How much land does your family have, carry out the policy of returning more and making up less, first collect it according to five dollars per mu, and then spend how much you buy and how much you use, because of what you use, and finally post notices in the ancestral shrines of each village to inform the people that the excess money will be returned. ”

Then according to the difference in each person's work, an average value is taken, and the excess is compensated with the amount of money for each work, and the less work is paid to make up for it. We are all mixed and uneven, and only absolute fairness can convince everyone. ”

"Okay, Jiang Wei is very thoughtful, I think I will do what he says." Patriarch Wan is a curious baby, Jiang Wei's suggestion has nothing to say and was directly approved by him.

"So what should you do if you encounter any emergencies? All ethnic groups act collectively, there must be a lot of noise, are we a guard team to guard? ”

"It is natural that five or six men of great prestige shall be selected from all tribes to supervise the work, and those who have cheated and maliciously sabotaged their work will be deducted from their work on the same day. If there is a malicious troublemaker, call me. ”

"Okay, that's a good suggestion, so do we want experienced river workers?"

"This is a canal, as long as you don't dig a big hole in the earth, nothing will happen, and at the same time we have to do a good job in the maintenance of the canal, every day we must select volunteer patrolmen from each tribe, patrol along the canal, to prevent someone from maliciously destroying or drowning people and other emergencies, if it is a heavy rain, we must cut off the water source in time to prevent flooding of crops, and at the same time we must build reservoirs in the abandoned wasteland of each village, which is used to raise fish or something on weekdays, and if the water level of the Bahe River drops in the dry season, we will use it to irrigate the fields. I've marked it on the diagram so you can take a look. ”

"Jiang Wei is really meticulous, how do you feel when you see his plan? Give a word"

"No problem, we'll gather all the clansmen to discuss when we go back."

"Okay, in this case, everyone is dispersed, and now that the time is about to be slack, the construction should start as soon as possible, if the land is frozen, it will be troublesome."

"Yes, without further ado, let's all go back and prepare."

A group of people began to disperse, and each went back to the village to gather the people, Jiang Wei also returned home in a hurry at this time, and saw him enter the door Jiang's mother was busy: "I left you a meal, hurry up and eat,"

"I'll eat it later, where's my dad?"

"The rat has a big hole in the wall of the backyard, and he's getting some yellow mud and is tinkering with it."

"Dad, call the big head, let's go to the ancestral hall for a meeting."

"Meeting? What's the meeting? If I go, it's in vain, you just have to go. ”

"I initiated this meeting, you have to give your son this face, all the men must be present."

"Oh well"

When the father and son of the Jiang family arrived at the ancestral hall, a large number of people had gathered here, Jiang Wei's current prestige in the clan was growing, and everyone was willing to give him this face, but seeing this scene, the Jiang patriarch said with some taste: "Jiang Wei, what is the matter with you bringing everyone here?" ”

"Yes, we're still busy, and if it's for the sake of that thousand acres of land, I won't plant it."

Jiang Wei understood this sentence and glared: "Don't give anything for nothing, you deserve to be poor." I can tell you that you don't want it in the future, if you want it, don't ask for it. After collecting and weeding, they divided him into ninety-two points, regardless of whether the household was large or small, and agreed to draw lots to decide whose land was where. Don't leave it behind. ”

"That's it? I don't want it anyway. ”

"This is just the beginning, we are not talking about this matter, for many years, our people in Bayuan have always stayed on the verge of starvation, the reason is because the tax is too heavy, and the land here can not store water, resulting in a serious reduction in food production. There is a good saying, poor is thinking about change, these days I have actually investigated the situation of this generation with Datou, and I have perfected a Bayuan irrigation map. It's farm time, and all the men must be present to carry out the construction of the canal. ”

Hearing Jiang Wei's words, someone shouted dissatisfiedly: "Jiang Wei, you are too whimsical, don't say that we dig for a winter, even if we dig for seven or eight years, we may not be able to dig up Jiang Village." And the water level doesn't necessarily come up. ”

Jiang Wei glared at him and said: "Jiang Erleng, you talk a lot, no one treats you as a dumb person if you don't speak, can I not know how many people there are in our village?" I have already contacted the patriarchs of the He Shi Jianzhang Wan and other clans, and they have already seen my Bayuan irrigation map, and have promised to persuade the young people in the clan to start the construction work. In this operation, the entire Bayuan will participate. If anyone does not participate in the construction of the canal in the future, don't even think about watering an acre of land. Of course, except for those who are rich, there are a few people who claim to be smart, you don't have to participate, and when we fools fix it, you can pay for water. ”

"Jiang Wei, what you said is feasible, but do you have a specific operation method?"

"Fourth uncle, look here." As he spoke, Guoqing hung up the pictures he had drawn, pointed to the pictures on the map and said: "This is the floor plan of the entire Bayuan, which clearly marks every alley, every ditch, how long and deep. The difficulty of the construction, and then each clan must nominate a few respected supervisors to prevent anyone from being lazy. It also deals with some tricky issues. The people of this village do not supervise their own village, and they will all be transferred to other villages for supervision, and I am the general responsibility for this operation, and the patriarchs of each ethnic group are the specific executors. All craftsmen, such as stonemasons, blacksmiths, smiths, and carpenters, enjoy special treatment and start work as soon as everything is in order. ”

This will come quickly, and it will disperse quickly, and everyone is not very optimistic about Jiang Wei's action, because Ba Yuan seems to be harmonious, but in fact, everyone has a small ninety-nine in their hearts, and it is better to fly separately when the disaster comes.

However, the poor and the thinking of change made most people approve of this action, and the Chang'an order was declared to build a canal, and this winter can also be exempted from forced labor, which is the benefit of agriculture, all except for the emperor's private affairs and national affairs, to make way for agriculture. After all, the people live on food.

At noon, there was a heated discussion in the entire Bayuan, and several patriarchs had reached a consensus and submitted the documents for the construction of the Bayuan Canal to Chang'an Ling.

Not long after Chang An Ling came back from Jiang Village, he looked at the things that Patriarch He brought, and said with a smile: "Do you think you can succeed in repairing the canal this time?" ”

"Sure, Jiang Wei has already thought about everything."

"I'll just say how can you have such great ability, it turns out that it's still the handiwork of this kid, so there's nothing to say.
