Vol 2 Chapter 1404: Moving rivers and water, heavenly waterways! (Top) (thanks to Hans for...
Yujiazhuang.
After Yu Dejing said something, the people couldn't help being silent.
Li Zexuan, this name is currently a **** in Lantian County, no one disrespects, and even some people even set up a monument of longevity for Li Zexuan, praying for Li Zexuan every day, praying that Li Zexuan can live a hundred and a thousand years, so that they and Their children and grandchildren can also enjoy it!
Therefore, as soon as Yu Dejing moved out of Li Zexuan, the people no longer dared to be as noisy as before!
"Yu Xiucai, Master Hou is so kind to us, of course we believe in Master Hou! But even if Master Hou has great abilities, there is no way to move the water from Bahe River to our Yujiazhuang, right?"
At this time, a dealer couldn't help but say loudly.
He also expressed the aspirations of most people, so as soon as his words fell, countless people immediately echoed:
"Yeah! This is a celestial means of transporting water by river. Even if Master Hou is both civil and martial artist, and Wenquxing and Wuquxing descend to the earth, it is impossible to do this kind of thing! Maybe this notice, Master Hou did not know, or Hou Lord did not take into account the topography of our side!"
"Yes! We believe in Lord Hou, but it doesn't mean that we believe that someone can move the water from Bahe River to Yujiazhuang! Instead of wasting time to repair the canal, it is better to carry water from the well to irrigate the ground!"
Zhong Lizheng was a little helpless when he saw this. He couldn't help but cast his gaze on Yu Dejing. Although he didn't believe it in his heart, he still chose to trust Li Zexuan firmly, but he could not persuade others like him to believe that Li Zexuan could draw water over. !
He is just a farmer who depends on the sky for his food, and his eloquence is far inferior to a scholar like Yu Dejing!
Yu Dejing did not disappoint Zhong Lizheng either. At this time, he shouted: "Guys, please listen to Dejing again. What you just said is correct. This half-mountain cloud and water is indeed a magical method, but you forgot. Is Master Hou’s identity? Master Hou is a child of a fairy, he can go to the sky, do you know the fairy lamp before? And later Master Hou planted vegetables in winter, you should all know? These things, which What did you think was possible before?
But the result? All these impossible things were done by Lord Hou! Although I don't know what method Hou Ye will use to transport water to Yujiazhuang, I believe Hou Ye will be able to do it. Just imagine, if we don’t mobilize manpower to dredge the canals, and only rely on the water in the water-carrying wells to irrigate the land, how many acres of land can each of us save?
But what if we dig a canal and Lord Hou also brought the water over? Then the drought on all the land in our village can be alleviated! Besides, the county government asks everyone to help repair the canal, not only pays wages, but also reduces three months of corvee. Where can you find such good things?
Take a step back and say, if you still don't believe that Lord Hou can carry water to Yujiazhuang, you can only use one or two people to repair the canal, and the rest will continue to carry water and irrigate the ground! But in any case, Yujiazhuang's canal must be repaired this time! Because this time the county government provided cement to help us repair the canal, such a good opportunity must not be missed! "
Yu Lizheng also nodded at this time and said, "Yu Xiucai was right. This time the county mobilized all the people in the county to repair the canals, we people in Yujiazhuang must not fall down! After all, this cement is a rare thing, and the county government can Take it out to help us repair the canal, that is our good fortune, and behind it is the care of the Lord Hou, this kind of treatment, people in other counties can't dream of it, we have to know good and bad!
Therefore, every household must provide at least one or two young laborers to help repair and dredge the drains. This is a matter for the benefit of future generations, and every household must contribute! "
After the words were over, the dealers couldn't help but talk in private. After a while, everyone finally began to rush to agree:
"Just now Yu Xiucai was right. Master Hou is a child of gods, and there must be godly means to carry the water from Bahe to our Yujiazhuang! I Yu Dashan firmly believes in Master Hou! Our family is willing to send three people to help. Repair the canal!"
"My Yu Cheng is also willing to believe in Lord Hou! My family is willing to have four people!"
"My family is willing to have three people!"
Suddenly, the enthusiasm of the dealers to repair the cement ditches became soaring. They were eagerly looking for Zhong Lizheng to sign up!
Upon seeing this, Zhong Lizheng finally breathed a sigh of relief and began to greet the dealers to line up to register.
.............................
It was night, the Lantian county government office was brightly lit, and all the officials in charge of the county government worked overtime at the request of the county magistrate. During the day, Li Zexuan "came to ask crimes", but the county magistrate was scared enough, so he built a canal. He was even more energetic, and he didn't dare to neglect at all. Li Zexuan wanted to build it as soon as possible, so he directly decided to start construction the day after.
However, the construction of the county’s canals is so huge that it must work together in stages and start in multiple locations at the same time, so that the county’s canals can be dredged in the shortest time. The specific tasks assigned to each village are also All have to be arranged in advance. The chief official of the county government is making a plan overnight!
"Mengxian Cheng, tomorrow you will lead 20 government officials to visit the major villages separately to measure the length of the main canals of each village. Tomorrow night, we will calculate the amount of work and materials!"
In the Houya public house, the county magistrate He ordered with a serious face that there was no room for negotiation in his words.
If this were left in the past, Meng County Cheng would have thoughts in his heart, but today Li Zexuan went to the county government to talk to the county magistrate. The entire county government knew everything about it, and according to the government officer guarding the door, the conversation process was somewhat Unpleasant, this is worth thinking about!
The county government, Li Zexuan is a little dissatisfied with the county government's recent work.
Therefore, Mengxian Cheng responded without hesitation: "Yes! The county magistrate! The next official will take people out of the city tomorrow morning!"
"Ok!"
He county magistrate nodded his head and said to Sun Tautou: "Sun Tautou, you will help Meng County Cheng complete the measurement tomorrow, and order the servants below not to commit **** and skidding. In addition, the number of servants in the third class of our county government is too large. It’s too small, and it needs to be expanded. Master Hou said, Lantian County is not what it used to be. If you want to maintain public order in the city, the number of government officials in the third class must be at least 100 people!
Hu Dianshi and Sun catching the head, you have to recruit a group of officials with good character and good martial arts foundation as soon as possible. After passing the assessment, you can directly enter the job. This is also an important task for you in the near future, because Hou Ye is concerned about the current public security in Lantian County. The environment is very dissatisfied, especially the local ruffians in the city. The county government must send a heavy blow to rectify! "
Hu Dianshi and Sun Tautou were startled when they heard the words, and quickly said seriously: "Yes! County magistrate!"
At the same time, Sun Catou couldn't help but feel a little delighted, because as soon as the county government's bureaucracy expanded its enrollment, his power in the future would increase! After all, there are more "brothers" under him!
"In addition, Lord Hou also plans to establish a Department of Commerce to take charge of merchant disputes and taxation. At present, the county government will take charge of the affairs of the county government. You need to recruit a group of bookkeepers as soon as possible. Under your command, you can be dispatched at any time!"
He county magistrate looked at the other two people again and ordered.
Two other middle-aged men in the public house responded quickly: "Yes! County magistrate!"
Majesty He nodded and said to the people: "The most urgent thing right now is the construction of cement ditches. Lord Hou attaches great importance to this. Of course, this is also related to the livelihood of tens of thousands of people. You must work together as soon as possible. The canal is repaired!"
"Here!"
Everyone promised.
At this time, Cheng Mengxian couldn't help asking: "The county magistrate, the village in the north of Lantian County has a high terrain. How can we draw the water from the Bahe River through the ditches?"
As soon as this remark came out, everyone turned their attention to the county magistrate He. Obviously, everyone had this question in their hearts, but they didn't dare to ask.
The county magistrate He frowned and replied, "Master Hou has his own way, so we don't need to worry about it! Okay, let's go and work, and go back to rest when we are done!"
"Yes! County magistrate!"
………………………………
Early the next morning.
The county government's Mengxian Cheng brought more than 20 government officials and went straight out of the city. There are more than 50 Zhuangzi in Lantian County. Even if the twenty-odd people of them act separately, it is estimated that it will be evening when they are finished!
At the same time, the news that Lantian County’s county government will organize civil servants and repair ditches with cement has already spread to the counties around Chang’an City. Those people in other states and counties who are suffering from drought naturally have a problem with Lantian County. All kinds of envy, although the announcement of the construction of the canal was sent from the Lantian county government office, people with a discerning eye know that Li Zexuan must be behind this. For a while, hundreds of people prayed in their hearts for the village where they are one day. Can also become Li Zexuan's fief!
When the court heard the news, it was naturally impossible to remain indifferent. At the same time, the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Industry dispatched personnel to carry the funds from the court to various states and counties, urging the county offices to start dredging the canals!
Although it is not a cement ditch to be repaired, it can also alleviate the drought to a great extent with the waterwheel currently being developed by Li Zexuan!
At the same time, in the new workshop of Qiquge, here is a busy scene.
Since Li Zexuan handed over the drawing of the waterwheel to Fu Bo yesterday, after discussing with Mo Huai, Yan Shaoning and others, Fu Bo divided the task of manufacturing the waterwheel into many small pieces and assigned them to the various departments of the workshop. All the energies of the craftsmen in the workshop have been focused on making waterwheels!
The scale of today's workshops is no longer what it used to be. The number of craftsmen is more than ten times that of before. Thousands of people are doing the same thing at the same time. How terrifying the progress is!
At noon, a giant roulette measuring four to five feet high was already erected on the open space in the front yard of the workshop, which looked like a Ferris wheel!
But this is not the kind of Ferris wheel that is only for viewing and amusement, it is a giant waterwheel that can save people from fire and water!
The outer profile of the roulette is made of wood. The reason why steel is not used is mainly to reduce the weight. Then it can turn faster under the action of water!
Of course, the central part of the roulette is made of steel, and the transmission part uses a ball bearing and gear mechanism. There are many brackets scattered beside the giant roulette, and the craftsmen are busy putting them together.
Li Zexuan saw this scene as soon as he walked into the courtyard of the workshop.
He was always thinking about the progress of the waterwheel manufacturing. Although he knew in his heart that the waterwheel could not be completed in one or two days, he could not help but come over after lunch!
The craftsmen in the courtyard were all busy with their work, but no one noticed Li Zexuan coming.
Li Zexuan looked at the giant roulette standing in the courtyard and couldn't help but opened his mouth in shock, because the manufacturing progress of the waterwheel was far beyond his imagination!
"Hey! Master, are you here?"
As soon as Uncle Fu squatted on the ground to guide a carpenter, he just saw Li Zexuan after he got up, and he greeted him and said.
"Ok!"
Li Zexuan nodded, and suddenly noticed the exhaustion that could not be concealed on Fu Bo's face, so he quickly asked concerned: "Huh? Fu Bo, you stayed up again last night?"
"Haha! No problem! No problem! Master, don't worry, just sleep a few hours late! What may matter! The construction of this waterwheel is the top priority!"
Uncle Fu heard the deep concern in Li Zexuan's words, and couldn't help but warm his heart~www.ltnovel.com~ and waved his hand quickly.
Li Zexuan frowned and said: "Fu Bo, no matter how urgent this waterwheel is, it doesn't matter to your body. Go back and rest! Here I will help you stare!"
The college is conducting mid-term exams these two days, and the Lantian county government office has just been beaten. Li Zexuan has nothing to do for these two days, so he thought about staying in the workshop!
Fubo hurriedly shook his head and said: "Master! You are the master of a county, and you are busy with official duties. How can you stay in the workshop to waste time! Don't worry, your aging body is tough! You will naturally rest when you are sleepy!"
Having said this, he suddenly pointed to the giant roulette in the courtyard, and said: "Master, you are here just right. Look at the main roulette of the waterwheel. How are the craftsmen doing?"
Seeing Fubo's tough attitude, Li Zexuan couldn’t persuade him any more. He turned his attention to the giant roulette again. Seeing that there would be a protruding scraper every other segment on the circumference of the roulette. To block the water, the water flow hits the scraper blade, which will give an impact to the roulette. On the scraper, a thick iron pipe placed at 45 degrees diagonally upward is installed. This is the water bucket. A device used to hold water during the rotation of the turntable!
After looking at it for a while, Li Zexuan nodded and said, "Well! Very good! This is basically the waterwheel model that I envisioned in my mind, and the progress of the construction is really beyond my expectation, Fu Bo, you have worked hard. !"
Fubo smiled and said: "Hehe! Old age does not work hard! This is the result of the joint efforts of all the craftsmen in the workshop! The old man predicts that tomorrow this waterwheel can be installed on the Bahe River, and the corresponding water tank above will be built at that time. It should be ready for trial operation in the future!"
Li Zexuan heard the words and said with excitement: "Well! We'll bring a river to transport water and build a waterway in the sky!"
