Chapter 476: Emergency Help
"Yes, the minion obeys!"
Amber knew that Long Xingche was still angry today, so he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly responded!
"Wait for the resignation!"
The ministers of civil and military affairs in the imperial study, although they got rid of the trouble, but because they were fined for half a year, they all bowed their heads and bowed their ears and came out of the imperial study in a depressed mood.
Everyone walked out of the palace guards, and then they breathed a sigh of relief and began to speak freely!
"Hey, what's going on in the Northwest? Why is there a drought? It's been seven or eight years, haven't there been any problems? ”
"That's it! Just like the Fu Wenrui mentioned by Lord Song just now, the eldest son of Lord Fu has been guarding there, if you have any questions, just look for him, why do you still report to the capital? ”
"That's the emperor's brother-in-law, the uncle of the country, and belongs to the emperor's relatives and relatives, this kind of thing must be done by others, so as not to tire him!"
"Yes! Yes! I think so too......"
“……”
After Song Laizhou heard everyone's words, he understood that everyone was dissatisfied with Long Xingche's reuse of Fu Wang Ye and others in the past few years, and they were also very jealous of the talent of Fu Wang Ye's family.
He stroked his beard secretly, and became more and more glad that he had just pushed the matter of drought control to Fu Wenrui, and he had heard of the unique terrain of the northwest, many of which were mountainous or mudflats. When Song Laizhou thought of this, he couldn't help but smile smugly......
In fact, there is another thing, basically the entire Chen country people know, Zhang Wuzhou used to be an arid zone, drought and little rain year after year, the people who planted the land never had a good harvest, and there were many barren fields.
Zhangwuzhou is very large, but the terrain is complex, and there are droughts for many years, which is a difficult problem, and no one wants to take over.
Long Xingche didn't have a good relationship with Fu Wangye at that time, so he sent Fu Wangye's eldest son Fu Wenrui to Zhangwuzhou.
Since Fu Wenrui went to take over Zhangwu Prefecture, he has carefully dealt with the problem of famine caused by perennial drought and lack of rain. He also actively applied to the imperial court for a two-year exemption from taxes, recuperation, and appeasement of the people's grievances. Long Xingche was also worried that the victims would riot because of the famine, so he agreed.
Moreover, at the same time that Long Xingche agreed to exempt Zhang Wuzhou from paying taxes for two years, an interesting thing happened, since Fu Wenrui took over Zhangwu Prefecture, Zhang Wuzhou has been in good weather every year.
Fu Wenrui also actively convened some farming experts to discuss how to achieve efficient and high-yield farming methods.
Therefore, it is precisely because of the relationship between the right time, place and people that Zhang Wuzhou only took two years to increase the grain production capacity several times!
Moreover, Fu Wenrui also actively mobilized the villagers who farmed, reclaimed the wasteland, and greatly expanded the farming area by nearly two times, turning the original "Northwest Wilderness" of Chenguo into the "Northwest Warehouse" of Chenguo!
But just this year, the wind and rain in Zhangwuzhou for seven or eight years seem to have passed, and the drought has been making the farmers panic!
Even some of the older farmers who farmed the land remembered the unusually arid climate many years ago, when Fu Wenrui did not go to Zhangwu Prefecture!
Jingxuan Hall of the Imperial Palace of Chenguo
After Long Xingche returned to Jingxuan Hall from the imperial study, he told Fu Wenjing what had just happened truthfully.
"You asked my brother to deal with the drought? But as far as I know, my brother doesn't seem to know much about it! Fu Wenjing said worriedly.
"I also know, but those wastes, when there is something, they will only shout long live, shirk responsibility, and never put themselves in my shoes, or stand up to help me solve problems."
Long Xingche covered the sores that grew out of his anger because of this incident, and complained angrily!
Fu Wenjing walked around the Jingxuan Hall anxiously, and said: "There is no way to be anxious now, since it is a drought, the most important thing is to find a water source, and then divert water to solve the urgent need!" ”
"I wanted to go with you, so I found a large number of men and horses to hurry to Zhangwuzhou to cooperate with your brother to dig water sources and irrigate crops. Strive for this year's autumn harvest and suffer less losses! "Long Xingche has already started to make some measures!
"Then can you send a large number of people and horses to find experts in the water source?"
When Fu Wenjing was young, when she followed Qingxuan Dao Chang to practice martial arts on Qilian Mountain, she liked to read some miscellaneous books. She also has a good memory, and once read a miscellaneous book without a cover, and learned some tricks to find water.
"Experts? What does that mean? As an ancient person, Long Xingche is a little difficult to understand the fresh vocabulary of Fu Wenjing's "expert"!
Fu Wenjing saw Long Xingche's dazed appearance, and realized that the way she said "expert" didn't seem to be suitable for Long Xingche to listen.
She then explained: "The experts in my mouth are actually the kind of people who are very good at finding water, such as "water masters" and the like? ”
After listening to Fu Wenjing's explanation, Long Xingche shook his head firmly, and then simply said directly: "No!" ”
"Then what's the use of letting them go! It's just that there are more mouths to eat! Fu Wenjing thought of her eldest brother Fu Wenrui's current situation, and she didn't care about any rules, so she directly complained about Long Xingche.
"One more person, one more strength, that's what I think, are you blaming me now?" Long Xingche was already in a hurry because of this matter, but now that he was reproached by Fu Wenjing, he felt even more uncomfortable!
"Okay, I won't quarrel with you, what's the use of us arguing like this?" Fu Wenjing said as she walked towards the study.
"Where are you going?" Long Xingche saw Fu Wenjing hurriedly walking out, hurriedly followed, and asked curiously.
"I once read a miscellaneous book similar to finding a water source, which records some methods of finding a water source, I will first remember it with my memory, and then you can quickly have someone take it to Zhangwuzhou to give my eldest brother." Fu Wenjing was in a hurry, and she had already entered the study while talking.
Long Xingche was by Fu Wenjing's side, and was dumbfounded to see the place and method of finding the water source that Fu Wenjing had written down with his own memory.
"The most powerful way to find water is to pinch the ground."
Surrounded by mountains on three sides, the groundwater is concentrated in the Pujikou, so digging a well near the Pujikou has more water!
"There is a ditch between two mountains, and there is a flow of water along the ditch."
Sandwiched between the two mountains, it is easy to find water in the rock formations on both sides of the lower valley.
"Two ditches intersect, and the spring water gushes."
Under the mouth of the mountain at the confluence of the two ditches, there may be spring water flowing in, and it is more reliable to dig a well here to find a water source, and to achieve the purpose of finding water, the source of groundwater is that after the rainwater falls to the ground, a part of it seeps into the crevices of the continuous multi-layered rocks and rocks to become groundwater.
"Mountain mouth to mountain mouth, good water under the mouth."
The two mountain mouths are opposite each other, the distance is close, and under the two mountain mouths, the terrain is flat, and it is easy to dig a well at the lock mouth to draw water.
"Are all of your methods really based on that miscellaneous book? What's the name of that book? Is it still there? ”
Long Xingche felt that if he took out the book that Fu Wenjing had read, maybe he could make the most use of the knowledge above.
