  Chapter 774 774. Build Li Family Village

  Finally, Chu Mingyuan hesitated for a while, and chose to work. It was really uncomfortable to be isolated by the whole village.

  After one and a half months of construction, the road was repaired to the location of Lijiahe.

  When Li Qingyu returns to her natal home, she will pass a river, which is the Lijia River.

  Originally there was a bridge on the Lijia River, but a flood a few years ago washed away the bridge. Later, the government ignored the matter, and the bridge has not been repaired until now.

  People from several villages gathered on the bank of the river...

   "Brother Li, how about we go talk to Miss Qingzhi and ask her to help us build the bridge?"

   "Building a bridge is a big project, will she be willing?"

   "I don't know if I want to, but this is an opportunity, and it's rare, let's try it?"

   "It's fine, if she is willing to advocate for us, then the whole village will help repair the bridge, and she won't be asked to pay us."

   "I plan to do the same, let's go and try."

   "Let's go."

  The village chiefs of several villages discussed carefully, and then walked towards Chujia Village together.

  The road on Chu Qingzhi's fief is basically completed, and now the official roads near Shuiyun County and outside the fief are being built. Recently, she frequently goes out to make inspections.

  Chu Qingzhi was walking on the road, thinking about how to repair the road on the Lijia River side, if not, Tongzi County and Shuiyun County are always separated by a river, it is very inconvenient to travel, especially when transporting goods,

   If you want to take a detour, the river is so long and the cost is too high. The best way is to build a bridge over the river.

   After a while, do a good survey, and if the bridge can be repaired, build the bridge.

  Thinking like this, she ran into several village chiefs head-on.

  The village chiefs did not expect to meet Chu Qingzhi on the way, and when they saw her, they surrounded her enthusiastically.

  The village chief of Lijia Village said, "Girl, we are the village chiefs of the surrounding villages, and I want to discuss something with you."

  Chu Qingzhi nodded, "Please tell me."

Village head Li thought for a while and said bluntly, "Girl, we hope you can build a bridge on the Lijia River. Our village is poor and we don't have much money, but there are many men. We are willing to pay no wages. I just ask you to help us build a bridge." .”

   This coincides with Chu Qingzhi's thinking, "I need to see if the bridge can be built. I'm planning to go to Lijiahe now. Why don't the village chiefs go and see it with me?"

  Several village chiefs quickly agreed, "Okay, okay, I will listen to the girl." This was a surprise.

   A group of people hurried to Lijiahe.

  Chu Qingzhi went to the river to watch. The Lijia River was about eight or nine meters wide, the river flowed slowly, and the surrounding soil was relatively thick, not sandy, so it was not a big problem to build the bridge.

  The road was being built not far away, when Chu Rong saw Chu Qingzhi, he hurried over, "Qingzhi."

  Chu Qingzhi turned her head, "Father."

  Chu Rong asked concerned, "What are you doing here?"

  Chu Qingzhi said, "I'll see if a bridge can be built here, and if it can be built, it will be built."

   "It's good to build a bridge." Chu Rong was very happy, pointed to the upstream direction, and said, "There is a narrower river over there. If you want to build a bridge, you can build it there."

  Chu Qingzhi nodded, "I'll go and have a look right away."

  Chu Qingzhi went upstream to build a bridge. Of course, the narrower the river, the easier it is to build, and it saves materials.

  Walking upstream for a distance of about ten meters, Chu Qingzhi saw a narrower river channel, about five or six meters, compared with the eight or nine meters just now, the difficulty has been reduced a lot.

  At this time, an old man came over, he looked at Chu Qingzhi earnestly, and asked, "Are you Miss Chu Qingzhi?"

  Chu Qingzhi didn't know, so, "I am, is there something wrong, old man?"

  The old man made a big gift to Chu Qingzhi, "I'm giving this gift to thank the **** behalf of the people of this side. The girl understands the righteousness and really does practical things for the people. It's so rare, so rare!"

  Chu Qingzhi gently turned her body sideways, without accepting the ceremony, "Old man, my meager strength is not enough."

The old man waved his hand and said in admiration, "Every time it rains, if it rains for several days in a row, the road will be like a field, full of mud. Now that there is a bluestone road, even if it rains for a month, you won't be afraid." Now, what the girl has done can set an example for everyone in Daling."

  Chu Qingzhi smiled humbly, "The old man praised you."

  The old man solemnly said, "I have lived most of my life, and I have never praised the wrong person. You deserve the praise, and only you can afford it."

  Chu Qingzhi smiled, "Thank you, old man."

  The old man's eyes became earnest, "Girl, besides thanking you for the people today, I also want to tell you one thing."

  Chu Qingzhi nodded, "Please tell me, old man."

The old man said with some memories and regrets, "I am a bridge worker. The bridge that was washed down in Lijia Village was built by me and others. Since the bridge was washed away, I have always wanted to rebuild it, but relying on me It is really impossible to achieve it by one person, girl, will you arrange to build a bridge? If it is a bridge, I am willing to do my best."

  Chu Qingzhi naturally agreed to him, "I have this plan, and I took a look. In the vicinity, the narrowest part of the Lijia River is here."

  The old man has a lot of experience in building bridges. "The Lijia Bridge was built here, but this time, the bridge hole needs to be enlarged to prevent it from being washed away again when the flood comes."

  Chu Qingzhi asked someone to fetch the pen and paper, spread it out on a stone, and discussed the design with the old man.

After some conversation, the old man admired Chu Qingzhi so much. Not only did he know a lot, but even if he didn't know it, he could draw inferences after knowing it. This knowledge is simply more profound than anyone he has ever met. .

  During the time the two were talking, a few more bridge workers who volunteered to help repair the bridge came.

  Chu Qingzhi brainstormed and finally decided to build a five-arch stone bridge, two large arches, three small arches, and many other small details for flood prevention, so that even if there is a flood, there is no need to worry.

  Chu Qingzhi said, "Let's see if there are any problems. If there are no problems, we will build according to this."

  The old man said, "It's perfect, there is no need to change it."

   "We agree too."

  Chu Qingzhi said, "Alright then, I'll go and arrange the manpower and prepare the materials right away, and we'll start working after all the preparations are complete."

  The news of the reconstruction of Lijiaqiao spread quickly, and many people around came to help.

  Everyone has wanted to build the bridge for a long time, and now that this wish can be realized, they all want to do their part to build the bridge as soon as possible.

  Under the arrangement of Chu Qingzhi, who is super mobile, the construction of Lijiaqiao started soon.

  On the day when the construction started, all the surrounding villages came to watch. It can be said that there were huge crowds of people, as if a big project was going to be built.

  Chu Qingzhi's good name spread farther, and the incense in the Sheng Temple became more vigorous.
