Chapter 736 Disaster is not a one-way street

In three days, the earthquake in Tokyo City was basically passed, and Zhao Zhen and the family in the palace all lived in the back garden in the three days, the earthquake was judged by many factors such as the damage and time, Zhao Zhen estimated that it should be about five or six magnitudes, otherwise it would not cause such a big damage, and it was likely to be a shallow earthquake.

The Great Song Dynasty Si Tianjian has begun to report all kinds of data they have summarized to Zhao Zhen, this is their responsibility, astronomical mathematics and earthquakes are under the management of Si Tianjian in this era, Si Tianjian is the earliest reform of the imperial court yamen after Zhao Zhen succeeded to the throne, and it is also the yamen that brings together the most talents in the Great Song Dynasty.

Their attitude towards earthquakes can be positive, and they have collected all the earthquake data, earthquakes do not occur very often, and this valuable information is invaluable to the officials of Si Tianjian.

Three days basically to the people of Tokyo to relax, the rescue of the people have also been rescued, wooden houses are far easier than reinforced concrete rescue, wooden houses are actually more suitable for living, although cement has been popularized, cement buildings have begun to appear, but mostly as a commercial use, and few people use cement to build houses, at most it is just to use bricks and stones to pile up the foundation outside with cement, and the upper part of the house is still a wooden mechanism.

The resilient wooden beams and columns absorbed the vibrations to a large extent when the earthquake struck, and even the deformation and fracture released the force of the squeezing, allowing the people to escape from death under the houses, but even so, there were still 1,203 dead and injured in the city, most of them died in the stampede and crowding of the city.

But Zhao Zhen is also glad that the earthquake occurred during the day, if it is midnight, the consequences will be unimaginable! The Great Song Dynasty can afford the economic loss, money is something outside the body, and the Great Song Dynasty has accumulated not only money over the years, but also powerful technology and important business routes.

These are the capital of the rise of Tokyo again, an earthquake can destroy only the products that have been produced, raw materials, and factories, but it can not destroy people's enthusiasm and hope, Zhao Zhen took out his own treasury money as a special fund to put into the imperial court's ticket number, as long as the affected shops can be used to renovate the shops or rebuild the factory.

The most important point is that there is no interest on this money, not a penny of interest, how much to borrow, how much to repay, and even the ticket number does not charge a fee, and the apprentice of the ticket number let out the words: "This is the money that the official family can't bear to suffer and deliberately take out the money from the inner treasury, how many emperors in ancient and modern times can do this?" To put it mildly, this is the official's own money! ”

This is rare, the merchant took the money, cried while walking, and everyone who saw it had to ask, so the news spread in the city of Tokyo like wings, and anyone with a discerning eye could see the disaster relief situation in Tokyo City, which was already very good, who would have thought that the official family would not only help the disaster relief, but also help the affected people to stand up again!

In fact, Zhao Zhen's motive is very simple, only when the shops and factories are restored, the people of Tokyo can be restored, they have factories to continue to work, there is work to continue to work, they will be at ease, and the order of Tokyo City can be restored soon, in fact, this is Zhao Zhen's appropriation for work relief, damaged, shops, streets need people to repair and build, these have to invest money and manpower, and Zhao Zhen lent them money, on the one hand, to help them tide over the difficulties, on the other hand, they can be recovered, although there is no interest, but this is already very good.

The businessmen not only got a loan from the ticket number of the imperial court, but also thanked the palace in tears, Zhao Zhen just lent them profitlessly, how can there be such a good thing in the world?

Zhao Zhen's simple means can achieve such an effect, which amazed the courtiers of Xu Du, and people with a little bit of brains also know the trick, but they will never say it, even if the businessmen who were affected by the disaster understand, but at this time, the official family took out the inner treasury as life-saving money It is already extremely generous.

I don't know when a piece of news came out of the palace, and I don't know if it was the mouthy chamberlain or the palace maid who said it, the pentagonal mansion of the ministers in the palace did not suffer much loss, but the forbidden Zhonguchi was not spared, the palace collapsed, the ground was raised, the house collapsed, and the devastation was devastated, and the emperor and the empress lived in the back garden with the imperial heir!

When the news came out, the officials sighed, the people wept bitterly, and even the envoys of the Liao Dynasty were moved, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty was really the king of a country, and put the country, the people, and the people in the first place, and put themselves in the latter.

The officials admonished Zhao Zhen at the court meeting that the palace should be repaired at the appropriate time, but Zhao Zhen refused with righteous words: "Although the earthquake in Beijing has subsided, the people still have no fixed residence, and the prosperity of the market has not yet been restored, how can I wantonly repair the palace and ban it?" The worries of the world first, and the joy of the world after the world, this is what I want! ”

The courtiers were shocked, and they were worried about the worries of the world first, and happy about the joy of the world after the world! It is not strange for a generation of famous ministers to say such things, but it is shocking to say it from the mouth of a king, and this is the standard that scholars should follow!

Especially Fan Zhongyan, the first to open his mouth and praised: "The words of the official family are like Daigo empowerment, and my generation should be regarded as a classic!" ”

Zhao Zhen's old face turned red, this is what Fan Wenzheng said himself, and after a little embarrassment, he said: "Since Fan Yuanzheng likes it, then I will give you a plaque in handwriting, I hope you will remember it!" ”

As soon as this statement came out, the emperor's handwriting was not easy to obtain, not to mention the words that seemed to be of such significance, even if they were put into the home for daily offerings, they should be worshipped, and the words of exhortation could be described as worth ten thousand gold! looked at Fan Zhongyan with envy and jealousy, how much luck did this person get!

There was a noise outside the hall of Daqing Palace, Zhao Zhen and the ministers looked at it, only to see a person covered in dust was erected in, and after seeing Zhao Zhen in a court dress, he suddenly rushed to the royal street, and said with a crying voice: "Your Majesty!" The state capitals around Gyeonggi are moving one after another! There are countless casualties, and the victims are everywhere! ”

Crash...... The courtiers exploded, at first they thought that only Kaifeng Mansion moved, but they didn't expect the surrounding state capitals to be affected, but this doesn't make sense, it seems that the time is a little wrong, three days after Kaifeng moved, the neighboring state capitals only moved!

The smile on Zhao Zhen's face froze, and he suddenly stood up and walked down the royal street to the knight: "Where are those places affected, what are the casualties?" Hurry up! ”

The knight touched the tears on his face and looked up and replied: "Jiashen, there was a ground movement in Xinzhou, Daizhou, and Bingzhou, and the houses collapsed, and the local officials reported that the number of people who crushed the two was 12,389. Among them, 19,742 people died in Xinzhou, 5,655 people were injured, and more than 50,000 livestock were disturbed; Seven hundred and fifty-nine died in Daizhou; And 1,890 people died! ”
