Gu Qi, she just wants to farm

Chapter 347
"In the north of Wangjia Village, there is a Si River, which is wide and wide, and then connected to the Datong River that runs through the entire Yuzhou Prefecture.

If we can divert the river water from Xiahetang into Sihe, not only can we solve the flood problems in Shanghetang Village and Xiahetang Village, but also keep the north of Lushan County safe and sound. "

The Datong River not only runs through the entire Yuzhou Prefecture, Datong Hebei to Chongzhou and Qingzhou Prefectures; it connects Jiangzhou Prefecture and Jingzhou Prefecture to the south. This river almost spans the entire hinterland of the Dakang Central Plains.

Even if there is a serious flood in Yuzhong, if the flood can be diverted into the Datong River, given the terrain of Yuzhong, there will be no serious trouble.

Thinking of this, Liu Shouzheng's heart became hot: "My nephew, is there a way to connect other waters outside Lushan County to Tongsi River?"

Gu Qi shook his head: "The terrain of the river in other locations is either too high or too low, and it cannot be connected with the northbound fault of Wangjia Village in the short term, so we have to find another way."

Liu Shouzheng was a little disappointed, but he could also understand what Gu Qi said. The terrain in Yuzhong is flat, mostly plains, but there are also mountains across, intersecting high and low, intercepting several areas.

Coincidentally, there are a few small hillsides outside Lushan County, the mountains are not high, and because people come and go to the gaps, it is not difficult to walk, but because the terrain is criss-crossed, several rivers The rivers, reservoirs, and mountain streams are not far away, but they don't know each other.

"Then, according to my nephew, we will first solve the worries of the river pond for the current plan, and we will find a way to manage the other rivers in the future."

Liu Shouzheng was thinking about it, and was about to ask Gu Qi about the specific implementation method of dredging the river pond, but he saw that Gu Qi was just sipping tea with a smile on his face, but he didn't intend to talk about it in detail at all.

Obviously everything we talked about before was good, why did it stop at the critical moment?

It was not luck that Liu Shouzheng was able to get to where he is today. Although he has been suffering from floods for the past few days, and because of the change in the rhythm of the conversation between the two just now, Liu Shouzheng's originally planned rhythm was destroyed, and he fell into a passive state for a while. situation.

However, after only a moment, Liu Shouzheng returned to his original posture, stared at Gu Qi with deep eyes for a long time, and said, "Is there any problem with my nephew?"

This is the intention to give in.

Gu Qi put down the tea slowly, and said: "This time Xiao Ke brought the people around him to Yuzhong, one is to find someone, and the other is to find another way out for the family business.

The original plan was to stay in Yuzhong for a few days, but seeing that the adults love the people like children, and they manage the inside and outside of Lushan County without closing the doors, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, Xiao Ke moved his mind to do some business in Lushan County. "

Do not close the account at night?Live and work in peace? !

The corners of Liu Shouzheng's mouth twitched when he heard this.

In Lushan County, the only people who can keep their doors open at night are poor families who have nothing, and those who don't even think about thieves.

As for living and working in peace and contentment, looking at the empty and closed shops and commercial buildings all over the streets, living in peace and contentment is barely considered, and working in peace and contentment is simply nonsense.

Of course, according to the current situation, even if Liu Shouzheng knew that this kid was talking nonsense, he would not pick faults on such insignificant words.

After all, it's easy to pick faults, pick people away, and whoever pays the people will pay the money and the food.

Gu Qi ignored Liu Shouzheng's tangled facial expression, and continued: "However, Xiaoke came out in a hurry this time. The Qi family's merchants are not as capable as the Jianghu brothers of the Pedestrian Gang, and they brought the amount of money and rice from Lushan County. are limited."

Sure enough, here comes the point!
Liu Shouzheng's heart tightened, but his expression was as calm as usual, and he nodded for Gu Qi to continue talking.

"I don't want to hide it from my lord, the money that Xiao Ke brought earlier was used to buy some shops in Lushan County, and a few acres of fertile farmland outside the city, and there is not much left.

The commercial market in the city has just opened, although it has made some money, it is only enough for the expenses of a group of brothers under him. "

Liu Shouzheng listened to the blue veins on his forehead twitching. Considering the prices of the things you sell in the mall, you still call it just a small profit, which is only enough for the expenses of your subordinates?

What else is a few acres of fertile land?
Do you really think I know nothing about the thousands of acres of land that your subordinates bought outside Luoshan Village?

Even the members of the Liuxing Street Pedestrian Gang couldn't say such cheeky words.
-
"My lord may not know that although Xiao Ke has some useful people, as long as the business is done, most of them can't leave. How can I pick out for my lord to use? There are only the fifty bodyguards mentioned above.

My lord just said that these 50 people should go with my lord Zhi to repair the collapsed sections of the river. I don't think there will be any other time for three or five days. I am afraid that the project of repairing and digging the canals in the river pond will have to follow. delay. "

Liu Shouzheng paused in his heart, and said anxiously: "Didn't your nephew say earlier that the canal on your village was dug with the help of farm laborers on your village? Then the canal that goes down to the river pond can also be asked to go for a while. trip."

Gu Qi showed a look of embarrassment: "My lord, those farm laborers Xiao Ke didn't give them wages, but only allowed them to eat three times a day, which made these people willing to help Xiao Ke dig the canal outside the village."

This situation can be taken care of by eating three meals a day, which is much more attractive than Xu Shilaiwen's salary.

Liu Shouzheng became more and more puzzled, and said: "This is very good. If there is an urgent need for food and supplies, why worry about them not going to Xiahetang to start work?"

Gu Qi chuckled and shook his head: "These farm laborers will not leave Luoshan Village."

"Why is this?"

"The farm laborers were originally recruited to look after the fields in the village. The farm laborers were originally given two meals a day in exchange for taking care of the fields they were responsible for.

Later, because of the construction of the canal, another dinner was added. At this time, it was the time of spring planting, and the growth rate of the seedlings determined whether the farm laborers could receive rations every day before the autumn harvest.And if there is no accident, these farm laborers can also receive [-]% of the grain harvested on the responsible fields after the autumn harvest.

That's why the farm laborers now sincerely treat the fields in the village as their own, and they won't leave Luoshan Village easily if they have other important matters. "

Excuses, all excuses!

Liu Shouzheng suppressed his anger, and patiently persuaded: "Since these farm laborers have received the rations of my nephew, why not ask them to do more?
Although the matter of spring planting is important, if there is a real flood in Lushan County, the people in the entire Lushan County will be in dire straits, and there will be no eggs under the nest.At this time, we only strive for immediate interests, and wait until the building is about to fall irreparably, wouldn't the gains outweigh the losses?"

Liu Shouzheng's words were obviously talking about those farm laborers, but in fact he was pointing at Gu Qi, don't only care about immediate interests because of small losses, lest if you make a miscalculation, you will lose the whole game, and everyone will finish the game together.

Liu Shouzheng's words were not cryptic, so Gu Qi naturally understood.

Of course, this kind of thing has always been that whoever is in a hurry will give up the benefits.Even if it's a grasshopper on a rope, the one who can't hold back in advance and shows his cards to lower the bottom line of the negotiation must be the one who is afraid of death first.

Even after playing together, the way to die is different for the bold and the timid.
