Chapter 3962 Responsibilities and Obligations

Although there was no concept of the Little Ice Age in ancient China, China has always had professionals and professional families engaged in astronomy and calendaring since the concept of Taishi Ling, and all Chinese calendars since ancient times have involved farming.

Therefore, those who make calendars must be proficient in the four seasons, climate and hydrology. This is why the ancient Qintian Prison had little sense of existence, but it was extremely important. Basically, these people can be seen in all major events, because in essence

To put it bluntly, this is a noble official position.

This is also the reason why the Gan and Shi families are very powerful. They have a monopoly on this profession. After all, this position was very important to people's livelihood and agriculture in ancient times.

It is obvious that the Gan and Shi families have indeed neglected climate change in recent years. They are well aware of Chen Xi's talent, so the Gan and Shi families have already transferred most of their people to mathematics and astronomy.

In addition, all the shameless families, when leaving the Central Plains, in order to save trouble, always marry a girl who understands climatology and agricultural calendar making to the Gan family or the Shi family to be the wife of a legitimate son of the main lineage. Think about it

When the Yong family left, they knew that they would marry a young lady from the Gan family who knew climatology. Are other families stupid?

Of course other families are not stupid. Compared with raising one by yourself, it is simpler. Just marry a girl from the Gan family or the Shi family who understands this. In this way, when a child is born, the mother will teach the child and continue the operation.

.

As for the accuracy that cannot be perfect, what kind of perfection is required? For major aristocratic families, it is good to be able to operate. If you are self-taught, it is basically a dream, so you should marry a girl.

Over time, the young ladies from the Gan family and the Shi family have all been married off, and even women from the aunt's generation who have been married off and returned from widowhood are getting married again.

Is remarriage a problem these days? Besides, the major aristocratic families want talents who can work, not the girl’s appearance. It doesn’t matter whether they are ugly or beautiful. They can observe local climate changes, hydrology and astronomical phenomena.

Just let them farm.

So the girls from the Gan family and the Shi family who stayed in the Qintian prison to work as odd jobs got married one after another. What? What do you think the male compatriots of the Gan family were doing? They were either at the observatory or doing calculations, observing celestial phenomena, and recording

Even my sisters can do something as simple as making rainfall...

Because of this idea, when the Gan family and the Shi family returned to Chang'an, they discovered that all the little girls they had arranged to live in Chang'an were gone. They were either married by one family or taken away by that family. The entire Qintian Prison

It actually relies on a group of kids and octogenarians to run it. What's even more frightening is that it can still keep running.

Later, the two families met and asked what happened. They both said that an old friend came to him and said that he heard that you have a daughter. I have a son of the right age. How about marrying him? Such an old daughter is in Qintian Prison.

Whatever it is like to stay there, the elders of the Gan and Shi families are naturally in charge.

Anyway, we are going to marry someone, and the other person is also a good family, and the age is right, so it's accurate.

As it turned out, Chen Xi's talent for conquering the country could not withstand the Little Ice Age, and the Gan and Shi families simply missed it. Now they began to desperately search for information to determine the scope and intensity of the disaster.

After all, their family can be regarded as being ordered by the ancestors. They belong properly, are entrusted by others, and are loyal to others. This is what they shoulder. What can I say?

"First notify the Weiyang Palace and the Political Yuan, and send an urgent secret message to the Taiwei." The old man of the Shi family said directly, "From today on, all rotations will be cancelled. Everyone is on standby to calculate the number of victims as soon as possible.

The exact area, as well as the changes in the snowstorm, are prepared, we may need to conduct field inspections, and there may be deaths.”

The cruel point of the Han Dynasty is that when a large-scale disastrous climate really occurs, Taishi Ling will go to the front line during disaster relief. If you don't go to the front line, how can you record the disaster and determine climate change on the spot? This is what you do. Don't even think about it.

Just let go if something goes wrong.

What's even more cruel is that if a very big disaster occurs, the emperor will go to the scene in person. Simply put, the eldest princess is now the regent and the prime minister of world affairs. Once the disaster reaches a certain level, the eldest princess has to go, and the eldest princess will go

Now, none of the ministers can escape.

There are many records about the Yellow River bursting its banks in the Han Dynasty. During the Western Han Dynasty, Wang Jing was not born yet, so the Yellow River burst its banks frequently, and people in the Central Plains were almost accustomed to it.

As a result, one year, it rained heavily, and the Yellow River burst its banks, flooding sixteen counties. Because the matter was so serious, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty personally went to the banks of the Yellow River, mobilized tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and almost brought all the three officials and nine ministers of the court with him.

Qi, settled this matter.

The original text of the Han Shugou Zhizhi states that Shang Nai sent Ji Ren and Guo Chang to send out tens of thousands of soldiers to plug gourds to cross the river. So Shang sent thousands of miles of sand to cross the river, and then returned to the river to cross the river. He made white horses and jade, and ordered all the ministers to serve from the general to the general.

Negative wages set the river.

There were many unpleasant rules in ancient times, but one good thing is that if the predecessors did the right thing, then when the same situation occurs, future generations will have to follow suit.

Emperor Wu personally went up to the throne, and the three princes and nine ministers, including Tai Shi Ling, all carried sandbags up the embankment to block the Yellow River. What should we do if the same situation happens later? Of course we should continue!

Your ancestor, Emperor Xiaowu, did this, so you should do the same, so when a large-scale climate disaster occurs, no one can escape, everyone has to get there.

Therefore, after seeing the change in the sky, the old men of the Shi family knew that they would not survive this year. Because of the weather and the blizzard, they needed to go to the field for inspection in person. Even if there was a bicycle frame to protect them, they would be exhausted in the blizzard.

Under this, it will definitely be doomed.

But those who work in this industry must be able to bear this responsibility. From the Spring and Autumn Period to the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Gan and Shi families have always had this meal. Gan Shi did not fall when the country was destroyed. From the Taishi Order, they were almost monopolized. Isn't it because of them?

Are there set responsibilities?

"Pack up and prepare to go to various places to investigate." Shi Tao suppressed the grief in his heart and ordered his old man to take over. He knew very well that at this time, if you go into the wild for field inspections, some people will definitely not come back. This is not a matter of how many people you bring with you.

It's something that can be solved by a guard, but at this age, I can't stand this kind of torment.

"Yes, Patriarch!" The younger generation, who had never experienced such a thing, were a little eager to try it at this time, while the older generation, who had experienced it, looked solemn. They knew the danger of this matter very well, so they quickly said that the elders

The team was formed using new methods.

Before the heavy snow turned into a blizzard, most of the Gan family and Shi family had already put on thick fleece jackets and carried a large amount of dry food, either on foot or on horseback, to their data collection point in the wild. These days, these

Thousands of years of continuous hydrological and climate data have been recorded at the risk of death. Only with such large-scale data can accurate judgments be made.

Before Chen Xi could return home, Li You sent someone to recall him to the Government Affairs Office.

"What happened?" Chen Xi asked.

"Two things, two letters, you will know after you read it yourself." Li Youyan said concisely and concisely. Chen Xi nodded, directly reached out to take it, and opened it. The first letter was Liu Bei's letter.

The content is not complicated, but it is terrible. Liu Bei went to Bingzhou, and the heavy snowfall in the northern part of Bingzhou was already higher than a person's height. This has completely exceeded the record of the past ten years. Although the local area said that because of Chen Xi's consistent orders to reserve grain and grass supplies,

There are currently no problems.

According to Liu Bei's description, the food problem is not big, but the charcoal fire is obviously insufficient, and the snow is too heavy, resulting in no place to collect firewood. Under normal circumstances, when the snow is not heavy in winter, the people themselves will go out to collect firewood or go to the mines to pick up coal.

, but there is nothing that can be done about it now.

According to Liu Bei's estimation, most people's firewood should not be able to withstand twenty days, but Liu Bei didn't think that the snow could be melted within twenty days. The snow was as high as one person. Even if the snow stopped later, it would be difficult to go out.

, plus the temperature this year is significantly colder than last year, the fire pit requires more firewood.

In short, the core problem is very clear. The people may not be able to hold on, especially the people in the Yanbian area in the north. There is a high probability that the people in the Yanbian area in the north will not be able to hold on. Because of Chen Xi’s habit, the ranch has a huge amount of various supplies. Even if they are buried in the snow, the problem

It's not that big, but the people in the north can't.

"This is really bad." Chen Xi had a headache. Because of his spiritual talent, Chen Xi had not considered the issue of climate disasters in the past ten years, because his spiritual talent could balance the climate. As long as he could withstand it,

There is no need to worry about climate disasters.

But this time, Chen Xi resisted, but because the territory was too large and the population was too small, the climate adjustment level was still within Chen Xi's limit, but the output of mental energy could not withstand the harshness of the climate. To put it simply,

That is, a large-scale disastrous climate has become a small-scale one.

Although the Little Ice Age hit the end of Han Dynasty, various large-scale disastrous climates occurred frequently, which even if they were contained, would be very fatal for normal climate.

"Ask the governor of Bingzhou to mobilize supplies, prepare to clear the snow, open the treasury, and provide briquettes to the people in the same way as Her Royal Highness the Princess puts out snacks." Chen Xi pressed his temples. The snow was already so thick that the army could only move out to clear it.

It's snowing, "First open all the main roads to ensure smooth flow, send a message to Xianhe, and let Xianhe be ready to mobilize supplies."

Li Youwei nodded. Chen Xi's thoughts were basically the same as his. Since the snow disaster cannot be avoided, then be realistic and rush to provide disaster relief. As for other matters, postpone them first.

"What is the other letter?" Chen Xi asked as he opened the envelope. When he opened it, he found that it was not a letter, but the coverage and intensity estimates of the snow disaster reported by the Gan and Shi families, as well as the possibility of catastrophic cooling.
