Chapter 146 Disaster relief

Frederick’s gaze was immediately attracted by the poncho worn by the civil servant.

This light yellow hooded poncho looks really delicate. Not only is it cut very decently, the linen used is also very thick, and the surface seems to be brushed with a layer of oily and slippery things, and rain can’t get it at all.

This must be “jellyfish oil”!

Only “jellyfish oil” is light yellow!

The gentlemen of the government affairs office are really smart. Lord Lord got a lot of jellyfish oil some time ago, and they actually thought of using jellyfish oil to make ponchos.

I think this should also be one of the “work uniforms” issued to every civil servant by the Office of Government Affairs.

Frederick has heard some rumors. It is said that after passing the examination and becoming a civil servant, in addition to a fixed salary, there are quite generous benefits. Spring and autumn clothes, summer clothes, winter clothes and other three sets of work clothes are one of them. After 2 years, you can apply again.

At first, Frederick was half-believing, but after seeing the poncho on this gentleman today, he realized that the rumors were true.

Because the Government Affairs Department does not sell “jellyfish oil” to the outside world at all, and there is nowhere to buy such a poncho with “jellyfish oil”, there is no other possibility other than the possibility of “issued by the Government Affairs Department”.

It’s really enviable. It’s a pity that I don’t know how to read, otherwise I can apply for the assessment, Frederick thought secretly.

However, apart from admiration, Frederick was also a little embarrassed. In his opinion, the civil servant is definitely a decent person. It is really rude to let such a gentleman see his leaky home everywhere.

At this moment, the civil servant suddenly spoke, and his voice was deep and powerful: “Frederick, right? I’m the civil servant Charlotte of the Civil Affairs Department.”

“The Government Affairs Office has received an early warning that this storm will become even bigger tomorrow, and your house may not be able to withstand the fierce storm.”

“For safety reasons, please go to the temporary shelter south of Redstone Town immediately. It is a newly built material warehouse. It is very sturdy. You only need to bring a change of clothes. The shelter will provide free food and water…”

Taking a look at the young girl in Vera’s arms, Charlotte added: “There are two doctors in the shelter, they are in charge of emergency treatment… By the way, do you know the specific location of the shelter?”

Frederick suddenly showed a look of surprise and joy, and said repeatedly: “We know, we know…”

Some time ago, Renault presided over the construction of the warehouse, and made a huge movement, and everyone in the territory knew it.

Those warehouses are almost turned into scenic spots. Although they have been completed for a long time, many people just wandered around there to enjoy the masterpieces of Lord Lord.

Charlotte nodded in satisfaction, took out a notepad from under the poncho, and quickly wrote on it.

Then he said: “You can go by yourself. If you need additional help, we will send someone to take you to the shelter later…”

The first storm after entering the storm season, although it was only a small storm, it still caused huge losses to the Tide Islands.

Looking at the shocking figures on the statistical report, Miss Archon couldn’t help sighing lightly, her brows frowned tightly. At this moment, she really regretted agreeing to accept the post of Archon.

Of the more than 300 households in Hongshi Town alone, nearly one-third of the residents and more than 400 people were affected. More than 20 houses collapsed, more than 80 houses were severely damaged, 5 people were killed and 37 people were injured.

In the other two villages, due to the inconvenience of transportation, it is too late to report the statistical data, but the figures are certainly not much better.

The island of Theron is even more black, and I am afraid that the situation will not be clarified until the storm has stopped.

It is worth noting that the above statistics are almost all new “immigrants” this year.

This is also one of the sequelae of this year’s population boom.

The two brain-disabled former lords only cared about plundering the population, but the infrastructure has not kept up. Many new “immigrants” can only live in simple wooden houses, some of which can’t even be called wooden houses, at best. Count the shack.

Such a “burrow” can shelter from the wind and rain, but once it encounters such a storm, it collapses in minutes.

Because of this, the damage caused by this storm to the Tide Islands is more serious than imagined.

In the face of such natural and man-made calamities, can the Government Affairs Office ignore it?

Of course not!

If the government affairs office does nothing and let it go, the residents of the island will dare to show it to the government affairs office!

In the next few months, a storm and a more severe blizzard were enough to destroy one-third of the houses. The civilians who lost their houses must not survive the cold winter.

If people are almost dead, what kind of fields are there to grow?

The girl knows very well that in Renault’s industrialized “farming plan”, sufficient human resources are very necessary, so the Government Affairs Department must not sit idly by.

This also means tedious and trivial disaster relief work, as well as more time-consuming and labor-intensive post-disaster reconstruction work. As the supreme consul, the girl will add a long list of items to the to-do list, and she will also be busy for a long time.

But the next moment, the girl completely forgot this emotion.

The arrogant lady consul has always been tough, so she won’t be overwhelmed by a little difficulty. It’s her style to face difficulties.

Now Renault and Moose are out training, she is the backbone of the territory, so she can only carry on the disaster relief work alone.

At this time, a small room was crowded with all the directors who had been summoned urgently, and everyone looked at the lady consul who was standing at the forefront with serious faces.

On the wall behind the girl, there is a wooden blackboard on which is drawn a Gantt chart, no, Reynolds chart.

“Mr. responsible for emptying the warehouse, please tell me how is the work going?” The girl knocked on the blackboard with the chalk in her hand and asked loudly.

“We plan to set up warehouses 2 and 3 as temporary shelters. The materials in warehouse 2 have been moved to warehouse 1, and warehouse 3 has also been vacated by 50%. It is expected to be completed within 2 hours…” The slightly nervous voice replied immediately.

“Good job! The total area of ​​the two warehouses exceeds 2000 square meters. It should be enough for the victims to squeeze…”

While speaking, the girl motioned to the secretary Lena to mark the “Renault Map” accordingly.

“Then how will the victims be distributed? How does the Civil Affairs Department plan to arrange it?”

“We plan to distribute on a family basis…” Another voice rang.

The girl rejected the plan without hesitation: “No! It’s easy to make troubles, men and women must live separately, and children can follow their mother…”

“Yes! Let’s re-plan now…” The voice of the Secretary for Civil Affairs sounded a little frightened.

“What about food and drinking water… There is enough food in the warehouse. Don’t worry about that. What about drinking water?”

“By the way, remember to tell all the victims not to drink raw water directly, that is, water that has not been boiled, and to prepare some fuel for boiling water.”

The gentleman who answered this question reacted quickly, “There are a total of 45 fire-proof water storage tanks in the warehouse, and there is a small river nearby. In case the drinking water runs out, we can organize the victims to go to the river to carry water…”

“As for fuel, I remember that there is a lot of black oil stored in the Rune Research Institute. We can directly use the black oil to boil water. However, your Excellency, I need your order, otherwise the research institute will not pay attention to me…”

The girl immediately replied: “No problem, go and draw up an official document, and I will sign it for you…”

“There is another item, hygiene and epidemic prevention? This is very important. With so many people crowded together, what if an infectious disease breaks out?”

The directors looked at each other and didn’t know how to answer.

The girl pinched her eyebrows with a headache, and she also knew that this question was a bit difficult for the group of directors.

Had it not been for Renault to mention to her, “Special attention should be paid to hygiene and epidemic prevention during disaster relief”, I am afraid she would not have thought of this.

After carefully recalling several points that Renault had said, the girl slowly said: “In addition to the shelter, we also need to set up a quarantine area and a quarantine area separately. Only after quarantine and confirmation that there is no infectious disease, can we enter the shelter area …”

The following group of directors took out their notepads and began to take notes in shorthand.

“The victims who are confirmed to be ill are temporarily placed in the isolation area, so those who enter and leave the isolation area must also be disinfected…”

“Let’s talk about sanitation and disinfection…”
