Save the Bachelor of Heaven

Chapter 4672 Chapter 4675 [Princess Returns]

In addition to promoting crops and agricultural tools, Xiangnan also built a dam in Thebes to control the water of the Nile River.

The Nile River is the only mother river in Egypt. Whether it is drought or flood is completely related to Egypt's national economy and people's livelihood and is of vital importance.

However, due to the large flow of water in the Nile, the first dam on the river, the Aswan Dam, was not built until the end of the 19th century.

With the dam, the water in the Nile River was finally controlled, avoiding multiple floods and droughts, and hydropower became an important source of electricity in Egypt.

Of course, after the dam was built, it also caused some bad effects. For example, the dam intercepted sediment, so that the land downstream could not be nourished by nutrient-rich sediment, resulting in a decrease in land fertility;

Since the river water no longer floods, the salt in the land cannot be taken away by the river water, causing the land to become salinized. There is no large amount of sediment washed into the sea, causing the Nile Delta to be eroded by the sea water.

But overall, the benefits of building a dam still outweigh the disadvantages. The economic losses and personal casualties caused by the Nile River's permanent floods and droughts are even more serious.

…

The dam was built by Xiang Nan alone.

For him as a Sanxian, building a dam really shouldn't be too simple.

He first used Poseidon's trident to cut off the flow of the river; then he used magic to dig out a deep foundation, then used hundreds of tons of boulders as the dam body, and finally installed dozens of tons of gates, and the dam became It was completed naturally.

The princes, ministers and people of Thebes were all shocked when they saw Xiang Nan parting from the rushing Nile. Because this has never happened before, it is simply a miracle.

They were so shocked that they all fell to their knees and shouted Xiang Nan's name.

And when they saw a boulder weighing hundreds of tons being lifted high in the air by Xiang Nan, their faces turned pale with shock.

Especially when the dam was completed and the unruly Nile water was finally controlled, people expressed their sincere admiration.

"Dear Pharaoh, you are worthy of being the incarnation of God, God's messenger, and God's spokesperson. Only you can conquer the Nile!"

"The Nile River has been blessed by you. You are the God of the gods and the king of us Egyptians!"

"You have infinite power, and you have a kind heart. We are willing to be loyal to you for life~"

People shouted loudly.

Xiang Nan laughed after hearing this.

…

After the dam was built, a huge artificial lake appeared next to Thebes, which was respectfully called the "Lake of the Gods" by the local people.

The Lake of Gods has a water storage capacity of up to 200 million cubic meters, which can be used to store water during floods to prevent downstream flooding. When there is a drought, water can be sent downstream to avoid drought downstream, which plays a very good regulating role.

That's why people like it very much.

The land around the lake, which was irrigated by the lake, and which was originally deserted desert land, suddenly became a land of plenty.

Xiang Nan also specially built a small island in the middle of the lake, and built a palace on the island that belonged to him and Ansuna.

Egypt has a typical tropical desert climate. Like Thebes, the highest temperature in summer exceeds 40 degrees, while the lowest temperature at night is only 20 degrees. Therefore, the temperature difference between day and night is large, there is much wind and sand, and the sun is blazing.

Building a palace on the lake, you can go there to enjoy the cool air in summer, and you can also go boating on the lake and enjoy the scenery of the lake and mountains. It is naturally a rare enjoyment.

..."My dear, you are so thoughtful." Ansuna was very happy, Xiang Nan was completely thinking about her.

Because Xiang Nan, as the incarnation of God, is not afraid of cold or heat at all.

During her honeymoon, she went to Mount Kilimanjaro. It was such a cold snow-capped mountain that she felt cold even wearing furs, but Xiang Nan remained **** and did not feel cold at all.

Therefore, he built a palace on the lake solely for her comfort. How could she not be moved by this?

"Of course, I want to give you the best." Xiang Nan nodded and smiled, "Wait a few more years, and after the national power is accumulated, I can take down the Hittite Empire.

By then, the entire Mediterranean will be ours. I will build you a bigger palace on the island of Cyprus~"

Hearing what he said, Ansuna was naturally even more happy.

At this moment, the minister came to report, "Honorable Pharaoh, there is sad news. Prince Abbas was killed last night."

"Killed? Killed by who?" Xiang Nan was stunned and asked quickly.

After Abbas killed his father Seti I, he was pardoned by Xiang Nan and kept all his property. After that, he lived in Thebes, living in seclusion and becoming a wealthy man.

Such a person supposedly has no enemies, so who was killed?

"It's not clear yet, I just know that his head was chopped off." The minister explained.

"The head was chopped off?" Xiang Nan was startled. "When he killed Seti I, he also chopped off his head. Is there any connection between them?"

"My dear, is someone seeking revenge for Seti I?" Ansuna immediately thought of it.

Xiang Nan quickly released his sense power, and in an instant, it spread throughout the entire city of Thebes. Then he nodded and said, "Yes, Princess Nefediri is back."

"It's her?! She actually dares to come back!" Upon hearing this, Ansuna became furious.

She was very unhappy when Nafedili escaped last time. No matter what she says this time, she won't be able to escape again.

"It seems that she has obtained a magic weapon." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "So she has the confidence to challenge me."

"Hmph, she has never been able to see her true strength clearly." Ansuna sneered, "My dear, give me a divine weapon and I will help you kill her!"

Although Ansuna and Nafedili are cousins, they have been at odds since childhood. Ansuna was jealous of Nefediri's status as a princess and hated her for taking away her reputation as a beauty.

Nafedili means "the most beautiful woman", but Ansuna always believed that she was the most beautiful woman in Egypt. Nafediri didn't deserve that name at all, and calling her that name was an insult.

"I have many artifacts, but I don't want you to take risks." Xiang Nan looked at Ansuna and said.

The artifact obtained by Nefydili is the Sword of Damocles that was obtained by the Scorpion King Mercais in "The Scorpion King 2".

This sword is said to have been made by Zeus using lightning. It is extremely sharp and can cut anything in half. Damocles used it to kill his own king, Philemon.

Later, he dedicated the sword to Astarte, the **** of love, war, moon, and the underworld. Astarte placed it in the underworld, but it was later stolen by the Scorpion King and used to kill Sargon, his father-killing enemy.

Seeing the Scorpion King's extremely strong physique, the goddess let him go and only withdrew the sword. Unexpectedly, now, Nafedili also found this sword.

Xiang Nan is not afraid of the sword, but he doesn't want Ansuna to take risks.
