"My lord, please forgive me for being blunt, this is not easy to do......" After Yang Zhen told the people in the Jinyi Wei Thousand Households about his promise to Luo Chengzhang the next day, Zeng Zhitan said with a look of embarrassment on his face. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoIn fact, he knew very well in his heart that this thing was not only not easy to do, but it was simply impossible to do.

Seeing that Yang Zhen frowned slightly, Zeng Zhitan explained slightly: "Don't dare to hide it, after this tree caused accidents on many ships, not only the people, but also the government have thought about getting rid of this scourge many times. However, after a few thoughts and attempts, there is still nothing to do with it, so it can only be delayed until today......" In the end, he sighed helplessly.

Yang Zhen thought about it carefully, and it was indeed the case. If it weren't for the fact that this was an extremely difficult problem, how could Hangzhou, a city located at the entrance and exit of the canal, and at the same time have the best shipping and commerce in the prefectures and counties of the Ming Dynasty, have not made any move to dredge this waterway?

Seeing that Yang Zhen was also embarrassed, Cai Yingyang on the side couldn't help but speak: "Why are you like this?" It's not a difficult task, as long as a few lumberjacks are sent to cut down the tree with a sharp axe and hacksaw? ”

When he said this, he was greeted with another wry smile from everyone present. Fortunately, everyone knew that Cai Yingyang was Yang Zhen's cronies, and they didn't dare to offend him, so they didn't show the intention of ridiculing. But even so, Cai Yingyang still sensed something and asked, "What, did I say something wrong?" ”

"If this matter is really so easy to solve, the government will not delay for several years." Zeng Zhitan smiled bitterly: "Cut off the body of the tree on the water, what should you do underwater?" And once there is no sign reminder above, the passing ships don't even know where there is such a hidden danger, which will only bring more trouble and danger to Hangzhou. ”

Indeed, if it were only for the present, ships could have avoided it by virtue of their familiarity with the place and their experience in sailing. But once the tree trunk is gone, then this hidden danger becomes a mine, and it is even more difficult for ships to avoid the danger under the water.

Yang Zhen naturally understood this truth, nodded lightly and said, "Yes, if you want to get rid of this scourge, you must root this tree and completely remove it from the bottom of the water." ”

"Yes, it is precisely because this is an almost impossible thing that the government and the people have not dared to start, so that this tree has been blocked from the Fengshan Water Gate. Unexpectedly, this time someone actually asked you to do this, you are incompetent, and you can't really help. Zeng Zhitan said with some apprehension and shame.

In this regard, Yang Zhen didn't take it too seriously, and waved his hand and said: "Our Jinyiwei doesn't have such an obligation, you can't help it, so naturally I won't blame you." However, this may not be impossible, so I will wait until I think about it carefully and go to the local area to check it out. ”

"I believe that with the power of an adult, even a powerful prisoner like Feng Bao can fight down, and such a small tree will naturally be difficult for you." Zeng Zhitan hurriedly echoed as if flattering, but he didn't have the confidence to speak.

Yang Zhen was worried not only about his subordinates, but also Luo Yueying in the boudoir. After learning that her father raised such a problem, she complained unconsciously: "Daddy is really, what problem can't be solved, it has to be difficult to make such a problem." He doesn't cut trees, nor does he know how to solve this kind of problem, which even the boaters of the Cao Gang can't solve......

Looking at her young lady's puffing resentment, Lan Qin laughed unconsciously on the side: "Miss, although you haven't married yet, your heart has already pounced on Yang Gongzi." No wonder the old saying always says that the water spilled by the daughter who gets married, now I understand. ”

"You ......" was teased by her sister like this, Luo Yueying realized that her words and deeds were indeed a little too biased towards Ailang, and she didn't feel very shy, so she couldn't help but rush towards Lanqin coquettishly: "Hmph, you dare to say that about me, look how I clean you up!" He went to take care of the itch of the piano with his teeth and claws, and scared the most itchy lanqin so much that he hurriedly hid to the side, and at the same time kept begging for mercy in his mouth.

After laughing like this for a while, the second daughter quieted down, and Luo Yueying raised her eyebrows again, thinking carefully to see if she could come up with a good idea.

This thought is a few days. Rao is Luo Yueying Bingxue is smart, and she has certain attainments in both finances and other aspects, but she has never had a clue about this issue. Especially when she thought of the huge consequences that could come from cutting off tree trunks above the water, it was even more difficult for her to find a proper solution.

However, Lanqin, who had experience in planting flowers, saw the embarrassed appearance of her young lady, and held back a stupid way that seemed feasible: "Miss, no matter the grass and trees, as long as they are separated from the soil, they will die, why don't we start from this point?" ”

"What do you mean...... Dig this tree out from under the river? Luo Yueying was a little surprised.

Lanqin nodded slightly: "Although this method is a bit troublesome, it should be feasible as long as you try, right?" ”

"But...... The tree is not old, but how deep must its roots be...... It's underwater again, can anyone really dive so deep, for so long, and then dig a tree out of the mud at the bottom of the river? Luo Yueying asked in disbelief.

"This ...... I don't know. Maybe those masters in our Cao gang who are familiar with water can have this ability......" Lanqin was asked like this, and he didn't feel a little vague, and he also felt that his method seemed to be a little unreliable.

"Think about it again, if there is really no other better way, you can go and pass the news to Erlang and see if he can let the people in the gang go into the water to try." Luo Yueying finally said helplessly.

In fact, there was no need for the two daughters to come and remind him, Yang Zhen had already been reminded that there was such a feasible plan. This is what a certain Cao Gang brother mentioned when he sent him to the edge of the tree to observe the situation.

After listening to the other party's proposal, Yang Zhen's heart moved slightly, knowing that this was Luo Chengzhang secretly helping him. Obviously, his future father-in-law was also worried that he would not be able to solve this problem, so he gave himself this reminder. In his mind, with the water nature of the Cao Gang brothers, there should be some certainty that the roots of the tree should be loosened by going into the water.

But Yang Zhen didn't see it that way. It looks stupid, but it's actually more stupid than it looks. He knew very well that although there must be many people in the Cao Gang, no matter how skilled these people were, there were very few things they could do after diving underwater, let alone loosen the soil at the roots of the trees and dig them out.

And in this era when diving equipment has not yet been invented, how long can people support themselves by diving to the bottom of the water in one breath? It is only the time of a stick of incense to hold up the sky, how much soil can be dug in such a short time? Not to mention the dark and complex environment underwater, and they did not have underwater lighting equipment for later generations, so this method is only theoretically possible, but in fact it is just a fantasy.

After hearing the reaction of Yang Zhen, who was brought back by his brothers, Luo Chengzhang was also stunned, only to find that this problem was indeed not as easy to solve as he imagined, and it also made his heart chuckle suddenly: "Don't be really self-defeating, which makes it difficult for my daughter and this kid to do good things...... Although he was secretly shocked in his heart, Luo Chengzhang was also difficult to ride a tiger at this time, and a person of his identity was naturally not easy to go back on, so take back what he said." So I can only pray that Yang Zhen can really show unexpected means again, and give himself and everyone a big surprise like the previous broken rope and take Pei.

However, Yang Zhen was also stumped by this problem at the moment, and no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't come up with a proper solution. He really can't travel back to his previous life and get an excavator over, with this thing, this tree is not a problem at all. It's a pity that this can only be thought about.

No matter how helpless and anxious Yang Zhen is, time will not stand still in the slightest. In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed, and it seems that it has entered the end of April, and the agreed deadline between the previous and Luo Chengzhang is getting closer and closer.

The Cao Gang still had some confidence in Yang Zhen at the beginning, and felt that with his ability, he should be able to help the people of Hangzhou City get rid of this disaster. But after more than half a month without the slightest movement from him, everyone's words began to change, and a large number of people began to stop being optimistic about him. And some people who are either jealous of Yang Zhen's current status, or who are dissatisfied with the relationship between Yang Zhen and Luo Yueying, also took the opportunity to spread some not-so-good rhetoric.

"Actually, this Yang Zhen's ability is just like that, it's just luck that he can be a Jinyi guard."

"Yes, yes, but this time, his good fortune is coming to an end. This problem is not something that can be solved by a few luck alone. ”

"Actually, it's good, if our young lady marries him, it's called a grievance."

"That's it, our Cao Gang is a person in the rivers and lakes, and he has become a relative to such a big leader of the Jinyi Guard, what is this called!"

For a while, all kinds of rumors continued to spread inside and outside the gang, and even ordinary people knew about this time. Many people were guided and despised Yang Zhen and them, feeling that this big leader of the Jinyi Guard was really incompetent, and he couldn't even do such a thing. But you completely forget that your own house is the same, isn't it?

But this is the logic of the weak, in their eyes, those big people should be able to do anything, do everything, and they just need to sit back and enjoy their achievements. Once the strong fail to succeed, they will double their contempt for each other.

And just when this situation was getting more and more serious, on the afternoon of April 27, a piece of news suddenly spread throughout the city of Hangzhou -- Yang Zhen was going to remove the big tree outside the Fengshan Water Gate tomorrow!
