Chapter 397 Planning
If you want to say that the water in Yuhang is about to become a flood, but the draft and watering are still problems, because the tide backs up, making the rivers near Yuhang difficult to drink and irrigate.
If you dig a well, you still need to find a good location, otherwise it will be a saltwater well.
And the work of digging wells in these years, even if the rich family wants to dig a well, they have to consider it, not to mention the labor money, even if they eat enough to eat the poor.
If you want to dig a well in these years, you really dig down with a spade and a spade, and after digging to the water layer, you can use stones to lift it up.
And that's not all, when the well water runs out in a dry year, you have to dig down with a shovel and pickaxe until you reach the water layer, and often a well needs to be dug many times before it is finished.
And the well gets a point more difficult every time you dig it, and you have to bet that you'll be able to touch the water every time, not the rocks.
Otherwise, a big rock can make you lose all your efforts, and there are no alloy drill bits these days.
The most important thing is that you can't dig this well into your own yard, if you dig a well and use it yourself, then you don't have to go out in the future.
Now that I am thinking, why do you use the well I dug with my own money?
Huh! At that time, it was really not good, and the heinous was called disharmony. At that time, there was also a saying: "Your stove pit is dug and the roof of the house is opened?"
Therefore, this little rich family did not dare to dig, and the bitter haha wanted to dig but did not have the grain to support the next well.
Don't think this is an exaggeration, a group of bitter haha, when it comes to the slack time, a few grains of rice a day are counted in the pot.
Drink thick when you are busy, drink thin when you are free, and try not to move as much as possible, otherwise it will consume food. Even send the little doll who can't eat the cattle, or you will lose money by herding the cattle!
Just calculated, there is another word called green and yellow. Work? Dream, who is not idle? When the farm work is rushing, it is only a few days, and the idle is all idle.
For various reasons, although Yuhang City is a city surrounded by a water network, it is indeed a city that lacks water.
The closer this situation is to the offshore, the more serious it becomes.
However, there are also many small villages near the sea, which specialize in catching the sea for a living. It's life-threatening, but at least you can survive.
It's just that there is a troublesome thing in the coastal waters, that is, the rent is all for grain, and these farmers who rush to the sea also need to grow some grain on the hillside or in a farther place to meet the state's taxes.
This is more time spent on the road than it is for work. Near? There is no land nearby, so if you want to take a sip of water, you have to store rainwater or run far to fetch water.
Therefore, after Cheng Hong finished repairing the temporary tidal dam, he immediately divided the people into two teams, one team was responsible for building a permanent tidal dam, and the other team was led by Cheng Hong himself, preparing to change a river with abundant water!
This river runs through the city of Yuhang, and then winds its way to the fields that were snatched out of the sea.
The entire canal is higher than the tidal dam, and the small canals that run vertically and horizontally spread across the entire field, and as long as the river does not dry up, the whole area will not be able to drought.
And this kind of small canal also has a use, that is, when it is flooded, all the water can be drained along the small canal.
All of this water collects into a huge pond below the mouth of the canal.
The only place where the pond can be connected to the canal is a few hydraulic overturns mounted on the canal's power transmission.
Powered by the flow of water from the canal, the water in the large pond is turned into the sea with a water wheel. If there is a waterlogging, all the transmission rods are connected, and there are dozens of barrel trucks on both sides of the canal, tumbling day and night, no matter how much water there is, it will not be able to soak the crops in the big waterlogging.
Besides, how can such a good land grow ordinary things?
With Cheng Hong's upland rice, it must be the best to grow upland rice! At least two crops a year, the yield of thirteen stones in one crop will definitely make this group of farmers fall out of their eyes in shock.
At that time, Yuhang alone will be enough for the food consumption of the entire Jiangnan East Road, and the rest of the places are planting, that is, to support the caravan.
Besides, in other places, Cheng Hong is simply not ready to grow food, whether it is tea or sugarcane, it must be a scarce thing for many years to come.
These two things are definitely stronger than growing rice.
At that time, Cheng Hong could use the money to buy sugarcane and tea, and then make white sugar and roasted tea and sell them everywhere.
Yuhang specializes in growing rice to supply the grain of the entire Jiangnan East Province, besides, even if Yuhang's rice harvest fails, there is still Zhancheng!
It's just a matter of two more trips for the Navy. In the past, I was most afraid of lack of food, and when the people were starving to death, something would happen.
I haven't seen countless dynasty changes, isn't it all caused by this group of hungry people whose eyes are blue?
The former strong man, inherited for more than 400 years, was not also overturned because of the Yellow Turban Uprising?
So Cheng Hongjian is telling everyone that ~ Jiangnan Dongdao, as long as the rice here is ripe, there will be no shortage of food!
In these days, food is expensive! Don't say anything else, let's just say that Cheng Hong's construction, if you don't go to Zhancheng early to bring back a steady stream of food, let alone build a city, you just build a toilet, you have to move bricks yourself!
It's not that no one goes, there is money and can't buy food, and can do such heavy work hungry?
Therefore, this food is the most important thing, whether it is in the people or in the country.
Whether you want to raise an army or a child, this food must be indispensable, and God is too stingy with the Han nation.
Whether it is the high-yield grain, or the grain that cannot be eaten in three seasons of the year, it is not in the place of the Han people.
Every time the Han nation fights, it is for this stuttering, what righteousness, what about the people, if it is not for stuttering, who is idle and has nothing to rebel?
Didn't the extremely exaggerated Kangqian prosperous era still rely on the credit of potatoes to let the people eat a full meal?
As long as the watered fields outside Yuhang City are still there, the entire Jiangnan Dongdao will look at this rice and live a good life with a careful budget.
This field is the thing that Cheng Hongan has in the hearts of the people of the entire Jiangnan Host Province.
When the time comes, the people of Jiangnan Dongdao, you can look at the golden eyes and smiling fishing at the junction of the waterway and sea outside Yuhang, the smiling boat, and the smiling let your mother-in-law rest for a while, so that you can have a few sons......
And the farmer looked at the crops in the field with a smile and calculated how much money could be sold, how many things could be exchanged for this money, anyway, this grain was purchased at a caravan protection price, and the price basically fluctuated up and down by a few dollars.
And there are two places to go for the harvested grain, the first is to replace the old treasury grain, and now Datang is rich, of course, it can't treat its own people badly.
Countless warehouses have been built in various prefectures and counties, and in Li Er's plan, this grain must be stored enough for all the people of the Tang Dynasty for a year.
Even if the entire Datang is confiscated with a grain of grain a year, with the warehouses of various states and counties, not a single person in the entire Datang people will starve to death.
Cheng Hong sounded funny, this emperor is afraid that he will be disgusted by eating that locust, otherwise how can he compete with the stored grain.
Anyway, taxes have risen sharply in recent years, and the emperor has an industry that the queen takes care of, so that the treasury and private treasury are a lot richer.
It can be said that the current Datang Dynasty is the appearance of drawing a sword and looking around to fight, if it weren't for Cheng Hongming's play, he secretly wrote a letter to stabilize the generals, and the world would have been turned upside down.
At this point, Chai Shao came to the vicinity of the Goguryeo border with his escort in the name of patrolling. shook it every few days, and scared Goguryeo's Rongwang Gao Jianwu three times a day.
I'm afraid that the Tang Dynasty will come over, if it weren't for the strong obstruction of Yili Ke Sumeru, it is estimated that Gao Jianwu would have to write a national letter in fright.
If you want to say that Iri Ke Sumeru, you may not know, but if you say that he has another name, it will be clear to everyone, Yi Li Ke Sumeru is the toughest pair of Goguryeo, Lu Yuan Gai Suwen, in order to avoid Li Yuan of the Tang Dynasty, he changed his name to Quan Gai Suwen.
That's right, it's the legendary Quangai Suwen who made three knives and had a talent comparable to Cao Mengde.
On the one hand, Quangai Suwen forbade the king to be soft, and on the other hand, he actively built a city wall on the border, and on the other hand, he also had to prevent the tribes of the Yan who had taken some medicine from the white water of the Black Mountain to take the people and plunder the people.
There is also a king in Pyongyang who wants to write a letter begging for mercy, destroy the Beijing Temple, and return the bones.
The spring cover Suwen is in a hurry.
After Cheng Hong heard about it, he specially wrote a letter to Chai Lingwu, informing Chai Lingwu that he must persuade Chai Shao to be restrained, restrained, and restrained.
If Quangai Suwen wants to build a city wall, let them build it, anyway, when the time comes, Goguryeo will not go from the city wall, Cheng Hong's plan is to build a navy and transport troops by sea to Pyongyang.
Let his Great Wall become a hedgehog, it is not to be held, and it is not to be lost.
Now the Tang Dynasty can't withstand the war, although it seems that everything is fine, but once the fight comes to a stalemate, this Goguryeo can drag on until the Tang Dynasty returns to the old days.
Therefore, it is necessary to restrain it, at least until the navy is formed, which can be worthy of a war, and in addition, Tubo on the plateau does not look so honest, and if he does something and drags his hands and feet, the conquest of Goguryeo will be wasted.
The three expeditions of the former Sui to Goguryeo, if the Tang Dynasty could not make meritorious contributions in the first war, it would definitely remind the people of the three expeditions of the former Sui.
The army and the people must be war-weary, so this war is not comparable to the Western Regions and Tibet, and we must be cautious.
In the end, Chai Lingwu replied: It's okay to persuade Aya to return, but I have to leave a place for me to conquer Goguryeo.
The angry Cheng Hong scolded Chai Lingwu for taking advantage of the fire to rob! Only then did Cheng Hong know what Chai Shao's intention was to go against the tide in the general direction of military generals.
And this is also a signal from Li Er to Cheng Hong~ What's the matter? How long will you need? If you're not ready, I'm not going to take you to play
Yes, it's a game to destroy a Goguryeo, it's just a different way of playing.
Now Li Er is waiting, the first is waiting for the navy to become an army, and the second is waiting for Li Tai's cannon, waiting for Li Tai's cannon to be cast safely, light, and fast.
The third was waiting for Lieutenant Chi Baoqi, who extended the road beyond the Great Wall of Goguryeo.
As long as two of these three conditions are met, this Goguryeo can raise his hand.
