Chapter 558: The River Canal
The spring ploughing time is not long, but there are ploughing oxen and Quyuan ploughs distributed by Lu Chensheng.
After the spring plowing was completed, Li Daifu counted all the fields that had been cultivated, and when he reported to Lu Chensheng, the data he got was extremely good.
The fields outside the city are basically planted, as well as Jiyun City and Vertical Border City.
The fields that were distributed are now planted with seedlings.
The fertilizer has now been distributed, Li Daifu has inspected, and the people also know how much fertilizer is applied to an acre of land.
Lu Chensheng sat aside, listened to Li Daifu's report, and nodded.
Wang Tianxun, who was on the side, saw Li Daifu stop, stepped forward and said.
"Shopkeeper, the canal of Chengzhou has restarted, according to the schedule, it should take five years to complete the canal in the plan."
It took tens of thousands of captives to dig the canal with great diligence, and it would take almost five years to dig this canal.
In terms of progress, it is relatively slow, but it is understandable that the project will be slowed down due to the relatively small number of people.
Lu Chensheng didn't blame him for listening to this, but the progress was a little too slow.
Seeing that Lu Chensheng didn't say anything, but just continued to listen, Wang Tianxun breathed a sigh of relief.
"Outside the border plug of Jiang country, the water source is relatively scarce, which is not conducive to the cultivation of the people, and after thinking about it, the subordinates want to build a water pipe to drain the water a little over."
Wang Tianxun said, taking out a map from his cuff.
This is a map of the three places of Jiyun City, Vertical Border and Seonghan City, and the topography in it is extremely detailed.
Wang Tianxun found some painters and then slowly drew them.
Lu Chensheng looked at the map in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a little amazing, this map is really well drawn, extremely expressive.
"Is there still a map?"
Lu Chensheng didn't wait for Wang Tianxun to speak, and asked directly.
Wang Tianxun was stunned when he heard this, and then hurriedly said, "If the shopkeeper needs it, this map is for the shopkeeper, and his subordinates have asked the painter to draw a few more copies, and there is still this map at home." ”
Lu Chensheng was quite satisfied when he heard this, "Good job, you continue." ”
Lu Chensheng sat down again and beckoned.
Seeing this, Xiao Yu, who was standing behind her, immediately understood what her uncle meant, and hurriedly moved a chair and invited the two of them to sit down.
After thanking the two, they both sat down one after another.
"The shopkeeper, the subordinates think so, the canal outside Xinghan City is only because of the water on the Pingyun Mountain Range, and at the foot of the Pingyun Mountain Range, there is a dam we built.
The terrain there is relatively high, use cement to build a water pipe, and then lead water into Jiyun City, it doesn't take much effort, you can irrigate hundreds of thousands of acres of fields, if this is done, you don't have to worry about the lack of water if you want to come to Jiyun City's fields. ”
Wang Tianxun pointed to the mountains on the map, and then drew another one, directly drawing a straight line, pointing to Jiyun City.
Lu Chensheng nodded again and again when he heard this.
"Yes, your idea is very good, the cement is directly made into a water pipe, and then a small ditch is dug, and then the water pipe is stepped in, and the water can be brought through, so it is not very laborious and time-saving."
Regarding Wang Tianxun's plan, Lu Chensheng was quite satisfied with it.
Wang Tianxun listened to Lu Chensheng's appreciation, and his face was full of joy, "In this way, the subordinates will settle down, and when the time comes, they will send someone to repair this canal." ”
This plan, to be honest, he only thought of it after looking at the previous construction projects of Xinghan City.
Before Xinghan City, such a thing had already been buried for sewage discharge.
Then he thought of the Jiyun City he had just been to.
Relatively speaking, the scenery outside the Sai can only be seen in Jiyun City now.
The construction of the canal has made the banks of the canal full of life and planted with willow trees.
In the spring, the willow branches are full of green buds, and when the wind blows gently, the willow branches flutter with the wind, which is extremely beautiful.
If you don't know, you think this is the beauty of Jiangnan.
I don't know if the shopkeeper prefers the general scenery of the south of the Yangtze River.
After the canal was built, people planted more trees along the canal.
When you see some desolate places, you will also find a way to plant some trees.
Therefore, outside Xinghan City, it should have been a desolate and boundless scenery outside the Saiwai, but now it is gradually full of green trees and jungles.
It is also the appearance of Jiyun City that is still outside the plug.
He hasn't been to see Cheng Zhouguo's side, but it shouldn't take long to see the situation, I'm afraid it will be the same as Xinghan City, because there is also a canal over there.
In contrast, Jiyun City looks like a grandmother doesn't hurt, the cement road is built, but there is no waterway.
When he went to Jiyun City before, Liu Wensheng and Du Rufang found him, and after the two of them set up a banquet and poured a lot of wine, they asked him to find a way to build a waterway to Jiyun City.
In this way, there is water to water the fields, and transportation is more convenient.
It's just that Wang Tianxun has no way to directly agree to such a request.
When manpower was in dire need, a large number of people were sent to dig the canal, and now where is there still manpower to dig this side of the canal.
This is not something that can be agreed to, and once agreed, it will need to be funded.
Wang Tianxun refused, but then he also thought of this method of transferring water.
The dam under the Pingyun Mountain Range is on a high terrain, and when the water is drained, the water will rush directly to it, so there is basically no need to worry about anything else.
Lu Chensheng nodded and agreed with Wang Tianxun's plan.
After Wang Tianxun confirmed, he took out several other plans of his own to show Lu Chensheng.
These are all backwards, and if they are all agreed, they also need to be done according to the importance of the matter.
Lu Chensheng listened on the side, and Wang Tianxun said seriously.
After determining several feasible plans and rejecting three plans that are not necessary at present, Wang Tianxun's matter is over.
"Anything else?"
Lu Chensheng looked up and saw that the two of them had no intention of leaving, and suddenly felt a little strange.
As usual, after the two of them finished reporting, they should get up and leave.
But at this time, seeing that the two of them didn't want to leave, there should be something else?
The two glanced at each other, both a little embarrassed.
hesitated and didn't know how to talk to Lu Chensheng.
"If there is anything to say directly, it is for me, as long as it doesn't make me particularly embarrassed, I won't refuse."
When Lu Chensheng looked at it, he probably guessed that the two of them had something to ask, so he said it directly.
Is there a high probability that there is a lack of money?
This is nothing, and rewarding some money is still no problem for Lu Chensheng.
