Chapter 1068: Repair the River Channel
Siqi still wants to go home during the New Year this year, because here, there is actually not much to do in winter, if she and Tiankuo don't toss these, now they will stay at home and rest.
But now it seems that I can't really be sure if I can go home this year, it's already late winter, and if there are still many things to do, I really can't go back, after all, it will take half a month on the road.
And it's snowing, and it's even more impossible if the road is not easy to walk.
Siqi is very homesick, but there is no way, he has to be busy with the things in front of him first, otherwise what are they doing here?
Although things are going very smoothly at the moment, there are still a lot of troubles, coming here for a few months, Tiankuo feels more worried than when he was studying, often can't sleep at night, has been thinking about where the county's affairs have not been done, where should be changed again, and how to deal with those rich families in this county.
Also, Si Qi said a few days ago that it is very dry here, and the crops in the field need to be watered, and they have to think of a way, even if they have carefully distributed the crops to be planted, they can't have no water at all.
The whole Lu County relies on a big river to irrigate, there are few ponds and lakes, those who are far away rely on saving some water to water the crops when it rains, if the rain is less, it is very inconvenient, you can't go dozens of miles to pick up water and come back to farm, right?
They had been thinking about this matter for the past two days, and they had been busy all night, lying in bed, and Siqi brought it up again.
"Brother Tiankuo, you said that when the weather is warmer, should you let everyone dig the river, I see that there are actually rivers in several places, but they have not been repaired for many years, the silt has been blocked, and there is no water to use, if you can take the trouble to work for a while, dredge the river, and dig a new ditch in the place where the water source is inconvenient, then the irrigation will be much simpler."
Tiankuo warmed her hands and feet in the quilt, and moved closer to her, "I've been thinking about your words, but this digging river is not a simple matter, it takes time and effort, and besides, we don't have much money in our hands, and now we have opened a few workshops, ready to do the wool trade, as well as the crops in the field, and the fruit trees to serve in the coming year, we have to think about it." ”
"At this time, if you dig a river, you will always have to pay the workers, once this thing is done, you have to throw silver into it, and now no business has been done, and there is no money in the county, if you really want to repair it, then you have to come from place to place, and I am afraid that something will go wrong at that time."
Siqi leaned into his arms and looked up at him, "Then let's let the local people repair it themselves, what I think is, everyone is actually willing to repair the river, who doesn't want to be more convenient when irrigating?" It's just that no one wants to organize, just like you said, this thing is a big deal, and it is easy to start, and after the beginning, it is to throw money into it, so no one mentions it. ”
"If we talk about it, let the local people build the river themselves, this matter should be much simpler, as for the money to be spent, I think it will be the same as you said before, to discuss with those rich people, if the river is repaired, it will also be of great benefit to them, can they not do it? At this time, take some silver out, and benefit for life in the future, no matter how you think about it, it is a good thing. ”
"When you first took office before, people came to visit your home from time to time, just to have a good relationship with us, and then we have been busy with other things, and we don't have time to see them, and there are fewer talents now, whether they take us in their eyes or not, you are the magistrate of Lu County, and you always have to give you some face, it depends on what we do."
Tiankuo listened to her words, nodded, and then hugged her tighter, "Okay, let's talk about this tomorrow, let's go to bed first, it's already too late." ”
Recently, they have been busy with these things, and the time when they are intimate has become less and less, after all, they run outside during the day, and they are so tired that they don't look good, do they still have that energy at night?
Even if Tiankuo still has the spirit, Siqi can't hold it anymore, where is he willing to let his precious daughter-in-law be wronged?
If this is implemented at this time, how can I not go back to my home during the New Year, it has been snowing for three days and two ends, and it is a lot of snow, the snow in the yard is swept away, and a thick layer can be piled up on the side, just this weather, let them go out and worry a little, in case of danger, this ice and snow, there is no one to help, it is really terrible.
Tiankuo knew that he was homesick, but he couldn't help it, and he probably couldn't go back this year.
The next day, when the two were sitting in the house talking, Tiankuo suddenly mentioned, "If you want to go home, you have to leave at this time, or I will find a way to send you and Zhou Hao and Zhou Xing back first, I will stay here this year, you go home to accompany the family, okay?" ”
Siqi shook his head, "It's not good, I said, I'm already married to you, where you are, where is home, even if I miss home again, I won't leave you to go back alone, let's celebrate the New Year here this year, I just have never spent the New Year in the north, this year is just to see what it's like." ”
"Let's arrange the time for the next year, won't we have time to go back? When I left, I told my grandmother that maybe I couldn't go back this year, and they also knew it in their hearts, Brother Tiankuo, you should write a letter to your family in the next few days, send it back as soon as possible, and calm the hearts of the family, and don't let them keep talking. ”
Tiankuo was reluctant to let him go back, thinking that he had said so, he didn't say anything more, and did what he wanted.
Everyone has nothing to do in winter, so they have to arrange what they want to do in the spring of the next year, when it comes to repairing the river, Siqi and Tiankuo have been unable to let go, this thing must be done, there are so many benefits, how can you just think about it?
So Tiankuo said that he would do it, and he really called the conspicuous ones in the county and told them what it meant.
Those people are doing business under their hands, and they are all human spirits. Son, how can you be willing to take out the money for no reason, if this money is asked for by the magistrate, give it to him to spend for himself, they are still willing to take it out, after all, they bought a favor from him, and in the future, the magistrate will have a handle in their hands, and they will take care of them in doing things.
But this money is used to repair the river, in their opinion, it is a waste of money, their own land rent to those farmers to plant, even if it is inconvenient not to water, don't you have to pay so much grain to them in a year? It's the same if you build a river, it's a waste of money.
