Chapter 733: There are fish in the ditch

There is no very wide river in Anzhu City, only a few small rivers with a width of less than three zhang, but fortunately, the water quality of the river is quite clear, almost all of them meet the drinking standard, you can drink raw water directly, just for the health of the body, it is better not to drink raw water.

The most polluted outside Anzhu are the lime mines and cement workshops, but these two factories are twenty miles to the north, and the river they pass through goes north and flows into a large river, which eventually flows into the ocean, and will not have any real impact on the environment of Anzhu City.

In the upper reaches of several small rivers in Anzhu City, the biggest source of pollution should be the brick kiln factory, in addition, there is sand mining and quarrying, these activities will have a certain impact on water quality, however, because the natural water source has the function of self-purification, as long as the pollution is not very serious, it will be easy to be self-purified.

In the Qingshui River, where the flow is quite good, if a person pees upstream, and the downstream person drinks the river water polluted by urine, there will be no discomfort, because the river water has enough flow, and a small amount of urine can be diluted, or self-purified.

In the same way, the turbidity of the river caused by quarrying and sand mining, and the waste water from the brick kiln factory, will also be purified by the self-purification ability of the river itself, and when the river water flows into Anzhu City, it will become clear water again.

Because the two larger rivers are in the south and north of Anzhu City, and several rivers flowing into Anzhu City are at the level of small streams, and small fishing boats are impassable, so naturally there is no need to build large bridges and holes in the city wall specifically for these small rivers, since there are no boats to pass through, it is enough to build a few small culverts that can pass through the water flow, so that the strength of the city wall is also minimal.

For the convenience of the people in the city, the number of small bridges in the city can really be said to be very large, but because the river is very narrow, the width of the largest is only three zhang, and the need to build is ultra-small bridges, so even if the number of construction is large, there is not much difficulty, the easiest place, a few reinforced concrete slabs can be done, and even, some people in order to cross the river conveniently, they privately built a simple wooden bridge with wooden sticks.

Of course, these simple small bridges are for people to pass, horses and vehicles cannot easily pass, and they must take the strong bridges built by the Tang Dynasty.

After crossing a small bridge, Ang Lee saw a dozen children gathered next to the small culvert and were busy, looking better and happier.

After getting closer, Li An saw that they were holding bamboo baskets in their hands, as well as tools such as nets, and they seemed to be salvaging something.

Li An suddenly became interested, jumped off his horse and walked to the middle of a group of children, wanting to see what they were doing.

A group of children who were happy to play, when they saw Li An and the others walking over, they were all stupid, and they all stood still, and looked at Li An and the others with an innocent face.

These dozen children, at first glance, are standard Tang children, not local children, presumably, they came with their families.

The fish baskets and nets on the ground are also models only used by Datang fishermen, and the locals do not use them, so it is easy to determine their identity.

"Are you catching fish? Will there be fish in this creek? ”

Li Anhe got closer curiously, this small river is very narrow, and the river is not deep, only half a person's depth, and the shallow place is more than knees at most.

The most important point is that the river water is relatively clear, and it is said that if the water is clear, there are no fish, how can there be fish in this clear water river? Ang Lee often passes by this small river, and has never found any traces of fish and shrimp, and does not feel that there are fish in this river.

However, the strange thing is that when Li An walked to the side of the fish basket and looked at the fish basket, he really found that there were fish in it, and there were more than a dozen small fish.

"In such a small Qingshui River, there are actually fish, and they are not small, why haven't you found them before?"

Ang Lee muttered to himself curiously.

"I guess someone put it on purpose!"

A civilian official speculated.

"Boy, did this fish come from this river?"

Li An looked at the children and asked.

Several children looked at Li Ang in a daze, as if they did not dare to speak.

"It was out of this hole that I was lying down."

A bold child replied.

There is only one small culvert here, and the width of the culvert can only accommodate one person, which is much narrower than the small river, so when the water flows through the culvert, the flow rate will become much faster, and at the same time, because the flow rate becomes faster, so, under the exit of the small culvert, there is a large and relatively deep pit, which is the water flow out of the impact.

As for why there are fish in this clear river, maybe Li An was too careless before, did not observe carefully, and ignored a small number of small fish, or because the population of Anzhu City is increasing, and some people put the fish fry they bought into this river, so that this small river has fish.

In either case, in short, there are indeed fish in this clear river in front of them, and what these children are doing is catching fish.

However, because the water of this river is so clear that there is almost no food in it, Ang Lee feels that the small fish in this river will not grow up.

"Come on, let me play."

Li Ang took the net in the child's hand, put it on the mouth of the small culvert, and waited patiently.

"Hey, I really caught a fish."

Ang Lee happily put the fish in the basket and returned the net to the child.

When Ang Lee walked a little farther away, the children began to make noise again, chatting and catching fish, and having fun.

Seeing these children having so much fun, Ang Lee remembered his childhood, he came to Datang and became a young man directly, there is no so-called childhood, the so-called childhood, naturally it is the childhood of the previous life.

In his childhood in his previous life, Ang Lee had too many memories, and the most memories were with a group of friends, fishing and catching shrimp in the ditch, and those days were the most comfortable days in Ang Lee's previous life.

Regarding fishing and catching shrimp, Ang Lee has too much experience, and is even far more powerful than ordinary people in many aspects, and has never lagged behind in touching fish and catching shrimp.

For example, on the bottom surface of the bridge hole, there are generally fish and shrimp, and because the river is very deep below, even if there is a drought, the small ditch is dried up, and there will be a certain amount of water in this area at the bottom of the bridge hole, and in this piece of water, fish and shrimp can generally be found, and even, near this area, there will be a new hole for lobsters, as long as you put your arm into it, you will definitely have a harvest.

Of course, it must be a newly drilled hole, the hole must have fresh yellow mud, this is a must, if there is only a simple hole, then be careful, maybe what is inside? It's likely to be a snake, and if you accidentally get bitten by a snake, you're in trouble.

Some lobster's hole is particularly deep, even if the whole arm is stretched into it can not touch the bottom, at this time it is necessary to use the help of a shovel, use a shovel to dig down a large piece of the hole, and then continue to dig, if you can't reach it, then continue to dig, as long as you have the strength and patience, you will always dig up the lobster in the hole, of course, when touching the lobster hole, you must be very careful, because the lobster's pincers are very hard, it is easy to break people's fingers.

When Ang Lee was a child in his previous life, when he was digging a lobster hole, he was not often clawed by lobsters, and his fingers were often broken and bleeding, so don't want to hurt it.

However, with the accumulation of experience step by step, when I was a little older, I was rarely clawed by lobsters, and I mastered various tricks of digging lobsters.

The trick is to explore slowly, when you touch the lobster tongs, quickly retract it, and then continue to try, through many temptations, to figure out the state of the lobster in the hole, the position of the tongs and the body, and then jerk over the lobster's pincers, hold the lobster's body, and then, before the lobster reacts, take it out of the hole and throw it in the ditch next to it.

Through this method, you can get a complete lobster, and the fingers are generally not clamped, and some people like to pinch the pincers of the lobster and drag it directly on the net, so that the pincers of the lobster will definitely be broken, so that the lobster is not beautiful, and the dishes are all lobsters without tongs, how ugly it should be!

As soon as he thought of these childhood anecdotes, Ang Lee laughed unconsciously, laughing very happily and happily, and even a little heartless.

"Li Shilang, why are you so happy?"

A civil servant asked.

Li An was stunned for a moment, looked back at the dozen or so children who were catching fish, and said, "It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of going down to the river to catch fish with my friends when I was a child." ”

"Oh."

Several subordinates were stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.

The length of the east city wall is the longest, there are three city gates alone, these three city gates have been completed, and the huge solid wood gate has been installed, however, the city gate building above has not been completely built, and it is estimated that it will take some time to cap.

Each city gate has only one gate hole, as long as there is enough for carriages and horses to pass, unless the capital city of Chang'an City will choose to set up up as many as five door openings in the important city gates.

As for the future Anzhu City commerce will become more and more frequent, the city gate is prone to congestion, that is not a big deal, the big deal is to tear down the city wall, and build a few more city gates, anyway, it will not cost much, there is money and manpower to get things done.

After inspecting the city walls, Li An and his military officials returned to the dining hall for dinner, and after eating and drinking, they went to the Colosseum to watch a performance for a while, and returned to their residences in the afternoon when it was almost dark.

"Ah Lang, you're tired of the day, what do you want to eat?"

"Ah Lang, let the slave give you a button!"

Yun'er and the white fox all came over to offer their courtesy, and their smiles were sweet.

Looking at the four handsome maids, who took the initiative to serve him so enthusiastically, Li Anxin was in full bloom, and at the same time, he also began to sigh at the gentleness of women in this era.

Li An is an absolute successful person, working hard outside all day during the day, returning to the residence in the evening, must be very tired, at this time can hear the gentle greeting, the heart is naturally quite warm, the fatigue of the day will also be released in an instant, if you hit a cannon or something at night, it will be more refreshing, it will be more able to release the pressure.

If you want to say that it is better in ancient times, at least for men, ancient men have more status, after a tired day, you can have a wife to serve you when you return home, if you are a little unsatisfactory, you can also clean up a good meal, and the wife is obedient.

And the men of later generations are more miserable, marrying a daughter-in-law often has to spend all the assets of the family, marry into the door with great difficulty, and have to hold the daughter-in-law in the palm of the hand like serving Lafayette, in case the daughter-in-law is unhappy, it is possible to run away with others, in that case, the savings of a lifetime will be all over, and it is impossible to marry another daughter-in-law.

Economic status determines people's social status, wealth, that is, if you have money, you can speak hard enough, a man without money, he will seem to have no strength to speak, and people will be very inferior, and after he is rich, he will be very hard to speak, and people will be very spiritual.

The reason why men in later generations will be afraid of their wives and treat their wives as ancestors is that many times it is because they have no real skills, it is not easy to marry a wife, once they lose it, it will be difficult to marry a second one, especially a middle-aged man with no money, who does not have the conditions to remarry at all, so he can only be an ancestor for it.

Rich uncles are different, because they have enough money in their hands, they can find a young and beautiful little Lori at any time, and they don't have to worry about finding a woman at all, so they can still express their views hard, if a woman dares to go against the sky, then leave it, the uncle has money, and he can find a more tender student girl at any time.

In a money society, having money almost means having everything, and rich people can buy everything they want, even women, but what they can't buy is probably only sincere.

Only the true heart of this kind of thing can not be bought by money, and everything else seems to be bought, however, the true heart of people cannot be bought, but the true heart of animals can be bought, such as raising a dog and giving him food every day, he will be absolutely loyal to the owner, so there are more and more people who have dogs in later generations.

"It doesn't matter what you eat, the important thing is that you eat with me, and that's enough."

Li An gently stroked the pink faces of the white fox and Yun'er, and said gently.

In the more than half a year that he went south to open up the Maritime Silk Road, Li An lived a good life, and he didn't feel too homesick at all, and the reason was very simple, that is, there were beauties along the way, and he lived a very fulfilling life, where did he still have time to miss home.

"Hee-hee, Ah Lang is waiting! Let's go serve the food. ”

When the four of them heard this, they ran to serve the dishes with a smile, each more positive than the other.

Li An grabbed the white fox with his hand, pulled it into his arms, and smiled evilly: "It's just a dish, where do you need so many people to go together, come, let Ah Lang take a good look at it, is he losing weight again." ”
