The water level of the Nanqu River is slowly declining, and the farmland on the south bank has been exposed. Although it was still a little muddy, it didn't prevent Qin Xuan from going to observe.

Standing on a small mound with a slightly higher terrain, Qin Xuan held a folding book, kept writing and drawing, and muttered: "The river embankment that needs to be rebuilt is about 100 zhang, and the space that can be vacated is enough to rebuild a village!" ”

Walking hundreds of steps forward, looking at the location of Baojia Village, chewing the brush stick, he muttered to himself: "This hill should be able to be converted into terraced fields, and then planted mulberry trees...... The ink on the tip of the brush dripped, and fell on the cuff of Qin Xuan's left hand, and Qin Xuan didn't notice it.

Li Qingrui, who was holding an inkstone on the side, wanted to remind him, but when he saw Qin Xuan concentrating on thinking about things, he opened his mouth, but he still didn't speak.

Qin Xuan simply drew a sketch on the folding book, which clearly marked the river embankment, the new village, and the terraced fields. I don't know how to think of it again, the corners of Qin Xuan's mouth bent slightly, and he wanted to start writing again, when he caught a glimpse of the ink on the cuffs, he was slightly stunned, and then blurted out: "Qingrui, this ink has dripped to my cuffs, why don't you remind me?" ”

Li Qingrui smiled and said, "I just saw that my son was thinking about things, so I didn't say anything!" ”

Qin Xuan glanced at the ink a few more times and sighed, "What a good piece of clothing!" Shaking his head, he took a brush, dipped it on the inkstone in Li Qingrui's hand, and then wrote on the folding book: "Cross the bridge!" ”

Hearing that Qin Xuan was in Bao Cunzheng on the south bank, he hurried over. When he saw Qin Xuan, he saluted respectfully and said, "Lord Qin, are you preparing to repair the river embankment?" ”

Qin Xuan looked at Bao Cunzheng, smiled slightly, nodded, and said, "Yes, this official is inspecting the river embankment to see how many need to be repaired!" After speaking, he looked at Bao Cunzheng, who was excited, and then said: "Moreover, this official will also build another village for Baojia Village, and transform the original village into a mulberry garden!" ”

Bao Cunzheng's teeth trembled a little excitedly, and he was slightly stunned for a long time, then knelt on the ground and blurted out: "Lord Qin's kindness, the people of Baojia Village will not forget that the little old man thanked Lord Qin on behalf of more than 150 families in Baojia Village!" ”

Qin Xuan held a pen in one hand and a folding book in the other, there was no way to help, and hurriedly said: "Oh, Bao Cun is getting up quickly, there is no need to do this, this is what this official should do!" ”

Li Qingrui on the side, holding an inkstone in one hand and Bao Cunzheng's arm in the other, also echoed: "Bao Cun is getting up quickly, since Lord Qin has said so, don't be so polite!" ”

When Bao Cunzheng got up, Qin Xuan blurted out: "Come on, come on, Bao Cunzheng, the official will talk to you, the official's thoughts!" ”

Walking to the side of the Nanqu River, Qin Xuan took a brush and pointed to the river, and said: "The terrain here is higher, and this official wants to build another crossing bridge, together with the north and south of the Nanqu River!" After speaking, he raised his arm slightly, pointed to the opposite side, and said: "On the other side of the Nanqu River, this official will build a road to the county seat." ”

Bao Cun on the side heard Qin Xuan's words, and immediately widened his eyes, looked at the Nanqu River, looked at the other bank, and then looked at Qin Xuan, and couldn't help but be more respectful.

Qin Xuan turned around and said, "And this piece of farmland on the south bank, the official will also repair the canal so that these fields can be reasonably irrigated." As for the new village of Baojia Village! As he spoke, he turned and pointed to an overgrown place on the north bank, and said, "See, that piece of land is not suitable for planting, so it will be used as a new village land!" ”

Back at the county office, Qin Xuan hurriedly found Yang Linqiu, opened the folding book, and said: "Master Yang, this is the official's plan for the Nanqu River embankment, Baojia Village, and the surrounding places, come on, let me explain to you, do you see what's wrong?" ”

After Qin Xuan finished explaining, Yang Linqiu clapped his hands and blurted out: "Wonderful! If it is according to the thoughts of adults, there will be no flooding in the Nanqu River, and Baojia Village will gradually become richer! ”

When Qin Xuan heard Yang Linqiu's praise, a burst of joy instantly welled up in his heart, and he laughed triumphantly.

Yang Linqiu looked at the sketch on the folding book for a long time, and suddenly raised his head and said: "My lord, this matter will definitely be passed on by the people of Yuhang as a good story, such a good thing, let it be handed over to the lower officials!" ”

When Qin Xuan heard this, he thought for a long time in his heart and replied: "Master Yang, even if you don't say it, this official is ready to make you responsible!" Although the official can think of this, if he really asks the official to make specific arrangements, I am afraid that it will be a mistake! ”

When Yang Linqiu heard this, he laughed a few times, changed his previous serious and rigid color, picked up the folding book, and put down the sentence "Then the lower official will go to arrange", and turned to leave.

Looking at Yang Linqiu's hurried appearance, Qin Xuan closed his eyes and thought secretly: I finally bought Yang Linqiu, thinking about the salt tax, I have a headache, now it's okay, if Yang Linqiu helps, it should be much simpler than before......

In the next few days, Qin Xuan never saw Yang Linqiu again, he was bored every day, and occasionally went to He's mansion to drink and have fun with He's staff, and learn about weaving silk, which was Qin Xuan's biggest entertainment.

On this day, Qin Xuan had a whim, and took Li Qingrui and Xing Honglin to Nanqu River.

Before he could reach him, he heard a shout.

"Here, fill in some more lime!"

"Dig a little deeper!"

Qin Xuan looked at it with great eyes, and saw that Yang Linqiu's clothes were covered with mud, and he said casually: "I didn't expect Master Yang to get serious and work so hard!" ”

Li Qingrui on the side smiled and said: "This is because Gongzi has not observed much of Master Yang before, according to my observation, Master Yang has always done things and is very serious!" ”

Qin Xuan glanced sideways at Li Qingrui, not knowing what he was thinking, for a moment, he nodded, and said calmly: "Well, let's go, go and have a look!" ”

Walking up to Yang Linqiu, Yang Linqiu was still seriously looking at the work of a group of river workers, Qin Xuan smiled slightly and said, "Master Yang!" ”

Yang Linqiu turned around when he heard this, and when he saw Qin Xuan, he saluted: "Lord Qin? How did you get here? ”

Qin Xuan smiled and blurted out, "It's okay, let's take a look at the progress!" ”

Yang Linqiu patted the dust on his hand and said with a smile: "My lord, don't worry, everything will be supervised by the subordinate throughout the process, and it will be fine!" After speaking, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the embankment, and said: "My lord, you see, where the embankment is, stones, lime, and the lower officials have no province at all, if this embankment is completed, there will be no more problems!" ”

Qin Xuan followed Yang Linqiu's point, and clearly saw a large number of stones, lime, just with a little dirt, and nodded.

Yang Linqiu should have been too excited, pulled Qin Xuan, walked to the small hill on the side, stretched out his hand and pointed to the place of the new village planned by Qin Xuan, and said: "My lord, you see, the people of Baojia Village, I heard that the village was built for them, and they are more active than the lower officials, and the young people in the village are afraid that they are all here, from morning to night, they work very hard!" ”

Qin Xuan nodded and asked, "Well, have the houses and streets in the village ever been built according to what this official has set up?" ”

"Of course, Xia Guan first took them to measure the size and repaired the road, and then let them build their own houses!"

"That's good, Master Yang, remember, we must make Baojia Village a new village, the streets are straight, and the size of each house is the same!" Qin Xuan secretly patted Yang Linqiu's hand, which was covered with dirt by Yang Linqiu's dirty hand.

Yang Linqiu nodded and said: "This lower official knows that the adult plan must be painted according to feng shui, not to mention the lower official, even the people of Baojia Village themselves are not willing to change it!" ”

When Qin Xuan heard this, he didn't feel that he secretly slandered in his heart: Feng Shui? I really haven't thought about this, and even if I do, I don't understand...... After pondering for a moment, Qin Xuan laughed dryly a few times and said, "Well, it is indeed a feng shui problem, if it is not built according to the folding book, I am afraid that it will offend the water god!" ”

Qin Xuan simply followed Yang Linqiu's words, and then made it up, but he didn't expect Yang Linqiu to believe it, nodded solemnly, and said: "Well, not only the village is built according to the adult's drawing, but even the bridge is being prepared by the lower officials in strict accordance with the adult's drawing, but there is a problem that cannot be solved!" ”

Qin Xuan frowned unconsciously, and gestured: "Let's talk about it, maybe this official has some ideas!" ”

"It is written in the book that the bridge should be built there!" As Yang Linqiu spoke, he stretched out his finger and pointed, and then said: "That river is nearly five zhang wide, and the shape of the bridge drawn by the adults is probably difficult to erect!" ”

Qin Xuan thought of the bridge he had drawn at that time according to the bridge across the river that he had seen in later generations, and he secretly snickered: It is indeed difficult to be the master of Yang! After thinking about it, he squatted on the ground, picked up a stone, and said while drawing: "The river is five zhang wide, let the people who are good at water fill in the middle of the river with stones and other things, erect a bridge pier, and then connect the north and south banks to build a bridge!" ”

Yang Linqiu hesitated for a moment and said: "The master of the bridge repair also said so, and the lower officials were afraid that it would affect Feng Shui, so they didn't agree!" ”

Qin Xuan waved his hand and said: "As long as the bridge is built here, it will not affect the feng shui, Master Yang asked the bridge repair masters to discuss with each other, as long as the bridge is strong, it will be done!" ”

After Qin Xuanfang finished speaking, a servant hurriedly ran to him. "I've seen my lord!"

Qin Xuan turned around and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

The official clasped his hands into fists and said, "My lord, Mr. Liu, your lord, let the humble post come and inform your lordship." Hangzhou Mayor Pan Hongjia Pan came to visit, and is now waiting for the adults in the back hall! ”

When Qin Xuan heard this, he couldn't help frowning, and Yang Linqiu on the side couldn't help but become serious.

Qin Xuan turned his head to the official and said, "Well, I know! I'll be back right away! After speaking, Qin Xuan looked at Yang Linqiu and said with a wry smile: "Pan Hongjia must have come this time for Jiang Kejin's matter, I don't know how this official should deal with it?" ”

Yang Linqiu shook his head slightly and said, "My lord, go see him first and see what he says?" If you deliberately make things difficult, adults don't have to be afraid, the room has been arranged, and adults will not suffer! ”
