();

Since ancient times, there have only been two things that can make great contributions, war and people's livelihood.

How many heroes and heroes, relying on their military exploits, are marquis and generals.

Song Qingyuan is a woman, and the Song family is a scholar, which is obviously inappropriate.

The second item of people's livelihood is that the people take food as the sky, the land of Daqi is barren, the grain output is small, and hundreds of people are hungry and cold, and they cannot eat and wear.

If we can increase grain production and solve the livelihood problems of the people, it will also be a real merit.

"What do you mean...... Start with food. Xiao Jingduo frowned.

The Song family started with winter wheat, and the idea of fighting grain is understandable.

However, increasing crop yields is not something that can be achieved overnight, and it often takes several years of repeated research and practice to achieve a little results.

Xiao Jingduo is not optimistic about this.

"Of course not." Song Qingyuan shook his head.

In fact, in addition to winter wheat, she had also heard of double cropping rice, but unfortunately she didn't understand it.

"It's a matter of luck to be able to grow winter wheat, and I don't believe that the same good fortune can happen a second time."

Song Qingyuan said, hooking the corners of his mouth, with a dumb expression, "My purpose is ......"

"River! Road! ”

"The river?"

"Yes, it's the river!"

Song Qingyuan retracted his face and said solemnly, "The water in the south is caused by the river bursting, which caused the village to be flooded and the people to be displaced. ”

"Indeed!" Xiao Jingduo listened attentively.

Song Qingyuan continued, "Regarding the issue of the river, I have studied for a long time, found a lot of county records, and collected a lot of information. ”

"In our Great Qi country, the protection of rivers is very weak, and almost every year, large and small river mouths are washed away, flooding crops."

"If we can solve the river problem in one fell swoop, it will be a great achievement."

"Even if it can't be completely solved, it may reduce the harm caused by the river, which is already beneficial to the people's livelihood and can be regarded as sharing the worries of the imperial court."

Hearing this, Xiao Jingduo was silent, he thought that he had never underestimated Song Qingyuan, but he didn't want to, he still looked down on it.

This girl is not confined to one town, one county, or even one government, but focuses on the entire Great Qi country and the people of the world.

The pattern is so big, how many men in the world should be ashamed, it's a pity...... It's too hard!

The hidden dangers of the river have existed since ancient times, threatening the common people and even the imperial court at all times.

"I also have the heart to clean up the river, but I can't ......" Xiao Jingduo shook his head.

"This is a huge project, and the manpower, material resources, and financial resources required are incalculable."

"The current situation of the Israeli treasury...... I'm afraid it's going to be unsustainable. ”

There are countless rivers in the Great Qi country, and there are countless excerpts in various prefectures and counties applying for river repairs every year.

The silver thrown by the imperial court in the river is even more countless.

Whether it is the current saint or the hundred officials in the court, none of them do not want to solve the river problem, once and for all, it is a pity...... Can't do it.

Even if the imperial court gritted its teeth, allocated silver from the household department, and vigorously repaired the river, but if it was repaired this year, once the rain rose sharply next year, the river would still be washed away.

It can't be broken in one year, there are two more years, and if it can't be broken in two years, then three years, natural disasters, and manpower is irresistible.

Therefore, the imperial court is engaged in a tug-of-war with the river, which is broken and repaired.

This has been the case in all dynasties, and when it comes to the Great Qi Dynasty, there is no way to do it......

Thinking of this, Xiao Jingduo's face was dyed with a touch of sadness, and he stretched out his hand tiredly, kneading his eyebrows.

Worried! Country! Worried! People!

Song Qingyuan suddenly felt for a while, Xiao Jingduo, who was in charge of Jinyiwei, may be ruthless and not a good person.

However, he has a patriotic heart.

In fact, such a man is more attractive than those who only stick to small things and look at themselves.

Song Qingyuan stretched out his white and delicate hand, pulled down Xiao Jingduo's hand, and put his hand between his eyebrows to smooth his frowning brows.

He said softly, "Adults are worried about the country, but Yuan'er wants to be an adult's interpretation flower and share worries and solve problems for adults." ”

Hearing this, Xiao Jingduo suddenly raised his head, grabbed Song Qingyuan's hand, and said in a hoarse voice, "Yuan'er, sit here." ”

As soon as the words fell, Song Qingyuan was brought into Xiao Jingduo's arms by a force, and sat firmly on his lap.

At the waist, he was still surrounded by a strong hand, hugged firmly, and said in a low voice, "My Yuan'er, why is it so good at making people happy." ”

"Huh?" Song Qingyuan smiled lightly and shook his fingers playfully, "Yuan'er is telling the truth, not deliberately making adults happy." ”

"Since I've set my sights on the river, I must have calculated it."

Song Qingyuan straightened his body, slightly widened the distance between him and Xiao Jingduo, and said, "My method, the imperial court doesn't need to give too much silver." ”

"In other words, as long as the officials below are willing to cooperate, the imperial court does not need to spend a penny, and it can properly manage the river and benefit the people."

"Oh?" Xiao Jingduo's expression became serious, "Tell me what to say." ”

Song Qingyuan sorted out his thoughts, "The first one is to open the gate and release water and irrigate the fields. ”

"This not only reduces the burden on the river, but also allows the silt in the river to wash away the fields, improve the barren land, and increase soil fertility, so as to achieve the purpose of increasing yields."

Silt irrigation, in addition to meeting the water demand of crops, can also play a role in silting the land, flushing the salinity, and improving the physical properties of the land.

Improving land fertility and promoting agricultural production is one of the effective measures to improve low-lying land, saline-alkali land, marshland, and barren sandy land.

When did the method of silting the field arise, Song Qingyuan did not know.

However, since the southern hair, she has read a lot of books and checked a lot of information, so she learned that there was no record in the Great Qi Dynasty, so she put forward this suggestion.

The coherent voice continued.

"As long as the fertile land transformed by silt is sold to the people at a low price, and the money obtained is used to repair the river, a virtuous circle can be formed and self-sufficiency can be formed."

"In this way, the court does not have to pay silver, and the people have good land in their hands, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone."

"Go on!" Xiao Jingduo looked focused.

"The second point is to dig a reservoir and build a reservoir downstream of the river, and once the water level of the river increases, the sluice gates can be opened to release water into the reservoir."

"The reservoir can reduce the pressure on the river and store water......

Xiao Jingduo was thorough at a moment, and then Song Qingyuan's words continued, "The reservoir can be used to irrigate the land in disaster years, and it can also divert water from the reservoir to irrigate farmland. ”

Xiao Jingduo's mind was spinning rapidly, it seemed that Song Qingyuan only put forward two suggestions, but they were indeed one link after another, as long as they were fully implemented......

The flooding of the rivers will be reduced, the people's fertile land will be increased, and at the same time, the work of preventing drought will be done.

Xiao Jingduo's expression became strange, and the light flashing in his eyes seemed to be about to turn into substance.

Gently patted Song Qingyuan's head, "Yuan'er is smart, if he is a man, he will become a generation of famous ministers and benefit the people of the world, but it's a pity that ......"

Xiao Jingduo shook his head, feeling regretful.

His Yuan was a little woman who could not enter the court as an official.

Fortunately, it was a woman, so he could embrace him, Xiao Jingduo hugged Song Qingyuan's hand tightly.

Song Qingyuan raised his head, "I'm just making suggestions, and the specific implementation will be handed over to knowledgeable officials." ”

For example, where to set up the gate, where to dig the reservoir, and the direction of the reservoir, these professional issues, Song Qingyuan did not know much about them, and did not dare to get started easily.

"Enough!"

"These two suggestions you made are enough, and I'll do the rest."

Xiao Jingduo promised, and then asked, "What are you going to do with the silver that was dug up?" "I want to talk about "Splendid Pastoral: Small Landlords of Farmers" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
