The official responsible for the land purchase of the He family, the Liu family, and the Huang family said sadly: "Because the terrain was too low, the He family, the Huang family, and the Liu family were unable to escape in time. When the flood broke out, they all drowned in the water." No one will be spared." Therefore, there is no such thing as buying a land deed.

Zhang Yanjin nodded. After all, natural disasters and man-made disasters cannot be decided by them. No matter how good the gentry and gentry are, it still depends on God.

After he asked the responsible officials to count the land deed files, Zhang Yanjin was about to leave for Xizhou and Yulin. First, he took advantage of his position to see how Zhang Wuyi and Wang Shi and Wang Jiu were doing. Second, It was to mobilize the people of Zhongzhou who moved out at that time to return to Zhongzhou.

As for the local Zhongzhou people, he has already started to arrange for them to build simple wooden houses on the flat ground, so that they can shelter from the wind and rain first.

After all, once the people who temporarily moved out came back, they must first have a place to live, so that they could talk about the next step of reconstruction.

It took five or six days before Zhang Yanjin brought Zhang Wuer and others to Datong, Xizhou.

At this time, Datong has changed a lot under Zhang Yanjin's arrangement and development. Even Zhang Yanjin is a little surprised by the appearance of Xizhou Datong now, not to mention the officials who followed Zhang Yanjin all the way here and came to Datong for the first time. .

The difference from before Zhang Yanjin left last time is that the road in Datong has been widened to four meters wide, which is convenient for eight tall horses to walk side by side, which greatly facilitates the business travelers coming and going.

The business traveler not only has people from all over the Wei Dynasty, but also the blond-haired and blue-eyed foreigners, and the Dongying people who speak Japanese.

The roads crisscross, tall red brick buildings stand on both sides, and the melodious sound of labor chants flutters in the air, revealing a sense of order among the bustle.

Looking at all this, Zhang Yanjin felt a sense of pride and accomplishment spontaneously, all of this was done by him!Xizhou Datong is also famous in history because of Zhang Yanjin, and became the first area to rise in the Great Wei Dynasty!

He has made Datong, and Datong has made him.

Although he has rarely been in Datong since last year, he has very close correspondence with Wang Shi, Wang Jiu, and Meng Jinglun of the Ming Dynasty in Datong.

The first arrangement he made before leaving was to let Wang Shi, Wang Jiu and the others widen the road, because the narrow trail at that time could no longer meet the needs of business travelers, and it also greatly affected the efficiency of business.To get rich, it is not unreasonable to build roads first.

Therefore, he discussed with Meng Jinglun and broadened the road to Datong. To facilitate the current situation, he even asked many ordinary people to move out of the way, redesigning and planning the road that is most suitable for the current Datong economy.

Of course, since the first row of red brick houses in Zhang Yanjin Coal Factory in Datong was built, these ordinary people became jealous one after another. In addition, they worked in Zhang Yanjin's factory and accumulated a lot of money. Started to buy red bricks, looking for Zhang Yanjin's artisans to build houses for them.

After a year, the common people in Datong finally replaced their houses with red bricks and abandoned the old mud tile houses.Some of the richer ones also imitated Zhang Yanjin's Cuipingshan villa, and painted white ash on the outside of their walls to make the house look more beautiful and foreign.

Even some savvy and bold common people saw the business opportunities in the business travellers, and went to buy land from Meng Jinglun to prepare for business.

For this reason, Meng Jinglun also wrote a letter to ask Zhang Yanjin, wanting to see what is the most suitable arrangement.

After seeing Zhang Yanjin's letter writing that for long-term development, he designed a market dedicated to trading like Chang'an, Meng Jinglun specially asked someone to open up a piece of land, transform it into a simple market, and divide it into different shops. Whoever wants to do business can rent the stalls inside.

It is precisely because of this that Xizhou Datong reveals an orderly feeling amidst the hustle and bustle.

Not long after Zhang Yanjin and his party arrived in Xizhou, they were received by Meng Jinglun.

The two haven't seen each other for more than a year, and they are very emotional when they meet again.Zhang Yanjin was moved by the changes in Datong. Although he knew about the development of Datong in the past year or so, it still brought him a huge visual impact when he saw the changes in Datong with his own eyes. Luoyang, which was in ruins, came over.

The reason why Meng Jinglun was emotional was because of Zhang Yanjin's own changes.If one year ago, Zhang Yanjin was still a young man with a slightly immature appearance, now standing in front of me, he is a mature and stable young man who has lost his childishness.

Furthermore, he had heard about Zhang Yanjin's deeds over the past year.Building a giant ship, rescuing people in disasters, and going to Nanyang, which one of these is not enough to make a person's name go down in history, and the deeds of future generations, but the young man in front of him has completed these three things in just over a year, which is very peaceful. Like him, he felt ashamed when facing Zhang Yanjin who was ten years younger than him.

It really is God who loves Da Wei, so such a genius was born in Da Wei!

He believed that no matter where Zhang Yanjin was or what dynasty he was born in, with his maturity, determination and intelligence beyond his age, he would be able to stand out.

Now the young man who has been tempered will complete the reconstruction of Zhongzhou in less than a year.

However, he believed that Zhang Yanjin would be able to complete it perfectly and rebuild Zhongzhou into a more prosperous place than the current Datong.

After exchanging pleasantries with Meng Jinglun, Zhang Yanjin followed Wang Shi and Wang Jiu who came to welcome him to the open-pit coal mine and the cement factory.

Under the arrangement of the two brothers Wang Shi and Wang Jiu, the victims stood in the open space, waiting for Zhang Yanjin to come.

But what Zhang Yanjin didn't expect was that after seeing him coming, these disaster victims actually knelt down one after another and said loudly, "Thank you for saving my life, my lord!"

These ordinary people don't know what to say, but they can hear the abundant emotions contained in the words they shouted.

At the beginning, they were trapped on the high ground, surrounded by vast torrents of water. They lost their relatives, houses, homes, and hometowns. No matter who they were, they were desperate.

Just when they thought they would linger on and live the rest of their lives, this man named Zhang Yanjin arranged for someone to take them back to solid land by boat, and gave them each a job to do.

Here, they can not only fill their stomachs, but also eat meat every day, how can they not be grateful?

Although Zhang Yanjin is also a lord, Zhongzhou Mu's position is higher than his title, so these people call him a lord.

Row after row of people knelt down in unison, and the darkness was overwhelming. Zhang Yanjin had never been kowtowed before, and it was the first time that he was knelt down by someone with such a big posture, which made his body stiff without any mental preparation. After being stunned for a moment, he hurried forward to help the person in the middle and said, "Please get up quickly, please get up quickly!"

At the same time, he also signaled the people around him to hurry up and help these people up.

Finally, after a long while of tugging, the victims who moved from Zhongzhou got up one after another, and stood neatly looking at Zhang Yanjin.

Zhang Yanjin also looked at these victims solemnly and said: "Remember, you should thank yourself, not me! It was you who escaped from the flood yourself, and it was you who worked with your hands to support them. Myself, and I just provided you with a place to work!"

The victims who moved from Zhongzhou were stunned when they heard the words, and no one spoke for a while.

"You are the bravest people. You are the ones who dare to fight against natural disasters. You are the ones who will not give up their lives in the face of great panic. You deserve to be respected by everyone." Zhang Yanjin is sonorous and powerful, every word is like a drumstick The beating is like a drum, and it thumps in the hearts of every disaster victim.

The eye sockets of the victims gradually turned red, and tears blurred their eyes.It can be said that Zhang Yanjin's words are the most touching words they have heard after the disaster.

After the disaster, they are surrounded by a sense of homelessness panic, even here, they work every day to earn food, still feel like a stranger in a foreign land, even if no one bullies them here, give them back wages, but they are still not discouraged.

But now Zhang Yanjin told them that they are the most respectable and brave people, how could they not be moved?

Even the workers around were attracted by Zhang Yanjin's words, quietly put down the tools in their hands, and listened to Zhang Yanjin's speech.

"Although your homeland has been destroyed, there are still a group of brave people like you on the land of Zhongzhou. As long as you are here, how difficult is it to rebuild your homeland? Haven't we all experienced the biggest disaster?"

Looking around at the tearful victims, Zhang Yanjin said in a heavy voice, "It's just that our homes are gone. What are we afraid of?"

He walked down from the high platform and came to the victims and said, "Now there is an opportunity for you to go back and rebuild your homeland. Would you like to go back with me?"

He paused for a moment before changing the subject, and said calmly: "However, if some of you don't want to go back, I won't make things difficult for them. You can stay here, and the treatment will be the same as before, there will be no difference."

"Rebuild your home! Rebuild your home!" I don't know who shouted, and all the victims raised their fists and shouted.

This sound is deafening, floating in the sky, rippling between mountains and rivers, and lingering for a long time.
