Chapter 253: A Thousand Miles a Day, Floods Are Fiercer Than Tigers (Ask for a Monthly Pass Subscription, 2)
Life on board is extremely boring.
Occasionally, when he arrived at the nearest port and purchased supplies, Bai Ji would go down and walk around. The county orders everywhere were all trembling with fear, for fear that Bai Ji would let them mobilize grain and grass with a wave of his hand. Look at the people on the boat: the eldest son Fusu, Tai Shi Teng, Wucheng Marquis Wang Li, and finally Bai Ji, the elder son of the Great Qin State!
The rest of the petty officials will not be mentioned. This ticket came in a hurry, and it was even more ruthless than a bandit. As long as you open your mouth, they have to give whatever you want. Qin Shi Huang personally issued an edict, ordering all counties along the road to cooperate with Baiji, otherwise they would have to destroy the three tribes.
However, Bai Ji did not do this, and just asked them to send some fresh green vegetables and meat. I eat fish every day on the boat, and the white millet I eat smells of fish. White millet is not eaten in vain, and it must be given money. The person in charge of negotiating the price is Chun Yuyue, and he can keep the price to the lowest.
In the end, it cost more than 34,000 yuan, and Chun Yuyue showed a sincere smile, inadvertently revealing the talisman given by Qin Shi Huang.
"Rank, wipe zero!"
Without waiting for others to erase it, he opened his mouth and said 30,000.
My dear mother, have you ever seen such a zero?!
They can't argue yet, they can only give money.
There's no way, now Chun Yuyue can't wait to break the money in half and spend it. Now that the water master has a good meal, he eats and drinks spicy food at once, and his mouth is full of oil, and he can't wait to gnaw on the rice bowl. After eating, he threw his chopsticks and looked sad, "Your Majesty, there are still many Qianshou in Nanjun who are hungry at this moment, so we can eat less along the way." ”
Are you embarrassed to say that?
Bah! Old double standard!
The sailor has to practice and perform tasks, and he is very busy up and down. I have to fish every day, and I have to find time to catch fish.
That's right, it's fishing!
The reason is actually very simple, there are a large number of baiji dolphin crocodiles gathered around the building boat. If you want to fish, you have to row a small wooden boat to go somewhere else. Bai Ji thought about it, don't be so strenuous anymore, like the baiji dolphin also has to eat and rest, so he directly casts the immortal method and gathers a large number of river fish.
Bai Ji is tired of eating fish, but the sailor doesn't dislike it. In these years, if you have a mouthful of meat to eat, you know that you are enough, who would complain every day like Bai Ji and not eat a bite? The cooks' hair was almost gray, and Bai Ji looked hungry and thin, and if anything went wrong, they would be finished.
What?
Immortal?
Immortals can skip meals?
Every time they worship the heavens, don't they also have to give tribute?
I had to let Bai Ji hear this, otherwise they would have to be slaughtered and sacrificed to the sky!
As his cultivation progressed, his desire for food decreased. Sometimes a day or two passes after practicing, and he doesn't feel anything. Eating fish all day long, Fusu is not picky. Every time, he would hold a rice bowl and eat and drink with the soldiers. I didn't pay attention to the last time I ate fish, and I was stuck in my throat by a fish bone. Xu Fu directly poured him several sips of vinegar and swallowed two mouthfuls of dry rice.
Even if it's a show, Fusu can do it very well. Having him is equivalent to a reassuring pill, and many soldiers are similar to drinking Red Bull, and they are like cows every day. The reason is actually very simple, Fusu's identity is here, no matter how hard and tired they are, they will accompany them, can they not be excited? This is similar to the emperor's personal expedition, which is extremely important on a spiritual level.
Besides, it's not too beautiful on the ship. There is meat in the meal, paired with fresh spring bamboo shoots and mushrooms in the river, and then add some shredded meat to stir-fry directly, which is an authentic fried three fresh. I can eat all the soup at every meal, and I am reluctant to leave even a grain of rice.
After eating, you can also drink a glass of fruit wine, which is sweet and sour. You can also eat some oranges, whether it counts or not, you have to swallow it in your stomach anyway. This is Bai Ji's death order, and everyone must follow it.
It just so happens that the mulberries are also ripe now, and Baiji has purchased a lot along the road, and most of them have been soaked into mulberry wine. The taste of mulberries is very sweet, and Bai Ji actually liked to eat them when he was a child. It's just that it's more difficult to clean after eating, and all the clothes on your hands, mouth, and mouth are dyed red and purple, and it's hard to clean.
Bai Ji specifically asked Chun Yuyue, and mulberry is the easiest fruit to eat in Qianshou. Every year in April and May, mulberries are picked, and the taste is also excellent. Bai Ji will take a look at the building boat when he has free time these days to see if there is any problem with the propeller, or whether the immortal energy contained in the spirit stone is not enough. Along the way, I didn't encounter wind and waves, but hit the reef.
At that time, the building boat crashed into a big hole, and if Bai Ji hadn't made a timely move, the supplies of 2,000 stones would have been directly fed to the fish. Feiyu wiped his tears in distress at the time, and said that because the speed was too fast, he didn't react at that time. It had taken his father years to build, and if it sank, he wouldn't be alive.
At the critical moment, Bai Ji made a move, forcibly blocked the river with immortal methods, and then pasted the prepared wooden board on it, and then nailed it tightly with iron nails. Several boatmen were stupid, they didn't have the skills to repair ships. Iron nails are still so useful?!
……
The scenery along the way is beautiful, and time passes quickly with the building boat. After crossing the confluence of the Han River and the River River, they were only a few days away from Nanjun.
Qin Teng has been looking at the bamboo slips these days, all of which are relevant information sent by the county after approaching the port. I also passed by a that burst its levee, and the flood broke the embankment, and all the land within a radius of dozens of miles became a depression. Seeing that the house was soaked in the river, Fusu's eyes were red, and he was speechless for a long time.
There are many corpses of Qianshou soaked in the river, as well as cattle and sheep mountains. The carcasses of these animals were cheaper for crocodiles and other river fish, and crocodiles could also eat carrion. As for the other corpses, they were all fished up by Bai Ji. Dust to dust, dust to earth, Bai Ji cremated them and put them in the jar.
At the beginning, the building boat was still full of joy, after all, the scenery on both sides of the strait is really good. In his spare time, he can also play chess and cards, including Bai Ji, but he doesn't really go to his heart. However, when looking at the corpse floating in the water, Bai Ji couldn't laugh anymore at that moment.
It's one thing to think, it's another thing to see it with your own eyes. Qin Teng just sighed, when he was appointed as the county guard of Nanjun, he had seen a lot of similar things. He has also experienced many battles, large and small, and he is not afraid of this kind of decisive battle with real swords and real swords. But in the face of flooding, there is nothing to be done. Even if a dam is built, there is still a possibility that the dam will burst.
Every year during the rainy season and flood season, the river will be flooded. The heads of the coastal banks are all living in fear, and once the embankment bursts, they are the most unlucky.
"Your Majesty, is there a way to eradicate the flood?"
"It's hard."
Bai Ji shook his head, unless he could set foot in the Yuanying Realm and reach the point of the unity of heaven and man, it would be possible to say that he could control the celestial phenomena. In the later generations of high-tech development, is there really a way to completely eliminate flooding?
One word, difficult!
"There are also ways, we can build a dam in Bashu. Along the waterway, build dikes along the road. Then, we can also use the dam to generate electricity and control the flood peak. To put it simply, it is to store the flood water during the flood season and wait until the dry season to discharge the water to replenish the dryness. ”
They are all old fritters who have been mixed for many years, and they know more or less about these. In particular, they are naturally aware of the relevant water conservancy projects. The principle is simple, but it is not easy to implement. The Three Gorges Project, the world's largest water conservancy project, should not be too much thought about at this time.
As for power generation?
They used to skip words they didn't understand.
"The land of the Three Gorges, with mountains on both sides, is slightly nowhere to be found. Heavy rocks are stacked, hidden from the sky and the sun, and blocked along the trace. The terrain is dangerous, and if you want to build a dam, it seems to be ......" Qin Teng couldn't help but speak, in the past, Li Bing built Dujiangyan, and I don't know how many people died. It is almost impossible to build a dam.
"It's man-made, just take your time."
Bai Ji laughed and looked into the distance.
The water and sky are on the line, the sun is setting in the western mountains, and the egrets are flying in columns.
"Nanjun, it's finally here!"
No matter how serious the flood in South County is, he is sure that he will be able to prevent the levee from bursting!
