Chapter 375 Following Your Wish_1

Meng Lanqing continued, "In Jing Tian County, the water has reached waist height. Of the 7,000 jin of rice and 10,000 jin of grains stored in the rice shops, nearly half are soaked in the water. Once the water recedes, the parts near the ground are estimated to have rotted and will need to be rebuilt... A preliminary estimate is that the loss will be at least two thousand taels."

An Jing wasn't particularly concerned about how much property she had lost, as wealth could be earned and bought again. She was only concerned about the people, "How is everyone in the shop? Are they alright?"

Meng Lanqing replied, "Jing Tian County is quite far from Shi River, so everyone had already run to the rooftops for refuge when the water came. There were no casualties in the rice shop."

"That's good." An Jing nodded and let out a deep sigh before adding, "With such a severe disaster, the Imperial Court should send officials to provide relief, right?"
