But in case of flooding, the levee can easily be washed down, so I thought we would simply build a dam without a dam and move the canal two miles upstream, where the water flow is turbulent and the river water drop is large, we only need to smoothly lay a layer of boulders on the riverbed to naturally raise the water level, and we don't have to worry about the flood breaking the levee. What do you think? ”

"I think it's feasible, as long as we can do it once and for all, isn't it just to dig two more miles of canals? Why are there so many of us, it's a matter of ten days and half a month. ”

We also agree that "those who have not had a little vanity, and these patriarchs naturally want to be remembered by future generations, and if they can complete this work, it is impossible for future generations to write their deeds into the genealogy." This is a supreme honor, they are not emperors, and they can force the historians to revise history by themselves, they are all closed coffins, and their life's merits and demerits need to be written by others.

"Guys, work hard, hey, hey,......"

A team of people who were walking by the river subconsciously stopped, and the leading man suddenly turned out to be Li Jiancheng, the crown prince of the Great Jin Dynasty, and he looked at the man beside him with a curious face and said, "Chang'an Ling, where is the sound of pulling the horn coming from?" ”

"Did Your Highness mean the sound of the trumpet in front?"

"Yes"

"That's from Bayuan on the other side of the river, and they're building the embankment."

Li Jiancheng was stunned and said: "Bayuan built a river embankment? Don't they have a natural mountain? Why build a river embankment? ”

"They have a natural boundary mountain, but it is precisely because of this natural boundary mountain that Bayuan guards the Bahe River and looks at the river and sighs, they have no way to irrigate, they can only guard the barren land, this is not this time Jiang Wei in Jiang Village proposed to build a river embankment, chisel through the boundary mountain, has passed the resolution of the entire Bayuan, and is now in full swing."

"Oh, let's go check it out, too." Li Jiancheng said and turned to the soldiers and said, "You are waiting here now." ”

"Yes"

Li Jiancheng said and Chang'an ordered to get off the horse, with two entourages, dressed up and walked along the river embankment upstream, and before he had gone far, he saw a group of villagers, holding Tieqiu, Pickaxe and other things, and hurriedly ran towards the river.

Chang'an Ling hurriedly stopped a passing citizen and said, "Brother, what are you doing here?" ”

"There's a fight ahead, and we're here to help."

"Fighting? Who fought with whom? ”

"The people of Bayuan have fought with our people in Shangwan. There's no time, I'm going to help. The man shook off Chang'an Ling's hand as he spoke, and hurriedly ran towards the river.

Hearing that there was a fight in front, Chang'an Ling was busy: "Your Highness, let's leave quickly, and then I will bring the third class of officials to deal with it, you can't go to this kind of place." ”

"It's okay, I'm very interested in Jiang Wei, bold and thoughtful, let's go and take a look."

"But you're safe."

Li Jiancheng shook his head with a smile and said, "Let's go see what the situation is first, if there is danger, why don't they run away, they can't catch up, right?" ”

"Oh well"

The group walked quickly towards the river, and from afar they saw that the crowd was gathering here, and there was a tendency to gather more and more, and more than a dozen embarrassed young people were being helped up by the villagers in Shangwan at this time.

On the other side, the Jiang patriarch's hair was scattered, his clothes were dirty, and he was protected by Jiang Qing, it was obvious that there was a fight here just now, and several middle-aged men in Shangwan Village were looking at the villagers of Bayuan with a worried face. In front of them, there were seven or eight old men with white beards, staring at the villagers of Bayuan with disgruntled expressions.

Shangwan and Bayuan face each other across the river, but Bayuan is a well-known rabble, if you want money, you don't have money, you don't have anything, Shangwan is different, they are close to the Bahe River, irrigation is convenient, fertile fields are numerous, naturally look down on the people of Bayuan, and now Bayuan actually ran to their land to build a dam Isn't this Tai Sui's head breaking ground?

So they brought a group of young people to find fault, although Patriarch Jiang was as weak as ever and wanted to calm things down, but they were all people from various villages, and what they wanted was deterrence, so it was naturally impossible to let Patriarch Jiang go, and they pulled at him for a while, and the leading patriarch gave Patriarch Jiang two slaps.

Jiang Qing, who was accompanying him this time, was unwilling, and there could be no contradictions within Bayuan, but outsiders were bullied to the head, so naturally they couldn't be indifferent, so they started fighting, and as a result, more than a dozen young men from Shangwan Village were put to the ground without even holding on to a single round.

Immediately afterwards, the Jiang patriarch was afraid of making a big deal and dissuaded Jiang Qing, and the people of Shangwan Village also rushed over, and now the people of Bayuan also got the letter and chased after them with things. The construction of water canals is the road to the strength of the entire Bayuan, and whoever causes trouble at this time will be attacked by the group.

Patriarch He is in a hurry, Hejiacun has always been the representative of Bayuan, and several middle-aged men on the opposite side dared to slap Patriarch Jiang because Patriarch Jiang Cun was too small and too weak, but Patriarch He They had to have some scruples.

Seeing the middle-aged man led by Patriarch He, he said with an annoyed face: "He Yu, you are finally here, which one of your clans is this kid?" Look at how he beat these young people in our village, do you want an explanation? ”

"Confess? You guys in Shangwan Village just can't see the good of others, what is it that our Bayuan is building a dam in the river to hinder you? Tell you that you are all light, and the matter of our dam construction has been reported like the Chang'an Order. He has agreed, and you have grown a few heads to dare to stop it. ”

"Ridiculous, that's the situation that the master doesn't understand the Bahe River, if you raise the water level again, you will be fine if you dominate the original boundary mountain, but after the water level is raised, once it reaches the flood season, it will flood our Shangwan Village. Why don't you build the dam below and go to our territory to repair it, isn't this deliberately finding fault? An old man with a white beard trembled angrily, and shouted angrily at Patriarch He. It's a shame that he doesn't know what touching porcelain is, otherwise Patriarch He would be in trouble.

Patriarch He was about to speak, Jiang Wei rushed over from the other side of the river, glanced at Patriarch Jiang, and suddenly said with a gleam on his face: "Who the beat this?" Stand up for me? ”

"Where did you come from, didn't you see that I was talking to your He patriarch?" The middle-aged man from Shangwan Village glared at him and wanted to scare Jiang Wei back.

An acquaintance tugged at the middle-aged man's arm and said, "This is Jiang Wei from Jiang Village." ”

"Jiang Wei?" The middle-aged man subconsciously swallowed his saliva when he heard this name and said, "Is it Jiang Wei who tied up the King of Qi to blackmail the imperial court?" ”
