39 039 Inspection
◎ Are you sure it's on the way? ◎
In fact, since arriving in Gusu City, Master Kang basically wants Mo Yu to accompany him for dinner every day.
But in the past few days, whether it is lunch or dinner, it has not been successful once.
Because Master Kang has been busy recently, when he came back after finishing his work, he asked someone to invite Mo Yu over, but the reply he got was "The young master of the Lin family has already gone to bed"...
Master Kang was very helpless about this - that is, this little kid of the Lin family can really sleep, it feels like he can sleep for more than ten hours a day, right?
He even recalled that once he summoned this child to accompany him for dinner, this child fell asleep directly on the chair in the middle of the meal, which was really laughable.
But because this child is so cute, he couldn't bear to disturb the child's sleep, so he let his mother take him back.
During the days in Yangzhou, the mother and son returned to the house he had just given to Lin Ruhai.
Master Kang also hoped that their family could relax here for a few days. When they arrived in Beijing, they might not be so comfortable. The whole family would definitely go to Beijing. How could such a young child leave the care of his biological mother and sisters?
Except for Lin Ruhai, all the Lin family members went to Beijing.
Otherwise, they could also be given a house in Beijing.
Oh, the Lin family has a house in Beijing?
That's even better.
It just so happens that you don't need to unpack the luggage you brought from Suzhou to Yangzhou. Just pack it up and send it to Beijing...
Master Kang and Lin Ruhai exchanged a few words and decided to move the family to the north.
Here we have to say that Master Kang is indeed a meticulous boss. Since he has made up his mind to get Mo Yu to the capital, he must have arranged everything for Mo Yu properly, so that Mo Yu will not have any worries at all.
Specifically, the plan he gave to the Lin family was as follows: Lin Ruhai accompanied him and sent Jia Min, Xiao Daiyu, and Mo Yu to live in the old Lin family house in the capital. Because he himself served as the inspector of the salt and siege, he had a harder job and traveled between Yangzhou and the capital.
The job responsibilities of the inspector of the salt and siege were not much different from his previous job as a doctor in Lantai Temple. They all ran around to investigate cases - mainly the cases of investigating corruption in the original job of the inspector and catching smugglers in the salt administration.
Compared with the previous doctor of Lantai Temple, the power of the inspector of salt is greater and the scope of responsibilities is wider, because it involves the huge interests of salt development, and of course it is more dangerous.
This is one of the reasons why Master Kang had to bring his wife and children to the capital.
If it is still the same as before, in his hometown of Gusu or in Yangzhou, the emperor is far away, and there will inevitably be people who will repeat the old tricks and take action against the elderly, weak women and children of the Lin family in an attempt to hinder Lin Ruhai's investigation.
After all, this time, Lin Ruhai is going to move the salt policy. No one knows how deep the water is in it better than Master Kang.
Then shouldn't he quickly bring his family to the capital and protect them under his nose?
Otherwise, it will be very disappointing for Master Lin who is running around and working hard.
Master Kang knows how to employ people, and also knows how to make the people he values willingly be employed by him.
So the move was decided.
Just as Mo Yu could not refuse Master Kang's order to let him go to the capital to accompany the younger brothers in their studies, Lin Ruhai, Jia Min and Xiao Daiyu certainly could not disobey the order and not move.
Not only did they have to move, but they also had to move quickly and well.
As for Lin Ruhai, because he had to work in Yangzhou frequently, some daily necessities had to be left in his mansion in Yangzhou, but he had to return to the capital at least twice a year to report to Master Kang, so some things that had to be moved to the capital were also important.
As for Jia Min, Xiao Daiyu and Mo Yu, they had to move even more things, because the three of them would mainly live in the capital.
Mo Yu was going to Beijing to accompany the princes in their studies.
Master Kang clearly stipulated that the princes of the royal family must start to learn at the age of five, so now the fifteenth, sixteenth and seventeenth princes have all started to learn, and have even studied for a few years. The
youngest, the eighteenth prince, will be three years old soon, and will have to go to school in one or two years at most. Mo Yu will have to accompany them in their studies for several years, so it is estimated that she will not be able to return to Jiangnan for at least ten years.
With this in mind, Jia Min personally instructed several trusted maids and wives to pack their luggage, and told them which people and things should stay in the old house in Suzhou, which should stay with Lin Ruhai in the house next to the residence of Yangzhou Xunyan Yu Shi, and which should follow the three of them to Beijing.
In fact, this matter is simple to say, but it is still very difficult to arrange it properly in a short time.
But Jia Min arranged it easily, and Mo Yu was shocked after just listening to it.
[Emma, my cheap mother is comparable to an excellent CEO. Look at this organizational management ability, it is really top-notch! My son admires it. ]
Because of the setting of the voice outward, Mo Yu's praise was naturally heard by Jia Min and others.
Lin Ruhai and Xiao Daiyu agreed deeply. Even if they could not express their approval directly due to restrictions, they could praise Jia Min again in their own language. Their wife was already very capable. Why? Their Mo Ge was allowed to praise her, but they could not? Of
course they could.
Moreover, with their cultural level, they could praise her for half an hour without repeating themselves...
Mo Yu, who knew nothing about this, said: Shuan Q, this doesn't have to be true.
The masters are like this, so of course the maids, mothers, housekeepers, and servants should follow suit.
So the whole Lin family was immediately filled with a happy atmosphere.
Jia Min was very happy to hear the heartfelt praise from her husband, children, and the servants in the house, and she became more and more adept at arranging affairs.
Master Kang is a man of action. Since he has decided to return to Beijing, he will not delay on the road unless it is necessary.
Fortunately, under Jia Min's arrangement, the Lin family quickly packed up everything and did not waste any time, so they could continue to drive on.
Under Master Kang's decision, the large group of people in the southern tour stopped in Yangzhou for a while and then started to head north again. However, Master Kang's return route design was still a little tortuous compared to the time they came from Beijing this time.
Because he was really worried about the water conservancy projects along the way, since he was here, he had to see them with his own eyes to feel at ease...
So he walked around Gaoyou and Baoying, and even went to Gaojiayan to inspect the river works, and stayed in Guansheng Temple for a long time.
Anyway, the main point is to inspect them thoroughly, not to take a straight line.
And what's more terrible is that he has to take Mo Yu with him wherever he goes.
Because he likes Mo Yu more and more. He doesn't talk much, but he has a lot of psychological activities-what he says may not be the truth, but what he thinks in his heart is definitely.
The key is that this child not only thinks the truth in his heart, he can also "predict" and "communicate with gods"... Who can not love him.
The old man wants to be with the child of the Lin family every day, just to know what he thinks every day.
It would be even better if they could come up with some useful things like "medical colleges" and "prescriptions"...
With this in mind, Master Kang always takes Mo Yu with him whenever he goes out.
For example, when he went to inspect the dam this time, he had a bit of the mentality of a blind cat catching a rat - what if this child, or the god who can "communicate with spirits", also knows some good ways to build water conservancy?
Wouldn't that be a big win?
Even if not, it wouldn't be a loss.
So, Master Kang issued an order, asking Mo Yu to accompany them to inspect the dam that day.
Mo Yu originally didn't plan to go with him, but because he happened to sleep too much the night before and had never seen such a purely man-made dam, he accepted Master Kang's invitation and went with him.
Jia Min and Xiao Daiyu were of course going to accompany them, and even Lin Ruhai, who happened to have no cases to investigate today, took the initiative to follow them.
Counting all these, there were already quite a few people surrounding Mo Yu. But what Mo Yu did not expect was that Wang Bin was also here.
After hearing that Mo Yu was coming, she took the initiative to ask Master Kang to join her, just to have more contact with Mo Yu and the others.
Ever since Mo Yu gave Wang Bin the prescription for treating a child's critical illness last time, this beautiful lady has treated him more and more affectionately. It is no exaggeration to say that she is basically like a adopted son.
Mo Yu can understand this very well. In fact, it is mainly the so-called "empathy effect".
The youngest son of this concubine, the Eighteenth Prince, was not even three years old yet, but she had been away for several months to accompany Master Kang on his southern tour. Although this also meant that she was being favored, she must have missed her child very much after being separated from him.
Mo Yu happened to appear at this time, and he was about the same age as the Eighteenth Prince. It was just like a pillow that a sleepy person had found, and he could comfort the concubine's longing for her son.
Fortunately, although this concubine was lively, she was not annoying. As time went by, Mo Yu became much more indifferent to her intimate overtures, and even Jia Min and Xiao Daiyu turned a blind eye to it.
Since you're here, let's go together. How can you refuse? Anyway, as long as people are not annoying, it will be more lively with more people...
Let's say that Mo Yu and his group accompanied Master Kang to the Gaojiayan River embankment. Although there were many people, no one dared to make a noise. The protagonist was still Master Kang.
After Master Kang got on the river embankment, he was very excited. After pointing out the situation and discussing the east and the west, he still put forward various work requirements to everyone. In particular, he scolded the then river governor Zhang Daren about the reinforcement of the river embankment. He was really impressive and arrogant.
Everything seemed to be the case, but Mo Yu still couldn't help but want to complain, because even though he was an outsider in water conservancy projects, he could see that Master Kang didn't understand water conservancy at all and was just giving orders blindly.
How can you inspect a dam and only say "reinforce it"? Besides, water control cannot be done by just blocking it, dredging is also required, right?
And with the productivity level of this dynasty, are you sure you can really reinforce it?
Is there anyone? Is there money?
Is there? Is there?
You just talk nonsense and make demands, don't be so bullying!
The governor of the river, Lord Zhang, obviously meant this in his words, but unfortunately Master Kang didn't do it.
The two men soon came to a stalemate. They were both old men in their fifties or sixties, and each was more stubborn than the other. They argued so hard that Mo Yu was bored watching from the side.
As soon as he got bored, he suddenly remembered something.
Speaking of which, it seemed that he hadn't yet mastered the technology that every time traveler had to master.
Glass, soap, and cement.
He didn't need the first two and was too lazy to get them, but the last one was a killer.
Not only could it be used by civilians, but it could also be used by the military. And wasn't this a very good opportunity?
What was the point of building a dam without cement?
It wouldn't take forever to build it with stone slabs and stones alone, and the key was that it would take a lot of manpower and money. He should just increase productivity and give it a try.
Cement was a must.
Although he must have forgotten the formula, System 006 must know it.
Why not ask and try?
Thinking of this, Mo Yu immediately summoned the system:
[By the way, 006, do you have the formula for cement? Lord Zhang said that it was too expensive and labor-intensive to use stones to reinforce the dam, so why not let them try cement? Isn't it saving money and effort? 】
【Author's words】
I adjusted the plot structure of the previous chapter, and accidentally revised it too much, so I still added details and put another chapter.
It seems that everyone doesn't like cement (? Smile), so let's speed up and skip this part immediately, and come to update a fat chapter early tonight, and I must write about going to Beijing! Fist.
