Chapter 852: Straight to the Holy Hearing
He forced his somewhat restless mood and beckoned the people to work, first laying thick planks on the flat frame of the cliff and making a solid platform out, and then the main point. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
His plan was to build the water-scooping cart on the platform. From here to the bottom, the surface of the pond is about ten zhang high, and the waterwheel must borrow manpower or animal power to walk.
Then the reservoir should be repaired at the top, and an aqueduct will be built outside the pond to connect it to the land along the slope.
"Li Yin, it turned out to be a water diversion." He thought so in his heart, it turned out that there are fixed numbers in the dark, and a random name also implies mysterious news.
He didn't do this for fame or status, but he didn't want to disappoint Cui Ying. Li Yin knew that even if it was her only big wish to restore her previous status again, maybe this was what she could do for her, and he had to do it.
There is also the place of Yinglongling, he doesn't want to let this place be dry, he has to do it.
In the evening, Li Yin dragged his somewhat tired body back to his small courtyard.
Originally, there was a house that belonged to him in the backyard of the county government. After Ma Xun resigned, the house had already been vacated by the new county order, but Li Yin never moved. He opened the courtyard door and remembered what Yahuan had said to him, and couldn't help but prick up his ears to listen.
Li Yin heard a chirping sound, coming from a wooden box in front of the window. He walked over and picked up the wooden box, knowing what two little beings looked like. They huddled in a corner of the wooden box, and there was a momentary commotion after being disturbed.
Li Yin took the wooden box, opened the door again, and went into the hall and lit the lamp.
He first saw a table on the ground, and a small stool was placed on one side, on which was the leftover meal of the master and servant, and the used dishes and chopsticks.
He found a place to put the little wooden box, and thanked them for not being housekeepers, and they didn't have the habit of tidying up the dishes and chopsticks, so that he could come home and see the scene.
He stood at the table, guessing which side Cui Ying had sat on, and then sat down on the stool across from her.
Then he got up again and drew the wine, which had been given to him by his colleagues when they congratulated him on his ascension, and he had not touched it once.
He took two cups, poured them out of his own, and filled the other cup with it. Then he held up his own, and shouted at the other side, "Madame, please!" Li Yin is not even afraid of wine, but what drought is he afraid of! The villain will not disappoint Madame! ”
After that, he poured a large glass of wine down his neck as he had never done before.
After a while, the courtyard door was gently pushed open, and the village girl who was across the courtyard leaned in last time, and her parents asked her to bring some food and come to see Li Xianling. They all know what a bright future it is for their relatives to climb to the county order.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, she saw through the wide open door and saw that Master Li had fallen on the table. So I hurried in.
She often went to work in the field with her parents, and had the strength to help the drunken Master Li up from the table, and then help him lie down on the bed. The quilt was fluffy and fluffy, and she lifted it to cover him.
At this time, Master Li suddenly sobered up for a moment, took the village girl's hand, looked at her with a hazy gaze, and said, "You are not her, you are her...... Don't dare to be wrong again...... Ant...... It doesn't ...... even if you drink alcohol Go back. ”
He was so sick that he bowed down on the bed in great pain and waved her away.
……
The time for sowing is almost past the time for sowing, and the counties of Qianzhou are still busy sowing.
In order to be different from the Lu clan who secretly made fun of himself with Ma Xun, he called this one the new Lu clan, and the old one did not go to the new one.
He was busy running around the counties, pulling the county magistrates of each county to their ground to inspect the situation of the civilian servants carrying water to water the ground. He was always in a bad mood, his temper flares up at every turn, and he didn't show any mercy when he scolded them.
A light rain did not fall, and the mountains and fields were full of civilian servants who carried their burdens and fetched water from the river more than ten miles away. They carried the water into the ground, and some people took the ladle and sprinkled a few drops into each of the pits of the soil that had been planted like oil.
Because the area of the land had nearly doubled, the seeds in each county were not enough, so Lord Thorn Shi ordered the Qianzhou warehouse to take out grain seeds. The hasty order replied in embarrassment, "My lord, you have to leave some surplus wealth......
Gao Shen said, "What is Yu Fu doing?" If you have seedlings, you won't have to worry about growing, and you won't be missing next year, send it quickly! ”
He said to the county commanders who were traveling with him, "Look at Duwei County!" What kind of color is that! Hey, the old county has let the newly incorporated county go down, let me say what you are good at! ”
A county magistrate whispered, "My lord is eccentric, most of the time in Duwei, how many times have you come to us?" Even Mrs. Thorn Shi lives in Duwei, how can Duwei County be bad! ”
Gao Xianxing shouted, "This shows even more that officials attach importance to the role, you don't work hard, you dare to compare!" ”
The county commander hurriedly said, "Lord Thorn Shi has wronged his position, my county has seized the opportunity to plant seeds in those low-lying places of the mountains first, and my lord looks there, not all the seedlings are drilled!" "Lord Thorn's face is a little better.
What satisfied him the most was Li Yin, the internal guard who went out of his house. This person has a clear mind and knows how to hide private affairs for his boss. Li Yin knew about the two Lu clans, but he had been covering up for himself, and several times his wife either sent people or personally went to Duwei County to deliver things, but he relied on this Li Yin to do things, and he didn't let his wife catch up in one step.
In particular, his method of drawing water from under Yinglong Ridge is simply a stroke of genius! It not only saves a lot of manpower, but also improves the irrigation efficiency.
He went to see it first, and there was a tall animal-powered waterwheel on the ridge, and another halfway up the cliff. The waterwheel at the half-waist is human, climb the soft ladder from the cliff to the platform there, first carry the water to the wooden pond here to make a relay, and then the waterwheel on the top will carry the water from here, so that the water is lifted up from the pool ten feet deep.
And on the Yinglong Ridge, there is a large stone pool, with a sluice gate for releasing water, the pool is connected to the canal built down with ashlar stones, twists and turns, not only the whole Yinglong Ridge is watered, but also leads to another pool under the ridge, and the civil servants in the distance carry water from here, saving a distance of ten miles.
Looking at the counties of Qianzhou, perhaps only Duwei County is a bright spot. And Duwei County just takes Yinglongling as the highlight, and the crops grow the best, which is pleasing to the eye.
Two days ago, Fan Boshan, the Shaoqing of Zongzheng Temple, had just returned to Chang'an, and he took Fan to Yinglongling to let him see the gratifying situation of drought resistance there.
Gao Xianxing knew that Lord Fan was the uncle of Gao Jun's third wife, Fan Ying, and he believed that from the relationship between Gao Jun and Fan Ying, Fan Boshan would truthfully convey the situation in Yinglongling to Shengting.
When he accompanied Lord Fan to go, there were not so many people on the ridge, but Li Xianling was there, and there was also Mrs. Cui Shi.
Gao Xianxing specially signaled his wife to Lord Fan, and let him see that the drought resistance in Qianzhou is not divided between inside and outside, and between high and low.
What Gao Xianxing didn't know was that as soon as Fan Boshan arrived in Yinglongling, he recognized who Li Yin was, don't look at the extra scar on his face. Li Yin was a little embarrassed at the time, but Mrs. Thorn Shi immediately reminded Lord Fan in private not to call out the name "Li Mi" in front of Thorn Shi.
