Chapter 327: Preparing to break ground
"It sees, or I'd better come back an hour later." The four scratched the back of their heads at a loss.
Xiaoyun nodded and took him out of the room again, "Yes, if they're done talking by then." ”
At this time of day, Murong Lin should have finished packing up and reading at night, while he was also waiting for the pen and ink on the side. In the past, he only felt that it was very sleepy to not sleep too late, but after he didn't have to work today, he felt a little uncomfortable.
Looking at Feng Xiaoyue's brightly lit room with a little melancholy, he sighed, and Siben had to obediently return to his room and count the sound of bangzi again.
However, to their surprise, the two of them talked about the philosophy of poetry from the waterway, and talked all night. It wasn't until the candles in the room burned out and the sky outside was slightly bright, that Feng Xiaoyue suddenly reacted.
"It's dawn." Feng Xiaoyue sighed after realizing it, and when she looked up, Xiao Yun and Xiao Yu outside were already tired and asleep on the table.
"That's true." Murong Lin rose to a lazy waist, and then saw that the other party's eyes were all dark and blue, and couldn't help but laugh, "You only came back yesterday, I bothered you all night, now you take advantage of the time is still early, hurry up and rest for a while, I'll go back first." ”
"It's the same with you, even if you sleep for a while, it's good, don't you have to go around looking for people to reclaim the waterways today, you still don't push yourself too hard."
Feng Xiaoyue nodded in response, supporting her body with both hands and slowly lying down, while Murong Lin stood up and helped tuck the quilt.
"I don't need you and me to worry about this matter, Brother Zeyuan is back, he has a lot of people in his family, and it is not difficult for me to ask him for help."
"Gu Zeyuan, when you come back from doing business outside, you must have made a lot of money." Feng Xiaoyue smiled casually, and then was very puzzled.
"But he's always been a guy who can't afford to make a profit, why did he take the initiative to come over and help this time?"
"Even so, he's my best friend. I still have a good relationship with my friend, and when you disappeared before, he also took the initiative to ask for help. I think he also thought that he had gained a lot of benefits from cooperating with you, and suddenly his conscience found out. ”
It was precisely when others were not here that Murong Lin could arrange a few words from him unscrupulously. Feng Xiaoyue, like him, couldn't help but laugh a few times, and after thinking about it, she raised her neck and asked again.
"Didn't you tell him the reason for my disappearance, about finding traces of the waterway?"
"Isn't that how it should be? If you want someone to help, it's better to hide it from others. Murong Lin felt that it was a matter of course, and Feng Xiaoyue also understood it instantly.
"No wonder," Feng Xiaoyue muttered a few words with deep meaning, the corners of her mouth hooked up with a playful arc.
The waterway is related to the livelihood of all the people in the domain, if Gu Zeyuan is at the forefront, not only can he occupy this convenience in advance, but also sell it well in the palace, maybe he will be able to obtain some additional privileges because of this.
It is really the mind of a businessman, and it is thoughtful. However, Gu Zeyuan is still a lot more pleasing to the eye than the disgusting Qi Yuanwai. With Gu Zeyuan here, he happened to be on the business line, and there was some suppression outside the alignment.
In this way, although Gu Zeyuan has a different mind, there are still benefits in the end, once the two parties arrive, the final benefit is himself, so it doesn't hurt to let him take some benefits.
"Since he has worked so hard and helped you wholeheartedly, you should not treat your friend badly when the matter is over."
"That's a good thing, but I'm afraid that if he wants any silver, I may not be able to afford it." Murong Lin's words made it clear that he used to deal with him.
Although selling poor sounds disgraceful, it is not harmful to be a hundred things.
As if he didn't expect him to be a person who would do such a thing, Feng Xiaoyue glanced at him in a daze, and suddenly laughed, "I'm afraid he won't ask you for these yellow and white vulgar things, just talk about it then." ”
"If he dislikes these things as mundane things, he will not be away from home all year round." Murong Lin shook his head, noncommittal to her words.
After the two exchanged a few more polite words, Murong Lin left and went back to his room. After resting for a while, Murong Lin had to continue to inspect the city, and after the inspection was completed, he could have time to explain Feng Xiaoyue's discovery to Murong Yu.
After noon, you have to organize people to choose a place to excavate, so that after calculation, you have a lot of things to do today. Murong Lin yawned and walked through the garden, and before he could enter the room, he saw Siben sleeping at the door.
I don't know if he waited all night, Siben's eyes were also a little blue, and there was a line of clear liquid flowing down the corner of his mouth, which made people disgusted, funny, and faintly pitiful.
"Get up, don't sleep here if you want to sleep, go back to your own room first." Murong Lin gently patted his head, and she slowly opened her eyes, her eyes still full of confusion.
"Lord Shizi, you are finally back, then I will go back first, and I will come over after I finish cleaning up."
"No need." Murong Lin refused, and almost sat back on the ground with four books that had gotten up halfway. "You also worked hard yesterday, and you will go out late today, so let's rest first, and I'll take you to have important things to do in the afternoon."
"Okay." Murong Lin took advantage of the fact that Siben didn't wake up, and his head was not very clear, so he deliberately said ambiguously. Siben thought about it for a while, but didn't find any clues, so he nodded and agreed.
So after three hours, he almost missed the lunch time in the small courtyard, and Siben was dizzy from the sun outside, so he suddenly got up and ran out, only to find that Murong Lin's room was already empty.
Realizing that he might have been deliberately broken away by Murong Lin, Siben inevitably felt a little sad in his heart. He slowly paced into the dining room, and before he could go in, Xiaoyun came over and pulled him aside again.
"Where did you go, no one gave him vegetables when the prince came over, I thought you ran outside to play and forgot to come back."
Siben looked at her with a stunned expression, and then turned his head to the side, and saw Murong Lin and Feng Xiaoyue eating in the center of the hall.
It turned out that he didn't go out, Siben smiled, "It's that I slept too late in the morning, so I accidentally missed the hour, and I'll go over." ”
"What?" The expression on Xiao Yun's face suddenly became incomprehensible to him, and she pulled Si Ben one by one
Stay, "Forget it, look at the way you look now, do you still need to go, let's just stay here obediently." ”
"I'm afraid that you don't know when you suddenly appeared, so Xiao Yu specially asked me to guard you at the door, so don't bother them anymore."
In the hall, Xiao Yu helped the two of them fill the soup, took a few steps back and stood on the side, and the corner of his eye made sure that Xiao Yu had brought people with him, and he was relieved.
"Things are going well today, can you ask how many people he has supported?" Feng Xiaoyue took the spoon and stirred it in the bowl casually twice, and the white steam rose from the soup noodles, and the faces of the smokers were a little warm.
She has always had a small appetite and doesn't like dry things, but she loves to taste these soups and waters.
"Naturally, it was smooth sailing, and he had been carefully watching the events of the previous few days in the back, and he didn't spread it much," Murong Lin, as a man, acted more heroically, picked up the bowl and took a sip first, and did not forget to mention the chopsticks to add a piece of cake to Feng Xiaoyue.
"Although my father has some complaints in his heart about why I took you out, he will not blame him, and when the matter is settled, let's go back to the palace again, so that his old man can rest assured."
"Okay." Feng Xiaoyue nodded hard, and what he sent was pumpkin-flavored glutinous rice cakes, which tasted sweet, but soft and delicious, and she was not very picky.
"As for manpower, with Gu Zeyuan's help, plus our original people, how long do you think it took for a hundred people to start working?" Murong Lin wiped his mouth, full of joy and wanted to hear her praise, who wanted Feng Xiaoyue to lower his head and think carefully.
"We don't need to dig another waterway, it has a direction in the first place, and the only thing we need to do is to fix it, so that the water doesn't seem to wash into the sand and scatter into a piece."
"As for opening the water source, I don't know how big the rocky top of that Feiya Mountain is, but with an axe and gunpowder, it takes half a month to work, and a hundred people should be enough."
Speaking of this, Feng Xiaoyue couldn't help but think of the kind of fat bird she encountered on Qiyun Mountain that day. According to the old tree, female fat birds can play the same role as gunpowder when they encounter high temperature and fire, and they think that they blew up the top of Feiya Mountain in the first place, and they also relied on the power of these birds.
And now the black on the market. Gunpowder, although it seems to be very powerful, is actually very dispersed, if you have the help of this fat bird, it will be a good help.
However, if there is a fat bird in his hand, the force cannot be controlled, and the entire summit of the mountain is blown up, and the spring water in the canyon gushes out, which will not cause another major flood after the great drought.
After thinking about it, Feng Xiaoyue shook her head in her heart, it was really the most reliable to use what she had at hand.
"But half a month is just the best idea, the places behind Yanwu City still need people from other cities to help, you can talk to the county commanders in those places and ask them to organize people to clean up."
"It doesn't take much effort, after sweeping the dust, it shouldn't be difficult to know which places are fragile and weak, and to pour and seal them with lime."
"That's true, but the victims of these places are obviously worse than our Yanwu City and Wanjiang City, I'm afraid that no one will be able to vacate it." Judging from Murong Lin's words, he should have had such thoughts.
