Chonghua led the people to dig ditches and divert water from the Yellow River, Huai River and Luo River to irrigate farmland, so that the five grains were harvested. At the beginning of the following year, the wind and rain were smooth every year, Chonghua still took the people, continued to dig irrigation ditches, and persisted for ten years, ten years finally made the world's farmland can be irrigated by the technique of drainage ditches, and after two years, the world was in drought again, and the farmland under the whole world can drink water for irrigation, although the rain did not fall throughout the summer, but the people still got a bumper harvest, the people of the world are not convinced by Chonghua's wisdom and perseverance, and also believe in Chonghua's virtue, Yao also appointed Chonghua as the prime minister, in charge of the world's hundred officials.
After a few more years, the world was flooded with great might, surrounding the mountains and spreading over the hills, and the people were very sad. All officials said that it can cure water. So Yao appointed Kun as the minister of water control, and Kun Guang repaired the embankment to chase and intercept the flood, which was effective at first, but soon attracted a greater flood. In this way, nine years of water control have not achieved the slightest results. Yao was furious and ordered to behead Kun.

Kun's son, Wen Ming, was appointed as the Minister of Water Control, and he was ordered to inherit Kun's career and control the monstrous floods. Wen Ming accepted the order of Emperor Shun and arrived with Yi and Houji, and Wen Ming learned from his father's lesson and no longer used the method of containing the flood, but used the method of dredging. The order was issued to the princes and officials to mobilize the soldiers who had been sentenced to hard labor to divide the land of Kyushu. Along the way, he crossed mountains and mountains, erecting wooden stakes as signs to measure the appearance of mountains and rivers. Wen Ming ignored the fatigue and thought hard, lived outside for ten years, passed by the front of the house several times and never entered, he cut down on food and clothing, lived in a simple house, and used all his resources to control the flood. His actions moved the heavens, and the Taiqing sage ordered the Xuandu Daoist to send three magic weapons, which were the Dinghai Shenzhen Iron refined by the Taiqing Sage, which could be used to determine the water depth of the river; The Xuantian Sage refined the Xuanhua axe, which can be used to split the mountains and dredge the river; The Nuwa sage was modeled after the map of the mountains and rivers and refined the map of the rivers and rivers, which was used to record the location of the mountains and rivers.

Wenming divided the world into nine states, namely Jizhou, Xuzhou, Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Yangzhou, Jingzhou, Liangzhou, Yongzhou and Yuzhou. According to the fertility of the soil in each place, it is divided into nine grades, and the amount of tax to be paid is determined according to the grade of the soil in each place. It also wrote down the special products of various places, and stipulated the varieties to be taxed in various places, such as: animal skins, salt, pine, silk, strange stones, and so on.
After another ten years, all the mountains and rivers were brought under control, roads were opened in the nine mountain ranges, water sources were dredged in the nine major rivers, and embankments were built in the nine large lakes, so that all parts of Kyushu could be inhabited and there would be no more floods.

Shun You's prisoner Yao won the world, and ordered Long to be the official of the program, inspecting the world, plus the people of the world felt Shun's kindness, and they didn't know the truth, so naturally no one said what was right or wrong.

Wen Ming returned to the palace to see Emperor Shun, the two chatted all night in the palace, no one knew what they talked about, the next morning dynasty, Shun gave the emperor Zen to Wen Ming, and then went to the south alone, and died of illness in Jiuzhi Mountain soon after.
