Chapter 266: Flooding [1]

What's going on there? Li Hongxiang asked anxiously.

Zhang Tiezhu shook his head, "Li Zheng can't help it." ”

Su Jinse thought for a while and said: "Dad, the river at the entrance of the village is too narrow, do we have to find a way to widen it, dredge the river, quickly drain the flood, and then build a dam to protect the bank?" ”

Now she finally understands that something was wrong in her heart before, where that uneasiness came from, because the flood was coming, so she was uneasy in her heart.

Is this just intuition?

Hearing these words, Zhang Tiezhu was shocked, and Li Hongxiang was also stunned.

"Bao'er, how did you come up with these methods?" Zhang Tiezhu was surprised.

Su Jinse's eyes flashed, and he sorted out his thoughts, and then slowly spoke: "When I went to the county with my father before, I overheard two scholars arguing about the control of waterlogging, so I wrote it down, and I don't know if it works. Dad, do you think this will work? ”

said, and then blinked those misty eyes.

Zhang Tiezhu showed a look of surprise on his face, "This method should be fine!" I'm going to talk to Lizheng about it! ”

He didn't doubt Su Jinse's words, his Bao'er has a good memory, and his head is also very useful, when he sells things in the county, Bao'er is bored, so he will walk around, and he won't need him to look for her, he will come back by himself, and he won't recognize the wrong way, so Zhang Tiezhu didn't doubt Su Jinse's words.

Li Hongxiang was also happy, but also a little worried, "Is this method successful?" ”

"If you can't make it, you have to go to Lizheng and ask." So Zhang Tiezhu put on a coat belt and a hat, and went to find Lizheng again.

When he arrived at Lizheng's house, Zhang Tiezhu expressed Su Jinse's opinions, widening the river, repairing the embankment, building protective banks and other ideas, Zhang Damin listened to it and praised it again and again, so he organized the villagers to discuss the matter of widening the river and repairing the embankment.

When everyone heard that this was going to make efforts to widen the river and build a dam for free, and it was still dangerous, they were not very willing.

Zhang Damin had a cold face, "The whole village is our own, our home!" If the flood comes, everyone has no homes, how can they survive? Your wife and children will be affected by the flood, and everyone's house will be swept away by the flood, is that what you want to see? ”

And they were silent.

Zhang Damin ordered that every household must contribute a strong man to widen the river and build a dam.

In the next few days, the rain suddenly became a lot lighter, and the river water receded by half.

If he doesn't understand something, he will ask Zhang Tiezhu, and Zhang Tiezhu will secretly ask Su Jinse.

It is best to use clay to build a dam, and there are many rocky mountains here, and clay can be found everywhere, so there is no need to worry.

However, the huge rocks had to be carried down from the mountain, and it took a lot of effort.

In this way, after ten days of effort, the river was finally widened, and a dam was built on the side of the river near the village, but on the side of the river near the fields, it was too late to repair it, because the rain came again.

During the construction of the river, some of the villagers shouted dissatisfiedly, what kind of embankment to build, look, hasn't the rain stopped?

Jiang Yumei was also dissatisfied, the rain had stopped, and she knew that she wouldn't spend so much money to hoard food, what a waste! It also caused the grain to become moldy!

Zhang Damin felt that when the dam was built, whether it rained or not, he could finally feel more at ease.

But the rain came again.
