Chapter 24 You Will Have It
He strolled to the conference room and found that it was still brightly lit.
Lin Wen peeked through the crack in the door and saw Zhao Minggong sitting below. There were still many people surrounding him, as well as a large number of county officials, soldiers, and the security guards who had no significance last night.
They seemed to have worked overnight until now, and the meeting room seemed to have become an office.
Just as Lin Wen was peeping, Kindness jumped out again, and a cheer could be heard in the venue. “That’s great, Mr. Zhao. This way, I won’t have to worry about food in Donghe Town. You’re truly a genius. The county governor really has a discerning eye for talents!”
Lin Wen was heartened. Yesterday he indeed made the right choice. Although it was less rewarding than him personally dealing with it, if he were to do it himself, who knew how much Kindness he would have to spend to solve the problems? It would not be as profitable as it is now.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
“Eh, where’s my other representative?”
Only one of them was racking his brains, but the other was nowhere to be seen.
This wouldn’t do. What if this man was too tired and died? Wouldn’t he lose an arm?
After asking the staff, Lin Wen found out that his other representative said that girls should not stay up too late and go back to rest after a few hours.
This was acceptable?
What happened to her eclipsing the sun and moon?
Lin Wen immediately ordered his men to bring her over. At the same time, he asked the head of the Human Resources Department to make sure that the files, positions, authority, and treatment of the new deputy county head and his assistant had changed accordingly.
Initially, he had planned to stay and give her an unforgettable mental transformation. However, when he saw that the Heart of Seven Orifices only had a few minutes left, he dismissed the idea. After all, there would be plenty of time in the future.
After these chores were done, Lin Wen immediately turned around to get down to business.
He wanted to fully examine the location and plan for rebuilding after the disaster.
This was the most important thing to him right now. It was related to his Kindness.
Recently, Lin Wen had deeply understood an important principle: If he knew more, the difficulty of the problem would decrease proportionally, and the consumption of Immortal Guiding the Way would be greatly reduced.
The way this spell worked seemed to be based on himself, obtaining the answer in some mysterious way. There was not really an immortal guiding him from behind.
Otherwise, Lin Wen would definitely find him in the future and beat him up.
Therefore, in order to execute the plan better in the future and obtain more Kindness, he had to understand more details now. Otherwise, he would not be able to endure the depletion of Immortal Guiding the Way.
It was also because of this that he had to preserve the power of his Soul Essence as much as possible. If he could avoid using any spells, he would not use any.
This was pure Kindness.
Lin Wen was a true man of action. Without informing anyone, he immediately got in the special car and went straight to the temporary settlement of the refugees near Changle Town and Niujiao Village.
Currently, the people in charge of the post-disaster work were the Civil Affairs Department. Director Huang Mingxiao was also one of the few officials who did not attend the meeting yesterday. Their office was located in Changle Town.
Changle Town was a little far from Huai Town, and the road was quite bumpy. However, the driver had driven here for twenty years, so he was already very familiar with this place. He brought Lin Wen to his destination within an hour.
Changle Town hadn’t been affected by the disaster and hadn’t changed much. Most of the people in the town recognized Lin Wen and greeted him warmly, asking him where he had been during this period of time. They still didn’t know that Lin Wen had already been promoted to governor.
Little Li ran out of the mayor’s office and cried when he saw Lin Wen.
“Wu Wu Wu, Town Mayor Lin, where did you go? You’ve been gone for so long. I thought you died on the levee, but they all said that you didn’t die and even became a hero of the Empire. Wu Wu Wu Wu, I thought they were lying to me. Which hero of the Empire didn’t die? You weren’t here for so many days, I missed you so much…”
As they talked and cried along the way, Lin Wen also learned about the recent situation in Changle Town. Overall, there was only one sentence: “A child that no one wants.”
The mayor had gone missing, and no one came to take over his job. There were no notification calls either. There was only one senior clerk in the town, Xiao Lin. Even the twelve staff members had been transferred away.
Changle Town was like an isolated island. After losing the mayor, its connection with the outside world had become weaker.
If not for the arrival of the Civil Affairs Department, Xiao Li would have thought that they had been abandoned by the world.
But the people of the Civil Affairs Department didn’t pay much attention to them either. They simply occupied a large compound at the western end of the town as a temporary command post for reconstruction after the disaster.
Most of the refugees were placed on the hills to the north. Only the injured and sick refugees were temporarily placed in Changle Town.
They were unwilling to live in a low place.
Victims of the flood were residing in Changpai Village and Niujiao Village on the hill, especially Changpai Village. The levees of the nearby Changpai Village had already been deified.
It was said that the immortals had descended into the mortal world to protect all living beings in order to stop the flood. The dike was the place where the immortals appeared. The person guarding the dike was the incarnation of the immortals. He descended on the night of the flood to save people.
As Lin Wen’s actions were extremely special and possessed the characteristics of a legend, all kinds of myths and stories were extremely popular among the refugees of the disaster.
In order to stabilize the hearts of the people, the officials did not clarify the truth. Instead, they secretly added fuel to the fire. Now, the dam of Changpai Village had already been used as a place of worship for the gods. It was a temple of miracles. Every day, countless people went up the dike to pray and make wishes.
As for the man guarding the dike, he became the incomparably benevolent and compassionate Perfected Immortal Light Breaker. He saved all those who were in trouble, and used his benevolent and compassionate heart to descend into the mortal world and protect all the common people.
A monument had been specially erected on the dike for him. It was a large limestone that Lin Wen had moved down from a nearby mountain in order to block the collapsed hole. However, the flood had suddenly stopped and it was of no use.
There were experts among the people who were skilled in carving that carved this green stone into a monument. On the left, there was “Unparalleled Benevolence”. On the right, there was “Great Compassion”. On the top of the head, there was “Salvation”. In the middle, there was the immortal’s name in the secular world: Light Breaker.
It had to be said that the sculptor’s technique was extremely brilliant. The blue stone itself was also very suitable in shape. The carved monument was natural, and its aura was restrained as if it was naturally formed.
Thus, there were rumors that this was originally a limestone used by immortals to nourish the heavens. It was placed on the dike to suppress water disasters and ensure eternal security.
With that, the matter regarding the immortal was confirmed. The green monument became the object of the deities, and there was an endless stream of incense offerings every day.
Although it was only a wall away from the surging river, many people would rather sleep under the dam and lie in the open space than live in Changle Town, which had a low terrain.
The flood that night was like a demon, it had hurt them too much.
They only felt at ease when they were by the side of the levee guarded by immortal treasures. Once they were out of the levee, they could only rest on the higher ground.
And above the dam, people slept every day, even if they faced the river directly, eating and sleeping in the open.
Many people said that it was peaceful sleeping on the dam, which was safe and blessed by the immortals. There were also those who fought because they couldn’t seize the space on the dam.
This brought many difficulties to the Civil Affairs Department’s work. They had to arrange for people to guard the dam in order to maintain order and prevent too many people from sleeping on the dam and facing danger.
Because of this, the temporary resettlement locations had been adjusted. In the end, they had no choice but to use Changpai Village’s dam as the main location and lay it horizontally on the hill between the dam of Changpai Village and Changle Town.
Transporting supplies had also become difficult, but the biggest problem now was not transportation, but shortages.
Since more than a week ago, the Empire had not sent any new supplies over, and the construction team had also left. Now, the temporary resettlement sites were facing the problem of lack of food, medicine, clean water, and disinfectant.
Although Xiao Li had been crying, he had explained everything clearly. His logic was clear.
So when Lin Wen walked to the door of the temporary headquarters of the Civil Affairs Department, he said.
“Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Li. You’ll be the mayor of Changle Town from today on.”
With that, he pushed open the door of the command post.
