Chapter 175: Five Villages in Jiangnan (5)
On the second day, Yan Song gathered the people of the village, as well as the professionals of the Yudu that she had invited from Yuqian, to gather around the newly built embankment and watch. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe embankment is trapezoidal, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and although it has only a small face, it forms a small lake surrounded by the surrounding mountains and rivers. It's only March, and it's still a long time before the rainy season in June, so the water level in the lake is still very shallow, and everyone can see the whole embankment and its material very well.
"This, this is the levee, can this thing really withstand the flood?" questioned the voices below, and then slowly walked out from behind. Xu Manxiu also deliberately made a scholar's outfit today, and pushed forward from the back of the crowd, his momentum became more and more rising, and the child behind him was still cheering for him vigorously, shouting the slogan that Brother Manxiu is awesome, Brother Manxiu is the strongest. This scene is indeed much stronger than Yan Song, who only has four people standing behind him in spring, summer, autumn and winter.
"Yo, Xu Xiucai from our village is here, in this way, the big guy, let Xu Xiucai come to evaluate, this little girl's achievements in the past few days can be regarded as passing!" In this way, whether she goes or stays, it depends on how Xu Manxiu judges.
"Okay!" Xu Manxiu opened the folding fan in his hand, "Since everyone trusts me so much, this time I naturally have to take a good look at Miss Yan's results." He took a closer look at the dam behind him, and the material of this dam was indeed different from the previous mud and sand, mixed with a lot of rubble, and it looked particularly strong. I didn't expect this girl to do some homework, not simply playing lip service!
"Young Master Xu, do you have any questions?" The girl looked confident, and Xu Manxiu was a little anxious.
"The material of this levee is indeed quite innovative, but it is not in June, and it is not at all clear whether it is strong or not on this day, how can you make sure that this levee will not burst in June. ”
It sounds like an ordinary question, but when you think about it, it's actually making things difficult for Yan Song. Now that it is clear that it is March, how to predict what will happen in June, and how to ensure that the levees in June will not burst!
Yan Song was not in a hurry, and asked Ah Xia to bring something and cover it with a red cloth, which looked mysterious.
Everyone below stretched their necks and couldn't help asking, "What is it here?" Naturally, everyone, including Xu Manxiu, didn't know what was here, until the moment the red cloth was uncovered, everyone sighed.
There was a dam that was exactly the same as the one in front of them, and other than that, the surrounding landscape was almost identical, so it was no wonder that everyone was dumbfounded.
"This is a model that I asked the craftsmen of Yudu to make, and it is completely based on the environment around this embankment, and the materials of this soil and embankment are also the same here, you can take a closer look. The surrounding villagers flocked to see the strange model.
Yan Song carefully poured the water into the puddle representing the small lake, as the water poured more and more, the water level continued to rise, everyone was watching the situation of the dam, but until the water level rose to the top, the dam did not collapse, everyone praised non-stop, it seems that this dam is really so strong.
"Miss Yan! That doesn't mean anything, maybe any kind of dam in this little box can achieve such an effect. ”
In the face of Xu Manxiu's questioning, Yan Song had already prepared, and she took out three boxes at the same time, which were a dam made of sediment, a dam planted with plants, and a dam as wide as the top and bottom. After repeating the previous operation, it was found that among the three types of dikes, only the kind of dikes with plants could not burst like the Fang Cai one.
At this point, most of the people believed it, and even Xu Manxiu couldn't find words for the time being.
"Actually, what Xu Gongzi said is right, we really can't guarantee the occurrence of any emergencies. Therefore, in June this year, all families were asked to harvest their crops earlier, and then followed Chen Fuzi from the three villages to take refuge in the three villages. If the dam can withstand it, the big guy will be able to live in peace in the future, and if it can't stand it, it won't cause too much damage. So, what do you think?"
Everyone looked at each other, and they didn't find anything wrong with Yan Song's proposal for a while, like everything that could happen, she had already made comprehensive arrangements. There were even people in the crowd who nodded their heads and silently agreed with Yan Song's proposal, but at this time, all the decisions were handed over to Xu Manxiu, who had been silent for a long time.
"Since everyone has no doubts, I have no problems. He lowered his eyes, and the folding fan that was open was also closed by him, he looked up at this girl carefully, this time it was her luck, if he caught any more tricks, he would still drive her out of Jiangnan.
Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter cheered, and the sea lord hovering in the sky also called a few times, as if to celebrate her. This time, it was the most beautiful victory she had ever had, and she had never felt such joy. For the first time, she stood up on her own, although she received some help from Yuqian, but this time she relied on herself for the most part.
Victory, the victory I have achieved, I have never been so joyful. The last time, probably when she helped everyone escape, but that time it failed, and twenty-six people died, and only she and Xuan Qi lived. But this time it was different, she really, really defended these villagers with her hands. This kind of joy can make her smile suddenly.
Xu Manxiu accidentally saw her happy smile, her smile was not very sweet, not like the feeling of the spring sun melting ice and snow, but more like strong grass, drilling out of the cracks in the stone to grow, so admirable. He had never known that such a smile would have a unique charm that would turn all his hostility towards her into kindness in this moment.
But Xu Manxiu didn't express this kind of kindness, he just opened his folding fan again, and then watched everyone reveling in place, shaking his head blankly.
This time, probably no one will question her identity as a descendant of the Yan family. Her hands-on efforts these days to help the villagers are naturally seen by everyone. She is like another Mrs. Yan, guarding Jiangnan and everyone.
"Miss!" Ah Chun almost jumped up, and couldn't help but say behind Yan Song, "Miss is really amazing, the flood problem in the south of the Yangtze River has been bothering them for a long time, but I didn't expect Miss to solve it as soon as she came!" Lord Hai behind Ah Chun walked back and forth beside her.
"Thanks to the fact that there is a book pavilion in this Yan Mansion, and the books in this book pavilion happen to be about water control, I was able to come up with a corresponding method. ”
Ah Xia held Fang Cai's model box in his hand, and said with difficulty, "Anyway, anyway, now that Miss can go out justifiably, she no longer has to be looked down upon, and Ah Xia feels happy when she thinks of this!"
Yes, it is the first time to walk through this street as a descendant of the Yan family, and this feeling is indeed different. I thought she wouldn't care about the title of the descendants of the Yan family, but it seemed that at this moment, she really won glory for the surname Yan, and that feeling was really different.
It turns out that Yan Song is not just a name.
