Destiny Only Han

Chapter 249 Liu Ying: Karma!
On the south bank of the Wei River, the site of Xingle Palace.

In the cool autumn wind, Liu Ying is leading a team here to do surveying and mapping.

As a civil engineer, he knows how much a reliable construction drawing is helpful to the progress of the project.

And it is no exaggeration to say that this place will be his future home.

Therefore, it is better not to completely outsource the design of your own home to others when you can.

Well, but the more important reason is to skip school...

After all, he only needs to live in Guanzhong for another ten days or so, and he is about to go to Hebei to join Han Xin.

After the autumn grain is put into the warehouse and the wheat is planted for a season, the strong and strong of Zhao will be recruited to go south to destroy Qi.

With the widespread use of composting and the lack of lodging-resistant seeds for dense planting during this period, even if two crops are harvested a year, the consumption of soil power is not too serious.

Continuous cropping of wheat and beans, coupled with livestock and human manure, no matter how barren the land is, one mu of land can still produce one or two hundred catties of grain.

This output will cause famine in later generations when the population exceeds 2000 million, but in the era when the population is only [-] to [-] million, although the yield per mu is low, the per capita grain possession is not low.

What Liu Ying wants to do is to explode the population first, and then direct the population to large and small workshops located in various places, and then use the boosted productivity to complete the development of Jiangnan and Lingnan, as well as overseas colonization.

Especially in the estuary delta in Nichinan County, the soil is fertile and the sun is sufficient, which is especially suitable for farming.

If the grain produced there is continuously transported back, the three-field system can be implemented in the country, which can not only cultivate soil fertility, but also develop more profitable animal husbandry.

In Liu Ying's plan, he plans to use three to five five-year plans to transform the people of Dahan from having enough to eat to eating well.

So focusing on the present, one of the things he did was to teach a group of engineers in the future Shaofu how to complete the map surveying and mapping.

On the map of the Qin Dynasty, although the distance from point to point and the contour line of the mountain range are marked, such a map is only for reference due to the limitations of tools and practical operations.

Especially when the army is marching, it is more dependent on the guidance of the locals and on-the-spot investigation by dispatching outings.

As for large-scale projects such as the construction of water canals and roads, especially water canals, the ability to pass water often depends on luck...

After all, when Liu Ying read the book "History of Water Conservancy in China", she saw that the most frequent occurrences in it were 'water is blocked' and 'impossible'...

Therefore, in order to avoid wasting people and money, accurate surveying and mapping in the early stage is still necessary.

And now in front of Liu Ying is a vernier theodolite that he asked someone to reproduce early in the morning.

It is a wooden tripod with a base with four fine adjustment knobs, and then a vertical leveling level with a liquid floating compass and compass on the base.

Further up, there is a body made of bronze, which is divided into a main ruler and a horizontal angle plate with a subsidiary ruler.

The main ruler is the base, and the upwardly rotatable part has a vertically rotating angle plate and a telescope with positioning filaments.

These are not difficult points, the difficulty is the determination of weights and measures.

During the Qin and Han Dynasties, millet was used as a standard for weights and measures. To be precise, it was millet from Yangtoushan in Shangdang County.

One hundred millet grains of uniform size are lined up end to end, exactly the length of one chi during this period, which is 23.2 centimeters.

This data, even if it is measured by later generations, is also not much different!

However, Liu Ying decided to abandon the existing weights and measures and use the data commonly used in later generations.

Therefore, after repeated measurements and taking the average value, divide one foot into 232 parts, determine millimeters, and then determine centimeters, decimeters and meters.

After all, decimal conversion is relatively easier.

Before the Qin State unified the world, countries adopted different weights and measures in order to protect their own interests, but after the Qin Dynasty's destruction, unifying weights and measures became particularly important.

During this period, in September every year, officials from all over the country will conduct year-end summaries and report various local data to the central government.

This is called "shangji", and the officials who set off to report to the central government are called "shangji officials".

In a unified country, it is natural that there can be no such things as rulers and rulers.

Xiao He was busy during this period, mainly casting the new weights and measures and the conversion formulas with the old weights and measures into iron pieces, so that the top planners from all over the country could bring them back and promote them in various places.

A new government and a new atmosphere, determination of weights and measures, and determination of new laws and regulations are all things that must be done.

In fact, what Liu Ying most wants to change is the current cheating calendar.

It's not that using October as the beginning of the year is not good, but that the existing Zhuanxu calendar is not accurate enough...

Well, on August [-]th, there is a crescent moon in the sky, let's find out!

He doesn't know how to measure the moon phase calendar, but he still knows how to measure the Gregorian calendar commonly used in later generations.

After all, as long as the two days of the shortest and longest days of the sun are stuck every year, the winter solstice and summer solstice can be determined, and then use these as coordinates, three or six days in leap years, reincarnation every four years, and the perpetual calendar is ready.

But the problem is that it is very simple to determine the calendar, but the difficulty lies in the purpose of promulgating calendars in the past dynasties, which is to persuade farmers and mulberry farmers.

To put it simply, it is to write on the calendar when it is suitable to sow and when to harvest.

The 24 solar term songs are probably used for this purpose.

However, there is still the same problem. The temperature at this time is higher than that of later generations, and the order of many seasons is actually reversed.

In "Han Shu Lu Li Zhi", there are 24 solar terms and the corresponding star degrees are listed, saying: Daliang, the first stomach is seven degrees, and the rain is grain.Today is Qingming.Mid-Pleiades Octave, Qingming.Today is Grain Rain, which is March in Xia, April in Shang, and May in Zhou.Finally finished eleven degrees.

In this way, using the wrong solar term songs to guide agricultural production that needs to be stuck in the farming season is definitely a disaster for the country and the people.

However, Liu Ying also has a strategy for this matter, which is the famous saying of "Guangming Daily" in later generations.

Practice is the only criterion for testing truth.

He will determine the calendar, and as for the rest of the work such as guiding the farming time, he will find old farmers who are good at farming to complete.

For example, Taigong Liu who is idle and flustered, as a farm boy who likes sensuality, although he has a bad relationship with many old antiques in the school, he is very popular with the new school.

As long as he is given enough funds, I believe it will not be long before he can get several crop planting guides suitable for different regions.

Well, in fact, it is called the emerging faction, and most of those people are in their fifties.

Compared with the declining Mohists, the farmers who pay attention to doing everything by themselves, abandon too many desires, and live in poverty have long been out of favor.

So during this period of time, after Liu Taigong saw that Liu Ying was not there, and Liu Fei did not inherit his ideas, the old man's gaze focused on Liu Ruyi, who was still in the ignorant stage...

As a result, the little guy often returned to the room very late in the dirt. Although Qi Ji didn't say anything, she didn't know how many times she rolled the eyes of Old Liu...

Next to the ruins of Xingle Palace, after Liu Ying gave Yang Chengyan and others a table of trigonometric functions, she began to think about it on her own.

As far as the eye can see, there are ruins.

The fire that soared to the sky in the past has been extinguished, and the billowing smoke has also dissipated. As for the scattered bones, they have also been collected and buried by Hao Sheng.

Today, on this land, only the sorrow and dilapidation of the ruins are left, and the ruined walls that have gone through vicissitudes of life tell the past.

However, with the passage of time, after the surveying and mapping are completed, the conscripted construction team will enter the site to clean up the unusable waste, and then usher in the rebirth of this palace city.

The deceased will not die, they will surely rise again, and the momentum will be even stronger.

The name Changle Palace, together with the Weiyang Palace next door, will forever be included in the unbroken historical materials of a nation that lasted thousands of years!

With Han Tan behind him and several sword-wielding warriors following suit, Liu Ying slowly walked out from the rubble.

As expected of Xiao He, the place he chose was actually very easy to rebuild.

Although the Xianyang fire has spread here, after all, it has been a short time since now. Although the wooden buildings on the upper floors have been completely destroyed, the most time-consuming and labor-intensive things, such as the foundations, are still intact.

You only need to go to the Qinling Mountains to cut down large trees to be used as beams and pillars, and then lay bricks and tiles on the floor, and the palace can be moved in quickly.

No wonder the history books say that from the fifth year of the Han Dynasty to February of the seventh year of the Han Dynasty, the Changle Palace was completed.

Such a magnificent project was completed in such a short period of time. In fact, people have always criticized Liu Bang.

Well, although the amount of work is indeed not small, it is only renovation after all, not construction.

The former only needs to send money, while the latter requires much more manpower.

After all, the foundation of the platform is made of rammed earth. Not only is the production of earth materials time-consuming and laborious, it is said that it takes 10 people to work hard for several years to build such a large-scale palace city by ramming the soil at once.

As for the point of making money, Lu Zhi, who sells tea in various places in Guanzhong and is about to receive dividends from Hedong Yanchi, made it clear before Liu Ying came.

If the money is not enough, just ask her for it!
Although Lu's pheasant entered Guanzhong a little later and had never seen the prosperity and magnificence of Xianyang City in the past, just walking through the ruins was enough to make her dissatisfied with the small and small Yueyang Palace.

Moving to a new house has become the thing that Lu Zhi misses the most these days.

Naturally, Liu Ying would not be polite to her. After a few nights of exasperation, a copy of Changle Palace Renovation 2.0 was born.

In this construction drawing, not only the future tap water system is reserved, but also enough space is left for future power supply.

The Bashui flows into the Weishui, and it would be a waste not to build a few hydroelectric power stations in a place with such a large height difference!
In this regard, Liu Ying did not hold back when talking about her mother's leeks...

Of course, at this stage, thermal power is still simpler.

But those who do not seek the overall situation are not enough to seek a domain.

As the capital, it is natural to relocate high-energy-consuming and high-pollution projects...
