This is simply nonsense. Such an important matter is handed over to a little girl. Isn't this obviously asking them to die?
Several officials stood there in silence. Chu Ci didn't waste any time and directly took Cang Mo's bracelet and personal token from his arms and threw them onto the desk. "From now on, I have the final say here."
"If you are dissatisfied, go to the roadside and join that gentleman. My surname is Chu, and I am the Princess of Chaoyang County, personally appointed by the Emperor."
"No one knows how long this heavy snow will last. Now all we can do is hold on until this period of time passes."
"Now listen to my orders. Whoever is in charge of the food here, hand over all the food and mix it with the food I brought. Cai He will be in charge. No matter who wants to take the food, they must get my order. Otherwise, they will be beaten to death as rioters."
The eyes of these adults deepened a little as they looked at each other. They were not convinced, but when they thought about Chu Ci having the bracelet and token of King Rui, and even giving the personal guards to the Princess of Chaoyang County, they could only do this for now.
"Lin Feng, take the people who are in charge of the place and go find Yunsheng. All the men who are able-bodied and can move should go outside to set up tents. You should also spare some manpower to build sheds and earthen stoves outside the tents to solve the problem of food."
"We put a few small stoves in each tent and keep boiling water. This not only raises the temperature, but also allows you to drink some hot water to warm yourself up."
Thinking of this, Chu Ci realized that there were too few people. All the people she could send out had gone out, and there was not even one person left.
There is one more thing, that is cotton clothes.
When Chu Ci thought of this, she put on her cloak and wanted to go out and see how many clothes the common people had and how much they needed. Her requirements were very low, which was to save her life.
When Chu Ci walked out of the small room, he saw ladies, children, and old people sitting everywhere, all huddled together. What on earth had those officials been doing for so long?
Chu Ci had just been strolling around for a short while when Lin Feng came over. "Princess, all the instructions have been given. The palace guards are keeping an eye on it, and a large tent has already been set up."
Chu Ci looked at the children and the elderly on the ground, raised his head, and said with the aura of a king, "Now everyone, listen to me. Children, pregnant women, and the elderly, go to the newly set up tents first. Remember, if you are not one of these three types of people, you are not allowed to enter. Otherwise, you will be beaten to death with clubs. If you don't believe me, you can try it yourself."
Chu Ci spoke seriously, and then the officials came out, surrounded the tent, and began to check everyone. As for the pregnant women, three unknown doctors came in to take their pulses and examine them.
Once these people were arranged, no one among the common people objected. Instead, they were very supportive. After all, who doesn't have elderly people, children, and pregnant women in their family?
Chu Ci instructed Lin Feng, "Let the pregnant woman be responsible for boiling the hot water. Leave some for the child to warm up. Send the rest out and give everyone a bowl. Let them drink some hot water to warm themselves up first."
When the people saw that there was really someone willing to take care of them and that there was hot water to drink, their restless hearts finally calmed down.
Chu Ci looked at the remaining women and thought for a moment. "I know everyone has poultry at home, chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cows, and sheep. They should all have frozen to death by now. If anyone has any at home, please report it and we'll find them. If we're sure they're still edible, we'll register them. When the snowstorm is over, we'll return them to you alive, but they won't necessarily be the same size as before."
The ladies were all good at managing the household. When they heard that the dead livestock could be exchanged for live ones and given to them to eat, they were very active and bravely signed up.
Chu Ci glanced at Lin Feng and said, "Go ahead. Remember, let them go home to get it. Let the police follow them. If anyone makes trouble, they will be considered rioters and will be killed immediately. If they can't explain it clearly, both sides will be killed."
Chu Ci's words made those who wanted to have any evil intentions give up their thoughts. If they were discovered, they would be beaten to death. This girl looked ordinary, so how could she be so cruel?
There were still some ladies left on the ground. They were all older, but not that old. Chu Ci had found some work for them. "Ladies, this is not an ordinary time. If you want to get through this period, you definitely can't do it without thick clothes."
The ladies looked at each other, and finally all of them set their sights on the thin jackets on themselves. Could it be that the Chaoyang County Lady wanted them to give up their thin jackets?
Seeing that they had misunderstood, Chu Ci did not say anything, but just waited for them to deepen their misunderstanding. Only then could she tell them the truth and increase their sense of happiness.
In the blink of an eye, all the ladies fell silent.
Chu Ci finally spoke, "Now that the environment has become like this, I think it's quite cold for people working outside. I have some materials, but not much. I want you to gather them all and make them into coats for them to wear, and also give the children some thick quilts."
When the ladies heard that they were not asked to take off their coats, they all nodded and agreed that this was okay.
Chu Ci asked someone to clear out a tent for them and make some thick robes and other things for those who went out to work. After all, if they got sick from the cold, they would need medicinal materials, and at this time, medicinal materials were in short supply.
Everything was almost arranged, and the remaining minor matters were handled by Lin Feng and the others. Chu Ci thought about finding something to do within his ability.
All the ladies dispersed and went to work.
Chu Ci continued to stroll around.
She walked to the bottom of the cooking shed. Everything was clearly ready, but they didn't understand and seemed worried. Could it be that they didn't know how much food to cook?
A cool breeze blew by. Chu Ci pulled up his cloak and walked under the shed. "What are you doing? Why aren't you firing?"
Cai He pointed at the cabbage, white sweet potatoes and sweet potatoes on the ground and said, "Master, they have never eaten this dish of yours and don't know how to cook it."
Chu Ci smiled and said, "That's right. These are vegetables bought from other countries. They have never been eaten locally. This is something she occasionally knew about in her previous life. What's even more shocking is that not only is the output large, but the food is also delicious. Most importantly, it's cheap."
Chu Ci looked at the pile of frozen pigs and said, "Every one of them looks edible. Why don't you take a pig and process it first? This thing will taste better if you put some meat on it."
As soon as Chu Ci told them how to eat it, they felt like they had opened up a new world. It didn’t take long before they figured out other ways to eat it.
