CHAPTER XX

Hearing Wu Laosuo's question, Yao Chonghua turned his head and looked at him inexplicably, he knew that people at this time should not have understood the importance of forests to maintain water and soil, and they didn't even think that they had this need to maintain water and soil.

On the entire land of China, although people have been multiplying, Yao Chonghua guessed that the total population is only more than one million, not yet tens of millions of orders, because the population base is small, the ability to destroy nature is relatively small, even if people at this time do not need to deliberately maintain water and soil, the loss rate of water and soil will not be very high.

However, Wu Laosu understood what he had just said about the preservation of water and soil, and he couldn't help but wonder, could this person think about it for so long?

Seeing Yao Chonghua staring at him without speaking, Wu Laosuo became angry, "What do you say, what are you watching me do?" ”

Yao Chonghua thought about it and answered, "The root system of the big tree is very huge, and it is very deep, it will be suddenly fixed, when it rains heavily, it is difficult for the water to wash away the soil, so that the soil will not be washed away with the flowing water into sediment, but the rainwater will be stored in the soil, and the root system of the big tree can also absorb the rainwater in the soil and maintain its own sufficient water and abundant growth." ”

"So a big tree can lock in water?" Wu Laosu asked again.

Yao Chonghua nodded.

He asked, "Then if the flood comes, can the trees also reduce the flooding?" ”

Yao Chonghua was shocked, this old man was amazing, he could really think of things so far ago, he thought about the fact that trees can indeed suppress the flooding, but according to the actual situation of this era, trees have not been cut down too much, but the number of floods and the magnitude are still huge, it may not be just the reason for the trees, "I don't know." ”

At this time, Dayi came out of the house, just overheard their conversation, and said to Wu Laosuo, "Floods and droughts are natural disasters, what does it have to do with trees, but the words that the little lord of Chonghua said at the gate yesterday, natural disasters are unstoppable, but man-made disasters can be avoided, and it went into my heart, and then I heard Wu Zhu say, you are the little lord of Chonghua in Longshan, and the method of boiling water you did before did save many lives of our tribe." ”

"The leader of Dayi has won the prize, and the method of boiling water has an inhibitory effect on the spread of diseases after the disaster, but it cannot be completely eradicated." Yao Chonghua took a look, Qin Buxuan, who was standing behind Dayi, and asked them, "Has the matter of the rule of law been discussed?" ”

Dayi replied: "Lord Qin Buxu did tell us about the knowledge of the legal system implemented by the great leader of Gaotao in recent years, as well as the relevant details of the rule of law, but whether it should be implemented in our tribe, we have to discuss it ourselves, after all, this is not a trivial matter, you give us a little time, and we will give an answer as soon as possible." ”

Now the tribal alliance system is implemented between the tribes of Dongyi, not the dictatorship of Gaotao, the concept of the country has not yet been formed, the leaders of each tribe have the highest decision-making power for the situation of their tribes, Gaotao wants to implement the rule of law, can only lobby, can not be compulsory, similar to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, which school can persuade the monarch, can move the monarch, then the monarch of that country, what kind of thinking to govern the country.

Yao Chonghua nodded, since they want time, then give them time, as long as this time is not indefinite.

In the evening, after Dayi left, Qin Buxu said to Yao Chonghua that it was not very clear to implement the rule of law in Youqiang, and Dayi was still acceptable to most of the content of the code, but there were also some strong reactions, among them, the leader of Dayi was most dissatisfied with the five religions defined by Gaotao in the code.

The code finalized by Gaotao this time is the evolution of his previous idea of combining benevolence and the rule of law, so the code also reflects the idea of combining Germany and France. Among them, there are five teachings, namely father's righteousness, mother's kindness, brother's friend, brother's respect, and son's filial piety.

The combination of morality and law, anything that violates morality, the law will punish it, but in combination with the actual situation, the current Dayi, was abandoned by his parents in the mountains and forests, and had no brothers, and Chang Yi was combined for a few years, and did not give birth to a child, and these five religions are simply a huge irony for him, and then use the morality of these family ethics to restrain Dayi, Qin Buxuan said that after the violent dissatisfaction, Dayi's choice was silence.

As the so-called family has a scripture that is difficult to read, don't look at the current Dayi is the world's first archery talent, all hunters will worship it, but it is not much happiness, but the code formulated by Gaotao is not only aimed at Dayi, but is applicable to the general public, so it cannot be easily changed just for Dayi.

After a few days of waiting for the clay of the water tank to be fixed, Yao Chonghua helped the Youqian clan make charcoal, renovate the kiln, repair the well, and taught them some methods of raising wild animals in captivity, which was very popular throughout the Youqian clan.

Wu Laosuo originally came to find Dayi, but now he follows Yao Chonghua when he has anything to do, looking at what this little doll is doing? By the way, ask him, the principle of production, and even put aside Fang Hui, the little apprentice and grandson he wanted to recognize, and his love for Yao Chonghua has been rising.

Fang Hui felt that it was good for Wu Laosu to ignore him, he didn't say anything for a day, just sat quietly from a distance and watched them, sometimes Dayi was free, he ran to Dayi's side and asked him about archery skills.

However, Dayi doesn't have much free time, and he has to be pestered by Qin Buxuan every day, Qin Buxuan is determined, he must not live up to Gaotao's hopes for him, and he also believes that his determination can impress Dayi.

Finally came to the day when the kiln was about to open the water tank, everyone from Longshan looked calm, but the poor people, whether they were in the prime of life or women and children, all gathered in the poor kiln factory, Yao Chonghua admired Wu Zhu Jiu and Wu Laosuo, they were so old, they could still get up so early.

Wu Laosu said with a smile: "I can't sleep when I'm old, I slept late last night because of excitement, and I couldn't sleep at all in the morning, so I got up, and now we are ready to open the kiln?" What else is there to prepare? ”

Yao Chonghua said, "I'm already ready to finish, I'm ready to open the kiln, and I ask Wu Zhu to ask God for us." ”

Dayi also waited in the kiln factory early in the morning, he didn't know much about the kiln, he grew up in the mountains, and no one taught him to burn the kiln, if necessary, he exchanged the wild things in the mountains, until he became the big leader of the poor clan, and then he began to contact some, "Since the little master of Chonghua said that it is ready, then let's start, please old witch wish." ”

This time, Yao Chonghua did not open the kiln in person, but was carried out by the people of the poor tribe, and was selected to be the eldest disciple of Dayi, Fengmeng and Lang, both of whom had been explained by Yao Chonghua earlier, and then did it step by step according to Yao Chonghua's method, and did not come out of the kiln all of a sudden.

Then there was a long wait, but everyone was reluctant to leave, so they gathered outside the kiln factory and chatted.

The process of firing the water tank is a little simple, and he didn't participate much in the previous preparation process, although it was also as simple to open the kiln, anyway, he didn't understand, there were Wu Zhu Jiu and Wu Lao Suo watching, he thought it was okay, but he also knew that in fact, Yao Chonghua was busy except for the day when he made the water tank model, and the rest of the time was to take his clansmen and slaves to dig pits and set fires, and look at the wells to repair the sheepfold, but he didn't do anything serious about the water tank, not only Dayi, but also the poor clansmen couldn't believe it, The big water tank they saw in Shangong's family, the big water tank they were looking forward to, can it be made?

Qin Buxuan looked at Dayi's unbelievable appearance and said, "Don't worry, Leader Dayi, there were many people who questioned the approach of the little master Chonghua when he was in Longshan at that time, but it turned out that the little master of Chonghua was fine." ”

Dayi sighed, "It's good that the little master of Chonghua can help us, whether it will be successful or not depends on how God treats us poor." ”

The old witch wished the old man a pious Xiangtian, "More than ten years ago, the clan was almost wiped out because of the war, but God also brought you back to the poor clan, indicating that the poor clan is favored by God, and every time we encounter a calamity, God will bless our descendants endlessly, and this time, it was sent again, and the little master of Chonghua supported us, so we will definitely succeed." ”

Puzzled, he asked, "I know at a glance that the water tank is a good thing that can benefit all people, but do you need to be so nervous?" Do you need it so much? ”

Wu Zhu Jiu was dismissive of Wu Laosu's question, "You will also have floods there, but the severity is not as serious as ours, and we will often have droughts, the water tank can hoard water, which is of great significance for the continuation of our lives, plus our tribe used to live by hunting, and the food was exchanged outside, we also want to raise some, hunting back game, we usually have to drink water, game also needs water, how can we raise it without water hoarding?" ”

This Fang Dayi should also be reconciled: "Yes, where is it like you? What method was used for the water this time? It always makes us victim. ”

Wu Laosuo pouted: "I don't know how to treat water, how do I understand." ”

"How can you not understand, you just don't want to say it."

"What's the use of saying that? Anyway, no one listened, and what was said was in vain. ”

"Hey~" Dayi sighed and fell silent.

After a while, Yao Chonghua walked over to Dayi's side, saw that there was some silence in the atmosphere here, turned around again, and came to Fang Hui's side.

Somehow, he always felt that this young man was like him, but obviously the two of them didn't look like each other, and their tempers were even more different, Yao Chonghua was more relaxed and gentle towards outsiders, but Fang Hui was not only enthusiastic about Dayi, but he didn't say a word to other people, if it wasn't for Yao Chonghua himself taking the initiative to talk to him, he wouldn't have said it.

"Why did you follow Lao Suo? Since he didn't want to be his grandson or his apprentice, why didn't he leave. ”

Fang Hui looked at Yao Chonghua silently, staring at him for a long time, as if he was carefully studying Yao Chonghua's different pupils, and as if he wanted to revisit what Chonghua's eyes saw, "Your eyes are so good-looking." ”

This topic turned a little fast, Yao Chonghua didn't react,

Fang Hui replied to himself: "He saved my life, I must give him back." ”

"But I remember you said before that your life was in danger because of him, so don't you owe each other?"

"But I'm not here to save him, he's here to save me."

This makes Yao Chonghua confused, what does this mean? Isn't it all about saving people anyway? "That's all?"

"The old man also said that he knew Dayi, and I wanted to worship Dayi as a teacher, and I needed his recommendation."

"Which of the two reasons is more important?"

"Both are important."
