Chen Minjun wiped his sweat with a handkerchief, "Big niece, we have been in charge of this embankment in Xiayang Village for decades. If you rebuild it now, you can continue to use it for decades, and building a bridge can compare to it? ”

"Originally, I wanted to add a fence directly, but the embankment was so badly damaged that it was useless to just add a fence."

"If we don't build this embankment, build a bridge, and have no obstacles to stop the water, then the water will be allowed to flow down and drown the crops?"

Su Yu looked at the river flowing in front of her and shook her head, "Building a bridge is just for convenience, and it can also last for decades or hundreds of years." Moreover, to hold back the water, it is not only the levee that can be used as an obstacle. ”

"If you want to make good use of this river, so that it doesn't run out of dikes and doesn't flood its crops, wouldn't it be nice to dredge it?"

"Dredging?"

Su Mingui was not in a hurry to eat, and seeing that Su Yu had delivered the meal and still didn't leave, he set up a dragon gate formation with his fellow villagers, "What is it that doesn't repair the bridge and dredge it, Brother Chen, don't listen to her." It's just a little girl, and she hasn't read a book, how can she understand this? ”

Even if he has lived for decades, he doesn't know a better way, how can Su Yu know.

"Hey, Brother Su, I'm talking to my little niece, what are you talking about, I think what the little niece said makes sense." Chen Minjun waved his hand, "Niece, you go on, what kind of dredging method?" ”

Su Yu continued: "We have more than 100 people in Xiayang Village, hundreds of acres of fields, crops need water, laundry and cooking need water, and there are few wells and we need to carry water to eat. The Zimu River is so big, and the annual water flow is not small, which is enough for the people of our villages to eat and drink every day. ”

"Niece means ......"

"That's right."

Su Yu nodded, "It's to divert water and dredge the river." ”

"Water diversion? Dredging the river? A few big men were confused, but their hearts were hot, and they felt that what Su Yu said sounded reasonable.

They can't develop Xiayang Village, and they don't pay attention to this place from above, and the officials have changed one after another, each of them planting this and that according to their own will.

As a result, not only was the harvest bad, but several plots of sloping land were wasted. They can't grow much food every year, and naturally they can't even raise many chickens and ducks.

Now Su Yu said that the diversion of water and dredging the river can solve these problems? Seem...... Unlikely, right?

"Eldest niece, the water diversion you talked about, someone has thought about it before. But what if the water is diverted and the river channel is dredged, and the sediment is washed through? Won't it be clogged? ”

They are downstream here, and there is a lot of sediment, so if you let this water flow down to irrigate the crops, won't the sand follow?

"So, it's time to store water and sand."

"Storing water and sand?"

Chen Minjun and the others became more and more confused, and they knew the literal meaning, but after thinking about it carefully, they couldn't figure it out.

"Hmm." Su Yu took a closer look at the river water, "The water quality of our Xiayang Village is good and unpolluted, if it can be used, our village will be able to develop well." ”

"At least, every household can be the same as Shangyang Village, with food and meat, without worrying about food and clothing. Even, better than them. ”

This is also the purpose of her coming to deliver food today, she has to take a long-term view and plan early.

Those who can build the embankment here are the main laborers of the family, and they basically have a lot of weight in talking at home.

If we first give them a general idea of how to control the river, it will be much easier to manage it in the future.

She not only wants to make money by herself, but also really wants to drive the people of Xiayang Village to develop well, start from scratch, and beat the name of Xiayang Village.

If she makes a fortune and drives the whole village to get rich, she will naturally have a stronger backing in the future, based on the people of the whole village and the industry of the whole village.

Later, I didn't expect that when she encountered a very big trouble, when she was in a matter of life and death, the entire village and even Pingyang County really became her most powerful and strongest backing.

Chen Minjun and the others couldn't understand anything else, but the words 'development', 'rice and meat', and 'food and clothing' were in their ears, and their hearts were shocked.

"Big niece, what you said is true?" He held the hoe, his eyes lit up, "Can we really develop in Xiayang Village?" Better than Shangyang Village? ”
