Chapter 245: No Rules, No Circle
"Why don't you let him stay? After all, he knows this place best, and it would be easier for him to help manage it. ”
Su Qing couldn't help but ask when she looked at Xiao Jingchen's busy appearance, and after asking, she felt that her question was a little too unnecessary.
After all, the king of Mobei used to be the king here, if he continued to stay here, it was inevitable that he would not have rebellion, and it was the best choice to send him away in order to avoid any trouble in the future.
Xiao Jingchen was busy Su Qing was not idle, she flipped through some books that recorded the customs and customs of Mobei, and found that it was indeed relatively arid here.
There are only two rainy seasons a year, which last up to ten days, and people will find ways to store the rainwater.
Solving the problem of water for the people here is the biggest problem at the moment, otherwise it is very likely that someone will take advantage of this to make trouble.
"Since there is a big river near here, why don't you bring in the river water?" Su Qing rode on horseback and walked side by side with Xiao Jingchen.
She could feel that everywhere they went, the people were casting complaining glances at them, and they didn't want to be close to them at all.
But Xiao Jingchen didn't care about this, he came here so high-profile this time to let all the Mobei people know that this place had been taken over by him.
Whether they wanted to or not, they had to accept his rule.
"I can show you there, it's not far away. After inspecting back and forth, Xiao Jingchen stretched out his hand towards Su Qing.
Both of them were riding on horses, and Su Qing didn't understand the meaning of his action.
But her horse reacted quickly and took two steps forward, Xiao Jingchen grabbed Su Qing's hand and pulled her onto his horse.
"It's getting dark, let's go and get back quickly. Su Qing felt herself fall into a broad chest, and Xiao Jingchen protected her in front of her and drove the horse forward. #@$&
The guards behind him saw that the prince and the princess had run out and hurriedly wanted to follow, but Xiao Jue reached out to stop them instead.
"They'll be back soon, so don't keep them with you. ”
"Brother Xiao, no one is following along the way, if you encounter any danger......" The guards were very uneasy.
Xiao Jue glanced at the backs of the two of them and pursed the corners of his lips: "Is there any trouble that the prince can't solve?"
Su Qing looked at the surrounding scenery all the way and soon heard the rumbling sound of water, this big river was even bigger than she imagined. %&(&
Further on, you can smell the smell of water, and the surrounding air is obviously much more humid, but there is still a faint earthy smell.
"It's here. Xiao Jingchen's deep voice sounded in his ears, and the horse also stopped.
As soon as Su Qing raised his eyes, he was shocked by the scene in front of him, this is not only a big river, it should be said to be the largest river.
The river was not as clear and transparent as she imagined, but rolled with yellow sand, rushing down with mud, splashing countless muddy splashes.
The banks are also bare mounds washed by the river on their backs, and it is impossible to tell the difference between the river and the land from a distance, so the water is naturally undrinkable.
On the shore not far away, there was a simple water platform that was built, and Xiao Jingchen took Su Qing up to it.
"They come here to fetch water when they don't have enough water, but you can see the water here, and although the rain is not clean, at least it looks more like water than the water in the river. ”
Su Qing didn't speak, but stepped forward to put down the bucket and lifted a bucket of muddy yellow water in the rushing river.
The sediment in the river is not flowing, and the sediment is gradually precipitating, but a bucket full of water actually precipitates most of the sand, and there is only a shallow layer of water on the top.
"Lord Wang, I have a way. ”
Xiao Jingchen originally wanted to take Su Qing to see the reason why there was not enough water here, but she didn't expect that she just took a bucket of water and looked at it, and then told him that there was a way with a firm look.
When she returned to her residence in the evening, Su Qing was busy at the table with a pen and paper all night.
They lived in the original palace in Mobei, the place was quite spacious, and the water in the palace was naturally enough, but Su Qing thought that the people here had difficulty even draught, and even used half of the water for bathing.
Early the next morning, she went to Xiao Jingchen with the drawings she had drawn all night, but found that he was no longer in the house.
I hurriedly found out that many people came to block the door today, saying that they had no water and their daily lives were difficult, and they wanted Xiao Jingchen to help them solve the problem.
Seeing that these people were strong and strong, they didn't come to Xiao Jingchen for help at all, but to block him.
"You are a dignified king of war, you can't just be majestic on the battlefield, since we have recovered it, we should solve the problems of our people, we can't even drink water now, and we are dying of thirst. ”
"I can assure you that in three days every household will have plenty of water to use!"
Before Xiao Jingchen could speak, he heard a crisp voice from behind the city gate, and then a tall and clear figure walked out.
"Princess, the prince is ...... now" Xiao Jue didn't expect Su Qing to suddenly appear, so he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.
The people below heard the word princess and made a louder noise.
"Since the princess has said it, then we will wait for three more days, if we don't have water after three days, don't blame us for not recognizing you as the lord of the war king!"
"Okay, we'll see you in three days. ”
Xiao Jingchen lowered his eyes and said in a cold tone, and waited until those people were finished before looking at Su Qing with a cold face: "Who asked you to come?"
"I'm here to show you this. Su Qing said and handed over the drawings in his hand: "This is a method I thought of last night, but three days may be a bit rushed, I was ......in a hurry just now."
Xiao Jingchen looked at the drawings in his hand, and set up several levels extending inward from the river channel, each of which was filled with different materials.
There are stones, fine sand, lime powder, and even cotton wool in the back.
This kind of filter device was learned by Su Qing when he was in junior high school, but it still seems to be very prominent now.
"The parts where these materials are placed can be opened and replaced at any time, and they can be replaced once in a few months to half a year to ensure water quality. ”
Su Qing also explained on the side, Xiao Jingchen was more surprised than feeling that a trouble had been solved, and even a little suspicious.
But according to Su Qing's idea, he arranged people to go down, and Su Qing was the main supervisor and began to dig the first channel for the river to be diverted.
The progress is faster than she imagined, in the end, it is the people under Xiao Jingchen's hands, one to two, and when they dig the channel and then put the prepared materials down, it is basically done.
Three days later, the people on the side of the road all stretched their necks, and Su Qing personally opened the irrigation outlet, and the turbid river water poured into it instantly.
Now not only those people, but even Xiao Jingchen and Su Qing and the soldiers under their hands are all waiting eagerly.
Gradually, the sound of water was heard, and the waterway on the side of the road gradually became wet, and the thin stream of water was filling up the long-dried rice, and the water was so clear and transparent that the naked eye could not see the slightest turbidity.
