This time, the construction of the dam was thanks to Youlu County's order, because he had some insights on water conservancy projects, so Mu Changjin almost left him with full authority, and things were progressing very quickly, which made Mu Changjin very satisfied.

"It's just a short period of ten days, and half of it has been completed, and Lu County's order is really condescending to stay in this small county magistrate's official position."

When Mu Changjin took people on an inspection, he looked at the drawings in his hand, and then compared the current phenomenon, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

In his heart, he secretly recognized Lu County's ability, fortunately, he was idle at the time and had nothing to do to chat with this county commander, otherwise I am afraid that I would miss such a talent.

And speaking of which, this person is really very good, he can make some people who originally licked blood from the tip of the knife good, and in addition, he can also get the respect and love of all the people up and down.

Mu Changjin glanced at Lu County, who was standing behind him and discussing with the people how to continue the construction, and nodded secretly.

The people worked together, and Lu County's order was extraordinary, and the construction of the embankment was a thousand miles away.

Seeing that most of it had been completed, Lu Xianling was very excited, he didn't expect that his order could be done like this, and watching his ideas being implemented, he really had an indescribable sense of achievement.

On the same day, seeing that today's work had been completed, he simply arranged for everyone to rest for a day and continue to work in two days.

The people naturally cheered, everyone had worked so long, and they really needed a good rest, and the bandits who had been clamoring for a riot before no longer had any strength.

As soon as they heard that they could rest, they almost ran away and went back to the house to catch up on their sleep, and they still did the dirty work for two more days, so they had to conserve their strength and recuperate.

Li Le couldn't help but feel funny when he saw that he was still in good spirits a few days ago, and he was almost tired at the moment.

"After I have rested enough today, I will work hard tomorrow and strive to finish the rest within ten days!"

Lu Xianling clapped his hands and asked everyone who was preparing to rest and leave to listen to his number.

Everyone couldn't help but be in high spirits and said yes.

However, on the second day, Li Le was woken up by the sound of rain.

She sat up sleepily, and when she turned to get out of bed, she stepped into a puddle of water.

Her face changed and she immediately retracted her feet.

I thought it was some kind of prank, but when I looked down, I found that the door couldn't stop the water from pouring in.

The water kept flowing through the crack in the door into the room, and the water accumulated in a thin layer, not deep, but almost up to the ankles.

She was stunned, probably sensing a pause in his movements, Mu Changjin, who was sleeping on the side, sat up, hugged her into his arms, and asked with some doubts, "What's wrong?" ”

Li Le pointed to the floor, Mu Changjin took the opportunity to look at it, and came to his senses, a puddle of water was lying there brightly, and he couldn't see it until he was blind.

"Oops, levee!"

Mu Changjin suddenly sat up straight, and hurriedly jumped out of bed, not caring that his boots were already wet, so he put them on and ran out.

But as soon as he opened the door, he was forced back into the house by the heavy rain outside the door.

Even if the two wanted to go out with an umbrella, they were afraid that they would not be able to withstand the rain, so they had no choice but to wait for the rain to stop in the house, and found a few clean towels and clothes to block the door, preventing the water from continuing to pour into the house.

The rain seemed to have no end, as if the sky was about to pour out all the rain, and the rain was pouring down.

After waiting for almost two hours, the rain gradually became smaller, and Mu Changjin Er really couldn't wait, so it was still raining a lot outside, and he still ran in the direction of the embankment.

But when they reached the embankment, they found that a man had arrived there before them.

"Lu County Order?"

Li Le looked at the back a little familiar, hesitated for a long time, stepped forward, and finally shouted with certainty.

Lu Xianling's whole person seemed to be a chicken in soup, standing in place in a daze, as if it were a piece of wood.

Even when he heard someone shouting at him, he didn't react at all, as if he had lost consciousness.

He stood there in a daze, Mu Changjin followed his line of sight, and looked at the embankment that had been washed away a small part of it as expected.

Mu Changjin was silent, and Li Le naturally saw that place, and she sighed.

"Although it is said that this small part has been washed away, don't worry, it can still be repaired after all."

"But how am I going to explain to my people, who already think it's almost finished, and now that the construction is suddenly ten days longer?"

After muttering to himself for a long time, Lu Xianling let out a long sigh and sat down on the ground.

The rain finally became lighter, and Li Le pulled the two of them to the side under the big tree, waiting for the rain to stop.

Half an hour later, when it had ceased to rain, they had regained their way to the embankment, and had stood for only a quarter of an hour, when just as they were about to leave, a common man had already come running and saw that what they had worked so hard to build had been washed away, and sat down on the ground with weak legs.

"How can this be, isn't it almost repaired, and suddenly you have to start all over again?"

The man let out a long sigh and shook his head helplessly.

Li Le wanted to step forward to comfort, but he didn't know where to start, and finally sighed and said nothing.

But I didn't expect this man to quickly tell all the people involved in the repair about this matter.

On the second day, it was as if a belief in everyone's hearts suddenly collapsed, and the speed of everyone's work was slowed down by I don't know how many times.

"This is clearly God's punishment, just after the flood a few days ago, God hasn't lost his temper enough, and now it's continuing."

A man looked at the sky pessimistically, threw the hoe directly into the ground with his hand, and sat down on the ground.

The people around him were also infected by his emotions, and the trace of tiredness in his heart seemed to be infinitely magnified, and they all sat down on the ground, tired and silently resting.

Occasionally, one or two people whispered to each other, but all that was to say that no matter how hard they tried, it would be useless, and it would rain heavily when they were about to fix it.

When Li Le came to deliver something to them, she naturally heard this whispering voice, she pursed her lips, but she didn't know how to comfort her.

"My heart is sick ......"

She frowned slightly, and after she returned, she discussed it with Mu Changjin and came to such a conclusion.

"Heart disease still needs heart medicine, since they are so pessimistic, we need to think of a way, and then they will be happy."

Li Le nodded, if this group of people is not happy, how can they complete the repair of the embankment as soon as possible, and they don't know when the next flood will be, if they can't complete it as soon as possible, in case of another sudden change......

"They feel that no matter how hard they try, they will eventually be played by God, so we might as well give a few counterexamples at the moment to make them feel that man will win the day."

Seeing Li Le's sad face, he couldn't come up with a result after thinking about it for a long time, Mu Changjin smiled and pointed out the most critical point.

"That's a good idea."

Li Le was stunned, and then immediately started to make up stories, and after general revisions and modifications, he finally freed up a few fables that looked like them.

The next day, he ran to find the people with these familiar stories, and when they had rested and gathered together, he immediately began to tell them to the younger and more curious.

She knew that when the children heard the story, they would immediately relay it to others, so that it would soon spread to everyone.

"Don't say anything else, just talk about our flood this time." Li Le seemed to be telling someone else's story, depicting this disaster vividly.

The main point is that although everyone has been severely affected, on the other hand, the benefits of this flood are endless, and as long as everyone works hard and steadily, next year will definitely be a good harvest.

After thinking about it, she pointed out the most crucial point again, which was the construction of this dam.

"What we really have to do now is to prevent it from happening, what if this year it's a flood and next year it's a drought?"

When Li Le said this, everyone was silent.

Indeed, if this dam is not built, if there is a drought, where will they find water?

Some people were indeed moved by her, and their morale was also boosted, and they returned to their previous work.

In the past two or three days, in addition to telling stories to the people, Li Le has to constantly write new stories, which makes her already full life even more busy, and she can't spare time to care about some side things.

So this time, I didn't find out that among the people, in fact, in addition to spreading his story again, there was another rumor.

"Even if we work hard, what's the use, it's still a story after all, and we offended God this time!"

An old woman said to Li Le, who was telling a story, in a panic.

The latter was stunned, "What? ”

"It's all because the official is disrespectful to the real dragon, so Lao Tiancao can lower the punishment, even if we repair all this embankment, I'm afraid God won't let us feel at ease."

The old woman frowned tightly, shook her head, and after thinking about it, her face was very unsightly.

After Li Le returned home, he finally understood what the old woman was talking about.

"It's nonsense!"

After Li Le finished his anger, he was a little helpless, this group of people estimated that they were being used.
