"Sister, is it really possible to build such a big pool?" Ma Youcai asked Li Yun anxiously when he heard that there would be a drought.
"Brother, I'm not sure about this. I want to give it a try. Only by trying can I know if it works." If it were in the previous life, this large pool would be a small problem, but in this backward ancient time, without cement, sand and gravel, it is very difficult to build a large pool.
"Sister, I believe in you. Just tell me if you need anything. If the pond in Qingshan Village is successful, I hope you can build one in other villages to help the people survive the drought." Ma Youcai said to Li Yun.
"If it can be built, my sister will help build one in other villages," Li Yun promised.
"Brother, on behalf of the people of Qingshan County, would like to thank my sister for her righteousness." Ma Youcai said gratefully.
Cheng Shan looked at Li Yun with admiration, thinking that she was a woman who cared about the people and that her actions were admirable.
Li Yun followed Ma Youcai and Cheng Shan home while talking, and soon they returned home.
Ma Youcai felt that he should return to the county government office tomorrow and ask the constables and yamen runners to notify the village heads in each village and ask them to dig more wells in case of any emergency.
Thinking of the law that his sister had mentioned before, he decided to ask her tonight what the law was. If it could be helpful to the Jin Dynasty, he would compile it and return to Beijing to present it to the emperor.
After figuring it out, Ma Youcai wanted to talk to his sister after dinner.
Li Yun returned home and started preparing dinner.
An hour passed and dinner was finally cooked.
I called everyone over for dinner, and Shangguan Feiyun had just gotten up.
As usual, Li Yun prepared two sumptuous meals, both of which were quickly eaten up.
"Sister, big brother wants to discuss something with you. Can we go to the study to talk?" After dinner, Ma Youcai said to Li Yun.
"Okay." After saying that, he took Ma Youcai to the study.
"Sister, can you tell me about the law we talked about before?" After sitting down, Ma Youcai told Li Yun his purpose.
“So it’s because of this, of course.
The law that big brother wants to know is... "Li Yun told Ma Youcai the laws of his previous life one by one, including the Constitution, Criminal Law, Economic Law, Allowances, etc. The two did not return to their room to rest until midnight.
Ma Youcai was shocked by the laws his sister mentioned. If these laws were promoted in the Jin Dynasty, who knows what earth-shaking changes would occur, and the people would benefit the most.
Li Yun first went to see Shangguan Feiyun, who was watching Romance of the Three Kingdoms in the cinema.
After dinner, Shangguan Feiyun asked Li Yun to open the video room so that he could watch Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Li Yun knew that the general had slept all day and had a good rest, so he would definitely not be able to sleep at night. He also knew that the general had a special liking for the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and wanted to learn the strategies in it, so he had to let him continue reading.
Li Yun watched with Shangguan Feiyun for a quarter of an hour and then went back to his room to sleep.
The next day, after breakfast, everyone did what they had to do. Ma Youcai took Dingxiang back to the county government office to do some work. Shangguan Feiyun watched a movie all night as usual and now went back to sleep.
Li Yun took the drilling tools he bought from Haoduoduo and went to Qingshan Village to find a place to drill a well.
These tools were all purchased from Haoduoduo and are the most advanced equipment in the previous life.
Li Yun detected a place to dig a well in every household in Qingshan Village, marked it out, and asked the villagers to bring workers to dig.
The villagers of Qingshan Village have been preparing for the possibility of a drought since the village chief held a village meeting and told them that they should make preparations in advance.
The villagers also saw that the water level in the river had dropped significantly. Some older villagers recalled that the same situation occurred during the last drought. The water level slowly dropped until there was no water in the river. When the villagers had no water and were thirsty, some people would die of thirst. Many people died that time, and some of their relatives were the old villagers who survived.
Thinking of the last drought, the older generation of villagers in Qingshan Village were horrified. No, this must not happen again.
When the village chief told the old villagers about Li Yun's method, they agreed and told their sons and grandsons to do as Li Yun said.
The next day, the village chief led the villagers to start digging a well at the place marked by Li Yun.
While the villagers of Qingshan Village were busy digging a well, Li Yun was also busy. She thought that if she used ancient mud to build such a large pool, it would easily collapse when encountering strong winds and heavy rains. What should she use to build a sturdy pool?
She thought of the cement from her previous life, but how could she get the cement out?
After thinking for a long time, he couldn't come up with a good excuse. For the sake of the villagers of Qingshan Village, Li Yun had to take the risk of his secret being discovered and secretly purchased ten tons of cement and one hundred cubic meters of sand from Haoduoduo.
The next day, he secretly went into the mountains, put cement in the cave, and then put sand in the yard where Shangguan Feiyun lived.
Under the protection of the black bear, he walked out of the Daqing Mountain, took out space water from the space, let the black bear sing enough, and then said goodbye to the reluctant black bear.
The black bear was the one Li Yun sent out as a distress signal when he entered the entrance of the deep mountains. The black bear was very happy to see Li Yun and kept howling. Li Yun gently stroked it, gave it enough space and water to drink, and then led the black bear forward.
When Li Yun returned to Qingshan Village, the villagers had already dug two wells, both of which were 10 meters wide and 50 meters deep.
After returning home, Li Yun went to look for Shangguan Feiyun. He found Shangguan Feiyun in his room. Shangguan Feiyun was sleeping soundly at the moment. Li Yun woke him up and told him the purpose of looking for him.
"Shangguan Feiyun, I have something to discuss with you." Li Yun said to Shangguan Feiyun with a serious face.
"What's the matter? Yun'er, just tell me." Shangguan Feiyun saw Li Yun's expression and said seriously.
"It's like this..." Li Yun told Shangguan Feiyun everything from how the village chief had asked her to talk about the falling water level to how she wanted to dig a well and build a large pool. She also told him the purpose of her visit today.
"I just hope that when you ask people to fetch cement and sand, you can tell them that you bought these from other countries." Li Yun let Shangguan Feiyun take the blame.
"No problem. Just push anything to me. I have a high status and position, so it makes sense for me to say that." Shangguan Feiyun did not hesitate and helped Li Yun to take the blame.
The next day, An Er and An San followed Shangguan Feiyun, pulling ten ox carts, to the cave in Daqing Mountain. When they saw bags of unknown things in the cave, they all looked at Shangguan Feiyun.
"Master, what is this?" An Er asked the question on behalf of everyone, risking being scolded by Shangguan Feiyun.
"This is called cement, and I had someone buy it from Goryeo." This was the country he and Yun'er discussed replacing yesterday.
Goryeo is far away from here and is not afraid of its lies being exposed.
