Chapter 81 Have you found it?



Riverbank Commander Zheng Shuyu?

Gu Zhenbei was often on the road, either leading troops to fight or suppressing bandits, and he rarely served in Beijing.

He had only heard of this person but was not familiar with him.

All I remember is that this man embezzled government funds, cut corners on construction, and caused the river embankment to collapse.

This resulted in countless casualties and displacement of the people.

According to the Dajing Code, if an official who was building the canal neglected his duties and caused the embankment to collapse, his entire family would be executed.

He couldn't understand why Zheng Shuyu was able to change the emperor's grace and sentence him to exile?

Gu Zhenbei was full of doubts and couldn't figure it out.

Qian Wuyou and Wei Wenshan were on duty in Beijing and knew some inside information about the matter.

The two looked at each other and chose to remain silent.

...

...

Xiao Jingzhou ordered: "Search the whole city for Zheng Shuyu.

In addition, post notices widely.

The government office is recruiting talented people. Anyone in the city who is proficient in water conservancy can sign up.

If a solution is proposed and it is adopted, the person who proposes it will be rewarded with 50 kilograms of grain and three large jars of clean water. ”

Zhiyi City has been short of food and water for a long time. Fifty kilograms of grain and three large jars of grain are already considered a generous reward.

Yang Jin accepted the order and said, "Yes! I will have someone arrange it right away."

After Yang Jin left the government office, he immediately arranged for people to search the entire city for Zheng Shuyu.

In addition, scouts were sent outside the city to explore the conditions of the two river beds.

After everyone left, Xiao Jingzhou wanted to write a letter to ask Jiang Zhenyu if he had any technology that could solve this problem.

He saw the letter in the wooden bowl.

Five hours?

He pursed his lips, and it seemed that finding Zheng Shuyu was urgent.

Xiao Jingzhou thought for a moment, then picked up the pen to write a letter.

Thinking that he could send a message to Jiang Zhenyu as soon as possible after five hours.

[Miss Jiang, not long ago, when we were outside Zhiyi City, a dragon rolled over and caused damage to two riverbeds.

Zhiyi City is low-lying.

If the river is diverted at this time, it is likely to flood Zhiyi City.

However, I have ordered people to find the river embankment captain and search the city for people who are knowledgeable about water conservancy to find a solution.

I hope the girl can give me some time. 】

Xiao Jingzhou had just finished writing the letter.

Lu Chen hurried back from outside the house.

"Your Highness, the sand table made by General Yang has been moved into the government office.

Let me invite His Highness over. ”

Not long after Xiao Jingzhou gave the order, Yang Jin brought the sand table over and was quite efficient.

He pressed the letter with a paperweight, stood up and said, "Let's go."

Xiao Jingzhou strode out. Lu Chen saw the letter on the table and glanced at it quickly.

Without thinking, he threw it into the wooden bowl.

When he turned around, Xiao Jingzhou was nowhere to be seen.

Lu Chen picked up the wooden bowl, put it into his small bag, and hurriedly caught up with Xiao Jingzhou.

The lobby of the government office.

Several people looked out the door eagerly, waiting for Xiao Jingzhou to preside over the distribution.

Xiao Jingzhou strode into the room, and Gu Zhenbei took the lead in saluting.

"No need to be polite."

Xiao Jingzhou approached the sand table and found that it was not an exaggeration to describe it as shoddy.

A one-meter-wide sand table with a few stones on it serves as the top of the hill, and Zhiyi City is surrounded by a few branches to form a frame.

The other two rivers are even simpler.

There was a piece of cloth stuck on the sand table that was picked up from somewhere. It was covered with grease and dirt, and its original color could not be seen.

Yang Jin looked at Xiao Jingzhou's face and said with a wry smile:

"This is an urgent matter. I hope Your Highness will forgive me."

Xiao Jingzhou glanced at him and said calmly, "Let's get started."

Yang Jin stopped smiling and looked serious.

"The scouts reported back that the situation is more grim than we thought."

He pointed at the Luoxia River and said, "The riverbed here is broken in many places, and many holes torn by earth dragons run through the river."

After that, he pointed to the Bi Cang River and said, “It is ten kilometers away from Zhiyi City, and it is not easy to get water.

The scouts reported that the riverbed was sunken, and the ground around it was cracked in many places, covering the entire city.

The most important thing is that the original high ground collapsed due to the earth dragon.

If the river water is diverted here, it will not only flow back into Zhiyi City.

The water will also flow to other countries' borders. ”

There is a shortage of water everywhere in the north. If the water flow is discovered by other countries, it will inevitably be snatched up by other countries.

Thus causing war.

Zhiyi City has not yet recovered.

Of the 20,000 soldiers in the city, at least half were still queuing up to have their intestines cleaned.

I am afraid it will be difficult to resist the invasion of the enemy.

After a long while, Xiao Jingzhou finally spoke: "What do you think?"

Several people looked at each other, and finally lowered their heads without saying a word.

Seeing this situation, Xiao Jingzhou had almost guessed it.

When it comes to water conservancy, no one dares to make a statement easily unless they are 100% sure.

What's more, none of the four officials present were good at this.

He said, "In this case, let's wait until we find Mr. Zheng before discussing this."

The few people dispersed again, and Xiao Jingzhou called Yang Jin.

"I wonder what your Highness wants me to do?"

Xiao Jingzhou asked, "Is there anyone in the city who knows about water conservancy willing to sign up?"

Yang Jin shook his head honestly: "No."

He then quickly added: "Perhaps I have not informed the public well enough, and the people in the city have not yet fully understood.

I will arrange more people to look for Lord Zheng's whereabouts. ”

After Yang Jin left, Xiao Jingzhou took Lu Chen out of the city.

The two of them went first to Luoxia River, which was close to Zhiyi City.

Just as Yang Jin said, the riverbed was dry and cracked.

The large and small tears left by the earth dragons crisscross each other, making the view horrifying.

Xiao Jingzhou asked, "If the river water is diverted to the lowest point of Luoxia River, will it not flood back into Zhiyi City?"

Lu Chen hesitated and spoke:

“But this water flows into these cracks, and not only can’t store water.

It is also difficult for people to get water.

If you are not careful, you will fall into the tear. ”

It was rare to see a trace of dejection on Xiao Jingzhou's face.

Lu Chen couldn’t bear it: “Your Highness, there will always be a way to solve it.

Don't forget, you have God's help.

If you pray to God with all your heart, there will be nothing that God will not grant you. ”

Xiao Jingzhou squatted down, grabbed a clod of earth with his left hand, and crushed it with a little force.

The broken soil poured and scattered from his fingertips.

He stood up, his eyes becoming determined: "Trace the map back, I will definitely be able to think of a solution!"

21st century.

Jiang Zhenyu got off the plane and looked up at the gray sky.

It was a five-hour flight, but she couldn't buy a first-class ticket and had to take business class.

She hadn't been exercising properly for too long and was exhausted.

She walked out of the airport with her suitcase and took a taxi to the hotel.

"drop!"

Jiang Zhenyu opened the door and asked the hotel to send two fruit platters and a bottle of red wine upstairs.

She was going to take a bath and relax.

As soon as she opened her bag and took out the disposable bathtub cover, she saw the letter from Xiao Jingzhou.

time?

No problem.

However, Zhiyi City is low-lying and is beyond her knowledge.

She wrote a letter to Xiao Jingzhou.

[Have you found the person?] 】

After sending the letter, she opened the freezer and took out a bottle of water and opened it.

After taking a few sips, a letter appeared in the wooden bowl.

[Not yet.] 】

No?

Jiang Zhenyu didn't know the situation in Zhiyi City and couldn't come up with any good solutions.

I can only write a letter to tell Xiao Jingzhou.

[Don't worry, there will always be a way.

If it really doesn't work, I will first give you a small amount of water to ensure that Zhiyi City will not be flooded. 】

The wooden bowl flashed.

Jiang Zhenyu finally understood Xiao Jingzhou's concerns.

Can’t store water?

Is it easy to get into trouble when getting water?

These are all big problems.

[Please bring your learning machine over and I will save some videos of 21st century water conservancy projects for you.

Please filter it and see if it is useful to you. 】
