Chapter 787: Request

In addition, after such a few days, eating those dishes every day, the emperor has long been tired of it, and he has long missed the food made by Angelica.

Angelica said with a smile: "The emperor wants to eat, and the folk girl will go to cook for the emperor in a while, but before cooking for the emperor, the folk girl still has something to say." ”

The emperor raised his hand slightly: "Speak." ”

Angelica: "The folk girl heard that there will be a drought in Chang'an City in three or five years, and the folk girl visited all parts of Chang'an in the past two days and thought of a way to solve the drought in Chang'an City. ”

When the emperor heard this, he was immediately interested, and when he saw her stop, he hurriedly raised his hand: "Speak quickly." ”

Angelica: "Yesterday, Master Sun of the Sinong Society, took me to Dongping Mountain behind Dongping Lake, on that mountain, there is a huge cave, Chang'an City every winter, there will be snow, if in winter, the ice and snow are stored in the cave, in the summer, even if there is a drought, there is no need to be afraid, the ice and snow in the cave can melt into water and irrigate the fields. ”

When the emperor heard this, he felt that there was some truth, but there was something wrong, he looked at the angelica and asked, "Won't the ice and snow put in the cave melt in the spring?" ”

Angelica: "That cave, I went in and saw it, all around it are hard stone walls, just a little rest, even if the ice and snow inside turn into water, it can also be stored inside, not to mention, the inside is already dark and damp, much colder than the outside, as long as the sealing is done, if you want to keep those ice and snow from melting for years, there is no problem." ”

The Emperor pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, I'm ready, what support do you need, just talk to me." ”

Angelica blinked and said with a smile: "The emperor is wise." Before, I saw that there were many refugees in Chang'an City, who lined up at the west gate of Chang'an City every day to receive porridge and drink.

Just ......"

"Just what?"

"It's just that they drink porridge too thin every day, and if they want to engage in such physical work, I'm afraid they have to eat a little fuller, so I have to implore the emperor to bring out more grain and ask them to do this and prepare for the coming year."

"Good, good!" The emperor said two good words in a row.

He looked at Angelica, and felt more and more that this little girl was not simple, not only was her mind smart, but her ideas were also very practical.

To say that the refugees in Chang'an City have been pouring into Chang'an in an endless stream since this autumn, plus the local refugees in Chang'an, the entire Chang'an City has been flooded with refugees.

Although he ordered the opening of the treasury for disaster relief, he could not hold too many refugees, so he had to make gruel.

This event would be played out almost every other year, but none of his ministers came up with a constructive solution.

On the contrary, this little girl is so insightful.

The emperor looked at Angelica, his eyes shining: "Anping, if your cave ice storage method can truly solve the problem of drought in Chang'an City, when the time comes, I will definitely reward you well." ”

"The people's daughter thanked the emperor first."

The emperor turned his head to look at Wang Fulai: "Fulai, go and find me the head of the household department and the head of the Ministry of Industry, and I will personally explain to them." ”

Wang Fulai agreed, and went down to announce the decree.

The emperor here looked at Angelica and asked with concern: "Anping, are you still used to this time in Chang'an?" ”

Angelica: "Thank you for the emperor's concern, the people are still used to it." ”
