I don't want to be a saint

Chapter 188 Points to the Maimang!
Ye Huaiwu stared fixedly at the four people walking towards him, the more he looked at them, the more familiar they looked.

Well!It's really Mr. Pei!

Shouldn't he be in Tokyo, thousands of miles away?
This is Jinghu North Road in the south of the Yangtze River!Why is he here?
Then, as if suddenly remembering something, he raised his eyebrows.

"Inspector!"

"Inspector?"

After the two spoke in unison, they looked at each other, and they both saw each other's surprise.

There was a severe drought on Jingbei Road, and the appeasement envoy had reported it to the court a long time ago.And the imperial court has already dispatched inspectors.

However, the inspector of Jinghu North Road has never shown up, and who is it?
I don't even know when he came?

And now, I actually met him in this old river in Nanping Town.

This is really where life does not meet!

In other words, you Pei Xidao can hide from the first day of junior high school, but not the fifteenth day!

And just when the two of them were in a daze, the four people who were oncoming had already come close.

Pei Xidao also stopped involuntarily, looking at the man in front of him in ragged clothes and stiff hair, he couldn't help but look familiar.

It seems to have seen it somewhere, it seems to be an old friend.

"Hahaha! Mr. Pei is indeed a nobleman who forgets so much! Hearing that the old man left, he forgot the old man's face!
Tea is cold when people walk, tea is cold when people walk!The ancients do not deceive me!How pathetic!What a pity! "Murong Huaiwu doesn't say a word, always feels uncomfortable.

"Ye Shengshen?"

Hearing this, Pei Xidao couldn't help but take two steps forward again, and looked at him carefully.

So, what people call Old Man Ye?
Is this the guy?

"Haha...! Ye Shengshen! You really are an old boy! Hahahaha...! Your stinky mouth really hasn't changed at all!" Pei Xidao raised her head and laughed happily, and stretched out her hand to give him two false nods.

After finishing speaking, he walked around him twice with curiosity on his face, and couldn't help mocking: "Tsk tsk tsk! Why are you in such a mess? Ah? You look like a beggar! It shouldn't be, it shouldn't be I haven't seen you in a few years, and you've fallen so badly!"

And Murong Huaiwu was not afraid of him at all, he just stood there and let him look at him, also sarcastically said: "There is a severe drought on Jingbei Road, the imperial court has sent inspectors long ago, and your Excellency has been hiding his head and refusing to show his face!

It's the behavior of a villain!Not at all the demeanor of a magnanimous gentleman!As the saying goes, a villain in Gulu grows up, and a gentleman is magnanimous! "

"You stinky mouth!" Pei Xidao was not angry at all when he was scolded secretly, but laughed even wider: "You really don't accept people at all!"

The two were talking to themselves, but the subordinate who came together to scour the idiot almost peed his pants.

The person who can chat and laugh happily with Ye Huaiwu is naturally not someone who is easy to talk to.

Fortunately, I was so stupid that I wanted to treat others as a fool, but now it seems that I am the fool!
Thinking of this, while the two were chatting and laughing happily, they rolled down the side ditch.Then, in the ditch, he leaned forward and backed away.

Murong Huaiwu scolded him a few words, feeling much more comfortable in his heart, so he stretched out his hand to invite him, intending to entertain him in the thatched shed.

Then he asked as he walked, "Where did Mr. Pei come from?"

"By land, Jinghu North Road, which enters from Jingxinan Road, passes through Zhangjia Town, goes south to Hanshui River, then extends Hanshui River to the west, then turns to the southwest, and then follows Bashui River to Nanping."

It's a big circle.

Just don't go to Jiangling City.

As Pei Xidao spoke, he looked around the busy old river curiously, and asked impatiently, "Old man Ye, it's the busy season for farming, but why are you recruiting laborers to dig the river here?"

"Jinghu North Road is severely drought!"

Uh... Pei Xidao couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the words, a little puzzled.I asked you why you dug river ditches, but you said that there was a severe drought on Jinghu North Road?

Then I suddenly realized that, yes, there was a severe drought on the Jinghu North Road!
The new drilling method, the endless group of bobbins, and the tall gantry on the bank of the estuary.And the dry river, the dry lake.

All are talking.

It's a drought here!
It's only strange that I didn't see the scene of starvation and death all over the field, but the water for people and livestock; I didn't see the dry fields and scorched crops, but only the rolls of a bumper harvest!
Therefore, I almost forgot that there was a severe drought here.

Pei Xidao thought for a while, nodded clearly, and then asked again: "Then you mean that digging this ditch is also a drought-resistant strategy for you to appease the envoy?"

Digging ditches to transfer water from Bashui to solve the drought in water-scarce areas is not some inscrutable strategy, but a common way of thinking.

"There was a severe drought in the east of Nanping Town. Ten rooms and ten rooms were empty. The people were displaced and begged along the street for a living. The king of Chu couldn't bear it, so he emptied the treasury of Jiangling to fight the drought and relieve the disaster.

Digging old river channels to divert water is just one of them.And it also has the functions of flood discharge and transportation, which can kill three birds with one stone! "

The King of Chu emptied the treasury of Jiangling and vigorously created anti-drought measures, which caused He Tong to be impeached by the high-ranking bullets every three days.

By now, everyone knows about it.

However, judging from the current situation, King Chu's strategy is undoubtedly successful!
Most of Jinghu North Road survived the drought unharmed.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help sighing: "Everyone in the world has underestimated His Royal Highness King Chu!"

When Ye Huaiwu heard this, he couldn't help smiling and looking at Guo Yi, winking at him.

Pei Xianggong is pointing at the bald man to praise the monk, is he suitable?

Guo Yi ignored him, remained silent, and lowered his sense of existence.

"Pei Xianggong came to Jinghu North Road a long time ago, but he never entered Jiangling Mansion. Your temper has not changed!" Ye Huaiwu once again counterattacked secretly.

"Hey!" Pei Xidao mocked mercilessly: "Jiangling City? What's so interesting in Jiangling City? A group of scholars who don't know the so-called! It's a drought, and they are still there ignorant and fearless!

If you are a scholar like this, don't worry about it!It's just a bunch of moths of the country! "

I don't want to open it either, but I'm really short of money, so I have to do whatever I can, and I can take the opportunity to make some money!
In this way, these literati students can be regarded as adding bricks and tiles to the construction of Jinghu North Road in a disguised form.

It's just that they don't know.

You're welcome, just call me **.

When Ye Huaiwu looked over, Guo Yi twitched the corner of his mouth with a smile.

After Pei Xidao finished speaking, he sighed again: "Everyone in the world has underestimated His Highness the King of Chu. You don't know, when I first arrived on Jingbei Road, I was already ready to starve to death, but who knows,"

"Not only is there no starvation everywhere, but it is a scene of living and working in peace and contentment!" Ye Huaiwu continued.

"Yes!" Pei Xidao nodded and echoed: "The new method of drilling wells, the technique of looking at mountains and waters, and a group of bobbins standing like a forest.

You don't know, when I saw it for the first time, my heart was agitated and I was so shocked! "
