Chapter 150: I Want to Build a Lake

Feng Yao ordered his retinue to lay the sacrificed brother on the ground, took off his robe and covered his body, then knelt in front of his corpse, bowed three times, and said, "Brother, go well, I will definitely take good care of your family!" ”

Seeing the lord like this, the rest of the relatives were also greatly moved, and they knelt down one after another, and bowed three times according to Feng Yao's appearance, Xu Chu, Dai Ling, all the same. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The three relatives who asked for their lives were moved to tears, and loudly thanked the lord for his kindness.

Feng Yao stood up, his eyes were like torches, and he looked into the distance, "One day, I will let you see me use the head of the Cao thief to pay tribute to all the sacrificed heroic spirits!" But for now I hope you all calm down! ”

With tears in their eyes, the three relatives who asked for their lives nodded vigorously, and said loudly: "We are willing to smear the liver and brain of the lord!" To repay the great kindness of the Lord! ”

Feng Yao nodded, ordered everyone to cheer up, and after a while, Yang Wu returned, reported the situation in front, there was no danger, and also notified the camp to strengthen the defense, and then came back to resume his life.

……

After returning to Taolin Residence, Feng Yao's mother, Mrs. Feng, was very happy, and pulled Feng Yao to talk in the middle of the night, until late at night, the oil in the oil lamp was almost burned out, and then she reluctantly let Feng Yao go to sleep.

Because his mother, Mrs. Feng, would return to Shouchun with her brother-in-law, Feng Yao did not say anything about the assassination, not wanting Mrs. Feng to worry too much.

Brother-in-law Huang Yi personally handed over the 500 cavalry archers to Feng Yao, and Mrs. Feng selected ten of the best slaves and maids to stay, and ordered them to take good care of their young master Feng Yao and young master mother Gong Yinglian.

Feng Yao already had Xu Chu Dailing and more than a hundred personal guards, where could he still use these slaves and maids, but Feng Yao couldn't refuse his mother's kindness, so he handed over all ten slaves and maids to Gong Yinglian to take with him.

As soon as it was dawn the next day, Mrs. Feng got into the carriage and left! Feng Yao had been sending more than ten miles before Mrs. Feng asked to return to Pingyu City.

After learning about Feng Yao's assassination, the military advisor Xu Shu did. "My lord, there should be two assassins, it is better to hang their bodies outside the city gates, one can deter those with evil intentions, and the other is that their accomplices will come to steal the corpses at night!" Just order the soldiers to ambush in advance, and they will be captured! ”

Feng Yao calculated. Bai Ri mainly discussed the war with Xu Shu, and handed over the selection of elite soldiers to Xu Chu and Dai.

In the evening, as Xu Shu said, another assassin appeared and was captured by the scout commander Liu Shun who was lying outside, but before he could be interrogated, the assassin committed suicide by biting the poison pill in his mouth, and his identity could not be traced, and it was impossible to confirm who the main messenger behind it was.

Feng Yao posted another bounty announcement. As for the two unclaimed and unknown bodies of the Assassins, after hanging for two days, they began to stink and had to dig a pit and bury them in the wild.

The recruitment in the city attracted a special talent on this day, surnamed Zhang Mingliang. The word Bokui, in his forties. He once served as a county official, read poetry and books extensively, and was also well-known in Pingyu County, and was very familiar with the terrain of Pingyu. was overjoyed and recommended himself to vote for Feng Yao.

After Feng Yao talked to him, he found that Zhang Liang was not only familiar with the terrain of Pingyu, but also had a unique set of rules for the management of Yingshui, and Zhang Liang had also made suggestions before. But the successive lords of counties either don't believe in Zhang Liang's theory, or they have no intention of doing such a money-losing deal, patronizing to get oil and water from officialdom.

Zhang Liang believes that Runan is a good place, with abundant water, fertile land and suitable climate, but due to the flat terrain and shallow riverbed, Runan often either cracks in dry land, or due to excessive rain, waterlogging or riverbed diversion, flooding the farmland and houses of the people nearby, making the people in Runan miserable.

Because of the cause of waterlogging, in Pingyu County, especially in the west of Pingyu City, hundreds of large and small lakes and ponds have been formed, if you can follow these lakes and ponds, dig all of them deep, dig big, dig out a huge lake in the west of Pingyu City, and connect with Yingshui, it can play the role of storing and regulating rainwater, the dry season will not be without a drop of water, and excessive rainwater in the rainy season can also flow into this giant lake, so that Pingyu County will never have waterlogging again, and the people can settle down for a long time. Sit under one’s own vine and fig tree.

Zhang Liang's words surprised Feng Yao, he couldn't imagine that a little-known Han Shi would have such an advanced concept! The role of this giant lake is the reservoir of the future!

It's just wonderful!!

Feng Yao has long wanted to find a talent who can transform water conservancy, although Feng Yao himself has many ideas, but because he is not very familiar with the terrain of Pingyu, he has not been able to start.

Feng Yao immediately appointed Zhang Liang as the county water conservator, Cao Pengshi, in charge of the water conservancy affairs of the whole county in Runan, and ordered him to build water conservancy and dig artificial lakes.

The military advisor Xu Shu also affirmed Feng Yao's move, Xu Shu said from the military aspect, "Although Pingyu is a county rule, but all sides are flat, it is easy to be attacked by the enemy, or cut off the water flow, so that the city is interrupted, or the water floods Pingyu City, the lord might as well dig this lake several times larger than Pingyu City, block the west of Pingyu City, form a barrier that is difficult to pass, even if the enemy comes from the north and south roads, it will have to go around a big circle, and it is necessary to go deep into the hinterland of Runan to really attack Pingyu, and it is impossible to surround it." , but in Pingyu City, you can pass through Yingshui and the big lake at any time, enter and exit, and transport grain and troops from the upstream! ”

Feng Yao was overjoyed, even if the farmland was reduced because of the lake, but fish can be raised in the lake, which can also solve the lives of many people.

However, Feng Yao began to worry about whether his money was enough to pay for his wages, so he asked Zhang Liang to calculate how much silver taels he would use.

Zhang Liang was also excited, gladly accepted the order, and after a while, he calculated, "Fu Jun, the preliminary estimate is about 200 million Wen!" And that's not even counting the money that the evicted people paid for their fields and houses! ”

Feng Yao couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, and said secretly: "This time it can be regarded as a small fortune, but even if all the silver taels and gold jewelry are converted into copper coins, it will only be about one billion, and the first day or two, just the reward for 50,000 soldiers, plus the money sent by the war exploits, has consumed more than 100 million, and the city will have to be expanded later, and it will cost tens of millions of money, and the two add up, almost 200 million!" Digging another artificial lake and spending 200 million is not compensation? ”

"Berqua, calculate how much it will cost to move out of the people!" Feng Yaodao.

Zhang Liang calculated again and said, "About 300 million dollars!" ”

Feng Yao secretly took a breath of cold air, his eyes widened, and he said in his heart: "It costs 500 million yuan to dig a lake!" No wonder no one ever wanted to do it anymore!! (To be continued.) )
