I don't want to be a saint

Chapter 224 Ofune Valley

The king of Chu left in a hurry.

Guo Yi picked up the bamboo charcoal pen again and began to draw the blueprint in detail.

First compare the landscape map and calculate the approximate ratio.Then calculate the actual size roughly according to the proportion number.

Then, with Gangneung City as the origin, draw the horizontal and vertical axes.After folding a piece of paper in half several times, use it as a ruler, and mark the longitude and latitude lines on the drawing according to the horizontal and vertical axes.

Finally, according to these longitudes and latitudes, the approximate distances between these ponds and lakes are calculated and marked.

His actions made people dazzled.Still can't figure it out.

But Xianggong Pei was very realistic, and asked if he didn't understand, "Erlang, what do you mean?"

"Longitude and latitude!"

After finishing speaking, I explained the functions of longitude and latitude in detail.

Well!It turned out to be like this.

The look of admiration on Pei Xidao's face is worthy of Guo Erlang, who can always make people refresh and get to know each other again.

"In this way, there are many advantages. First, it can prevent getting lost in the big swamp. Second, it can completely excavate according to the shortest distance.

However, it is very difficult to implement it.First, with the northeast corner of Jiangling City as the origin, two straight lines, the horizontal axis and the vertical axis, must be determined and marked.

This method can only be used if the two straight lines are determined and each node of the latitude and longitude is marked. "

When Pei Xidao heard the words, he couldn't help but think carefully, and then nodded and agreed: "That's true. The two benchmarks, the horizontal axis and the vertical axis, cannot be determined, and everything else is empty talk."

After finishing speaking, he smiled and comforted: "Even if it can't be used this time, the old man will keep it in mind and promote it for Erlang."

"Haha, what Mr. Pei said is exactly what I want." He wanted to do his best to leave a good impression on Pei Xidao so that the future can proceed.

Pei Ruyu, who had been silent all this time, took the initiative to ask, "Erlang, is there anything I can help you with?"

This time, not only Guo Yi, but even Pei Xidao, the old father, were inexplicably different.

My eldest son, a lazy dandy, actually asked for help on his own initiative?

It's more than rare!

It is simply too rare!

He almost burst into tears. There is a saying that if the prodigal son turns back, he will not be exchanged for gold!

Didn't this tired bastard get enlightened this time?

"Yes!" Guo Yi quickly came back to his senses, pointing to the blueprint on the table: "Brother Pei, please write dozens of complete copies of this blueprint.

I will go to the government office to gather those subordinate officials, and as a vanguard officer, I will go to Daze with the blueprint to familiarize myself with the road. "

"Okay!" Pei Ruyu nodded solemnly: "Erlang, let's go, I'm here to write these blueprints!"

When Guo Yi rushed to the government office, he once again saw the efficiency of His Royal Highness Chu Wang.

At noon that day, notices had already been posted all over the streets and alleys of Jiangling City.And in the evening, the surrounding villages, towns and counties also received notices.

After the notice was posted, in just two days, [-] soldiers were recruited.

After all, the wages of two hundred yuan a day are too tempting.Even though it is the busy season of farming, every household still reluctantly allocates one or two strong laborers.

This is also one of the reasons why the king of Chu paid high wages.He was too soft-hearted to resort to the method of forcible conscripting.

It's nothing more than losing some money.But with Guo Erlang in hand, are you still afraid of lack of money in the future?
Because there are dozens of large and small ponds in that vast swamp.

Ever since, the one hundred thousand battles were also divided into dozens of large and small teams.Each team will be responsible for a section.Excavate according to the segmentation method.

As for the problem of cannibalism in the swamp, it is easy to solve.As long as a few bamboos are laid on it, people will not sink in if they step on the bamboo.

In the past two days, several people have been discussing until midnight to find solutions to various problems.

And until the early morning of the third day, the water level of the river did not drop, fluctuating between the fifth scale and the sixth scale.

As for the water level of the Dongjing River, because the old channel of Hanshuikou has been opened, it has dropped significantly.

This is one of the few pieces of good news.The first good news is that the rain that lasted for several days finally stopped at dawn.

Early in the morning, the Pei family father and son were not willing to lag behind, and followed the crowd into Daze.

From the tube cart workshop in the west of the city, I cleaned out all the bamboo tubes stored in it.Everyone carries one.

Guo Yi, on the other hand, led people to number all the teams, and wrote them directly on his arms with a brush.

These numbers are all numbered according to the marks on the drawings.After the number was compiled, they began to carry the shovel and bamboo pole one by one into Daze.

During the afternoon of the day before yesterday and the day yesterday, he took dozens of subordinates to Daze to familiarize themselves with the roads.

Fortunately, Mr. Cheng contacted dozens of farmers who raised ducks in Daze and acted as their guides.

Everyone was walking hard on the tidal flat, and the old chief Cheng was walking beside him, and asked with a worried face: "Erlang, is it really possible to release the flood into this big lake?"

He knew that this matter was a foregone conclusion and could not be changed.but…

"Don't worry, Boss Cheng. I know what you're thinking. It's nothing more than fear of washing away the duck!"

"That's right! There are hundreds of households raising ducks for their livelihood in this big swamp. Once the water level rises and submerges the tidal flats and islands, what should we do?"

When Guo Yi heard this, he couldn't help shaking his head with a smile: "You can't just look in front of your eyes. Connecting these ponds and lakes is a temporary solution, and there will be other strategies in the future."

After speaking, he looked around, pointed to the east, and asked mysteriously, "Do you know the canyon to the east?"

Canyon to the east?
Old Chief Cheng couldn't help being taken aback for a moment, then nodded repeatedly and said, "I know! You mean Big Boat Valley, right?"

The Valley of the Big Boat got its name because it looks like a big ship.The bow is in the northwest and the stern is in the southeast.

It is about 25 kilometers long, 6000 meters wide at its widest point, and 20 meters deep at its deepest point.But because it is a valley of rocks, the surface lacks soil, so there is no lush vegetation, all are bare rocks.

And that big boat valley is not far from Daze.Only less than twenty miles away.

Old Chief Cheng didn't know what he meant, so he asked as he walked, "What does Erlang mean?"

"I plan to build a ditch to connect the Dachuan Valley and discharge the flood into the Dachuan Valley! Taking advantage of the rising water, first dig a shallow ditch, and then slowly wash it with water.

And this time the water rose, because there was Daze as a buffer, the water flow was not rushing, so it was very suitable.Don't worry that the river is too fast, so you can break through the shallow canal and go elsewhere. "

Old Chief Cheng didn't understand the deep meaning of it, but Mr. Pei behind him understood it as soon as he heard it.

With Ofunaya as a support, it can accommodate more overflowing flood waters.And the Dachuan Valley is a barren valley with no homes or fields, so even if it is used to hold water, there is no need to feel distressed.

Well!This plan is very clever!
