Three Kingdoms: Starting from the Need for a Small County Magistrate

Chapter [-]

The next morning, when Xiao Yi woke up... and found that Cai Yan was no longer around.

Last night... well, everything came naturally! But after all, she has not been given a name, and doing so is indeed a bit disregarding her considerations.

"It seems that we have to ask old man Cai to propose marriage as soon as possible, and we can't wrong the little lady Zhao Ji."

When he walked out of the room, he saw that the servants in the house were all looking at him and snickering.

Whispering, not knowing what to say.

Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows, what happened to these girls, their courage is getting fatter, and they dare to talk about their master in private! "Yun'er, come here!"

Xiao Yi shouted with a straight face.

Yun'er with two buns hurried over, but she was not at all afraid of Xiao Yi's angry look.

Because she knew that her master was not really angry.

Although Yun'er is a maid, but because of her credit for inventing the cloud towel, her status in the palace is the same as that of the housekeeper.

In fact, Xiao Yi did not hire a special housekeeper, she was worried about the big and small matters.

"Hehe, congratulations, master."

As soon as she came up, she congratulated Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi pretended to be puzzled and said solemnly, "There is no such thing as a happy event, don't blindly congratulate!"

Yun'er smiled, "Miss Zhaoji last night..."

Xiao Yi glared at her, making her shut up quickly.

"Where's Madam and Zhao Ji?"

Xiao Yi asked.

"The two ladies have returned to the Cai Mansion."

Yun'er covered her mouth and snickered, then turned and ran away.

The maids in the house knew Xiao Yi's character and would make some jokes on weekdays.

Although it is a master-servant relationship, they get along very well.

Everyone likes Xiao Yi very much.

"Forget it, let's deal with the drought first."

Xiao Yi originally wanted to go to the Cai Mansion to find them, and by the way, he would have a showdown with Cai Yong.

But thinking about it, now is not the time.

When they came to the government office, Xun You and the others had already arrived early.

They were sitting around the sand table, as if they were surprised to see aliens.

"Lord!"

"This model is so realistic!"

"Could it be that the lord is...according to those . . . curved lines, he made a model of the entire territory of Zhuo County. The lord is a great talent, which has opened my eyes again."

"With this model, it will be easier and more intuitive to arrange troops in the future, and handling government affairs will also become: much more convenient."

"My lord, how many things are there in this world, you won't know"

Everyone understands the value of this model! At a glance, you can see the whole of Zhuo County, which is equivalent to sitting at home and controlling the whole situation. "Okay, stop flattering."

Xiao Yi looks like you have never seen the world on the surface, but in his heart he is secretly happy.

One night's hard work was not in vain. With this sand table, it will be much more convenient to do many things in the future.

"The countermeasures I asked you to think about, how do you think about it, how to deal with the drought and ensure the harvest of grain"

Xiao Yi's questioning eyes passed over them.

The generals tilted their heads, with an attitude of nothing to do with me, so that almost no one kicked out with a single kick.

These guys are willing to degenerate! "No matter...

You all thought about it last night, each of you must give me a countermeasure, otherwise I will be punished for one month, which is all the salary!"

Xiao Yi threatened.

All salaries, of course, include some daily necessities! The generals couldn't help but chrysanthemums! As soon as they tightened, they quickly turned their heads and thought.

"Berwen, you speak first."

When I saw these guys, I didn't think about it last night, and Xiao Yi didn't make it difficult for them, starting from the counselor.

Liu Ji really thought about it last night, "My lord, if it's half a month, it's still too late to store the water."

"Building a dam is not something that happens overnight. No matter how much manpower and material resources are invested, there is no way to build a dam within half a month."

Xiao Yi frowned, if this was Liu Ji's method, then he had every reason to doubt whether it was made up.

Liu Ji smiled and said, "It's definitely too late to build dams now, but there are many lakes in Zhuo County. We can dig ditches and introduce water from the Juma River and holy water into these lakes, which has achieved the effect of water storage."

This is a way! Xiao Yi nodded, "It's possible!"

However, Xun You, who was beside him, shook his head, "My lord, Mr. Liu, someone has also thought of this method, but those...the lakes are all located in low-lying areas, and it is easy to get in and out of water.

Even if it is full of water, there is no way to water the crops in the distance.

You can't, let people carry it over one by one."

After Liu Ji heard this, he pondered.

This question is rather tricky.

"Besides, the flow of holy water is not large, and most lakes are covered with holy water. It is not an easy task to fill the lake with water in such a short period of time.

If you do this, I'm afraid that in the end, it will be wasteful for the people and the money, but it will not have any effect."

Liu Ji nodded, indicating that Xun You was right.

"My lord, what Gongda said is very true, his subordinates hadn't considered it.

I didn't know there was a magic way to go public"

Everyone's eyes fell on Xun You.

The latter's face suddenly became embarrassed, and he smiled embarrassingly, "To be honest, there is no magic trick below.

Water is a gift from the gods, and the sky is going to suffer from severe droughts, and manpower is hard to resist.”

Xun You shook his head.

The others were also dazed, not knowing how to fight against Heaven with human strength.

"Haven't you heard of the word, man will conquer the sky?"

Xiao Yi is not the kind of person who... sits and waits for death. Since he knew in advance that there would be a major drought, he would definitely be able to come up with a way to deal with it.

"As long as everyone works together, nothing will fail!"

"Lord!"

Everyone was encouraged by Xiao Yi's words, one by one, opened their eyes and cheered up.

"Yuanzhi, Zhizhai is not here now, you can replace his position and recruit people, the more the better.

As for wages, they will be paid according to the market price.”

"My lord, you are..."

"Dig a canal to divert water!"

Xiao Yi decided to adopt Liu Ji's method.

"However, it is easy to store water, but difficult to release it."

Xun You and others were puzzled.

"This, I have my own way."

"But the amount of holy water is not large. In such a short period of time, I'm afraid it will be difficult to fill all the lakes."

Xun You continued.

"Since the holy water is not enough..., let's borrow water from other places!"

"Borrow water!"

Everyone was shocked.

For the first time, they heard that water can be borrowed! "Where to borrow water"

Yue Fei asked.

"Fifteen miles north of the holy water, there is a river ten times larger than it, borrow water from there."

"Tired water!"

Everyone immediately.

reacted.

"What the lord means is, dig a ditch and bring the tired water into the holy water"

"Not ditches, but canals!"

"canal"

This is a big project.

Xiao Yi also understands that although this move will consume a lot of manpower and material resources, as long as this canal is built, Zhuo County will have sufficient water sources in the future.

This is a project that will benefit the people for a long time, and it is absolutely feasible! "Okay, let me arrange a task, Yuan Zhi is responsible for recruiting the people, Bowen is responsible for digging the ditches, and the water from the two rivers is introduced into the lake, and Cun Xiao is responsible for building the canal.

Time is running out, and everyone hastened to move.
