Chapter 56: Reaching the Grassroots

Luo Xiucai's local litigant, far from being the opponent of Liu Dongsheng, an old fritter in officialdom, went straight to the point, and made Luo Guoqi fooled with one move. Because Liu Dongsheng is now in charge of Xiucai, Luo Guoqi has a sense of fear before he is preconceived, and his disadvantage has taken a sharp turn.

Jia Cong's hope for the county exam is big, this Thaksin, but next year at the age of nine will be admitted to Xiucai, he scoffed, Luo Guoqi has personally experienced the science field, so he doesn't believe that Jia Cong has reached such a point at the age of nine, he is not arrogant, Jia Cong has done a problem before, eight shares, he has also searched, the county test is promising, the hospital test is far from enough, if Shiwen is not qualified, Liu Dongsheng will be killed, so, thinking about it, he comforted himself that he still won the battle.

It's just that no matter whether Jia Cong is in the middle or not, with his reputation as "Youyan's No. 1", Jia Cong's reputation has also been played, and he really can't help it.

Xuezheng is not so easy to do, there is a Xuezheng who just reviewed the Zhu scroll and was vague, but the candidate fought back angrily and used his ink scroll and Zhu Juan to publicize it, what happened in the end? This scholar was dismissed directly and had a bad reputation......

Walking out of the wooden house and overlooking the riverbank, Luo Guoqi said in a good voice: "Congratulations to Brother Zili for flying Huang Tengda next year, unexpectedly, in addition to Wanping County, the patrol lord also favors you." ”

"Ashamed, ashamed." Jia Cong said kindly: "The field is difficult, the eighty-year-old is still called a child, there are many people, after the end of the school, not as good as the senior brother in five states and nineteen counties, elegant and elegant, willing to give, and have to learn more from the senior brother." ”

"Hehe......" Although it is autumn, Luo Guoqi still has a fluttering bamboo fan from Xiangfei, and he wants to be demeanor and not temperature, and admires: "Senior Brother Zili is too polite, how is Miss Qin?" When Luo saw it that day, he was shocked, and he still does not forget, how can such a woman be blessed by a child, wine bag and rice bag. ”

"Thanks to my brother's blessing, it's all good." The two are polite, you come and go, and those who don't know think they are brothers.

The house slaves on both sides have some sabre-rattling momentum, they can't talk, they have a simple attitude, not like hypocritical readers.

It is located in the eastern part of Gu'an City, and the terrain slopes slightly to the southeast, and they are on the south bank of the river.

Amazingly, even though the construction of the house has increased the elevation, the riverbed is almost level with the house itself, and of course it is separated by a large distance so that it will not be washed away, but the extent of the siltation can be seen.

Jia Cong's visual measurement, the width of the river in Gu'an, more than twice the width of Dawanping, during which feasible boats, in the summer and autumn rainy season, the river workers walking, carrying, workmanship is extremely inconvenient, not only the sky is cloudy and sunny and troublesome, heavy rain is pouring, the river bank on the ground is also extremely muddy.

Yu Chenglong walked out of the house first, followed by Qin Ye and others, this big man who grabbed the military and political power of Zhili Province, held his head high, faced the wind, squinted to avoid the wind and sand, and pointed to the open space between the river and the embankment: "Jia Zili, this governor has heard that you are smart and versatile, wait and see there, between the embankment and the river, it is rainy and muddy, and it is inconvenient to carry and pass, so will you be safe?" ”

Jia Cong was looking at the place, looking down to think, one thought after another flashed in his mind.

Seeing that he frowned and pondered, without saying a word, he suddenly broke off the branch on the side of the road, and wrote and drew on the land with the branch in his hand: first two points, and then connected into a line.

Pretending to be a ghost and pretending, in the hearts of people who don't like him, there is no doubt that he is so slanderous, Luo Guoqi shook his head in disappointment: "Lord Langzhong, Lord Patrol Press forgive the sin, in the eyes of the students, Jia Cong is also in vain......"

"Whether there is a way or not, it is better than blindly talking about things, some people, the powerful and powerful places are evil, and the road is just for the eyes, and the people who do the work are blamed, and the fire is watched from the other side, which is really evil." Qin Ye is unrelenting, and he is driving people away.

"Luo Daqi, you are too presumptuous!" Yu Jackie Chan flicked his sleeves and scolded, Luo Guoqi is really hated by everyone, and he is too much of a failure to do this, it is because of Jackie Chan that Jia Cong is smart, and Luo Daqi vetoed it, didn't he give him face to the governor?

"Forgive your sins! Students say goodbye! Luo Guoqi retired, because of jealousy, he lost face again, in his opinion, everything was because of Jia Cong, he was not at fault, and he left, An Neng broke his eyebrows and bent his waist to deal with the powerful?

Wang Dacheng, the secretary of the office on the side, seems to have an understanding, but how can he speak? The county magistrates were all queuing, Qin Ye wondered: "Jia Cong is such a smart person on weekdays, why is he so unbearable in front of the governor?" Giving up a good opportunity to be appreciated? Or were you frightened by the Governor-General? It's a child after all......"

Liu Dongsheng was also disappointed.

Just when Jackie Chan was displeased and wanted to dismiss Jia Cong, Li Fengxiang felt that the opportunity had come, and said: "Governor, I think that Jia Cong is thinking about setting up a platform. ”

"Exactly." Jia Cong was neither humble nor arrogant: "Your Excellency, I think that there is only one way to set up a stage. ”

Liu Dongsheng reminded: "The opposite side is the river, how to take such a long distance?" What to use? It means reminding him to give up and find another way.

"Lord Patrol, the Jurchen army of Nurhachi and Huang Taiji fought bravely, do you know that the Jurchens have a kind of wooden tree?" Jia Cong said.

The well-read Liu Dongsheng thought about it: "You mean wooden planks and cowhides? ”

"But what about the pillars on both sides?" Yu Chengchan couldn't help but ask.

"One side can use the embankment, and the other side can use the boat." Jia Cong nodded and said: "The boat can borrow the buoyancy of the water to anchor and fix, which is stronger than the embankment, and it is connected in series with cowhide and wooden planks, and it cannot be broken by non-red-clothed cannons. ”

"Yes, yes." Yu Cheng Chan smiled when he arrived, and immediately ordered Li Zhixian to send someone to do it, he smiled: "Governing the river is the important task of the province, and it is done by the governor himself, Jia Cong can be described as a genius here, Qin Langzhong and Liu Yushi can be described as Bole." In the past, Cao Cao had a son, Cao Chong, who used a boat to weigh the elephant, and Jia Cong could be compared. ”

Qin Ye was overjoyed, this time it was difficult for Jia Cong to be famous if he didn't want to be famous, Jia Cong naturally had to be modest, Yu Chengchan waved his hand and said: "First of all, Li Zhixian will go down to monitor and report to me at any time." On the Yongqing side, there is Dong Futai. Liu Yushi, you should be more careful, in the opinion of the governor, it is not a day's work to govern the river, and you should also go to Bazhou and Zhuozhou. ”

The governors and governors of other regions have the right to govern the prefects and prefects, with the exception of Shuntianfu, which has the same status as the governor. However, if the regions of Shuntianfu and Zhili overlap, what should I do in this situation? The imperial court regulates it, and the governor and the governor discuss and deal with it, and no one can control anyone, because Suncheonfu is an important place in Gyeonggi, and the plaques are all given by the emperor and hung in the capital.

"The lower officials will take care of it." Liu Dongsheng was noncommittal.

To say that the efficiency of the Gu'an County government is really high, there are three adults watching, if you want to be lazy, you can't steal, boats, planks, cowhides have been prepared, yes, feudal society does not allow civilians to commit suicide cows, but cattle will always die of illness and old age, right? It's not a matter at all for the county government, with an order, they can scrape off three layers of the people's land, and it's still a matter of cowhide.

That night, the "box boat" was made, with the permission of the governor, the patrol according to the adult, the students of the Langzhong adult, Li Zhixian and Wang Dacheng said and laughed at him, Wang Dacheng led, Jia Cong stepped on the deck, the boat did not sway, he looked at the boardwalk in front of him, the river workers walked back and forth with difficulty, or carried flowers and willows and civil engineering, or dug up the sediment, sweating like rain, layer by layer control, orderly.

Jia Cong said in his heart: "It's not easy, Senior Sister Qin said that Chen Jingfu's men are bitter, in fact, there is no most bitter, only more bitter, civilians, stove households, army, craftsmen, iron smelting and copper smelters, who will care about their suffering, who will care about their life and death......"

The theories of river governance that he absorbed came from many sources. Pan Jitao of the Ming Dynasty, Shangshu of the Criminal Department (Minister of Justice), is still inevitably attacked by political enemies. Jin Fu of the Qing Dynasty, was attacked and almost died, and there was also a staff member Chen Huang, without Chen Huang, there would be no Jin Fu to keep the glory of the Yellow River, Chen Huang died unjustly in prison: the rabbit died and the dog cooked, and the bird was hidden.

No matter what era, there will be people who stand up for the country and the people, this is a real history, this is a person worth remembering: Chen Huang, a native of Qiantang, Zhejiang during the Kangxi period, and the staff of Jin Fu, the governor of the river, left the "River Defense Statement".

As Jackie Chan said, river control is a long process, can not be achieved overnight, from the overall situation, remote embankments, dams are only for prevention, the root cause is to build reservoirs, afforestation...... However, this one is longer, and far water can't quench the thirst of the near. Jia Cong is not to do everything to build on it, but within his ability, the main task is to learn the craft, at this time, he took advantage of the time, he went on the boat to personally demonstrate the practice of "harnessing water and attacking sand", the county officials, river consuls, Lijia farmers, and craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry have contact, which will become his experience and valuable information.

At night, the firewood under the dam is as bright as the bright day, the governor has his own line, Wang Dacheng is very good at coming to things, and he persuades him to drink: "Gu'an's father is grateful to Lord Langzhong and Jia Gongzi, come and come, Gongzi drank this cup again." ”

Jia Cong couldn't refuse, he was already half drunk and half awake, waved his hand out, washed his face with the river water, and quietly returned to Teacher Qin, in the cabin, Qin Ye said solemnly: "Liu Yushi and Governor Yu have a dispute." ”

"What is the reason?"

"Take credit." Qin Ye admonished: "Liu Dongsheng is the imperial historian, he took the lead in the recital, and he was not arrogant, and dragged out your river control plan and sent it to the Beijing Division. When the governor heard this, he was furious, and the two attacked each other...... Even though there is a shadow of you in this matter, but you don't do your business, you better pretend not to know, no, you just don't know. ”

"The teacher is overkill, and the students know when to be in the limelight and when not to be in the limelight." Jia Cong drank a few cups of tea, and the wine had already woken up: this level of struggle, he could only listen and watch now.

"I'm not worried about you, you go back overnight and finish a hundred eight-strand essays." Qin Ye smiled bitterly: "Don't blame me, if you want to get true knowledge, you have to work hard, the teacher is not like that, and, young man, drink less wine." ”

It is impossible for Jia Cong not to have a headache at all, today Baguwen, tomorrow Baguwen, it is the same for whoever changes, now when he sees Baguwen, he wants to vomit.

Qin Tong, Sun Fu, and Long Aotian led the carriage and sent him back to the city.

Luo Guoqi didn't go far, he originally wanted to see the joke, but when he heard the house slave say that Jia Cong had almost become the center, he was so angry that he couldn't speak.

In the small town not far away, Yu Biao sneered: "I'll just say that he doesn't have good fruit to eat." ”

"Can that Jia Cong win? How do we return to the Holy Heavens? Captain Chu asked.

"This Jia Gongzi is extremely smart, and he still has a chance to win, long live the master, he will naturally return truthfully."

Jia Cong entered the wing room of the courtyard in the east of the city and fell asleep, at this time Qin Keqing was still awake, came in to greet him, and said hurriedly: "Why is there such a heavy smell of wine?" You don't care. ”

Sun Fu and Long Aotian were aggrieved, and Qin Keqing was dissatisfied: "That's it, I'll take care of him." ”
