Reborn in the 70s, doing whatever it takes to make money

"Ah ~ it's the captain, why are you here?"

Xu's mother showed surprise when she looked at the captain coming in the rain and the group of people behind him.

"Is Teacher Xu Qing asleep?"

asked the captain.

"Sleep, sleep, I'll wake her up right away..."

When Xu's mother heard that the captain was here to see Xu Qing, she knew there was something important and said quickly.

Before Xu's mother could shout, Xu Qing had already walked out of the room.

She had actually guessed that the captain would come to find her.

So I didn't take off my clothes to sleep after entering the house.

really.

Her guess was right.

The captain came to find her in the rain.

"Captain, come in and talk."

Xu Qing staggered her body and got out of the way.

After the captain and his entourage entered the house, Xu's mother winked at the third sister-in-law, and the third sister-in-law immediately brought hot water.

"Captain, come on, come on, drink a bowl of hot water to go away the cold, but don't catch a cold."

Xu's mother brought a bowl of hot water to everyone.

The captain took the hot water, took a sip, then looked at Xu Qing and went straight to the topic, "Teacher Xu Qing, I am here to say thank you on behalf of everyone. Without your persistence, our losses after this heavy rain would have been It’s going to be bigger.”

Xu Qing waved her hands repeatedly and said: "Captain Miao likes it..."

The captain interrupted Xu Qing's self-effacement and said, "Teacher Xu Qing, you don't have to be self-effacing. Your achievements are obvious to all."

"Captain, drink water, drink water."

Mother Xu interjected with a smile.

The captain picked up the bowl, took a sip, and continued: "I came to you all night long, firstly, to thank you in person, and secondly, to hear your opinion."

"What's your opinion?"

Xu Qing asked.

"When do you think this heavy rain will stop?" Xu Qing accurately predicted the rain time this time. The captain had an inexplicable trust in Xu Qing, so he wanted to hear Xu Qing's opinion, and then This initiates subsequent actions.

Others in the room looked surprised. They did not expect that the captain would ask Xu Qing such a question.

Predicting the arrival of rain is understandable, but predicting when the rain will end is probably beyond human ability. At least in their opinion, Xu Qing definitely does not have this ability.

The fact is just as they thought, Xu Qing does not have this ability, but she knows the future development.

She knew that the rainstorm lasted for three days and three nights.

I know that the wheat in the field has sprouted after being soaked in water, and the harvest is almost gone.

We also know that the people of Hongqi Village, and even the entire county, will suffer far more disasters this year.

Under the gaze of everyone, Xu Qing pretended to think deeply for a moment, and then expressed her opinion, "I'm afraid this rain won't stop for a while. I'm afraid the captain and everyone here must be prepared for this heavy rain." Two or three days of mental preparation.”

As soon as this statement came out, some believed it and some did not.

The captain subconsciously sat up straight and said, "Two or three days?"

Xu Qing said: "I just guessed that the captain should not be too nervous, and the matter has reached this point, and we are unable to change it. Instead of worrying too much, it is better to focus on the things we can do."

"Doing what we can?"

asked the captain.

Xu Qing nodded and said: "Yes, this rainstorm is fierce and accompanied by strong winds. It will not stop in a short time. Some houses in our Hongqi Village have not been repaired for many years, so they are fine when encountering light winds and light rains..."

Before he finished speaking, the captain said hurriedly: "Are you worried that some houses will collapse in this heavy rain?"

Xu Qing said: "Not bad."

The captain fell into deep thought. After a while, he exhaled a breath and said, "What you said is not unreasonable. When I get back, I will use the radio to inform everyone to stay away from dangerous buildings."

After saying that, the captain stood up and left.

……

Silent all night.

The next day, early morning.

It's still raining outside.

There is no sign of stopping.

Everyone in Hongqi Village had a gloomy look on their faces.

"Captain Zhou, have you gone to the fields?"

The brigade secretary looked at the brigade leader walking towards him in a raincoat and asked quickly.

The captain walked into the brigade office, took off his raincoat, picked up a towel and wiped his face, and then said slowly: "Yes."

"How's it going? Is the wheat in the field okay?"

The brigade secretary said anxiously.

The captain sighed and said: "The wheat in the field has been blown down by the strong wind. If this heavy rain really lasts for two or three days, it will be a disaster for us."

The brigade secretary said: "Thanks to Teacher Xu Qing this time."

The captain nodded in agreement, "Who says it's not the case?"

The rain outside the house is still falling continuously.

noon.

Someone suddenly rushed into the office and said, "Captain, secretary, it's bad, Li Zizi's house collapsed."

The captain and secretary were both shocked.

The captain asked quickly: "Is everyone okay?"

The visitor panted and said: "Li Zizi was pinned down, but fortunately our rescue was in time. Li Zizi was slightly injured and his life is not in danger."

The captain breathed a sigh of relief, then said angrily: "What did Li Laizi do? Didn't I warn you repeatedly last night to be on guard against house collapse and not to stay in dangerous buildings? By the way, are there any other houses that have collapsed?"

"Yes, a total of three houses collapsed due to the heavy rain, but the people in the other two moved to other strong houses last night and escaped the disaster."

"Okay, these two are doing very well. This time it's thanks to Teacher Xu Qing. If it weren't for her reminder, I wouldn't have thought of this."

"Teacher Xu Qing is really extraordinary."

"Who says it isn't? Teacher Xu Qing is very knowledgeable despite her young age. She can tell whether it is raining from some details, and she is very considerate."

"I really want to transfer her to the brigade and entrust her with important tasks."

"There are currently no vacancies in the brigade, and the school can't survive without Teacher Xu Qing."

"Yeah, the kid is very naughty and won't even listen to what you and I say. Only Teacher Xu Qing can control those gangsters."

"..."

……

The heavy rain continued for three days.

When the rain stopped, everyone in Hongqi Village had a feeling that the punishment was over.

Next.

Under the organization of the captain, everyone began to ignore the mud in the field, entered the field and began to harvest wheat ears.

Several days passed.

Finally the loss came down.

More than [-]% of the wheat left in the field was lost, leaving less than [-]%. After drying, the remaining less than [-]% turned gray in color and had a lingering musty smell.

"Captain Zhou, not only our Hongqi Village was severely affected by the disaster this time, but the entire county and even the city are not optimistic. I asked around and found that the Daxing Production Brigade next door did not start harvesting before the heavy rain came. Now the losses are much more serious than ours, and It is said that there were also deaths. A family of five were sleeping when the house suddenly collapsed. When others found out the next day, the five members of the family had been dead for a long time."

At the end of the sentence, the brigade secretary couldn't help but sigh.

Natural disasters are merciless.
